Summer is almost at an end, which means the days of making La Croix planters and cactus donuts are phasing out as well. We may be entering back-to-school season, but there’s no reason to fret! We have some classes that you won’t dread taking. Because life doesn’t have to be all work and no play.
Jennifer Lawrence announced she's pregnant, and we couldn't be happier for her! Though she and her husband, Cooke Maroney, aren't known for being in the public eye too much, it seems like this is one piece of news they don't mind sharing! Sorry, but we haven't been this excited about baby news since Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattinson became parents — excuse us while we celebrate!
Here's everything we know about baby number 2 so far.
November 17: Jennifer Lawrence Glows On The Red Carpet Again

Not only is Jennifer Lawrence glowing during her second pregnancy, but she's also showing how stylish moms can be! According to WWD, she wore a gorgeous brown Bottega Veneta gown to the Governors Award event and looked like a goddess on the red carpet. The dress and its gold hardware complemented her skin beautifully along with her matching clutch!
It seems like maternity style gets better every year and it gives this mama hope that the world sees that life doesn't stop just because we have kiddos in tow!
Has Jennifer Lawrence debuted her baby bump yet?

YES! Jennifer Lawrence's baby bump was the star of the Zurawski v Texas premiere (via PEOPLE). She wore a structured white dress with a black belt around her waist that accentuated her cute baby bump and appeared to be glowing.
According to Deadline, she's one of the executive producers of Zurawski v Texas, a documentary that sheds light on the "restrictive abortion laws" that put women's lives in danger in Texas. Alongside producers Hilary and Chelsea Clinton, Jennifer's involvement in the documentary as a pregnant woman makes a pivotal statement during a time where mothers' mortalities aren't always considered during their pregnancies.
When did Jennifer Lawrence announce her second pregnancy?

Leave it to Vogue to get the exclusive scoop about Jennifer being pregnant again! According to the publication, an official "representative for the actor confirmed" the news yesterday, October 20. So exciting!
When is Jennifer Lawrence's second baby due?
Kevin Mazur
Jennifer Lawrence hasn't announced her due date yet, so we can't be quite sure! However, if she's out of her first trimester, Jennifer could have her baby around April 2025!
What have Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney said about their family?

It seems Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney were open to the idea of having another baby as recently as this summer! An unknown source told Entertainment Tonight, "Jennifer and Cooke are doing very well and are super in love. They make each other laugh and have the best time parenting together. They would love to have another kid and expand their family."
When was Jennifer Lawrence's first baby born?

Jennifer and Cooke's firstborn son, Cy, was born February 2022, which means he's almost three years old!
The actress later explored her feeling about becoming a mom in another Vogueinterview. "It’s so scary to talk about motherhood. Only because it’s so different for everybody. If I say, It was amazing from the start, some people will think, 'It wasn’t amazing for me at first,' and feel bad. Fortunately I have so many girlfriends who were honest. Who were like, It’s scary," she said.
What has Jennifer Lawrence said about being a mom?

It seems like Jennifer found her stride because she's apparently embraced being a mom. She hasn't said anything recently, but she did speak with Entertainment Tonight last year during the promotion of No Hard Feelings about her parenting habits. "Of course, the urge to stop anything from ever hurting or negatively affecting your baby..." she said.
However, co-star Andrew Barth Feldman had nothing but positive words to share about Jennifer as a mom. "Jen is an amazing mother, for real. That was kind of one of the incredible things about doing this with you is seeing just how much of a priority being a mother is for you and how deeply you care about that over everything," he said.
We can't wait to see how Jennifer's second pregnancy develops and hope she's willing to give us a little sneak peek of how she's prepping to have two young kids!

Is anybody in Hollywood busier than Nicole Kidman? The queen of AMC has been feeding us non-stop since Big Little Lies season 2 ended in 2019. The Perfect Couple, A Family Affair, Nine Perfect Strangers, Babygirl— she never stops! Nicole's latest role in Amazon Prime Video's Scarpetta sets her opposite Jamie Lee Curtis for a mystery thriller adventure that might just rival Jamie's Knives Out.
The story, about a medical examiner who returns to her hometown, and a rocky relationship with her sister, feels like Sullivan's Crossing meets Big Little Lies, and I am so locked in. Even if you've never read the books before, this is going to be one show you won't be able to stop watching.
Keep reading for everything you need to know about the new Kay Scarpetta TV show on Prime Video.
Is there a TV series based on Kay Scarpetta?
Amazon
Scarpetta Plot
Yes a TV show based on the Kay Scarpetta books is coming to Amazon! The crime series — which has been greenlit for two seasons — will follow Chief Medical Examiner Kay, played by Nicole Kidman (and reportedly inspired by CME Marcella Farinelli Fierro), who reenters her former position in her Virginia hometown. Not only is she navigating the ins and outs of her work life, but she's also balancing relationships with her sister Dorothy, her coworkers, and all the secrets that come with them.
And apparently, the scripts in and of themselves stopped Nicole in her tracks! She tells Vanity Fair the project is "terrifying" because "it’s so well-written. It’s crazy how I’m frightened reading it. I haven’t done that. I can’t think of a film I’ve done where it was so terrifying. Like what? The Others wasn’t terrifying."
Where can I watch the show?
Scarpetta Release Date
Scarpetta will stream on Prime Video in the near future. We don't have an official release date yet, so stay tuned!
Is Jamie Lee Curtis going to play Kay Scarpetta?

Scarpetta Cast
Jamie Lee Curtis will play Kay Scarpetta's sister Dorothy, while Nicole Kidman will play the role of Kay. The fact that the show is tentatively called Scarpetta makes me think the series will focus just as much on Dorothy — and their relationship — as it does on Kay. Ariana DeBose, Bobby Cannavale, Simon Baker, Rosy McEwen, Jake Cannavale, and Bobby Cannavale have also been cast.
Nicole is super excited to work with Jamie, and told Vanity Fair that the experience has been "glorious" so far. "I was like, 'I’ll do it with you, but you have to play my sister. You have to go with me.' And she’s like, 'Okay.' So, we’re producing it together and we’re in it together—and that is glorious. That’s what I mean, where you go, 'Okay. Who’s got the same amount of passion and enthusiasm?' Look at her. I mean, she’s unbelievable. She is a force."
What order do the Kay Scarpetta books go in?

Donna Kelce Just Spilled On Taylor Swift's Thanksgiving Plans & TBH, We're Not Surprised
Nov 15, 2024
The most notable news from our resident popstar BFF Taylor Swift (aside from her record-breaking Eras Tour movie, The Tortured Poets Department, and Reputation (Taylor's Version), of course) is her most recent boyfriend update. Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift were first linked after Travis tried to give the singer his phone number during one of her concerts last year. And after a few NFL games, getaway car rides, and restaurant takeovers later, it looks like this relationship isn't going anywhere anytime soon.
Here's a timeline on everything we know about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship!
A Timeline Of Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce's Relationship

September, 24 2023 - Taylor Swift Started Attending Kansas City Chiefs Games
Taylor Swift started attending Kansas City Chiefs games in 2023, seemingly after an indirect invite from Travis Kelce himself. When Taylor played her Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium (the Chiefs' home stadium), Travis tried to give her a friendship with his number on it.
“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” Travis told his brother after Jason during an episode of their New Heights podcast. “I was a little butt hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”
Considering Taylor Swift has now gone to many Chiefs games — and nearly broken the internet — we're pretty sure he's not upset anymore!
On September 24, 2023, Taylor Swift watched the NFL game with Travis' mom, Donna. After the football game — in which Taylor sat with Donna, and created (another) pop culture phenomenon with a single photo — not only did Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce leave the Arrowhead Stadium locker room together, but they also drove away in Travis' convertible as a pair!

October 1, 2023 - Taylor Brought Some Friends To Watch The Chiefs
On October 1, 2023, Taylor was joined by all-star BFFs Sabrina Carpenter, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner, and Hugh Jackman to watch the Chiefs play against the New York Jets. While Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift didn't leave the stadium together after THIS game was over, the fact that Taylor was surrounded by so many of her friends felt like they were there to support something quite special. 💓
We'd be remiss not to mention a few easter eggs from this game while we're at it! This romance feels so much like a callback to Taylor's 1989 era, where she spent a lot of 2013 to 2015 hanging with her friends in the coolest NYC spots. Plus, she's wearing all black (and some edgy accessories on her shorts) while we all speculate on what she's up to and who she's dating, which is not too dissimilar from her Reputation era. 👀

October 12, 2023 - Taylor Swift Makes A Good First Impression
We know Taylor always tries to make a good impression (hello "Mirrorball!"), but it turns out, she also makes a good impression without even trying.
The first time Taylor met Travis Kelce's dad, Ed, he noticed how genuine she was when she started helping around the suite. “She gets up to go get a drink or something, and she starts picking up empty bottles, cans, plates that are scattered around," he toldPeople. “And I'm just thinking, 'I don't think she got the diva memo. She didn't get the spoiled musician. She doesn't know how to pull that off.' And that really to me said a whole lot.”

October 14, 2023 - Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Were On SNL
Yes, Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce were both on the October 14 episode of Saturday Night Live in 2023. The couple attended the SNL afterparty together and fans were very quick to spot how much the football player took care of the singer. He opened doors for her, made sure she was okay, and reportedly even told a bodyguard that he could step aside. When I first saw the images, they looked so much like a rom-com cover to me that I thought they were photoshopped!
Then on the following Sunday night, Travis and Taylor were seen in New York City again as they made their way into a restaurant (once again holding hands!). It might be important for Swifties to note that both of Taylor's outfits are black, edgy, and very Reputation-coded... I can't wait to see what she has up her sleeve!

October 19, 2023 - Travis Apparently Plans To Visit Taylor On Her International Tour
At this point, ET had reported that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were "all in" on their relationship, according to an inside source. They told the outlet that Travis intended to head to Buenos Aires, Argentina while he was on a bye-week for the Kansas City Chiefs. We hope he was able to give her those friendship bracelets this time! 😘

October 22, 2023 - Taylor Swift Is Improving Travis Kelce's Game
After a 31-17 win on October 22, 2023, Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid acknowledged Taylor's influence on Travis' game during a press conference. He noted that Travis' performance is only improving and that “Taylor can stay around all she wants.”

The October 22 game also appeared to be the couple's official hard launch. Chiefs wide reciever Mecole Hardman Jr.'s girlfriend Chariah Gordon posted a series of photos with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce after the game — including this one where Taylor's kissing Travis on the cheek! Swoon!

October 31, 2023 - Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Celebrate Halloween Together
On an episode of Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast, Travis said he loves the idea of a dinner party on Halloween night. "Like a Halloween dinner party. Everybody comes in costumes and we have a party," he says in the conversation.
But he also refuses to admit what costume he picked. "I'm gonna let mine be a surprise," he says. "I'll make sure everybody sees it, and we'll talk about it after Halloween."

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship only continues to get deeper in October 2023, especially since a source told ET Online that Taylor could be the one for Travis: "Everyone close to Travis loves that he is happy. He is on the path to finding that special person in Taylor."
However, given the frenzy around Taylor, and the media coverage of their relationship in general, Travis' family is also fairly concerned for their safety. (And after hundreds of fans showed up uninvited to see Taylor attend a private wedding, we kind of are too, TBH).
"They're so appreciative of their fans, but hope to keep some aspects of their relationship private going forward," the source continued. "This level of stardom is something new to Travis, and although he can handle it, he is still getting used to it. Safety is a major concern among everyone, especially given how passionate fans feel about their relationship."

November 5, 2023 - Taylor Swift (Virtually) Celebrates Travis Kelce's New Record
After the Kansas City Chiefs game on November 5, 2023, People posted on Instagram celebrating Travis Kelce's new title as the KC Chiefs' leading receiver with 10,941 receiving yards. Taylor Swift liked the post, and considering she's very strategic and intentional about her Instagram activity, Swifites were very excited.
"Me giggling cuz TS liked this post," one user commented. "It’s an interesting time for Taylor & Kelce" another said. "They are both at supremely high career success points. What joy!"
On November 9, 2023, a source told US Weeklythat Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce “actually spend a lot of one-on-one time together and have developed a very real connection," plus the fact that "they have very detailed plans coming up on how to stay together while she’s on tour and he has games.”

November 11, 2023 - Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Have A Rom-Com Moment
On November 11, 2023, Taylor changed the lyrics of her song "Karma" from "Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me" to "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me" (a move that seemed somewhat spontaneous considering how surprised her backup dancers were!).
Travis revealed on the November 15 episode of the New Heights podcast that he had a "little bit of a clue" she'd change the lyrics. 👀
"Definitely when I heard it come out of her mouth, [it] still shocked me," he said. "I was like...'Oh, she really just said that, alright.'" He was so shocked in fact, that he didn't even realize Taylor's dad was trying to high five him. "Mr. Swift, I apologize big guy," he continued. "I never miss a high five too, big high five guy!"
And, after the show, Taylor went straight up to Travis standing outside a VIP tent and the coupleshared a kiss. It felt like it was straight out of a rom-com — a pop star running up to a star football player and surprising him with a kiss! The crowd at the concert went wild, but the internet also couldn't stop talking about it!
"This is sooooo adorable," one X user said. "Her little run. His hands behind his back like he’s waiting for his prom date or something. Ughhh they’re both in deep."

November 20, 2023 - Travis Kelce Spills On His Relationship In WSJ Magazine
Travis Kelce once again broke the internet with his WSJ Magazine cover story. In it, he talks about football, his family, and (of course) Taylor Swift. “I’ve never been a man of words. Being around her, seeing how smart Taylor is, has been f—king mind-blowing," he says. “Obviously I’ve never dated anyone with that kind of aura about them…But at the same time, I’m not running away from any of it…She’s just living, enjoying life. When she acts like that I better not be the one acting all strange.”
Even Kelce's mom had something to add! “I can tell you this,” she says in the interview. “He’s happier than I’ve seen him in a long time… God bless him, he shot for the stars!”
Fans were also hoping to find out if Taylor and Travis were spending Thanksgiving together. Via Page Six, Taylor was set to fly back from her Eras Tour shows in Rio de Janeiro to spend the holidays in the states before heading back for another show on November 24. TMZreported that the couple "plans to be together for the holidays," which included lining their schedules up to spend as much time together as they can.
Taylor celebrated another one of Travis' milestones on Instagram, when she liked a post from the Kansas City Chiefs. "Fastest tight end to 11k receiving yards AND the only player in franchise history to do it," the post says. According to a Daily Mail source, as soon as Taylor Swift's Eras Tour wrapped up its 2023 dates, she moved into Travis' private Kansas City mansion (which he reportedly bought for them to spend time together) for the duration of her break — which included her birthday and Christmas.

December 3, 2023 - Taylor Shows Up To The Chiefs Game Looking Festive
Taylor Swift hung out in the box seats with Brittany Mahomes in Green Bay, Wisconsin during the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Green Bay Packers.
Not only is Taylor Swift's jacket KC Chiefs red, but it was also totally Christmas appropriate! "Travis' friends think this is the real deal for him,” an insider told Peopleat the end of November 2023. “They're still a little shocked by all of it — that he's dating the Taylor Swift, but they've seen how down to earth she is with his friends and family.”
But before Taylor donned her Elmo-approved red coat, the couple was already in the Christmas spirit. They showed up to Miracle, a pop-up bar in Kansas City, on December 1, for the Chiefs' holiday party. It appears they were wearing some festive sweatshirts (as well as Taylor's signature red lip). I hope they also got to have some more chicken with "seemingly ranch".

December 6, 2023 - Taylor Talks Travis In Her TIME Person Of The Year Article
There's been pleeeeenty of speculation about when Taylor and Travis actually started dating. Was it that first Chiefs game? Were they just friends still? Was it before that game? While only the lovebirds know their true timeline, Taylor gave us a peek behind the curtain in her TIME MagazinePerson of the Year article.
According to Tay herself, the pair started hanging out immediately after Travis first mentioned her on his New Heightspodcast. She said, “We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other. By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.”
Swift continued by explaining that she and Travis "show up for each other" and that they're "just proud of each other." BRB, sobbing.
On December 8, 2023, an insider told Life & Style Mag that Travis is planning something special for Taylor's 34th birthday on December 13. “Travis has something special planned,” they say. “He’s arranged a very intimate romantic dinner just for the two of them, and is also trying to pull off a semi-surprise party with the help of some of her closest friends."
The insider also says Travis could use the evening to propose to Taylor, which we would TOTALLY be in favor of.

December 10, 2023 - Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Share Some Swoon-Worthy PDA
After the KC Chiefs and Buffalo Bills game on December 10, 2023, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce went out with the team to celebrate. They wound up back at the Miracle pop-up bar! The evening was sure to lift Travis' spirits after the Chiefs' loss, and I, for one, need to make Taylor's Christmapolitan drink ASAP.
Thanks to the Chiefs' barber, @patty_cuts, we also have a pic of Taylor and Travis embracing each other at the bar! If you ask me, this deserves to be a movie poster, because I feel like we're living in a real-life rom-com. And apparently, one of their friends agrees!
"We had an amazing time," Chetarah Jackson (a friend of Travis' who sat with Taylor in the suite at the game) told ET. "Taylor and Travis are so in love. It was so cute seeing them together and I can see them getting married."

December 17, 2023 - Taylor Swift Gets Cozy At The Chiefs x Patriots Game
Taylor Swift showed up to the KC Chiefs vs. New England Patriots game looking both comfy and cute in a Chiefs sweatshirt and beanie. In addition to Alana Haim and Brittany Mahomes, Taylor's dad, Scott Swift, also showed up to the game, which ended up being a big deal because he wore KC Chiefs gear after he's been a lifelong Philadelphia Eagles fan! 👀
Scott wasn't the only one having fun with the couple! Kaleigh Teller (Miles Teller's wife and a good friend of Taylor Swift) recently liked a TikTok speculating Travis got Taylor a very special birthday present: the ring Taylor wore during her party. It appears to be an opal stone surrounded by blue topaz, and if that's true, it has so much meaning because Travis' birthstone is opal and Taylor's is blue topaz! Thoughtful gifts are our absolute favorites... and it looks like they're Travis' too.
Travis also told People that even though he had a game on Christmas Day (his brother Jason does, too), the holiday "will be a fun one."
"My brother sent me a text and said he’s going to be celebrating afterwards," Travis continued. He also confirmed that he's planning on celebrating Christmas after the 25th too — hopefully with Taylor!
According to Page Six, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce also spent the rest of the holidays together.

December 22, 2023 - Patrick Mahomes Talks Taylor And Travis 👀
Patrick Mahomes hopped on CBS Morningsin December and gave his inside scoop on Taylor and Travis. While noting how comfortable Taylor is with "Chiefs Kingdom," Patrick also took a moment to recognize her many achievements.
"He's lucky enough to be with a great girl and a great woman, and it's been cool to interact with her because she's top tier of her profession — and how she drives and she becomes that, it's really cool to hear about and to see." He followed up by saying, "I'm glad that she's the person that she is, and that's why I think her and Travis match so well."
Clearly, Tay got the BFF stamp of approval!

December 25, 2023 - Taylor Swift + Family Attend Chiefs vs. Raiders
Taylor and Santa... I mean... Austin Swift hung out at Arrowhead stadium alongside their mom and dad, Andrea and Scott. The family had some holiday fun with the Mahomes family and Papa Kelce, with Austin allegedly tossing snowballs to the fans below. Merry Swiftmas to us all!

December 31, 2023 - Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Share An NYE Kiss
After a Chiefs win, Taylor and Travis stepped out in style at a NYE party with their friends and family. Travis wore a Midnights-esque outfit, in head-to-toe brown courduroy — come on, '70s!
Of course, Taylor made the whole place shimmer in a stunning silver sequin dress by Cleo Peppiatt, paired with celestial hair pins and her signature red lip, which was allegedly smudged later on in the night. 😘
We got a peek at the kiss in question on Instagram, originally posted by @krystenrachelle. It's definitely giving, "I want your midnights!" 😍

January 21, 2024 - Taylor Swift Hangs Out With Jason And Kylie Kelce
After months of attending Travis Kelce's games, Taylor Swift was finally in the box at the same time as Jason Kelce's wife, Kylie, and this is a WAG friendship we are TOTALLY here for.
Despite the media pitting them against each other, the two women were seen laughing and spending time together in the box, which really just leads me to wonder why we're constantly obsessed with women not being friends? "Kylie is so great," a source told People. "Everybody loves her."
The most talked-about moment from the game, however, can be chalked up to Jason Kelce, who jumped out of the box shirtless and started yelling at the top of his lungs. He's since been called the KC Chiefs' “No. 1 hype man,”been compared to Gabriela Montez, and gotten people's hopes up for a very lively best man speech.
Someone also captured Taylor Swift's reaction to Jason's viral moment, and it's just as funny as the moment itself!
Taylor wasn't the only one who knows how to be goofy — Travis Kelce's teammate Patrick Mahomes told People that despite the newfound media frenzy over Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce (and achieving his "dream" of being on SNL), Travis remains just as fun and down-to-earth as he always was.
“Travis has always been Travis,” Patrick told People. “He still will walk through the stadium and treat every single person like they’re his best friend. And he’s going to be like that in the locker room every single day.”

January 28 - Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Celebrate A Chiefs Win... And Break The Internet
After the Kansas City Chiefs won a game against the Baltimore Ravens on January 28, the team was headed to the Super Bowl! Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce celebrated with a kiss on the field, and fans have been comparing their total rom-com moment to everyone from One Tree Hill's Lucas and Peyton toA Cinderella Story's Austin and Samever since.
But the biggest moment of the night was when, during their embrace, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce could be heard saying "I love you." According a post-game video, Travis says, “Tay, I'm going to enjoy with the guys I love you... so much it’s not even funny.” And it appears Taylor responds with “I love you too... I’ve never been so proud, EVER.” Then they go in for a kiss and a bear hug. OMG!
Jason Kelce later went on to add Taylor in with the rest of the family on the New Heights podcast: “We had the whole family down on the field. We had me, Mom, Dad, and Taylor. Everybody was down there.” Stop it right now, Jason!
In addition to a mockneck red sweater, Taylor was decked out in a gold friendship bracelet of her + Travis' initials, as well as #87-themed jewelry to support her BF. I also find it VERY important info that Taylor Swift is a square nail gal (Will this inspire my next manicure? Only time will tell).
I predicted that Taylor would show up the the Super Bowl, despite wrapping up the Tokyo leg of the Eras Tour the day before. I thought this would be a huge moment because, despite being asked to perform multiple times, Taylor has never actually performed at the Super Bowl, so she's never really had a reason to go.
Another popular fan theory is that in the past, this was due to Taylor Swift being a face of Diet Coke (she really is just like us!), while the halftime show has historically had Pepsi as a sponsor.

February 5, 2024 - Travis Kelce Supports Taylor Swift's The Tortured Poet's Department
After Taylor Swift announced her new album, The Tortured Poets Department, at the 2024 Grammys, Travis Kelce showed support for the new album during a press conference — and he's just as excited about the new music as we are!
"She's unbelievable, she's rewriting history books herself," he said of her fourth Album of the Year win. "I told her I'll have to hold up my end of the bargain and come home with some hardware too...It's been fun to kind of gather the Swifties in the Chiefs' kingdom and open them up to the football world and the sports world."
"I have heard some of [Taylor Swift's new album], yes, and it is unbelievable," he continued. "I can't wait for her to shake up the world when it finally drops."
Travis ALSO responded to the rumors that he's looking to propose to Taylor Swift after a reporter straight up asked whether there'd be more than just a Super Bowl ring if the Chiefs won the Big Game.
"I’m focused on getting this ring, and that’s all that my mind’s focused on right now," Travis said.

February 11, 2024 - Taylor Swift Attends The Super Bowl And Catches A Nail-Biting Chiefs Win
Taylor Swift was there to witness the Kansas City Chiefs spar off against the San Fransisco 49ers at Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas and ultimately see Travis' team win the game in overtime 25-22.
Taylor was spotted in box seats alongside her girl gang, Blake Lively, Ice Spice, and Ashley Avignone. Lana Del Rey joined the squad later in the game, too!
Taylor quickly tossed back a few drinks as the excitement ramped up (iconic if you ask me) in the first half of the game. After the big victory, she swiftly ran to the field to celebrate with Travis.
Photo by Ezra Shaw/Getty Images
“Come here, girl," he said to her. They instantly embraced and shared a long kiss in celebration of the Chiefs win. But that wasn't all!
Taylor tagged along with Travis and his teammates to the official Super Bowl after-party at Zouk Nightclub in Las Vegas. The couple danced and sang, and the club even played a few of Taylor's hits! The couplekissed during "Love Story"and even pointed at each other across the dance floorwhile a remix "You Belong With Me" blasted. Travis Kelce switched up the lyrics, singing "Are you in love with me?" instead of "You belong with me" — to which Taylor raised her glass, smiled, and danced the night away. 🎶 If you ask me, this viral moment is just the latest profession of love between the two.
“I love how he just came very quickly when your song was on,” model Marianne Fonseca tells Taylor Swift in a viral clip. “That was the most romantic thing ever.”
"We met in the middle, and I was like, 'What is my life right now?'" Taylor jokes.
The power duo left the function wearing matching glittery black outfits, holding hands the entire time. To say we're obsessed is a true understatement.
So, what's next for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce?
Taylor will continue to embark on the international leg of her Eras Tour in Australia starting February 16. Based on everything the couple's been through so far, we don't see them going anywhere.

February 21, 2024 - Did Travis Kelce go to Australia to see Taylor Swift? Yes!
Our fave couple continues to enjoy their time together. A source told People that they are "really happy" and "having a lot of fun, but they're still seeing where it goes." Travis Kelce also landed in Sydney on February 21 to support Taylor Swift (and our gal Sabrina Carpenter) during the Australian leg of the Eras Tour. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce spent an afternoon at the Sydney Zoo, but did they act out any scenes from Anyone But You? We can only hope.
Travis Kelce had plenty to say about Taylor Swift in an episode of his podcast New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce. “They helicoptered us! Well, not us, Taylor,” he says. “This is all because Taylor is the biggest and the best thing possible."
While Travis was almost entirely focused on Taylor during the conversation about Australia, he couldn't help but mention his favorite zoo animals. "The kangaroos were pretty sweet, got to see a red panda up close and personal," he continues. "It’s like a friendly raccoon...saw a tiger sitting up in a tree house, that sh—t was f—king sweet, ain’t gonna lie."

February 23, 2024 — Taylor Swift Celebrates Travis Kelce At The Eras Tour
During her first concert in Sydney, Australia, Taylor Swift added a few blink-and-you'll-miss-'em details to her show in honor of Travis Kelce. She ended up pointing directly to him during "Willow," when she sings "that's my man," and during "Long Live," when she sings "when they gave us our trophies" (in honor of his Super Bowl win!). She also changed the "Karma" lyrics to "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me." And when the concert was done? Taylor ran directly to him and gave him a big kiss. Rom-com energy!!
“When she started to come around, it was privately,” defensive backs coach Dave Merritt tells The Sports Shop With Reese & Kmac. “She was coming into the stadiums without people really knowing until the camera put a big spotlight on it.”
"[Taylor Swift] actually affected the team in a positive way," Dave continues. "Everybody was excited that Travis was happy. So when my player, my brother, is happy beside me, that helps me and that encourages me."
And after Travis started dating Taylor, Dave saw even more of a shift! "And so Travis came in there a different man...She won a Super Bowl in her first year in the NFL," he jokes. "How about that?"

March 13, 2024 — Travis Kelce Talks About The Eras Tour In Singapore
It looks like Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter are in their lover era because both Travis Kelce and Sabrina Carpenter's boyfriend Barry Keoghan showed up to the Eras Tour in Singapore!
"Fun times in Singapore," Travis says on the New Heights podcast he shares with Jason Kelce. "I got to check out the world's largest greenhouse. How about that? I'm a big plant guy. Loved seeing f—king enormous trees. It was cool as f—k, they had the world's biggest waterfall in a greenhouse, too...It was awesome man. Everything was blooming at the same time, it was so f—king unique and so nice."
But Travis ALSO got to go to two Eras Tour concerts ahead of Taylor Swift's latest hiatus (she's on a break until her first Paris concert on May 9th) — and enjoyed the shows just as much as the sights!
"I got to see two amazing shows of the Eras Tour," Travis continues. "The last of the leg that Taylor has until she's back at it here in a couple months. Yeah outside of that, got to eat some lovely Singapore food and just catch the views. Everything over there just seems so nice."

March 20, 2024 — Travis Kelce Can't Stop Watching Love Is Blind
After a crazy year of the Eras Tour and the Super Bowl, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are focusing on their time together! "They’re focused on rest and recuperation and relaxing at home and having low-key and chill time together,” a source tells Us Weekly. “They are enjoying movie nights in her home theater, catching up on films and shows they’ve missed.”
We're always wondering what our favorite stars are binge watching right now, and apparently, Travis Kelce watchlist includes Love Is Blind. "You gotta watch Love Is Blind," he tells his brother Jason Kelce on a recent episode of New Heights. "It is the worst trash ever — it's worse than Catching Kelce — but it is so f—king good." (Jason's not so convinced).
But considering Travis almost seems like he's loving the show against his will, it's making me wonder if he's watching it with Taylor Swift — or if Taylor's the one who got him to watch it in the first place. I could totally see Travis and Taylor curled up on the couch with a plate of chai cookies, a blanket, and Netflix. Cozy!

March 20, 2024 — Travis Kelce Says He "Can't Wait" To Have Kids
On that same episode of New Heights, Travis Kelce also let it slip he may be ready for kids sooner than later. When the Super Bowl winner was talking about NBA player Victor Wembanyama, Travis joked he was so talented he must have been engineered.
“You can’t tell me that dude wasn’t made in a f—king lab over there in France," Travis says. “Can’t wait til I f—kin’ make one.”
“Don’t do this," Jason jokes. "Do not give any of these other conspiracy theorists anything else to latch onto, please.” Oops, it might be too late Jason!

After their Bahamas vacation, Taylor and Travis grabbed a Sunday lunch in Malibu. They both looked super cute and springy with Taylor wearing a bright blue sweater, a tan skort, and loafers, while Travis wore an oatmeal-colored pullover, hat, and a friendship bracelet.

“We are both very career-driven," he tells Entertainment Tonight. "I think we both love what we do and any chance that I can show my support to her — knowing that she has shown me all the support in the world throughout the season — it’s just been an amazing experience getting to know Tay."
Travis hasn't confirmed which concerts he'll show up to, but he does say the London shows are "can't-miss" concerts. "I think she’s at Wembley [Stadium] eight times?" he says. "Which is mind-blowing that she can do that many shows in one stadium and fill that thing up."

April 15, 2024 — Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Attend Coachella
The first weekend of Coachella was full of incredible performances from Lana Del Rey and Sabrina Carpenter (plus a very cute moment from Justin and Hailey Bieber) but it also gave Taylor Swift the opportunity to enjoy a concert from the audience! The Tortured Poets Department singer showed up to support Jack Antonoff and Bleachers, and even hung out with the band afterwards.
Taylor and Travis also attended Ice Spice's set and the rapper (who's featured on Midnights) performed her remix of "Karma"! That means Taylor finally got the full Swiftie experience, dancing to her music in the audience, and I love that for her.

April 16, 2024 — Patrick Mahomes Says Taylor Swift Picked Up A Few Things From The NFL
In his TIME100 interview, Patrick Mahomes says Taylor Swift has learned a lot about football. “Even when she’s taking her downtime, she’s working on something," he says. "Shooting a music video or singing a song or writing a song. You can see it by how she talks. Even when she’s talking about football, when she’s learning it, you can see her business mind putting it together. It’s almost like she’s trying to become a coach. ‘Why can’t you try this, this, and this?’ She’s asking the right questions.”
“I’ve met a lot of famous people now in my life,” Patrick continues. “Taylor’s probably the most down-to-earth person that’s been on that stage for that long.”

April 19, 2024 — Taylor Swift Releases The Tortured Poets Department
We all knew Taylor Swift's new album would reference Joe Alwyn, and I'll admit I was surprised just how much of it referenced Matty Healy. But the most pleasant surprise (in addition to some tracks Rory Gilmore would love) is that at least two of the songs are clearly about Travis Kelce! "So High School" and "The Alchemy" both use football metaphors to emphasize how exciting and youthful her relationship with Travis makes her feel. I'm obsessed!!
And on their latest date, Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce are cozied up in an LA restaurant booth. I don't know about y'all, but nothing screams '00s rom-com like hanging out in your favorite restaurant after a football game or a concert (both of which are very on brand for this couple).

Travis and his teammate Patrick Mahomes are investors in the Alpine Formula One team, so showing up to the Prix only makes sense! Plus, it gives TayVis the opportunity to explore the beautiful European country on the coast, full of castles and gardens. It's giving Princess Diaries!!

“She had just been so open to learning the game, she didn’t know much about the rules or anything…I think she was just curious about the profession,” he continues. “I know none of the plays have gotten to Coach Reid yet, but if they ever do I’ll make sure everyone knows it was her creation."

"And something that I'll always remember is when I would finish a take and I'd say ‘cut,’ and we'd be done with that take, I would always just hear, like, someone cheering from across the studio where we were shooting it, and that one person was my boyfriend, Travis."
"Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic," she continues. "So, I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot because I’ll always remember that."

Taylor and Travis attended the Cleveland Guardians vs. New York Yankees championship game — and this image just makes me giggle because I've disassociated at every single baseball game I've attended, and it looks like Taylor's doing the same.
There's always an air of intrigue when it comes to our favorite celebrity relationships, but according to one DeuxMoi source, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have no secrets between them.

- 12/21 Sun enters Capricorn

What To Expect In Your December Horoscope For 2024
The month begins with a magical New Moon in Sagittarius on December 1, perfectly aligning with the heart of the Scorpion star Antares. This cosmic event is primed for manifestation, offering us the energy to overcome obstacles. While Mercury retrograde continues its backspin until mid-month, this New Moon will complement the retrograde's reflective nature. You can use this time to create vision boards, journal your wishes, or meditate on areas where you've been looking for answers. This lunation will help illuminate blind spots and provide the clarity you need moving forward.
Be patient—your ideas may not take form immediately but will unfold later this month. Trust the process, and hold firm to your vision.
As we move into December 6, Mars will retrograde in Leo, inviting us to hit the brakes and reassess how we use our energy, particularly in love, creativity, and career. This retrograde will last until February 23, 2025, so take this opportunity to reflect on your passion projects, relationships, and personal goals. Rather than pushing ahead, take a step back, strategize, and refine your approach.
On December 7, Venus enters the electric sign of Aquarius, bringing a fresh, unconventional vibe to our relationship. Love feels more exciting and spontaneous during this time, perfect for embracing new forms of connection or exploring unique romantic experiences. Whether through group activities, online communities, or quirky encounters, Venus in Aquarius encourages us to keep things fun and unpredictable.
The Full Moon in Gemini on December 15 will bring a flood of emotions, especially around communication. This lunation makes a dreamy aspect to Neptune, making it a perfect time for creative expression—whether through writing, art, or other forms of imaginative work. However, be mindful of confusing or exaggerated exchanges. If you feel unsure, trust your intuition, but avoid making major emotional decisions. On the same day, Mercury goes direct, bringing much-needed clarity to areas that have felt stalled. Communications, travel plans, and crucial discussions will flow more smoothly, allowing you to make headway on projects or clear up lingering misunderstandings.
The Sun moves into Capricorn on December 21, shifting towards focus and ambition. This transit will bring a surge of energy to tackle work, career, and personal goals. However, the holidays may bring extra stress, especially around family dynamics. Remember to give yourself grace and be patient with your progress. You're moving toward your goals one step at a time.
Finally, December closes with Chiron Direct on December 29, signaling a time to accelerate your healing journey. This cosmic shift asks you to reflect on your growth over the past year and make strides toward emotional healing. As you spend time with family and loved ones, use this moment to restore and rejuvenate. Self-care practices, journaling, and honest conversations will help you move forward with a deeper sense of self-acceptance.

Read Your Sun, Moon, & Rising Signs For Your December Horoscope
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Theme: Prioritize Your Dream
Spread your wings and fly, Aries. The New Moon in Sagittarius encourages you to analyze your personal beliefs. Set a course by learning something new, traveling, or launching your dream project. This is a powerful time to set long-term goals related to growth and discovery. Mars retrograde may slow your creative or romantic pursuits, urging you to reassess your passions and how you express them. For these next couple of months, take this opportunity to review your desires and focus on what truly lights you up — we believe in you! It's time to step out of your comfort zone and claim your place within the groups, as Venus in Aquarius brings exciting connections, making this a great time to nurture friendships and collaborative projects. Mid-month, the Full Moon in Gemini illuminates communication, revealing areas where you need clarity or resolution. Clear the air and allow your heart to lead your discussion. By month's end, your confidence will be tested as the Sun moves into Capricorn, and career and public goals take center stage, inspiring you to take strategic action in your professional life. As you learn to believe in your ability to lead your life, professionally or personally, you'll gain confidence and clarity regarding your next steps.
Taurus (April 21 – May 21)
Theme: Step Out of Your Comfort Zone
It's time to be "comfortably uncomfortable," Taurus. This month attracts transformation and inner review. The New Moon in Sagittarius nudges you to look deeper into matters such as shared resources, intimacy, and vulnerability. This lunation will allow you to truly feel alive again after living on auto-pilot. Or doom-scrolling on social media, wondering about your life's possibilities. What do you want? You can plant a seed of intention regarding your desires and face your fears to make room for the Universe to give your wishes. It's a potent time for letting go of old patterns and welcoming change. These next several weeks may be challenging involving home or with family as the Mars retrograde impacts your emotional security and living situation. Avoid sweeping issues under the rug. Talk it out and find a solution. On the flip side, the love planet Venus lights up your career sector and public life. You're radiant and will attract new opportunities and recognition as you believe in your vision--you got this! By mid-month, the Full Moon in Gemini powers up your finances, helping you reassess your values and long-term financial goals. Be mindful of excessive spending. For the last half of the month, the Sun moves into Capricorn. Your focus shifts to your purpose and long-term goals. Share your vision with those near and dear and receive valuable feedback.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
Theme: Live in the Moment
As the social butterfly of the zodiac, this month will open your eyes regarding your connections and identity, Gemini. The New Moon in Sagittarius sparks new beginnings in your personal or professional partnerships, offering fresh opportunities for growth and connection. Make a move if you desire to see changes in your relationship. However, these next several weeks will test your ability to convey messages as Mars retrograde may bring delays or misunderstandings in your communication. To work with this, reflect before speaking. The wonderful part about this retrograde is that you can slow down and methodically express your ideas and energy to others. You'll feel more energized as you discern. The planet Venus phasing into Aquarius enhances your sense of adventure, encouraging you to seek new experiences and expand your knowledge through travel, learning, or philosophical pursuits. If you have been contemplating solo traveling or taking a class—do it. By mid-month, the Full Moon in your sign illuminates your identity, urging you to do some soul-searching. Reflect on who you are and what you truly want moving forward. As the Sun enters Capricorn, things will continue to quiet down as your focus shifts to shared resources and deeper emotional connections. Assess your intimate connections and learn to enjoy living in the moment.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Theme: Clear Your Space
Are you ready to get organized, Cancer? The New Moon in Sagittarius invites you to set intentions around your daily routines and work life, encouraging you to create a more balanced and fulfilling lifestyle. Learn how to utilize your time and invest in your well-being. If you need help getting started, begin by decluttering your workspace. You'll feel a dramatic shift in your body. The Mars retrograde may stir up financial uncertainties in the next few months. Don't worry. You can power up your self-worth and stance with money by reassessing your values and spending habits. Analyze how you manage your resources and make adjustments that align with your long-term security. Here's the fun part: Venus in Aquarius will boost your intimacy sector. So, if you have been feeling distant lately with your SO, now is your chance to cozy up or go for date night. This deepened bond can be the healing balm to help you communicate better and power up your joint financial matters. The Full Moon in Gemini mid-month will help you close the chapter on unwanted habits linked to your subconscious patterns. Start a meditation practice, journal, or a cord-cutting ritual for healing and closure. By month's end, the Sun moves into Capricorn, and partnerships take center stage, shifting the focus on your relationships and how you negotiate. If communication isn't your strong suit, now is your chance to have a heart-to-heart discussion to get answers or reach a solution.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
Theme: Self-love and Acceptance
Self-love will be your central theme this month, Leo. The New Moon in Sagittarius starts your month with a creative promise and invites you to take on new endeavors, passions, and romantic exchanges. It's a perfect time to set intentions involving what brings you joy in the moment. The Mars retrograde will help you pinpoint your sense of self and assess your appearance and the kind of energy you emit to others. Although it will be "triggering" untapped emotions these next several weeks, be reflective and observe your feelings before expressing them impulsively. Later this month, your primary focus will pivot to partnerships as Venus enters your relationship sector. Be open-minded and listen--it will bring fresh energy into your love life and relationships. Then, the Full Moon in Gemini illuminates your social circles and aspirations, allowing you to evaluate your connections and assess how they align with your vision. It may be a time to let go of these connections or reach out to those you're wondering about. Rekindle or let go. As the month closes, the Sun in Capricorn shifts to your care and well-being. Book a solo spa day, energy healing, or acupuncture treatment. You'll feel more in your body and present.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Theme: Reset Your Happiness
It's time to reset and live the life of your dreams, Virgo. It all begins with you recalibrating your mindset. December brings a mix of personal reflection and career focus. The New Moon in Sagittarius lights up your home and family sector, helping you visualize your ideal living situation and emotional needs. This is your chance to figure out where you feel most at peace. Mars retrograde will help you slow down and confront your unwanted subconscious patterns, hidden fears, and past wounds that impact your sense of self. Clear out and consolidate your best interests. Then, Venus in Aquarius later this month brings serendipitous energy to your work and daily routines as you allow the Universe to guide you. Look for signs or synchronicities, and you'll receive clues on finding harmony and balance in your life. By mid-month, the Full Moon in Gemini clarifies your career path and assesses your professional goals and public image. To live your dreams, take a chance and count on what motivates you. Let go. Finally, as the Sun moves into Capricorn, it extends support to your creative ventures, and you'll feel like you have a second chance to live out your passion.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
Theme: It's All Fun and Games
Expect a month filled with endless banter, fun, and happiness, Libra. If you have hit a brick wall trying to convey a message lately, this New Moon in Sagittarius initiates a new approach to articulating your message or idea. Expect energizing exchanges with others and set intentions around learning, networking, and expressing your ideas. You'll reach a breakthrough. There will be a slight snag in the next several weeks as Mars retrogrades in your network sector, encouraging you to reflect on your social circles or revamp your social media profile. Permit yourself to take the backseat and note how you feel about the groups or information you have been aligning with. Analyze your energy. Later this month, you're one lucky star, as Venus in Aquarius will level up your romantic endeavors while it energizes your charisma. It's also a potent time to bring fresh energy and excitement to your personal life. Go out and have a date with yourself, schedule date night with your S.O., or take on an activity that brings you infinite joy. Then, later this month, the Full Moon in Gemini illuminates your belief systems, travel, and higher education, pushing you to reflect on your worldview and what you’ve learned this year. Write a gratitude list and see how much you have accomplished. Give thanks. As the Sun enters Capricorn, expect to dial down as the focus turns to home and family, inspiring you to nurture your emotional foundations and create a sense of stability.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Theme: Choose Your Path
Are you ready to get serious, Scorpio? December spotlights on your finances, career, and emotional foundations. The New Moon in Sagittarius manifests new opportunities leading to financial growth. This is your time to set goals or make that pitch at work. Consolidate your time and resources and make it happen. Over the next several weeks, the Mars retrograde in your career sector will help you slow down and observe your professional path and public image. The dreams you placed on the back burner will reappear, and you'll face a choice to take it or leave it. Trust. Your inner self and family life will take center stage as Venus in Aquarius brings a refreshing outlook to your dealings with domestic life. Take a well-deserved vacation or spend time with family to nurture deeper connections within the home. Mid-month, the Full Moon in Gemini will help you dig deeper and explore your feelings and past insecurities involving intimacy or shared resources. Prioritize rest to revitalize your energy. You'll feel a shift by month's end when the Sun enters Capricorn. Ideas and information flow seamlessly, and getting involved in a local community or learning something new will circulate inspiration. Prioritize moments of stillness to build steadily toward your long-term endeavors.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Theme: Be Magical
Did you know that you're made from star stuff, Sagittarius? This month will be magical, and your dreams will finally take form. The New Moon in your sign shines a spotlight on you, manifesting new beginnings around your identity, self-image, and personal goals. It's a powerful time to set intentions, as your energy magnifies with cosmic support. Become your best version and allow the Universe to take over and grant your wishes. The Mars retrograde these next several weeks will put your magic to the test as it prompts you to rethink your personal beliefs and long-term vision. It’s a time to reflect on what truly resonates with your values and worldview. Remember that life is a continuous journey filled with valuable lessons. You'll feel like you're on cloud nine with Venus in Aquarius, granting you confidence and creative expression. Be curious, try something new, share your ideas with others, and be open-minded to feedback to attract success. Later this month, the Full Moon in Gemini illuminates your one-on-one relationships and their direction. Communicate openheartedly and hold space for your partner to express their true feelings. It will be a revelatory night. Financial goals will then be your priority by the end of the month as the Sun enters Capricorn. Reassess your self-worth and power up your confidence by monitoring your spending habits and approach to money. Remember that you're magical, and with a refined approach, you'll reach your desired outcome.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Theme: Slow and Steady Wins the Race
Rome wasn't built in a day, Capricorn. This month invites you to dive deep into self-reflection and reinvention. The New Moon in Sagittarius lights up your subconscious realms, and it would be of your highest good to set intentions for inner healing, spiritual growth, and releasing any residual baggage or fears. Begin a sacred practice, meditate, or begin dream journaling for clarity. The driven planet Mars retrograde in your hidden sector these next several weeks will shed light on your shared resources, intimate connections, and emotional boundaries. It will be a testy time with financial issues or lingering power dynamics. Confront these matters by expressing your concerns with your S.O. or being truthful. Vulnerability and humility will be your best friends during this retrograde. Then Venus in Aquarius shifts your focus to your finances, bringing opportunities to reassess your values, increase your income, or realize your worth. Begin an affirmation practice and witness the changes. It's time to flex those mental or physical muscles. The Full Moon in Gemini spotlights your work environment and health routines. Reflect on your daily habits and assess your desired changes for better balance and well-being. The fog begins to lift as the Sun enters your sign, and now you step up, ready to set new personal goals and start a fresh chapter. Success is just around the corner as long as you honor your pace.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 19)
Theme: Find Your Aesthetic
Have you been wishing and hoping for a breakthrough, Aquarius? Well, this month will breathe new life into your social connections, relationships, and long-term goals. A new chapter begins with the New Moon in Sagittarius, which occurs in your friendship and network sector. Set your sights and intentions around expanding your social network, align with those who match your vibe, and share your vision. With Mars retrograde in your relationship sector, partnerships and their progression will slow down. Avoid signing contracts or agreements and review them later. Reflect on your current one-on-one relationships (personal or professional) and analyze how you navigate conflicts. As Venus enters your sign, expect to feel lighter, confident, and inspired to beautify your inner and outer self. Later this month, the Full Moon in Gemini highlights the direction of your story involving your creative endeavors and love life. Evaluate your priorities in these realms and make necessary adjustments that align with your heart and overall happiness. This month concludes with the Sun in Capricorn, helping you turn inward and prioritizing rest, reflection, and spiritual renewal. Pause and analyze your internal landscape and practice cord-cutting or release work for unwanted habits to make room for the Universe to send you opportunities.
Pisces (February 20 – March 21)
Theme: Take A Chance On You
Are you ready to step into your power, Pisces? It may feel like you have been in a forever chrysalis stage. December brings career reflection, personal healing, and social renewal. The New Moon in Sagittarius activates your career sector, highlighting your professional goals, public image, and ambitions. However, this is your moment to realize what you truly want and to believe in yourself. Create a vision board, and set small goals to reach your dreams. It’s a powerful time to manifest your professional path and long-term success. Mars retrograde will inspire you to reassess your daily routines, health habits, and work-life balance for the next several weeks. Although it isn't a time to make a significant decision in the career realm, it will be a preparatory time to strengthen your resolve by improving your well-being rather than just "pushing" through burnout. The great news is that Venus is on your side to beautify your inner self as it takes residence in your subconscious realms over the next few weeks. Explore your path to inner healing, self-love, and rest. Clear out the energetic gunk of the past and see the beauty you hold inside your heart. Later this month, the Full Moon in Gemini clarifies your emotional foundations and what you need to feel secure. Invest time in ancestral healing, inner child work, or speak with elders to find peace and clarity. The Sun entering Capricorn will turn up your social life and future aspirations. You'll feel more in your skin as you engage with new groups and networks. Remember that you're worthy of sharing your gifts with the world.
