handy horoscopes
what's in store for your sign this summer?
aries
MARCH 21ST APRIL 19TH
Ah, beautiful bold Aries. You’ll have a ball over the New Year. As the proactive, confident sign, you’ll likely find yourself convincing mates to get off the couch and go out. Just don’t take it to heart if they’re not feeling as enthusiastic as you. And please, for the love of God, resist the urge to flip the board if you happen to lose Monopoly to your little sister.
cancer
JUNE 21ST JULY 22ND
You’re the crustacean of the zodiac, so technically, Aussie Christmas is made for you! But as a sympathetic, nurturing and kinda moody sign, you could get a little overwhelmed during tense family events. Hopefully you’re
heading to a watery destination for the holidays, so you can take a relaxing dip in the sea if things get a bit heavy. (A scented bath works, too.)
taurus
APRIL 20TH MAY 20TH
The silly season is your time to shine, Taurus. There’s all that delicious nosh to nibble on, and all those parties to dress up for. (Hello, everythingshowers!) Just don’t forget to take a little break between all the social and family outings – otherwise, you might end up snapping at the people you love, and nobody wants to deal with a stubborn bull during their holiday break.
leo
JULY 23RD AUGUST 22ND
Fiery Leo! Your loved ones will appreciate your big, loyal heart this season. You thrive on being the centre of attention, which will serve you well when you treat everyone to thoughtful gifts and entertain them with energetic dance-offs – just be aware that it could also rub some people the wrong way, particularly the less confident signs in your life.
gemini
MAY 21ST JUNE 20TH
Well well well, if it isn’t our favourite social chameleon. You can adapt to any situation, sweet Gemini, so we’re not worried about you feeling socially awkward at any Christmas parties these holidays. Beware of any unnecessary drama, though – being part of it might be fun at the time, but it could come back to bite you later when the collective mood isn’t quite so festive.
virgo
AUGUST 23RD SEPTEMBER 22ND
We have no doubt that you’re going to be booked and busy over the summer, Virgo, because you’ve probably already organised every social event down to a tee. We know you’re a perfectionist, so try to remember to take a deep breath when your pals are running late for whatever you’ve planned, and be patient when people forget how much effort you’ve put in.
libra
SEPTEMBER 23RD OCTOBER 22ND
Your kindness will be much appreciated by the people around you who tend to get a bit flustered during this heady season. However, don’t let folks take advantage of your people-pleasing tendencies – you don’t want to burn yourself out during a time that’s meant for relaxation and celebration. Recharge by taking a moment to appreciate the beautiful things surrounding you this season.
capricorn
DECEMBER 22ND JANUARY 19TH
You’ll be tempted to spend the holiday season running at full speed, Capricorn, but now is not the time. Put your hardworking tendencies aside so you can really enjoy the festivities with your mates and family members. To make this a little easier, create a holiday routine for yourself that incorporates ways to chill out among all the other stuff you want to get done.
scorpio
OCTOBER 23RD NOVEMBER 21ST
Have you set yourself some big goals for 2024, Scorpio? That was a trick question – of course you have! Don’t be too hard on yourself if you don’t achieve them right away; your persistence will pay off as the year goes on. Use the holidays as an opportunity to spend time with the people you love, because they love you, too. We promise.
aquarius
JANUARY 20TH FEBRUARY 18TH
As a keen problem-solver, you’ll likely find yourself coordinating Christmas lunch and working through family dramas these holidays. Your main challenge will be learning to put your (probably correct) opinion aside and just go with the flow. Spend some time out in the sun, do a bit of travelling and soak up the summer – it is your birthday season as well, after all.
sagittarius
NOVEMBER 22ND DECEMBER 21ST
Your passion and adventurous spirit won’t go unnoticed this season, Sagittarius, since you’re a pro at bringing life and energy to any event (especially if there’s an opportunity to be spontaneous). Be careful not to overstep the boundaries, though – you can be a little fiery and even reckless at times, which could intimidate some folks, and blunt honesty isn’t always the best policy.
pisces
FEBRUARY 19TH MARCH 20TH
Ooh, look at all this time you suddenly have to be creative! Which new hobby will you try out first, dear Pisces? Try not to spend too much time overthinking about the best way to spend your holidays – you don’t want to get caught in a daydream and miss it all. Just tag along to whatever your more organised pals have planned and enjoy the ride.
