With the school year coming to an end, there’s no better time than the present to reflect on how far we’ve all come. Whether you’re finishing up your first year of undergrad or handing your thesis off to your supervisor, it’s time to take a trip down memory lane and see what this year has taught the signs.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
If this year has taught you anything, Aries, it’s that you have nothing to worry about when it comes to your love life. You spent part of this year single, and absolutely slayed your healing era. Whenever you wanted to find a hookup, you literally had people lining up in your DMs. Now that you’re happily in a relationship, you’re totally thriving. When it comes to love, you’re all set.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Patience is a virtue, Taurus, be glad you learned it now. This year ed you by in a rush, and while that’s to be expected of someone with big goals, know it’s okay to stop and smell the roses sometimes. As you move into the future, whatever it may bring, take a breath and have a bit more faith that everything will be okay.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
This has been a tough year for you personally, Gemini. If this year has taught you anything, it’s that you’re not as well-liked as you think you are. Don’t fret, your time’s not up—there’s still one month to fix your image. Think long and hard about who you want to be—once you enter adulthood, there’s little room left for tinkering.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
This year has been filled with ups and downs, Cancer, but you’ve learned not to take life too seriously. From no longer stressing about perfecting your Instagram carousels, to ‘doing it for the plot,’ you’ve totally embraced the happy-go-lucky lifestyle. While your newfound light-heartedness is a beautiful thing, don’t forget the importance of balance. After all, there are some things—like your flopalicous grades—you have to take seriously.
Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)
I hope you’ve learned from your mistakes, Leo, because lord knows you’ve made a lot of them this year. It’s fine, we’re over them and honestly aren’t paying too much attention to you anymore; but don’t mistake our indifference for apathy. Our advice: use this summer to focus on your growth and maybe reinvent yourself. We may never forgive you, but perhaps this self-improvement will make sure you aren’t the laughingstock of our group chat forever.
Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
You’ve been stabbed in the back enough times this year, Virgo. For your own sake, we hope you’ve learned who your true friends are. You deserve people who will tell you there’s spinach stuck in your teeth, but also people that don’t talk shit behind your back. The end of the semester is the perfect opportunity for a clean slate—take advantage of it and get rid of the fake friends.
Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
You’ve learned nothing this year, Libra. You’re still the same old person making the same old mistakes. Let’s hope you’re using this summer to better yourself, because there’s no way the people around you will able to stand you for much longer. And no, bettering yourself does NOT include sleeping with your ex. Much like yourself, they’re never going to change…
Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
We hope this year has taught you the world doesn’t revolve around you, Scorpio. Life exists even when you’re not there. It’s understandable you’re primed to feel betrayed whenever your name drops from the conversation, but it’s about time you learn staying in with one or two friends is more fulfilling than begging for attention on the dancefloor.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
You’ve learned the valuable lesson of when to speak up, Sagittarius. Whether it’s working up the courage to raise your hand in class, ask your coffee shop crush out, or simply tell your housemates to wash their dishes, your voice has the power to make positive changes in your life and others.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
You’re motivated by duty, Capricorn, but thanks to your shenanigans this year, you now know when to take a detour off the beaten path and break from protocol. Being a rebel made this year one for the books—keep up the lawless energy! Believe it or not, your life can be fun when you break from your routine and ignore a few rules, and not all hell will break loose.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb 18)
Keep doing you, Aquarius. So, what if school’s not your thing? At least you found out now rather than later. You’ve learned being true to yourself is the most important thing. People pleasing got you nothing but the feeling of being utterly lost. Now that you’re no longer adrift, use this summer to find a ion, one you truly enjoy!
Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)
You’ve learned the importance of keeping your friends close and your enemies closer, Pisces. There’s only so many people in this world you can trust—sorry you had to find out the hard way. You’re a sensitive soul, and this year, you’ve had too much betrayal. Keep an eye on your opps this summer, but never let them know you’re watching.
