If you’re freaking out that Friday the 13th is about to happen, your intuition is not that far off. The current astrology is super intense, and the fact that September 13 happens to be a Friday is just adding another thing to a very long list of difficulties. Although everyone could be feeling frustrated or overwhelmed, there are four zodiac signs who will feel the impact of this cosmic cocktail the most.

All your life, you’ve been taught to fear Friday the 13th. From horror movies to biblical superstitions, there’s no shortage of dark lore surrounding this mysterious calendrical alignment that seems to creep up on you out of nowhere. According to Phillips Stevens, Jr., associate professor of anthropology at the University at Buffalo, Friday the 13th gets a bad rap because of certain coincidences presented in the bible. For example—there were 13 people at the Last Supper, the night before Good Friday, when Jesus was crucified. But does the negative hype live up to the reality? Is all the fear-mongering warranted? As it turns out, not so much.

Some spiritualists and philosophers say Friday the 13th has been done a disservice. In fact, it is even considered by many—including myself—to be the date of the “Divine Feminine.” Friday is the day of the week that is ruled by Venus, planet of love and beauty. In numerology, 13 is a symbol of transformation—a number that could be considered a vehicle of change, reform, and innovation. Essentially, Friday the 13th is one big opportunity to tap into your power and manifest your desires. This passionately charged energy can encourage you to take big strides. Not exactly something you need to fear, is it?

However, astrology never stops—not even for a second. And currently, the planets are up against a lot of intensity, because we are delving deeper and deeper into a pivotal eclipse season. Taking place on September 17, the first lunar eclipse in Pisces since 2016 arrives, jumpstarting an entirely new story. And in the lead up to this date, the drama will only continue to heat up.

On Friday the 13th, the moon will be in stoic and controlled Capricorn, where the moon is to its own detriment. Capricorn moons are difficult transit and of themselves, but combined with the fact that it will be in opposition with Mars in Cancer—where Mars is debilitated—this could be extra spicy and uncomfortable. Prepare for emotions to pop off and for arguments to lead to tears. Remember—you don’t necessarily have control over how you feel, but you do have a say in how you choose to react.

These zodiac signs will feel Friday the 13th the most

Be kind to yourself, as you’re processing some deep, internal changes and gearing up for something different. If your sun sign, moon sign, or rising sign falls under any of the following, here’s what you need to know about how Friday the 13th will affect you:
