Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

Aquarius is described as a future spy, urged to keep smuggling innovative ideas into a world that may not yet be ready. The message emphasizes:

  • Embrace alienation as a source of treasure.
  • Spot patterns others miss by resisting consensus reality.
  • Tinker with impossibilities and imagine alternatives.

> “I love to see your boldness as you smuggle innovative ideas into a present that may or may not be ready for them.”

The sign is encouraged to honor boldness and remain a proof that inherited structures need not be inevitable.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – Mar. 20)

Pisces is told that the unconscious mind is extra communicative. Key actions include:

  • Pay attention to weird images in dreams and lingering songs.
  • Keep a journal or recording device by the bed.
  • Notice memories that rise from nowhere.
  • Be grateful for striking coincidences.

These steps invite Pisces to tune into meaningful feelings and truths that have been missed.

Aries (Mar. 21 – Apr. 19)

Aries receives advice from master astrologer Steven Forrest:

  • The riskiest strategy is to constantly seek safety.
  • Always look for adventure.
  • Cultivate courage, especially the boldness that emerges when exploring unknown territory.
  • Face fears regularly to rouse true magic.

The coming months are highlighted as an ideal time to dive into life’s adventures.

Taurus (Apr. 20 – May 20)

Taurus is portrayed as an ambassador between the material and spiritual realms. The guidance stresses:

  • The flesh is holy; pleasure is a form of prayer.
  • Sensual enjoyment is a sacred practice, not attachment.
  • Treat the body as a cathedral and sensual delights as sacraments.

The message encourages a subversive celebration of bodily experiences.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun. 20)

Gemini is urged to stop moving constantly so that the universe can deliver gifts:

  • Restlessness blocks boons from arriving.
  • Pause and tune into the quiet signal of the center.
  • When stillness is achieved, bounties begin to arrive.

The advice is to cultivate receptivity over restless roaming.

Cancer (Jun. 21 – Jul. 22)

Cancer is reminded of Louise Bourgeois’ declaration:

  • “I am what I do with my hands.”

The sign is encouraged to build structures, sanctuaries, and nourishment from sensitivity, proving that emotional depth can be a master builder rather than passive vulnerability.

Leo (Jul. 23 – Aug. 22)

Leo is told that beauty is woven into everyday life:

  • Infuse ordinary actions-washing dishes, answering emails, walking to the store-with artistic care.
  • Recognize that dramatic gestures are complemented by an underutilized talent for extracting glory from mundane tasks.
  • Start by turning a grocery list into a poem.

The guidance encourages a practice of beauty treatment in routine activities.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sep. 22)

Virgo is introduced to the concept of a potlatch:

  • Wealth is circulated, not hoarded.
  • The purpose of possessions is to enable others’ flourishing.
  • Embrace this logic as a specialty for the coming months.
  • Recognize that personal thriving depends on community vitality.

The advice invites Virgo to make generosity a core practice.

Libra (Sep. 23 – Oct. 22)

Libra is reminded of Rumi’s “treasure in ruins”:

  • Seek answers in neglected, ignored, and boring places.
  • Investigate unfinished business or situations that feel aversive.
  • The hypothesis is that a golden discovery may await in these overlooked spaces.

The sign is encouraged to explore the mundane for hidden riches.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

Scorpio is praised for intensity as a superpower:

  • Not everything deserves full force; some matters require light touch.
  • Distinguish between deep feeling and acting on every deep feeling as sacred revelation.
  • Recognize that some emotions are weather patterns, not permanent truths.

These understandings are highlighted as key for the coming days.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Sagittarius is told that everything related to togetherness is now possible:

  • “I will NEVER exaggerate.”
  • Dismantle outmoded beliefs about love, friendship, myths, conditioned responses, and inherited instincts.
  • Discover new dimensions of intimacy that can inspire forever.

The sign is encouraged to embrace continuous possibility.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

Capricorn is compared to a chiaroscuro phase in life:

  • Joys grow bright while doubts deepen.
  • Understanding deepens, perplexity mounts.
  • Anxiety may show what matters; sadness may signal growing emotional power.
  • Study contrasts closely to benefit from them.

Shadows are urged to teach how to fully appreciate illumination.
