GEMINI
Youve never let others labels truly limit who you can be and what youre capable of. In fact, if someone tells you youre too young, too (fe)male, too anything, youll usually go out of your way to prove them wrong. Whats astonishing, ironically, is the way youll let self-imposed definitions restrict you in ways youd never otherwise allow. These labels (and their artificial limitations) are no more valid than the ones you rightfully reject when they come from others. But you believe in them nevertheless. Take a step outside yourself and realize theyre just as worthy of rejection and contradictionthen the next time you almost decide theres something you cant do, go out of your way to prove yourself wrong.
CANCER
If you were to cut apart your clothing, and recombine it into new pieces incorporating several of the original items, youd mostly end up with a messy patchwork jumblebut probably a couple really cool, original things that were far superior to what you started with.This week, your semi-random experimentation is likely to result in a whole lot of chaff, but a couple sparkling gems.Thats just how it is sometimes. Have faith that these rare treasures make all the wasted time and resources worthwhile. Sometimes squandering your energy and stuff is the only way to get to that good shitthis week, my dear, is one of those times.
LEO
Biting off more than you can chew has often been your modus operandi. Usually, youre able to rise to the challenge and become a better, stronger, and more capable person. However, you frequently rely on others to help you out before youre fully capable of carrying solo the burden youve taken on. Make sure you notice and appreciate these people.They want only the best for you, and are rooting for you to keep growing and learningbut theyll grow resentful if you dont recognize and show appreciation for the role theyve assumed in that process.This week, make sure you do exactly that.
VIRGO
What, ultimately, are you complaining about? What happened to not sweating the small stuff? I suspect the only reason this shit is bugging you to this degree is because youre not keeping yourself busy enough, so your hyperactive brain is generating drama to keep you busy.Virgos require a ton of activity, and while its good to have some relaxation and downtime (manyVirgos fail to give themselves enough), having too much leads to problems that arent really problems. Get busy.
LIBRA
Your next best step may very well be changing from minute to minute in this dynamic situation. Dont get too committed to one particular course of action. Because things are shifting very quickly right now, you need to be flexible, open-minded, and perceptive. Be light on your feet and ready to skip left, jump up, or turn around any second, depending on whats thrown at you. And dont be married to dodging those bullets.You could catch, deflect, or transform them before they hit you, instead. Be creative.This is a test of your emotional elasticity and reflexes, one youre ready for.The only way you could fail is by being excessively lazy or stubbornso, you know, dont be.
SCORPIO
Whatever youre pursuing, whether a job, a lay or a new opportunity, you have two main strategies you could be trying: cast a wide net, or use a focused approach. Asking out everyone at the bar may yield you a datesurely someone would take you up on it, right? Alternatively, if youre good at picking your target and really giving it your all, you might achieve similar results. So lets assume that either approach will yield equivalent outcomes. How do you decide whats best? Easy. Ask yourself this question: Which one best reflects who I am (or who I want to be)?
SAGITTARIUS
While paying the prices youre stuck with now, try to remember all the virtual bargains you got along the way.This isnt some forget the recessed economy bullshitIm talking about karma here. Youve had it pretty good until recentlythe shit you have to deal with of late isnt such a big deal in the context of all the lucky breaks you had leading up to it.These consequences may not be a direct result of your past (shit just happens, after all); but if you weigh them against it, youre still coming out ahead. So quit your bitching, suck it up and cope, with grace and gratitude.
CAPRICORN
Own your desires. Recognize when theyre absurd or unusual, but dont be embarrassed by them. Thatll just bite you in the ass. Lets say for example you had a fetish you wanted to suggest to your partner; if you present it in a playful tone of silly fun, you two might go there; shared like a shameful confession makes it much less likely.Whoever you are and whatever you want is just fine, as long as it doesnt hurt anyone.Theres really no reason to be embarrassed about it. Name and claim your needs and wantsthen go get them taken care of.
AQUARIUS
The challenge before you doesnt require strength, intelligence, social skills, musical aptitude, mathematical genius, or a graduate degree. All you need to succeed here is concentration, persistence and willpower. Unfortunately, even though you have smarts and talent in spades, youre sometimes lacking in the kind of mental focus and stubbornness this task requires of youyoure all too easily distracted. Of course, this situation is precisely what youve been (unconsciously) asking fora real challenge outside of your comfort zone. Even if its not really what you expected (by definition it could hardly be that), I full expect you to rise to the challenge anyway.
PISCES
Your kindhearted nature sometimes causes more pain than your most malicious impulses (which, admittedly, are rarely that cruel).Your undoubtedly good intentions, when not properly married to reality, can inspire tremendous disappointment and misery. Be careful about that this week. What you wish was the case isnt necessarily so, and pretending otherwise could cause needless heartache. Be brutally realistic with yourself, and honest about the situation with the others involved. It may feel harsh and unpleasant to do so, but ultimately its much kinder than leading others (and yourself) on, only to disappoint them after youve inflated their hopes further.
ARIES
Notoriously, Rams overload themselves.Youll not only burn your candle at both ends, but youll snap it in half and burn those newly created ends, too. Naturally, you know thats not sustainable. If you decide to go there, make sure you have a beginning, middle, and end to your plan of action. A light at the end of the tunnel will go a long way towards helping you actually get thereif it seems to go on forever, however, no one would blame you for just giving up.This week, create the possibility for an end to this particular chapterone that will give you the strength of will to actually get there.
TAURUS
Aim for your frustration.Where theres intense emotion, theres something interesting and powerful. Instead of fleeing from whats been getting your goat, head towards it instead. Figure out why its bothering you and what you can do to make the situation better for all concerned (other than walking away).Tap into that angst, and redirect it. If you can successfully transform this maddening scene into one that brings joy (or at least serenity), just think what you can do for other challenging areas of your life.This is a big step in your self-evolution and your perception of lifes problems. Dont try to avoid or escape it. Nail it, instead.
