That’s right, the Sun is moving from airy, intellectual Aquarius and taking a dip into the waters of dreamy, emotional Pisces. You’re no longer feeling social and outgoing: Pisces season’s vibe is quieter and more introverted. It’s time to take it easy. The water signs—Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces—are having the best time this season, while mutable signs Gemini, Virgo, and Sagittarius may struggle to stay afloat.

Unlike Aquarius, which has a reputation for being robotic and aloof, Pisces is the most emotionally fluid sign. So it goes without saying that there’s a pretty big change in your mood. Your heart is overriding your head right now, so thinking clearly or communicating efficiently simply isn’t the easiest (especially because of Mercury Retrograde). Also important: Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac, so this is a time to complete cycles, come to conclusions, and ~relax~. That way, when fiery, upbeat Aries season starts in the springtime, your batteries are fully recharged.

During Pisces season, it’s easier to connect deeply with others. When you’re talking with someone and they say, “I feel you,” they mean it in a literal sense. You might find yourself getting super close to a new friend. If you’re with your boo, now’s the time to crank up the romance. If you’re crushing hard on someone, ask them on a date! Your intuition is way stronger now, so trust your gut. If you’re vibing with someone, that chemistry is one hundred percent real. This month is great for all kinds of relationship building, and you’ll have fun just relaxing with your loved ones—as long as you’re able to successfully stay away from Mercury Retrograde dramz, that is.

Okay, there are some downsides to Pisces season. You might feel like you’re drowning in a whirlpool of feels over the slightest inconvenience. Your ability to think rationally is overpowered by your emotions, so you might have a major case of brain fog. Looking at the cold, hard facts isn’t easy right now—you’d prefer to just believe what you want rather than acknowledge the objective truth. Despite Pisces’ easygoing, fluid nature, you might slip into some pretty serious arguments if you feel differently about a situation than someone close to you. Take a deep breath and just swim away. After taking some time to chill, you can revisit the situation and talk it out like adults.

Overall, Pisces season should be a *deep breaths* time. You’re more empathetic and eager to spread ~good vibes~ now. You’re so tuned in to your own mood and others’ that when your friend/boo is feeling down, you’re feeling down too. It’s easy to spend the next month with your head in the clouds, but don’t let the dreamy vibes make you tune out the real world!

Aries

You hate to feel like no one’s paying attention to you, but I have bad news, Aries: You’re feeling downright invisible this Pisces season. Take this month as an opportunity to reconnect with your innermost self, meditate, and rest. You need plenty of R & R, so pamper yourself. Aries season is right around the corner, and after taking it easy, you’ll be able to come back feeling fully refreshed and ready to take on the world.

Taurus

This next month finds you focusing more on your friends, whether you’re making new connections or bonding with your BFFs. Pay attention to the way others make you feel. If you have a friend or two who always seem to be dragging you down, you might want to distance yourself from them and find new ride-or-dies who make you feel nice instead. You want to be surrounded by people who will support you just as much as you support them, right? This is the month to settle into a squad that fits you.

Gemini

Use your imagination and think about the kind of mark you want to leave on the world. What kind of reputation do you want to have? You’re rarely the kind to commit to anything, but Pisces season is a time to stop and focus on your future, especially regarding your career. Be on your best behavior at work, because all eyes are on you. If you can impress your boss, you can expect a raise or promotion.

Cancer

Pisces’ water sign vibes are helping you open up to the world around you. You’re coming out of your shell, connecting with new types of people, and expanding your mind. You can be very set in your ways, but your worldview is changing during this transit. Take a class, make new friends, or travel somewhere you’ve never been before.

Leo

Your love life is a huge focus for you now. You’re connecting more deeply with your partner and having some pretty incredible sex too. If you’re single, you can have some pretty fire hookups now, but don’t expect a fling to stay a fling. Remember, Pisces is the most emotional sign, so even a quickie might end with you catching major feelings.

Virgo

All your one-on-one relationships—like with your best friend, S.O., or boss—are your main focus during this transit. Go on a friend date with your bestie or a date date with your boo. But if you’re single, don’t start a new relationship right now—especially since it’s Mercury Retrograde too.

Libra

Pisces season is pulling your attention to your job and day-to-day routine—boring, I know. It’s time to optimize your Google Cal so you can make your life run as smoothly as possible. This means you’re working more and also taking responsibility for your health. Try signing up for a new workout class or organizing your inbox—the time is right to set healthy habits that will help you live a more organized, productive life.

Scorpio

Pisces season is making life more fun for you, Scorpy. During this romantic, exciting time, you can expect more action, more Tinder matches, and more confidence. You’re usually very walled off from the world, but this transit allows you to open up and express yourself. If you’re an artist/singer/actor, flex your creative muscles and create some especially great work.

Sagittarius

Pisces season’s dreamy vibes are making you supes nostalgic. You’re pretty deep in your feels, NGL, because people/memories from your childhood are coming up in your life and you’re reflecting on the past. Family is becoming more important, and you’re likely spending a ton of time with ’em over the next month. It’s time to stop, look back, and see how far you’ve come. Aries season is going to be a busy month for you, so spend Pisces season relaxing and recharging to get ready for it.

Capricorn

Emotions? What are those? You’re one of the most logical and pragmatic signs of the zodiac, but Pisces season is all about understanding and expressing your feelings. Most of the time, you listen to your head over your heart, but you’re switching it up this month. If you’re able to connect with your emotional, intuitive self, you’ll begin to connect with others in a totally different but more meaningful way.

Aquarius

You’re reflecting on your values and your valuables this month. Money matters are becoming a bigger priority in your life now, and since it’s Mercury Retrograde, you can expect a few surprise expenses to head your way. That means: Stop having so many “treat yourself” days! You’re also getting a better understanding of your sense of self-worth, so you might realize that you’re being treated unfairly or not getting paid enough at work.

Pisces

After a long, hard Aquarius season, it’s finally your time! Pisces season is all about confidently expressing yourself, chasing your goals, and asserting your own agenda. You’re the most emotionally wide-open sign—you absorb the feelings around you. But right now, you’re feeling more independent and doing things for yourself.
