Horoscopes

Aries (21 March - 20 April): Your summer will go one of two ways: Either you’ll end the school year on a high note and then plummet into a contrasting lull of boredom and restlessness that will frustrate you through June, July and August OR you’ll end the year on a high note, put some effort into making plans, reaching out to friends, finding things you care about and your summer can be the dynamic duo of fun and productivity.

Leo (23 July - 23 August): This is your summer for second chances. Apologizing doesn’t come easy to you, and neither does forgiveness. Maybe you’ve already messed up or maybe your screw-up will come in May or June. Either way, the sun will shed light on the issue, the water will wash it away and the salt and sand of the summer will give you the grit you need to move on.

Sagittarius (23 November - 22 December): Just as the summer starts to wind down in August, you’ll reach abrupt new levels of clarity. Maybe you’ll realize the lifeguard you’ve been flirting with all month is actually a huge douchebag, or that the sound your car has been making for weeks isn’t something rattling around in the trunk, but rather a thousand-dollar repair waiting to happen. Enjoy that clarity, and use it.

Taurus (21 April - May 20): Sometimes you’re wrong. Sometimes you get knocked down. Sometimes you’re only second best. Early this summer, you won’t get something you want, no matter how hard you try and it may come as a surprise. Rather than let yourself get stuck on this one thing, whether it’s a job, a trophy, a title, a win, a word, let it go and take a lesson instead. Sometimes you have to give in and move on.

Virgo (24 August - 23 September): The end of anything can be the hardest part. Conclusions are hard to write, finales have high standards, running the last mile of a race you can barely breathe. You will have to create an ending this summer. You can’t just stand on the sidelines and watch this bittersweet conclusion, rather you will take the wheel for the final leg of some journey; hopefully you will have what it takes to steer safely.

Capricorn (23 December - 20 January): Somebody will want to understand you this summer; they will try to break through your stoic shell, they will convince you to rely on them, they will not tamper your ambition, they will complement it. Your instinct might be to push them away, to maintain your cool head, to stand on the edge of the water and take a step back when the foamy waves approach. This time, consider dipping a toe in.

Gemini (21 May - 21 June): This is the summer to expand your network. You’ll be getting a lot of attention as the days warm, and if you capitalize on it, you can make some long-lasting friendships, valuable connections, maybe a fun enemy or two and, if it’s what you’re looking for, a summer fling doesn’t seem out of the question.

Libra (24 September - 23 October): By the end of the summer, you’ll be in a very different place from where you started, and you’ll have been a lot of places along the way. You’ll see challenge after challenge and reap reward after reward. You may start to think you have everything figured out, but in a month the world will have shifted beneath you once again. You may be going from job to job, or place to place, or goal to goal. And along the way, you may change as well.

Aquarius (21 January - 19 February): In August, you’re going to lose something you really care about. It may be something sentimental, like your grandmother’s antique earrings, or something more embarrassing, like your dignity. There’s nothing you can do to prevent this loss, but you can control how you react to it.

Cancer (22 June - 22 July): Cancers are kind of like the ultimate middle child. Sandwiched between argumentative Gemini and attention-seeking Leo, ruling over the doldrums of the summer, subscribing to loyalty and agreeableness, it’s easy to feel ignored and underappreciated. However, this summer something big is going to change for you in mid-July. It may be good or bad.

Scorpio (24 October - 22 November): This is your romance-novel summer. You may not fall in love, you may not even meet anyone cute, but just like every good summer romance takes place in the beach, surrounded by people you can only possibly know during the summer, you’ll spend these months similarly isolated from the rest of the year. It may be you don’t see your school friends, maybe you’re in an intense internship or traveling to Europe.

Pisces (20 February - 20 March): Normally it’s really easy for you to get on everyone else’s level; you understand, you relate, you communicate, you listen. Mid-way through the summer, you’ll be forced to reconsider all this. As you get into a funk, it’ll be harder for you to empathize like normal, and you’ll need to turn to other methods of understanding. Read books, listen to music, and try to look at people in ways that you never have before.
