Double Team Psychic Dream
By Michelle Tea and Jessica Lanyadoo

Feb. 4-10

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Can you do it, Aries? Can you give in to the desire to connect in a spontaneous and passionate way with the people around you and stay tuned in to your own little self in a manner that's sustainable, creative, and healthy? It's a great week for both solitary crafting and big communicating.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Taurus, you're in a place that's so emotionally secure it's like the feelings equivalent of Fort Knox. There'll be no stickups, no thieving of your emotions. The exciting part is, now that you're in this solid place, you get to make decisions that would have scared the crap out of you in the past.

Gemini (May 21-June 21)

You're doing great, Gemini, very balanced, and there's a lot to contend with this week, what with the stress and strain and struggle and general mental anguish. The challenge is attaining a freedom that really works. Try fitting yourself into the world rather than twisting the world to accommodate you.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

Be clear about how you fit into the grand scheme of things, Cancer. It's a week for being humble, for choosing the graceful state of humility, not being forced into it by circumstance. This is the kind of humility that makes you feel connected and free – and leaves you with the peace of mind to engage in some needed communications.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Leo, hit the ego-removal switch and see how your expectations for certain outcomes fade away, replaced by a sweet understanding of how beautifully everything is progressing. We see you capable of righteously participating in life's plan for you this week, and that's a righteousness that's dogma free.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Virgo, stop all this bustling about! You don't have to do another thing to make yourself feel more secure. All efforts are redundant; you've put in the work that's needed. Now it's just a question of handling what's already going on around and within you. Don't take on anything else; it'll only serve to distract you.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a crucial time in your personal development, Libra, though it may seem like just another ho-hum, who-cares sort of week. You've been working toward the subtle but significant changes happening in your relationships. Stay present for it, and don't fly off the handle if things get unpredictable.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You know there's a time for everything, Scorpio: a time to be serenely accepting and at peace with your world and a time to start kicking some ass and tearing shit apart. There's a lot of mental energy in your sphere, and the question is when to act on impulses and when to breathe and count to 10.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You're filled with self-understanding and desire, noble Sagittarius, and this is a great week to actualize those inner states, give some solidity to your yearnings. It's a perfect time to begin projects, friendships, affairs, and a new focus on your health. Dash into opportunity headlong, just how you like.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Steel yourself, O mighty Capricorn: this is an important week to stay in alignment with your sense of strength, adventure, and vitality. There's a posse of people aiming their big, gooey feelings in your direction, but your only responsibility this week is to figure out what feels right for you.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This week delivers you a tiny conundrum, Aquarius. You've been working like a dog laying down foundations for future development, and it's time for you to take a break. And you can't! Have you become a workaholic? Ride out this week's confusion from a leisurely place. It's nothing you can't handle.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You know how science has advanced faster than our collective ability to empathize or live justly, giving us creations like the atom bomb? We don't mean to liken your spiritual advancement to a nuclear winter, Pisces, but please beware of getting so caught up in personal revelations that you neglect the basics, like communication. if you don't talk about your problems, you risk becoming them.
