To make things a bit easier, Aries, try to make music part of your daily routine. Listening to your favorite artists can be great when you're feeling lost or misunderstood.

Known as the maverick of the zodiac, Aquarius often has out-of-the-box ideas and viewpoints. They spend a lot of time wishing for recognition.

Try to find a way to create that balance for yourself, Cancer. Speak words of encouragement to yourself and show others how it's done.

Scorpio (October 24–November 21) -

Scorpios are often considered prickly and difficult to get along with. Indeed, it can seem like they are always finding the bad in other people and trying to fix them.

Scorpio (October 24–November 21) -

In fact, this tendency to want to try and fix everything around them is just a Scorpio's inner child wanting to be loved and nurtured. Scorpio, remember that you don't have to martyr yourself.

Pisces (February 19–March 20) -

The idealistic inner child of a Pisces often struggles against the more realistic adult version of itself. The child dreams of changing a world that the adult believes can't be changed.

The best thing to do, Pisces, is to just pick out what works for you and let everything else slide by. You should find you feel a lot more calm.

Virgo (August 23–September 22) -

It is great to have high standards and goals, Virgo, but don't forget to enjoy the ride. Appreciate those failed attempts as well as all the progress you make.

© Shutterstock

Capricorn (December 22–January 19) -

Capricorns are very driven and ambitious, but it's not all about pleasing themselves. Often, Caps are too concerned about keeping everyone else happy.

Capricorn (December 22–January 19) -

To keep your inner child happy, Capricorn, take the pressure off yourself sometimes. Look around you to appreciate what fun life can be.
