Can you get lit without eclipsing yourself? We’re in the middle of “eclipse season,” which kicked off January 31 with a Leo full moon eclipse. On February 15, we’ll get a “booster shot” from an Aquarius new moon eclipse. Eclipses are tipping points, with the heavens appearing to push us over the edge in some way. How can each sign mix the right celestial cocktail without drowning our raging inner beast in too much calm, cool, and collectedness? Read on.

Aries 
Take charge when others won’t decide to act, but then chill when a decision’s set.

Taurus
Appreciate that you are all that and a bag of chips, but you’re in for a shock if you believe you’re the only dish.

Gemini
Speak to understand and be understood, not to bedazzle, belittle, or bullshit.

Cancer
Don’t let fear make you greedy. Trust that the cosmos will give you enough.

Leo
Lavish your best on folks who love you, but don’t twist yourself in knots over humble haters.

Virgo
True humility is when you serve without making too much fuss. Roll up your cuffs and get in there.

Libra
Indulge in life’s lusts and pleasures in order to delight yourself, not just others.

Scorpio
Use green-eyed envy to remind you of the desires you’ve denied yourself.

Sagittarius
Forgo brutal honesty for being radical with considerate candor.

Capricorn
Go for yours, but leave some for others.

Aquarius
Shine, dammit! Honor your faults, but don’t hide your own greatness behind them.

Pisces
Do good for yourself or another without judging the act’s value, and you’ll gain momentum to do even more.
