Welcome to the first day of February!
Read the horoscopes for your rising, Sun, and Moon signs for advice on how not to get swallowed.
Aquarius
(Jan. 20-Feb.18)
We’re halfway through your season, and it’s time to put some working hours into the goals you’ve set. When your ideas are just ideas, remaining in your head or floating in passing conversation, they don’t do anybody much good. Give yourself something to dive into that makes you excited to wake up and embrace each day, starting today.
Pisces
(Feb.19-March 20)
It will be easy for you to really dwell on your mistakes today and use them as fuel to criticize your character. You have come too far to indulge in this behaviour, Pisces. Loving yourself, through whatever mistake, is the best response you can have. You can’t change the past, but you can always do better next time. Focus on how you will curate your future responses and then move on.
Aries
(March 21-April 19)
There is some behaviour or belief about what you can and cannot do that needs to be let go. You’re keeping yourself from growing, and truly understanding and utilizing your power, by continuing to entertain it. It can be comforting to set false limitations and keep yourself small, but eventually you will get bored, and have to face this belief in order to get to the next level. Face and rid yourself of it, now, so you can continue to evolve and succeed as you deserve.
Taurus
(April 20-May 20)
The power struggle between who you used to be, how you used to spend your time, and what you used to want, and where you are now with all of these things, my become uncomfortably palpable for you, today. It’s a test. You left your comfort zone because it was becoming uncomfortable to act like you still belonged there, and there is no place for you to run back to. Embrace the complexity of the transition you are in and try to act in accordance with your current values.
Gemini
(May 21-June 21)
You may come into conflict with how other people do things and how they think you should act and create, today. Let their opinions and judgements roll off your back. As long as you are happy with your pace and process of doing things, there is no reason to put stock into other people’s projections of their insecurities. Be as much of a mirror for them as you can, and then keep it pushing.
Cancer
(June 22-July 22)
Your stamina and consistency may be hard to maintain, today. All that is required of you is that you do what you can. Becoming discouraged or down on yourself and throwing the whole day away won’t help anyone. When you get discouraged, make a list of what you can do, cross those things off, one by one, and celebrate your accomplishments as you achieve them. The difficulty of today is really up to you.
Leo
(July 23-Aug. 22)
Today is a test of how you will handle things when they don’t go your way. How will you handle yourself? Will you choose to direct your energy to frustration and shame, or will you give yourself time to process and move on, lesson learned? Either way, aim for self-compassion and optimism whenever you can and you may just start a pattern of response you can be proud of.
Virgo
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
The time you spend in solitude will tell you a lot about where your head’s at, right now. Attempt to make space for this much-needed clarity so that you can properly address and redirect it, if necessary. If you choose to just power-through, today, and become consumed by distraction you may discover that tension in your body and emotional upset manifests as a result. Do your best to address it before it gets to this point and let yourself be where you are.
Libra
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Some tension and resentment within your relationships may bubble to the surface, today. Let it. This can be an important purging process that moves your connection to the next level, or helps you make a decision about if that relationship is still healthy and worth it to you. Be honest about how you feel and what you want to do about it and don’t back down just because it gets difficult. You’re doing the right thing, Libra.
Scorpio
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You’re being asked to pick up speed, right now. For this to be a sustainable effort, it will require you to be really honest about what tasks and commitments come most easily to you; which you are able to do without overthinking and becoming frustrated with timing and detail. Directing your power strategically is not weak, and it’s not giving up, it’s working smart. Let yourself focus on what you can do and worry about the rest when you have some extra energy to exert.
Sagittarius
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today is not the day to neglect your bodily needs. Your need for rest, food, hydration, and limitations on strenuous activity should be front-and-center. You think you get a lot done when you ignore your body and the signals it sends you for what it needs? Imagine the productivity and sustainable growth you could maintain if you committed to taking care of yourself, first. Start prioritizing your wellness, today, and maybe make a plan for how you can make this a forever thing.
Capricorn
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
If any of your actions have been out of line with your integrity, recently, they may come back to face you, today. Be careful not to dwell in denial or get too defensive. Everyone makes mistakes. Own up to them and move on. On the flip side, the actions you have taken to truly take charge and commit in your life will reward you, today. Accept both occurrences with grace and use them as reference for how you want to move forward.
