The return of the column -- Sayuri espinoza, 7th grade

Aries
March 21 – April 19

As a new moon comes, the old one falls.
Reflect on regret and past mistakes.

For in the end, the lesson will be divine,
And help you through the rigid twine

And with the lesson comes great fate,
Ambitious dreams for you await.

Taurus
April 20 – May 20

Though uneasy, you must push past,
To share your thoughts, your hopes, your laughs.

It’s your time to have some hope,
Spend time with good friends who align with your vision.

Make all that’s been wrong right again,
gain some closure, even with the old friends.

Gemini
May 21 – June 20

Freedom will come, soon enough,
But not without wounds resurfacing from your past.

Focus on you, your connections, your future,
and healing the wounds from that cast.

Journal your thoughts and woes, and soon enough,
The path will start to show.

Cancer
June 21 – July 22

Nourish and flourish your body and mind,
Set intentions for both your physical and mental well-being.

Don’t worry about making others happy; focus on you.
Set your boundaries and make them clear,
and let all your worries disappear.

Don’t view responsibility as stressful or worrisome,
Instead, they it us the stability in your life.

With this, I leave you.
Be brave and fierce, and remember you are always first.

Leo
July 23 – August 22

You may be sensing a slowdown in your life,
it’s okay to not be productive at all times.

While the pace may be new,
It’s an opportunity for you to learn patience and flexibility.

It’s a chance to start fresh,
Use your gut and intuition as you start on this path.

It’s okay not to have your next moves planned out,
Be present, and soon you’ll know what to do.

Virgo
August 23 – September 22

It’s time for you to dive into your future,
along with the present and the past.

Find what it is you held so dear,
your interests, thoughts, and friendly peers.

Hike along a familiar path,
Gain some closure at long last.

Once that’s done, remind yourself,
Of what it was that made you so you.

Libra
September 23 – October 22

Reach for the sky,
Go out and shoot your shot,
no matter how far it may seem.

Confess to the one you like, go apply for that job,
Make your dreams a reality.

Don’t let the fear of the unknown blind you,
For nothing is known, only found out.

Scorpio
October 23 – November 22

What would you do if money were no object?
If money were just a piece of paper with no value?

If it weren’t for money,
Would you pursue your passions? Your hopes, your dreams?

If not for money,
Would you see that life is more than a means of achievements and wealth?

If not for money,
How would you spend your time?

Set a new mindset for yourself,
One where money doesn’t dictate every aspect of your life.

Sagittarius
November 23 – December 21

While you baffle in the spotlight,
Enjoy their presents; maybe it’s time for you to work on yourself.

Go back to the past and rekindle that flame,
The one that held your passions and name.

The one where you could draw and paint,
Write with ease, and sculptures weren’t plain.

The one where you could dance and sing,
The one where you could act and create a scene.

Walk the paths you used to love,
See the places where you used to laugh.

Capricorn
December 22 – January 19

Don’t worry about your flaws,
Your looks, or anything you deem ‘imperfect’about you.

Fill your life with laughter,
Talk to those who make you feel better.

Healing is a process that can’t always be done alone,
Relying on people may be the way you want to go.

Aquarius
January 20 – February 18

Maybe it’s time to make some new connections,
Ones that involve things you’re unfamiliar with.

Connections that will last,
Unlike the ones from your past.

Connect to your roots,
Where you come from, what you know,
and what you have yet to find out.

Pisces
February 19 – March 20

It’s time for a change,
A new chapter for you to write.

Though you find comfort in what you have now,
It’s time for you to reflect on your
past and make a new life at long last.

Confront the shadows in which you ran,
The ones where you couldn’t surpass.

It’s time for you to escape your shell,
Jump into things without fears creeping in.

"The continuation of a column." -- Star Schainker, 9th grade and Declan McMahon, 10th grade

Aries (McMahon)
The holidays are here
Don’t let Mars retrograde keep you
Submissive in your place.
Break bonds and travel
Enjoy what life has to offer this month

Taurus (Schainker)
this world is rubbage
you're so good at making this muck your medal
value from the debris of the day’s disasters
there’s too much pressure in your throat from holding your tongue
your lungs, your mind too full
release or you’ll explode slowly
emotion should not be smothered by your own sensitive hands

Gemini (McMahon)
This month is a cornucopia
Wealth and romance truly abound
Your social life can only flourish if you let it
Don’t slander your opportunities.
Towards the end, Mercury is in retrograde.
It’s only a cliche if you let it be,
keep your wealth close to your chest.

Cancer (Schainker)
Your hands are so clean yet they have barely lived
Your fingerprints can learn from mistakes
Dip your feet into imperfections
You can evolve from your errors,
But you can’t forever live unphased by wrong.

Leo (McMahon)
Look out in all sectors
This could go very well or terribly
Watch out for the full moon
Shields up for a reunion, welcome
Or otherwise.

Virgo (Schainker)
Your bones should be familiar,
your skin, your ribs — cozy.
Maybe you don’t you feel at home in yourself yet
And you long to find one in other things or other people.
Can you be alone and satisfied?
You yearn to feel whole and yet everything you grasp for isn’t fulfilling.
You have no reason to be critical, learn to love where you reside.

Libra (McMahon)
Follow the urge
Until it leads to rewarding connection

But be wary of your impulses
Keep them under tight control
December 7th rocked you, I know
So use it

Scorpio (Schainker)
Emotion isn’t the enemy.
You bottle and you hide,
let feelings guide you to ease your everyday
Let anger be caring, defend yourself and those you care for.
Celebrate sadness and anger and work to heal

Sagittarius (McMahon)
This month you are fully in control.
Do not forget that.
Make sure to use it to your advantage
December 21st will undeniably bring change
Of any kind

Your financial objectives are low hanging fruit
But you’ll still need to stretch your ambitions farther

Capricorn (Schainker)
Current conflicts serve nothing but motivation
For the finest redemptions
Don’t stall over remorse or pity
Know that what is now will be useful in the future
Remember that your burdens are temporary
You will recover.

Aquarius (McMahon)
Your social life will soar above the rest of the signs this month
Take heed of that warning
Use it
Make personal connections
But especially business ones

The best connections can be made this month
They will pay off for the best financial dividends

Pisces (Schainker)
The world stalls just as rough and spiteful,
but you have stronger eyes now.
Clear vision in absence of cowardice
Still daunting yet less difficult
The challenges are meek in comparison to how they are managed.

"The revival of the column."--Bella Schainker, 8th grade

Aries (March 21-April 19):
You’ve been gifted glass eyes.
What’s been unseen will be
clear to you and for now
ego pushes against logic.
You yearn for a core, something to grab onto—
a distraction.

Taurus (April 20-May 20):
There is no need to admire
what you find uncommendable.
No reason to give attention
to what you not love and respect.
Find fondness in what you were,
and are fond of, lay to rest
worry on your shoulders.
Anxiety shouldn’t eat at your joy.

Gemini Pt 1 (May 21-June 20):
Nothing is permanent, and that’s fine.
Take your mind off the big picture,
you change and so does the world--
even if you change at different paces.
Forgive yourself for growing
at your pace. Even when it feels like it,
the world is not leaving you behind.

Gemini Pt 2 (May 21-June 20):
Your attention can be tamed,
unnecessary thoughts are exactly that--
catch your mind before it wanders away
and focus on what needs to be done.

Cancer (June 21-July 22):
Don’t ask for directions,
be lost. Subsist with
just being. You don’t have to
understand, there’s no need to get it.
Find yourself learning
from your questions
rather than their answers.

Leo (July 23-August 22):
Each day doesn’t have to be a performance.
It isn’t selfish to not smile.
Give yourself your own attention:
stand in the mirror,
there is no need for a crowd
until you can be happy alone.

Virgo (August 23- September 22):
Don’t take advantage of yourself,
don’t take yourself for granted.
You don’t have any reason
to be so critical. Give yourself
your own approval, the only
validation you can truly believe

Libra (September 23- October 22):
Sometimes doors are left open
for you to walk through. Sometimes
doors are locked, leaving you to find
the key. Sometimes there is no door
and you’re left to build it. Don’t wait
for the door to open itself—work
to find a way to push it down.
It’s up to you to get through.

Scorpio (October 23- November 21):
Think of your thought’s heartbeats
soft or frantic, loud in your ears,
scattering your brain.
Look past your consciousness,
find ways to access the world
without the clutter.
Each thought doesn’t need
a life of its own.

Sagittarius (November 22- December 21):
Think of days as a verb,
a 24 hour unit, but also
an action: a frayed string
of all your thoughts, movements
until they meld together, mostly
forgotten. The action of a day shouldn’t
take all your energy. It should
be a string you can rely on, control
without severing.

Capricorn (December 22- January 19):
You are constantly adapting,
changing yourself to better fit
the situation. You only need
to change your perspective,
not your personality.
Stay conscious of your surroundings,
but allow yourself distance
for the richest lessons.

Aquarius (January 20- February 18):
You trip into an abundance
of luck. How fortunate
with fortune. Consideration
and sympathy can lead you
to great opportunity.
Just don’t grow too comfortable
with your chances.

Pisces: (February 19- March 20):
If you climb a mountain for praise
and still aren’t happy, descend
and go a different direction.
It’s not the end of the line to hit a wall.
You have to find a way
around life’s obstacles, even
if there’s no applause.

with the poetic stylings of
Sunari W-a and Nyla Gill

Aries (March 21-April 19th) - Nyla

your charm and humor
the best pair you left on the shelf
it’s time to blow off the dust
grab the gold they forgot about
and catch the shine you’ve been waiting for

Taurus (April 20th-May 20th) - Sunari

your pinky to my pinky to yours,
reach out by the hand of you
and reconnect

Gemini (May 21-June 20th) - Nyla

the key to taking home everything on the table
is to disregard the hero’s story
instead stand in place of sun
without conquering
and claim something

Cancer (June 21st-July 22nd) - Sunari

as mars pulls away,
the brain will fill with something
heavier than memory

Leo (July 23rd-August 22nd) - Nyla

Fall out of orbit
feet-first, open palms
If you can listen to the little things
If you can disturb the universe
You can be in sync without exhausting yourself

every color has its complement
within the variation
is today’s place

Libra (September 23rd-October 22nd) - Nyla

Don’t worry about where it starts or ends
Scatter the inspired
Don’t be afraid to share what grows
With this, comfort will become a carried thing

Scorpio (October 23rd-November 21st) - Sunari

yellow stuffed, warm
leave no floor
undanced

Sagittarius (November 22nd-December 21st) - Nyla

You let the clouds hold it all
So the impossible seems like nothing
Once in a while go back to the core
And thank yourself

Capricorn (December 22nd-January 19th) - Sunari

this relationship, holy
this relationship
a sacred thing

Aquarius (January 20th-February 18th) - Nyla

Anywhere you enter
Keep the gates, doors, windows ajar
See all the inner cracks and spots you missed before
See how a breeze blowin in can change you

Pisces (February 19th-March 20th) - Sunari

your spine, realigned
now, a new way
to carry the self

until even the sky glows green

learns how to climb the walls
remember, you are not the prey.

- Molly Gardener

Aries: Should all else fail, go to sleep. Everything feels so much more forgiving in the morning sun.

Taurus: The heart has a remarkable memory. You will love again.

Gemini: The person you are today might be unrecognizable in a few years, and this is such a good thing. Every day should be a resounding chorus of, “I am learning and unlearning. Today is the closest I have ever been to myself, today is the closest--so far.”

Cancer: Write a love poem for your hands, for all the ways they keep holding. Even when they're cold, even when they're shaking.

Leo: Your life will never be yours if you always keep waiting for a standing ovation. Learn to love yourself when your makeup is runny and your breath is stale and there is no one left to smile for.

Virgo: There is something in you that is fierce and savage and haunted. Let it teach you how to be unafraid again.

Libra: You are the most lovely of things, but life will only ever seem as beautiful as you think you are. I hope you have the happiest of birthdays.

Scorpio: You make someone want to exist. This is not a burden, and neither are you.

Sagittarius: You, more than anyone else, know the difference between running away and running towards. Find yourself a home.

Capricorn: Stop making art you are not proud of. What I mean is, start being proud.

Aquarius: There is a pool of anger resting underneath your tongue. Spit it out before it leaks into every conversation.

Pisces: There will always be mountains and cathedrals that will make you seem small in comparison. I hope you do not feel unholy. You are everything you need to believe in.
