Your January 2016 Tarot Reading!

Your Message for January 2016

Spirit guided me to this layout with six cards in two rows. The BOTTOM row shows the prediction for the beginning, middle, and end of January 2016. The TOP row shows the challenges to this energy—what we’ll all need to process as we move through each part of the month. It zig-zags!

With this month being the beginning of a new year, a new start, it’s time to try some new types of tarot horoscopes and such. If you are reading this page, it means that this reading is for you! This is the energy that’s prevailing right now for YOU in January 2016.

Christine channeled this January 2016 reading using the Morgan-Greer tarot. It’s a shift in physical perspective from the original and created by one of the greats in tarot studies, Mary K. Greer.

Beginning of January – 10 of Cups

The possibility of Bliss. We’re all coming off of the glow of the holidays. It’s a time to continue to enjoy family and friends. If there are old friends or extended family you haven’t been in touch with, this is a good time to reach out to them. It’s also a good time to go out on the town or take active steps to find a new relationship, if you’re currently single. If you’re coupled, this is a good time to do some reflection on your strengths as a couple—what can you do to make your partner feel more appreciated and loved? Now’s the time to take action and do it.

 

 

 

CLUE for Beginning of January (Upper Left) – 3 of Cups

Clue for the Beginning of January: 3 of Cups

Clue for the Beginning of January: 3 of Cups

Romance, Community (two separate keywords). So, if you weren’t sure you should be concentrating on your emotional health and well-being and your relationships, this card is a clue to do just that. It’s a time to reach out to your community, to start making new friends if you want them. It’s a reminder that we are emotionally fed by our relationships and if there’s any way to do so, do this in person or on the phone, instead of being sucked behind the walls of the internet, social media, and texting. Know that you are valued at every age and stage of life: Maiden – Mother – Wise Woman; or Youth – Warrior – Wise One.

 

 

 

Mid-January (Lower Middle) – Page of Pentacles

Mid-January - Page of Pentacles

Mid-January – Page of Pentacles

This Page will deliver you new information about your finances, job, or creative life. Maybe you’re getting ready to gather your W-2s to do your taxes, and things will suddenly come into focus. Or you’re ready to start a new creative project. The important thing here is to review the information and then make a decision about what will be your next move. Because of Mercury being in retrograde form about the 5-25th of January, your strength will be found inwards—in yourself, your body, and trusting your gut. So, take the facts, and then ask your gut what to do. Don’t rush things if you don’t have to—for example, if you plan on making a major shift in direction, wait until the end of the month.

 

 

CLUE for Mid-January (Upper Middle) – 2 of Swords

Mid-January - Page of Pentacles

CLUE for Mid-January – 2 of Swords

Ah, the 2 of Swords. This card shows up for Spirit to let us know that we are our own worst enemy – but we’re actually FREE. The woman with the swords is blindfolded, but she’s unbound. She’s chosen to appear bound and blind to herself–and to those around her. We get to choose to put the swords down, untie the blindfold, and go on to something new.

With Mercury in retrograde mid-January, be kind to yourself. Don’t overthink things in any part of your life. Let your guard down. It’s time to take a big, deep, breath all the way down to your belly, hold it for 5 seconds, and slowly let it go. Have all of those messy emotions and you’ll be left with a new perspective and new outlook!

 

 

End of January (Lower Right) – 7 of Pentacles

End of January - 7 of Pentacles

End of January – 7 of Pentacles

January’s cards are all leading to this point! First, we’re basking in post-holiday bliss; then we get new information about upcoming opportunities; and finally, we start seeing some positive payout! The 7 of Pentacles for 2016 is saying that we’ve paid our dues for that thing we want. It could be a response to your college applications, or an offer of a new job, or that your health is improving because of your New Year’s resolution to go on the DASH diet for your heart.

Wherever you’ve been putting your effort—you’ll start to reap successes. It might be big, or it might just be a kernel of things to come—it really depends on where you started back in 2015. But know that more good things are coming. After Mercury Retrograde ends, that last week of January will feel like dam has burst—and that hope is coming!

CLUE for End of January (Upper Right) – Page of Cups

CLUE for the End of January - Page of Cups

CLUE for the End of January – Page of Cups

Again, Spirit sends us the Page when we’re ready to move to a new level. We already have a Page for mid-January and here’s our second Page for the end of the month. The Page of Cups says we’ll all be at a new level of emotion and spirituality. It may feel a bit strange. That’s okay. We will be used to these changes by March or April.

Knowing what you want out of your relationships is key. What makes a good friend to you? What qualities are needed for your team to get along at work? What behaviors are acceptable and unacceptable in those around you? Your heart is overflowing, and it will be time to sift through this information. The people around you will tell you who they are through their actions and emotions. LISTEN to them.

It’s time to look at the payout you’re seeing with 7 of Pentacles and think—who do I want with me to enjoy this bounty? Who do I want with me for this new phase of life? Make sure your Tribe is one of the heart.

If you’re looking for a new relationship, you need to persevere and act on the dating information that is coming your way. (You also need to make a top 10 list of positive attributes for your partner and a list of 3 deal breakers and have it in place by January 23rd.)

If you’re partnered, make sure your partner knows that you love them. Wear your heart on your sleeve, and tell them how you feel – don’t make them have to ask, or guess. If you’re the silent type, this is a good time for one of those grand gestures—have fun!

January Overview

You are in for a wild and fun ride in January 2016. Opportunities abound. While many people get caught up in the negative parts of Mercury Retrograde (January 5-25) it is a good time for self-reflection and getting in touch with your feelings. It’s a time to re-examine your beliefs and discard the beliefs you hold that you don’t want in your life anymore. It’s a good time to get rid of negativity and self-defeating beliefs, too.

You really could not ask for a better outcome this January—Spirit says that you’re deserving of a joyous personal life and that they want to give you those things you’ve been working and wishing and waiting for. So go out and get it!

Happy 2016, and may every joy come to you this year!

Bright Blessings, Christine

Lady Mary Queen of Angels – Sun Sign Horoscopes for December!

December is a time for tradition. While we all are on our own spiritual journeys, we are making the shift through the darkest part of the year, in order to come out on the other side—in the light. The energy of this being a Master Number 11 month compounds all of the buzzy, eddying energy available. Harness it and put it to good use during your celebrations.

What are your holiday traditions? How will you usher in the light after Winter Solstice/Yule? Sending a special birthday wish to my Sagittarius and Capricorn friends. Know that you are loved – and that we need to have a huge Christmas in July party in 2016. (Being 6 months younger wouldn’t hurt, either! My Mother brought me home in an Xmas stocking, so I’ve seen every “Merry Birthday” card on the market between my own birthday and those of half of my grandparents. We all had Christmas week birthdays, so I still miss celebrating with them.)

December 2015 Horoscopes

This month’s horoscopes were channeled using Doreen Virtue’s Mary, Queen of Angels oracle deck. While it’s a fun deck to use for the holiday season, you don’t have to celebrate Christmas to enjoy Mary’s insights—she’s a representation of the great Earth Mother and can also be seen as Kuan Yin, or the female version of the Buddha, and even Gaia, goddess of the Earth.

Many of the keywords for Mary’s cards have to do with our attitudes and how to remove energy blockages in order to bring in what’s for our best and highest good.

December’s Message: BLESSINGS

Blessings are coming in for December.

Blessings are coming in for December.

As we being to embrace the holiday season, take time each evening to write down a good thing that happened during the day as well as something you are looking forward to during the month of December. If you keep this little “gratitude” journal of your blessings, you will notice how quickly it snowballs. You’ll be able to take stock of beautiful moments each day, even if things become harried or busy.

Remember that you, your family and friends, your pets, and your loved ones are all blessed. We have all been brought together for our divine purposes, and you, like the angels, do contribute to making the world a better place each day. Thank you for being a part of the blessings on this earth during this holiday season.

 

December Sun Signs

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21) ~ Boundaries

Boundaries card on blue background.

Boundaries will help you this December.

Know that you are supported by the angels, Sagittarius, as you go about your way this December. Ask them for any help or assistance you need, whether it is large or small. Flex your angel muscles! As you do, also remember that you deserve to have your boundaries respected. Some of you will need help in setting the boundaries, while others of you need to take a little time to think about situations that could arise this month, so that you can consciously choose your boundaries. You don’t want to learn about your boundaries by having others trample over them.

Follow this edict from the angels, and even if you don’t need them, ask them along for the ride. You deserve to feel content, secure, respected, and loved for this month, and always.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) ~ Optimism

Optimism card on blue background.

Capricorn, it’s time to be optimistic in December!

It’s time to set up some Great Expectations, Capricorn! Open your heart a little more, and let some of those secret wishes and wants come out to play. Expect that your needs will be met, your wishes fulfilled – if you only put in the strength to as k for what you want, or to take that road not taken to get what you need. Maybe it’s that you finally want to go ice-skating outside this December, whether it’s at Rockefeller Square under the big glowing tree, or on the balcony at Whole Foods in Austin.

And if it’s a kiss you want, get to hanging up that mistletoe! Whatever your Christmas or holiday wish is, go for it!

You must choose success for it to be drawn to you. Expect success.

 

Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) ~ Forgiveness

Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself.

Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself.

We forgive to give ourselves a new lease on life – not to give the person who wronged us a “get out of jail free” card. People make it sound so easy, and we know it will shift, the release will happen at the right time. Well, this IS the right time, Aquarius. It’s time to accept that person as they are, release them, and make your heart whole again.

If it’s a big forgive that needs to happen, then set yourself up for success before you go to sleep for three nights. Ask Spirit, Lady Mary, or the great Flying Spaghetti Monster to “cut the cords” for this situation.

If it’s a little forgive that needs to happen, get outside, under the stars, and imagine all the negativity from the situation draining into the ground. Ask Mother Earth to recycle the energy and sleep soundly.

Or, you may find that you are unexpectedly offered an apology or another gift. Know that by doing your own release work, whatever that is, you open yourself to be brought new spiritual and emotional gifts (and cookies wouldn’t hurt, either!). You are loved.

Pisces (February 20 – March 20) ~ Quiet

Pisces, take time out for yourself this month.

Pisces, take time out for yourself this month.

You have the answers within you. Go to that quiet place when you want to hear them, Pisces. If you take time to listen, you will be amazed at the wisdom your spirit will offer you. Let go of the memories of Christmas Past.

Lady Mary wants you to allow in your Christmas or holiday future, but you need to set aside a little time for reflection this month. It will serve you well and keep you going as you bop from party to party. Take the rest and quiet time you need to enjoy this delightful month, Pisces. Seek balance and you will find all the things you need.

Reluctant Piscean spiritualists may become baffled at the changes in energy coming up. But, it’s all good.

Aries (March 21 – April 20) ~ Watched Over

Remember to speak with the angels this month, Aries.

Remember to speak with the angels this month, Aries.

When you and those close to you are watched over, you can let go of the strings a bit. Take a deep breath and relax.

If you are a parent/grandparent/parent by choice, let your children take those next steps. Let them stay out an hour later with their friends. Let them try cooking the family dish for the first time. Know that you’ve done a great job in helping them become the young people that they are today. Let them bring home a new boy/girl friend that maybe you don’t like. Trust that if they don’t know what they are doing now, they will very soon.

For friends, colleagues and others. Let go. You are safe, so you can be generous. For example, Phil from work thinks a juicer is a good gift for his wife, because he wants fresh orange juice on the weekend. So what! Or your crazy best friend wants to start a catering business or Etsy shop? It’s time for you to be the sunshine for the others around you.

YOU are the hope-giver right now. Your beaming energy is contagious. You are the emotional equivalent of Santa for grown-ups! And you know why? Because YOU are watched over. You are protected and loved both in this realm and the great beyond.

Taurus (April 21 – May 20) ~ Present Moment

Taurus, your gift this month is to enjoy the present moment.

Taurus, your gift this month is to enjoy the present moment.

Worry is not serving you, Taurus. When you feel that buzzy energy of December 2015 swirling around you, take a time out. Then, do something that will help you in the here and now. Set a time for 15 minutes and do something that will make you grounded in the present moment. Maybe that’s cleaning out a kitchen drawer, taking a shower, walking around the block, or coloring a page in a coloring book.

Bring yourself to the present. And bring those people you love around you so that you can enjoy them in the present. Now is a gift we can give to ourselves, and to others. If you’re single right now, saying “yes” to enjoying the moment will attract folks to you like a magnet! The same is true if you’re looking for new friends. Go to the parties, and say yes to fun this month.

 

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) ~ Gratitude

Gratitude will bring you contentment and joy this month.

Gratitude will bring you contentment and joy this month.

Gemini, have you ever heard the old Protestant hymn, “Praise God through whom all blessings flow”? Acknowledging the role Spirit (God, Goddess, or even Your Higher Self) played in getting you where you are today will bring you an abundance of blessings this month. Some will be surprises.

To bring in your holiday wishes, know yourself and what you want. Ask Spirit to provide, and continue to do your homework on the other end. Clean out your home or office so there’s room for new blessings to come in. Create a vacuum of physical space. If you want Santa to visit for Christmas, you have to hang up your stocking!

Belief, faith, hope, and gratitude will bring you to a new level of abundance.

Cancer (June 21 – July 21) ~ Action

It's time to get your ducks in a row And move forward this month.

It’s time to get your ducks in a row AND move forward this month.

Aha, Cancer! Lady Mary has caught you with your hand in the cookie jar! It’s time to stop procrastinating—which is happening since there’s a lot of new energy ready to flow in once the dam breaks down. Take action in big ways and small—state your preference when asked what you want for dinner. Practice voicing your opinion, because without it, action has nowhere to follow, nowhere to take you. What’s your biggest dream for the next year? And what small action can you take today to make it happen?

You may feel more like life happens to you instead of for you. This December is the birth of a new cycle for you, if you’re up for it. Time to shake things up! Write up that bucket list, post it on your bathroom mirror, and get crackin’!

 

Leo (July 22 – August 21) ~ Children

Remember holidays of years gone by?

Remember holidays of years gone by?

Have you gotten in touch with your inner child lately, Leo? You’re feeling the fact that you’re an old soul more and more recently. It’s time to release any blocks around your heart. Your heart is so big; that sometimes you feel like it needs to be held back. Not so this month, Leo. Let your star shine, and your heart love. Enjoy your children, your pets, and your family of choice.

Open yourself to the wonder of the season. Remember what it was like to find joy, and beauty, in everyday things. A butterfly. New snow. Riding a skateboard down that hill that scared you. Leo, you can manifest what you desire, if you remember the yearnings of your childish heart.

 

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)  ~ Joy

Time to download some Joy.

Time to download some Joy, Virgo!

Live in the moment, Virgo. Spend time doing things that bring you into the present, with people that make you laugh, or make your heart ache in a wonderful way. You deserve to be surrounded with those people who enjoy doing what you do, where you can all escape into the moment.

Join a roller derby. Dance. Play in a band. Build a gazebo. Or run away to join the circus. Move to Portland.

Shake things up, and enjoy the people, places, and things that you love.

 

Libra (September 22 – October 21) ~ Mother

Libra, Lady Mary offers you a Mother's blessing this month.

Libra, Lady Mary offers you a Mother’s blessing this month.

We can all open our hearts to the divine mother, regardless of whether we are male or female. This season is a time to reach out to others who may be in pain. If you’re in emotional pain yourself—this is a time to put out some tentacles of trust and latch on to those helpers who can bring you back into the light.

Mother is the divine nurturer, the divine safe space. She brings us peace along with hope for new beginnings. Let this December be a time for you to bring those you love together and shift from darkness to light. Winter Solstice, or Yule, is the birth of the light half of the year. Know that the light is coming, physically, literally, and emotionally. Yule begins an important 6-month cycle for you, Libra. What will you bring into the light with you? What’s worth keeping for the journey?

Scorpio (October 22 – November 22) ~ Tenderness

Tenderness means that the locks on your heart are ready to open to a new level this month.

Tenderness means that the locks on your heart are ready to open to a new level this month.

Scorpio, you can be strong and merciful at the same time. You may be made into a Good Samaritan of sorts or be assisted by one this month. It is time to contact with new people and ideas. Know that you are filled with the Divine. Of course, don’t do anything stupid—but know that you have the power to take on anything. Consider the amount of power needed to get the job done. Your strength, your heart, and your influence is larger than you may think. Don’t power wash your wine glasses. Use the right amount of energy to get the job done.

If you’re willing to show a bit more of your soft side, love will be drawn to you. Irresistibly. Enjoy the party!

 

Sending every joy to your and yours in this holiday season.  Have a wonderful December!   ~ Christine

November 2015 Horoscopes

This month’s horoscopes were channeled using the Golden Botticelli Tarot. It’s a beautiful deck in the style of Renaissance painter Botticelli who is known for the work “The Birth of Venus.” As much Renaissance artwork was on themes from the Bible, there are a lot of Christian themes in this deck, not just ancient Greek and Roman gods and goddesses. You’ll find the Pope, the Virgin Mary, and a host of angels waiting for you in these cards.

November’s Message: 10 of Pentacles – Coming Home

a path of 10 coins leads to a cozy house.

November’s card is the 10 of Pentacles.

While the adage “Home is where the heart is,” may sound like a cliché, this card shows us that the part to our heart’s desire is more straightforward than we think. When you connect into your heart energy and let the noise around you die down, your body know what feels like “home.” Is that a place, a person, both? Make a beeline towards that which provides you security during this Thanksgiving month of November. The goddess Vesta says, don’t let anyone come and rest at your hearth who does not belong in the home of your heart.

 

 

 

November Sun Signs

Scorpio (October 22 – November 22) ~ 9 of Wands

Scorpio: 9 of Wands

Scorpio: 9 of Wands

Happy Birthday, Scorpio! You’re at the end and the birth of another year of life on this glorious earth. The message of the 9 of Wands is that of completion and rebirth. Follow your passions for this month (and the upcoming year). Do not take your eyes off of the prize. Keep your eyes on the road and the steps you need to put in place to make that happen. You have put your ducks in a row to take flight into your new adventure.

 

 

 

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21) ~ (XXI) The World

Sagittarius: The World

Sagittarius: The World

Dear Sagittarius, you are not on a lonely island. In reality, you are swimming in a sea of possibilities. Botticelli’s Venus is here to tell you that the world is your oyster! Everything and everyone you touch will bask in your glow. If you feel upset or disconnected from those around you, make sure you get some rest time to sit still and connect to the love that surrounds you—the world really is at your fingertips. Anything is possible. Bask in it.

 

 

 

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) ~ 1 of Pentacles

Capricorn: Ace of Pentacles

Capricorn: Ace of Pentacles

Guess what? With two angels and one pentacle, it’s time to start your new creative endeavors NOW, not at New Year’s. I you’re looking to start a creative project, like a novel (NaNoWriMo, anyone?), make an investment, or look to gain news skills or a new career, you’ve got to start now. And that’s just like the Capricorn—s/he’s climbing up that rocky mountain while everyone else is lollygagging around. Know that you are blessed by spirit and ask for angelic guidance as you start this new endeavor.

 

 

Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) ~ 9 of Chalices (cups)

Aquarius: 9 of chalices

Aquarius: 9 of chalices

Aquarius, you aren’t easily satisfied by the same things as the people around you. There’s some sort of disconnect and it’s time to drink from the full cup of life. It’s time to find the others who think like you do—whether that is a new bestie, business partner, or a passionate love interest. In the right environment, you have the capacity to feel so much joy and contentment, but you have to take the wheel. If you see someone who looks as out of place as you feel, reach out to them. Your capacity for empathy is a balm to those around you, especially this month.

 

 

 

Pisces (February 20 – March 20) ~ 9 of Swords

Pisces: 9 of Swords

Pisces: 9 of Swords

Your intent is the strongest tool in your arsenal this month, Pisces. Don’t overthink things, but set your intention and back it up with logical action. Don’t let others push you around. Be thoughtful in what activities and projects you take on in the next few weeks. Make sure they line up with your personal ethics and goals. Have faith. You’ve worked hard and a change is coming soon.

 

 

 

 

Aries (March 21 – April 20) ~ 2 of Pentacles

Aries: 2 of Pentacles

Aries: 2 of Pentacles

Pan’s sons and daughters await your orders. Get out into nature this month as a way to relax and unwind. Enjoy the crisp fall winds and the crunch of leaves below your feet. The dear little goat foot god and goddesses want you to be as bouncy as those hippos in pink tutus in Fantasia dancing to Ponchielli’s opera. Let whimsy be your guide. Know that if you follow what makes you laugh till tears come to your eyes that you will always have enough financially, spiritually, and joyfully.

 

 

 

Taurus (April 21 – May 20) ~ 6 of Swords

Taurus: 6 of Swords

Taurus: 6 of Swords

In the Rider-Waite tarot deck, a man and a woman start on a journey, with six swords accompanying them in their boat. For Botticelli, however, this is not the case, Taurus. It’s time to choose which perspective, which journey you will take. Will you stay in the same place, stuck at home with your thoughts? Right now, your point of view is creating a barrier between you and those around you.

You have three choices. Choice #1: stay in your comfortable fortress, because you are right—you’ve thought it through and know it in your bones. But, being right can sometimes get lonely. Choice #2: Take the high road, concede, and watch the circumstances around you shift in an instant. With this choice—you’ll gain the wisdom of being able to see things on a much more universal level without much effort. You’ll shoot up, like a weed, in your personal growth. Choice #3: You can take that boat that the couple wanted to use—but you must leave your swords—your preconceived notion—behind – you’ll learn to take the sails and will feel more in control of your life if you’re brave enough to shift the situation completely.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) ~ (XII) The Hanged Man

Gemini: XII The Hanged Man

Gemini: XII The Hanged Man

Ah, Gemini, at this time of the year where the opening of the month features Day of the Dead and Guy Fawkes day, it makes so much sense that your twin-view of the world would land you here, as the hanged man. Can you just sit and enjoy the place you’re in this month? Forcing the matter is not going to help things right now. Being able to sit in the space of indecision is in itself a choice that takes an open heart to accomplish. You have that big heart—a twin-sized heart! Put off any big decisions and changes until next month. Sit tight, Gemini.

 

 

Cancer (June 21 – July 21) ~ King of Chalices (cups)

Cancer: King of Chalices

Cancer: King of Chalices

The King here reminds us of that Seinfeld episode where Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer have a Contest to see who can be the “master of their domain” for the longest period of time. So, the question is—does falling head over heels make you feel more smart (like Jerry, George, and Kramer) or giddy and distracted (like Elaine)? You may feel like all the power is in the people around you and that you have no control over your emotions, your soul mate, what will happen to you, et cetera. But in truth, you are the one who knows your heart best. You are the one with the capability to tap into your emotional and spiritual legacy–to create whatever your heart desires.

Your question this month is—do you channel that creativity or drive better on your own, or working with a partner?

Leo (July 22 – August 21) ~ Knight of Swords

Leo: Knight of Swords

Leo: Knight of Swords

Deep thoughts. New thoughts swirl around you and life is opening up in ways you never expected. Situations feel like they are changing quickly as you are provided with new information and new ways of thinking. While those around you are powering down for the holidays, this is a time filled with new insights for you, Leo. Harness this holiday energy to bring you together with new friends along with those people you haven’t seen in a long time. You’re going to hit a Eureka moment this month if you open yourself up to new stimuli from parties, get-togethers, targeted Google searches, and making space for the new.

 

 

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)  ~ (XIV) Temperance

Virgo: XIV Temperance

Virgo: XIV Temperance

Moderation as you approach the holidays is key, Virgo. Enjoy yourself, but stay grounded. Take the middle path—don’t go all out, but also don’t do so much nesting that you cut yourself off from others. Your family, friends, and coworkers need you as an example of sanity in this season of holiday mayhem. This may sound like a downer—but it’s really not. Temperance knows how to “have it all.” It’s time to think about what “having it all” would mean to you—what parts are necessary for maximum personal and spiritual growth, for maximum companionship, for maximum joy. You deserve to “have it all” in a healthy and happy way. Do what you need to do to pull things into balance—and remember: it’s okay to delegate.

 

Libra (September 22 – October 21) ~ (V) The Hierophant

Libra: V The Hierophant

Libra: V The Hierophant

How do you see yourself? If you were a guru and had a following of people who were supposed to learn and grow from your example, what message would you share with them?   What message do you need most? Sit quietly and listen. Is it: “You are divinely loved.” “You bring joy to others.” “You are forgiven.” “We are all one.” Who IS your imaginary hierophant? Is it Pope Francis? Jiminy Cricket? Archangel Michael? Or the Caterpillar? Whoever it is, channel that energy and use it this month.

 

 

 

 

Sending bright blessings, joy, and the spirit of the Thanksgiving holiday to you all!   Enjoy your November and our travels towards the darkest part of the year–Winter Solstice.

Tarot Horoscope! – October 2015

October's Channeled Horoscope Uses the Morgan-Greer Tarot.

October’s Channeled Horoscope Uses the Morgan-Greer Tarot.

We’re all waiting with bated breath for the weather to turn chilly down here in Texas. I remember the gorgeous leaves and the changing of the seasons from when I lived in Indiana and upstate New York. It was a feast of beauty for the eyes and the soul. And a time to break out the cute sweaters! Here, we wear shorts whenever we can, and enjoy the brief bursts of rain turning everything green once more. Leaves will fall eventually…maybe for Thanksgiving?

October 2015 Horoscopes

This month’s horoscopes were channeled using the Morgan Greer Tarot. This deck riffs on the traditional Rider-Waite, but has richer color saturation (versus the traditional wood cuts) and focuses more on people and relationships in its imagery. It’s a wonderful deck to use if you want to keep all the symbolism of the Rider-Waite, but want something with a bit of pizzazz.

October’s Message: The Ace of Swords – Time for a Do Over!

October's Message: Ace of Swords

October’s Message: Ace of Swords

We’ve come through the Fall Equinox and we’ve progressed through the blood moon eclipse of September 27th. The result is that Spirit is providing us with a clean slate, or a do-over if we need one. In October, Spirit supports us all in endeavors that use our brains, and our bodies. This can be manifested through solving an old problem that nagged and nagged at us, but a new solution pops out of nowhere. Or, that exercise or meditation practice that was always so hard to start—give it a try now, even if it means we give ourselves a goal like, “I’m going to go and stand on the treadmill for 5 minutes per day.” By thinking of doing things in a new way, we break out of old patterns and can achieve victory more quickly. If there’s something we want, it’s time to get started on “thinking outside of the box.”

October Sun Signs

Libra (September 22 – October 21) ~ (VII) The Chariot

Libra: VII The Chariot

Libra: VII The Chariot

Have you ever heard the theme for the old TV show, Bonanza? The dotted melody pushes you along and you get the sense of freedom, of just flying by, being at one with your horse, with the wind in your hair. The Chariot provides you with freedom, with relief. And since you have this card in addition to the Ace of Swords—you’ll be able to bring wonderful things into your life this October. Depending on what you want—it might not take a month (could be shorter/longer), but you can sure as heck cut off some travel time—the burden and gift of this month is this: You can have what you want—but you have to KNOW what you want. You have to get confident enough to KNOW it in your BONES. If your horse is wheeling in circles, it’s fun for a while, but can eventually make you feel a bit sick. Not sure where to start? First, write it down (or make a Pinterest board). Second, ask for help from the Universe—and if you’re a spiritual type like so many of us are, CHOOSE a particular entity, even if you’ve never prayed. Focus that laser beam.

Scorpio (October 22 – November 22) ~ 10 of Swords

Scorpio: 10 of Swords with sunstone and Red Jasper stones.

Scorpio: 10 of Swords with Sunstone and Red Jasper stones.

With the Ace of Swords as your companion card (above for October) you’re going from 0-60 (Ace to Ten of Swords) in 5 seconds. You’re a well-oiled machine—but everything has to be prepped and in order to make the journey. Get an oil check or a tune up on your car if you drive. Scorpio, your goal this month is to find the middle way through. Follow the balanced path—but start embracing your shadow side.

It’s easy to overthink because you’re smart as a whip and like to GSD (Get Stuff Done). Prioritize. You’ll move your mountain. Also, try to fly a little under the radar—only tell those people who truly have your back about your plans to take over the world (or your love life, or your workplace). Don’t give the naysayers, the jealous folks, or the haters any energy to take you down. Not necessarily stealth, but quiet confidence as you progress through October and  GSD.

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21) ~ (XVII) The Star

Sagittarius: XVII The Star

Sagittarius: XVII The Star

Near the close of the Major Arcana, the tarot has the Moon, the Sun, and the Star. Of the three, the Star has the wisdom of being able to balance the darkness and the light. Her waters are calm, but have a swift undercurrent to take you to your destination, while the Star, like the rainbow, has the promise of a happy end. The eight stars above her are the number of infinity, of continual manifestation. It’s a reminder to bring your bliss to pass.

What will your happy ending be this month, Sagittarius? Is it a hot date with a new paramour? Is it a comfortable evening sharing a barbecue outdoors with your significant other? Is it being surrounded by a group of cheering fans at a Rush concert, who know the words to every tune? The Star is a reminder to follow your bliss. By doing so, you’re feeding your soul. It’s a must.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) ~ 9 of Pentacles

Capricorn: 9 of Pentacles

Capricorn: 9 of Pentacles

Capricorn, with the suit of pentacles you really can’t go wrong. You’re the one who’s always working, even on your day off. It’s time to cash in on all of that work! It’s time to bring your life back into balance. The Ace of Swords for October provides easy passage, and your necklace of pentacle coins, hard work, experiences, are lined up around your neck, like a string of beads.

What will you do to nurture and to feed yourself; emotionally, in your relationships, and spiritually during October? Relax and enjoy the fruits of your labors. In November, you’ll be starting an entirely new cycle. Take October and bring the people you love around you; those people who make up your family of choice. Also, if you’d like to have an animal Spirit Guide, now is a good time to ask. This animal can show up in the physical or the astral. There’s several ways to find them: 1) If you have a pet, sit quietly with them and ask if they’d be your Guide. –Or—2) Sit in meditation, and see what the first animal is that pops into your mind. –Or– 3) If you’re ready for a new pet, see about adopting one. –Or– 4) Work with a set of animal totem oracle cards. You can either choose the card with the face side down, OR, you can go through the deck and see which animals you are drawn to. When you’re all done—ask your Spirit Guide Animal to help you in every day things, especially around your home. It’s time!

Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) ~ (I) The Magician

Aquarius: I The Magician

Aquarius: I The Magician

You’re at a crossroads, Aquarius. It’s time to get the party started! Your talents and abilities have come together and you’re at a new level of mastery. The Magician, combined with your Ace of Swords for October, means that you’ll have increased success with your goals this month, as long as they are thoughtfully chosen. (And acted upon, of course!)

As the Magician, you have the power to create something out of nothing—you see the opportunities that others do not. You have myriad options: you can choose among goals such as starting/finishing your education, finding a vocation, strengthening or creating loving relationship/s, or improving your financial situation through employment or investments.

See where your passion leads you, and find a partner in crime—will you met with an accountant, a resume writer, or attend a speed-dating event? Let those who can curate experiences for you “add to your magic” so you can enjoy the process.  You can do magic.

Pisces (February 20 – March 20) ~ 5 of Cups

Pisces: 5 of Cups

Pisces: 5 of Cups

Pisces, it’s time for you to clean house. You need to create a “vacuum” in your life for new things to come in by getting rid of something old. For most Pisces, this will be stepping back from some people and relationships.

Please reassess values and beliefs this October before you take any action! If you have a trusted friend or therapist that you can run things by, that would also be helpful. The people around you do not have to agree with you (and you’ll find many do not—but it’s entirely okay), but they do need to respect you and be on your side.

If the people around you are helpful friends, coworkers, and loved ones, then move on to the physical realm. What are you attached to? Is there an area in your life where you’re feeling stuck? Take a look at that area, and see what you can do to clean out.

And if all else fails—just start by cleaning out a bookshelf, or a junk drawer, or even your underwear drawer. By decluttering, you’ll start bringing new energies in—and it’s going to be fun, so don’t cry over the spilled cups. It’s like a poker hand—you’re trading out 3 cards to get the perfect full house.

Aries (March 21 – April 20) ~ 10 of Pentacles

Aries: 10 of Pentacles

Aries: 10 of Pentacles

Ah, the elusive 10 of pentacles. Most of the time, 10s are about overdoing it, or starting all over again at the beginning. But the 10 of pentacles, Aries, is a jackpot. You have all your ducks in a row. This is a card that indicates success, comfort, creativity, and a loving home. It just “buzzes” with positive energy!

Basking in the contentment of knowing yourself and your own wishes. Know that you stand in power. Don’t leave behind those you love–bring in your partner, friend, or your family into your safe and comfortable haven. You need to share your “secret sauce.” For the curious, tell them how you got what you have in this situation. It could be something really easy for you, but difficult for another. You’re now the mentor—and by giving back, good things will flow in.

If you’re single, this is a great spot from which to start dating again. If you’re partnered, do know that you’ve reached a crossroads—enjoy being partners in crime. Let yourself look up at the stars and wonder, “If we were able to do THAT—what else can we do?” It’s like a joyful version of “me and you against the world.”

Taurus (April 21 – May 20) ~ (VIII) Strength

Taurus: VIII Strength

Taurus: VIII Strength

What thing, when brought into control, would reap you tons of benefits? This is a wonderful time to start good habits that have may have been difficult in the past. Maybe you’re single and need to go to one social event and on one date per week. Maybe you want to start applying for new jobs, but just can’t sit down and compose your resume. Maybe you’re tired of a health issue taking over your life.

Know that this is the perfect time to move forward. You will be given additional resources to help with the problem at hand. Part of this is an inner strength that you’ll build up to the next level. But, the other part of this is knowing that you don’t have to do it alone. There are helpful people at hand who want to give you the secret of taming your particular lion. And once you have that trick—the people around you will be amazed. Know that you can do it. And if you need to, put it into baby steps (or as Sark says, micromovements). What can you do in 2 minutes that will strengthen you in this situation? Then, what can you do in another 2 minutes? It’s time for skill building that will lead to long-term results.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) ~ Queen of Swords

Gemini: Queen of Swords

Gemini: Queen of Swords

You, dear Gemini, know how to balance logic and love. It’s one of the benefits of being the sign of the twins—you get twice the wisdom this October. Expect that people will come to your for advice this month, Gemini. It’s gong to be fun, because you’re going to find that you have skills and resources that you didn’t know that you had in place. You’ll learn more about yourself.

The Queen of Swords combined with the Ace of Swords means it’s time to cut through the clutter. Getting what you want should be easier now than it has been in the previous 6 months or so. (As long as you’re not trying to force a person to do what you want!) Look through the Queen’s eyes—act as if you ARE the Queen who knows it all, even if you don’t feel like it. Put on the Queen’s mantle.   For men, take on the energy of mastery found in the queen, but check in with your heart and feelings a bit more. That will give you the gifts of the sacred feminine that you need right now, while strutting in your masculine glory! For all genders, by walking the walk, and talking the talk, you will shift situations into positive outcomes. Due to your gregarious and dual nature, Gemini—the energy’s going to feel so nice this month to you. As a result, you may get distracted. Focus is key to success.

Cancer (June 21 – July 21) ~ (XV) The Devil

Cancer: XV The Devil

Cancer: XV The Devil

So, Cancer, what’s the issue that’s plaguing you? You Cancers have such generous hearts that sometimes people will want to take advantage of you and your loving energy. Because of that, this is a good time to integrate your shadow side with the everyday love you emit. You bring people together. Share your love, support, and friendship for those who appreciate it and say thank you.

Let the Devil be the gatekeeper for this month and be of service to you. Go ahead and examine your shadow side—what does your darkest self want to do? What bad habits do they have? And finally, how can you use a touch of your inner bad boy/bad girl to get what you want? Harness your dark side to fuel your passions—because you’ll be going right back into the light. You can’t stay here with the devil—it’s not your nature. This is a sign. Be selfish this month in a good way—access your passion, drive, and heart. Explore the dark depths to find out what it is you REALLY want.

If you’re one of those people who can’t pick a restaurant (or going through that phase) you’re ready—you’ve got to go deep and pull up that selfishness. Use it to create the next big thing! Do you want a mate you think is hawt? Do you want to perfect your man cave? Do you want to spend a day reading trashy novels or watching Lifetime movies? Do something selfish for yourself. It will give you your mojo back, and you’ll be of service to others in the end—trust us.

The Devil is about releasing the chains that you think are holding you back, but they’ve actually slipped loose. You can walk away at any time.

Leo (July 22 – August 21) ~ (III) The Empress

Leo: III The Empress

Leo: III The Empress

The Empress is a wise woman—the one who can make decisions from a place of wisdom and skill. If you’re feeling adrift and need a mentor, this is a good time to seek someone out for assistance. To bring the right person in, try and go analog. Ask your friends for help and go to at least two events this month where you’ll meet someone new. You’re ready to learn about new solutions and new ways of doing things.

If you’re feeling confident and secure, know that the opposite may occur. It’s time to look at your skill set and acknowledge what you bring to the table.

Leo, What are your special talents and skills? It could be anything from making the perfect tamales, to counseling the lovelorn, to setting up a website. Take a half hour and write down everything it is you know how to do—let your skills put a spring in your step! It’s time to bring some new people into your circle. The right people will share your enthusiasm. It will be magnetic! Who do you want to draw in?

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)  ~ King of Swords

Virgo: King of Swords

Virgo: King of Swords

Virgo, you mastered Strength in September and here in October you reach another level of Mastery—the King of Swords. It is time to lie out your carefully made plans and start executing them. With the support from Spirit in the Ace of Swords (for October) and your ultimate card of the King of Swords—you rule the suit of Air. Your powers of thought, reason, and discernment are here to help you.

You’re not going to be able to help bringing other people along for your adventure. Think about whom you want to join you—otherwise you’ll have a huge group at your home, eating your pantry bare like poor Bilbo Baggins in the Fellowship of the Ring! Keep your arms and heart open—but be discerning. You choose whom to bring into the inner circle. You choose who belongs to your Fellowship.

There’s a place for everyone. And have fun!

Enchanted Tarot Horoscopes – September 2015

Channeled Tarot Horoscope by ChristinethePsychic.com - September 2015

Channeled Tarot Horoscope by ChristinethePsychic.com – September 2015

 Doesn’t September always make you think about going back to school, regardless of whether you have kiddos in the house? It’s time to buy a new outfit or two, to think ahead to the holidays coming up, and to try to hold on to the last bit of summer. Barbeques and pool parties galore dot our weekends, and we look forward to cooler days to watch baseball outside or take the dog on a long walk in the shade. And less sweating—that, too, at least here in Texas. Trixie has me jogging a bit every day to keep her from puling at the leash—and I’ll end up a runner by default at some point.

September 2015 Horoscopes

This month’s horoscopes were channeled using the Enchanted Tarot. This deck is tactile in nature as each card was created as a quilt and then photographed. So much intention and Light has been sewn, quilted, and appliquéd into each card.

September’s Message: The Wheel of Fortune

September's Message for All: 10 - The Wheel of Fortune

September’s Message for All: 10 – The Wheel of Fortune

September is another new year, a month of change. While we often have certain expectations as to what we, or our kids, will learn at back-to-school time, instead; reexamine. It’s time to play the odds, to have a bit of lady luck come your way. In order to have the winning odds, you’ve got to act as if you are the “house” (of the casino). The House knows that it’s going to win, eventually—because it has the odds and the resources to continue playing.

If you decide to back off and just let the situation unfold as it may—you may get very lucky, or you may end up with the leftovers. There’s nothing wrong with that, but–By creating the feeling that you will win, you can bring success into view. For example, if you want a certain type of car—go and take one for a test drive, even if you have no intention to buy it right now. Put the “feeling” of success into you body, just like you would practice the perfect slam-dunk, or Bach etude. It’s all beautiful.

September Sun Signs

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)  ~ 4 of Wands

Virgo: 4 of Wands

Virgo: 4 of Wands

Everything is in balance for you this month, Virgo. If you’re feeling unsupported, reach out—there’s someone willing to have your back for whatever adventure you’d like to embark on. Create a garden around you, or a new home brew set up, or anything that will fuel your passion and zest for life. From this place of stability, you can create things for yourself that didn’t seem possible in the past.

The 4 of Wands is also traditionally associated with love, marriage and the expression of new levels of commitment in your relationship. It’s the foundation from which to create a joyful home. So, if your relationships are floundering, it’s time to give them some TLC.

 

Libra (September 22 – October 21) ~ Prince of Pentacles

Libra: Prince of Pentacles

Libra: Prince of Pentacles

The Prince of Pentacles is here to take you to the stars, Libra. It’s time for you to announce to the world your wishes and dreams. It’s time to take a risk from a place of strength and virility. It’s okay if those around you don’t agree with you—it’s time to distinguish your voice from the chorus of those around you. The fears of those around you need to be discarded as you move forward.

You will have followers—they may be people who share your dreams, or even romantic partners. Your voice is so persuasive that this time, Libra, that you could convince the very trees to uproot themselves, Ent-like, and follow you over the mountains to the sea.

 

Scorpio (October 22 – November 22) ~ (4) Emperor

Scorpio: 4 The Emperor

Scorpio: 4 The Emperor

The Emperor is a man of the ages, Scorpio. His power can be used for good or evil. The question is: Are you the emperor, or are you the subject? Wisdom is more easily gained when you have all of the information. If you are the emperor, you need to get up off of your throne and get your hands dirty—find out what you need to know for yourself. You won’t have quite enough information even if you rely on trusted family members, friends, or co-workers. This is a time when you need to experience things to move ahead.

If you’re the subject: Whom are you putting up there on the throne, on a pedestal above you? Are you giving away your power? While we can learn so much from others—we learn more and get better answers when we remember that we are all equal members of the human race. Institutions can to make us believe that we’re not worthy unless we follow the path assigned to us. However, we’re all equal in Spirit. We all have so much to learn, and to share with others. You have a unique contribution, Scorpio.

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21) ~ (11) Justice

Sagittarius: 11 Justice

Sagittarius: 11 Justice

Sit, soak up, and enjoy your power this month, Sagittarius. You are the sword and shield who is making things better for those to follow. What will be your legacy? Who will it be for? Is it for your children, your students, for future generations, or for everyone?

It’s time to take the middle path and stay in balance for this month. Now is also a good time to contact your financial advisor and check on starting or adding to any investments. Things are going well right now, so it is a good time to start saving for the future.

Be proactive about repairs and preventative maintenance of your body and your home. For example, schedule that annual checkup with your doctor or dentist. Or, go ahead and repaint the living room, or have someone replace those rotten shingles. You’ll feel great afterward!

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) ~ (16) Tower

Capricorn: 16 The Tower

Capricorn: 16 The Tower

Capricorn, change is a-coming! While this month may end up looking like one chaotic situation after another, you will successfully make it through to the other side.

Give yourself the upper hand in this situation. Here are three methods to ride out the storm: 1) Instead of being pulled into the chaos, try to stay in the eye of the storm. This will give you some peace as things change around you. You don’t have to engage. 2) Think long term. Know your long-term plans. This way, you can bend the storm to your advantage. 3) Finally, you can even be a tornado-chaser. Use this vortex of power that’s gathered around you to take an excitement-filled ride to the next level.

After the storm is the dawn. After the storm is new growth, green grass, and a happy outcome. Take good care of yourself this month, and be sure to do things that make you happy.

Watch lots of funny movies, make your favorite meal, and kiss those you love.

Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) ~ 7 of Hearts (Cups)

Aquarius: 7 of Hearts (Cups)

Aquarius: 7 of Hearts (Cups)

In the Enchanted Tarot, Aphrodite uses her magic touch to keep all seven hearts in the air, enclosed by an eighth heart, under the light of the moon and the stars. Love overflows for you. It brings you the power of a magician, who creates something out of seemingly nothing. You have skills and support around you that you’re not aware of Aquarius.

It’s time to harness your powers to bring what you want to pass—is it riches? Love? A new home? It’s time to expose the deepest wish of your heart and to go for it. The trick here is that it’s important to think of the outcome and not be attached to HOW it manifests. Ask Archangel Zadkiel to help you clear out any negative or muddled energy holding you back. Can you give a little bit of your worries to Spirit, and open the door to see a broader vision of what you want? Instead of just grasping that little heart with all your might, imagine bringing them together into the eight heart of infinity and bliss, all sponsored by mighty Aphrodite.

Pisces (February 20 – March 20) ~ 2 of Wands

Pisces: 2 of Swords

Pisces: 2 of Swords

Dear Pisces,

Why have you decided to participate in this standoff? Instead of overthinking your situation and staying stuck this month, let go and see what gifts you are given. You feel like you are at a crossroads—and you are. But, a crossroads only shows two outcomes. This or that. Us or them. Black or white—instead of the daily life we live filled with every color of the rainbow AND all the shades of gray.

Take a step back from the supposed problem at hand—take a little vacation form it, because it will be there as long as you’d like it to be there. You don’t have to “opt in” or “opt out.” There doesn’t have to be all the drama here that’s been whipped up about what school to attend, what job to take—or whether you’ll ever date again. There’s a web of opportunities open for you. This month, Pisces—please go take a day and do something that gives you joy. If you’re not sure of what that is—maybe it’s time to make a bucket list of some fun things to do before you hit your next birthday that ends with an “0”—whether that be 20, 30, 40, 50, or even 80.

Love, Your Guides

 Aries (March 21 – April 20) ~ 9 Swords

Aries: 9 of Swords

Aries: 9 of Swords

Aries, you’ve worked this situation out—this is going to be as good as it gets. If you’re in a good situation, soak it up and enjoy it! Have a party and invite everyone to celebrate with you. Maybe you’ve just finished your education, or are moving into a new job. And if you’re mourning the end of a relationship, a job, or a loved one who’s crossed over—have a celebration. Celebrate the person you have become, either because of or despite the person or situation. Have a divorce party and wear red. Celebrate your loved one and leave a plate at the table for them.

You’re at the best place for the swords—if you’re not feeling sure about this, it’s a good time to be turning your mind into an ally. The 10 of swords can mean that you’ve overdone things—and right now at the 9, you’re at the apex of things. You’re the top!

Taurus (April 21 – May 20) ~ Ace of Hearts (Cups)

Taurus: Ace of Hearts (Cups)

Taurus: Ace of Hearts (Cups)

In the Enchanted Tarot, the Ace of Hearts is not accompanied by the traditional cup. Instead there’s an urn. In ancient Egypt, they believed that the best place to make decisions wasn’t in the mind, but in the heart. As a result, they preserved the heart in a small urn or jar to keep it around as long as possible—to give the soul its means of making decisions. Both the heart, and its jar were called the “Ab.”

Know that at this time, you are supported by spirit in any relationships or new endeavors. Let your brain do its own things—and instead, make your decisions from the heart.

Know that spirit is saying, “Never, Never Gonna Give You Up–’cause quitting just ain’t my schtick” (Barry White – Chorus hist at about 2:35-2:40)) so why would you give up on them?

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) ~ King of Pentacles

Gemini: King of Pentacles

Gemini: King of Pentacles

Gemini, you will arrive at a new apex of your creativity this month. By harnessing your power, you can move forward in your artistic life (if you have a creative bent), in your career, and/or in your finances. The King of Pentacles rules creativity, career, and money in a positive way. If you have an entrepreneurial bent, now is a good time to start harvesting those ideas as well.

Look out for allies that can help you in your pursuits. If you’re not sure of how to move forward—start journaling daily, or download a voice recorder app to start capturing your ideas. It’s time to start thinking outside of the box. Act as if you are lucky, and the Law of Attraction will help bring things together for you.

 

Cancer (June 21 – July 21) ~ Ace of Pentacles

Cancer: Ace of Pentacles

Cancer: Ace of Pentacles

You will be supported in new endeavors this month, Cancer. But, things need to be shaken up a bit. How can you tweak what you are doing to be more successful, especially on the job or finance front? This month is all about sowing the seeds of manifestation, and believing that good things can come to pass. You can have money in a happy way. You can have health in a happy way. You can manifest the physical things you need, like a comfortable home, in a happy way.

In September, make a top 10 wish list of things you’d like to have happen in your life. To the end of each wish, add – “in a happy way” or “quickly and easily.” For example, “I’d like to find a new job, quickly and easily.” Or, “I’d like to start dating, in a happy way.” Whatever it is you want—now is the time to start building it. Start dreaming.

Leo (July 22 – August 21) ~ (8) Strength

Leo: 8 Strength

Leo: 8 Strength

Ah, it’s ironic, Leo, that you got the Strength card this month! In the Enchanted tarot, we see a maiden taming the king of the forest. They both are blessed with special powers to keep the world in balance—the maiden is crowned with the symbol of infinity and the lion with a traditional crown of power—of ruling over all that he surveys.

You will find your Strength through balance this month, Leo. You don’t have to be “tamed,” like the lion is in the picture. Instead, use infinity—think about the long game. Think about sustainability—what can you keep up? Where would you like to invest? Know that you are an asset to those around you. You are well loved; even if it is not always shown the way you’d like it to be.

With the combination of strength and infinity comes excellence, through the skill of knowing when to exert your strength, and when to save it for yourself. Step into your power, Leo.

Healing Crystals Horoscope – August 2015

August's Message: Moonstone

August’s Message: Moonstone

Healing Crystals Cards  Horoscopes – August 2015

Can you believe the Summer has hit its peak? Early August is the season of Lughnasadh. It’s the first of the harvest festivals, when the blackberries are ripe. As a teenager, my friends and I would go down to the creek and pick wild blackberries from the bushes that grew there. If they lasted long enough, I’d make blackberry pies to share. I hope your August is filled with yumminess!

August 2015 Horoscopes

Your August 2015 Healing Crystals Horoscope

Your August 2015 Healing Crystals Horoscope

This month’s horoscopes were channeled using the Healing Crystals Deck. This deck has a picture of each stone along with 3 keywords. The margins show the stone’s family, hardness, applicable chakras. On the back is an affirmation for each stone as well.

Each Sun Sign has its own stone and channeled message this month. To get more oomph out of your message, meditate with the stone or even just carry it around with you in a pocket or purse. Or just set it on your desk as you work. If you don’t have the time to go shopping—no worries! You can also use a photograph of the stone in the same way. Crystal Skull pictures of stones work even better. So enjoy your messages and carry them with you this month to gain courage, faith, and hope in your daily dealings.

Note that I’ve added a link to each stone here in case you want to learn more about it or have a photo for meditation.  The links are not an endorsement for purchasing stones or following information from the associated sites. Please make sure you follow your own heart, or contact the appropriate professional before making medical or financial decisions.

Enjoy! ~ Christine

 

August Message: Moonstone

August's Message: Moonstone

August’s Message: Moonstone

Moonstone looks like a simple, innocuous stone, but it’s not innocent. It knows the rhythms of life and the stories of old, for every generation. Use the wisdom of the moonstone this month to help ferret out patterns to help you: patterns in your relationships; patterns in the mundane; even patterns in the food you eat while dining on a hot august night. Meditate with moonstone to open up your psychic field and to clean and purify your chakras. This will open you to the true intentions of those around you.

August Sun Signs

Leo: Unakite (Jasper) ~ Virgo: Apache Tears ~ Libra: Clear Quartz

Leo: Unakite (Jasper) ~ Virgo: Apache Tears ~ Libra: Clear Quartz

Leo (July 22 – August 21) ~ Unakite (jasper)

Your stone, Leo, is Unakite. Like traditional jasper, unakite combines disparate elements into a glorious whole. This month, it’s time to get your life back in balance. While you’re doing fine, by making more thoughtful choices and pursuing things you’ve been putting off that need to be done. You’re also allowed to dump those goals or possessions or people that are merely unnecessary or even detrimental. Once your assessment is complete, it will be possible to bring improvement to your love life, creative fire and passion, and/or your health.

Carry or meditate on unakite to bring balance, grounding, health, and friendship (pink and green) or love/passion (red/green) into your life.

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)  ~ Apache Tears

Did you see that short cartoon called Lava which was the preview to the recent Pixar movie Inside Out? In Lava, the male volcano was ready to take on the task of patience, hope, and love to gain the companionship he wanted. The apache tears are the obsidian that he wept while thinking about and waiting for his sweetheart.

What are you obsessed about to the point of tears? Is it time to acknowledge to Spirit or your Loved Ones that you get it—that it’s time to let go? Once we hand hope over to Spirit and clear our hearts, we raise our vibration, thus making all things—even a new volcano companion—possible.

Know that you are being protected at this time. Carry or meditate on apache tears to protect, ground, and raise your vibration.

Scorpio: Blue Tiger Eye ~ Sagittarius: Selenite ~ Capricorn: Howlite

Scorpio: Blue Tiger Eye ~ Sagittarius: Selenite ~ Capricorn: Howlite

Libra (September 22 – October 21) ~ Clear Quartz

Libra, you have the master healer, the master builder—clear quartz. It’s an all-purpose stone, which makes anything possible this month. If you work with quartz without setting your intention, it’s a good stone to clean and purify you, kind of like the filter in an air cleaner or a goldfish bowl. But you, and quartz, are capable of your biggest desires.

By letting the quartz know what you want it to do, it can help in myriad ways. This month, take some time to gain clarity and ask the stone to help you do that. Once your intention is set, quartz can help you change a droplet of water into a raging river, or an ocean. It’s okay to start form humble beginnings, but it’s time to gain a direction. And if you don’t, you’ll be swept back and forth like the tide—you’ll think life is getting better, but you’ll look back a year later and find yourself swept back to the same place; the same patterns. You’ll have the ride of your life on a rapids-filled river, but end up ankle-deep in sand if you stay where you are. It’s time to get moving!

Also remember that quartz is in our computers, our electronics, and our phones—does your talents lay in it?

Scorpio (October 22 – November 22) ~ Blue Tiger Eye (Hawk’s Eye)

Tiger Eye is known for making you brave, Scorpio. However, blue tiger eye is a bit more elusive. The bravery here is about finding your own voice. It’s about finding your own path and being true to yourself.

How do you communicate with the world? It’s time to update your image, whether that is how you speak and relate with others in person, taking up singing or a musical instrument, or some other sort of artistry. There’s also art in nature, in taking a hike in the woods and feeling the still, small voice that comes forward when you make space for it.

If you feel yourself getting frustrated or stuck, this sounds really silly, but use the phrase often uttered by Frank Underwood on House of Cards: “How do you mean?” Ask yourself. Ask your neighbors, friends, kids, and coworkers. Instead of standing upon the façade of what’s spoken, explore what’s really below the surface. When you ask someone, “How do you mean?” you pave the way for communication—and delight. Make sure you fit it in on your next date and watch how the energy between the two of you crackles.

Meditate on blue tiger eye to improve matters dealing with your thyroid and voice/larynx, to gain a sense of peace or calm, and to acknowledge and release emotions.

 Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21) ~ Selenite

Sagittarius, it’s time to up your game, as selenite has come to your aid. It amplifies the good that’s naturally occurring around you, and can serve as protection if placed in a room or carried on your person.

You are ready for a spiritual shift! Some Sagittarians will be beginning or continuing on their ascension process this month and will feel the upcoming energy shifts. It’s time to reach out to those things that you thought of as familiar but dismissed. Who or what is the “Pluto” of your spiritual life? We all knew Pluto was there, and had recently downgraded it to the “dwarf planet.” Now, however, we see that it’s got glaciers, amazing formations, and well-developed moons. There’s a whole lot we didn’t know, because we were not looking in the right way. It’s time to shift your perspective. And, call on the Angels, or your favorite pantheon of god/desses—they are waiting.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) ~ Howlite

White howlite is an ancient stone. It shows that even as we try to bring ourselves and keep ourselves staying positive, that we need to continue to acknowledge the darkness that made that possible. This planet is full of balancing energy. To come to the light, we have had to journey through darkness, as in the 23rd Psalm; “Lo, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me.”

Know that you are never alone. Know that you are bringing the Light to others in acts of daily kindness—even those ones that are so normal to you that they come to you like breathing. You’re being given an opportunity this month to remove another bit of darkness and offer it up to the Light. What burden would you like to be consumed by the Light, so you don’t have to carry it any more? What emotional pain or old bad memory or regret? Now’s the time to offer it up and to wipe the slate clean, permanently. If cleared by a doctor, consider EMDR therapy if you’re dealing with PTSD.

Meditate or carry howlite and use it to help with Akashic Records, to contact Mary and the Saints, and to protect you from emotional vampires. Remember to set the intention as you use the stone so it knows what to do for you.

Aquarius: Yellow Jasper  ~ Pisces: Amazonite ~ Aries:  Snowflake Obsidian

Aquarius: Yellow Jasper ~ Pisces: Amazonite ~ Aries: Snowflake Obsidian

Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) ~ Yellow Jasper

Yellow jasper is your stone this August, Aquarius. It’s time to step away form your burdens, dear water-bearer, and look at the situations around you in a different way. It’s time to come to a new level of trusting your guy, your decisions; your second mind located in your stomach/solar plexus.

There’s a riddle in the middle of the month that needs to be unknotted. You’ll have to follow some twists and turns and rely on your gut instincts to have the best result in this situation.

Carry or meditate with yellow jasper this month. It will help you gain new friends or alliances. These folks are waiting to provide you with some information that may at first seem baffling, but that will be ultimately helpful. And be kind to yourself. If you haven’t read Colin Tipping’s Radical Forgiveness, it will help you turn everything on its head and take back your true vision of yourself and who you want to be. Ask yourself, “Am I living the childhood version of my dream for my life—and if so, does it still apply? Does it still make me happy?”

Pisces (February 20 – March 20) ~ Amazonite

Amazonite. Imagine the great female warriors of old adorning themselves with this beautiful stone, enjoying a day in the sand and sun, with the salt of the sea dried on their bronzed skin. You need a little beach vacation, Pisces, or just a rest day with an element of water in it. Maybe go and sit in a hot tub, or if you’re in Austin, head to Barton Springs or one of our many wonderful public spring-fed pools.

While you’re getting some sun and water, be sure to bring your amazonite with you. Meditate or carry it close. Allow it to show you the new world that’s waiting for you, in the depths. If you so choose, it is time to go through a time of rebirth in August AND into September. Take action to feel purified and relaxed. This may take some work, but it will have a good pay off. Now is a good time to clean out your home—the result will bring delight to everyone who comes in. If you’re single, this action will help bring you closer to successfully jumping back into the dating pool.

Dive in!

 Aries (March 21 – April 20) ~ Snowflake Obsidian

Aries, your impulsive nature is wonderfully represented in snowflake obsidian. Here, we have a peaceful battle between light and dark; the white snowflakes against a beautiful starry night. This month, take an evening walk and make an effort to go somewhere where you can see Jupiter and Venus hovering on the horizon.

Who can you ask for help with your current situation? Don’t feel like you need to resolve everything on your own. Even when we’re in a great place, we can benefit from the perspectives of others to bring us through. If things have been rough and you just want a listening ear—TELL your friend, your lover, your coworker that that’s what you need. It’s time to be more vocal about your needs and wants, Aries. No one can help make your dreams come true if they don’t know what those dreams are.

Carry or meditate with snowflake obsidian this month—or even watch a YouTube video of a quiet hike in the snow. Let the stone bring you into the harmony of everything around you.

Taurus: Aqua Aura ~ Gemini: Green Calcite  ~ Cancer: Red Jasper

Taurus: Aqua Aura ~ Gemini: Green Calcite ~ Cancer: Red Jasper

Taurus (April 21 – May 20) ~ Aqua Aura Quartz

Taurus, it’s time for you to take action and decide how to make life better for those around you. You have the alchemic powers of aqua aura quartz, which has been improved upon by man. You have the talent of bringing people together, whether it is through speech or finding the perfect breakfast taco, or making a signature dessert. It’s time to take on the mantle of matriarch/patriarch in your family, family of choice, or work group.

The great part is that if you haven’t done this before, you’ll start to enjoy it. If this is old hat—you may feel the need to retreat a little, to protect your own energy and interests. Remember to continue to take good care of yourself. Just because you’re great with people does not mean that they should be allowed to suck your energy or walk all over you. So, this is also a time to set up some good boundaries—it will make everyone happier—honest!

Carry and listen to your aqua aura. Ask it to put a bubble of energy around you (remember to have it go under your feet!) so that you can do the things that need to be done this month. You’re going to look back and be amazed at everything that will have passed in August, Taurus!

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) ~ Green Calcite

Gemini, it’s back to school time. It’s time to do all those things that got put off during the summer. Get your house in order, but more importantly, make and keep whatever medical appointments you have put off. And head out to a farmer’s market and buy some fresh corn, peaches, or whatever else is in season and looks great—and have a barbecue to enjoy those you love.

Finally, this is a great time to start to establish a new habit. How would you like to change? Do you want to get up early and walk the dog in the cool of the morning? Or vow to go on at least 3 dates that are set-ups by friends or family members? Or maybe you’ve always wanted to learn how to belly dance. Well, now is the time to start building those good habits that will take you into the Fall and beyond. Have a little conference with your green calcite. See what you and it think will make you feel healthy and abundant.

Cancer (June 21 – July 21) ~ Red Jasper

Cancers make the best friends. Some Cancerians are quiet, while others are the life of the party, but you always know just what your buddies need. There’s so much red jasper can bring to you this month, Cancer. You spend your time taking care of everyone else, and now it’s time for that great energy you put out to come back around to YOU!

Turn the tables. Share your passions with your friends. Make sure you go out and explore at least twice this month, and do something that brings you joy. In fact, it’d be even better if these were what Julia Cameron calls “artist dates.” Go by yourself. Choose an activity that inspires you. Is it exploring art galleries in the hip part of town? Or finally hiking on the “skyline to the sea” trail. Or maybe you’re the brave soul who goes out to dinner alone, choosing the trendiest restaurant on Eater so that you can savor the food without conversation.   Don’t wait until you’re old, or finally widowed to take that trip to Paris, or even sit out by the lake and people watch. Start collecting those joys now, like pearls on a string.

Use your red jasper to help you ground, center, and focus. You can carry it with you, meditate, or even ask it what’s up!

 

The stones of summer!   Crystals delight the eye and the soul.

The stones of summer! Crystals delight the eye and the soul.

Have a wonderful blackberry-filled August! ~Christine

Messages from Your Angels Horoscopes – June 2015

June's Message: Bethany

June’s Message: Bethany

Messages from Your Angels Horoscopes – June 2015 

It’s time to enjoy the Summer before things are official at the end of the month!  Get out and have a great time with family and friends.  Soak in the sunshine.  We’ve had so much stormy, rainy, snowy weather around North America that it’s time to get out and smell the flowers.  

Also note that we’re still in the middle of Mercury Retrograde in Gemini until June 11, 2015.  So, be kind to your loved ones and coworkers in your communications, and patient with your electronics if they’re seemingly misbehaving.  Also know that you can harness the energy in a powerful way, but it’s necessary to be thoughtful about your intended outcome before taking action.

Don’t forget to check out the rest of ChristinethePsychic.com for upcoming events and classes.  Want a private or small group class or consultation?  Contact me at ChristinethePsychic@gmail.com for details.

Love and Light, Christine

 

June 2015 Messages from Your Angels Horoscopes

The Messages from Your Angels deck is a 44-card oracle deck designed by Doreen Virtue.  If you’re interested in angels, or need some help form the Universe, try calling on the Angel who was channeled for your Sun sign this month.  The Angels can help, but you have to ask, and ask for your heart’s true desire.

 

June Message

June's Message: Bethany

June’s Message: Angel Bethany

Bethany reminds us that self-care is the way to self-preservation, not selfishness.  In taking good care of yourself, you honor yourself and your voice.  Our voices are the 5th chakra and this soft blue is the angels’ version of that light that is you, that is your voice.  If you feel like you’re being pressured to do something that’s not good for you or you’ve been taking on too much, use this mantra.  “Let me look at my calendar, and I’ll get back to you.”

Also know that you don’t have to hole up like a hermit to have good self care.  Do what feeds your soul.  Buy a bunch of hyacinths already!

 

 

June Sun Signs

 

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) ~ Angel Patience

Gemini: Angel Patience

Gemini: Angel Patience

Gemini, you’re grounded this month, connected to the great Earth Mother Gaia.  If you feel that connection slip, stand barefoot and imagine reviving that connection to Mother Earth and your root chakra at the base of your spine.

You are getting ready for great things!  It’s time to learn and to take in information.  Enjoy the process and know that it’s okay to move ahead when you’re ready from being a student to the professional in what drives you—maybe you’ve taken up cooking, or a new hobby, or even a new job.  Know that you’ll get the right information sent to you to move forward this month.  If you’re ready, you can move ahead beginning June 12th after Mercury Retrograde in Gemini is complete; or you can luxuriate in the new things you’re learning throughout the month.

Cancer (June 21 – July 21) ~ Angel Merlina

Cancer: Angel Merlina

Cancer: Angel Merlina

Hi Cancer!  You, like Gemini are ready for something new, something fun.  Merlin will help you find the solution when it seems like there is none available.  Take a little time to do due diligence and do your homework.  Get an expert opinion on your home taxes or anything finance-related by seeing your accountant or other professional.  The time is ripe. The time is fertile.  You just need that missing bit of information to get the prize.

Not sure where to find it?  If you’re looking for romance, change up where you look for a mate.  Try that speed dating event your Aunt Myrtle harps at you to attend, or go to a wine tasting with your best friend.  Find a fun place to people-watch and set up shop, and bring your lucky friend with you.

You’re ready for some magic!

Leo (July 22 – August 21) ~  Angel Omega

Leo: Angel Omega

Leo: Angel Omega

Leo, you’re on a high—Mercury retrograde cannot touch you this month.  Whatever it is that you’ve wanted and been striving for, now is the time to grab it.  All of the stars will seem to be in alignment.  And if you’re skeptical, watch Wayne Dyer’s “The Shift” — it’s time for some magic to happen.

Partnered with your success this month is a new attitude or new learning in your spiritual or religious life.  If you can accept this Shift, you’ll move faster and much more quickly towards your desires in the future.  It all adds up, little by little. Like the elusive unicorn, you will find fulfillment.

Enjoy the month, enjoy the high energy, and share it with those who are dear to you. Congratulations on your success.

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)  ~ Archangel Raphael

Virgo: Archangel Raphael

Virgo: Archangel Raphael

It’s time to reassess your health, diet, and fitness Virgo.  You’re being blessed with support from Archangel Raphael.  If you’ve put off that dentist, physical exam, mammogram, or eye appointment, go schedule it ASAP.  It’s time to put preventative measures in place to stay healthy.

Look around you for all of the ways your life might need healing.  Do you need to honor yourself with forgiveness of a person or situation?  In letting it go to the Angels, you allow your life to open up to get the life and love that you need.  If your heart hurts, share those emerges one last time and let them go.  Know that you did the best you could, and that you don’t have to hold on to things.  People will be judged and held to their karma regardless of whether you let yourself remain hurt.  Louise Hay’s book Heal Your Body is also a good resource for you this month.  It’s time for vibrant happiness, health, and love.  And Raphael is here to bring it to you!

Libra (September 22 – October 21) ~ Angel Adriana

Libra: Angel Adriana

Libra: Angel Adriana

What is your biggest hope, your biggest dream that you haven’t dared spoken aloud?  Or maybe you’ve talked about it to death and feel like the energy is dead and there’s no way through to your goal.

It’s time to make room for those dreams to come true.  You’re on the beginning of a new road.  In order to take you into realms of higher vibration where it’s possible for dreams to come true, try this simple exercise:  revisualization.  At the end of every day, go through and imagine the ideal outcome for any situation that you wish had gone differently.

For example, maybe you wish you had done a better job leading a meeting at work.  You were late and forgot your agenda, to boot.  Now—imagine yourself prepared for the meeting, with your agenda in hand, and getting to the room 5 minutes early. You chat with a friend or colleague, and your meeting stays on target.  People have thoughtful things to say and you’re able to end the meeting on time.

This can work in any part of your life, in any situation.  Like when you have a recurring nightmare, you can “reset” the energy so that it turns into a dream.  Call in Adriana as you do this exercise for an extra boost—she wants to help you, and let you know that you are divinely loved.

Scorpio (October 22 – November 22) ~ Angel Opal

Scorpio: Angel Opal

Scorpio: Angel Opal

If there’s any loved one, person, or pet that you’re concerned about, know that all is well.  Opal is really a comforting angel.  She offers her Motherhood to you to lean on, for support.  Sometimes it’s wonderful to just have a little help for a change.  Call on Opal and she’s at the fore, ready to assist.

Know that you may feel a little funny this month, Scorpio. You’ve gone through a lot of energy shift to clear out the old and negative energy.  Now, your chakras are gong to open and align in a more positive way.  Nurture yourself through this process, and if you feel like you need to see a medical professional, know that you will be supported.

Opal’s message is that, “All is well.”  It’s time to relax and check in with friends.  It’s time to remember that you’re loved.  If you want a new romance/to up the romance, be sure to let the other person do something kind for you.  You might need to lead by example, and enjoy making a home cooked meal, having a surprise picnic, or planning a special date.

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21) ~ Angel Shanti

Sagittarius: Angel Shanti

Sagittarius: Angel Shanti

Shanti is an Angel of rejuvenation, passion, and peace.  How to roll all these together in a life?  Your troubles are on their way out, so you should expect a positive resolution to problems that weigh on your mind.  Turn to the natural world for a sense of rejuvenation.  Walk a shelter dog, sit at the foot of a waterfall, take a swim.  Climb up to the top of Mount Bonnell and howl at the moon.  It’s time to start creating the rituals that give you a sense of closure and feel liberating.  Maybe it’s doing a big spring cleaning and donating excess items.

The point is, Sagittarius, you need to make room in your life for wonderful new things to come in.  If you have a big stack of books or magazines next to your bed, you’re telling the Angels you want a relationship with the books and not with a sweetie to fill the bed beside you.  It’s time to clean your surroundings, either mentally or physically and watch the changes come into your life.  And buying a lottery ticket after you finish Summer cleaning wouldn’t hurt, either!

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) ~ Angel Raye

Capricorn: Angel Raye

Capricorn: Angel Raye

Capricorn, Raye asks you to be aware of your roles in interactions with others through scanning your body.  If you’re not sure a situation will honor your self and your life situation—check your gut (aka solar plexus) and your throat (larynx/pharynx).  Tension in either of these two places is an indicator that things are not actually going the way you want.

The good news is, by being aware, you’re changing what will come in.  You can shuck off any role you’ve taken on and being anew.

If you’re working on your physical body this month, do what you can to nurture it—go out each morning and do a “sun salutation” where you hold up your arms to the rising sun.  Take in that yogic energy.  And know, that everything will happen in the right time, and in the right season.

Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) ~ Angel Serephina

Aquarius: Angel Seraphina

Aquarius: Angel Seraphina

Serephina is full of sparkle, of glowing pink light.  There’s no angel that’s more full of love and giddiness, but in a stable, positive way.  If you want a mate or to extend your family (or family of choice), now is the time to get your fertility checked out, or look at foster care sites, or adopt a pet from your local Humane society.

You have so much love in your heart that it could just burst!  Please remember to share this special gift by radiating that love you have for your family or friends to the world.  You can bring up the vibration of the world with your positive thoughts and actions.

If you’re single, this is the right season to start looking for a mate.  Go and get a great haircut, a new outfit, and you’ll be absolutely irresistible!  If you’re feeling scared, down, or frustrated by this process of enlarging your tribe, know that you have angel’s wings upon your back. It is time.  Let go of your pre-conceived notions and let the Angels surprise you.

Pisces (February 20 – March 20) ~ Angel Daniel

Pisces: Angel Daniel

Pisces: Angel Daniel

This month it’s time to balance your heart and your spirit, Pisces.  Take a little time to brainstorm how you’d like that to come about.  You could make a pros and cons list, or even SWOT it.  Or make a collage. There’s no wrong way to do it with Daniel at your back.

This is a month of new unions, new relationships, and confirmation of established ones.  Daniel is the Angel of Marriage.  Call on him for assistance in your romantic relationships.  He is a reminder that you don’t have to walk alone here on earth.  You’re loved and deserve to be united with one of your soul mates while you’re here on this hurting ball of carbon called Earth.

 

Aries (March 21 – April 20) ~ Angel Yvonne

Aries: Angel Yvonne

Aries: Angel Yvonne

You’re being supported by the powerful mother energy of Yvonne this month, Aries.  It’s time to embrace your gentle side.  Yvonne will bring any pets or even birds and squirrels in your yard in closer alignment with you.  Expect a neighborhood cat to approach you if you take a daily walk.

This month, let your soft side show.  If there’s a situation that’s been bothering you, know that you have the divine love and assistance of Yvonne to help you through it.  It’s okay to feel afraid or vulnerable, especially as you’re trying on new roles—whether that be at home as a stepparent or grandparent, or at work dealing with new duties.

Think about if there’s a kinder, gentler way to interact with others, especially in the first third of the month while Mercury Retrograde is still in effect.   You’re the one who is going to bring up the energy of those around you—you are the leader, leading by example.  Know that you will be followed in how you do things, how you live in the world—by your spouse, your kids, your family, or even your coworkers.  So you have the chance to make a major shift in the energy around you, all without having to do that spring cleaning.  Lucky Aries!

Taurus (April 21 – May 20) ~ Angel Bridgette

Taurus: Angel Bridgette

Taurus: Angel Bridgette

This June, Bridgette is your supporting angel, Taurus.  Be sure to call on her for anything you would like to make real.  Honor your voice this month and don’t tamp down those dreams of yours.   Give your voice room to take root and grow, just like you would a tree.

Be sure to think through any situation where you’ll be cutting off relationships this month.  Make sure that you don’t get lost in your own head and instead turn to a loved one or friend for support as you navigate the waters ahead.  Know that Bridgette is holding you, supporting you, in the light.  It’s time that you remembered that YOU are filled with divine, joyous LIGHT!

 

Wishing you the happiest of Junes filled with days of weddings, graduations, passion, and friendship!

The Italian Minchiate Deck  - May 2013 Horoscopes.

The Italian Minchiate Deck  – May 2013 Horoscopes.

The Minchiate Tarot varies from a regular Tarot deck because it has 97 cards, not 84.  The extra cards are added to the Major Arcana. It includes the 12 astrological signs, the 4 elements, and 4 virtues, among others.  The deck dates back to 18th Century Italy. The cards are considered to have a light side and a dark side, depending on the situation.

Enjoy May Day, and have a wonderful month as we turn towards the Light!

Love and Light, Christine

May 2015 Minchiate Tarot Horoscopes

May Message: Queen of Wands

May's Card: Queen of Wands

May’s Card: Queen of Wands

Like Claire Fraser from Outlander, the Queen of Wands both protects herself and shows her riches by the clouds and draping of voluminous fabric that surrounds her.  She is the Queen of Luxury – the Luxury of knowing what it is that you want.  She represents that burning passion within all of us, expressed in unusual ways.  She looks regal and carries herself with ease, yet may become feral in a moment if threatened. We’re at the cusp of the shifting seasons from cold to warm, from darkness to light.  It’s time to be honest with ourselves about the pros and cons of our deepest wishes.

May Sun Signs

Taurus: Prudence ~ Gemini: The Lovers ~ Cancer: 4 of Swords

Taurus: Prudence ~ Gemini: The Lovers ~ Cancer: 4 of Swords

Taurus (April 21 – May 20) ~ Key XVII: Prudence

Prudence sometimes takes things way to seriously.  In this card, she controls a snake, representing spiritual and medical knowledge, but also being able to see the world as a magical place.  In her golden mirror, she can put a glamour over herself to gain anything she wants.  When faced with such large amounts of power, Taurus, it is you who decide which face you will show to the world.  Sometimes we just want to be admired, other times we just want to get ahead.  Be prudent—it’s better to be your true self at work, or in relationships and let the chips fall where they may.  the glamour will get you everywhere you’d like—but you ultimately have more power and will be more successful in love if you be yourself.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) ~ Key V: The Lovers 

Gemini, have you asked Cupid to shoot his bow?  Are you ready for a proposal or another big life event with your partner?  Now is the time to move forward in romantic relationships whether you are partnered or not.  Know that in order to get what you want in a relationship, you must be precise.  Know your deal breakers, know your must haves versus “would like to haves.”  Be careful. Take action, but Cupid shoot his bow for you—if you force the issue, you’ll be wondering for years if this is really the right person.  Use the Law of Attraction to bring your loved one closer—or even a best friend, if that’s what you need.  Let harmony in your relationships surround you—and if there’s issues at work, get a piece of jasper in your favorite color for your desk.

Cancer (June 21 – July 21) ~ 4 of Swords

Thought, balance, stability.  Cancer, this is your charge for the month.  It’s time to bone up on information in order to make the right decisions in the month ahead.  While this might sound a little lonely—take hope: you are not alone.  The mystical unicorn helps you keep your eyes on the prize and your wishes pure. Know that you are being supported from the other side.  This is a good time to research colleges or educational opportunities for yourself or your children.

 

 Leo: Ace of Swords  ~ Virgo: Death ~ Libra: 9 of Swords

Leo: Ace of Swords  ~ Virgo: Death ~ Libra: 9 of Swords

Leo (July 22 – August 21) ~ Ace of Swords

Spirit is supporting you in a new endeavor that defies gravity.  The ribbons tied to your sword float, mid-air, as does your crown of victory.  As long as you think things through before making your moves, you’re in for a lot of positive change this month.  This is a good time for you to work on the Law of Attraction to manifest your desires, as they will appear more quickly that you may expect.  The barriers that held you back are down!  It’s time to move ahead, especially when it comes to training, leadership, or job opportunities.  Your new way of thought will also bring your friends (old or new) closer to you so that you can enjoy this time, Leo.

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)  ~ Key XIII: Death

It’s time for a change.  For many, it’s getting to be the end of the school year; for others the seasons are finally starting to shift so that the cold weather remains at bay.  If you could erase some of the worst events in your life in the past year and start over, what would you do?  It’s time to clear out anyone or anything that brings in negativity or brings you down.  By having a controlled fire, you pave the way for a fantastic summer by getting rid of the old and making way for the new.  Now is a great time to clean out your closet, old books, files, whatever.  Make room for the new to come in and play.  Start dreaming so you know what to keep.

Libra (September 22 – October 21) ~ 9 of Swords

This is a time for celebration.  This is the end of a long road paved with stones of your hard work, toil, labors.  It’s time to appreciate what you’ve accomplished and not worry about overthinking the future.  June will be a clean slate for you—the problems that have poked and prodded at you—nibbling like ducks—they are ready to go on their merry way!  If you feel burdened with any problems right now, this is the month to step away form it all and take a break form your worries, even if just for a weekend.  Change your environment and give yourself a break.  This will allow new energy in to change your finances or your relationships—or both.

Scorpio: Aquarius (Yes, that's correct!) ~ Sagittarius: The Sun ~ Capricorn: Temperance

Scorpio: Aquarius (Yes, that’s correct!) ~ Sagittarius: The Sun ~ Capricorn: Temperance

Scorpio (October 22 – November 22) ~ Key XXXII: Aquarius

It’s funny that your are showing up as Aquarius this month, Scorpio!  What can you learn from Aquarius?  There are a couple of things that will help you.  First of all—if you’re in a relationship with or have a family member that is an Aquarius, it’s time to pay more attention to that relationship—invest in it.   Second, this is the month where you finally have the big picture.  You’ve been working on your home life and making peace with your family scars. You’re getting ready to shift your beliefs and energy around the stories you tell about yourself.  It’s time to grow flowers instead of cacti, because now you are strong enough to do so.  If you’re getting over a broken heart over a loved one or another negative situation, know that you will be given, in abundance, the support for a new start.  Reach out to family and friends for support—and sell them your new version of yourself—they are buying.  You will gain peace and contentment.

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21) ~ Key XXXVIII: The Sun

You know that old Beatles’ tune, “Here comes the sun..and I say, it’s all right.”  It feels like years since you’ve been here.  In the Minchiate, the Sun provides clarity.  You will know the true intentions of those around you—at work, at home, in the community, and in your love life.  This is mostly great—except everyone wants a piece of you!  If you want to feel the joy of the sun, choose your boundaries. Otherwise others will leave you feeling taken advantage of.  Be clear about when you are willing to participate or give and when you cannot.  If you’re not comfortable with that—stall.  Tell the person that you need to think and will get back to them.  (Don’t end up like the woman on this card, who is having to dissuade her partner from a midday, outdoor romp in the grass…Choose. Consciously Choose.)

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) ~ Key VI: Temperance

Ah, Capricorn—you always are in need of more fun. You have this skill of discernment. Of focus. Of connections. Of seeing what others do not or can not. Instead of using up all of your focus at work, it’s time to use your mad skills to bring joy into your life.  What will it be?  A couple’s salsa class?  Braving a speed dating night with your BFF?  Planning a vacation on a tropical island?  Or having a barbecue surrounded by friends and learning to make a brisket from scratch?  It’s time to feed your joy, Capricorn.  You’ve used your concentration for the Man, now use some of it for yourself!  You deserve it.

Aquarius: Queen of Coins  ~ Pisces: 5 of Cups ~ Aries: Fire

Aquarius: Queen of Coins  ~ Pisces: 5 of Cups ~ Aries: Fire

Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) ~ Queen of Coins (Pentacles)

Although your emotions swirl around you, Aquarius, you are coming to a new understanding and appreciation of money and what it brings.  Instead of setting money on a pedestal above you, you now know how to work in partnership with it. You will discover additional information, if needed, that will assist you or your children in successfully moving along their chosen career path—especially if involved in creative careers or entrepreneurship.  If you’re happy where you are, career-wise, take a little time to see if there’s a way you can put an entrepreneurial twist on your work to change the way you’ve been doing things, and to reach your intended audience. Know that you will she enough. You will be sustained.  If you’re not there yet, know it’s coming one day at a time, and that you will have enough to share with those around you, to give back part of the love and support you’ve received form those around you.  If you can mentor someone, so much the better.

Pisces (Separate 20th – March 20) ~ 5 of Cups

Five beautiful urns sit before you—which will you choose?  How do you know what’s under their lids? To move forward din your romantic life and close relationships, it’s time to look at how you view yourself when you’re in a relationship. Do you consider yourself a victim?  Do you consider yourself to be the strong one?  Or the secure one?  Or, do you always rescue the person in distress.  Now is the time to assess, to stop crying vow spilled milk. You will be given the keys to rapid emotional growth and liberation.  It can’t be done alone.  You’ll need to assess yourself and then check with a few people you trust to see if how you view yourself and your attitudes about relationships.  So many beautiful souls try to sabotage their love relationships because they are afraid of being hurt—or are even scared they won’t know what to do with success.  Know that you are worthy of love, and that you will find love—whether you want to or not!  Once you stop spilling milk (and/or crying over it), you can refill these milk urns with honey pots and attract a wonderful, warm mate.

 Aries (March 21 – April 20) ~ Key XX: Fire

Aries, your card shows an animal standing within a bonfire, immune to its flames.  You often have a headstrong nature, Aries.  It can save yourself and those around you from a terrible situation, it can guide you to your true passions and dreams—or, it can be you over reacting and getting hot-headed!  Notice the gaze of the animal in the flames  — s/he is at peace with the situation.  You are a powerful agent for change, and those around you will often follow.  It’s time to make the decisions that will feed your passions and joys—but keep this in balance with your role of leader.  What you do, others will follow.  Which of your passions do you want to leave behind as your legacy?  Your teaching or mentoring?  A large joyful family and numerous descendants?  A cleaner environment?  That book you’ve always been meaning to write?  What will feed you while you watch the flames clean out all the old, providing you with new opportunities across the spectrum.  Especially in love, family, career.

Sending May Flowers, Joy, & Light to You and Your Guides!
