You are some of the most energetic people out of the Zodiac, Aries. You’re natural athletes at heart. This is why physical movement is crucial for you. You are at your best when you feel connected to your body. You don’t have to overdo it with extreme sports or high intensity workouts. Reconnect with your body in mindful practices like dancing techniques, massage therapy or hiking. Avoid any activities that can induce head trauma, basically anything that requires a helmet, because your skull is more sensitive than the rest of your Astrology counterparts being that Aries rules the cranium. Your body is your vessel.

Most folks may not know that you’re an anxiety prone sign. You have a delicate nervous system than most of the Zodiac. Affirmations that remind you how to come back to the present moment are helpful ways of letting you navigate away from the future and return to reality. You’re always thinking up genius ideas, Gemini. However, you live in your head, a lot. Creating one or several affirmations that remind you of what you’re in control of can be valuable for you. Start off by creating active and present tense affirmations such as: “I am aware that I am only responsible for myself” or “I am fully present with myself and those around me. This is a great way to ground your energy.”

Cancer

Cancer, you’re such giving people. You give because it’s something you genuinely enjoy doing. You highly dislike seeing others struggle, but that could result in a tendency to put yourself last. We want you to continue spreading the love, but to also remember to put your needs first. As empaths, you’re great at feelings, but could definitely strengthen your communication skills. Building a list of things you need from yourself to feel more nurtured is something you can do monthly or quarterly to reaffirm self-care. A secondary list that describes characteristics you need from your interpersonal relationships in order to feel they’re healthy and safe would be another method to remind yourself that you’re worthy of quality people in your life. Don’t be afraid to express yourself and flex that throat chakra!

Reconnecting with your inner child would be easier for you than most other Zodiac signs. You truly are a big kid at heart. However, when was the last time you talked to your inner child? A spiritual practice that incorporates some of your favorite hobbies as your younger self would be healing and wholesome. Write out the activities that brought you joy as a little kid. See which of those activities you can begin introducing on weekends or monthly basis as you dedicate space for your inner child moving forward.

Sagittarius

You’re a big idea kind of person. Blog it out, talk it out, write it out, but honestly, don’t feel silly no matter how out there your ideas might be. Sag, you’re a visionary and we find inspiration through you. Sometimes you just need a safe space to let out what you hold in.

This is where therapy or group spaces can be helpful for you to release any pent up energy. Find a trusted support group where you can express your thoughts. That stigma that going to therapy means there’s something wrong with you is rooted in toxic machismo Latinx culture. Do you!
