“Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, you are right.” (Henry Ford)

Like meditation or exercise, affirmations are a helpful tool to shape our outlook on life.  While I’m sure you know what your zodiac sign is most known for, these affirmations tap into the often neglected — but still true — side of each zodiac sign.  We hope your zodiac affirmation will help you remember you are a beautiful, wonderful, multi-faceted soul!

Don’t forget to check your Sun, Moon, and Jupiter placement!

Aries:  I am heard. 

Aries, you are always ready for action because you have such strong instincts.  However, these instincts can be difficult for an action-oriented Aries to communicate so others can understand.  You, Aries, are not as confident and comfortable with speaking as you are with doing (especially compared to Virgo’s thorough strategy or Leo’s charismatic leadership).

Sure, you’re courageous, but…

Aries, you are heard.  You are understood.

Taurus:  I am needed. 

As the stable and dependable of the zodiac, Taurus, you sometimes see yourself as the unseen, unnecessary, and boring ones in the room (especially compared to the other zodiacs).  You tend to make yourself into the proverbial “wall flower” and downplay the positive affects you truly have on your friends and environment.

Sure, you’re dependable, but…

Taurus, you are needed and appreciated. 

Gemini:  I am wild. 

Gemini, your greatest fear is that one day you’ll reach the end of your finding-interesting-things-in-the-world quest, and you fear that you, yourself, could become boring and predictable.  However, take heart — your personality makes this outcome impossible!

Sure, you’re wildly curious, but…

Gemini, you are, yourself, a wild and fascinating creature. 

Cancer:  I am strong. 

As the legendarily empathetic sign that you are, you always get the crybaby rap, but you should remember that it takes strength to survive the absorption of everyone’s emotions!  You truly are the “I feel your pain” sign, and that’s an exhausting and draining task!

Sure, you’re emotional, but… 

Cancer, you are strong. 

Leo:  I am worthy. 

Always fighting the battle to prove yourself, Leo, you can forget that your real worth is within you.  Your accomplishments and self-worth don’t just drop off, they accumulate with everything you do to make you the person you are.  You live it, and you don’t need to prove it to anyone!

Sure, you are a star, but…

Leo, you are worthy.

Virgo:  I am enough. 

Virgo, you are always driving that self-improvement highway — you probably singlehandedly keep the self-help books section alive!  Which is such an admirable trait, but you need to remember not to be so self-critical — you are always, already enough.  No matter what step along the road to self-improvement you are currently on, this is a journey, not a destination. 

Sure, you’re hardworking and analytical, but…

Virgo, you are enough. 

Libra:  I am smart. 

Libra, you are sometimes known negatively as the sign that can never make a decision!  You need to remember that being diplomatic and peaceful is not a bad thing, and it takes thought and finesse to pull it off.  It can be lovely being around someone who doesn’t have to die on every hill, all the time.  And your diplomacy can not only be a wonderful thing, but sometimes it’s the necessary and best way to handle a disagreement.

Sure, you’re diplomatic, but…

Libra, you are smart. 

Scorpio:  I am safe. 

You are the powerhouse, the strong, true friend who always knows what’s what — but you’ve learned that, though others want to lean on you, you can’t trust that you can lean on the strength of others.  Ultimately, Scorpio, you find yourself hiding behind your walls — you are always waiting for the other shoe to drop.  You don’t want to get hurt, and that is absolutely understandable.  But, when you’re so busy protecting yourself and powering up your shields, you can forget that you are safe in the present time.

Sure, you have an inner strength like no other, but…

Scorpio, you are safe. 

Sagittarius:  I am wise. 

You travel bugs are rarely asked for advice; however, there is a reason you are represented by Temperance in tarot!  You have to be pretty savvy to venture out into the wild beyond with confidence.  Sagittarius, your ability to get along with all cultures and types of people, as well as your continuous curiosity, has made you wiser than you realize.

Sure, you’re the traveler, but…

Sagittarius, you are wise. 

Capricorn:  I am secure. 

Capricorn, you workaholics are known as workaholics for a reason!  You worry that just one day off — or one moment not fighting for what you want — will mean the entire process will fail.  Breathe, and try to “trust the process.”  Remember, you are secure, and life as you know it will not collapse if you stop to smell the roses once in a while.  You may even find that one day off will actually improve the journey, not risk its progress.

Sure, you’re disciplined and driven, but…

Capricorn, you are secure. 

Aquarius:  I am brave. 

Aquarius, you see yourself as always on the outside, never fitting in.  You feel this is further hindered by all your questions and insatiable curiosity.  However, no one seems to realize that the fact that you are still asking questions and standing up for yourself — even when you feel like everyone is against you — is an act of bravery.

Sure, you’re quirky and unique, but…

Aquarius, you are brave. 

Pisces:  I am capable. 

You dreamy sign, you — you can believe that dreams will always be better than anything you could accomplish in real life — and this frequently leads you to procrastinate and give up on your real-life goals.  But realize that you are capable — yes, in real life!  You can do anything and everything you set your mind to.

Sure, you’re intuitive and imaginative, but…

Pisces, you are capable.
