♈ ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
Your reputation is getting a glow-up this week. The Venus-Saturn sextile on Wednesday supports professional commitments that actually stick—think contracts, partnerships, or finally getting serious about that career pivot. The New Moon on Sunday lands in your career sector, which is basically the universe RSVPing "yes" to your ambitions. Start the thing. Apply for the thing. Be the thing.

♉ TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
Venus trine Uranus on Thursday is your aspect, Taurus. This is the planet of love harmonizing with the planet of surprises in your sign. Translation: unexpected connections, delightful plot twists in relationships, or finally committing to something (or someone) you've been circling for months. The catch? You have to be open to it. Stop white-knuckling the plan and let something surprise you.

♊ GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
The Mercury-Mars conjunction supercharges your communication sector. Your words have teeth this week, use them wisely. This is powerful energy for negotiations, pitches, and finally having That Conversation you've been avoiding. But watch the edge. Sharp can become cutting if you're not careful. Say what you mean. Mean what you say. Don't say it mean.

♋ CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Venus moving through your partnership sector meets Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus in supportive aspects this week. If you've been wondering whether a relationship can go the distance, you're about to get your answer. The New Moon on Sunday asks what you're willing to build with someone else. Not in spite of them. With them.

♌ LEO (July 23 - August 22)
Your daily routines are about to become love languages. The Venus transits this week activate your work and health sector, making this an ideal time to commit to habits that actually serve you. Not punishment disguised as discipline—genuine care. The New Moon supports starting a new wellness practice, reorganizing your workspace, or finally hiring that help you've been too proud to ask for.

♍ VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
The creative downloads are coming in hot this week. Venus lights up your fifth house of creativity and pleasure before moving into your partnership sector. Translation: what you create this week could connect you to your people. Put the work out there. Say yes to the collaboration. Stop editing yourself into invisibility.

♎ LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
Venus is your planet, and she's working overtime this week. She makes supportive aspects to Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune before entering Aquarius and your fifth house of joy. This is permission to take your happiness seriously. Not as a reward for productivity. As a requirement for living. What would you do this week if fun wasn't a guilty pleasure?

♏ SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
The Mercury-Mars conjunction in your communication sector gives you the words to match your intensity. You've been holding something back—a truth, a plan, a confrontation. This week gives you the language for it. Just remember: the goal is to be heard, not to win. There's a difference.

♐ SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Money moves are favored this week as the Capricorn stellium activates your financial sector. The Venus-Saturn sextile supports long-term financial commitments—investments, savings plans, or finally having that salary conversation. The Mercury-Uranus trine could bring unexpected income. Stay alert to opportunities that don't look like opportunities at first glance.

♑ CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
This is your week, Capricorn. Venus, the Sun, Mercury, and Mars are all moving through your sign, and the New Moon on Sunday is your cosmic birthday party. This isn't about waiting for permission. It's about deciding what you want and building toward it with the kind of focus only you can sustain. The rest of us are just watching and taking notes.

♒ AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
Venus enters your sign on Saturday, beginning a transit that makes you magnetic in ways you can't quite control. People will be drawn to you—your ideas, your energy, your particular brand of weird. Use it. This is ideal energy for expanding your network, joining communities that align with your values, and letting yourself be seen without the protective armor.

♓ PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
The Venus-Neptune sextile is a dream-made-tangible aspect for you. Neptune is in your sign, and Venus is asking you to get specific about your visions. Not "I want to be happy" specific—"I want this exact thing by this exact date" specific. The New Moon supports behind-the-scenes work, rest, and spiritual practices. Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is be still.

The Three of Wands shows a Polar Bear standing on high ground, back to us, gazing out at three ships sailing toward the horizon. Three pieces of driftwood are planted firmly in the earth. The work has been done. The ships have been sent. Now comes the part nobody talks about: the waiting.

The Polar Bear is the master of the wait. They will sit motionless by a seal’s breathing hole for hours, ignoring the biting cold, waiting for a single moment of opportunity. It doesn't pace. It doesn't check its watch. It knows that if it has positioned itself correctly, the result is inevitable.

The Three of Wands isn't about passive hope. It's about positioned confidence. You've made your moves. You've launched what needed launching. Now your job is to hold your ground on that cliff, watch the horizon, and trust that what you've set in motion is making its way back to you.

The polar bear doesn't dive into the water to chase the seal. It waits for the seal to come to it.

The question: What have you already put in motion that simply needs time to arrive?

Forget the rulebook. When Venus moves into the sign of the rebel today, love gets an electric upgrade. The traditional "dinner and a movie" vibe is out; intellectual connection and shared visions of the future are in.

This transit shifts the energy from "serious commitment" to "serious fun." The possessiveness of the last few weeks evaporates, replaced by a need for freedom and breathing room. You’ll find yourself attracted to the weird, the wonderful, and the people who challenge your perspective rather than just agreeing with you.

How to use this energy:

The Bottom Line: Normal is boring. If it doesn't stimulate your brain, it won't hold your heart.

Before your resolution becomes another abandoned promise, it needs to answer one question:

Not if. When.

The gym will feel pointless on a dark February morning. The creative project will feel stupid at 2am when you're tired. The boundary will feel too hard to hold when someone you love pushes against it.

Your answer to this question is your actual resolution. The goal is just the headline.

Write it down. Put it somewhere you'll see it when the resistance shows up.

Example: Resolution: Write every day. Stress test answer: When I don't feel like writing, I'll write one sentence and forgive myself if that's all I have. One sentence still counts.

Your answer is your anchor. Find it before you need it.

It's Capricorn season, and five planets are currently in the sea-goat's sign. But not all Capricorn energy is the same. Which one are you this week?

A. The Mountain Goat You're climbing. You don't care if it's cold, steep, or lonely. You've got a summit in sight and nothing is stopping you. (Probably need a snack and some water, though. Don't forget to eat.)

B. The Sea Goat The mythological Capricorn is half goat, half fish—equally at home scaling heights and swimming depths. You're navigating between ambition and emotion this week, doing the practical thing while secretly processing something big underneath.

C. The Vintage Capricorn Think: timeless style, antique furniture, a savings account that actually has money in it. You're not chasing trends. You're building something that will still be standing in 20 years. Boring to some. Legendary to you.

D. The Reluctant CEO You didn't ask to be in charge, but here you are, and honestly? You're kind of killing it. This week is you accepting that you're good at this, even if you never planned to be.

E. The Goat Having a Normal One You're just trying to get through January with your routines intact. No grand ambitions. No existential breakthroughs. Just coffee, to-do lists, and maybe some peace and quiet. Valid.

Reply and tell us which one you are. We're genuinely curious.
