Aries – Mar 21 to Apr 19
You are ruled by the red planet, Mars. Mars gives you the confidence and competitive drive that makes you a natural leader. It also makes you prone to passionate outbursts, be they aggressive or sexual in nature. Channel these forces productively and you are unstoppable.
Taurus – Apr 20 to May 20
You and Libra share the ruling planet of Venus, the most relationally-oriented planet, controlling your pleasures and desires. You, sensual Taurus, have indulged in a long string of relationships that have each fully served your desires in a unique way. Listening to and fulfilling your desires are not a bad thing; just make sure you’re not using others to do so.
Gemini – May 21 to Jun 20
You and Virgo share the same ruling planet of Mercury, the planet driven by communication and intellect. This makes you unendingly curious, with a constant desire to fill your brain with more and more knowledge. However, this constant stream of information may leave you feeling scattered and overwhelmed. Take a minute to realign your priorities and purposes in what you actually want to learn about.Â
Cancer – Jun 21 to Jul 22
You are ruled by the beautiful moon, the most visible planet in our night sky. This lunar energy makes you extremely emotional, empathic, and sensitive. This sensitivity causes you to crave security and reliability in all aspects of your life. Trust your intuition, and if someone in your life has proven to be inconsistent with their communication or actions, it may be time to cut them off for your own well-being.
Leo – Jul 23 to Aug 22
You are ruled not by a planet, but by the star that gives life to nearly every creature on this earth: the sun. You mimic your ruler in being just as unique, special, and purposeful. You are the centre of the universe, after all. Be careful in how you portray your exceptional nature, as some may find you egotistical and arrogant.
Virgo – Aug 23 to Sept 22
You and Gemini share the same ruling planet of Mercury, the planet driven by communication and intellect. Your logical, practical brain sees people how they are, not as who you wish they could be. You follow suit in presenting yourself to the world exactly as you are, not changing between situations or groups of people, but staying consistent and steadfast across all relationships and mediums of communication.Â
Libra – Sep 23 to Oct 22
You and Taurus share the ruling planet of Venus, the most relationally-oriented planet, controlling your pleasures and desires. Venus influences relationships of all kinds, not just romantic endeavours; for this reason you truly cherish whoever may cross your path in this lifetime, and recognize that your journeys are interconnected. Whether your encounter lasts for just a few minutes, or you play a pivotal role in each other’s lives for years, you understand that all interactions serve a greater purpose.
Scorpio – Oct 23 to Nov 21
Astrologers have different opinions on whether you are ruled by Mars or Pluto. I believe you are ruled by the now dwarf-planet Pluto, a planet associated with transformation and rebirth. You are almost always reinventing yourself and seeking greater meanings in this life. Be wary to not lose fundamental parts of yourself in each rebirth, but rather evolve, bringing with you all that gives you life and leaving behind all that drags you down.
Sagittarius – Nov 22 to Dec 21
You are ruled by the planet Jupiter, which symbolizes luck and abundance. This could be why you are unfailingly optimistic and always open to wider expansion. You focus on the big-picture instead of being bogged down by minute details, and success follows you everywhere you go.
Capricorn – Dec 22 to Jan 19
You are ruled by the planet Saturn, which symbolizes structure, discipline, and responsibility. You are keenly aware of the limitations time and space hold and maintain conscientious boundaries in all your relationships. Through hard work and strict discipline, you will reach your aspirations.
Aquarius – Jan 20 to Feb 18
You are ruled by the planet Uranus, a planet associated with rebellion and unpredictability. You are used to and even thrive in the midst of drastic changes. You look forward to deep deviations and sudden rebellions that spur social action. You are often labelled as eccentric or even unhinged, but you embrace these labels with pride.
Pisces – Feb 19 to Mar 20
You are ruled by the planet Neptune, a planet representing mysticism, spirituality, and fantasy. Your imagination is unhinged and you are highly sensitive to unseen forces. Some may see you as naive or almost childlike, but you are deeply receptive, empathic, and intuitive to everyone around you. Sometimes your imagination runs a little too wild, to the point where it crashes down with deep disappointment when you are grounded back in reality.Â
