It’s perhaps the most brutal myth in the canon: Saturn, trying to outmaneuver a prophecy of his downfall, devours his own children — an act that ensures exactly what he hoped to avoid. The story echoes with the consequences of trying to control the uncontrollable. “Control freak” is a bad look for gods and mortals alike — and a habit worth breaking on the eve of Saturn’s retrograde.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re turning the canvas upside down, tilting the frame, examining the dynamics from every angle. What looks “fine” will become extraordinary with a few bold changes.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Tracing your own line through history will open your eyes to other people’s journeys, too. You’ll find yourself struck with new empathy, new questions and a deeper respect for everyone’s origin story.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s a choice between pushing harder and softening into trust. Try the second one. Something wants to come together without force. If you let it move together and take form in its own time, you won’t have to get your hands dirty.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You walk into a room and something shifts. You don’t mean to dazzle — but you do. People lean in. They pay attention. They’re responding to the glow you forgot you were carrying.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll remember how good it feels to be generous with your attention. A stranger, a neighbor, a friend on the fringe — they’ll appreciate that you took the time to interact and acknowledge the moment you share.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Waiting to be in the mood is for amateurs. Not you. You act first and let moods catch up with you. That’s what sets you apart. Energy follows commitment. Start small if you must, but start, and momentum will take it from there.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Even on the hard days, you don’t abandon yourself. You’re willing to feel it all. You’re being brave just by staying with the rhythm of your experience and being present to the beat of your own heart.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There are many things deserving of your attention and you can’t help it that you just happen to be able to juggle quite a bit. You’re not scattered; you’re abundant. You’re not “all over the place”; you’re multidimensional.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You have a gift for fine-tuning. What others overlook, you refine into something that not only works better but feels better, too. Efficiency with style — that’s your signature today.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Leave space. Better yet, make space. Today favors subtraction over addition. What you remove — an old habit, a tired phrase, a cluttered plan — makes the whole system sing and lets the essential part rise to the surface.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There’s no toggle switch for intuition. It’s more like a voice you have to remember how to hear. Ask out loud. Be willing to listen. You already know the answer that is held deep in your being, just waiting to be heard.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The same sensitivity you sometimes consider a liability is actually your superpower. This is just one more data stream to inform your decisions. You’ll pick up on what’s going unsaid and use it to shape a better outcome for everyone.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 11). You’ll make a modest but mighty leader. Because you’ve developed a kind of consistency and care people enjoy, talk about and trust, you’ll be tapped for an opportunity you didn’t expect. Your influence grows in a direction you’ll be proud of. More highlights: a creative risk brings emotional and financial rewards. A reconnection is the stuff novels are written about. A dream you’ve carried privately will take public form. Gemini and Leo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 13, 22, 36 and 50.
