Today, the sun moves into Gemini. An air sign which is represented by The Lovers in the Major Arcana. One of the more popular cards in the deck, The Lovers represents, balance, unification, clear communication, decisions and connections on all levels (within ourselves, with other people, as well as our connection to Source, God/Goddess, Universe, Divine, etc.)
Today’s message:
The Lovers, as it is the next card that comes after The Hierophant, is a reminder to be mindful of our internal moral compass. Are you considering all the long term effects of a current decision? Is there something tempting that is being presented to you that looks good on the surface, or may appear be a shortcut to something that you have been wanting to achieve, but is there a caveat attached that requires you to compromise your personal values or integrity in some way?
The Lovers encourages you to bring into balance the information received from both the conscious mind and the heart. But ultimately, your heart will lead the way. What FEELS right to you? Stay solid in your truth. Take the “high road”. Although it appears to be the more challenging path now, it pays off with big dividends later.
“The human heart feels things the eyes cannot see, and knows what the mind cannot understand.” Robert Valett
We have a powerful Super Full Moon in Scorpio tonight! You may have already been feeling it’s effects as full moon energy tends to culminate for about 3 days beforehand. Scorpio is a sign of analyzing, releasing and transformation, and its element is fixed water. The moon’s element is also water, so we may be feeling more psychically sensitive right now. It is important to be aware of your own emotions as well as what is going on with the people around you. We may inadvertently pick up on the energies of other people and internalize them, not realizing that they are not ours.
We can attune to this Scorpio full moon energy to release subconscious attachments that may have served their purpose in the past, but no longer “fit” us in the present. I picture these energies like saran wrap “sticking” on our energetic body that may have us feeling anxious and/or restricted in some way. Use the powerful frequencies of this full moon to cleanse your physical and energetic body, which will allow you to better connect with yourself. Clearing the layers to uncover your true potential.
This is the perfect moon to work with the element of water. If you are able, prepare a cleansing spiritual bath! Include epsom salt, crystals, essential oils, sea salt, candles, incense and time where you will not be disturbed (extremely important!) to allow yourself to tune in and go deep. To acknowledge what it is that you feel may be holding you back at the present time, and that you are now ready to let go of. You may even want to write down what this is for you, meditate on it, and then do a releasing ritual to let it go.
Some of these Scorpionic energies are not comfortable! In the tarot, Scorpio is represented by the Death card. Facing death is never easy. And death is not pretty. However, death and rebirth is a part of life. You may find some unanticipated aspects come up for you during this time. Some of which you may not even know were there! Or perhaps you thought they have already been dealt with and done. During your meditation, do not deny what comes up, even though it may be uncomfortable or painful. Dive in, allow yourself to feel, explore, understand what they are and why they have come up. Are these deep emotional aspects affecting your life now? Are they showing up as “triggers” to let you know that they are there, waiting for you to acknowledge them so they can be released? It’s okay, cry, get upset, FEEL it, know it. Surrender to it. Ask for help from God, Source, your higher self, angels, guides, whomever who connect with. Let those emotions flow! This is why making sure you have time alone is important. Some of these energies can get chaotic on an internal level. It’s deeply personal.
I received the image of the Ace of Cups in the Tarot just now as I am writing this. Allowing one’s cup to overflow and release these internal aspects to allow the gift of divine healing to flow in. This is why self-care is so important under this Scorpio Full Moon energy. Scorpionic transformation is not easy. Wrap yourself up in compassion and love.
You will find once these aspects have been examined on such a deep, powerful level, they soon start to transition through. You have gone through the Scorpio underworld and now, you are walking through the light at the end of the tunnel at this particular phase in your life. You realize the battles you have been up against, were internal and not necessarily external. You are different now. Transformed. You have a deep understanding and much more compassion for yourself and others and a new inner wisdom that you did not have before. This is the experience of Scorpio transformation that you may have read about, but never experienced. Until now.
Scorpio goes deep. Really deep!

Tonight, the new moon is in the sign of Aries! This is the first of the twelve zodiac signs. Aries embodies the energy of action, passion, vision, inspiration, leadership, focus, health, physical activity, taking action on what aligns with your intentions and overcoming challenges, just to name a few. Aries is a self-starter, the motivation comes from within, not from others.
This new moon is a perfect time to set goals for the upcoming year. What is it that you want to accomplish? Plant the seeds of your intentions during this Aries new moon. The other planetary alignments during this time are very positive. The Universe will support you, but it will not interfere with your free will. It is up to you to take action on your intention. When you do this, your frequency aligns accordingly, and things will begin to fall into place.
Aries is a fiery, independent athlete. Focus on physical self-care during this new moon cycle. Rejuvenate yourself with relaxing baths, healthy food, working with essential oils, getting enough rest, exercise, time outdoors, and minimizing the best you can negative influences. And this includes being mindful of what you say to yourself! We tend to be our own worst critic. This Aries new moon is imbuing us with the energies of courage and confidence, to wave off any self-doubt. As well as the physical energy to pursue what it is that we are passionate about! But you must do your part as well!

Candle Colors: Red, white, pink
Crystals: Garnet, ruby, red jasper, carnelian, bloodstone, fire agate, clear or white quartz, citrine, black onyx, rose quartz.
Herbs: Cinnamon, sage, pepper, dried rose petals, basil.
Tarot Cards: The Emperor, Ace of Wands, Four of Wands
Aries motto: “I am”. A vision board is a wonderful idea! See yourself as already having what it is you are wanting to achieve. This is also a good time for you to clear out that closet, do spring cleaning to freshen up your space, etc. Minimize the clutter. Clear out your space to give these new intentions room to manifest!
This beautiful Queen embodies the signs of Pisces and Aries. She is “feminine fire”. The date of the Spring Equinox falls within her realm. Symbolic of the sun and a love of nature, one notices the new sprigs of growth on the wand that she holds in her right hand and the sunflower in her left. Creativity and magic thrive under this Queen’s influence. Her appearance in a reading indicates you have the strength as well as the creativity to pursue your goals. Especially goals that involve pursuits of not only financial abundance, but of emotional fulfillment as well. Good things just seem to “happen” around her. She can be a message for you to step out of your comfort zone and network. There’s just something about her that cannot be explained. Embody her archetype when you want to exude an air of confidence and charisma, with the magic of feminine “flair”. This magnetic combination will draw positive opportunities and beneficial people to you. Especially during “Her time” of the months of March and April.
The new moon on February 11, 2021 is significant as there is a stellium of planets in the sign of Aquarius. We have the Sun and Moon, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn all in Aquarius! Wow! Mercury is in retrograde at this time until February 20th, which also adds some interesting energy to the mix.
I decided to pull some tarot cards to delve into these energies a little bit more to gain some collective insights on this planetary event to relay some of the message that I received to you. I do want to state here that this is my own style of intuitive reading for this planetary occurrence, and I am by no means an astrologist!
We will start with the sun and the new moon. The cards associated with the sun and moon’s placement for this new moon, is the seven of swords. When I look at these cards, I received the message of many of you wanting to move forward with unbridled enthusiasm. Yes, that is the exact term that I was given LOL! Collectively, with all the events that have occurred we are feeling the energy of Aquarius very strongly. Ready to burst forward, with new ideas and fresh energy. To come back out into the sun (symbolically and literally), to pursue our happiness.
The solitary aspect of the events of 2020 which for some of you, may have seeped into the beginning of 2021, gave many of you the time to think about your home, your goals, your dreams, your career, your relationships, etc. and analyze them very closely. You have literally been “stewing” in your own energy and in the energy of those close to you for a little over a year now.
Most of you have reached some definite conclusions about how you want to move forward at this point. For example, some of you may have drafted a business plan. To plant the seeds to turn something that you love to do into a lucrative business idea, or in a more general sense, you may have decided to focus on the pursuit of a new goal that adds a sense of enrichment to your life. The Sun is one of the “happiest” cards in the deck and can indicate these things. But with the moon and the underlying energies of the Seven of Swords card, this can indicate that you may not have all the facts yet and/or your perception may be off. Before proceeding, it is a good idea to review contracts and agreements a few times to ensure that you understand it 100% correctly. For some of you, it would be advisable to seek professional counsel, such as an attorney, before entering into any agreements. Many professional astrologists, recommend refraining from signing contracts if at all possible, during a Mercury Retrograde. As during this time, Mercury can be a little tricky. There is a possibility of errors and omissions being a factor which can result in an unexpected circumstance popping up later on.
Be particularly aware of what you say in the context of friendships and social networks. During a Mercury retrograde, people may misconstrue your words. It is advisable to be prudent on social media until after Mercury goes back direct on the 20th. But this is good advice any time, not just during Mercury Retrograde.
I also see that some of you are taking advantage of these energies to put distance between yourself and any old habits or patterns that may have held you back in the past. Others around you see this change and are perceiving you in a new light! This new moon for some of you will be the beginning of your embracing a new way of accomplishing things. The Sun, Seven of Swords and The Moon can indicate an out of the box mindset when it comes to solving problems or can indicate the formation of new and fresh ideas.
Mercury, Venus and Jupiter are all in the energy of the Six of Swords for the new moon. The Six of Swords, is a card of moving forward. I really like this card in the context of these planetary energies. It indicates new beginnings, expansion, minimizing attachments to materialism, and freedom of choice in one’s decisions. It’s also a card of optimism, which is a Jupiter energy. The characters in this card have faith that there is a better future up ahead waiting for them.
Venus is beneficial here, because I feel her energy as embodied in the Six of Swords, is one of forgiveness and cooperation. But also, of practicality and self-realization. As in having realistic expectations. Venus rules the sign of Taurus, a down to earth sign. Her advice in the Six of Swords is take what is necessary and leave the rest behind. The boat here only has so much room in it. In the context of mental energy, some of you may make the decision to move on from something, or perhaps you may need to consider doing this for your own healing, physical well-being and/or financial stability.
The Six of Swords can also indicate someone literally moving to a new location, whether this is a new home, career, etc. With Mercury, Venus and Jupiter all having energetic influence in this card during this new moon, it would appear that there are a lot of opportunities waiting for you there. Good for you!
A message for others of you is that with all these major planets in one house, on one side of the zodiac wheel, you may find it challenging to see the other side of a viewpoint or perspective. Embrace that Aquarian energy! Keep your mind open to explore the new possibilities up ahead. Aquarian energy represents new trends, technology, learning, exploring different cultures, community activities, sharing aspects of yourself to benefit others, learning a new language and even dietary changes, for example transitioning to a healthier, lighter diet. These are all possibilities of this energy if you are open to it.
The last energy I will touch on is Saturn at 6 degrees in Aquarius, which is represented by the Five of Swords. Saturn is a planet of law, order, limitations, karma, discipline and challenges to name just a few of its traits. As embodied in the Five of Swords, I think this is Saturn telling us to be mindful of the fact that we are responsible for our words and actions. Overindulgence and/or impulsive behavior is a possibility with all these strong, concentrated planetary energies affecting us. Keep a handle on your emotions and finances during this new moon cycle!
All in all, I do feel these energies are beneficial. I myself am feeling the extra energy boost and I love it! My clients are utilizing these energies in a positive way by taking personal responsibility for themselves. I am seeing people making changes in their life, by first looking at themselves, then their environment and other people with a sense of objectivity. You may very well be doing this as well. I am seeing some amazing life and relationship transformations at this time!
With this significant new moon, some of you may want to consider working with this energy in the form of a meditation or just quiet contemplation. If you enjoy baths, you could incorporate a spiritual bath with Epsom salt, a few candles and essential oils. Blue or white candles would be a nice touch to help you connect with the new moon in Aquarius. You may want to consider purchasing a seven day candle in one of these colors, to give yourself a few days to work with this energy and maybe write down your thoughts in a journal.
Take a moment, relax and choose a feather that resonates with you. Each divine feather oracle and tarot cards has a unique message from Spirit to help guide you as you travel on your life’s path.
OK let’s get started!
Divine Feather #1 / Heron
Message: Let go of convention and follow your unique path.
The three tarot cards that came out for this message are King of Wands, Eight of Wands and Strength.
So, the Heron is a large, mostly solitary bird. This bird is known for wading in shallow pools of water and snatching small prey for its meals. Symbolically, the Heron is a message to be ready to react quickly to opportunities, and be confident in your own path. It may be time for you to go your own way. You might have a unique talent or skill, and the “conventional” way of doing things, or that 9-5 job, may not be the path for you at this time. The Heron along with the eight of wands tarot card below it, is a message from Spirit to be ready! We will touch more on that later on.
So right away, I noticed that we have two “eights” in this reading. The number eight is considered a “Divine” number as it denotes “infinity” and the balance between the spiritual and physical world. It also indicates that you are close to a completion of a cycle or phase. Or that what it is you have been wanting to achieve is very close to its conclusion.
I am compelled to mention that the two eights add up to the number 16 which is The Tower. This is a card of a sudden circumstance that completely tears down something to make way for something better. Some people freak out at The Tower, but this card can also indicate a new perspective or a complete change of direction in one’s life. The number 16 breaks down to the number 7 which is The Chariot. This is a card of getting oneself together and moving forward. That being said, let’s move on.
So, sometimes when we have wanted something or worked towards something for so long, when it is almost here, when we can actually see that it is about to happen for us, we get a little nervous. We ask ourselves, could this really be happening? And we may freak out a little bit. Spirit says to embrace the message of the Strength card here. Calm those anxious feelings and know you are ready for this and yes, you deserve it too!
As my eye goes to the King of Wands, this is a fiery, creative, inspirational leader. A combination of the signs of Cancer and Leo, this King embodies the saying “he has the heart of a lion”. Brave, loyal and true, Spirit is telling me that this is you! This King would definitely fit the bill as an unconventional leader and a sign of success. Look at this image, he looks as if he is ready to rise up from the throne at any moment! It’s as if he can hardly contain himself! (I want to interject here that when I say he or she in reference to the cards, I am referring to “energies” and not gender. Male or female, we embody all the energies of the tarot at any given time).
In this reading, I am getting the impression that you have either mastered or are currently mastering a creative pursuit or something you are passionate about. This can be in business, career, personal empowerment, artistic endeavor, love, you name it!
Behind this powerful energetic King, we have the eight of wands, of which are moving quickly in the direction of Strength, the other “eight” card. The message I received, is that you have what it takes to succeed! But perhaps there are some doubts, or insecurities that may need to be overcome for you to fully embrace the King of Wands energetic fire. But since this card is upright, I think you probably already have a pretty good handle on this. You may get a few jitters. Just know this is normal.
There is a lot of fire energy here. A quick message for some of you is that you may want to keep some antacids, tums, etc. on hand if you are prone to digestive upsets or heartburn.
The eight of wands can also indicate that a form of communication, an opportunity and/or synchronicities are heading your way. For some of you, this may indicate that you hear back from an opportunity that you applied for in November or December of 2020, or this could be an endeavor that may have been put on hold late last year, and it is now picking back up. This is not for everyone, just a few specifics that came through.
I am getting the feeling that things will move quickly once it gets started so be ready! Just like the Heron, keep your eyes and ears open. This opportunity may require a move or a change in lifestyle. Remember, you have the heart of a lion. You know what you want and will easily overcome any challenges should they come up. You will quickly realize that you are “born for this role” so to speak.
Spirit says to show your talents, this is your time to shine! As I glance at Strength again, I got the message that perhaps in the past you may have dulled your shine, or maybe you made yourself “small” to fit in to a group of people or a situation. Or perhaps you did not get the credit for your work which may even have caused you to be passed over for promotions and/or pay raises. In a relationship, you may have felt or are feeling like you are or were living below your potential.
Those times are about to be over!
With three “fire energy” cards in this reading, Spirit is coming in strong! Your message is that this new opportunity, whatever this is for you, a promotion, career change, romance, a new business, etc. This will give you the chance to showcase your talents and be appreciated for them! You could very well be moving into a leadership position or maybe you are going to own your own business. Or it could even indicate that you will feel much more in control of your life. This new endeavor may also involve traveling, once things begin to open up again. If you resonate with this reading, it is recommended that you prepare accordingly. So that when the opportunity arises, you will be ready to seize it.
Divine Feather #2 / Duck
Message: Find comfort and balance in simple ways. You have support all around you.
The duck is not a complicated bird. It enjoys the water, grabs bits of food when it is hungry, and basks in the sun on land while it preens its feathers. It is a social bird too, hanging out with its flockmates that provide community interaction as well as protection from predators. Ducks can also fly, and often will return to the spaces where they feel safe and comfortable. This card is a message for you to consider your surroundings and for some of you is a message to connect or re-connect with people or circumstances that put you more at ease.
The message from Spirit in this reading is that you may be making things too complicated in your life. Overthinking and concerning yourself with situations that may not even be necessarily within your control or your responsibility, can complicate your mental body, and thus can cause you to feel stress. When you feel this way, you forget that there are people around you that do care, and also that your guides and angels are always present supporting you as well. Just like the duck, it is a good idea to slow down and re-connect to what is “real” in your life once in a while!
As I look at the tarot cards, I noticed The Emperor underneath the duck card. This carries home Spirit’s message to you that you are supported. Even if you may not feel this way at the moment, The Emperor in this position is a strong message that you have some powerful energies looking out for you!
You may have seen signs of this. For example, you may have applied for a job and not gotten it, only to hire in at company that was a better fit. Others of you may have received or will be receiving money that you were not expecting. Or maybe that new business is starting to make a profit. You may even be seeing messages in the form of repeating numbers or synchronicities. Or maybe a romantic partner broke up with you and you were heartbroken, but then you found out some information about them and you now realize that you dodged a bullet!
As I look at the Ace of Pentacles, I am receiving a message that a new beginning is in the works for you. Spirit wants to tell you that you need to be patient (I know we all hate to hear that LOL). But it does take time for energies from the ethers to manifest into the physical. But it is definitely taking form, as indicated by this card..
The Queen of Cups may be someone of a warm supporting nature is willing to help you. Or someone of these qualities is around you or is going to be. The Emperor with the Queen of Cups is a powerful combination of fiery drive, motivation and self-confidence, with the positive aspects of the feminine. Nurturing, introspective, loving and warm. Do you know people that have these qualities?
If you do, Spirit is saying to spend some time with them or perhaps reconnect with people that you know that have these traits. It will be immensely helpful to you at this time. Perhaps this is even you and your partner!
For others of you, these three cards are a message from Spirit for you to pull your energies “in” so to speak. Focus on your reality. If you have a project or endeavor that you are looking to start, now would be a good time to focus on getting the ball rolling.
These three cards can indicate a possible pregnancy for some of you. If you have been trying for a while, Spirit says that you may be putting too much pressure on yourselves. Let go a bit and enjoy the pleasures of your partner. Cuddle, laugh, have some fun! Get back to the basics, and let nature take its course! Valentines Day is coming up, plan something special.
For some of you that may be going through a difficult time, know that better times are definitely up ahead! The Emperor and the Queen of Cups balance each other very nicely. Spirit tells me this is you coming back into balance within yourself. Or you have a balanced perspective regarding your life or a situation. This leads to a new opportunity for you!
I also get the impression of somebody downsizing here. In a good way. Clearing out the clutter, clearing out people in your life that drain you (emotionally and/or maybe financially), paying off bills, etc. Really embracing the responsibility of The Emperor by taking care of what needs to be done with the emotionally stability of the Queen of Cups. In other words you are taking the steps necessary to simplify your life for your own emotional well being. Good for you! If you are older parents, some of you may have downsized your living space so that no one will be tempted to move back in! (laugh).
If you are resonating with this reading, Spirit is saying to you welcome warm people, circumstances and surroundings in your life that offer you a sense of ease and support. Trust how you feel and take decisive action to let go of what is not in alignment with this goal. Duck says this is easier than you think. Don’t make things more complicated than they really are.
Divine Feather #3 / Parrot
Message: Let go of others thoughts and opinions. It is time to embrace who you really are.
The parrot is a brightly feathered, exotic bird. A unique quality of parrots, is that they are one of the animals on earth that can trained to communicate with humans in our own language. They learn our words through repetition and training. Let’s not forget though, this human language is not the native language of the parrot. It is adjusting itself to fit into its environment. In other words, the parrot is speaking in a voice that is not its own. In this reading, parrot is reminding you to honor your own voice. So often we place importance on what others think of us, or are overly concerned about what they will say, etc. Forgetting that these are false truths. For everyone sees the world through their own perception.
Is there is something you want to pursue that shakes up the “status quo” in your life? Others may not be too happy about it or maybe they don’t understand it. I get the impression that the five of wands energy in this reading, is a result of inner conflict that you are feeling about it. But here’s the thing, no one can please everyone all of the time. It is better to live your truth and express your individual divine light. It is important to remember, that people judge us based on THEIR life experiences, their upbringing, and even their own insecurities. They may have given you well-meaning advice, regarding this situation, but it was not necessarily correct for YOU.
The three of wands is a card of starting something new. Three is a number of creation. Something has begun to manifest here, and at this point there is no turning back. Look at how the character in the card is looking ahead, envisioning his future. What are you building? A new career, home, a dream business, a new relationship? A new life? Self-worth?
The Ace of Cups indicates that this is something emotionally fulfilling. Or perhaps you may feel that you are being divinely guided here. I get the feeling that for some of you, you may be saying, “I can’t explain it, it’s just something I have to do”. If you are seeing repeating numbers pay attention to what your thoughts were when you saw them. This is your spirit guides communicating with you.
I find it interesting that the five of wands is the card that is standing between the three of wands and the Ace of Cups. Inner conflict, input from others, or perhaps a circumstance is standing between you and your dreams or goals at the moment. But this will not be for long. You will quickly get these wands organized. The energies are in motion and you’ve got your eye on the prize!
The advice I am receiving from Spirit is to keep moving forward. Now is not the time to discuss whatever this is with other people. They may put a damper on your enthusiasm. Some people have their own insecurities about success or are envious of others that enjoy their life. These types of people feel more comfortable when they have others around them that mirror these perceptions. Because it confirms what they believe. Some people may unknowingly or knowingly start trouble in your life to try to distract you. That is where the saying “misery loves company” comes from. Others may offer well-meaning advice, but it may cause confusion for you. Spirit’s advice here is if necessary be like the parrot with them. Tell them what they want to hear, and you keep doing you! Keep growing, keep building and you will see that the five of wands energy becomes less and less as you yourself become more and more.
Spirit wants to remind you that this is your life. Note that the cards on either side of the five of wands are solitary energies. Trust yourself. Back away from other people’s criticisms and/or advice that you feel is not right for you. Understand it for what it is. It is about them not you. Yes, you have the power here. The Ace of Cups is your message that the key to acquiring what you seek, is to acknowledge the love you have for yourself. When you love yourself, your divinity from within, radiates outward into the world. You will see this in action as this self-love manifests into the positive future that you are envisioning.
If you are resonating with this reading. Spirit’s message to you is to honor you by loving yourself. Keep in mind that at this time, people around you may not understand you, or the changes you are implementing in your life. Some may even get upset. And that is okay, they have a right to feel the way they do just as you do. Save yourself unnecessary conflict and/or negativity by keeping things to yourself as much as possible. Do not feel that you owe an explanation to others for wanting to pursue your happiness.
Honor the unique expression of who you are. You got this!
#42 Angel of Truth from the Love your Inner Goddess Oracle for 1/11/21
It’s amazing to me that this card came out today as #42 breaks down to the number 6 in numerology which is ruled by the planet Venus. And more amazing is the message that this Goddess Oracle card conveys:
“The truth wants to be to be told, needs to be heard. It may seem like the whole world wants to believe in a lie, and so you wonder if you are crazy, if you are the only one who is thinking differently and desiring the real story to emerge. Yet those that fight against the truth are even more in need of it! There can be no healing, no freedom, no moving on without it. You are going to be blessed with a truth revealed, a realization about yourself, the world, or others that will bring you relief. It will happen at the right time. It will set your soul free.
Sometimes the lies we are repeatedly told become so familiar that we forget that they are lies and begin to believe they are real. Maybe it’s someone judging us that is the lie. Maybe it’s advertising and the media, which are often more about deceptive manipulation than a source of correct information. Whatever the source, all untruth teaches us the same thing. That we must be afraid. This is like poison for the soul. The soul needs truth like your body needs air. It keeps it alive. Deep in your soul, you know what is true, and you know when you, or anyone else, is not being truthful. You are sensitive enough to know that only the truth feels good for you. You must give yourself permission to be truthful with your own soul and live honestly, authentically and bravely in this world. It is the only way for you to really be you. Put your faith in TRUTH, because it will always shine stronger than any lie.”
In numerology, your year number is calculated by adding up the numbers from the month you were born, plus the date and the current year. If it is a double digit number, add them together to come up with a single digit number. For example, if your birthday is on October 15th. You would calculate your year number as follows: 1+0+1+5+2+0+2+1 =12/3.
If your year number is a number 11, that is considered a “master number” that has particular significance, and is normally read as both an 11 and a 2.
Okay, so you did the math and are ready to see what 2021 has in store for you. Let’s do this! Click on the video below:
Here we are, the first day after the historical astrological alignment everyone has been all a buzz about – The Jupiter/Saturn Great Conjunction at 0 degrees in Aquarius, which occurred on the date of the Winter Solstice on 12/21/20. Basically, this marks the shift that signifies our entering the new age of Aquarius. The portal has opened. One of the significant factors of this alignment is that it starts a 200 year cycle of Saturn and Jupiter in air signs, where they have spent the last 200 years in earth signs. This is a whole new paradigm shift we will be experiencing on the planet for the next 200 years. Get ready!
The year 2021 is a “five year”. Fives are an energy of shaking things up. Breaking away from the stability of the four. Much like a teenager, the number five rebels against established order. And just like a teenager, the frequency of five energy can get quite chaotic. 2021 will certainly be an interesting year for us. Aquarius energy is one of challenging established paradigms. Out of the box thinking, advanced technology, new social norms, grass roots communities, new ways of doing things, challenging authority, a broader understanding of our world, asking questions, a fresh perspective in how things can be done more efficiently, cleaner, more humanely, better, faster, with the goal of what is of benefit to the collective. Not just for the benefit of a few.
I anticipate that 2021 and in particular, the months of January and February are going to be quite a bumpy ride as the powers that be are busy maneuvering their chess pieces so to speak. As such, a lot will be thrown at us, the collective. Situations and circumstances that will challenge us to face our fears head on (as is shown in the 9 of swords card above). We also will have the chance to stand up for ourselves and make our voices heard. Hopefully you have been paying attention to what has really been happening in 2020. Are you awake yet? I sure hope so!
Change is coming, but as you know, anytime there is change, there is always a period of chaos beforehand, while the energies are dismantled so that they can be put back together again in a new way. This is what we saw in 2020 and will be seeing more of in 2021. Aquarius, as a rebellious, eccentric, creative sign, likes to shake things up! I believe some shocking revelations will come to light in the upcoming months.
With this being said, let’s move on to the tarot card that literally flipped out of the deck while I was shuffling this morning as I wanted to get a feel for the collective energy on this powerful new day. It’s interesting that a swords card came out as swords is a mental “air” suit in the tarot. Aquarius is an “air” sign.
The nine of swords in this particular deck, is a great card! In the standard Rider-Waite-Smith tarot, the nine of swords shows a person sitting up in a bed with their head in their hands worried. But in the After Tarot deck, the person in the bed has decided to face their fears head on. No longer a victim of fear, anxiety, mental anguish, subconscious trauma, old patterns, limiting beliefs, a skewed perception of oneself. The person in this card has decided to face their nightmare once and for all. They have picked up one of the swords that are hanging on the wall and are using it to confront their fears head on! This is the only way we can move past them. I love the image on this card. To me it says – okay I’ve had enough. Let’s do this!
This card, being a nine, is significant. This number indicates one is almost at the end. The ten of swords in the tarot deck shows an image of someone laying face down with 10 swords in their back. There is no doubt when one sees this card that it is the end. But the positive aspect is that this opens the door to new beginnings.
The nine of swords is an indication that we are moving in the right direction. We will get shaken up in 2021, but these challenges are what is going to push us to find the strength in ourselves that we forgot that we had. When we finally say, enough is enough – okay let’s do this! And we slay the so called “dragon” that has been creeping around us in the darkness for centuries.
It’s a rough fight as we see in the 10 of swords card that I mentioned before. But we don’t stay down. We take all those swords out of our backs and get up. We embrace that new horizon, that new start. And we walk into the New Age of Aquarius with one Sword, for we are starting over with the number 1. This is the Ace of Swords, which is the symbol of truth, light, clarity, purpose.
And with our one sword, we start a new cycle, in a new age. Are you ready?
Things are looking up! A few quick meanings for the Five of Pentacles in the reversed position are: Renewal of faith, nearing the end of hard times, improvement in circumstances, health, finances, relationships, etc. New opportunities. Help in the form of spiritual, physical or monetary aid. An improved perspective/mental outlook. The window that we see in this card in the upright position, is now a door in the reversed position. The snow at the couples feet is now the snow on the roof of the building (sanctuary/church). This couple kept their faith and continued moving forward despite the hardships they were facing. Here, they have arrived at the light at the end of the tunnel! A brighter future awaits. Open the door and go inside!
