Virgo: August 23-September 22
This is the season where you flourish and grow.
New beginnings are on their way and they are moving quickly! Make sure not to miss any signs or intuitive feelings. Always remember: if you think it's a sign, then IT'S A SIGN! Don’t delay any fun opportunities through hesitation or fear. This is your month and you better start acting like it.
Song: I Think I Like When It Rains - WILLIS
Libra: September 23-October 23
Happy early/late birthday! Even though the days are getting shorter and nights are darker, I want you to remember that color and fun still exists. Here goes a little fashion advice for you Libras: Wear more color!! Experiment with some fun patterns and step outside the ordinary. I know you strive for perfection but I know you are yearning to be your authentic self!!
To be cringe is to be free…and that's okay.
Song: Don’t Know Why - Norah Jones
Scorpio: October 24-November 21
Hello Scorpio! I know for a fact you are so excited that autumn has begun and your season has arrived. We are all excited for you!
You’re a tough one, but I know my Scorpios very well. Don't be afraid to let your inner sweetness come out this month. Join a new club and participate in more events this semester (I’m totally talking about CMNSU events) I know you want to!
Song: Wicked Game - Chris Isaak
Sagittarius: November 22-December 21
Hello there, wise one… this semester is not ready for an academic weapon like yourself.
I don't even want to imagine what your google calendar looks like, I already know you’re booked up until 2027. This season you will be super locked in and it's always a good idea to share your wisdom! Reach out to classmates and study buddies and turn those 3AM midterm grind sessions into fun bonding experiences.
We all want a friend like you Sagittarius, don't gatekeep yourself please.
Song: Don’t Dream It’s Over - Crowded House
Capricorn: December 22-January 19
Have you even heard of a little thing called journaling? I fear you need to start.
The start of the semester can get overwhelming quickly and I know you want to do everything and finish all your tasks ASAP, but you need to breathe, pick up a pen, and let those feelings out. Don't let the pressure get to you. It will all work out.
Song: Duvet - bôa
Aquarius: January 20-February 18
Watch out world…an Aquarius is coming.
I have a feeling change is on its way for you. If you have been thinking of dyeing your hair, getting that tattoo, redecorating your room, or even buying that new pair of shoes…THIS is your sign!
Song: There She Goes - The La’s

Pisces: February 19-March 20
Trust your intuition Pisces. That weird gut feeling is NOT random and you know it. Especially if that weird gut feeling is telling you to keep an eye on the CMNSU Instagram account… you know big things are coming and we do too.
We can’t talk here… email me.
Song: Fade Into You - Mazzy Star
Aries: March 21-April 19
Aries…Bold and ambitious. This is the season for you to not be afraid to reach for the stars and dive headfirst into new experiences!
Your funny classmate who you’d like to be friends with? Talk to them! That instrument you’ve been meaning to learn how to play? Pick it up and learn some new chords! This is not the time to be afraid of reaching out for what you want. Always remember, closed mouths don’t get fed…start reaching for your goals NOW!
Song: Kiss Me - Sixpence None The Richer
Taurus: April 20-May 20
Autumn for a Taurus is like a warm cozy blanket: you feel safe and comforted.
You love taking time to yourself everyday to enjoy a rainy evening with your favorite warm drink, and get lost in your thoughts. Just remember not to dwell too much on past experiences. I know it's tempting… but trust me it's better to stay in the present. Put on your favorite movie and enjoy the season.
Song: For Emma - Bon Iver
Gemini: May 21-June 21
Gemini…we love you, but stop confusing everyone around you!
This month I want to dare you to try to stick to a certain routine, choice, etc. Spontaneity is fun in the summer, but for the fall, let's slow down and take things one step at a time. Try some new hobbies and stick to them!! I promise it will be worth it once you’ve finally mastered them.
Song: Bad Habit - Steve Lacy
Cancer: June 22-July 22
Hello fellow Cancer! This fall we will be defying all stereotypes and NOT falling into a cycle of seasonal depression. Yes, I know the sun is setting at 7 PM, but that does not mean you get to curl up in bed for hours and lose motivation!
It's time to step outside your comfort zone and make more of an effort to be outside (even if it’s cloudy and chilly). We (yes WE) are going to be thriving this season. I believe in you.
Song: Linger - The Cranberries
Leo: July 23-August 22
The semester is back in motion, and I just know you’re loving all the back-to-school drama. Maybe lay low for a bit and take some time for yourself. Stay home, read some books, watch some movies, and focus on school. It's time to relax a little.
Little tip: Having Letterboxd isn't an excuse to show off how many movies you’ve watched this month. Not everything is a competition!
Song: Rhiannon - Fleetwood Mac
Check back in December for our Winter Edition! Happy Fall!
