If you’ve been feeling down, this moment is ripe for finding the motivation you need to press on. Taking a collaborative or creative approach to coping with your stressors is the most effective way to deal with the more annoying parts of your life this week. Don’t be scared to ask for help or outside perspectives on your situation. Just don’t let other folks override your own insights, Taurus.

It’s hard to tap into your gut instincts when you're emotionally overwhelmed. This week your most important job is to connect with your heart. This is likely to require you to slow down and prioritize your wellness over external pressures. This may be a wake-up call to develop better boundaries or a reminder to put them in place. Be willing to let go of what does not serve you, at least for a little while, Twin Star.

This week you run the risk of falling into a negative frame of mind. On its own, that’s not so bad, but it may lead to you believing that things are worse than they are or that you have no resources to tap into to help you out. Take the time to notice the allies and assets that you have available to you, Moonchild. It will help to bolster your confidence and align you with the positive potential at play.

If you’ve taken on too much or are feeling particularly overwhelmed, it’s important that you heed your emotions, Leo. You may have a strong impulse to shake things up, but it’s not the way to go. Take care of your heart, and strive to cultivate some equilibrium before you take on anything else or try to smooth things over this week. While you can technically power through, it’s unlikely to improve matters. Work from the inside out.

You can control very little outside of how you participate. If you don’t have clear boundaries, you run the risk of getting pretty defensive this week. There's an important difference between rules and boundaries, as well as between judgment and discernment. Locate your needs and capacity, and express them in your relationships without the need to defend yourself, Virgo. Allow room for others to show up or not, and make your determinations from there.

If you’re feeling sad, that’s okay, Libra. The key is to understand not only your situation but also your own emotions and how they are playing themselves out in your life. You may need to take responsibility for the ways that you have participated, or you may need to get more realistic about how others have been behaving and what that really means to you. In any case, now is the time for getting real, even if it’s hard.

You run the risk of slipping into an anxious frame of mind this week, Scorpio. It might be best to spend some time alone, getting grounded and reflecting on where you’re at and what you need. The worst thing you could do is look to assign blame or obsess on where others are at. The most important thing isn’t how you got here; it’s what you’re going to do now that you are here.

If you’re trying to make a big-picture change in your life, you’re on the right track, Sagittarius. Just don't rush matters in such a way that you end up bullying or alienating the very people that you’re trying to win over. Listen as much as you speak, and be willing to compromise when needed. Who knows? Your vision may be improved by input from others. Create some space to receive feedback, and be open to what comes through.

Speak your heart, Capricorn. It’s important that you honor your truth enough to articulate it to others. Not only do they deserve to know what’s up for you, but you deserve to share your thoughts. Whether you’re building an empire, a relationship, or a new way of talking to yourself, this is an important time for finding ways of communicating that are as kind and patient as they are effective.

Inevitably in life, whether you like it or not, you’re going to have obligations that you have to meet. That said, it’s easy to tell yourself something is necessary when it’s really a choice. This week it’s important for you to identify what you’re choosing and why. This will increase your sense of freedom and agency, which every Aquarius loves, but it will also help you to see your options more clearly. Own your choices, Aquarius!

Putting yourself out there, even when you succeed, can land you with a vulnerability hangover. This week you may be experiencing anxiety as a result of something truly positive in your life. That can be confusing, but it’s also pretty normal. Before you seek to figure out why you’re feeling off, strive to get grounded and emotionally stabilized. In doing so you'll safeguard yourself from possible stress-induced projections, Pisces.
