Here’s your complete 2018 horoscope

New year, new you, new love

2018 opens with a Mars/Jupiter conjunction in Scorpio, so it'll be the most energetic year we've had in a long time. And with energy comes the stamina to deal with all the romantic and emotional bullshit that'll come along with it.

This will also be a year of progress and going after things we're afraid of, which includes everyone from that hot guy at your gym to the King of Your Heart™ as our favorite Sag Taylor Swift would say.

Here's everything the stars have in store for you in 2018, featuring illustrations by Lucy Turnbull for babe:

ARIES

By the end of December 2018, you'll have locked in your most serious relationship to date! You might have to be the one to initiate it, but it's not as stressful as it all sounds.

That could mean anything from finally deleting your Tinder and just going up to someone at a concert to taking out your headphones while walking around from now on so that people will feel more comfortable coming up to you to chat.

It'll all be worth it because for once the stars are on your side in romance.

TAURUS

This year will have ups and downs at the beginning but by summer, you'll be experiencing one of your highest romantic peaks yet.

Instead of stressing about it in the coming winter months, use this time to focus on yourself and your work so that when the time for love comes, you're available in every way.

Anything you do to pressure a romantic agenda before then will only end up throwing things out of balance.

Great things take time!

GEMINI

With a new you in the new year, you're suddenly going to become extremely desirable to those you've previously shown interest in.

There's nothing more intriguing than someone so busy with themselves they're no longer interested in games — and this time around, that's you!

Take up a new hobby, get into some new music, try out a new style, and people will start coming to you instead of the other way around.

People want what they think they "can't have," but they really want the one who doesn't give a shit.

CANCER

If 2017 was the year you began coming out of that crusty little shell of yours, 2018 is going to be a year of complete transformation for you in love and also in life.

With all of the changes you've been making lately come new opportunities and new people to go along with them. And though you've never been one for change, you're learning to adapt.

Don't let a few tough conversations or failed attempts send you back into hiding, though, because people are finally starting to take note. Grab this year by the reins and I promise someone else will feel inclined to grab you along the way (if they can keep up).

LEO

You're going to have a few too many choices to know what to do with in 2018, but by fall, one will win out.

You've been so focused on being independent lately that it might feel a bit suffocating with all of the new attention — but you'll adapt the way you always seem to.

For once, you're allowed to take a breather and share some of your responsibilities with someone else. You don't always need to do everything yourself, and sometimes it feels really good not to.

VIRGO

You've spent this past year boiling things down so that you really know what you're looking for in love, and your manic tendencies are finally going to pay off.

There's no way to know what, or who, will work for you until you've gotten a taste of every single thing that didn't. And booooy have you had a taste of that.

Now comes the fun bit where you get to use all that seemingly useless trauma and drama to lock down the one who counts. It could be someone you know or it may be someone new, but there's a change in the air and it's all upward movements.

Don't we all wish we were you?

LIBRA

If you've felt like you've been a bit clingy this year, it's because you have been…but for good reason.

You've felt change coming lately, and don't want to lose the person who's most important to you. And, because of your efforts, you won't.

Sometimes, even though they may not show it, people just want to know that you're going to be there for them and a specific someone has been doing a lot of thinking about both you and that lately.

Now, all you have left to do is wait for them to come around to it themselves, which I promise they will.

SCORPIO

2018 is going to feel like the fresh start you've been waiting for every year.

For once, resolutions will be kept, toxic people will be cut off, and the ones who are worth it will take note. Just be careful not to leave anyone you really love in the dust.

It'll be exciting feeling like you're getting a clean break from it all, but a clean break can also mean second chances and it might be worth giving a certain ~someone~ another shot.

You know who I'm talking about.

SAGITTARIUS

Level with me here, but this year you're going to have to make some decisions about yourself you've been trying to put off!!

Think of it as a fresh start and understand that until you face certain issues, you won't have enough room in your life for anything or anyone else.

This doesn't need to be time consuming at all, though. It can be done in a month, but it's going to have to happen. Once it does, you'll feel absolutely certain about every single thing that's been left in the fog this past year.

Your honesty will be both refreshing and attractive to others — especially those you care about most.

CAPRICORN

Lucky time to be a Capricorn! It's going to be one of the best years you've had in a very long time.

There's going to be a glow -p, you're going to feel super chatty, and people who dismissed you in the past will be grasping at the chance to get back with you. Too bad they already did themselves in.

Take in every second of the coming months, and don't worry about those who are too slow to keep up with you. If they weren't down to ride before, they don't deserve you now.

(Unless you're really in love with them, then I guess give them another shot or whatever. We're not judging.)

AQUARIUS

It may not be your ~wildest~ year ever, but it's going to be your most stable! And that's better than anything you could ask for.

If 2016 was the year of realizing things (and 2017 didn't count), then 2018 is the year of all those things finally making sense.

You'll have a schedule like a real adult (which you'll actually stick to), and for once you'll be able to hold a real relationship down.

Damn, maybe you'll even start buying floss or something.

PISCES

This year, you're going to have to make a decision about whether or not you want to take a past love back.

Just when you thought they'd disappeared for good, they'll sense that you're having one of your best years ever and come flying back like the little demon they are.

Of course you still have a soft spot for them, but weigh the pros and cons before letting them back in. It could all end well for you two, but is that a wound you're really willing to open again? It just healed.

Reflect, digest and see you all in the new year.
