Check out your horoscope for this week below:

Aries (March 21 to April 19)

Don’t be afraid to manifest your creative dreams and turn them into reality! You want to learn and discover more about the world, and you shouldn’t let anyone or anything stop you from doing so. Always stay true to yourself and your values, and be free to share your passions! Allow yourself this space to grow and become the person you’re meant to be.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

You may not realize this, but overworking yourself can cause you significant harm. You need to let yourself rest from time to time—not when you’ve already reached the point of burnout. You don’t have to rush through the process! Take it easy by planning your actions accordingly. Have patience; trust that you’ll get to where you need to be in time.

Gemini (May 21 – June 21)

Your obsession with perfection will only deplete your energy because you will never be satisfied with what you’re doing. Change this harmful mindset but refocusing on why you wanted to embark on this journey in the first place. Stop comparing your progress with that of other people because your path is your own. Everything takes time. Allow yourself the freedom to fail because it’s through mistakes that you can learn and grow.

Cancer (June 22 – July 22)

You just can’t seem to find the motivation to go where you need to, and your growing impatience isn’t helping either. If you’re petrified by the mounting self-doubt, you just need to refocus and figure out where exactly your passions lie. Nothing can ever go wrong with pursuing what you love and what gives you joy, after all. Be patient with yourself, take it slow, and give yourself the space to flourish!

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

You are making steady progress toward your goals and you shouldn’t second-guess your capability to overcome the challenges you may encounter. You are prepared for any possibility—good or bad! Don’t ever doubt yourself. Seize the opportunities that are coming your way!

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

Be wary of your impatience and reckless behavior because you might just end up making careless mistakes that could have been easily avoided. Think your decisions through and try not to be so reactionary. Let everything happen as they are meant to because you’ll soon find that things will work out for you eventually. Just have an open mind, stay positive, and keep moving forward.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Your tendency to put work above everything else will only hurt your physical, mental, and emotional health. You need to give yourself moments of rest so that you aren’t burning yourself out so quickly! Learn to prioritize instead of doing everything at once. At the same time, don’t allow your emotions to get the better of you. Believe that you are capable of facing these hard tasks and bringing your dreams to life!

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

Times may be changing but you need to trust that these are only happening for the betterment of your future. It’s normal to feel doubt and anxiety, especially amid the uncertainty, but you shouldn’t allow these feelings to keep you rooted to where you are. There are a lot of opportunities around you as long as you choose to see them. Ride the waves instead of resisting the pull! Clarity will come in time.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

Lots of opportunities are available to you and you can definitely manifest good fortune for your life. However, don’t let the promise of material wealth blind you to making rash decisions. You need to take things one step at a time to make proper sense of everything. Don’t burden yourself with other people’s problems either—they’re not your responsibility to bear! Focus on your own journey and just take it slow.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

You may be obsessed with work right now in the hopes of earning more material wealth, but you shouldn’t allow yourself to believe that financial riches will solve all your problems. Your fear of losing what you materially have will only hold you back from progressing in life. Security also means being free to enjoy your blessings from time to time! Don’t deprive yourself of joy.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

Be careful with the choices you make because not everything that seems like a great opportunity will benefit you in the long run. Objective thinking is needed as you look at the whole picture. Weigh out the pros and cons. Be clear on what your long-term visions are and choose only the path that will take you there.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

You may feel like you’ve been putting so much time and energy into something but aren’t getting the results you hoped for, and it can get demotivating and frustrating. You need to trust the timing of the universe. Ride the waves instead of fighting the tides. Life is a journey that you shouldn’t rush through. As long as you keep your eyes on the prize and maintain those strong intentions, nothing can stop you from getting to where you need to be.
