And don’t forget — the view from the top is worth every effort.

Balance is key, and you hold the pitcher.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Tarot card: The Devil
Capricorn, you've drawn The Devil. But hold on, it’s not as ominous as it sounds. Consider it a reminder to loosen up those tightly laced boots and dance a little! Life isn't all work and no play. Sometimes, it's about breaking free from self-imposed chains. So, kick off those shoes and let your toes wiggle. The grass is just as green on the carefree side.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Tarot card: The Star
Aquarius, The Star is your card. It's about letting your inner light shine, like the refrigerator light that never fails to brighten up midnight snacking. Keep nurturing those dreams of yours, even when they seem as distant as Pluto. Just remember — the night sky wouldn’t be as beautiful without the stars, and your world wouldn't be as vibrant without your dreams.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Tarot card: The Moon
Pisces, you've drawn The Moon. It's not just about howling at the night sky, but about embracing your intuition. It's like reaching into the cookie jar blindfolded and pulling out your favorite one. Trust yourself. You have the inner wisdom to navigate through life's foggy moments. Embrace the mystery, it’s part of the adventure.
