Your Horoscope This Week
More stories from Molly Murphy
Aries (March 21-April 20) Make sure you have a plan of action before you carry out decisions. Don’t quit your job if you don’t have a new one lined up. Don’t pursue a new relationship if you haven’t formally cut ties with the last one. It can be frustrating to be stuck in a situation, but don’t rush when getting out of it. You could be creating a whole new mess down the road.
Taurus (April 21-May 21) Stop taking your family for granted. However you define family, these are the people who have never turned their backs on you. You can’t turn your back on them now. Life is short and there will come a time when you don’t have your family anymore. Appreciate, love, and support them while you can.
Gemini (May 22-June 21) Creativity is at an all time high this week, so use that energy to create something you’d never consider otherwise. Take risks. Ignore your inner critic and create just for the pleasure of creating. Revision is a worry for tomorrow.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) You will have to deal with some disappointing news this week. Try not to let a tough phone call or a bad grade affect your performance for the rest of the week. Keep yourself busy and don’t burden your friends with a constant pity party. Vent if you need to, but you’ll need to buck up and move on.
Leo (July 23-August 21) You can be extremely persuasive when you have all your facts together. Your views will be challenged this week and you’ll be put on the spot to defend them. Keep calm and remember why you’re passionate about those views to begin with. You can handle this, but keep Google open to fact check!
Virgo (August 22-September 23) It seems like you’ve got too many cooks in the kitchen when it comes to just about everything in your life. Your hair, clothes, grades, major, and hobbies are all up for scrutiny. You’ll be feeling very doubtful of yourself, but remember that it’s your life. Find the courage to tell those hovering cooks to buzz off and do what makes you happy.
Libra (September 24-October 23) Your confidence is soaring this week due to a change in appearance. You likely haven’t felt positive in a long time, so take advantage of this confidence boost to take on a big challenge. Silly as it seems, sometimes a spring haircut is all that you need to shake off the winter blues.
Scorpio (October 24-November 22) Your mind has been sitting idle for a while, so you might need to start finding new challenges or hobbies to pursue. The brain is a muscle and it doesn’t get any exercise when you’re on autopilot. Consider how you can make your routine a little more interesting.
Sagittarius (November 23-December 22) You might feel frustrated over what you perceive as your inability to meet a goal. To put this gently, you can always lower the bar. This isn’t to say you should abandon your big goal of starting a company or losing 50 pounds, just that you should break that goal into smaller steps. Meeting little goals is much easier and doesn’t discourage you either. It all leads back to the big goal anyway!
Capricorn (December 23-January 20) You can be too passive sometimes and this allows people to trample all over you. Being humble is admirable, but only to a certain point. Protect your ideas and defend them. Don’t let others take credit for your work. Advocate for positions you believe in. No cause is too small.
Aquarius (January 21-February 19) You could be getting nostalgic this week for times or people that truly weren’t good for you. Remember that you’re on the path for much greater things now. Focus on living in the moment and don’t let the past consume you. Try getting involved with your more immediate community to let go of those negative memories.
Pisces (February 20-March 20) This week, you’re going to want to shut out the world and be alone with your thoughts. You’re a highly introverted person so don’t feel bad for wanting some quality time with yourself. Make some time to recharge and do something relaxing. Don’t push yourself into social situations you’re uncomfortable with. You’ll be miserable there, so just take the time off. You’ll be glad you did.
