Aries (March 21-April 19)

When it feels like the world is against you, remember that you were born to fight. Your ruling planet, Mars, is the God of War, and you carry that fiery spirit in your heart even in the most difficult times. So don’t give up; just light the torch and continue on!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Don’t let your stubbornness and pride get the best of you when you’re struggling. Even the strongest, most independent people need help sometimes, and that’s perfectly alright. You’ve got a great support system waiting in the wings; all you need to do is ask for their assistance.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You may think that two heads are always better than one, but sometimes that isn’t always the case. When you find yourself plagued with problems, your instinct is to reach out to others and brainstorm an ideal solution. But multiple opinions can provide conflicting answers, so try to quiet your mind for once and listen to your heart. The most important answer to life’s problems often lies within.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

I know that you believe the walls you put around yourself will shelter you from the storm, but it merely creates a prison when the conflict lies within. When life feels like a constant struggle, that’s when it’s time to stop beating around the bush and explore the world outside your shell. You just might find that openly communicating your needs ultimately leads to happier days again.

Leo (July 23-August 22)

Don’t let your thirst for fame and fortune cause you to lose sight of what really matters in life, especially when times get tough. Even the boldest leaders need some rest and relaxation, so allow yourself some time to recharge when life becomes too much. It won’t cost you your status to take a break, and in the end it will help you feel better about both the present and the future.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)

Although the world seems like it’s crashing down around you, the truth is that it’s probably not. You’ve merely spent so much time overthinking every detail of your life that one small inconvenience feels like the end of it all. Just take a deep breath and relax for a moment; it’s going to be alright.

Libra (September 23-October 22)

Sometimes the best way to battle depression is with a little self-care. Perhaps the reason why you feel you feel so dysregulated is because you’re taking on everyone else’s problems for the sake of harmony. Carve out some time for your needs, too. Remember, you can’t fill from an empty cup.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)

It’s time to quit bottling up your emotions. Seriously, let them out! Once you share what’s bothering you with a trusted friend or therapist, you’ll feel a little lighter. And who knows? Maybe that trusted confidant will hold the light you need to climb out of the darkness again.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)

When you feel the walls closing in around you, it’s time to break free. Your optimism can never be crushed, and your wandering spirit can never truly be tied down. If you feel like all hope is lost, spend some time outside reconnecting with nature and searching your heart for answers. You’ll find your happy place again soon; just hold on.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19)

Although your residence is admirable, sometimes it keeps you bogged down in the gloom and doom. If you’re feeling hopeless, stop and rest for a while. When’s the last time you took a break from working hard and kicked back with your friends? Allow yourself just one night of fun, and I’m certain the world will start looking bright again real soon.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18)

When life starts to feel overwhelming, it’s always best to start by tackling something small. Although you love to focus on the big picture and live life in large brush strokes, that kind of radical thinking can really wear you down. Go back to the foundation, focus on your core, and the fog you feel around you will soon lift.

Pisces (February 19-March 20)

I know that when times get tough, you feel completely helpless. But I’ll let you in on a little secret: that’s not the case at all. Instead of allowing the current to sweep you downstream, let’s try a new approach. Dig deep and find your inner strength; it’s just what you need to overcome this difficult moment.
