This is even more important for those of you who feel like you need to be “productive” all of the time. Being productive can be great—yet how do you define “productive”? Perhaps you believe that adventure, obtaining spiritual insight, and taking vacation ARE productive activities. They engage a different part of yourself and recharge you for the more linear- oriented tasks that society seems to favor and reward. Take the moments of meditation, of dreaming as you sleep, of enjoying a hot bath, to let your mind unwind and form new neural passageways. It’s not just luxury, it’s crucial. The game could be changing so rapidly right now. If you want to be able to engage in it, you have to have a fresh mind, one that is wiped clean every now and then. The Mercury retrograde in Taurus, as well as the sun and Venus in Taurus, all in your house of creativity, make playing in your creative world super beneficial and lucrative (either now, or planting seeds for the future).

Dylan’s advice: Sounds like you’ll be feeling the summer break vibes hard this month, Cap! If you’re going through finals, the stress of graduation, or any other draining process this month—take a step back. Don’t wait for the end of the cycle, when you’re totally spent, to take care of yourself. Imagine taking your Sunday off from studying, or overcommitting, and spend the day doing your nails, taking a long walk, or drinking an iced coffee in the sunshine. You could see this as a feeder for your productivity, rather than a detractor. Be way more loose and don’t cram your schedule this May as the school year wraps up. Watch your self-generosity help in your success, because it really does!
