NEW YORK FASHION WEEK

Your Fashion Week Horoscope: Friday, February 8

February 8, 2019

As you head to shows and presentations from Brock Collection, Kate Spade New York, Jason Wu, and Jeremy Scott be aware of the what the stars have in store for you.

 

Aries

The ball is in your court today, or at least it seems to be. You’re much more focused than yesterday, and you have more energy to check off items on your agenda (something that makes you feel warm and content inside). Use this energy boost to your advantage, but don’t be discouraged by any potential setbacks in the realm of career. It could be someone at work putting a damper on your mood, or having to choose between your own comfort and someone else’s opinions on a particular matter. Whatever it is, stay civil and try your best to come to a compromise.

 

Taurus

The quiet fire that burns beneath your surface might not feel so tame today as you’re forced to make a decision between retreat from the chaos and powering through a hard work day. You can make it through with some adjustments, just make sure not to let the energy get the best of you. You may have the sense of becoming undone in ways. When that feeling bubbles up, it is best to isolate yourself from the situation so that you’re able to collect yourself and your thoughts on your own time. You are not coming undone, dear Taurus, but honor your feelings and commit to taking care of your needs first and foremost.

 

Gemini

Today can be pretty chill until it isn’t anymore. All it takes is one person saying something to trigger you into a rabbit hole of self worth issues and power struggles. Take a deep breath, and know that the only thing you can control is your reaction to the situation. There is no need to grasp onto a false sense of power, even when you feel yours is slipping away. Stay in the Gemini mindset of discussion, and talk about how you’re feeling in clear and concise terms. If it isn’t directly with the person you’re having issues with, call up a trusted confidant to hear you out. This tiff won’t last forever, but the act of processing how you feel in a healthy way matters in the long run.

 

Cancer

You’re looking to close in on a big deal or finish up a long term project at work this week, and you’re almost there! Although a lot of your focus has been on career lately, it’s so important that you don’t neglect your obligations to the people close to you, including your partner or other clients and close relationships in your life. This might feel like somewhat of a burden, sure, but who has been there for you, supporting your endeavors since the beginning? That isn’t to say you don’t appreciate and acknowledge this, but it could mean a lot to them to hear it from you around this time. Otherwise, they could be feeling a little left behind and might have something to say about it.

 

Leo

While you’re in better spirits today, you’re thinking big-picture. With so much change over the last few years, you could be wondering, where are you headed next? Perhaps it’s time to break out of the mundane, and go see a different part of the world. You have the travel bug, and it can have you feeling pretty restless. Concerns about your daily routine and lifestyle get in the way of your daydreams about far-away adventures, but for good reason. You have serious obligations at home that need tending to, but there must be a way to figure out how to get out of town for a bit to nurture your soul while still making sure you keep up with the mundane activities you’re responsible for maintaining. Take some time today to figure out how to go about that.

 

Virgo

This is a gentle reminder to get your taxes done sooner than later! Today is a great day to get started. Money may be on the mind, which is totally cool, because you can be really good at tackling your to-do list when it comes to that. While examining your finances, you may find you have indulged a little more than you previously thought, OR you could find you didn’t spend much on fun and games at all last year. How does that make you feel? It can be difficult to give yourself permission to have a ball like in years past, and you may be asking yourself why. Re-examine your finances but also look at how much you’re allowing yourself for fun, because you deserve to have some!

 

Libra

Don’t be surprised if everyone annoys you today, Libra. It’s totally ok to not feel up to socializing as much as you have in the past few days. You need time to retreat, but home might not feel particularly comfortable right now either. Lean into the discomfort, and ask yourself, why? What about your current circumstances don’t feel in alignment, and also ask yourself what does. This back and forth with yourself might be hard to moderate, so if you feel called to reach out to a friend or partner for some support, you totally should. Just make sure it’s someone who can hold proper space for you and won’t trigger you further.

 

Scorpio

Ahhh, nasty work emails, the bain of your existence. Don’t let it get to you today, Scorpio, and if it does, take some time to respond. You can be quick with the clap-backs, and if you aren’t careful, you may regret your quick retorts. Take extra care in your communications today at work and while going about your day. You’re in power-mode and might not be in the mood to take other’s feelings and lives into much consideration today. When you’re in go-mode, you’re checking things off your list like nothing else matters. Slow it down some and try not to ruffle too many feathers. You don’t have to move as quickly as you think you do.

 

Sagittarius

You may be feelin’ yourself today Sagittarius, and you should fully support yourself in doing so! Anything that brings you joy and makes you feel warm inside is a plus, so don’t skimp yourself there. Will a bit of indulgence hurt your wallet today? Yeah, it probably will. That’s on you to decide what’s best in the situation. You can try to have it all, or succumb to the potential guilt of over-spending. Chances are, you’re working off of impulse, and you’ll deal with the consequences later. Just don’t say you weren’t warned!

 

Capricorn

Today you’re really wanting to get some work done around the house, and you have a lot of energy to do so. Continue to check things off of your to-do list, but keep in mind you might not be able to get it all done in one day, and that’s ok. You’re really only racing against yourself here, Capricorn. No one is forcing you to hyper organize your home except for you! Now, you decide if you want to over-work yourself for the comfort of having a tidy home space, or if you’ll be easy on yourself today and structure your duties accordingly.

 

Aquarius

Some news you receive today might throw you off balance for a bit. It probably isn’t as bad as it seems like it will be in the moment, so keep that in mind. You’re impulse control might be off, and a small piece of news could set your mind into overdrive. It’s important that you figure out how to stay grounded in your body at this time. Spinning thoughts can leave you feeling like you’re becoming undone in ways, like your insides are spilling out. Know that you’re ok, it’s brain chemistry messing with you, and you’ll be able to find your way back home in no time. Be extra kind in how you speak to yourself today.

 

Pisces

If you’re going to spend money you don’t necessarily need to spend, why not purchase a pass to a group class of some sort? Group work is beneficial to you on so many levels, and you get a lot done in these settings than you might even realize. For you, group work is a powerful means of manifestation, as you can pick up on the needs of the collective and use that information to better your understanding of your life and that of others. Money comes and goes, but the experiences you gain from how you choose to spend that money will always stay with you. Don’t guilt yourself for spending a little extra on a workshop or gathering that will pay you back ways money will never be able to.
