Union Horoscopes

By Acacia Rodriguez

This quarter, we bring you horoscopes as foretold by labor clairvoyants. Choose your astrological sign according to your birthdate or take a look at your rising, moon, and 10th house signs. Do you resonate with your reading, labor activist?

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

This month finds your voice floating amongst many, raising the bar for a greater good. Aquarians are an innovative and revolutionary bunch. What better way to embrace your humanitarian tendencies than to take stock of your union benefits and help spread the word? From legal services and premium-free health care to the DC 37 Dental Center, there are a variety of benefits designed to care for union family members.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)

Look into the cosmos, Pisces, and be expansive in who you consider family. If there are new coworkers on your team, talk to them about the power of joining their union. If it’s at the familial level, look into the new DC 37 Child Care Trust for reimbursements for child care or Paid Family Leave for time off to care for the new addition.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

This month finds others walking in your footsteps as you trailblaze a path forward. Be bold and fiery— make plans to join the next solidarity action or rally. Create a sign that speaks to your unique point of view on the benefits of organized labor. Pick out your favorite DC 37 green T-shirt and get ready to march!

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

When was the last time you took a day off, Taurus? Check your PTO balance! As an earth sign, it’s important to stay grounded, and you can’t do that if you’re burned out. To restore yourself, book a massage or give DC 37’s Personal Service Unit (PSU) a call to connect with a Social Worker and offload some stress.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

Your backbone is strong and your feet are planted as you face the storm of anti-union campaigns. If there’s one sign that can’t be outmaneuvered, it’s a Gemini who understands all sides. Attend your local’s general membership meeting to gather information from your fellow union siblings and be ready to offer your unique perspective on how to push back on any anti-union activity.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

This month finds you at the table and not on the menu. As a water sign who is big on feelings, can you sense from the workplace energy what’s coming? Your colleagues need your intuitive abilities to outsmart predatory management practices. Consider attending a shop steward training or connecting with your local representatives before any major developments. Your proactivity will be rewarded.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)

Your voice carries far and wide this month as your colleagues follow your lead. Everywhere you go, people cannot ignore your vivacity. Let’s hear you roar, Leo! You’re an excellent candidate for joining a union committee and attracting more members to participate. Consider attending a Pride Diversity Interest Group (PDIG), Climate Justice, or Cultural Committee meeting to add your sparkle to their next planned event.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

This month finds you rising to the occasion as you continuously stand for what is right and just. Use your sharp discernment to become more involved in the union’s political activities. Attend a Political Action Committee meeting, sign up to contribute to PEOPLE, or become a Volunteer Member Organizer (VMO) for the next GOTV campaign.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

Your tree of activism will bear the fruits of success, Libra. As an air sign who seeks equilibrium, you’re just the person to balance the scales of justice with your voice! Speak with your local president and consider submitting testimony to the DC 37 Political Action & Legislation Department to help shape policies that protect all workers.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

This month finds your ripples of actions turning into waves of change. Like flowing water, you can pour yourself into many different containers, and your union can be one of them! Get to know colleagues you don’t normally see at your worksite by reading through the latest PEPtalk. Learn how, through a wide variety of members and voices, DC 37 runs New York.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Sagittarians seek knowledge, and your fire blazes the path forward in your quest for wisdom. Not everyone can handle the heat. This month, direct that energy into one of the classes or training programs offered by the DC 37 Education Fund to expand your skillset and career outlook.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

This month finds your plate full of responsibilities that will feed those you love. Capricorns are grounded, focused workers who excel in navigating the material and spiritual realm. Attending the next DC 37 Housing Program webinar could prepare you for the significant milestone of purchasing your first home and providing a new space for your family.
