keep moving.

I'm choosing to believe this fabricated magic from Madame Clairevoyant this year.

Libra: This week you can feel so present in your own skin. You can feel your feet on the ground, you can feel the air on your face, you can hear the song of the world in your ears. You can feel peace if you need peace, you can feel strength if you need strength, you can come into your own. You can find yourself in storms, you can find yourself in mountains, you can find yourself in sweet foggy air. Try to be gentle with the people you care about. Try to be tender with your own self.

(Words by Madame Clairevoyant and illustration by Jen May)

Don't forget

"Don’t forget that you’re a real, living person. Try to feel gravity holding onto you, try to feel the water and the bones in your body, try to feel the ways you’re held and anchored in your own world."

-- Madame Clairevoyant 

The bodies that orbit you

Gemini: This week the world’s going to move in loops and repetitions. This week, the world’s going to waken memories buried deep inside of you, thoughts that you haven’t seen in a long time. This week is going to be about charting your path, and the orbit you move in, and the bodies that orbit you. This week is for dealing with the patterns and the recurring dreams and the ideas that just won’t leave you alone. Be as brave as you can. Plant flowers that will come back, year after year.

-- Madame Clairvoyant 

Taurus

This week, you might feel like a tangle and you might feel like a mess and this is okay, this is good. It’s a week for trying to embrace your tangled core, for working to embrace your bright messy brain. This is where your best thoughts can come from; this is where your best work can come from, this is what can light you up. Tell stories that don’t have an end and stories that don’t have a plot; sing songs that don’t make sense; draw pictures with so many colors you could almost get a headache.

-- Madame Clairevoyant 

"Watch cracks in the sidewalks, the clouds in the sky, the lines in your own skin; look at everything the world shows you like it matters."

-- Madame Clairevoyant

"This is a week for being careful, for being intentional, for keeping your ear to the rhythms of the ground you walk on, and the rhythms of your tender beating heart."

-- Madame Clairevoyant

"Libra: This week, when the weather is bad, or when your boss or your roommate or your parents drive you so wild, or when everything you’re working on feels tiring or difficult or dull, work on protecting the bright parts of yourself, every weird thought, every burst of color, every bit of wild joy in your heart. Guard the things that make you special and the ones that that make you strange; let the sun reflect off of your weird angles and let it light up your days."

--Madame Clairevoyant

This Year.

Libra: This year’s going to be bright and fast and really great for you, full of friendship and good news and hard work. Feel this as the gift that it is and still, don’t forget to let yourself be dreamy. Make time to laze around alone, and to go on long rambling walks, and to sit under trees or swim in the ocean or let strange spinning thoughts grow inside you. Make time for beautiful things, make time for the weirdest parts of yourself. This year, spend time with babies or spend time with animals. This year, practice being very tender.

-- Madame Clairevoyant

I'm going to work hard to make this one come true.

Libra

This week, you’re maybe going to feel a little fragile, like you’re soft, like you’re bending, like you’re barely even solid, like one hard word could crack you right in half. Don’t try to make yourself unbreakable, don’t try to replace your softness with stone or steel. Just do what helps you live, do what helps you get through the day, do whatever you can to remember how good it is to spend your days in very small ways, sometimes. Listen to songs in other languages, listen to songs without words.

--  Madame Clairevoyant

"This week, after you’ve fed yourself and taken a nap and paid your rent, use all the energy left over for watching the way your take up space in the world, for being gentle with the people around you, for being as generous as you can with your good thoughts. It’s a week for listening and doing favors and sharing everything you can. It’s a week for cultivating feelings of kindness in your own heart, for tending to them carefully, for watching them grow in your heart like a garden, like a field, like a forest."

-- Madame Clairevoyant
(This was for Aries, but I think its more of a one size fits all!) 

Libra

Just for now, just for this week, forget all your maps and forget all your plans and forget every detailed drawing you’ve made of the future, forget the picture of the life you’re supposed to have. It’s not about throwing yourself into chaos, it’s not about getting rid of your plans for good, just that this is a week for softness, it’s a week for feeling sweet and hazy, it’s a week for unwinding, a little, for loosening up the parts of you that are too stressed, too serious, to look at the mountains or watch the sky or go to the movies in the afternoon.

-- Madame Clairevoyant 
 "I am not a real astrologer or a real writer, and so it’s strange and great that people actually read these..."

It is exactly why I read these!! I'm living by this one this week.

Libra

This is a week for going to the beach and going to the pool and taking long warm baths. This is a week for living like your whole body is water. It’s a week for staring into oceans and lakes and faucets, for watching water swirl down the drain. This week, let your thoughts go clear, let your dreams go blue, let them all fill with salt, let them flow down mountains, let them flow to the sea. It’s a week for being loose, it’s a week for being in motion, it’s a week for being wiser and weirder than you can be on solid ground.

-- Madame Clairevoyant

Pisces: This is a week for letting yourself get carried away, for letting your weirdest self handle things (for a while). It’s a week for dreaming about running away, for dreaming about cool water and outer space and magic, for getting lost in books on the bus, for getting lost on long sunny streets in places you’ve never been to before. This week’s going to be full of luck, and you’ll be protected, safe, as you go a little bit wild, as you take new risks, as you move through your life like it’s bright and exciting and unfamiliar. Listen to Prince.
