"Satyr" (December 22 — January 19) The sharing and implementation of information is a key theme for the Satyr ahead with a heightened sense of communication. Don't let this influx of mental energy throw you off! While it may feel like you're moving an entire library into your brain, be sure to give Madam Pince a visit and continue to double check your facts. Expect some amazing brainstorm sessions ahead, but be mindful of how you present your ideas. Being considerate with your words might prevent you from wishing you'd eaten a Ton-Tongue Toffee before opening your mouth. "Harpy" (January 20 — February 18) While you may not feel this too strongly at present, Harpy, chances are you'll notice your attitude is becoming (or soon will be) increasingly more optimistic. This positive mood will have people joking you must've taken a Calming Draught! They'll be drawn to you and this vibe, which is a perfect opportunity to keep yourself open to the potential of making new friends and expanding your circles. It can be difficult at times to overlook the shortcomings of others, especially when it feels like someone's stabbed you in the back with the sword of Godric Gryffindor, but showcasing your gracious side by practicing patience and forgiveness for human mishaps will set you up for a successful chapter ahead. Focus on showing your appreciation and offering credit wherever it's due. "Ramora" (February 19 — March 20) Things could start off a little bumpy for the empathetic Ramora, however will smooth themselves out over time even with minimal effort on your part. Not always a big fan of being the most assertive or direct person in the room, you'll notice a greater ability to amplify your voice kicking in before you can say "Sonorus!" This will likely be uniquely useful in the workplace, where you may find pleasant opportunities popping up. To keep yourself from getting drained from your job and being there for loved ones, make sure you take others up on any offers to help in return. Like the ache that comes from riding around on a broomstick too long without a Cushioning Charm, you deserve a little comfort and support as you float on ahead in life. "Wyvern" (March 21 — April 19) Wyvern folk should consider keeping an eye on their social lives. Who are you spending your time around these days? Maybe you need a little more Slytherin energy or a little less Ravenclaw. Not to say the Wyvern needs to start cutting people out, but now's a great time for leaning into new relationships of all kinds and reevaluating who gets to receive your attention in general. If it starts feeling like life's got you under the Cruciatus Curse, take comfort in knowing the pains you experience this season will wind up being to your benefit as the struggles turn into your strengths. "Minotaur" (April 20 — May 20) There's a lot of positivity surrounding the early parts of this year for the Minotaur. Has Divination class brought any glimpses of what your future could look like? Now's the time to set some plans for the road ahead and you'll find yourself successful while following through. Modesty is key for the Minotaur at present, who should therefore be wary of pride and selfishness when communicating with others. Don't let perfectionism be the enemy of what's already good! Not everything in life is meant to be Outstanding or Exceed Expectations all the time, and our "flaws" can sometimes be, become, or lead to some of the most beautiful aspects of life. Allow yourself to know that you're good even when things are feeling just a little bit more Acceptable than you'd like. We all make Poor choices now and then, and all have our Dreadful days. It's okay to feel like a Troll sometimes! "Doppelgänger" (May 21 — June 20) Dearest Doppelgängers, you sure are in for some favorable times ahead! Maintaining focus on current projects (whether already started or in the works), will have you see things falling right into place. Remind yourself periodically that you're not in the middle of a Wizarding Duel! It might feel like others are cramping your style or invading your space, but who cares if someone doesn't like your new dress robes, or if their ideas are a little outlandish? In order to accomplish your goals without necessitating a Time-Turner, keep an eye toward diplomacy by negotiating what's fair and attainable for everyone. "Siren" (June 21 — July 22) Now’s a great time for the Siren to shift focus away from their usual devotion to others, instead turning that love around on their own needs. What new forms of self-life or self-expression are bubbling up? Whether Metamorphmagus or not, it’ll feel like you have ample opportunities for transformation ahead! Keep in mind while doing your reflective work that you may come face to face with any previous relationship to or current attraction toward the Dark Arts inside yourself, learning what to maintain and control versus what’s best to conjure up and cast aside. "Chimera" (July 23 — August 22) Not gonna ask you if you’ve become anyone’s Secret Keeper recently, but that’s the kinda intimacy with loved ones the Chimera might expect as we move further into the new year and you strengthen loyalties around you. Rather than continuing to plot things out, now’s a great time to start implementing and following through with any plans you have for the road ahead, just remember to avoid unnecessary conflict, which could be triggered out of stubbornness or by feeding into the trivial matters of others. Haven’t got two Silver Sickles to rub together? This effort toward teamwork could prove to be financially lucrative! "Banshee" (August 23 — September 22) Feelin’ those hard working Helga Hufflepuff vibes from you, Banshee! I’d love to say you can expect the toil to die down sooner than later, unfortunately if you’ve got your crystal ball handy you’ll see this coming year could bring just as much as the last. That being said, you’ll be happy to know the payoffs will come sporadically throughout and you’ll find it to be far more than worth the energy you've put out. Although it wouldn’t be prudent to keep yourself under an invisibility cloak, a focus on discretion is suggested toward your greatest level of success. "Lycan" (September 23 — October 22) Continuing on with a theme of self-care from before, you may find some great chances ahead to snuggle up in your coziest Weasley Sweater, spending some well deserved downtime enjoying your own space, and making plans for the upcoming year. While a period will soon come for Lycans to open up and be honest with others about whatever might be weighing on your shoulders, take these next couple weeks to set any big discussions aside wherever possible. When the timing is right to send that handwritten letter off, your favorite collared scops will be waiting in the Owlery! "Aswang" (October 23 — November 21) Nargles aren’t after you, Aswang, but eccentricity is! It shouldn’t come as a shock if kooky people, places, and things start crossing your path more and more for some time, if you don’t start feeling somewhat bonkers yourself. There’ll also be important business needing your attention. Don’t allow yourself to become like the Quaffle falling lazily down into the pitch due to a slowing charm. Instead, keep your focus on any important meetings or tasks at least for the immediate future. No “Arresto Momentum” for you! "Thestral" (November 22 — December 21) Things might have been a bit stagnant for you recently, Thestral, but after settling into this time focused on staying put, you could find you’ve been falling into a bit of a surprising crush with comfort and security. To a degree! Don’t worry, this doesn’t mean you’re cursed to wait patiently in the Full Body-Bind or give up your adventurous ways. Why not try using the usual routines in unusual ways? Sometimes it’s nice to reach into a bag of Every Flavor Beans and not know what you’re gonna get, but for now you may find it particularly satisfying if you treat yourself to more calculated pleasures. |
