Whatever you do this week—run, sip, swim, sing, craft, or cry happily at moonlight—Excelsior Springs is your stage. Let your cozy hometown and quirky adventures be your spark. Enjoy!
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Aries, you’re on a mission: speed, noise, victory. Start by powering through the Team 5k Running Group, then dominate obstacles at ESCC Speed & Agility Camp. Cap your competitive streak by obliterating chairs at Rage Cave (smash responsibly). Come Tuesday night, dominate Music Bingo like it’s world war trivia.
Pro Tip: Bring celebratory glitter to Open Mic—wild applause guaranteed.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Taurus loves comfort and style. Begin with buttery donuts at Veterans Coffee and Donuts, stroll the Farmers Market (tasting everything), then get glam at the Ribbon Cutting for The Empowerment Studio. Wind down with candle vibes from Happy Hour at The Candle Bar.
Pro Tip: You’re the unofficial candle connoisseur—people will ask for tips.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Gemini, you’re two-for-one social mixing concept. One minute you’re paddling through Toddler Swim and Home School Swim, next you’re at Open Mic Night—inventing folk songs about grocery lists. Bonus: your dual-personality charm lands you ace spots at both BYOC Crafting Day and Messy Mania.
Pro Tip: Tell Sandi at Molly Roberts Studio that your phone charger is a Gemini—just for fun.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Cancer, your heart is the community glue. Channel that at Family Game Night, Parents as Teachers Playdates, and Messy Mania. Later, melt under soulful acoustic notes at Lyrics on the Lawn—tears optional but plausible.
Pro Tip: Bring extra clutch for sugar-fueled toddlers. Snacks = hugs.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Leo, the spotlight is your playground. Reign supreme at the July Downtown Merchant Mingle, then crush the stage at Open Mic, and serenade the crowd with flare during Live Music with Matthew Mulnix. You’ll glow brighter than any tanning salon.
Pro Tip: Wear fabulous sunglasses to ribbon-cutting—even indoors.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Virgo thrives on structure—and subtle flair. Tackle the Hospital Board Meeting armed with fact sheets, then glide into the Planning & Zoning Meeting with charts. End with tidy beads at BYOC Crafting Day—collected, labeled, perfect.
Pro Tip: Intimidate friends gently at chess club via spreadsheet-backed chess moves.
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Libra, you bring softness to chaos. Paint hearts at Kids Art Workshop, stroll the Farmers Market, then flash elegance during Fabulous Flirty and Faces spa glam. Balance all this with evening serenity at Happy Hour—the candlelight is basically your soundtrack.
Pro Tip: Whisper compliments to people you pass—balance = bliss.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpio, intensity is your middle name. Strategize in Casa Di Vite Chess Club, then unleash fury at Rage Cave, and achieve zen by candlelight at Happy Hour. Later, satisfy your sleuth side with Sandi’s Astrology Readings—let prophecy meet power.
Pro Tip: Share your zodiac insight with Paula at Rage Cave. She’ll listen.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius, you’re off on adventure. Work up energy in Family Workout, run duels at Speed & Agility Camp, splash in swims, then roar through Live Music nights with flair. Dump emotional ashtrays at Rage and still lead drinking cheers at the wine pairing.
Pro Tip: Use the fish & chips truck for culinary moral support.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorn, efficiency is your elegance. Lead the Hospital Board, plan holiday-themed resumes at the Planning & Zoning, then secure the best seat at Game Night—we see you organizing the snack rotation. Conclude with stoic power at Auction and sips tuned to strategy on wine tours.
Pro Tip: Chart wine tannin levels in Excel mid-tasting. Dominate.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Aquarius, you are charming eccentricity embodied. Float through evangelist vibes at Bible School, sculpt candles with cosmic style, and debrief existentialism over karaoke at Open Mic. Your final act: write secret songs in Messy Mania, then surf dinner conversations at wine pairings.
Pro Tip: Wear rainbow glasses to Business Happy Hour—they call it vision.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces, intuition is your GPS. Floatily swim with kids, whisper poetry at the art show, then sail through Lyrics on the Lawn swaddled in emotion. Later, shine softly at the wine-tasting under lanterns. You’ve emotionally pre-booked your exhale by Sunday.
Pro Tip: Share your candle light with others during Happy Hour—just vibe.
