March Eclipses: Taurus

Aliza Faragher

March contains two eclipses: a solar eclipse on March 8 and a lunar eclipse on March 23. Each sign responds to the eclipses slightly differently, but in general eclipses mark beginnings and endings, and often shed a new light on various aspects of our lives.

TAURUS REACTIONS TO THE SOLAR & LUNAR ECLIPSES

TAURUS' SOLAR ECLIPSE: I'M SORRY, YOU'VE BEEN CHOPPED.

Think about your relationships like an episode of Chopped. So maybe your friend underseasoned her salad in the appetizer round. Is that a fatal mistake? But then there’s that other friend who bled all over the plate AND forgot to include the gochujang ingredient in the entree round. Forget it - he had his chance, and now it’s time to chop him.

This eclipse is about friendships for you, Taurus. Are there some that deserve to be kindled and grown, or have they past their expiration date? Harness your energy toward developing the new friendships or the ~*special friendships*~ that are blossoming right before your eyes. Friendships nourish our souls, and this eclipse is getting all the way in there. You never turn your back, Taurus, so we know decisions doesn’t come lightly, but take the lessons of the eclipse to think about which friendships are giving your soul the luxurious treatment it deserves. You’ll know which ones are worth your while.

TAURUS' LUNAR ECLIPSE: WHAT IS TIME?

During the lunar eclipse in Libra on March 23, Taureans are forced to remove the rose-tinted glasses they love so very much. The lunar eclipse provides us with an opportunity to reset, and reconsider what is (and isn’t) working in our lives. Taureans, in particular, will be weighing their use of time. If your work and play (or, should we say, relaxation) ratio has been off, this eclipse will force you to come face-to-face with your time management capabilities. These themes will remain present until the lunar eclipse in September 2016 finally provides much needed solutions.

 

PS: Eclipses are intense, but you're always looking fabulous, Taurus. Weather the storm with a DEERDANA x Align Limited Edition Taurus pin. Show your bull pride.

Each Sign's Guide to Long Term Success with Libra

Aliza Faragher

At Align, we believe that any two signs can make it work so long as they understand each other's personalities. Libra is the sign of partnership, so it's worth investing in some of these compromises for a long term Libra lovefest.

ARIES: HAVE A "WIN IT" MENTALITY

When Aries and Libra set their minds to something, they commit hard. But then... they kind of lose interest. Both signs must have the same outcome here: we're not quitters. With that intention set, you'll be good to go.

TAURUS: FOCUS ON THE FINER THINGS IN LIFE

Taurus and Libra are ruled by Venus, the planet that rules love, beauty, and luxury. These two will appreciate each other's great taste, and should revel in it as much as possible.

GEMINI: GENTLY REMIND LIBRA YOU'RE HERE TO STAY

Libra has a reputation for being indecisive (fair, tbh), and Gemini is not known to be one of astrology's most committal signs. Like not at all. When Libra decides to partner up, they commit hard - it is the sign of partnership, after all - and they'll need to know Gemini is on the same page.

CANCER: CHECK YOUR JEALOUSY AT THE DOOR

Oh, sweet Cancer. Your heart is really in the right place. But social Libra wants to hang out, get out of the house, meet some new people, and you want to snuggle up and #NetflixAndChill. You'd never tell Libra you're mad, you just assume they can tell you want him or her all to yourself. Libra isn't confrontational either, so addressing this jealousy will get messy and emotional and overwhelming for both of you.

LEO: RETURN THE COMPLIMENTS ONCE IN A WHILE

Libra and Leo are natural pairs because Libra is all about "you" and Leo is all about "me." But sweet Libra needs the love to be returned every once in a while, and everyone knows that generous, loving Leo is more than equipped to throw some sweet nothings Libra's way.

VIRGO: GIVE LIBRA SPACE TO SOCIALIZE

Social Libra and introverted Virgo may have a hard time figuring out what makes for the best Friday night plan. Libra can go pretty much anywhere and talk to pretty much anyone, coming away with 10,000 new friends and three job offers, while Virgo is comfortable with their routine. For Virgo and Libra to work, Virgo has to make sure that Libra has their social outlet. Let them Libra out with their besties while Virgo savors their much cherished alone time. You'll both be happier because of it.

LIBRA: COME UP WITH A DECISION-MAKING PRACTICE

Libra 1: What do YOU want to do?

Libra 2: I don't care. I'll do whatever YOU want to do!

Libra 1: No, but I don't care either. What do YOU want to do?

Libra 2: Seriously. I'll do whatever. What do you think?

Continues on a loop for hours and hours and hours....

Ok team, make up your mind. Figure out a way to say "this time I'll decide, next time you decide," and just know that you'll both be happy doing what you think will make the other happy.

SCORPIO: NIP CONFLICT IN THE BUD

Libra avoids conflict at all cost. Scorpio avoids conflict too ... or so we think. They're actually plotting serious revenge in a way that will cut you straight to your core. Libra and Scorpio can be a beautiful partnership, just make sure that before Scorpio heads down Revenge Road, you're addressing issues early on. Before they bubble up and the body count goes up. 

SAGITTARIUS: TRAVEL AND GET LOST TOGETHER

Libra and Sag are two of the most curious, intellectual signs there are. As romantic partners, these two often begin as best buds. Take adventures together, explore, make sure your brains and body both stay stimulated.

CAPRICORN: DEFINE ROLES

Libra is a thinker, and Capricorn is a doer. You both lead in your own way, but you have to set the roles to make this work. Capricorn will need structure and Libra needs balance, but when you figure out the right matrix, you'll be able to make it work.

AQUARIUS: PICK YOUR BATTLES

Aquarius is the zodiac's rebel. You have your beliefs and you stand up for what you believe is truly right. Libra has a similar motivator in life, but reallllly doesn't want to fight about it. You both care a lot about what you think is fair and right in situations, and when it comes to your relationship, remember that you both are doing what you're doing because you truly believe it to be the fair thing to do. Start conversations from there.

PISCES: AVOID THE SILENT TREATMENT

Libra and Pisces are both generous, loving partners who will do anything for each other. You deal with conflict differently. Libra avoids by not talking and internalizing, causing Pisces to feel super hurt and emotional about Libra's non-communication. Pisces, frustrated and hurt but not wanting to hurt Libra's feelings by bringing anything up, will swim away. Silence is your worst enemy! Talking is hard, but not talking is even harder.
