ARIES (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Influenced by the KNIGHT OF CUPS
Music: Sons and Daughters – Allman Brown & Liz Lawrence, WHEN I WAS OLDER (Music Inspired By The Film ROMA) – Billie Eilish, Match In The Rain – Alec Benjamin
Aries, it’s time to look at that heart. Like, really look at it. Think of the image of a child with a magnifying glass examining insects in the grass, noticing every little detail with their young, impressionable and innocent viewpoint. This is you now. Acknowledging the grossness without an ounce of judgment or opinion. Just seeing every detail for what it is and with pure beauty. This is how I want you to explore your emotional heart, like your 3-year-old self. Where does it hold built up hurts? Where does it still burst with thoughts of those you’ve loved and those you currently love and enjoy? Look closely at the most embarrassing details and amplify them. This exploration is a preparation. Your love for another wants to burst into a new dimension of loving. And this self-love and exploration is what’s preparing you for that kind of love. Let yourself feel through all the sadness, the shame and the grief around your past. TBH, I want zero attention toward work this month. The only work related attention you should give should be toward your compassion for your coworkers. Prayers and thoughts are powerful for you this month. So, call in the kind of love and compassion from others that you practice giving out. This is my prescription: Go explore that heart, and go practice sharing it with the people who come your way in July.
Final Thought: “An invisible thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but it will never break.” – Ancient Chinese Belief
TAURUS (Apr 20 – May 20)
Influenced by THE WORLD
Music: The Cello Song – The Piano Guys, In Your Hands – Nick Mulvey, Soul Meets Body – Death Cab for Cutie
Taurus, July is the time for a studious adventure. You are taking your soul with you on this trip to the school of divine love. You are about to rediscover a part of yourself that has been hiding away, packed up because it didn’t fit with practical survival, which has been in control. You are slowly coaxing out the one who is curious beyond measure. Don’t try to figure out what you are going to do with this part of you yet. You aren’t supposed to know everything right now. Just try to appreciate that you are becoming more of who you are meant to be. That guilt and shame that made you hide or mask this identity is falling away, and you just have to welcome in the newness. It’s not going to make sense, and there might be parts of you that feel sad because you’re used to being one way, but you can see there’s no going back. So, just let yourself say goodbye to the past now. Let it go. And be prepared, with all this awareness around YOU, there may be some extreme sensitivity. Give yourself lots of ME time, with a focus on the solar plexus chakra. Eat healthy. Put emphasis on your core in your yoga practice. And spend more time in the sun! Allow lots of sunrays to heal and cleanse you! PS, also during this in between time, please try not to make any major decisions.
Final Thought: “All Changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.” – Anatole France
GEMINI (May 21- June 20)
Influenced by PAGE OF PENTACLES
Music: Metroma – The Sei, A-Flat – Black Violin
Oh, Gemini! There is something new and beautiful entering your world now. This new idea, new person, or new belief is going to teach you more about yourself than anything you’ve been met with in your lifetime. You’re becoming a new student of life. You may even be startled by what is happening and second-guess yourself. Follow every instinct, every interest and every part of you that wants to understand. Go figure it out. Find out what it means. Look into your heart. Look into books. Ask questions. Talk to others. Sit under the stars and ponder. Your Gemini mind is going to love this invitation to explore. Many of you will be helping the rest of us with what you come away with during this time. This newness is going to help you release some anger or unfairness from your past, a hurt or pain you’ve held onto. You can now finally let it go as you dive deeper. Watch for synchronicities showing you the way and the release. There is an element to space, to NASA, to the galaxy that plays into your discovering.
Final Thought: “Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.” – Buddha
CANCER (June 21 – July 22)
Influenced by KING OF SWORDS
Music: Everything I Am Is Yours – Villagers, I Need My Girl – The National, The Longest Time – Billy Joel
Oh, Cancer, in your mind you are strong. You are strong in your knowing and understanding and intellectual musing. But July is about letting your emotions catch up to you. So, wait for it. They are coming. They are breaking through some heavy-duty walls that your mind has worked hard to protect you with. Rumi says, “Lose your head. Not a single thread that has a head can go through the eye of the needle.” So, go dance. You are on the edge waiting for the next frame to start. A feminine perspective is needed now. Call your girlfriends; call upon your feminine side. She is patient. She is loving and compassionate. This is what your emotional body needs now. You don’t need words; you need hugs. Less writing and more swimming. Less reading, more trees. Less planning, more animals. Less technology, more cooking. (You get it.) But if you forget and try to start making lists and planning for the future, go call your favorite person in the world.
Final Thought: “Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness, and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.” – Og Mandino
LEO (July 23 – Aug 22)
Influenced by ACE OF CUPS
Music: Black Like Me – Mickey Guyton, You’re All I Need to Get By – Take 2 – Aretha Franklin
Your body is sacred and worth your attention. And the message for you this month is to give it more rest and attention. You may have had symptoms, headaches, pains, high-temperatures. I’m not saying don’t get tested for COVID. But I will say, a lot of you are just giving birth to more spirit than you’ve ever held before. You are growing, and your body is catching up to you. So, if you haven’t been able to figure out what’s going on with your body and can’t—well, just listen to your intuition and give it some extra nurturing now. It will all be worth it, and the time is coming for you to feel this big shift to the newer and improved you! So, as this greater spirit is manifesting in you, what can you do to take care of the vessel that holds it? Look at what you are putting in your body, and how you are treating it! Focus on making some yummy nutritious meals, lay off the alcohol and drugs for a bit, and most importantly and easily, give it loving attention! No fault for not being perfect during this time of shift!
Final Thought: “Guard well your spare moments. They are like uncut diamonds. Discard them and their value will never be known. Improve them and they will become the brightest gems in a useful life.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
VIRGO (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Influenced by SEVEN OF CUPS
Music: Worship – Lizzo, Black Dog – Arlo Parks, Love Will Tear Us Apart – Nerina Pallot
OK Virgo, we all know how your mind works, and how you can easily figure it all out. But this is not the time for that. You are NOT TO CHOOSE YET. Or perhaps you are only choosing a part and not the whole. There is something big and new coming into your life, but I want you to hesitate. I want you to explore all your options. I want you to really consider before jumping in. You are shining brighter and becoming more of the goddess/god that you know you are. So, if you are aware of that, then you know that you don’t need to take anything less than what you deserve. If you are having a hard time in your relationships, I share the same sentiment: Don’t choose yet. Don’t tear apart the whole, but perhaps tear into a part that needs to be exposed. This is all about you stepping into the stronger, better version of yourself!
Final Thought: “These are the days that must happen to you.” – Walt Whitman
LIBRA (Sept 23 – Oct 22)
Influenced by ACE OF WANDS
Music: Solid Ground – Michael Kiwanuka, Delicate – Damien Rice
Libra, it feels to me like you’re starting something, a new creative endeavor. But somehow, it’s like you’re starting something too soon. But you are meant to start it too soon. Let things be confusing and a bit outlandish and chaotic. The timing is off, but who cares? Do it anyway. You don’t feel ready? Well tough sh*t. When do we every really feel fully ready? This is all part of your initiation, taking you deeper into your life purpose. Let things dissemble. Be defiant and determined. Follow the excitement through the messiness. You’ll know what I mean because you almost won’t be able to stop yourself, unless you let fear grip onto you and hold you back… But you won’t. Just don’t. Because you’ve been forewarned. And if you keep feeling ideas bubble up, but you don’t yet know how they all fit together, write them down. It will all come together and make sense. And you are going to be quite pleasantly surprised at how it all fits together in the end! Amen!
Final Thought: “Do you remember the things you were worrying about a year ago? How did they work out? Did you waste a lot of fruitless energy on account of most of them? Didn’t most of them turn out all right after all?” – Dale Carnegie
SCORPIO (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
Influenced by THE TOWER
Music: Song For You – Alexi Murdoch, BLACK PARADE – Beyoncé, bad blood – Joy Oladokun
This is going to sound confusing, but I think it’s meant to. Scorp, you are going to be at war with yourself, but only with yourself. So, maybe if I tell you it’s going to be confusing and conflicting, then you’ll at least come to war with a jester costume and entertainment rather than guns and fists. You’ve been hiding from your pain, Scorpio, and this month we aren’t going to let you hide anymore. It’s time to give up what you have planned, believed or decided in your mind. Your heart knows what holds meaning for you. This means it may have to flip some things around on you. This means the world may not “get you.” This means your family and friends might not agree with you. This means your mind might fight you on where your heart is steering you. Let things go the way they will, and good fortune will follow.
Final Thought: “Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at this moment.” – Eckhart Tolle
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 – Dec 19)
Influenced by THE HERMIT
Music: Sons and Daughters – Allman Brown & Liz Lawrence, Dogwood Blossom – Fionn Regan, Windows Are Rolled Down – Amos Lee
Sagittarius! You know what you want for your future. You know yourself more than most of us know ourselves. So, this month is about knowing those two things and then trusting the process. Two things to hold onto: You know what you want, and you know yourself. Stop trying to short circuit things. Accept the gloom. Accept the bliss. You have important work to do on this planet, and for some reason, the work feels harder this month—that is, if you strive for it. Instead, how about just trusting? Can you work on inner peace and trust in July? How about going for some great country drives? Spending extra time with the kids and the animals? Do the things that remind you of the ways you know yourself.
Final Thought: “The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” – Marcel Proust
CAPRICORN (Dec 20 – Jan 19)
Influenced by THE SUN
Music: Baby Can I Hold You – Tracy Chapman, Highs & Lows – Emeli Sandé, In Your Hands – Nick Mulvey
Cappy! Wowzer—your life is about to take a ginormous leap. Your sense of self and divine identity is about to overwhelm every sense of your being. Your job this month is to honor your worthiness! YOU ARE WORTHY! Embrace your worthiness. No more suffering in silence. Speak highly of yourself. Honor your commitments. Honor your relationships. Let them mirror back to you of how EXTRAORDINARY you are. This is the thing, this is your choice, and it’s time for you to choose. Let yourself shine so bright that you won’t even have to consider it; you will be chosen. I am overwhelmed by emotion writing this for you. There is a choir of beautiful angel-children singing your name… And actually, could one of them be for you? Ha—there is some baby energy here, too!
Final Thought: “Never neglect the little things. Never skimp on that extra effort, that additional few minutes, that soft word of praise or thanks, that delivery of the very best that you can do. It does not matter what others think; it is of prime importance, however, what you think about you. You can never do your best, which should always be your trademark, if you are cutting corners and shirking responsibilities. You are special. Act it. Never neglect the little things.” – Og Mandino
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Influenced by JUDGEMENT
Music: Yeha-Noha (Wishes Of Happiness And Prosperity) – Buffalo Bump Mix / Edit – Sacred Spirit, Marc Auerbach, Steve Travell, For BUMP Dear Diary – The Moody Blues
Aquarius, the universe wants something to happen for you. But do you? That is the question this month. Can you drop the doubts? Can you stop pretending like it can’t happen now? COVID, blah blah blah. Economy, blah blah blah. Enough. Or maybe you’ve been unintentionally blocking. Either way, this month is about the power of your manifestation. It is almost time. So, get your heart and mind working together to call it in. You are in hyper manifesting mode. Use this power wisely! And while you are manifesting, accept a little help from your friends. Let yourself receive.
Final Thought: “A cheerful, intelligent face is the end of culture, and success enough. For it indicates the purpose of nature and wisdom attained.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
PISCES (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Influenced by KNIGHT OF SWORDS
Music: Slow Burn – Kacey Musgraves, Song 33 – Noname
Don’t be afraid of things because they seem too easy to do. Pisces, I get the feeling you’ve been making things way too complicated for yourself. You are finally seeing how easy it can all be, and now you can see what you need to do in order to very easily allow in what you want in life. Oh, don’t worry; you have some angels coming to lead you. And by angels, I mean new friends, coworkers, organizers, i.e. like-minded souls coming into your life to help guide you, but also to be part of a greater cause. Pisces, you know your work here on earth is about more than just you. Let yourself open up to the people coming into your life now. They will probably be life long relationships and are going to raise your vibration in a way you’ve never felt before. If this means letting go of some of the past, then so be it. Your life is becoming so much grander and yet so much simpler. I’ll also add, please share your gifts in causes, activism and charities that tug at your heart. Your gifts are so needed now and will bring more back to you than you can imagine.
Final thought: “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you’ve imagined. As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler.” – Henry David Thoreau
