Sagittarius (November 22nd to December 21st)

With this week’s parade of Mars, Sun and Venus in Aries, even if I told you to chomp at the bit rather than swinging and being merry like it’s… Easter, you couldn’t listen, even if you wanted to. That’s what we love about you, Sagittarius. Your exuberance and energy could and should be contagious now. You got to work it just right, though. This is when you need to have some semblance of a plan rather than winging all of it. Enthusiasm literally means the breath or inspiration of the gods. But inspiration requires vessels to contain them, even ones made of “clay.” Otherwise you just have a lot of hot air or wind. Conversations can be containers too, if you treat them with care and intention. Think about what you're crafting with this gust of enthusiasm. It’s wind for your sails, but only if your sails are up and you have a sense of where you’re going.
