Cut Weekly Horoscope for the Week of March 22

The sun entered Aries at the end of last week, marking the beginning of spring: the days will now be longer, the air will be warmer and the world will be filled with new possibilities. On Sunday morning this week, Venus entered Aries too: Now, the realm of movement and action will look more beautiful, more fascinating, more irresistible than the realm of feeling. This is a week to feel that you are coming back to life and your powers. If you want, this week will offer you a feeling of newness, of potential, of propulsion, of forward movement.

Lately, it seems that the world has been designed to personally bother you. It seems that his whole life has become a difficult obstacle course, with nowhere to go to relax. It is difficult to be yourself when you are so concerned with dodging traps and jumping obstacles. This week, however, some of the pressures and difficulties will ease and some of your depleted energy will be replenished. This week, the world can feel at home again – not a landscape of difficulties and barriers, but a place of beauty too. A place where it is possible to live.

It is impossible to live in this world for a long time without internalizing, somewhere along the line, some cruel ideas about you. The atmosphere is full of poison and it is impossible to keep all that poison away. Perhaps you have been led to believe that you are weak, that you are ordinary, that you are not important. Perhaps you have believed that you do not deserve the love you desire. This week will bring you the chance to wipe all the dust off your head and to believe in yourself with a brilliant and surprising joy. This week, you can do anything. You can make your life wonderful.

It may seem like you’ve been impatient for so long – impatient for the days to be warm again, for the world to become beautiful again, for life to be sweet, meaningful and interesting again. This week, your impatience will vibrate in your heart with a new and burning urgency; it may seem frustrating, but it is actually a sign that there are still things worth waiting for, worth waiting for, worth looking forward to. Everything has been so bad for so long, but this week, it is possible to find yourself slowly, magically, falling in love with the world again.

In collectively difficult times, it may seem wise to keep your personal feelings carefully hidden. It may seem unpleasant, even dangerous, to express your personal desires. But this week, the rules are changing slightly. This week, no one helps to hide the real you, pretend you don’t need anything or make other people guess. Saying what you need is not going to make you look selfish, strange or too loud. At the moment, speaking directly about your desires and ambitions is not a sign of self-centeredness, but of generosity and good faith.

You are getting tired of planning everything so carefully, of maintaining such strict control over the actions and events of your daily life. This week, you may feel strangely impulsive. You may feel anxious to move quickly, no matter where it leads, eager to put your ideas into practice as soon as you have them. This is a week to be as reckless as possible. This week, as far as possible, let yourself be guided by impulses. Let them gain momentum as you prepare to change your life.

Sometimes bold action requires you to give up your normal, careful accuracy. Sometimes bold action requires you to risk making real mistakes. But it can be worth it, because of the feeling of freedom it gives you, because of the feeling of power over your own life. You don’t have to be perfect to be worthy and good. You don’t have to be totally unchallenged to have a valuable life. You can survive mistakes; you can survive surprises. What is more important now is to allow yourself to simply act.

This is a week to combat all the petty little feelings – distraction, resentment or discouragement – that try to take care of you in your moments of silence. This is a week to fight the belief that you have nothing more to offer, that you have become a diminished version of yourself. All the best about you is still there, and this week, you can remember that. You are as brave as you ever were, so sharp, so ready. All the strength and assurance you need is still available: all you have to do is call it back. All you have to do is use it.

Even if you’re not afraid confrontational, open disagreements with the people you love most can still seem like cracks at the base of your relationship. Open conflict with those you really care about may seem like a sign of bigger, deeper, invisible problems. This week, however, is a week to expose your conflicts outdoors. You don’t have to let all sadness stagnate inside you or mold in the basement. Instead, you can say what you want to say, what you feel. You can open the curtains and let the sunlight in; you can allow frankness and honesty to work as cleaning magic.

For so long, you have kept so many feelings so tight inside you. You maintained such firm control over so much sadness and anger that they would not swallow you up. This week, however, it is possible to relax a little. It is possible to relax the muscles and loosen the grip. This does not mean that the dark feelings have disappeared, only that it is possible to regain some of your old confidence. Even if the world hasn’t healed yet, you can still accept the sweetness this week offers.

It is so difficult to accept the good things when you are convinced that you do not deserve them or that others deserve them more. This week, however, questions about who it is and who it doesn’t deserve won’t do any good. They will not help you to see the world more clearly and they will not help you to live a better life. Give yourself permission to enjoy what you can this week – permission to enjoy the sun on your face, to enjoy the feeling of being alive. Those little moments of pleasure can give you the strength to continue living and to make this world a better place.

It’s easy to get carried away by what doesn’t really matter to you. It is easy to get carried away by other people’s opinions and projects, carried by the current of others’ dreams. This week, however, all that background noise may disappear. This week, you can reconnect with what’s important to you. All other people’s watchful eyes will suddenly become insignificant. You are living your life and no one can stop you. You are brave and important, and no one has a mind as wild and free as yours.

It is a useful and beautiful thing, to dissolve the false and unnecessary divisions between people. It is a powerful form of magic to focus not on the ways we are different from each other, but on the way we are all the same. This week, however, the limits can be useful. This week, conflict can remind you of who you really are. You are one person among others, but you are also deeply and magically you. This week, let the conflict and the difference remind you of what you want. Let him remind you that you are important, as a whole person, on your own.
