It’s November, a time of transformation and gratitude. What are you grateful for? Contemplate the beauty and power of a generous and open heart. There are many versions of the Golden Rule. This one is most important to remember and practice now– “I will not do to others what was done to me.”

“In a world where you can be anything, be kind.” Ann Angel

FOR ALL OF US: 

“I love you, my sister and brother, whoever you are– whether you worship in your church, kneel in your temple, or pray in your mosque. You and I are all children of one faith, for the diverse paths of religion are fingers of the loving hand of one Supreme Being, a hand extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, eager to receive all.” Khalil Gibran

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20) It’s time to deal with unresolved issues from your past. Life can be a whole lot easier for you if you’re not carrying the weight of old baggage. You have a reservoir of natural courage; tap into it and let it help you unburden yourself.

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20) You’re very impressionable right now. And the advice of others may not be as helpful as you think. You’re aware of so much more than you consciously know, so it’s best to go within– meditate, journal, contemplate– and pay attention to the signs that present themselves to you as you listen to your own inner voice.

THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) Most of the time, you’re told to “figure it out”. Not this time, though. The best way to get and maintain clarity is by staying neutral. All of the facts aren’t in yet and instead of joining the others and jumping to conclusions, calmly stand in the center of the situation. Your grace under pressure approach will be noticed and rewarded.

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) You are finally becoming aware of how powerful your thoughts, words, and energy are. Remember, as you think “it” and say “it”, you will discover that your words and energy give form to your thoughts and words. It’s an excellent time to follow the advice of the great Auntie Mame— “Live, dahling, live. Life is a banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death!.”

THE SUN (July 21 – August 22) This is a very prolific time for you. You can achieve a lot by prioritizing your tasks and then methodically completing them. The stress of the past few months is dissipating and life is becoming a rewarding adventure again. Plan well and go with the flow. You’ll receive help from the Universe in unexpected ways.

THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22) The planet that rules Spirit, illusion, and imagination is challenging you to open up to limitless possibilities. Please don’t resist– go with it! You’ll love the results. You’re changing in a profound way and it’s time for you to discover the new you. Embark upon your new life adventures and give yourself permission to trust your intuition.

JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) Your assignment at this time is to relax. Let go of the angst and heaviness you’ve been feeling burdened with. Please remember that your new theme song is from “Frozen”– “Let It Go.” The most important task at hand is to memorize the lyrics and break out into song whenever the mood strikes you.

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) Yes, you are magical and you do see life differently! Great things naturally happen for you if you allow yourself to express your abilities to create in the moment. That is your gift– live it and enjoy it! Remember Einstein’s quote– “Imagination is more important than knowledge.”

 THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21) It’s time to put your natural gifts of charm and persuasion to good use. People from all walks of life are ready and willing to help you manifest your vision; all you have to do is ask. Not only will you get much needed assistance; you’ll also learn one of life’s more important lessons– it’s OK (and often necessary) to ask for help. Do remember to use this powerful gift with gratitude, responsibility, and respect.

THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) With your ruling planet, Saturn, in the sign that governs the imagination, it’s time to build foundations under those beautiful castles that you’ve built in the air. Helpful people are waiting in the wings to help you manifest your visions. Invite them to share in promoting you and your visions for a more wonderful future. Acknowledge and thank them for their help and just as importantly, thank yourself for acknowledging your gift and allowing it to flourish.

THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) Your intuitive abilities and your intellectual capabilities are in sync at this time. Be careful how you use this combined gift and the awareness that comes with it. Express yourself with tact and diplomacy. The information you get is just as important as the manner in which you communicate it to others.

THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) The planet that governs lessons, discipline, and rewards has recently entered your sign. Which means that the Universe will insist that you learn what your true value is, that you experience the meanings of boundaries and freedom based on your new found revelations, and that you relinquish your hold on any belief system that is not correct for you. Although this might sound a bit daunting, it’s actually a great time to establish and enrich yourself physically and spiritually. Pay attention to your intuition, it will always guide you well.

It’s September, the beginning of the harvest. Here, we begin to see the “crop” we’ve been growing all year. What are the results that we dedicated our time, energy, hearts, and actions to in 2023? Your message this month is in the form of a quote. Filter this year’s experiences through the lens of your quote. Whatever needs acknowledgement and praise– do it through the lens of your quote. Whatever needs acknowledgement and constructive criticism– do it through the lens of your quote.

We’re also going through another ritual “re” phase of Mercury Retrograde until September 15^th. Mercury is the planet of communication, so please check and re-check, and then check again all plans, appointments, and reservations. Please remember that during Mercury Retrogrades, it’s a great time for introspection and personal “re” work– reflection, retreat, review, reinvention. Since Mercury rules communication, transportation, and contracts, when it’s retrograde, all manner of mistakes and misunderstandings can occur. If you can, please hold off on buying (or leasing) any big-ticket items and wait until Mercury goes direct before making any big decisions. Please practice patience with compassion, remember to focus on the big picture, go easy on yourself and others, and accept that there will be delays, so please factor in extra time in your schedule, and above all, please don’t take anything personally.

THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) “What saves a person is to take a step. Then another step. And then another step. It is always the same step, but you have to take it.” Antoine de Saint-Exupery

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) “People often become what they believe themselves to be. If I believe I cannot do something, it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe I can, then I acquire the ability to do it even if I didn’t have it in the beginning.” Mahatma Gandhi

THE SUN (July 21 – August 22) “The great composer does not set to work because he is inspired, but becomes inspired because he is working. Beethoven, Wagner, Bach and Mozart settled down day after day to the job in hand. They didn’t waste time waiting for inspiration.” Ernest Newman

JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) “Embrace fully your capacity to create, to think in unlimited ways, and to pursue everything that you have been wanting.

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) “We must listen to the child that we once were, and who still lives within us. This child understands about magic instants. We can muffle his sobbing, but we can’t hush his voice.” Paulo Coelho

THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21) “This is the purpose of life– to get what you want. There are deeper things, but this is fun.” Karl Lagerfeld

THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) “There is only one real sin and that is to persuade oneself that the second best is anything but second best.” Doris Lessing

THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) “Never apologize for showing feelings. When you do so, you apologize for truth.” Benjamin Disraeli

THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) “We are not creatures of circumstance; we are creators of circumstance– carpe diem!” Benjamin Disraeli

It’s June and in a few weeks, it’ll officially be Summer. The Summer Solstice is the half-way point in the celestial calendar marking a time of blossoms and bounty in all areas of life for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere. For those in the Southern Hemisphere, it’ll be the Winter Solstice– a time of gathering and going within to refresh the soul.

We are now living in interesting, profound times. What we’re experiencing is the stuff of books, legend, and history. Every profound experience of our lives has a song or sound track accompanying it. Whether we’re familiar with the tune or not, whenever we hear it, we come face-to-face with our recollection of the experiences that the song evokes. Your message this month comes in the form of a song. As you listen to it, allow those old recollections to come to your consciousness so that you can clearly see what/who/where you are, as well as what’s really yours and what isn’t any more.

This month’s theme song is– Stevie Wonder’s “Loves in Need of Love Today” by Billy Porter & the wonderful cast of Pose—  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lD2PfWganbU

It’s spring in the Northern hemisphere– at last!  Let’s show the weather how it’s done by breaking out all of those ideas, plans and projects you’ve been promising yourself you’d begin once the conditions were right. Mercury, the planet of communication, will go retrograde on April 21^st so, expect the unexpected. Remember to be insightful– it’s where the answers are. Mercury retrogrades are great for introspection and personal “re” work– reflection, retreat, review, reinvention. Since Mercury rules communication, transportation and contracts, when it’s retrograde, all manner of mistakes and misunderstandings can occur. If you can, please hold off on buying (or leasing) any big-ticket items and wait until Mercury goes direct on May 14^th before making any big decisions. Please practice patience with compassion, remember to focus on the big picture, and go easy on yourself and others. There will be delays, so factor in extra time in your schedule, and above all, please don’t take the vicissitudes of life personally.

“Though the seas threaten, they are merciful. I have cursed them without cause.” William Shakespeare

and

“In a world where you can be anything, be kind.” Caroline Flack

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20) It’s time for you to reflect on your motives and actions and reevaluate the situation you’re in now. It’s time to consciously process your recent experiences in order to put them in proper perspective. The information you get will serve as a springboard for you as you embark upon an inner adventure that promises to reveal the essence of your power to you.

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20) Things are changing fast and you must be on the alert.  Many of the agreements you make with others at this time may not work out as planned, which you’ll come to realize, is a good thing. Carefully think through your game plan and have contingency plans ready.  Unexpected help will assist you in becoming a winner.

 THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) Your ruling planet, Mercury, will go retrograde on April 21^st and you’ll have several new opportunities to choose from in the next few months. Although they could appear to “shake up” your life, don’t choose in haste or try to take the easy way out. You deserve the best, so make your decisions based on what will be good for you in the long term.

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) The decisions that you make at this time about your life and your goals must be based on your being completely honest with yourself. The actions you take based on this very important self-assessment will be empowered by the degree of courageous honesty you embrace. Be willing to be true to yourself and you will reap wonderful rewards.

THE SUN (July 21 – August 22) A new, improved social life is at hand. So, go out to new places and meet a whole new group of like-minded people. And remember, your only obligation is to have fun! Recharging your batteries this way prepares you for the next phase of your journey.

THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22) Mercury is your ruling planet, too, and your instructions are similar to THE LOVERS with this additional message– Mercury rules the body’s nervous system, so it’s very important that you get rid of any accumulated tension by making sure you relax and schedule a bit more down time.

JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) It’s nearly time for you to put your plans into action. Right now though, it’s time for some fine-tuning. You must make some very important choices that will affect the outcome of this and future plans. Trust your intuition and you’ll discover a key piece of information that will make all the difference. Stay focused and stay in gratitude.

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) It’s nearly time for you to put your plans into action.  Right now though, it’s time for some fine-tuning.  You must make some very important choices that will affect the outcome of this and future plans.  A key piece of information will come from an unexpected source.

THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21) We are indeed, living in interesting times. Whether you consider this to be a blessing or a curse depends on your perspective. Choose to see these times and events as a blessing and you’ll reap the rewards of powerful assistance, wondrous luck, and unexpected opportunities.

THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) Acknowledge yourself for being the fiercely committed warrior that you’ve become. Although it’s been a long time coming– you and your hard work are about to be rewarded with the prize you’ve worked for. Remember to express your gratitude to yourself and to all of those who’ve helped you along the way.        

THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) There are profound changes coming your way and how you handle yourself will make all the difference. Focus on staying centered and let your intuition guide you. Transformation can be scary, but the rewards will be great. Plus, you’ll have learned to master two of your most important tools– strength and determination.

THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) A change of perspective will help you see that the help and circumstances you’ve been looking for have been there all along. Once you’ve seen them, if you focus on what’s needed, committing to the action required, and taking that action, you’ll achieve your desired goals. And please remember, practicing patience will help enlighten and ground you.

February is a short and sweet month. What you do to make this month meaningful is up to you. Astrologically, it’s the month of the Soul and our kinship with all of humanity. Focus on being a good friend and ally to yourself and others.

For All of Us:

“In a world where you can be anything, be kind.” Caroline Flack

and

“I love you, my sister and brother, whoever you are– whether you worship in your church, kneel in your temple or pray in your mosque. You and I are all children of one faith, for the diverse paths of religion are fingers of the loving hand of one Supreme Being, a hand extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, eager to receive all.” Khalil Gibran

 

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20) Your energies are in alignment with the Universe’s intention for you. Take a good look at the people in your environment and notice who is encouraging you and contributing to your progress and who is just passive-aggressively undermining your efforts. Do the people you’re spending time with reflect your ambition? If they don’t, you’re casting your lot with people whose energy doesn’t match yours. It’s time to let go of them and open the way for those who want to help you succeed.

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20) Your ruling planet, Venus, governs beauty, balance, and self-value, as well as the ability to live in harmony with your soul’s intention for you. Whatever you’re holding on to is blocking that harmony from operating effectively in your life. Let go and release yourself from old, outdated beliefs and relationships. Make the subconscious conscious– the insights you gain will help you attain a new level of understanding and freedom.

 THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) Normally, you excel at handling details. Not now, though. Too much attention to detail is narrowing your focus and slowing your momentum. An important part of creation and manifestation is the ability to see all of the ‘moving parts’ as they come together. You’ll get lots of inspiration from letting life approach you this way– it’s an exhilarating experience and you’ll love the results.

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) A lot’s going on right now and your big challenge is to remain focused and avoid being distracted. Keeping a daily journal will help you stay centered and remind you of your goals. Writing will help you stay connected to your natural intuitive senses. You’ll want to have a record of all of the brilliant intuitive flashes of insight that come to you.

 THE SUN (July 21 – August 22)Things are not always what they seem, especially now. No matter how you get your news, please remember to consider the source. There’s a lot of needless drama playing out in front of you– don’t let it suck you in. Let your heart and intuition be your guides– you’ll be glad you did and you’ll also have the last laugh.

THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22) Your perception of the world and the world’s perception of you are changing. Although you’ll find yourself wanting to hold on to what you once knew, please don’t. To make the transition easier, schedule quality time for yourself. By so doing, you’ll align your old and new focus with purpose and clarity.

JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) “The sky is falling, the sky is falling!” “It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” If either of these quotes have validity in your life at present, please take a good look at who or what is currently trying to influence you. It’s important that you remember to stay grounded and trust your judgement.

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) It’s best if you step up your game and go for it! Go for what? you might ask. The very thing that plucks your heart strings, that’s what. The time for waiting is over. The circumstances and the help you need are waiting in the wings for you to make that first all-important move.

WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21 Your soul is asking, “What have you done for me, lately?” It’s time to reward yourself by surrounding yourself with beauty and grace. You are on the verge of beginning a new chapter in your life. Let the energy of the events of the past few months sink in so that you’re ready for expansive experiences that are coming your way.

THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) Your horizons have broadened. Take stock of your current situation and make plans to introduce yourself to interesting new people, places, and experiences. Expand your knowledge and enhance your life by interacting with life in a completely new way. It’s your time to stand in the light of the Sun– enjoy the warmth, acknowledgement, and adoration.

THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) You can be quite stubborn when you put your mind to it. Now is not the time for that, though. It’s time to notice what that stubbornness is costing you and transform that great stubbornness into co-operative flexibility. As you do so, the Universe will open up to you and reveal previously unrealized rewards.

THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) Your ideas are fine; you do need to take a different approach, though. It’s time to change your perspective so that everything falls into alignment with your new stance in life. What you see from this new vantage point will give you all that you need to successfully manifest your creations.

2023 is numerologically a “7” Universal year. “7” years are great for introspection and discovering your own inner truth. 2023 will be a year of coming face-to-face with who you are and what you value. “7” years are considered spiritual years because you must go within and confer with your Higher Power in order to honestly move forward as a soul. Beginning 2023– a “7” year– during a Mercury retrograde is a double reminder that introspection, self-discovery, and a spiritual connection are very important to you as an individual and as a member of the world community.

From December 29^th to January 18, 2023, the planet of communication and plans will be retrograde (appearing to go backwards). Mercury retrogrades are great for introspection and personal “re” work– reflection, retreat, review, reinvention. Since Mercury rules communication, transportation and contracts, when it’s retrograde, all manner of mistakes and misunderstandings can occur. If you can, please hold off on buying (or leasing) any big-ticket items and wait until Mercury goes direct before making any big decisions. Please practice patience with compassion, remember to focus on the big picture, go easy on yourself and others, and accept that there will be delays, so please factor in extra time in your schedule, and above all, please don’t take the vicissitudes of life personally.

Your message this month comes in a quote that also represents your theme for the year 2023. During this “7” year of introspection, please examine your life, motives, feelings, hopes, wishes, dreams and relationships through the lens of this quote.

It’s eclipse season! The celestial Lights (Sun and Moon) are giving us the gifts of healing and transformation. Courage and self-honesty are the all-access passes you’ll need to benefit from these larger than life energies. This is an idea whose time has come, so don’t resist it– go with the flow.

“Though the seas threaten, they are merciful. I have cursed them without cause.” William Shakespeare

and

“In a world where you can be anything, be kind.” Caroline Flack

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20) This month there are a lot of distractions, so keep your heart and attention focused on your goal. The positive forces of the Universe are partnering with you now, do welcome them in and pay close attention to your intuition and be receptive of all of the luck and blessings coming your way.

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20) You’re being shaken from your complacent view of the world in order to properly deal with what’s going on around you. Now is the time to take a good look at your environment, who’s in it, and their effect on you. As you do so, you’ll notice who is cheering you on as well as who is standing in your way, energetically blocking you as you work on making your hopes and dreams come true.

THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) There is a lot of attention focused on you now. If you stay centered and follow your intuition, you’ll discover that your efforts are paying off handsomely. By January, you’ll be much clearer about the direction you’re taking as you build secure foundations and strong, supportive structures to support your creative inspirations.

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) The hard emotional work you’re doing is beginning to pay off. Your ability to combine persistence, talent, and luck will bring unexpected rewards your way. Make sure you acknowledge the people who’ve helped you on your journey– the energy of gratitude goes a long way! Influential people will take an interest in you and speed your progress.

THE SUN (July 21 – August 22) When one door closes, another one opens. The doors that lead to your past are beginning to close and your story is taking an important turn. Instead of getting emotional about it and trying to stop progress, surrender to these important and necessary changes and you’ll notice the new opportunities available to you. Please remember to be kind to yourself.

 THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22) As the Winter season approaches, it’s a great time for soul-searching and being honest with yourself. This is the most empowering course of action for you during the weeks leading up to the new year. The realizations you come to will help you create the kind of results you want in your life and will bring you the rewards you’ve been working so hard for.

JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) This is not the time to make obvious outward changes. You still need to gather more information, so remember to bide your time. During the next few weeks, you’ll discover all  you’ll need to profitably connect the dots and get the answers you’re looking for. Use this time to sort through the events of the recent past, which will allow you to make room for the new opportunities coming your way.

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) These are intense times for you. The Lunar eclipse in your sign is demanding that you move beyond your comfort zone of control and operating under the radar. It’s time for you to transform into a new, more dynamic force. Be courageous and true to yourself as you shed the habits of the past and adopt a beneficial new view and approach to a world just waiting for you to demonstrate your brilliance.

WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21) You’ve got powerful permission from the Universe to express yourself as you explore your dreams and work to make them come true. You can more freely move forward now, so do take that leap into the next phase of your life. Use your intuition and your intellect– they’ll help you make the important decisions that will define your new purpose.

 THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) For the next few weeks, your name is Lucky. Continue facing your own truth, putting one foot in front of the other, and expressing gratitude. Whatever your plans and dreams are, please use this powerful time to take ownership of who you are and the way you want your life to be. And then– be open to receiving your bounty as you reap the rewards.

 THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) You’re at a pivotal point in your life. The key to your success is being able to properly respond to the ebb and flow of the events occurring in your life now. That magical energy, patience, is your ally. You don’t have to use your ability to make something happen– it’s already happening and the momentum you need is building all on its own. Use this time to remind yourself to trust that all you’re working toward really is coming your way.

THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) Your creative and familial “ancestors” are offering you their invaluable source of knowledge, talent, and life experience. Those who’ve gone before you are giving you attention and advice that can open new pathways for you in all areas of your life. Tap into this infinite resource and reap the benefits as you heed their gift of  wisdom based on life experience, formal learning, and spiritual guidance.

Wow! What a year so far! So much change has occurred. At this time of harvest, ask yourself, “What gifts and skills have I discovered and developed during this very transformational year?”

This year’s powerful combination of events and forces have given us the opportunity to use our natural gifts of courage, determination, and adaptability in order to know that we can manifest whatever we set our hearts and minds to.

Your message as you move through this period of assessment comes in the form of a quote or affirmation. Write or print it out, put it on your bathroom mirror, refrigerator, and/or the dashboard of your car.  Be conscious of and contemplate its message and meaning to you at this very pivotal time of the year.

FOR ALL OF US:

“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it.  Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than exposure.”  Helen Keller

and

“I love you, my sister and brother, whoever you are– whether you worship in your church, kneel in your temple or pray in your mosque.  You and I are all children of one faith, for the diverse paths of religion are fingers of the loving hand of one Supreme Being, a hand extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, eager to receive all.”  Khalil Gibran

 

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20) “Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice. Kindness is a choice. Giving is a choice. Respect is a choice. Whatever choice you make, makes you. Choose wisely.” Roy T. Bennett

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20) “In every crisis there is a message. Crises are nature’s way of forcing change– breaking down old structures, shaking loose negative habits so that something new and better can take their place.”  Susan L. Taylor

THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) “Remember always that you have not only the right to be an individual; you have an obligation to be one.  You cannot make any useful contribution in life unless you do this.”  Eleanor Roosevelt

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) “God has given you a spirit with wings with which to soar into the spacious firmament of Love and Freedom. Recognize that life is what you get when you’re born– living is what you do with it.” Anonymous

THE SUN (July 21 – August 22) “The expectations of life depend upon diligence; the mechanic that would perfect his work must first sharpen his tools.” Confucius; and “Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.  Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakens.”  Carl Jung

THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22) “In any moment, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.” Theodore Roosevelt

JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) “Knowledge and understanding are life’s faithful companions who will never prove untrue to you. For knowledge is your crown, and understanding your staff; and when they are with you, you can possess no greater treasures.” Khalil Gibran

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) “All things in this creation exist within you, and all things in you exist within creation; there is no border between you and the closest things, and there is no distance between you and the farthest things, and all things from the lowest to the loftiest, are within you as equal things– in one aspect of you are found all the aspects of existence.” Anonymous

WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21) “Life is like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you represents determinism; the way you play it is free will.”  Jawaharlal Nehru

THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) “There’s great satisfaction and power in living a courageously creative life.  When you do, the world conspires to be creative with you and magic happens.  Each of us is capable of doing potentially mysterious, empowering things, of displaying a creative energy so vital and vibrant, that everyone who sees us recognizes and connects with that same creative energy force within themselves.” Anonymous

THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) “Every human has four endowments– self-awareness, conscience, independent will, and creative imagination.  These give us the ultimate human freedom– the power to choose, to respond, to change.” Steven Covey

THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) “To dream anything you want to dream– that is the beauty of the human mind. To do anything you want to do– that is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself to test your limits– that is the courage to succeed.”  Bernard Edmonds

 

At this time of year, Nature guides us to ask ourselves these important questions– What ‘crop’ did I grow? How well did I tend it? Was/is it a profitable ‘crop’? As we answer those questions, we are also creating the space for the type of energy that will sustain and inform us during the winter season. Your message for this month is grouped together with cards of the same mode of energy expression.  The communal spirit of the gathered energy of each mode of expression will help you dynamically support your efforts as you enter into the process of completing 2022’s cycle.

Mercury, the planet of communication, will be retrograde from September 9^th to October 2nd. Introspection, intuition, and inspiration are the key words for this Mercury retrograde. Please use this opportunity to consciously go within and make note of those often brilliant flashes of insight. Then follow through with the research that’ll help you pinpoint how to profit from your discoveries.

As with all Mercury retrogrades, plans and communications will take you on a roller coaster ride. This retrograde promises to be a very intense emotional one, so please remember to remain centered and grounded, no matter what. Since Mercury rules communication, transportation, and contracts, when it’s retrograde, all manner of mistakes and misunderstandings can and will occur. If you can, hold off on buying (or leasing) any big-ticket items. It’s also a good idea to triple check any and all plans you make. This is an excellent time for research, as those things that are usually hidden from view, show themselves more easily during a Mercury retrograde period. Wait until Mercury goes direct before making any big decisions.

 

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20), THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20), JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) and THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) The energy of your mode of expression is action and activity oriented. You’ll understand the meaning and value of your journey through this year by consciously and conscientiously sorting through your feelings, fears, beliefs, and attitudes. As you take inventory, you’ll begin to see the direction you’re headed in and who and what are on the same path with you. With this new awareness, you’ll be able to continue the manifestation of your most important goals for the year. Your mantra for this season is by Dr. Jonas Salk. “If we can be courageous, one more time than we are fearful; if we can be trusting, one more time than we are anxious; if we can be cooperative, one more time than we are competitive; if we can be forgiving, one more time than we are vindictive; if we can be loving, one more time than we are hateful… we will have moved closer to the next breakthrough in our evolution.”   

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20), THE SUN (July 21 – August 22), THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) and THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) The energy of your mode of expression is best focused in an introspective and personal manner. For you, this year has brought you to a better place of understanding the need for transformation and the wisdom that comes through the process. Naturally profound, with a powerful way of figuring things out, you’re now ready to develop that aspect of yourself that knows how to put that information to practical use. By reviewing and practicing the mental, emotional, and spiritual lessons you’ve learned this year, you’ll be able to finish out 2022 with a great deal more passion and power than you’ve ever had. Your mantra for this season is by Albert Einstein. “The finest emotion of which we are capable is the mystic emotion. Herein lies the germ of all art and all true science. Anyone to whom this feeling is alien, who is no longer capable of wonderment and lives in a state of fear is a dead man. To know that what is impenetrable for us really exists and manifests itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, whose gross forms alone are intelligible to our poor faculties– this knowledge, this feeling… that is the core of the true spiritual sentiment.”

THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20), THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22), THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21) and THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) The energy of your mode of expression is found in communication with others as well as yourself. This harvest season is the time for you to consciously evoke memories of your past victories and achievements. The more you experience these moments of being purely and powerfully yourself, the more you’ll inspire and strengthen those winning aspects of yourself. As 2022 winds down, you’re also preparing for the opportunities of 2023. Your mantra for this season is by James Allen. “Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so you shall become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil.”

It’s officially summer in the Northern hemisphere and winter in the Southern hemisphere. The blossoming and harvesting processes of life on our planet are fully engaged and will produce the profitable results of sustainable fruits or serviceable knowledge. This is a great time to get in touch with the creative essence of who you are and what you’re committed to.

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20) “Ah, change– a marvelous concept for others, but why me!?”  Reluctant or not, this is a time to honestly assess your situation and leave the past behind you. By focusing on who and what are of real value to you, you will automatically be focusing on your real value, which is the actual point of this exercise. Once aware, you can make of your life what you wish.

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20) Order and change very often come from chaos. By using your natural skills of pleasant, patient persistence, you can outwait any storm or obstacle. As things settle down, remember that successful creativity, beauty, and profit are often born of chaos followed by good planning. Things are on the upswing for you as you enter an entirely new cycle.

THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) Opportunity is knocking– are you listening? Your creativity and luck are at an all-time high. People are willing to assist you as you march toward your quest– all you have to do is ask.  Remember to stay focused and listen to your intuition. If you allow yourself to be guided by that powerful inner voice, you can’t fail.

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) You are an expert at caring for others– nurturing them, solving their problems, encouraging them. It’s your turn, now– time to use your well-developed expertise for yourself. You can no longer hide your light by helping others. Make your own dreams come true by making courage and action your partners as you set off on creating the adventure of your life.

THE SUN (July 21 – August 22) Are you giving your power to the fears of the past or the possibilities of the future? Whatever you focus on in the present determines your future. Take stock of your progress and commit to seeing your vision through to the end. Not only will you achieve the success you desire, you will grow and benefit in ways you never expected.

THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22) Your well-known penchant for only trusting the facts won’t serve you, now. Although, the “facts” show you one picture, things are not what they seem.  What you think is right and what you know in your heart are two different things. You must rely on your intuitive sense for guidance– nothing else will do.

JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) Who you know does matter. Influential people will step forward to assist you in whatever you’ve put your energy into in the last few months. Because of your commitment to your goal, it’s coming to fruition now. Take this time to review and do some fine-tuning. Be receptive, grateful and gracious as you celebrate your victory.

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) Though your specialty is control, this is a time to surrender. If you want to have what you want, you must be willing to relinquish control of how it comes to you and who delivers it. Yes, as strange as it may seem, God does have a better plan and better timing than you. Listen to your intuition, ask for and accept guidance, and you will have something wonderful to celebrate!

WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21) You’re at a crossroads now. Do you do what you’ve always done (therefore, getting what you’ve always gotten) or do you trust your vision and follow it to a successful conclusion? Commit to your vision and let it lead you to a new level of power and success.

THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) Perspective is important. How do you see the glass– half full or half empty? Despite apparent setbacks, please don’t be discouraged– all of your hard work will pay off. The reason for the delay is two-fold, (1) to strengthen your faith and patience, and (2) to create a solid, long lasting, supportive foundation for you and your future endeavors. Continue doing what you are doing– it’s working.

THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) You can’t “push the river.”  Now is the time to listen to your inner voice and plan. The action you long for will come soon. When it does, you need to be ready by knowing how to keep your feet firmly on the ground as you deal with the sudden, unexpected occurrences that will bring victory closer to you.

THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) The instructions for manifesting what you want are simple. Keep your feet on the ground, listen to your intuition, focus on what you want, take appropriate action, have faith. Yes, the instructions are simple and because you have followed those simple instructions, the manifestation process is nearly complete. By doing so, you are not only creating what you want; you are also aligning yourself with the secret of manifestation.
