A different writer every week takes on the stars...
Week of September 29-October 5
By True
Auspicious time for everything. Finally! This “year without vibe” has come into itself, and fast. Time’s dilating like a cartoon cannon before it fires, watch out. Prediction: Shoot into the fucking sun. To give a loose description of an experience and how the thing occurs—How thrilling! This is not a bad thing. No cowardice, weakness, scorn, or bitterness will prosper. Golden moment to be in it, wouldn’t you say?
Aries:
Someone’s got to drive the bus. Even drugged and blindfolded, you’re up to the task. “Keep your hands to yourself” hasn’t been serving you; Flail wildly. You don’t have to know which direction you’re pointing to take them there anyways—Whether they like it or not.
Taurus:
Sit a little less straighter. That weight you feel? It’s not a heaviness, but a fullness. And also it doesn’t have to be. What would you name the sensation of all those self-imposed layers slipping gently and correctly off of you? Barbara? Judith? Candy? It’s happening.
Gemini:
What do you call the precipice to an ascent? Your star’s so that which is not in decline. Don’t hide from it, or anything. Instead, let it surround and envelop you like the large warm arms of something massive and ancient. Remember: shooting stars might be rare, but they are real.
Cancer:
That paradigm shift really did occur this time. Why shouldn’t it? You might think you’re a machine, but you’re actually a network. Tap in. Mechanisms of function repetition can take all that you out of you, or they can give way to vast and glorious vistas, a la the oldest automatic machine: Erosion.
Leo:
A word: Combustion. Another would be ‘spasm’. The point is, these violent paroxysms of life-overdose and overdoing it do end eventually, and you’ve got to put some sort of something in place to be there when you do. Find the color of the times and fill a sketchpad with it.
Virgo:
The city’s feeling small again, like something that never should’ve been opened. Like the lovely spiral, turn in, and further in. Find warmth. Find organs. Find sticky things. Sticky bloody organs sticky rice, put some sticky rice in your bloody organs and stay home, call a phone sex line to fall asleep and don’t cry. The semester’s only just starting.
Libra:
What’s that in the air? Wait, that’s my job. Yours is to think about bodies. Celestial bodies, making shapes to take place just so as to arrange the “body” bodies into place around you. Gravity exists just for this, bringing things into orbit for better and you can move on, but why would you?
Scorpio:
You’re close, even if you don’t quite know what that means. The surface is a place you can locate and you’re there baby. But think for a second what it would feel like to just go under, all the way, and drown in it. What would fill up your lungs, aside from the joyous peace of finality. Buzzing, buzzing, buzzing. And on the other side, down West Street all the way to the bridge…
Sagittarius:
Grow up. Everyone’s waiting. Well you’re already doing it, but it isn’t enough. You’ve been lost in the momentary dazzling, but consider that there really is a future and you have to go there. What is it you’re always saying about the ecstasy and agony of being?
Capricorn:
Sound effect of a cracking whip. But really, the whole control thing is getting out of hand. It’s infuriating everyone around you, though, that it all just keeps working out for you. Nothing bad ever happens. What if you used your power for good? Gentleness, grace, etc. Something vital got lost somewhere, and you don’t remember. But, like the dutch angle, free your expectations of a Center and you get much closer this way. Get out of your head out of your head out out!!!!
Aquarius:
Holy shit are you fucking lucid. This is an incredible time for spectacular feeling. The Master’s hands take tasks on Earth, perform miraculous feats. How to go deeper? What if all this wasn’t enough? Well, there are always signs and symbols. Just breathe and keep “doing you” I don’t fucking know.
Pisces:
What you’re doing is important. You are “seen” and “valid” or whatever. But it’s important to note that structures are reliant on the frameworks in place to support them. Lean in, or on, all that shit you’ve made for yourself, then let the eyes flutter softly and girl get some goddamn sleep. Time for catharsis, complete release. Get rid of this concreteness in your being. Things can be other things.

Week of September 22-28
By Holly Coleman
Aries:
Foundations are shifting—old expectations, relationships, projects built on sand. Witness collapse without resistance. Something must crack for what matters to thrive.
Tarot: The Tower. Let the walls burn; let smoke drift. Then search the rubble. What remains is what mattered all along.
Taurus:
Examine your self-care and the boundaries you’ve allowed to blur. The week pulls you toward abundance, but indulgence will hollow it out. Nourishment requires discipline.
Tarot: The Empress. Not lush feasts, but the quiet protection of what you grow: your values, your health, your soil. Refinement is dominion.
Gemini:
You’ve been scattering your brilliance. Trade quips for clarity. Choose one direction, one voice, one tool. Less doing, more becoming.
Tarot: The Magician. Use what you have, not what you wish for. One precise move outshines a hundred clever diversions.
Cancer:
Things aren’t as shallow as they seem. Navigate the emotional undercurrents. Let what’s hidden surface, unforced. Clarity comes from what’s concealed in the dark.
Tarot: The Moon. You’re begging for certainty, but illusion holds more truth. Step into the shimmer. Intuition reveals what daylight hides.
Leo:
You’ve been enjoying the spotlight, but what happens when the light dims? Radiance isn’t only for others to witness—it’s for you to live with. Sustain your internal glow.
Tarot: The Sun. Not display, but integrity. Radiate from your core. Absence gleams brighter than applause.
Virgo:
Refinement often comes through solitude. Tend the small, the exact, the bones of your own world. Withdrawal is not weakness; it’s craft.
Tarot: The Hermit. Distance is elegance. Carry a single lamp quietly through darkness and become the compass.
Libra:
Fairness is a blade, not a balm. Decisions you’ve postponed now demand alignment with your truth. Convenience masquerading as balance won’t hold.
Tarot: Justice. Not blindfolded promise, but the seeing, the weighing, the act. Use discernment as your knife—not to wound, but to cut falsehood free.
Scorpio:
Your hunger is ignited, but striking at shadows wastes fire. Secrets, internal revelations, what you aren’t saying—these are your leverage. Let what’s hidden rise unprovoked.
Tarot: The High Priestess. Power lives in silence. Knowing without telling. Let your interior be sanctuary, not spectacle.
Sagittarius:
The cosmos doesn’t want overflow; it wants harmony. Overextending now only leads to imbalance. Fuse extremes: rest and motion, silence and speech, longing and satisfaction.
Tarot: Temperance. The art of measured blending. Pour slowly. Let contradictions share a glass until they taste whole.
Capricorn:
Something is culminating. What’s most potent is not the ending, but what you do there: will you fall, or bow and claim what emerges? Completion isn’t collapse. It’s mastery.
Tarot: The World. Relinquish control. Stand still. Watch the circle seal itself—not by force, but by endurance.
Aquarius:
You’re standing in shadow but hope still flickers. Not loud, not clanging—a fragile brilliance that remakes the night around you. Even a single glimmer in the void matters.
Tarot: The Star. The signal in darkness. One spark can reorder the sky. Let faith in possibility anchor you.
Pisces:
Murkiness has you gasping for answers, but clarity waits in suspension. Stillness is your vantage now. Let go of the urge to act. Let things hang, then see what reveals itself.
Tarot: The Hanged Man. Vision sharpens upside down. Surrender is neither giving in nor defeat; it’s wisdom.

Week of September 8-14
By Holly Coleman
Aries:
Ambition has you clawing at locked doors. The racket’s impressive, but it won’t turn the key. Pick one target and stalk it in silence. Frenzy isn’t glory. Arrival is. Show up unannounced.
Taurus:
Patience is your specialty, but it curdles if you leave it out too long. Trade comfort for appetite: eat dessert first, kiss before the apology, rearrange the furniture mid-party. Ritual feeds the clock. Appetite feeds the flesh. Jump while you’re hungry.
Gemini:
Conversation is your party trick, but lately the room looks tired. Indulge in one good sentence, then let it hover. Ask one question you actually care about and stop talking while the answer happens. Editing is foreplay. Don’t skip it.
Cancer:
You’ve upholstered every surface with feelings and now the room can’t breathe. Rip a seam. Let something leak. Tell one unglamorous truth to someone who can take it, then walk away. Depth isn’t lost in the spill. It’s proved by the stain.
Leo:
Audience fatigue is real—yours and theirs. Put a cover charge on your attention: fewer favors, fewer pep talks, fewer free encores. Save one gleam for yourself and let the rest dim. Mystery earns more than martyrdom. Keep them begging.
Virgo:
Perfection is starting to look like taxidermy. You’ve polished the life out of it. Leave a smudge, miss a step, let one drawer stay messy. Control isn’t intimacy; it’s display. Nobody lusts after glass. They want fingerprints.
Libra:
You don’t need symmetry to be loved. Balance has flattened you—all gleam and no grip. Tip the scales until they rattle, let the prettiness crack. Perfect equilibrium isn’t grace. It’s rigor mortis in drag.
Scorpio:
Desire has teeth. Quit sanding them down. Make one move and skip the riddles. Not everything requires a trapdoor. Sometimes you just need to turn the knob. A bruise is proof, and proof is sexy.
Sagittarius:
Your grin is doing manual labor for a body that wants mutiny. Cancel one caffeine-induced plan and lie down without guilt. Let boredom press until the truth leaks out. Honesty is hotter than stamina. Lick your fingers and touch the flame.
Capricorn:
You keep auditioning for a future self while the present rolls its eyes. The crack on your phone, the stain you missed, the smile you let slip—imperfection is where you get interesting. Let it seduce you. Control isn’t the kink. It’s what you fixate on when you lose it.
Aquarius:
You’ve been orbiting your own body like it’s disposable space junk. Try re-entry: work it, stretch it, let it sweat. Ideas aren’t revolutions until the flesh can bear them. Your body is the engine. Keep it hot.
Pisces:
Memory isn’t a refuge; it’s a drug cut with nostalgia. You’ve been dosing on old scenes. Pull back an inch. Say one thing you mean and let it stay ugly. The future doesn’t want tidy. It wants you, dripping and awake.

Week of September 1-7
By Amalia Mairet
Aries:
You have some stuff to do & it’s sitting like a pit in your stomach. Write a list of tasks and eat the first half. Mash up that extra paper in your back teeth and swallow it. I’m serious. Then shit it out. You got this girl.
Taurus:
Look at all the items on your dresser. You’ve had enough time to put things in their place & you will never use that paperclip. Look how it’s rubbing away the wood varnish. Throw it out and get to dusting.
Gemini:
Are you even trying to get a job anymore? It’s fine if you’re not. No, really, it’s fine. I’ll get the next round. Hope Budweiser is okay. Just check your email before Monday—or delete it entirely.
Cancer:
You’ve been holding that arrow with the string taut since February and now the target is behind you. I bet you didn’t even realize that your fingers fell asleep. Wear a watch next week, or you will lose more time this way.
Leo:
A cold silver planet has been telling you to text your ex for months. But remember, you can control the order of your thoughts and the images that appear when you fuck yourself. At the end of the night, think about it. What would you rather have? Him or the money?
Virgo:
You’re full of that strange red energy that makes you want to jaywalk for no reason. Don’t listen. Don’t push. If you were walking with a child, you would take their hand and look around. Where are you? What are you looking at?
Libra:
The way you’re sitting on the couch is giving you a spinal hump. I’m only telling you because I care. You have time to stretch it out, if that’s the kind of thing that bothers you. You don’t even have to take your eyes off the television.
Scorpio:
I know you want to fall in love again but the timing’s all wrong. Too much pleasure makes everything soft and you need life hard and regular. Ew, sorry. Seriously though, there’s a difference between good and great. You should look into that.
Sagittarius:
Listen, it’s not enough to be sexy. Everyone is sexy these days. You have to go outside and eat a sandwich and try walking in a straight line. Summer is almost over. Don’t keep drowning in a dried-up pool.
Capricorn:
You’ve tried all July and August to figure people out. It hasn’t worked, and that’s okay—you have places to be. The next train leaves in five. Grab your bag and look at someone across the subway. Say hello. Say nothing. The lights will flash in hidden patterns.
Aquarius:
September is the season of investment. Go up to the roof and survey the kingdom, your domain. Big skyline and so many empty buildings. Maybe you should finally unpack.
Pisces:
Remember to finish your leftovers. Make a soup out of vegetable scraps. Drink the olive brine from that jar at the back of the fridge. Imagine it all moving slowly through your guts. That’s called introspection. You’re doing it already.

Week of August 25-31
By Bernard Cohen
Aries:
You are happy to spend
Time with me and for the
First time in a very long time you have to
Switch up your schedule to do so
Taurus:
You do have chronic pain, you hobble, and you are
Voiceless a lot of the time. You do things
Clinically when appropriate
Gemini:
You are waiting to surf and play the
Long game. You grabbed the
Bottle out of my hand
Cancer:
Your wallet can be contiguous with
Mine. It hurts when you take things the wrong way (you are a
Cancer so you have waterlike tendencies)
Leo:
You and I think wildly
About each other through a pinhole. You
Shimmer when you get called on
Virgo:
Your breathing on the phone had me
Listless, you’re the biggest crocodile I know
Libra:
There is something desperate in your curation, as if you
Are mediated by the vagal
Scorpio:
You get stoned and hold your back up. You are
All flighty. Scorpio, all of a sudden you have
Notes on my condition
Sagittarius:
You could be in limbo, drinking crème de menthe by the
Company pool. You could rest it all like baby in a truck
Capricorn:
When the glass broke in your hand you
Circled that moment. You’d love to work a little more, “in the
Dark, I can love this place”
Aquarius:
You look up as if for more Ambien. I can help you resonate in
Times of severe duplicity
Pisces:
I don’t know about you that way. Memory girl floating through
Space. You will look at yourself and you will be
Made entirely out of 100 spots

Week of August 18-24
By Angel Kether
Aries:
You might be releasing light, but light sometimes reminds us of Lucifer. It’s time for you to let go of your anger towards things you cannot control. Do an activity that excites every part of your body and soul. There is a conflict within that you will have the opportunity to resolve this week, most likely around Wednesday.
Taurus:
During this week you might like to observe the moon deeply and harvest its energy. It’s time for you to transmute your desire for pleasure into creativity. Feed a pigeon on Thursday and repeat “AUM” slowly while exhaling before you go to sleep. Remember that smoking hurts you more than it hurts your friends.
Gemini:
You dislike conflict yet you have been creating it lately. Something is pushing you over the edge and you are just letting it happen. Embrace the journey of a hermit for a couple of days and let your imagination grow. Stop thinking about people and start thinking about things and activities, such as picking stones. If you vape you have to stop because your lungs are sensitive.
Cancer:
You have been happier lately, keep it up. Stay positive and go swim in a river. Remember that a lot of negativity comes from your phone and you are easily influenced. To gain real inspiration you have to log off and collect mudskippers.
Leo:
You are trying to seem put together but you are not. Remember that you are the child of the sun. You have the power to do great things if you let yourself be concentrated. Let go of the fantasy and see your true self, everything else will follow. It’s on you to get things done.
Virgo:
Don’t lose hope. Get inspired by leo and celebrate life this week. The sun is beautiful and the moon is beautiful. You are alive in the presence of both. Sometimes there is no darkness beneath things. Sometimes there is only love.
Libra:
You love to be prepared, but this week allow yourself to be spontaneous. There are things ahead of you that you don’t have to worry about. Remember that science and wisdom are two different things. Invoke the divine forces, concentrate on that terrestrial current ascending.
Scorpio:
Stop ignoring the voice of the divine mother, instead connect with her. Don’t be doubtful. Your life will get better significantly upon embracing sexual transmutation. Trust.
Sagittarius:
You have the easiest access to the astral and so you better start using it. Foster empathy within your spiritual journey. Hum “sssssssssssssssss” before falling asleep. If you feel restless, consider starting Taekwondo classes.
Capricorn:
You radiate kindness and youth right now. Finally you are realizing that you can have confidence and luck too. Remember that things don’t have to be difficult to have value. Pet a dog this week.
Aquarius:
Your actions have consequences. If you don’t activate your unique purpose you will be unhappy. Avoid crying babies this week.
Pisces:
You are still so lost. Why are you running away from yourself? Stop holding back and stop creating artificial identity for yourself. You are who you are and you have imperfections, that’s okay. If you feel sad this week remember it’s most likely caused by your own thoughts and actions. It is not hard to be grateful.
You might be releasing light, but light sometimes reminds us of Lucifer. It’s time for you to let go of your anger towards things you cannot control. Do an activity that excites every part of your body and soul. There is a conflict within that you will have the opportunity to resolve this week, most likely around Wednesday.
Taurus:
During this week you might like to observe the moon deeply and harvest its energy. It’s time for you to transmute your desire for pleasure into creativity. Feed a pigeon on Thursday and repeat “AUM” slowly while exhaling before you go to sleep. Remember that smoking hurts you more than it hurts your friends.
Gemini:
You dislike conflict yet you have been creating it lately. Something is pushing you over the edge and you are just letting it happen. Embrace the journey of a hermit for a couple of days and let your imagination grow. Stop thinking about people and start thinking about things and activities, such as picking stones. If you vape you have to stop because your lungs are sensitive.
Cancer:
You have been happier lately, keep it up. Stay positive and go swim in a river. Remember that a lot of negativity comes from your phone and you are easily influenced. To gain real inspiration you have to log off and collect mudskippers.
Leo:
You are trying to seem put together but you are not. Remember that you are the child of the sun. You have the power to do great things if you let yourself be concentrated. Let go of the fantasy and see your true self, everything else will follow. It’s on you to get things done.
Virgo:
Don’t lose hope. Get inspired by leo and celebrate life this week. The sun is beautiful and the moon is beautiful. You are alive in the presence of both. Sometimes there is no darkness beneath things. Sometimes there is only love.
Libra:
You love to be prepared, but this week allow yourself to be spontaneous. There are things ahead of you that you don’t have to worry about. Remember that science and wisdom are two different things. Invoke the divine forces, concentrate on that terrestrial current ascending.
Scorpio:
Stop ignoring the voice of the divine mother, instead connect with her. Don’t be doubtful. Your life will get better significantly upon embracing sexual transmutation. Trust.
Sagittarius:
You have the easiest access to the astral and so you better start using it. Foster empathy within your spiritual journey. Hum “sssssssssssssssss” before falling asleep. If you feel restless, consider starting Taekwondo classes.
Capricorn:
You radiate kindness and youth right now. Finally you are realizing that you can have confidence and luck too. Remember that things don’t have to be difficult to have value. Pet a dog this week.
Aquarius:
Your actions have consequences. If you don’t activate your unique purpose you will be unhappy. Avoid crying babies this week.
Pisces:
You are still so lost. Why are you running away from yourself? Stop holding back and stop creating artificial identity for yourself. You are who you are and you have imperfections, that’s okay. If you feel sad this week remember it’s most likely caused by your own thoughts and actions. It is not hard to be grateful.
Week of August 11-17
By Wanda Noonan
Aries:
Don’t walk back what you just said. The only way out (of this conversation) is through. Let the people around you rise to the occasion rather than babying them. Let forward motion be a shared goal.
Taurus:
Don’t be a hero. If “should” is making you feel twisty inside, put it on hold. Your larger commitments are all well and good, but it’s time to let yourself express something you’ve been putting off. Be a little selfish this week.
Gemini:
Your normal mediums are feeling threadbare. Try something cringe in private. Write a country song on a napkin. Spray paint your first word on a city-owned garbage truck. Do something that nothing will come of and let it recharge you.
Cancer:
Other people’s conclusions aren’t just out of your control—they’re not even your business! Petty frustrations are blocking you from seeing the big picture. Stay out of the weeds if you can help it. You’re on a larger arc than you can see right now.
Leo:
If music is playing and no one’s dancing, it might be on you to get up and start to groove. This is your season after all. Relish the authority and use it for good. We need you!
Virgo:
If you’re feeling sentimental this week, it’s because the trends targeting you have missed their mark. That’s a good thing! Think back on a time in your life you felt held, catered to, seen. Queue up an album you used to love, put on a shirt you haven’t worn in a while. The present moment is bewildering. Hold your own hand and try not to take things too personally.
Libra:
Clarity is coming in waves, and it can feel powerful and lonely. This is a good week to journal before you speak, lest your insights fall on sensitized ears and backfire (especially if dealing with a Virgo). You’re smart. Go in with a plan.
Scorpio:
Your shoulders are looking a little stiff. Put a picture of yourself on the wall and throw a dart at it. Laughter will lubricate your efforts this week. Flexibility over brute force.
Sagittarius:
Someone is looking for you! If pieces of your energy are rearing up and feel unmet, it’s because collaboration is imminent. Reach out to an acquaintance just to say hi. They are concocting something and they need you.
Capricorn:
Be wary of autopilot. It’s okay to hold off on decisions if you don’t have an answer. Reacting quickly to appease isn’t your friend this week. Err on the side of “I’ll get back to you.”
Aquarius:
As always, you’re seeing things other people miss. Sit in a summer-emptied cafe and watch, for a lost dog to trot past or a bit actor from a show you loved in high school. The world wants to show you things.
Pisces:
Passions are cresting and you might be feeling a little sorry for yourself. Mid August is the most liminal time of year, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t real. Especially for you! Call someone you trust and let yourself babble.

Week of August 4-10
By Wanda Noonan
Aries:
You’re feeling sticky this week, and it’s not just the weather. Wanting space and wanting closeness doesn’t have to contradict. If “no” is a sentence, “yes” is a book. Open it.
Taurus:
Becoming an adult could take the rest of your life. Let the interpersonal letdowns of late act as stepping stones to actualization. Tap the railing as you climb, but don’t hold onto it.
Gemini:
A new addition to your friend group is feeling a little close for comfort. Remember: Life is long. Let someone you think is stupid surprise you. A broken clock is right twice a day.
Cancer:
Family matters have you feeling like a boat out at sea. Luckily, you aren’t scared of what’s in the water. Imagine the things growing on the underside of the boat. You’ll be back on land sooner than you think, and you’ll miss them.
Leo:
The haze and the heat exhilarate and baffle you, and nothing lasts forever. People want to hear from you— Err on the side of hitting “send” (better yet, “call”). Let your palest parts get a little sun. You are not replaceable.
Virgo:
Practice thinking about things just enough and not more than that. Light distractions to break rumination. Order a drink you aren’t sure you’ll like. Forego the straw.
Libra:
Your thoughts aren’t always your friends. When the shallow ones start to swirl, turn to sensation (The crash of a gong, or a headphones-free subway ride) to scatter them. You don’t have to answer every question. You don’t have to answer any questions!
Scorpio:
These trenches of summer complement your vibrant internal landscape. Practice sitting comfortably inside yourself without turning the lights on. Your season is right around the corner.
Sagittarius:
If you want your summer dreams to come true, you’ll have to take initiative. Not everyone can keep up with you, but they’ll be glad to come along for the ride. Try not to hold it against them.
Capricorn:
When looking at what you’ve earned makes you feel shaky, remember: This isn’t jenga, it’s chutes and ladders. For better or for worse, you are a climber. Loosen your boots in the presence of a trusted friend and tie them tighter tomorrow.
Aquarius:
Stepping off the path feels good, doesn’t it? Your mind is on the brink of a conclusion, and creating a shift in routine this week will help it get there. Can you take the stairs instead of the elevator? Yellow subway seat instead of orange? Hold off on texting back right away? People need you, but not in the way they think and not all the time. A moon viewed out of focus is no less a moon.
Pisces:
The dimension you were built for isn’t the one we’re living in. People are especially drawn to you this week. Let them hold the door and buy your drink. When the curtain falls, you’ll be laughing.
