Aries (March 21-April 19) You’re gaining clarity — it smells sweet and natural. Simplicity surrounds you in earthy tones.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You might imagine that you’re in Tuscany picking olives. Follow your daydreams wherever they take you.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Think of how a flame might slice the air. Think of how you can burst through the cloudiness that is hovering over you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You hold refracted light within you. Share it.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Sometimes plans crumble and break down into sand. This is a time to start fresh now that you’re back on the ground.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ve lost someone or something important. You don’t owe anyone anything right now.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You aren’t used to feeling stuck or stagnant. Try to use this as a time to truly look at yourself for who you are.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You may feel as if you’ve never been overwhelmed before. You experience things differently from others. Don’t let them take anything away from you.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Of course you feel things other than independence and adventure. But you need to show those other sides to the people that surround you. Don’t be afraid to show that you care.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You want so desperately to find a practical way out of whatever you’re going through. Now is the time to accept that some things are just illogical, and that maybe there’s something out there that doesn’t follow our system of logic.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You love to make people laugh. Maybe now is the time to step out of the spotlight and let someone else take the stage. Sometimes it’s more fun to be in the audience.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You have to admit that you lead others to believe that your situation was more intense than it actually was. Who cares. It’s all relative anyway.
