It’s Time To Conquer Your Cognitive Dissonance

It is very rare that what we need and want are the same thing. These differences are brought to the forefront by the stars, shining a spotlight on how our external actions conflict with our internal desires. We require the. The oppositeWhat we thought we needed. 

This looks like growth in the shape of rest for many signs. Nature has periods when it is dormant activity. You can’t have one without the other, despite what these signs would like to think. This cognitive dissonance is especially common in fire signs. 

For others—namely, air signs—they’ve been conflating confrontation with self-advocacy. Both phenomena can exist in totally different realms of the human experience. It requires patience, empathy, and thick skin. 

What cognitive dissonance is your sign working through this week?

Last week’s New Moon in Pisces was a time for reflection and relaxation. This week, we see the Moon begin to wax from the 7th house of Relationships into the 10th house of Social Status. Take stock of the areas in your life that need to be changed. What have your past actions been?

This week, take advantage of the productive energy of the waxing Moon. If your actions have lasting effects, a lunar opposition will occur to Pluto at the end. Trust your intuition and be true to your truth.

Leo

July 22 – August 22

leo zodiac symbol

Are you really unable or unwilling to lower your standards? Or are you trying to change your perspective? You can navigate your life confidently because you are confident in yourself. But it can also make it easier for you to get lost. 

On a good day, this doesn’t affect you too deeply. On your worst days (like this week), stubbornness can get in your way of happiness. Acknowledging that you’re in the wrong certainly shrinks the ego. You have plenty of options.

Virgo

August 22 – September 22

virgo zodiac symbol

Being an over-thinker has the advantage of having a great sense of foresight. The struggles you’re facing right now are laying the groundwork for future success. But of course, you already knew that, didn’t you? The stars are aligned in your favor—stay on this path. 

These challenges will help you to improve your self-sufficiency and strength. There may be moments when you second guess yourself. This week, trust your intuition. You aren’t prepared for this by accident; you’ve already put in the work.

Libra

libra zodiac symbol

While you’re typically accustomed to keeping the peace, the stars are suggesting you shake things up this week, Libra. Venus, your ruling planet is in a strong conjunction with Mars. Mars’ aggressive energy bolsters your ego, helping you navigate your life more confidently. 

The conjunction forms an harmonious trine with Ceres. This suggests that the energy you harness this weekend will nourish your soul (and help to nurture others). This week offers you the chance to change your outlook.

Scorpio

October 23 – November 22

scorpio zodiac symbol

You must be able to focus and work with great intensity. But it comes at a price. On one hand, you can bring about great, positive change. On the other, you can quickly become a fixture in one area. Indeed, your ferocity can oscillate between positive and negative at a moment’s notice. 

This can make your internal self-assurance very fragile. This unstable self-image makes it easier for you to go from high to low at will. This week, be aware of your intentions and take steps to improve your awareness. Are your actions promoting the positive, or worsening the negative?

Sagittarius

November 22 – December 21

sagittarius zodiac symbol

The glory of success can sometimes blind you to reality, Sag. And this week is no exception. You’ve convinced yourself that the only way to be successful is to be constantly productive. Sometimes, our most amazing periods of growth occur when we are at rest. 

You have put all of your energy into a particular endeavor, whether it’s love, work, or other. As a result, you’ve started to burn out and lose some of your spark. Sag, you can rest assured that the fastest way to stop your growth is to not give yourself a break.

Capricorn

December 21 – January 20

capricorn zodiac symbol

Your intelligence and insight make it easy to identify what your soul desires and needs. It is difficult to realize your desires because of your fear and vulnerability. Consequently, you’re left feeling used and unfulfilled. 

If you can’t bring yourself to depend on others, you can still take baby steps. This week, focus on yourself—your needs, goals, and desires. You are the only person you can depend on.

Aquarius

January 20 – February 18

aquarius zodiac symbol

Just because something is different doesn’t mean that it’s better. And just because a situation has changed doesn’t mean it’s an improvement. This can be a difficult lesson to learn if you value novelty more than all else. 

Focusing on one thing will make you more productive. There’s nothing wrong with seeking out something new, but where you seek it out is important. Do you want to make a lasting change or just get rid of boredom? You can make a decision by doing some self-reflection.

Pisces

February 18 – March 20

pisces zodiac symbol

Neptune, your ruling planet, has been keeping the wool under your eyes. Mercury and Jupiter will lift the veil this week. The stars have laid a path for you to take, but they can’t force you to walk. You’re going to have to pick up where they left off. 

It will be difficult to get rid of your rose-colored glasses. You’ll likely feel uncomfortable and out of your element, but you’ll benefit from it in the long run. You’ve been long overdue for a change in perspective—one that’s far more self-serving than self-destructive.
