The Risk You Need To Take This Summer, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

Erik Dungan

Aries: March 21st – April 19th

This summer you need to sign up for a class or workshop, whether it’s a class on how to make the perfect summer cocktails or a coding class once a week. Take this summer and use it to better yourself in some way that will leave those around you impressed.

Taurus: April 20th – May 20th

This summer is the perfect time to ask for that raise or promotion you’ve been thinking about. You work hard and there’s no reason you shouldn’t be compensated for all those extra hours you’re putting in (especially in summer). Take the risk and soak up the reward.

Gemini: May 21st – June 20th

This summer you should be ballsy when it comes to dating. You need to step out of your comfort zone because you have big things coming. If you’re already in a hot and heavy relationship you should focus more time on yourself. Do something you wouldn’t usually consider and book a trip to somewhere exotic to sip pineapple drinks and enjoy yourself.

Cancer: June 21st – July 22nd

Your job is a drag, isn’t it? You know what’s coming next don’t you? That’s right – QUIT! Apply for those jobs you think you’re unqualified for because that isn’t your decision to make. Quit dragging your feet through an outdated office, your future self will thank you for it.

Leo: July 23rd – August 22nd

If you don’t take a break from your structure and same-old-same-old routine this summer I’m going to scream. Seriously. Take a risk and start adding a little creativity to your life. I get deadlines are important but adding a guitar lesson, or paint and sip night, or a dance class won’t kill you. Also, ask that person who is weighing on your mind on a date!

Virgo: August 23rd – September 22nd

This summer start selling yourself. That photography you have as a side hobby or all that yoga you love so much start making a profit off of it. These days you can make money off anything and everything so start making an extra income off the things you already do for free. It might take some money upfront but once you get rolling it will be a risk you’ll be glad you took.

Libra: September 23rd – October 22nd

Take a risk this summer by doing something you’ve always wanted to do. Ahem, SKYDIVING! Sign up and show up because it’s about to be an adrenaline overload.

Scorpio: October 23rd – November 21st

This summer take a risk and go travel the way you’ve always wanted to. Buy a plane ticket, go to a foreign country and just immerse yourself in it for the time you’re there. Don’t worry about what you’re missing at home and live in the moment. It will change your life.

Sagittarius: November 22nd – December 21st

Take a risk by putting yourself first. This doesn’t make you selfish but seriously it’s time to stop prioritizing everyone else. This summer do things that YOU want to do and if someone wants to do something you don’t want, let them know. It’s okay to not agree with everything and it will be empowering to have your voice heard.

Capricorn: December 22nd – January 19th

If you don’t start an Etsy shop this summer you will never do it. For real, it’s time to start recognizing the talents you have and discover that people love what you do. Don’t sell yourself short by not profiting off your work.

Aquarius: January 20th – February 18th

Take a risk by showing off your work, your voice, your creative side. The world is more supportive than you think and there’s always a block button for those dip shits who love to hate (it’s not you, they just hate themselves).

Pisces: February 19th – March 20th

Take the risk this summer and start upgrading your life. Get that new car so you stop driving around that POS that keeps shaking every time you drive down the highway. Put a down payment on that dream house. Upgrade your life. It will save you a headache and a half. Don’t worry you will figure out the money. Thought Catalog Logo Mark
