Aries (March 21 - April 19)
You’re full of energy this week, Aries, and that means it’s time to shine—literally, under the stage lights! Open Mic Night at The Atlas Saloon is calling your name. Whether you belt out a song, read a poem, or tell a joke that only you think is funny, the spotlight is yours. If that’s not your thing, use that firecracker energy to crush it at the ESHS Tennis Fundraiser at Sonic Drive-In—supporting a good cause while sipping on a cherry limeade? That’s a win-win.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Indulging in the finer things in life is your specialty, Taurus, and this week is serving up gourmet experiences on a silver platter. The Wine Cave Tour and Candlelit Tasting at Fence Stile’s Winery is practically tailor-made for you. If that’s not enough, Fish Fridays at the ES Golf Course is calling your name—because nothing says “end-of-week treat” like crispy, golden fish and good company. Enjoy, and don’t forget to save room for dessert!
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Your social butterfly wings are in full effect, Gemini, and there’s no shortage of places to flutter. Casa Di Vite Chess Club will keep your mind sharp, while Lucky in Luxe: “Ladies” Happy Hour at Skin Affaire Med Spa is the perfect excuse to sip, chat, and glow-up with your besties. And if you’re feeling especially lively, Group Line Dance at One Step at a Time Ballroom Dance is guaranteed to get your energy flowing. Just try not to talk so much that you miss the steps!
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Feeling a little nostalgic this week, Cancer? That’s the universe nudging you toward events that make you feel connected and cozy. Storytime for Families is a heartwarming way to share quality moments with little loved ones, while the Grief Share group can provide a space for healing and support if you’re carrying something heavy. And if you’re looking to treat yourself, BYOC Crafting Day at Knit Ewe Together is the perfect spot to create something special with your own hands.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
You’re ready to be the star of the show this week, Leo, and lucky for you, there are plenty of stages (literal and metaphorical) to take over. The Hall of Writers Writing Group is the perfect place to share your ideas, or, if you’re more about show than tell, grab a mic at Open Mic Night at The Atlas Saloon. If you really want to turn heads, show off your moves at the St. Patty’s Day Party at One Step at a Time Ballroom Dance—green never looked so good on you!
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
This week, Virgo, it’s all about getting organized and making things beautiful. The Community Decorating Class: Spring Theme at ES Area Career Center is your chance to put that eye for detail to good use. If you need a break from all that productivity, let loose at Mambo Class at One Step at a Time Ballroom Dance—because even the most disciplined signs deserve a little fun. And don’t forget to check out the Neighborhood Engagement Team meeting—your input could make a real difference in the community.
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Your inner peacemaker is thriving this week, Libra, and you’re drawn to harmony in all its forms—whether it’s the graceful movements of Rumba Workshop at One Step at a Time Ballroom Dance, the intellectual balance of a Book Study at Selah, or the literal harmony of Band X Band KC at Eagles Lodge. Whatever you do, let beauty and rhythm guide your week. Bonus: The St. Patty’s Day Celebration at Shamrock Hills Vineyard and Winery will have you sipping and socializing in style.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpio, you’ve got a bit of a mysterious, strategic vibe this week, and that makes Casa Di Vite Chess Club the perfect battleground for your mind games. If you’d rather channel your intensity into movement, the Pop-Up Mixed Martial Arts Class is sure to keep you on your toes (literally). And if you’re looking for a quiet, reflective space, consider the Morning Meditation with Ryan at Infinitea Magik—because even a Scorpio needs to recharge.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Adventure is calling, Sagittarius, and this week, you don’t have to go far to find it! Take a deep dive into leadership and growth at the Leadership Summit at Lake Maurer Retreat Center, then follow it up with some spontaneous fun at On the Hook Fish and Chips Food Truck—because every great explorer needs fuel! Feeling extra bold? Swing Class at One Step at a Time Ballroom Dance is the perfect excuse to step out of your comfort zone (and onto the dance floor).
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
You’re all about business this week, Capricorn, but even you know how to mix in a little pleasure. The Community Center Board Meeting and Historic Preservation Commission Meeting are right up your alley—because who better to get things done than you? But after all that serious talk, treat yourself to a midweek reset at Wine Down on Wednesdays at Three Owls (Elms)—you deserve it. And if you’re feeling ambitious, St. Patty’s Day Party at One Step at a Time Ballroom Dance could be your chance to let loose (just a little).
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Innovation and creativity are your strong suits, Aquarius, so this week, lean into activities that let you explore new ideas. The March Elkhorn SOS Meeting and ES Redevelopment Corporation Meeting will give you a platform to brainstorm big changes. If you’re looking for a hands-on creative outlet, BYOC Crafting Day at Knit Ewe Together is your perfect artistic escape. And don’t forget to make time for some fun—Fence Stile’s Wine Cave Tour and Candlelit Tasting is bound to be an adventure.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces, your dreamy and artistic nature is thriving this week. The Silver Prom Shopping Event at Good Samaritan Center is the perfect way to get lost in nostalgia while doing something kind. If you’re in a creative mood, Hall of Writers Writing Group will help you channel your emotions into words. And don’t forget to celebrate—St. Patty’s Day Celebration at Shamrock Hills Vineyard and Winery is the perfect spot to sip, dance, and daydream to your heart’s content.
