Tarot and Art Forecast for Week of July 31, 2022

July 31, 2022 Nina

The artist this week is Mother Gaia. There are over 365 species of hummingbirds. They only live in the Americas and range from Alaska to Chile. Most species live in Central and South America. A group of hummingbirds is called a charm; however, they are very anti-social except when mating. The smallest is the Bee Hummingbird which lives in Cuba (see Cancerian below) and weighs about the same as ¼ teaspoon of sugar (1.9grams). They beat their wings between 10 to 80 times per second which produces the hum sound. The fastest flyer is the Anna’s Hummingbird at 61 mph (see Capricorn below). It is also the only species that does not migrate in North America.

Hummingbirds are the only vertebrate that can hover, fly backwards and upside down. Hummingbirds have the largest brain to body ration than any other bird, allowing them to have extraordinary memories. They see like bees into the UV spectrum of light, which are the colors that flowers present to show where the nectar is. They eat while awake about every 10 minutes. So, they not only sip the nectar of 1,000-2,000 flowers a day, but they also eat small insect like gnats and aphids.

See Aries for photo: This bird is not albino (can’t produce melanin) but is a rarer hummingbird that has leucism (produce melanin hence black eyes, feet, and some spots on feathers but can’t deposit other colors in their feathers).

Your pondering for the week: Hummingbirds are one of my messengers from the universe. What’s one of your messenger animals?

Solar System Highlights

The Moon starts in Virgo – great for cleaning and reducing clutter in your life. Then it moves into Libra on the 2^nd – relationships are highlighted. Then Scorpio on the Thursday centering around passion. By the weekend it is in Sagittarius – awesome for adventuring.

Mercury (communication and knowledge) is in Leo until the 4^th – great for PR but watch that you are listening as much as you are sharing. Then moves into Virgo a great time for sharing, helpful advice and hashing out solutions. Venus (beauty and harmony) is in Cancer – beautify your home, spend time with loved ones and focus on self-care. Mars (action) is in Taurus, so action steps are at a saner, slower, and steadier pace. Jupiter is in Aries until October 28^th. It influences action and expansion over the summer months. And lastly, Saturn remains in Aquarius for all of 2022 – so innovating and upping your game is its focus.

P.S. Signs with an * it is a big week for you. Leo this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year. And Aquarius it is your halfway mark for your birth year, so if you need a Planetary Reading for a check-in, now is the time.

May light be on you, around you, and within you,

Nina

Aries

*Moon – This period has been treating you a bit like a yo-yo. Last two weeks were stops and starts and this week the muses advise to pull back in again. The Muse of the Subconscious is asking you to go back to your dreams and do some shadow work. There is something blocking your forward path and your dreams can help unravel it. For this week write a question down each night and see what answers or clues you find by morning.

Taurus

Display pattern -Wine throated hummingbird Knut Eiserman

Five of Swords – The Muse of Ego is here this week to help you navigate your emotions around dealing with other people’s egos. You may be right in an assortment of scenarios this week but people around you are not ready or willing to heed your warnings or advise. This is a week to pick your battles wisely and make sure your ego isn’t driving the conversation.

Gemini

Page of Cups – The Muse of Play is here to help you loosen up. You are too much in your head and need to let your intuitive creativity out to play. The challenge with this energy is to make sure your play is not goal oriented. This headspace is more about curiosity, discovery, and wonder.

Cancerian

King of Wands – The Muse of Superpowers wants you to find yours or if known then hone. She asks you what are your top three superpowers? Known or not they will be called upon this week. The beauty of that is this week’s challenges are not a struggle. You have “the power”. (Yes, that is a He-Man reference)

Leo

Most colorful – Rufous Hummingbird Scott Bechtel

*Death – Your second energy to work with this year is the Muse of Organic Change. This Muse advises you to focus on areas that you want to change in your life. Then she asks two questions: 1) What holds you back or that you need to get rid of, so you can have more physical resources to put towards new growth? 2) What seeds would you like to plant for coming year? The challenge with the later is to properly plant your seeds in groups that work together. And planting seasonally so that they occur at the correct time. Start this month planning for each season. Remember this organic change is a yearlong process, so don’t try to push things faster than what can naturally happen.

Virgo

Three of Swords – The Muse of Heartbreak is here to help you make an emotional breakthrough. She does not come to herald sorrow but comes to heal deep wounds. The challenge is when you are emotional triggered to not relive the trauma but see it as a wound that still needs tending to. Self-care, self-parenting, and self-compassion are your tools this week.

Libra

Four of Cups – Last week the Muse of Clean Slates and New Adventure wanted you to play around with a new avenue, study, or project – to be out in the world. This week the Muse of Introspection has you change your focus from outward to inward. This is a great week to rework, experiment, and ponder. The challenge with this muse is she also requires for you to spend a fourth of your time in the world, for it has some of the solutions and information you will need. So, divvy your time with ¾ inward and ¼ outward activities.

Scorpio

Hummingbirds — Largest hummingbird Patagona gigas

*Tower – The Muse of Revelation would like you to focus on the cracks in your foundations. What needs to be retrofitted to endure the stress and strain of your life? Do you need to eat better? Sleep more? Or is it more challenge like letting go of someone or a job that is slowly sucking your life-energy? Now is time for a change before outer circumstances do it for you.

Sagittarius

Two of Coins – The Muse of Juggling comes when you need to either practice balancing or when you are focusing on too much. This muse advises breaking down your tasks and doing them one or two at a time. This is not a week to multi-task, for you will most likely drop the ball or not carry out the task at hand with your typical diligence.

Capricorn

*Devil– The Muse of Maybe tried to help with the unpredictable energy of last week. She asked you to be more flexible in your planning. This week the Muse of Distraction requires the opposite skill set. This week you need to focus and stick with plans unless your intuition tells you to run for the hills. Think of this energy like bees. One bee you can ignore or dodge and keep working, but a swarm you need to go back inside.

Aquarius

Two of Cups – The Muse of Love comes when you need to bond with a loved one. The task is to knowing you and your partner/pet/chosen family’s love language. They are words of affirmation, acts of service, receiving gifts and physical touch. Find out what makes you all tick and then take action.

Pisces

*Emperor – The Muse of Building is here to help you expand your empire. She wants you to take action steps that will solidify your dreams and aspirations. This can look as simple as working on a planned project, crossing off things on your to-do lists, or doing improvements to your home. Or as complex as expanding your business or skill sets, investing in your future with property or in the stock market.

Tarot and Art Forecast for Week of July 24, 2022

July 24, 2022 Nina

This week’s artist is Bridget McCrum. Since childhood she was fascinated with ancient remains and natural stone landscapes, so she began painting her surroundings. Then by her forties she turned to sculpting it in stone. Her studies are often but not always abstract interpretations of the glacial movement of geography in contrast to the rapid flight of birds. In her words: “The landscape around my two homes has inevitably worked itself into my mind. The gentle curves of the hills of South Devon and the stark limestone cliffs carved by wind and sea on Gozo, have all subconsciously influenced my carving. Looking down on birds circling and gliding above their prey from my home high above the Dart estuary. They make marvelously abstracted subjects and I have carved them ever since I have been here.”

Her work is a study of stillness and movement. She creates this by juxtaposing squares and rectangles that seem to effortless hold up smoothly curved abstract avian forms. By working in stone and simplifying the line of birds in flight, McCrum enhances the elegant evolution of birds and their prowess in the air. This contrast also exemplifies the intersection of how birds use topography to enhance their flight ie: their use of thermals or dynamic soaring. This is where a bird catches a thermal to ride upward. Once they reach these higher altitudes where the wind moves faster, they shift to same direction as the wind to gain speed. Then they can glide relatively fast or slow while descending by shifting their wings or the angle of their body. McCrum’s work is an exquisite example of observational study and interpretation of the beauty of nature through art.

Your pondering for the week: Explore and utilize ways that you can use your environment to soar.

Solar System Highlights

The Moon starts in Cancer this week. This energy may feel like you do not want to leave your house, but if you must then make sure you balance it with quality self-care time. By Thursday it has moved into Leo – time to shine. Then for the weekend the moon moves into Virgo – great for cleaning and reducing clutter in your life. Mercury is in Leo – great for PR but watch that you are listening as much as you are sharing. Venus (beauty and harmony) is in Cancer – beautify your home, spend time with loved ones and focus on self-care. Mars (action) is in Taurus, so action steps are at a saner, slower, and steadier pace. Jupiter is in Aries until October 28^th. It influences action and expansion over the summer months. And lastly, Saturn remains in Aquarius for all of 2022 – so innovating and upping your game is its focus.

May light be on you, around you, and within you,

Nina

Aries

*Emperor – Hopefully last week you aligned you actions with your inner compass, because this week is all action. The Muse of Building is here to get any project you focus on moving if you have a well-thought-out plan. So, think like a city-planner this week. Have you thought about who you serve and are you building a self-propelling structure to maintain it? The challenge with this energy is not to build just to build, or act just to act but to thoughtfully create.

Taurus

Six of Coins – The Muse of Mini-Karma arrives when karma is about to re-balance. So, as you go about your daily life this muse reminds you that being nice begats positive benefits. However, this is also true for being unkind which will producing negatives. The other challenge with this energy is that it usually doesn’t reciprocate in a direct line. So, watch your p’s and q’s and be mindful of possible side swipes or unexpected gifts.

Gemini

Eight of Coins – Last week was about paying attention to downloads from your subconscious. This week is about refining your conscious and physical skillsets. The Muse of Mastery comes when your superpowers and expert skills are needed, so share your amazingness this week.

Cancerian

Five of Wands – This Muse of Drama comes when you need to sharpen your confidence on when to fight and when to walk away. You can engage in rivalry but if you do you cannot play victim. You have chosen to play the game. However, this muse reminds you that you can also just not participate and walk away. The choice is really yours.

Leo

Nine of Swords – Your first Muse to work with this birth year is the Muse of Overthinking. This year you are going to be challenged by getting out of your mind and acting on what you can. Now this Muse does give you some rules to live by for this year. 1) Worry only about what you actually can control in the present. 2) Do not use the phrase or concept of: would have, should have, and could have. And 3) You need to prioritize good sleeping habits.

Virgo

Two of Coins – The Muse of Balance comes when you are trying to do too much. She advises to do only one to two things at a time. This is not a week for multi-tasking.

Libra

*Fool – The Muse of Clean Slates and New Adventure has come to have you play around with a new avenue, study, or project. This, like last week, is a great period to start a project, plant a garden or continue a new venture. The challenge with this energy is she asks you to come at anything you do with fresh eyes or playfulness. If you are having trouble doing this, she suggests doing this exercise: When you go somewhere familiar take a new route or venture out without a purpose and see where you land. These activities will exercise your adventurous side.

Scorpio

Seven of Cups – The Muse of Dreams is here wanting you to play with your imagination. Find time to daydream. Play scenarios in your head where everything works out perfectly. The challenge is identifying these dream signs in your reality. If you don’t see the beginnings of this path, then it is time to dream a new scheme.

Sagittarius

Page of Coins – The Muse of Critical Thinking has come to guide your thoughts this week. Critical thinking is the analysis of available facts, evidence, observations, and arguments to form a judgement. However, the challenge is when the subject is complex and therefore several different definitions or arguments can exist. So, this week keep to the facts and put the speculation aside, and if you can not come to a verdict with what you know, wait for more evidence.

Capricorn

*Wheel– The Muse of Maybe comes when the energy for the week is unpredictable. Her advice is to be careful not to over-plan or tightly schedule this week. The more flexible you can be the more apt you will be to navigate the hits and misses of the week, and possibly find treasures on paths not planned.

Aquarius

*Magician – The Muse of Manifestation comes to help you conjure up whatever you like. Even though you have all the tools you need to do as you wish, the challenge is really thinking through the consequences of what you are bringing forth. Does it actually coincide with your purpose or plan?

Pisces

Ace of Cups – The Muse of Emotional Beginnings is here to make sure that your heart plane is nourished before you embark on this new phase of emotional growth. She reminds you that it is more beneficial and sustainable if you can fill your emotional cup then to rely on ours doing it for you. Self-Love first, fishy frien

Tarot and Art Forecast for Week of July 17, 2022

July 17, 2022 Nina

The artist this week is Bridget Riley @bridget_riley. She is one of the most well-known op artists. Op art is “a form of abstract art that gives the illusion of movement by the precise use of pattern and color, or in which conflicting patterns emerge and overlap.” Op art gives us an understanding of the science behind how we see and what can manipulate our sight. Riley has made this study a lifelong career. She started in the 60’s just examining line and shape in black and white. She moved to shades of gray and then into the interaction of all the colors or how we perceive these interactions. Her work is a master class in the science of human sight and color theory.

Retrospectives of an artist often shows us how that artist thinks and grows within the period shown. We get to see not just a snapshot of their view but a picture album of their visual ponderings. I believe this viewpoint is vital in many artists work but especially with Riley’s. You might have seen her pieces individually and just think they all look the same, repetitious, or a great visual trick. But when they are shown in series you see her almost scientific process of dissecting the concept of color and human visual perception. It goes from interesting concept to an astute and yet playful study. This is the last week to see a retrospective of her work at the Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, Conn. She sums up her work in NYTimes article “It’s very important to establish a dialogue with your own work. My eyesight, my understanding, changes all the time. No two days are alike. I think all painters have experienced that — you can look at something as though you’ve never seen it before.”

Your pondering for the week: Allow lifelong learning into your process. Look at each day with fresh eyes.

Solar System Highlights

The Moon starts in action-oriented Aries giving a great start week with tons of energy. Then on Wednesday it moves into Taurus so you have the stamina to finish up what you started this week. For the weekend the moon moves into Gemini – great for communication and gathering intel. Mercury moves into Leo great for PR but watch that you are listening as much as you are sharing. Venus (beauty and harmony) is in Leo a great time to revamp your style. Mars (action) is in Taurus, so action steps are at a saner, slower, and steadier pace. Jupiter is in Aries until October 28^th. It influences action and expansion over the summer months. And lastly, Saturn remains in Aquarius for all of 2022 – so innovating and upping your game is its focus.

May light be on you, around you, and within you,

Nina

Aries

*Strength – You go from the inertia of last week to finding your inner strength to push through anything you set your mind to. The challenge with this muse and therefore your actions is that your movements must be aligned with your inner compass. If you find yourself stuck, step back, check in and see if this is the path that truly aligns with heart and soul.

Taurus

Ten of Wands – So your journey for the summer has finally begun, but the challenge is you taking on too much. Drop at least three items off you list. You need to put focus on your top priorities, or you will skim on the surface of this week without truly working out what needs to be done. This week simplify and dive deep with each action.

Gemini

*Moon – The Muse of the Subconscious is downloading information to you. Keep pen and paper by your bed to write down what you need to decipher from your dreams. Also, during waking hours information is available if you tune into feelings but make sure they have a base in reality, for this muse likes to play in the shadows.

Cancerian

Six of Coins – This is your final energy for your birth year, but let’s review the others. You got the Muse of Abundance, twice, asking you to savor the family you have created, the friends you have, and your material successes. Which led to Muse of Healing and Hope giving you this year to rest, gather your strength and make wishes for the future. Then the Muse of Constructs asking you refine or create new structures that support your well-being. And lastly the Muse of mini-Karma comes to work with Abundance to return three-fold all the positive you have put out in the world. But this Muse also holds a challenge that negative can also begat negative. So, she reminds you that your motto this year is Love over Hate.

Leo

Four of Wands – The Muse that helps you cross the bridge from last year to this birth year is the Muse of Stability and what you consider “home”. Her big question is does your “home” structure support you? So, she would like you to look around, re-stock or re-work your space to make it the inner and outer space you can grow in for the coming year.

Virgo

Ten of Swords – This week comes with aspects of drama making. The Muse of Theater helps you through the rough spots by reminding you that the world is really a stage. That most of what we encounter is a façade of real life, made of social constructs that don’t ring true to your integrity. But she also reminds you these challenges are also what defines what you don’t want in your life. So, take the lesson, do not engage, and move on.

Libra

Ace of Coins – The past couple of weeks you have been in your head and now it is time to be in your body and physical plane. This week is perfect for starting projects on the physical plane. Whether that is planting in your garden or creating something in a workshop, starting a new endeavor, etc… Time for actions steps.

Scorpio

Elongated Triangles 5 1971 Bridget Riley

Ace of Swords – This week is all about what goes on in your headspace. Now is the time to collect new knowledge from the world, whether that is picking up a new book or rewiring old thought patterns. This week is perfect for innovating new thoughts into your life. Watch your self-talk.

Sagittarius

Eight of Coins – The Muse of Mastery comes when you need to hone one of your superpowers. She advises to look at your skill sets and see which ones need to be tweaked or finetuned. This muse usually heralds that you will need your superpowers in the coming weeks.

Capricorn

*Star– The Muse of Healing arrives at your doorstep when you need to have some self-compassion and time off. She asks what soothes you, bath salts, herbal teas, and a cornucopia of good food? What can you incorporate in your routines that gives not only your body some rest but also your soul?

Aquarius

Six of Wands – Ok it has been a hard bunch of weeks, months and, for some of you, years. The Muse of Jubilation has come to remind you to celebrate that you are a survivor. You have struggled but you have made it to this milestone of existence. And this week it is vital for to honor your resilience with some fun, presents and/or an activity that resonates and feeds your life-force.

Pisces

Four of Swords and Five of Wands- Ok for some of you, you will follow the Muse of Restoration. Yep, half of you need to take another week in the slow lane and recharge your batteries. Now the other half need to jump into the action with the Muse of Health Competition/Play. Time to reboot and get back into this game of life. So, for those that can’t decide, flip a coin. Heads you rest and Tails you get back into the game.

Tarot and Art Forecast for Week of July 10, 2022

July 10, 2022 Nina

The artist this week is Sophie Woodrow @sophiewoodrow. Woodrow is a ceramic artist that works in porcelain. Her figures are an amalgamation of the natural world. Sophie’s artisanship comes through the elegant equilibrium of minimalism in color, delicate intricacy in form and a context of otherworldliness. If spirit guides had guises, then many of them would look like her figurines.

You may have fallen in love with her work, like I did. But much like connecting to spirit guides, to obtain Woodrow’s work is a combination of mystery, devotion, and a possible pilgrimage. In my research to find out about her there are few avenues: a couple of well-placed articles, a website error and even finding what gallery she is showing in right now is an enigma (a hint in her Insta comments, Narbeth Pembrokeshire, Wales).

However, this research reminded me of the spiritual journey that resonates for both Art and Spirituality. The purpose of this quest is rarely to find answers, it is the process of pondering life and our place within in it. As a viewer/audience of art or even the artist themselves, we need to be careful of our ego demanding that the artist make their art easily accessible or that spirituality is obtain with some sage. In this age of Instant-cart and Amazon, we need to be reminded that experiencing Art, Nature and Spirit is a quest and should be more like a golden egg hunt for awe then a click of fleeting satisfaction.

Your pondering for the week: How can you bring more mystery, moments and meaning in your journey?

Solar System Highlights

The Moon starts in Sagittarius so it may be hard to settle into your work week, but by Tuesday you get into the groove with the Moon in Capricorn’s help. On Thursday it moves into Aquarius great for innovation and ideas. Then it’s in Pisces giving us a dreamy weekend. Mercury is in Cancerian waters great for reconnecting with whomever is your mother figure and verbally supporting the woman in your life. Venus (beauty and harmony) is in Gemini (communication and knowledge). Ladies tell your stories. Mars (action) is in Taurus, so action steps are at a saner, slower, and steadier pace. Jupiter is in Aries until October 28^th. It influences action and expansion over the summer months. And lastly, Saturn remains in Aquarius for all of 2022 – so innovating and upping your game is its focus.

P.S. Signs with an * it is a big week for you. Cancer this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year. And Capricorn it is your halfway mark for your birth year, so if you need a Planetary Reading for a check-in, now is the time.

May light be on you, around you, and within you,

Nina

Aries

*Hanged One – The Muse of Purpose came last week to solidify your reason for being. You have another week to ruminate this theme with the Muse of Inertia. This Muse puts blockades in your way to make you stop and think about where, what, and how of the possible forward planning action steps. She does this for two reasons. One if you need to tweak your plan or two if the timing isn’t right. So if you feel resistance, stop and look both ways before you proceed.

Taurus

*Fool – Last week the Muse of Hermitage asked you to step back from your daily life and look at your placement within your timeline and the World’s. Now the Muse of Clean Slates is adding its energy to your ponderings. She asks, what if you had a clean slate? What if you said from this point on, I am going to _____ and nothing can hold me back. What would you fill into that blank? Because now is the time to step into this new journey.

Gemini

Ten of Wands – The Muse of Obligation has come to help you prioritizes your responsibilities. This week has the potential to feel overwhelming, but this muse helps by reminding you to watch your definition of obligation. You are only responsible for your stuff and no one else’s. Time to put their responsibility back on their shoulders because you have enough to do.

Cancerian

*Hierophant – Your next Muse for your birth year is the Muse of Constructs. All this year is about refining or creating new structures that support your well-being. It is like you are molting and building your new shell. Devote this time to adopting or creating mottos to live by, environments where you thrive, and schedules that run with your natural bio-rhythms.

Leo

Eight of Coins – This is your second eight so a tiny dive into the number. Eights represent refining and releasing. Last week the Muse of Bondage asked you to let go of what is holding you back. And now the Muse of Superpowers is asking you to focus and hone the skill set you are good at. Her homework is to name three of your super-powers and refine them instead of hanging on to your kryptonite.

Virgo

Five of Cups – This week will have its ups and downs. So, the Muse of Spilled Milk is here to help you clean up and move on. The not-so-great things happening this week are not the worst things you have gone through. She reminds you that these are minor spills easily cleaned up and “You have more milk in the fridge.” So, your motto: My cup many not runneth over but it is refillable.

Libra

Three of Swords – Last week the Muse of the Subconscious provided you with insight to create more ease. Though they may take some time to decipher. Hence, the Muse of Wound-healing has stepped-up to highlight the insights that are meant to heal deep wounds. So, pay attention to emotional and thought induced landmines this week, for this muse is prompting you to work on the reactions instead of the action itself.

Scorpio

Five of Swords – This week has the potential to frustrate you. The Muse of Ego has stepped in to help you navigate these irritations. She first asks you how important is it for you to interject yourself into the situation? Then she advises unless you or the people around you will be hurt, walk away. So, pick your battles this week.

Sagittarius

Page of Wands – The Muse of Originality is asking you to indulge in the arts and/or nature. Usually, this muse shows up when you need to re-ignite your imagination. She asks you to plan something awe-inspiring to do this week: a concert, play music, watch the stars, nature walk, dance, go to a museum, or paint your own masterpiece.

Capricorn

Ace of Coins – This week is perfect for beginnings on the physical plane. Whether that is planting in your garden or creating something in a workshop, starting a new endeavor, etc.… This week has all the grow-power you need to fertilize your new seedling.

Aquarius

Nine of Swords – This week can have more downs then ups, which can send you into your head or bed. So, the Muse of Worries comes with this advice. She asks you to categorize your worries into things you can do something about, things you are not sure you can do something about and things you can’t. Then drop the last two and focus on working on the solutions for the worries that are relevant now.

Pisces

Nine of Coins – Last week the Muse of Inertia advised you to slow down, meditate and reflect more than do. This energy continues somewhat with the Muse of Contentment. This muse like you to begin moving but do it at a relaxed pace. This is not a week to commit to everything but more to metaphorically turn your life volume knob down from a 10 to a 9.

Tarot and Art Forecast for Week of July 3, 2022

July 3, 2022 Nina

The artist this week is Katherine Bradford @kathebradford. Bradford is a contemporary painter that combines story with abstraction. Her color palate is, well, very color-full. Her figures usually have no facial features but convey a story with “simple” gestures, a hand on the back, or arms crossed. There is a whimsy and a vulnerability to her work. Her painting style though seemingly childlike creates the contextual dichotomy of the human experience. With her loose style she allows our own story to the interpretation. Is the wave crashing over the people or are they enjoying the ocean? She nudges the viewer to not focus on the hyper-realism of life but the feeling of a moment.

Bradford’s work reminds me of summer. Summer has associated with it the characteristic of fun and enjoyment: pool- side antics, the beach, fireflies, warm nights… Along with these joyful details, there are sunburns, indigestion, vacation travel, mosquitos, etc… But the amazing thing about this season when we reminisce about it, we do so through an abstracted lens of pleasure that comes from the interactions of friends, family, food, and fauna. So, though the details of life are important, it’s abstraction which often allows more context and pleasure.

Your pondering for the week: What would happen if we focused on the feeling we want out of life more than the exacting details? Generalize instead of Specify.

Solar System Highlights

The Moon starts in Virgo helping us to get organized. On Tuesday it moves into Libra, so balance and relationships get highlighted. And for the weekend the Moon is in Scorpio great for enjoying your passions. Mercury moves into Cancerian waters on Wednesday. Reconnect with whomever is your mother figure and verbal support the woman in your life. Venus (beauty and harmony) is in Gemini (communication and knowledge). Interesting that the divine feminine is in the headlines. Ladies tell your stories. Mars (action) moves into Taurus on Wednesday. So, fiery action goes from confrontation and speed to a saner, slower, and steadier pace. Jupiter is in Aries until October 28^th. It influences action and expansion over the summer months. And lastly, Saturn remains in Aquarius for all of 2022 – so innovating and upping your game is its focus.

May light be on you, around you, and within you,

Nina

Aries

*High Priestess – The Muse of Purpose comes when it is time to solidify your reason for being. This week you will receive messages from the Universe to help guide you. They come in the form of synchronicities and out of the blue gifts. This Muse is asking you to step into your talents/superpowers and show the world how amazing you are.

Taurus

*Hermit – The Muse of Hermitage is asking you to step back from your daily life and look at your placement within your timeline and the World’s. This is a week to gain perspective into why you are doing things. And then tweaking how you are doing them so that you can shine your light with more ease and focus. The challenge is figuring out how you will show up when you re-enter society.

Gemini

Page of Coins – This week learning a new skill or understanding is vital for creating ease. The Muse of the Student is advising keeping your ears and mind open for insights. You may find that a plethora of teachers and mentors show up for you this week. The challenge is more listening and learning, less talking.

Cancerian

Ten of Coins – Holy Moly, the Muse of Abundance has returned for a double dip into this energy for your coming year. Another aspect of this energy is that this year is the last chapter in this cycle. This is a year to savor in all it’s delights and heal from all it’s hardships. This is the chapter where you tie up lose ends and yes you can create a twist to this ending. But remember like a good book you want to be satisfied with the conclusion as well as be excited about the sequel.

Leo

Eight of Swords – The Muse of Bondage is here just weeks before your new birth year. So Leonian now is the time to let go of what is holding you back. Is it time to simplify your life? Are you not doing something that your soul needs to do? Are you holding onto thought patterns that were put there in your youth? Find the key to your release and use it.

Virgo

Six of Coins – The Muse of Mini Karma comes when you need to watch your p’s and q’s. Yes, people will piss you off this week, but it is up to you to stop the cycle of bias, anger and possible hate. Small kindnesses are needed from you right now. The challenge is that love does win but the road to recovery is not linear or direct.

Libra

Katherine Bradford Swim Team Outer space

*Moon – The Muse of the Subconscious is trying to tell you something to create more ease. So, this week have paper and pencil by your bed for any information from dreamland.
