While the beginning of a new school year is usually synonymous with the unknown and doubts about what’s to come, the stars may already have a glimpse of what this semester will look like for you. 

Aries (Mar. 21 – Apr. 19): Get ready to enter your fashion era. Like leaves changing colour at the beginning of Fall, this season is going to hold a shift in style with new outfits to surprise your fellow classmates. Thrift shops are your ally this semester. 

Taurus (Apr. 20 – May 20): Be careful where you walk, Taurus! You tend to be a little distracted, already missing summer and constantly searching for the sun in the sky. But with the amount of construction happening on campus, you should watch your step to avoid a dramatic fall.

Gemini (May 21 – June 21): Success is on its way! Your new nickname is “academic weapon”. Straight A’s are coming for you this semester, and you’ll deserve them. Office hours hold no secret for you, and you’ll have absolutely no trouble locking in.

Cancer (June 22 – Jul. 22): New motto unlocked: “A healthy mind lives in a clean space.” Cleanliness will be your strong suit this semester. Your personal space will always look brand new and feel cozy. This will take a huge burden off your shoulders and allow you to be fully invested in your activities, much to the relief of your parents. 

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22): Remember, patience is key. Things might not always go your way this semester, but it is only a matter of perspective. If you survived the line for OAP, you can overcome frustration without a doubt. You’ll do great in every aspect of your life as long as you are willing to take a step back and not rush into things. 

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22): Luck is on your side! All your classes are recorded, your exam dates fit your hopes to a T, your profs are nice and engaging, you don’t have a class up the hill, and life is good. Enjoy this break—it won’t last forever!

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 23): While school is not necessarily your priority this semester, your social battery will never run dry. You’re about to become an expert in BdA, 4à7, and Blues. Be prepared to have a buzzing social life. 

Scorpio (Oct. 24 – Nov. 21): Just like the delicious smell of grilled cheese in the Leacock basement on a Thursday night, love floats around you. You’ll be the remaining rays of sunshine when the fall clouds kick in, and everybody’s going to want to feel your warmth. 

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21): You and the libraries are going to be the most iconic duo this Fall. Birks is your new home, and it will make your study sesh look like a Pinterest board 24/7. However, you may sometimes forget that you need to actually do work there, so keep your eyes on the prize.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19): With a Tim Hortons cup in your right hand and a reusable water bottle in your left, balance is the key word for Capricorn. You’ll have absolutely no trouble going from a hectic party at Gert’s to a study session in Schulich at all. This semester is going to check all the boxes!

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18): Hibernation might start a little early this year. The stars are expecting power naps regularly and full 10-hour nights of sleep. All-nighters and excessive consumption of caffeine are not on your agenda. Both your physical and mental health will thank you in advance.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – Mar. 20): Pisces rhymes with coffees—and yes, that’s plural. Montréal overflows with cute and trendy coffee shops that you’ve never tried, despite your friends’ constant recommendations. This never-ending cycle is finally over. Fall 2024 will be the coffee season you’ve been dreaming of.
