As we enter the final week of Pisces season, the cosmos urge us to reflect on emotional progress — or, conversely, setbacks — we’ve experienced in the last few weeks. While the stars certainly don’t suggest self-deprecating rumination, they do indicate a need for positive reflection. The hills and valleys we traverse aren’t just exercises to fortify our perseverance. Each ascent and subsequent dip provides invaluable learning experiences.

Early in the week, the new Moon offers some much-needed emotional downtime to process, analyze, and create a game plan for the way forward. Energy will increase as the Moon slowly begins to wax through the 7th House of Relationships, 8th House of Reincarnation, and 9th House of Philosophy.
How will you use this vivacity to your advantage? Find out how your sign will fare this week.

You can drag your heels all you want, but like it or not, the universe is pushing you in a new direction. All this resistance is doing is wearing you down, and rest assured, Aries: there’s still a long way to go. As tempting as it might be to dive into a rabbit hole of guilty pleasure-type behaviors and habits, the stars propose you try a different route on the cusp of the new season.Â
Don’t be so quick to write something off because it didn’t immediately sell you. How many other things in your life required a period of acclimation? Why would this be any different? You don’t have to move down this path blindly. By all means, keep your eyes open as you move forward. But be sure to keep your heart open, too, Aries.
Great prosperity is on your horizon, Taurus. Now’s not the time for hemming and hawing. Shake off your self-doubt in any way you can. Consult supportive loved ones, write down your game plan so you can clearly see your past and upcoming work — anything that will help reacquaint yourself with your original goals and dreams. You’re in the home stretch now.
This part of your journey might not be the most glamorous, but the cosmos indicate that it will be the most productive. Keep a close eye on your finances this week. Be sure you’re putting your resources toward people, things, or endeavors that will help realize your goals, not pull you further away from them.
We’re often quicker to sweep family problems under the rug in an effort to keep the peace. But then what? You’re left with a lumpy rug that digs into your feet as a reminder of your heart’s unrest? Yes, confronting close loved ones with grievances can be more daunting than a friend or coworker. However, that’s exactly why it’s imperative that you try.
Sometimes, the comfort and familiarity of these connections blind us to the boundaries we’re crossing. You’re well within your rights to deliver a reminder of yours if it seems like someone has forgotten. There is a way to handle this tension without burning a bridge. But it isn’t going to be your current method of ignoring and inaction.
Moderation is a form of self-discipline that requires constant practice, Cancer. As convenient as it would be for us to reach a phase of total enlightenment that negates the need for reflection and growth, such a transition doesn’t exist. Moreover, would you want it to? What sort of nirvana could come from a place of immobility — even if it seems positive on paper?
As your ruling celestial body swings through relationship-focused Houses of the Zodiac, the cosmos urge you to consider your place in the world. Are you overloading your obligations to other people because you want them to like you? Which of your own needs or goals are you ignoring by doing so? Take some time to reflect on your answers this week.
Be wary of the sparkly sheen a new person, goal, or idea can create. Motivation is one thing. Recklessness is another. The cosmos urge you to keep an eye on your inner fire this week. Keep it burning, of course, but don’t let it grow into an uncontrollable blaze. This will be especially difficult as your ruling body, the Sun, shifts from a water to a fire placement.
Difficult or not, this exercise is a worthwhile one to incorporate into your weekly routine. An opportunity to realize your dreams more fully will present itself to you this weekend. Be sure that your head isn’t so far above the clouds that you don’t see it when it comes along, Leo.
Just because you’ve lost sight of what is most important to you doesn’t mean that you can’t get it back. More importantly, this isn’t an indication that you did something wrong. It’s normal to get swept up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The hardest part is identifying when this redirection happens, and you seem to have already conquered that step.
Don’t underestimate the power of taking even a small increment of time — five, ten, or even a few minutes — to jot down the values and habits to which you’d like to return. Even the relatively simple act of getting these ideas out of your head and onto paper has more transformational power than you think.
As inspirational as your giving nature is, the stars recommend you return some of that graciousness to yourself this week. If you really can’t get over the hump of feeling self-centered by doing so, consider it a favor to others. By continuously overextending yourself, eventually, you’ll have no energy for anyone — not yourself or those around you.
The solutions you seek are not as hidden as they seem. Your subconscious has likely been trying to deliver this message for a while now. It’s time for you to become more receptive to its call. Pay close attention to your internal cues. They’ll lead you down the right road.
Our mental, physical, and emotional well-being inevitably bleeds over into every part of our lives. If something is off-kilter, other imbalances will soon follow. Thus, it’s imperative that you stop putting off improving your health, Scorpio. The longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to start. At this point, you’re only doing yourself a disservice.
You already know which factor of your well-being is suffering the most. The stars urge you to take whatever steps you can, no matter how small, in a direction towards fixing it. You don’t have to solve this dilemma in one day. Slow and steady is the name of this game. Chip away at it a bit at a time, and you’ll likely be surprised at how much easier the process becomes.
A lack of thorough information can quickly make a mountain out of a molehill, Sag. We’re creatures of habit, and the safety of familiarity often leads us to avoid the shadows and stick with what we know. When we collect new intel and educate ourselves on these new concepts and ideas, this insight acts as a flashlight, washing away the darkness that has paralyzed us.
The stars indicate it’s time for you to switch on that flashlight. Take some time this week to dive into a new project, interest, or relationship. Gather all the insight you can so that you can make a wiser decision on how to proceed when the time comes. You’re not as stuck as you think. You’re just in need of some extra info.
Not every problem can be solved by logic, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. Perhaps this impasse requires you to set aside the rational part of your brain and lean on the less rational (but more empathetic) parts of yourself. After you establish a strong emotional connection, the mental logistics will fall into place more easily.
Be wary of cementing yourself into a victim’s mindset, Cap. You aren’t the only one who wants other people to acknowledge your needs and ways of thinking. Life is all about giving a little here, taking a little there, and right now, it would appear that you’re in the former phase. You don’t have to overextend yourself. But can you meet them in the middle?
Just because the path you’re on isn’t the one you had originally planned for doesn’t mean you’re headed in the wrong direction. Not even the best laid plans are immune to the chaotic nature of the universe. After the cosmos have laid out their cards, there’s little we can do besides learn how to go with the flow. And that’s precisely what the stars are urging you to do this week.
Rather than taking this as an affront to your ego, use this situation to bolster it. Who better to improvise a new plan on the fly than you, creative Aquarius? Who better to enter the unknown with vigor and curiosity? This isn’t a punishment. It’s an opportunity. Start treating it like it.
The Sun has remained under your constellation for weeks now, and the time for it to restart its crawl through the Zodiac wheel is fast approaching. Don’t waste this energy while you have it. What problem areas — or, conversely, strong points — has the past month revealed to you? As we inch closer toward the start of a new season, what will you do with these insights?
As the Sun conjoins with your ruling planet, Neptune, one last time before its crossover into nearby Aries, the cosmos offer you one more opportunity to reflect on what you’ve learned. Life’s experiences are made worthwhile by what we make of them. Don’t let all of the highs and lows you went through be for naught, Pisces.
