Aries
You're going to be feeling fired up around all things related to your career and reputation over the next few weeks. Look at what you've accomplished thus far with a critical eye. It's time for some renovations before you race up the ladder. Think quality control and refinement. How can you be first, and better than before?
Taurus
There may be a craving to get away from it all for a while, Taurus, just to recharge your batteries. Try engaging in activities that make you feel connected to your sense of faith.. What do you believe in and how can you manifest those beliefs in your day-to-day? Booking a flight for inspiration would be ideal, but books and peaceful places to meditate can work too.
Gemini
Hey Twins, Mercury Retrograde had you reviewing all your relationships over the past few weeks but now it's time to take the next step. There's a demand to actually show up and commit to your partnerships and projects. If you play your cards right by opening up and being honest, you may find financial and emotional rewards coming your way.
Cancer
Venus arrives to sweeten your relationships as you commit to self-discipline and diligence, especially concerning whoever and whatever you choose to partner with. If there have been underlying fears around committing to others, you'll now be given opportunities to nurture yourself and those close to you. Your existing relationships may see a boost of harmony or if you're currently solo, a new love may show up to play.
Leo
It's the little things that will be bringing you pleasure while Venus activates your desire to enjoy to your routines and physical health.

Virgo
The time has come for the Virgins to play! The surge of energy prompting you to get flirty and creative is clear. A little bit of fun every day adds up, you may even start to enjoy it. Create a schedule of fun things to do throughout Venus' visit through your House of Romance, children, and creativity. Don't be afraid to get messier and childlike, Virgo. When you do, new doors open up in response.
Libra
You'll find yourself working harder than before to make your home and private life more comfortable. Could be an excellent time to clean out your closets to toss anything that's no longer to your taste. Beauty can be simple and practical Libra so try not to overthink what it is you need to feel peace on an instinctual level. Remember you don't have to break the bank, as Venus in Capricorn admires frugality.
Scorpio
You're pouring energy into learning new things. Anything that lights up your mind with curiosity is worth spending more time on. Invitations to attend social gatherings, lectures, and neighborhood events deserve your attention. The heavens are urging you to communicate and embrace new ways of perceiving your environment. Take notes, Scorpio, the big picture will reveal itself to you in time.
Sagittarius
Hoping you haven't blown your budget on gifts and holiday parties because much of your focus over the next few weeks will be about getting your coins in order. Venus will bring some measure of luck, but not without steady, realistic efforts on your part. Set a big goal, then scale it down a notch. The results rests on just how committed you are to seeing it through.
Capricorn
Happy Solar Return, Sea Goats! It's your season and what a season it is to be! Your home planet Saturn is visiting you for the next 3 years to restructure your world, challenging you to grow up and be an authority on you. Lovely Venus may urge you to refresh your look, beautify, and pamper yourself. Look in the mirror and kiss yourself each day. First step to taking over the world is taking care of and loving the self.
Aquarius
Solitude can be a good thing Water Bearer, even for a social creature like yourself. Consider this sudden love of peace and tranquility a call to get clear with your unconscious desires. Daydream, drift, volunteer to support those in need of your brilliance. Until then, turn up the music, doodle some more, and pay attention to the insights being delivered to you.
Pisces
Time to fall in love with a new hopeful wish, Pisces. Find a set of like-minded individuals or an organization you can throw your heart into. Anything that allows you to work toward a common interest that benefits everyone. Allow yourself permission to explore new ideas about who you are and what you're willing to create with others.

How This New Bond Repair Line Transformed One Mother's Postpartum Shedding Into The Ultimate Curl Comeback
This article is in partnership with SheaMoisture
For Crystal Obasanya, her wash day woes came shortly after her son did. The beauty and lifestyle content creator had been natural for years, but during postpartum, she quickly learned about one reality many mothers can relate to experiencing: postpartum hair loss. “Sis had thinning hair. Sis had split ends,” she shared about her hair changes in a Reel via xoNecole.
Over a year into her postpartum journey, Crystal explained she also had dry, brittle hair, noting that keeping it hydrated before pregnancy had already been “a task.” The 4C natural recalled going from thick hair during pregnancy to a thin hairline due to postpartum shedding as “devastating.” When it came to strengthening and revitalizing her hair, the new SheaMoisture Bond Repair Collection was just the thing she needed to elevate her damaged coils to revive and thrive status and get them poppin' again.
SheaMoisture is providing us with the cheat code for transforming dry and damaged strands into thriving and deeply nourished crowns. By unveiling their 4-step hair system, the SheaMoisture Bond Repair Collection is equipping you with the tools to reverse signs of hair damage caused by protective styling, heat, and color and is uniquely formulated for Type 3 and 4 hair textures.
The haircare system revives damaged natural hair by repairing and rebuilding broken hair bonds through a game-changing combination of HydroPlex Technology and AminoBlend Complex, a unique blend of fortifying amino acids formulated specifically for curly and coily hair. Scientifically proven to reduce breakage by 84% and make your hair six times stronger (vs. non-conditioning shampoo), the collection infuses your hair with the nourishment it craves and the strength it deserves.
All five products of the SheaMoisture Bond Collection are infused with natural strengthening ingredients like Amla Oil and fair-trade shea butter. The collection consists of the 4-step breakage-fighting Bond Repair system, as well as the Bonding Oil.
“When trying it out, I quickly noticed that my hair felt revived and renewed, and my curls were so hydrated,” Crystal said while using the Amla-infused Bond Repair Leave-In Conditioner. “I also felt my hair strands were stronger.” So much so that the influencer felt brave enough to get her hair braided shortly thereafter. “I can definitely say that I will be keeping it in my hair wash routine,” she added in the caption of her Reel about her positive experience using the products.
