This year has been nothing short of Earth-shattering, and with good reason. The transits we experienced this year—most notably, Saturn (structure), Pluto (transformation) and Jupiter (expansion) consistently causing contention in Capricorn—were meant to shake us to our very core. Some might say this is uncomfortable. Others might say this is insane. And still, others might say, “give me a f*cking break already.” All of those people are me and my Gemini personalities.
But here’s some good news (cue John Krasinski direct-to-camera look). We’re moving into the Age of Aquarius! Saturn and Jupiter, huge ruling planets for us here on Earth, enter into Aquarius within days of each other this month—making way for their Great Conjunction on the winter solstice, Dec 21st. This massive energy will shift us into the concepts of innovation, connectivity, and welfare for the global community.
TL;DR: 2021 will be nothing short of revolutionary. Read on to see which area of your life will be destined for growth. Make sure to check both your Sun and your Rising signs* for the utmost accuracy.
*Your Sun sign is your fundamental identity. It points to your general personality, approach to life, interests, and how you shine.
*Your Rising sign (or Ascendant) represents how you show up and the direction in which you move through the world. This sign was on the horizon at the time of your birth and therefore sets up your entire chart (which is why accurate birth time is important). It’s arguably a more predictive way to determine what you’ll encounter and how you’ll meet it.
Aries
Your freedom will come from having absolutely zero limitations on how you’re connecting with the world. This could look like having a much larger purpose to influence great change. I sincerely doubt you’ve been waiting to get in the game, but this year will give you agency to take it global. This could look like getting involved through a non-profit or taking up more space on social media to advocate for something you’re passionate about. We’re all waiting to see what you’re going to start (no pressure).
Taurus
If 2020 taught you anything, it’s that you can navigate insecurity. You’ve also learned that life is a two-way street, meaning you don’t have to do everything yourself. Recognize where you’ve gotten through de-stabilizing times with a little help from your friends. Next year gives you a great opportunity to take calculated risks to advance your career. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. We’re all rooting for you.
Gemini
Exploration and communication of the themes that have come to light in the last year will be your goal in 2021. What ultimate truths have you learned? How can you integrate these into your life philosophy? How can you help others understand? The way you communicate these will be uniquely yours, Gemini. Our advice is to make these truths snackable and lighthearted, even if the subject matter is anything but. It’s show and tell time!
Cancer
You’ve certainly had time to be intimate with yourself in 2020. How many sex toys did you buy? Be honest. But in true Cancerian fashion, you likely were more concerned with finding intimacy in a partnership. This year will encourage you to focus on yourself in order to experience true breakthroughs. And no, I’m not just talking about orgasms, but I’m not not talking about orgasms.
Leo
You’ll experience serious potential for love and partnership next year, Leo. If you’re single, make sure you’re intentionally manifesting your “perfect” partner. And simply saying “I’m manifesting a partner” will not cut it. Visualize the feeling of being with someone, take note, and then ask the universe for some help on the delivery. If you’re in a committed relationship, you’ll experience power-couple vibes. Hello, Bey and Jay.
Virgo
Personal revolution is happening for Virgos in the house of your rulership (6th house) which means you’re receiving double-down energy. This would be the year to feel completely supported in focusing on your health and routines, getting your edge through the use of technology. Oh, and domestic matters will be your bitch, too. So hey, if you’ve been thinking about buying a Peloton, this is your sign. (No, they didn’t pay me to say that.)
Libra
F*ck the establishment, Libra! 2021 has you feeling all sorts of brave, playful and yes, maybe a little rebellious. Will this shock the people around you, since you of all people like to color inside the lines? Sure. Does that really matter? Not in the least. Give yourself permission to take the spotlight, or at least the ring light, and do what makes you happy.
Scorpio
Mastering family life and maternal instincts will be on your radar next year, Scorpio. This could look like establishing the house rules for everyone in your domain or simply establishing how you’d like your own chosen family to run. Remember that the very nature of family means it’s more of a democracy than a dictatorship, so try your best to be firm, yet accommodating on the issues you could care less about, like where you put the TV. You can’t make every hill the one you’re willing to die on.
Sagittarius
You normally travel the world for inspiration, but this year you’ll be called to learn from your immediate environment, your neighborhood, or simply your closest friends and family. Your new approach will have a well-spring of creative ideas percolating for you all year, and you’ll want to talk to your newfound teachers about them. Take that airplane out of your Instagram bio once and for all, and make an impact in your neighborhood instead, Sagittarius.
Capricorn
Listen closely, because this one is def going to be music to your ears, Capricorn. Next year holds major earning potential for you. (I can literally hear a collective YES!) All the work you’ve put into your craft will certainly pay off next year, so enjoy watching the stacks rise. That said, try bringing something back into the fold that you scrapped this year for lack of time or expertise. You’ll have more resources to revive it this year.
Aquarius
It’s your time, Aquarius. You’re THE most equipped for this new age we’re entering, so don’t be surprised if you feel the intrinsic need to step out and lead this revolution. Everyone is catching up to your line of thinking, but we do actually need you to be constantly innovating and moving the needle forward. Your gut will rarely be wrong—just go with it and don’t second-guess it.
Pisces
Bless my Pisces, always ready to be everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Next year will have you fully embracing who you are, the magical mystery tour that is life. Walk into the unknown the same way most of us walk into Target: willfully blissful and leaving with so much more than we intended to. (Also, not sponsored.)

Well, it’s January 765th, and we’re still either blindly holding on to those resolutions or gave up about 764 days ago. What do the stars and planets hold for us this weekend? Will you crack (say crack again) and give in on your Keto diet? Will you ghost that guy from Hinge that cried a little more than was acceptable during season seven finale of The Great British Baking Show? Only Jupiter knows, probably!
Capricorn
Make time for friends this weekend, Capricorn. We know that canceling plans is a big #mood for January 2020 (and probably the rest of the year), but the moon in Scorpio makes Friday a prime time to head out for drinks and questionable karaoke bar choices. After a wild night, a friend may ask for advice on Saturday, so try not to freak out and go off about hooking up with investor bros.
Aquarius
You just have a lot of feelings this weekend, Aquarius. After work on Friday, head home and vacuum your house alone, then order takeout and text your mom. Keep plans on the DL on Saturday, too, since you’re going to be feeling more irritable than that time you spent three hours on the phone with Comcast. It isn’t the worst idea to warn friends and family that the planets are sending you bad vibes so everyone knows to back off.
Pisces
You’re feeling sassy this weekend, Pisces, so don’t pass up the opportunity to travel and take advantage of three days off. Venus and Neptune are pushing your self-esteem up a notch, so go ahead and try to fit into those jeans from college before heading out on the town. You’re doing amazing, sweetie.
Aries
The Scorpio moon has you ready to get your freak on this weekend, Aries. First, head out on a date to do something interesting on Friday. It could be tango lessons. It could be watching some really dark porn together. Whichever you choose, it’ll have you primed and ready for a romantic brunch and stroll around town on Saturday to spend money on dumb sh*t. Yay!
Taurus
Get ready for a fight with your SO on Friday, Taurus. It could finally be the time you snap over him leaving his f*cking dishes in the sink to “soak.” Or, maybe you’ll finally lose your mind over the way he clips his toenails outside a bathroom environment. Whichever you choose to freak out about and whichever Uranus peer pressures you into getting mad at, come Saturday you’ll both be over it and ready to replace white hot rage with breakfast and snuggles.
Gemini
Seriously, chill tf out this weekend, Gemini. Your boss has been pretty f*cking demanding all week, but if you don’t really want to take all that work home with you, then don’t. You deserve some r&r, fam. If you really need to check your work email on Sunday, go for it, but try not to after leaving Friday and all day Saturday. Focus on important sh*t, like which Starbucks you should visit Saturday morning or whether or not you can ditch SoulCycle this week.
Cancer
Get creative this weekend, Cancer. You’ve had several artsy fartsy projects on your list for around the apartment, and it’s a great time to finally tackle them. Just remember to leave the windows open if you’re spray painting, since fumes are like, not that chill to inhale over long periods of time. Sunday is prime to head out and try something new, like visiting an art gallery full of pieces you can’t afford, or finally getting over your fear of Korean food.
Leo
Focus on family this weekend, Leo. Make a point to connect with siblings and or parents on Friday—maybe over some comforting (see: fattening) food. After listening to your parents bicker, Saturday becomes a great day to practice self-care a la nest duty. Tidy up all the spots you’ve ignored, cook yourself dinner instead of ordering out, and hide your phone for the day.
Virgo
The moon is highlighting partnership, so whether you want to bond with your SO, your dog, or your bestie, this weekend is a great time to do it. You’ll feel ready to really communicate your feelings on Saturday, so don’t hold back about your emotions when it comes to food or slumber parties with everyone from your newest Tinder connection to your oldest friend.
Libra
Stop spending your money on stupid sh*t, Libra. This weekend, the planets are pressuring you into really looking at your finances, and it’s def the adult thing to examine how you’re spending that cash. Is your job supporting the way you want to live? Unless you’re an influencer, probs not, but this weekend is the time to ask yourself the hard questions. Then, organize your sh*t and get your taxes together early, because adulthood.
Scorpio
You’re gonna feel powerful af this weekend, Scorpio. Since you’ll be feeling super confident, Friday is a great night to head out and turn some heads in that new top you’ve been nervous to wear. Saturday you’ll feel inspired to write a novel, start painting, or attempt a level three recipe from Bon Appetit. Sunday is for sleeps and being thankful that you probably don’t have to go to work on Monday.
Sagittarius
This weekend is all about sleep, Sagittarius. Sometimes, the cosmos just wants us to chill tf out, stay in our pajamas, and keep the curtains closed. Lucky for you, that’ll be the best way to feel refreshed for next week. Plus, you may get some weird universe-ish messages in your dreams, so try to remember the crazy sh*t going on in your head and jot it down. Next week you can Google what it means to have all of your teeth fall out in a dream.

Everyone has a lot of f*cking feelings this week, so we can think of no better time to announce the beginning of winter body season. That’s right: it’s time to bundle the f*ck up, throw those sweats on, and treat yo’self in preparation for all of the big eating holidays to come. Food makes everything better, so whether the planets have you destined to feel extra sexy, followed by some self-loathing this weekend, or are pushing you to fight everyone, just shove a donut in your mouth and try to move on.
Shall we?
Libra
Thanks to Mars in your sign, you’re feeling super f*cking emotional this weekend, Libra. It’ll pass, but taking some time for yourself will definitely help move the feelings along. Don’t be surprised if your boss texts you Saturday about that giant project you’ve been putting off. It’s fine to work a lil extra this weekend; just be sure to give yourself some time away from the emails on Sunday.
Scorpio
You’re sexy and you know it, Scorpio. Srsly, the planets are lining up to make you extra irresistible Friday and Saturday. so make sure you dedicate at least one day this weekend to either getting freaky-weird with your SO or hitting the town with your lady gang. Sunday should be dedicated to all things creative, so it’s finally time to tackle that DIY project of changing out the pulls on your dresser or making up a dessert to eat alone later. Get to it.
Sagittarius
You’re ready to soak up your own awesomeness this weekend, Sagittarius. Fun is def on the table, so whatever you end up doing, you’ll likely have an amazing time. Grab drinks with your besties on Friday, since the planets are pushing you to be social heading into the weekend. Mom or Dad may try to pop in on Saturday, so be nice and let them make you dinner/do your laundry/rearrange your furniture.
Capricorn
Stop f*cking doubting yourself, Capricorn. You’re usually pretty confident, but this weekend has you feeling wishy-washy on, well, everything. Whatever you do, try not to backtrack (see: texting your ex and why you shouldn’t do it 101) and comfort yourself by cuddling with puppies or ordering more food than you need from Postmates.
Aquarius
The planets are pushing you to spend your life savings this weekend, Aquarius. Don’t f*cking listen, because no, it isn’t a good idea to dip into your 401k. Spend time with your favorite people this weekend, but be conservative about your finances. You don’t need to go all out and be the sugar daddy for the group this time.
Pisces
Enjoy some motherf*cking alone time this weekend, Pisces. Take a f*cking break, put on those stained sweats you secretly love, and binge watch some sh*t. Unplug and turn off your phone, too. It’s okay to take a step back from everything between Friday night and Saturday. Sunday, if you’re ready to face the world, treat yourself to a breakfast for one outside the house, then settle in to read a trashy novel.
Aries
Some sh*t’s gonna get real for you this weekend, Aries. So no, not everything is going to go according to plan (Pro tip: stock up on Plan B and vodka). You’ll be more ready to fight than a Jersey housewife this weekend, so try to avoid spirited discussions with those you KNOW you tend to clash with. On Saturday, try to roll with whatever your SO or bestie want to do and take the pressure off yourself. Now’s not the time to be a control freak.
Taurus
Get ready for romance, Taurus. More specifically, get ready for your SO to be all over you or for everyone to try to bring you home this weekend. Don’t get high on power, though, as being picky could actually pay off. We say flirt everyone up on Friday but play hard-to-get by Sunday.
Gemini
Single? GTFO there, Gemini. Tis the perfect fall weekend to find a mate just in time for cuffing season, so believe in yourself, throw some eyeliner on, and get in there. If you’re already paired up, spend some extra time with your SO this weekend doing all the fall sh*t. Saturday is prime for apple picking, so you can hate yourselves afterwards. Remember, if you don’t put it on Instagram, it’s like it never even happened.
Cancer
Saturday is for napping, Cancer. Seriously, there’s too much to be overstimulated about this weekend, so go ahead and give yourself permission to cancel plans on Friday and nest on Saturday. It’s actually a great chance to treat yourself to a home-cooked meal or visit with your fam, so go ahead and get that on the calendar if possible.
Leo
You’re feeling hella “meh” this weekend, Leo. Saturday, let someone else make the plans and you can just tag along for the ride. Try to avoid getting butthurt over anything, since you’ll be extra sensitive and likely to start sh*t when it just isn’t necessary. Sleep in on Sunday and eat waffles because you deserve it, champ.
Virgo
Time to pamper, Virgo. You haven’t given yourself permission to indulge and celebrate yourself in awhile, so take Saturday to go to the spa, mani-pedi your sh*t, and then buy shoes or whatever. It’ll help take your mind of how BLAH you’ve been feeling about your relationship lately, too. Don’t worry—by Monday, you’ll be feeling on the up and up.
