Luck favors the brave and the bold. When the stars align, doors open before us.

The key to getting everything you want in life? Seize the day to create the reality you most desire. In this sense, we are working in tandem with the universe rather than sitting back idly just hoping things fall into place.

This week starts off with energy that could bring shocking twists of fate and sudden surprises. Each day that follows, we’ll march toward the “Luckiest Day of the Year” on May 18.

Breakthroughs, windfalls, new beginnings and gifts from the universe could come your way personally or professionally. But remember, you always have the power to “make your luck” — so take a chance, ask for a favor and reach toward a hope or dream close to your heart.

Read on for what to expect this week, according to your zodiac sign.

Aries (March 21 to April 19)

In recent weeks, there’s been so much activity around your financial life, Aries. The days ahead will further emphasize this, but you also could hit the jackpot!

Sudden shifts around income, possessions and resources could all pop up — but the key now is to strategize ways you can build your pot of gold. Consider launching a product or service, raise your rates, court a lucrative client or apply for a job with a higher salary.

A big win around wealth could be at hand. Luckily, as this happens, you’ll also be feeling more confident as your sense of self-worth flourishes, too. Treat yourself and those who you love to something extra special.

Taurus (April 20 to May 20)

The week ahead will be like you’ve finally found the end of the rainbow, Taurus. In truth, you’ve been radically evolving since 2018, in a major growth period over the past year.

A major breakthrough personally or professionally is likely to manifest before your eyes, something close to your heart and soul that will leave you positively euphoric. This is the most important week in the coming twelve years for you to plant seeds, take chances, make a promise or take action to create the life you’ve always envisioned.

Luck will rain down on you in all ways like showers of gold. Make a list of your most important desires, be confident in yourself and go forth to set the world on fire. You are ready to be crowned like the royalty that you are. Your golden touch will be envied by everyone now and in the years to come.

Gemini (May 21 to June 20)

You may feel as if a guardian angel is carefully guiding you everywhere that you go this week, Gemini. It’s as if you keep landing in the right place at the right time.

You’ll be eager to go forward and charge into new territory, but you’ll be surprised to find a visionary insight, breakthrough or intuitive hunch if you embrace stillness this week. It can be something that changes the vision of life forever.

You may also find yourself able to heal a deep wound, fear or trauma this week, one from the past allowing you to find closure once and for all. Some of you may even find that someone behind the scenes has been rooting for you and secretly clicks the pieces into place to guide you to the attainment of a goal close to your heart.

Cancer (June 21 to July 22)

A festive and exciting period lies ahead, Cancer, and it could be one of the most celebratory periods you’ve had in years.

Living your life to the fullest will be on the top of your mind, as you feel like your heart is radiating like the sun. A major aspiration may now be in reach, more money from your career could be on the table and you could find that many people who love and support you are rallying to lift you up.

Yet, don’t sit back twiddling your thumbs hoping everything will fall into place! Draw up a vision board of what you want your lift to look like now and in the years ahead and ask for favors from people in your network who may be able to open doors for you. A soulmate may step in to aid you or you may meet a new one now.

Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22)

As the clouds part this week, Leo, you’re ready to step further into the spotlight. You’re especially favored around all career goals now.

Some of you could feel like a lucky breakthrough skyrockets you higher and further on your professional ascent. However, the key to maximizing this energy is to focus on how you can roll the dice to win big or become crowned with more power, fame, success and victory.

Apply for a better job, seek a promotion, promote yourself to the public, seek an alliance with someone more powerful than you or find ways to move your career in the direction of your choosing. You won’t have this much luck in your career for over a decade, so take an important step forward now.

Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)

The universe is embracing you and patting you on the back now, Virgo. You are being further encouraged to pursue expansion and growth, both in personal and professional ways.

The more that you seek to shake up your routine, step outside of box and soar, the more that your life will pick up positive momentum now and in the years ahead. Regardless of your current routine, it’s time to look at what lies out of reach and how you can open yourself to new possibilities and vibrant opportunities.

Consider learning new skills, immersing yourself in fascinating wisdom, connect with spirituality or venture into new territory. If you can, plan a trip now or in the year ahead and you will find that your life changes in wondrous ways.

Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)

The support you need could be offered by the universe this week, Libra. You could find that you feel like you’re on more steady ground.

It appears that a breakthrough you’ve been hoping for is here, especially if you’ve been requiring aid from a partner or secondary party. This may appear in the form of wealth — perhaps a salary increase, an approved credit line, paid off debt, news of a mortgage or venture capital, an inheritance, assets or investments increase or more benefits from an employer.

Don’t just sit back and wait! Try to unearth the jewels beneath the sand. Investing now could provide long-term benefits.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)

As the heavens shine this week, Scorpio, you could find that one of the most important periods in your relationships appears before you.

With so much luck on your side in relationships, you could find that happy news or a breakthrough comes to you in regards to a significant other in business or love. For instance, you could make long-term promises, move in, get engaged or find a soulmate. You can prosper and grow from teamwork, so put yourself out there!

On a professional level, if you’re looking for the right associate — like an agent, trainer, assistant, or beyond — be on the lookout. Contracts and negotiations signed now could also be blessed with a winning touch.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)

You’re truly a well-oiled machine now, Sagittarius, with many irons in the fire. The luck of the week ahead could shimmer in many areas of your life.

Specifically, happy news could arise around one of the following themes: employment or job matters, coworkers, staff, pets, routines or even physical health such as improvements around fitness and diet. Take swift action to improve these areas, which will allow you to reap many benefits now and down the road.

Apply for a new job if looking, pitch a new client or launch a product. On a more personal level, if you can adopt a pet or spend time with one of your own, you’ll feel particularly close and notice your souls are aligned.

Last, start a new pattern in health, fitness or diet and you could feel more confident and filled with significantly more energy.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)

You will feel like your heart has been set on fire and you are spinning in a daydream this week, Capricorn!

So much happiness is ready for you, but you must first step up and be ready to claim it. Romance, fertility, creativity, hobbies, expression, sports and children could all bring such deep fulfillment to you now.

When it comes to love, a milestone moment could pop up — or perhaps, you could even meet a soulmate partner if single and looking. No matter what, though, the key to maximizing this iridescent energy is to prioritize what fulfills you on the deepest of levels and seek to immerse yourself in it entirely.

These are the moments that make life so beautiful, so open your heart and let the light in!

Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)

Prepare for your emotions to be especially peaked this week, Aquarius. But luckily, you’re likely to be in a truly joyous, peaceful and loving mood especially as the days go by.

You may feel deeply grateful now, as if you are truly aligned with the universe. The week ahead is all about you appreciating the past as well as seeing positive growth around home, family, real estate or domestic matters.

If you have nothing big planned, you could be inspired to have a sweet cook out or dinner party — or perhaps, get busy gardening, redecorating or relaxing at home. Choosing to build your relationships with your kindred now could provide long-term happiness and trust.

Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20)

You’ll feel the spice of life this week, Pisces! You’ll be eager to have fun, laugh and live in the moment even more than usual.

Exciting opportunities to pursue new adventures and ideas will surely be presented to you. You could find that you are more curious and fascinated about people and the world. If you’d like to travel or flex your communication or intellectual skills, you will feel more enlightened and invigorated in all ways.

Also, a new offer is likely to present itself this week. You could be ecstatic about how your life is going in beautiful and fresh new directions.
