School Starts Soon: Time for Yourself!

With summer coming to an end, the kids will soon be back to school and you’ll have more time to be by yourself. How will you handle the switch from being mom to being on your own?

Not being the most domestic of signs, Aries will sigh with relief and get cracking on personal projects that have been on hold. Being themselves is their greatest skill.

Taurus enjoys the security of having kids around and dislikes changing gears, so it will take them some time to get into their own space. Once they get back on track, they’ll be self expressive and creative.

Gemini gets bored with too much mom time and will happily disappear into a pile of books. They also have many friends to catch up with, which they’ll enjoy because they aren’t great at being on their own.

Cancer will be sad that the house is empty, but once they clear that emotional hurdle they’ll have plenty of activities to enjoy -- just for themselves.

Leo loves family and being the center of attention, so they’ll need to find a new group to entertain. They can’t stand flying solo.

Virgo doesn’t mind peace and quiet, but they’re all too good at displacement activities that don’t really feed their inner souls. They need to look within and discover what they really want.

Libra will be pleased to have the house back to relative calm after all the summer chaos. That said, they really need a buddy to have fun with. A personal project for them is really a joint venture.

Scorpio has a rich inner life that hasn’t been fed with so much going on over the summer. They’ll relish me-time and develop a plan to fill their hours.

Sagittarius will be hankering for intellectual stimulation after weeks of noise, games and chatter. They can be easily scattered, and need to focus to find themselves.

Capricorn will start to organize a winter social schedule with great glee. They’re great at turning their thoughts into reality.

Aquarius tends to regard their kids as friends so they may feel bereft as their social circle shrinks. But their confidence will have them busy in no time.

Pisces tends to be swept along on the tide of events so being without outside pressures can be unnerving for them. They need to be quiet to boost their self confidence so they can follow their inner voice.
