Tongue Twisted Horoscopes for January 28-February 4
It’s a mental age for us all this week. Many of us are finding our spiritualities and discovering where our dreams might take us. Spirituality doesn’t have to be religion or meditation, and we may figure that out the hard way. Spirituality is simply what connects us with the universe, and it can be anything as simple as taking a bubble bath and clearing our head. The traditional views of kneeling by our bedside with our hands in prayer are over.
While some of us will be chest-deep in zen, the rest of us will be struggling to make heads or tails of what our brains are telling us. Communication will be an issue, so forgive your friends who won’t be able to English for the rest of this week. Hopefully, we’ll get our tongues back by Sunday.
Aquarius
Your mind just won’t quit, so take advantage and get all the work you can done, Aquarius. And then do some more. Make business deals by bargaining and don’t back down. Start planning your future if you haven’t done so already. Any decisions you make are sure to work out because of your determined nature. You are a rock and you can’t be moved.
Now what? With all that’s going on, don’t forget to make time for relaxing. If you don’t your anxiety can go through the roof, and you’ll have to work more to relax. If that makes sense.
Pisces
Now’s the time promote yourself without hiding, Pisces. There’s no one else you’d rather be this week, so be you without being apologetic. With this weight off your chest, you can focus on your work and get more done. You’ll feel so free and productive by the end of this week, you won’t know what to do with yourself. Anything you wish to accomplish, can be done with your optimism and your ability to set realistic goals.
Now what? You have limitations; everyone does. But if you stay optimistic about yours, they’ll never hold you back from doing what you want to do.
Aries
You’re a quick thinker this week, Aries. But hold the snarky comments and use that quick wit to focus on your work. Focus on your long term goals and discuss them with others. You’ll be good at explaining where you want to go in life and people will be inclined to listen because of your passion. Listen to what they have to say and take their advice into consideration. Follow your urge to try new things and see where they take you, but don’t forget about daily routines.
Now what? Routines suck sometimes, but they can be a good way to stay focused on what’s important instead of getting distracted by every new shiny thing that comes along.
Taurus
Your mind is constantly coming up with new ideas, but you might not be able to turn it off, Taurus. Your scrambled brain means you might not be able to make sense of things or communicate effectively. People might ask you unsettling questions that might not have rattled you before, but they do now. So, don’t make plans that involve clear thinking, especially if you’re receiving pressure from outside parties. Now’s a good time to connect with your spirituality and see where it fits in your life. It could help you out in times like this.
Now what? If you find that you don’t really have time for spirituality, maybe you should make time. It can really help you to relax if you have a specific time that you cut out of your busy day to focus on your life and where you stand.
Gemini
Everything makes sense to you because you are hella balanced. You can easily discover the tiny details needed to reach your goals. The big dreams? Those are nothing to you. Meanwhile, go ahead and travel and get others to do it with you. It’ll be easy to persuade them to tag along on a fun adventure. Don’t plan the whole thing; go with the flow and see where life takes you. It can be a fun, yet scary bonding experience.
Now what? On the way, make friends with strangers. I know your mom told you not to do it as a kid, but your approachable personality will have you attracting people of every background.
Cancer
Your emotional, home, and work life are finally in perfect balance, Cancer. No need to worry; everything will go smoothly on those fronts. Now, you can focus on your goals and how to get to them. You know that getting to where you want to be comes through hard work and taking sensible and realistic steps. But don’t let that discourage you. Keep your chin up and know that the more hard work you put into this, the greater the reward will be.
Now what? A good way to get started on realistic steps towards your goal is to write them down. Simple as that. If you keep internalizing them, you’ll keep finding reasons not to do them, so get them out on paper. Can’t ignore them then.
Leo
Your life may be filled with more personal interactions than usual, but watch your ego. Now’s when you really want to be watching what you say before thinking it through. You could accidentally piss someone off and then you have to worry about backtracking when it all could have easily been avoided. But when you watch what you say around certain people, you can be free to be as social as you like. Your charming personality can make you very popular at parties.
Now what? Now’s your turn to be the hostess. Find any reason to celebrate and bring those closest to you together. Be the life of the party and make sure everyone has fun.
Virgo
You’re like an orb of calm and balance and that will make you very popular, Virgo. People with hectic lives will feel the need to be around you and absorb your energy. Connect with them and your spirituality for the ultimate zen. It might be time to analyze where your spirituality applies to you and if you need to be making more time for it. And it doesn’t have to be meditation or any of the usual stuff. It could be just as simple as making time for yourself.
Now what? Because you’re so chill, now’s a good time for team projects. No hot-headed arguments involving ego will surface with you around. You’re there to give out good vibes and good vibes only.
Libra
For the first time in a long time, your thoughts are in tune with your intentions. That means that anything you think of can easily come into fruition. So, it might be time to seek something better in your work life, like a raise or maybe even a better job. You may also feel the need to try something new. That something new can be a kinky new someone or a new position in the bedroom. Don’t be afraid to explore and broaden your horizons with the taboo. The general public might not want to hear about your escapades, but your friends sure will.
Now what? While you’re out there chasing the unknown, don’t forget about your daily routines. Sure, they’re boring, but they’re the familiar thing you need in your life to keep you grounded when you have to come back to reality.
Scorpio
Your brain is sending you information overload, and you just can’t tell it to stop. You might be struggling to get words out and form ideas properly, so don’t make any big decisions, especially if someone is pressuring you to do so. Odds are, that person isn’t looking out for your best interest. Focus on following the dreams you’ve set for yourself. Follow them with realistic steps instead of looking at it as a big picture. The only way to stay on track is to know where you’re going next.
Now what? Your optimism is a big part of achieving your dream. Even when things get rough, don’t let your head down. Nothing this big comes with daisies and roses along the whole way.
Sagittarius
You’re a sponge, Sag. You’re retaining everything you hear this week, so not only are you great at remembering things, but you’ll also be great at learning a bunch of shit. So, go out there an learn! And if being smarter isn’t a big enough incentive, then you’ll be able to impress your friends with your vast and worldly knowledge, therefore being the ultimate friend everyone fights to have. This week is also good for fine tuning your goals. They might benefit from a little constructive criticism and a positive attitude on your part.
Now what? A great way to learn new things is to get out there and make new friends. They can give you viewpoints you’ve never even dreamed of, and they can also help you to form dreams you could never have dreamed up alone.
Capricorn
It always helps when you’re calm during an argument. Fortunately, Cappy, you will be. Your inner peace and balance will help you to see both sides of any argument, so that makes this week the perfect time to sort through any differences with you and a significant other. No more screaming and throwing stuff across the room. You can also use your inner zen to find where your spirituality might help you to plan ahead. Perhaps a calm and cool head is just what you need to plan the future.
Now what? Your life can be enhanced through social contact, so get on out there and talk to people. Sure, sitting on your couch all day with a popcorn bowl is relaxing, but getting out the house for something other than work is refreshing.
