Things are a bit rocky at the start of the week with the moon heading into a harsh square with Saturn on the 26th bringing up blocks, limitations and humbling decisions. Then on the 27th, the moon meets up with aggressive Mars—an aspect that correlates as much with passion as it does with emotional gut punches. Though your feelings might be all-consuming, they aren’t necessarily facts. Wait before acting on your emotions.

The good news is that once we get through Monday, the rest of the week is smooth sailing. Blissful even! The good vibes peak on the 2nd when sweet Venus conjoins expansive Jupiter in Aries—a once annual auspicious meeting of the two benefic planets. On the same day, communication planet Mercury joins steady Saturn, helping us to put words to all the growth we’ve experienced in our ideas and values with Saturn in Aquarius since March 2020 (which we should all be able to admit is a lot). Later that same day, Mercury glides into Pisces—a dreamy placement found in the charts of risk-taking romantics like Heath Ledger, Lady Gaga and Isabelle Huppert. If you can’t find the right words, why not sing your thoughts instead?

(Horoscopes follow for each sign. If you know your rising sign, reading for that sign too will provide further insight.)

Aries
(March 21 - April 19)

Whether you’re annoyed by everyone else’s Housewives takes or tired of seeing vacation pics while you’re stuck at work, the vibe at the top of the week is to ignore your group chat and put your phone on DND. Things turn around on the 2nd though when lovely Venus and joyous Jupiter have their once annual meetup in your sign. Get a facial! Relax! You look good!

This week’s mantra: “Me.”

Cheeky illustration of a young non-binary person petting a bull.

Taurus
(April 20 - May 20)

Money stress has you feeling down at the top of the week. You might be working through debts or in a loop of compare and despair. Luckily by the 2nd, you’re feeling much more capable of letting it all go and keeping your eyes on your own paper. More responsibilities at work keep you feeling productive and accomplished through the end of the week.

This week’s mantra: “Prize.”

Cheeky illustration of identical twins with long dark hair and a statement earrings back-to-back, smirking at each other.

Gemini
(May 21 - June 20)

You might be making something into a way bigger deal than it actually is. It’s so easy to take things personally, but more often than not, that friend or coworker or even that frenemy means no harm. Thankfully on the 2nd, you get the chance to connect with your community doing something you really love. Go where it feels expansive.

This week’s mantra: “Spirit.”

Cancer
(June 21 - July 22)

The week begins with you feeling both moody and low-key happy to stay off of everyone’s radar. But by the 2nd, you’re feeling rested, recovered, and ready to put yourself out there! This is an auspicious day for a job interview, important meeting with your boss or night out with friends. Let yourself be seen and celebrated!

This week’s mantra: “Breakthrough.”

Leo
(July 23 - Aug 22)

Conflicts with coworkers or friends make things aggravating at the top of the week. So by the 28th, you’re ready to check out and take some space for yourself. This is a great week to dig into a research project, plan a trip or just read a book for once. If you’ve been applying to schools or jobs, you could get some good news on the 2nd!

This week’s mantra: “Faith.”

Cheeky illustration with a light blue background of a woman wearing a coral shirt coyly poking out from behind her hands.

Virgo
(August 23 - September 23)

Stress at work may feel overwhelming at the top of the week. Try not to take your boss’s mood swings so personally. As much as it might ruffle your feathers, all the dramatics are not about you. Things clear up later in the week when you head to happy hour with your coworkers less to air out your frustrations, and more just to have a good time!

This week’s mantra: “Release.”

Libra
(September 23 - October 21)

You feel pressure this week to put something out in the world. Are you doing this because you have something to share? Or do you just feel obligated to prove your worth? Whether you go for it or not, the latter half of the week brings some amazing opportunities to connect with both romantic and business partners.

This week’s mantra: “Together.”

Scorpio
(October 22 - November 21)

You know those overdue taxes that you were supposed to deal with back in August? If you still haven’t touched those, you might begin the week in a stress haze, on deadline to get them done. Whether you finish it or not, relief comes on the 2nd, particularly in regards to work, fitness and the daily grind. What once felt difficult now feels simple. Bask in that.

This week’s mantra: “Catharsis.”

Cheeky illustration of a Black woman with purple hair on an orange background. She's in a wearing jean jacket, with a quiver strapped across her back and arrows sticking out.

Sagittarius
(November 22 - December 21)

You begin the week in one of your famous moods, that low-energy place where you feel like everyone’s out to get you. Even your partner! Even your besties! Luckily things turn around quickly, and by the 2nd, you’re in a totally different headspace. Enjoy some creative inspiration, romantic bliss or much needed quality time with your kids!

This week’s mantra: “Fortune.”

A cheeky image of a woman of color with dark hair holding a pink goat by the horns. The background is pink and her shirt is darker pink.

Capricorn
(December 22 - January 19)

You begin the week feeling beyond overwhelmed with all the work you have to do to get your house in order. Whether you’re hosting, selling, or just desperate to finally get things organized, by the 2nd, your space is beautifully transformed. Why not take a bath in your freshly scrubbed tub? Enjoy your peace!

This week’s mantra: “Temple.”

Cheeky image of a Black woman with blue hair on a light blue background. She's holding blue water in her palms, which is bubbling up and taking shape as her hair.

Aquarius
(January 20 - February 18)

Whether you’re dealing with a teething baby or a stressed out teen in the thick of SAT prep, you start off the week feeling overwhelmed with your parenting duties. Luckily things calm down by the 28th when you’re finally able to get back into a flow. Then on the 2nd, a walk and talk around the neighborhood with a friend gets you inspired and excited about the future.

This week’s mantra: “Circle.”

Cheeky illustration of a gender-fluid white person with short-cropped orange hair. They're wearing a light blue halter top as two bright pink koi fish circle their head.

Pisces
(February 19 - March 20)

Something feels off as the week begins. You’re not quite sure what it is, but you can feel it in your gut. If you can’t shake the restlessness, a high intensity workout (or even just more movement than usual) helps you shake off some of the bad vibes. Things shift for the better on the 28th though, and on the 2nd you get some great news about money! Hold on! It will get better!

This week’s mantra: “Security.”
