I don’t know about you all, but I need an animal break. There is a great website to get the latest in live cam videos.  Many of them are animals.  Also, zoos and aquariums have live cams too.  My favorite is the Jellyfish-cam at Monterey Bay Aquarium  . They also have live videos in their aviary, coral reef, kelp forest, moon jellies, penguin, and shark exhibits and two open sea cams. So, this week I attached to each sign a baby animal (who doesn’t need more cuteness) and website to visit, but I suggest visiting them all.

These websites are great to use for animal observations for parents’ home schooling right now. You can do wildlife nature drawings while they are watching the animal’s behavior for 20 minutes.  Then they can write down their observations on what they saw.   Remember you may not see the animal at that time. And it’s not baby season, so no little cuties.  But it’s an exercise of stillness, maybe something we all need to learn.  By slowing down we become more in sync with nature and see that in 20 minutes maybe nothing needs to happen.

 

P.S. Remember signs with an * it a big week for you.  Aries this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year.  And Libra 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,

Aries

Queen of Wands – The energy of courage has your back this week.  Your environment needs your fierce take-charge energy right now.  Do not doubt yourself or worth to others at this time.  However, watch that you let people have their independent thoughts.  This will stop them and you feeling overbearing.  As I once heard someone say, don’t push me but you can lead me.  San Diego Zoo Tigers

 

Taurus

*The Beyond – Taurus out of all the signs you have had to deal with a lot of energy coming at you.  The past weeks have triggered your self-doubt and insecurities.  But also guided you to self and universal compassion.  And last week embodied the energies of change and transitions asking you take time to, figuratively and/or literally, weed and plant anew.  You are the sign that grounds the world and represents the more maternal part of nature. In some ways your sign is feeling this pandemic the most, because as the first earth sign you are feeling the tremors of change in our collective deeper ground. This week the Beyond has shown up calling upon you to believe and seek higher meaning from your higher power. If you can find ways to connect with your spiritual plane, then you plow the way for others to find it too.  Remember this isn’t about doing others work this is about doing yours.  Lead by example.  Puppies Warrior Canine connection

 

 

Gemini

Four of Wands – The energy this week is the celebration of the small things.  The little things that bring community and harmony into your life.  Host a virtual beverage party with a few friends. Hang with your pet in your favorite spot in your abode.  Talk to your indoor plants.  Map the sun as it goes through your house and make sure you have a sunny spot you can hang in.  These little things are what balances you more than then big events and changes.    California Academy of Science Farallon Islands

 

 

Cancer

*Tower – You would think that you all would love all this home time.  But you are also feeling the chaos like energy of the worldwide change that is happening.  The best way for you deal with this is first realize you have no control over these big outside forces of change.  And second do what you can within the breadth of your crabby claws to make ease in your small sphere. There is an awakening happening, dig in and allow it to wash over you like a wave.  Manatees

 

Leo

*High Priestess – This is a week to heed and hone your inner voice.  Your intuition and subconscious are working overtime.  However, this is a land of metaphoric formations.  Look for the hidden truths, the synchronicities and cycles.  By sifting through the inner planes, you will see a clearer path in the outer one.   National Zoo Lion

 

 

Virgo

Four of Pentacles – The energy this week is about conservation.  Let go of anything that feels in excess, unused or no longer working.  Take this time to declutter your space, time and mind.  This is about using your resources carefully.  Energy goes where the focus goes.  This week will help you focus it in more constructive places.  Houston Zoo Gorilla

 

 

Libra

Knight of Wands – This week is filled with antsy energy.  The best way to work with this is to get active and creative.  Sing at the top of your lungs, dance while vacuuming, go through old magazines and collage.  This action does not need a goal it just needs release.  River Otters

 

 

Scorpio

Five of Cups – Last week you were in the mists and now the fog has cleared.  Acceptance and forgiveness are the keys to moving on.  Do not let pessimism or regret come into play.  Find the positives, give them your energy and leave the negatives behind.  Memphis Zoo Hippo

 

 

Sagittarius

*Hermit – Another week of self-discovery is in store for you.  Get some alone time to do some much needed soul searching.  The challenge with this card is that you can hermitize but not isolate yourself.  Being the hermit gains you enough space from civilization to get a deeper and broader perspective on your life and where it is going.  By the end of this week answer the questions:  Am I ready for another year of this life? Or is it time to start to envision the changes I need to make to gain the life I want?   San Diego Koala

 

Capricorn

*Lovers – Relationships and creation are key components to focus on this week.  And the heart of this investigation lies within the notions of contentment and choice respectively.  Put energy into relationships that bring serenity and envisage the implementation of creation is based in choosing.  Then see how these applications of serenity and choice feels in the broader picture.  Think and do more like an abstract painting.  Look how the colors and brush strokes feel next to each other.  It is less about technique and more about emotional experimental mixing/creating.   The challenge is you won’t know the painting is done until it is.    Goats live cam

 

 

Aquarius

Page of Wands – Last week, the task was finding moments of silence, synchronicities and moon beams to guide you to opportunities and solutions that were hidden in the light of day.  Luckily you get another week of discovery and exploration.  The challenge is how to be a free spirit when the world is “stay in place.”  A hint, follow your passions and your imagination.  British Columbia Tiny kittens

 

 

Pisces

Four of Cups – To make it through this week you need to find time and space to mediate.  Now the challenge is when you try stopping your mind you end up going down rabbit holes of questions.  Which end up with you withdrawing into self-loathing or other negative thought patterns.  So, the key is working on the skills of contemplation.    The definition of contemplation is the action of looking thoughtfully at something for a long time. So, when you are thinking, no questions, judgements, or what ifs, just utilize only certainties and the action of acceptance of what is.  Georgia Aquarium Reef
