Full Moon in Taurus 11/15/24

When I looked at the planetary placements for the upcoming full moon in Taurus on November 15th, I received the image of the running of the bulls celebration in Spain! This full moon brings themes of courage, endurance, and patience, encouraging us to trust our instincts when deciding whether to move forward, pivot, or hold steady. Like the bulls charging through narrow streets, we’re pushing through the final stretch of 2024, testing our resolve with the second to last full moon of the year. The final full moon of 2024 will be in the sign of Gemini on December 15th, closing out the 2024 lunar cycle.

November’s planetary shifts are quite a buzz as things are coming together to form a different picture from what we are used to – think of puzzle pieces snapping into place. Saturn, which has been retrograde since June, goes direct at the same time as this full moon on November 15th, helping to bring clarity to areas in our life that require responsibility and structure. Pluto will then move into Aquarius for the next two decades on November 19th, which begins a profound societal shift, and Mercury will retrograde on November 25th and stations direct again at the next full moon on December 15th. All these planetary movements support the closing out of an era, as we turn the page to begin an entirely new chapter.

The tarot cards associated with this full moon, the Seven of Pentacles and Seven of Cups, mirror these themes. The Seven of Pentacles, corresponding to the moon in Taurus, invites you to take stock of what you’ve been investing your time and energy into. Has your hard work paid off, or is it time to reassess your investment versus profit ratio? The last new moon in Taurus was on May 7th, this could be a time marker for some of you. What seeds did you plant back then, and how are they doing now?

Meanwhile, the Seven of Cups, corresponding to the sun in Scorpio, is asking you to consider your choices carefully and practice discernment while exploring dreams and possibilities, as you decide what truly aligns with your long-term vision. As we close out the old and make space for the new, it’s important to be real with where you are coming from and where you want to go moving forward.

Here’s where things get interesting: Uranus, the planet of sudden change and the unexpected, is right next to the full moon, ready to shake things up. With the Sun in the opposite sign of Scorpio, the catalyst will most likely come about from a psychological aspect – a desire to break free from patterns or dynamics that are outdated, unbalanced, unfulfilling, or perhaps it has run its karmic course.

The moon is exalted in the sign of Taurus (she likes it there), but let’s not forget, we are dealing with a cominbation of full moon energy and the sun in Scorpio, which is quite potent. And with a full moon conjunct Uranus, expect some curveballs. Imagine running with the bulls in Spain – you’ve got a plan and think you know where you are going, but WTF, a surprise comes around the corner, changing the direction of your path. But lucky for you, this works out in your favor. Better you found out now rather than later.

Adding to the tension, Mars in Leo is inconjunct with Venus in Capricorn, which can make us feel a bit out of sync with others or even within ourselves. If you’re feeling misaligned with someone—whether in a personal relationship or at work—the energy of this full moon encourages patience rather than pushing for immediate solutions. High emotions can lead to impulsive actions, which may have unplanned consequences. Save your energy and put it towards something constructive. This is a time to play chess, not checkers.

Fortunately (good news), Mars is also forming a harmonious trine with the North Node, giving you the motivation to move forward. If you are seeing signs that a current situation is not supporting your personal or professional goals, or is limiting you in some way, this full moon will give you some clarity as to where adjustments can be made, making it easier to pursue a life, love or goal that feels more authentic to you.

Finally, as Pluto moves out of Capricorn and into Aquarius on November 19th where it will stay for the next 20 years, we’re at a turning point, where we collectively and individually, are encouraged to step into the future with a clean slate. This isn’t a Tower energy, not everything has to go, it’s more of an acknowledgment of lessons learned and releasing what we’ve outgrown.

I’ve noticed an uptick online of trends towards simple living, lighter home spaces, less material “things”, a low tolerance for stress, and an emphasis on living well with less. These are Aquarian signatures that are beginning to surface. We are living life instead of life “happening” to us. This is sneak peak of what is to come.

This Taurus full moon energy has a grounding influence, yet with Uranus nearby, it also reminds us that not everything is within our control, and that is ok. Life is similar to running with the bulls, there is a surprise at every turn, challenging us to adapt, stay centered, and keep moving forward.

You may end up somewhere you never expected, but you are exactly where you need to be. ❤

Have a great full moon!

Welcome to Scorpio Season!

The zodiac sign of Scorpio is represented by Death in the tarot major arcana

Welcome to Scorpio season! 10/22/24-11/21/24

If you’ve been feeling the pull to explore the unknown—whether it’s the hidden corners of your own psyche or daring to take a peek behind the veil that separates the physical and spiritual realms, you are not alone. Scorpio energy thrives amidst the mysterious, the macabre, and in unearthing what lies beneath the surface.

Some of these things aren’t so pretty, but life isn’t always rainbows and sunshine, is it? Scorpio season is when we get real with ourselves and others. It’s when we dare to explore what lurks in the shadows, what goes “bump” in the night. We embrace our dark side by embodying our alter ego, whether through costumes, home decor, and even in the way we interact with world around us.

There’s just something about the “vibe” this time of year…

During “spooky” season, we give ourselves permission to step into our more mysterious, powerful selves. We confront the fears and secrets that have been hiding in the corners of our minds by cavorting with them. As we release judgement and accept the invitation to “dance with the devil” for just a little while, we realize that every shadow does indeed, have a lesson to teach.

The major arcana tarot card that is associated with Scorpio is Death. The image on this card can be quite jarring to the uninitiated, but it stands as a powerful symbol of transformation. It is said that death is but a transition of energy from one plane of existence to another. Look closely at the image on this card. Do you see the sunrise in the background, and the flowing waterfall? Death is nothing to fear. The old energy is being cleared out to make room for something new. The process is not always comfortable, but it is necessary.

Scorpio season invites you to reflect on the areas of your life that feel stagnant—whether it’s a job you’ve outgrown, a hobby that no longer excites you, or a friendship/relationship that feels stuck. These aren’t just external challenges; they’re signs that you are undergoing a deep, internal transformation. Scorpio’s energy pushes you to confront what is no longer working and to ask yourself, “What am I ready to release in order to make room for new growth?”

So, what shadows will you be exploring this Scorpio season? And what do you expect to find there? Keep an open mind as you’re bound to encounter some interesting dance partners along the way, all of which have something to teach you. Give yourself permission to engage in the dance; no matter how uncomfortable it feels at first, and trust that every step you take is leading you closer to a more authentic, empowered version of yourself.

Happy Scorpio season everyone!

This week’s tarot & energy update 10/7-10/13/24

This week’s message indicates the seeds that you have previously planted are beginning to germinate. As the moon progresses through the signs of Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius leading up to the first quarter moon on Thursday, the next seven days are a time of progress, but may also present potential challenges. The Chariot as your tarot card encourages you to remain focused and persistent, even if you face a few tests along the way.

There is an element of patience that is coming through for you all. As we see in the image of the Earth Magic oracle card, the process is unfolding – literally you have magic happening underneath your feet! I do see growth occurring but remember once an idea or dream takes form in the physical plane, things slow down as there is a process that cannot be rushed. This is not the time to give up! Stay committed to your goal and keep moving forward. Some of you are already halfway there but you may not realize it yet!

This weekend it would be beneficial for you to go out in nature and ground your energy. When was the last time you walked barefoot through the grass, hiked on a nature trail, or strolled along the beach? Well, that’s too long! Connecting to the earth will help you dispel excess energy which will enable you to remain focused and balanced in both your actions and mindset.

Have a great week!

Ok, are you ready? Read your messages below:

Which card are you drawn to? One, two or three?

Card #1: Justice upright

The Justice card from the Rider Waite Smith tarot deck

The Justice card upright is a beacon of light for you during this eclipse, bringing that much-needed balance back into your life. If things have felt a bit off-kilter or unfair lately, fear not—the universe is stepping in to set the scales right. This is a time for clarity and honesty, especially in your relationships and dealings.

You are advised to make decisions that reflect your true values and not to compromise on what matters most to you. Karma is on the move, and what comes around goes around as they say. Trust the process and remember that the truth will always come out. Your justice and/or fair share is on the way and harmony will be restored.

Card #2: The High Priestess

The High Priestess card from the Rider Waite Smith tarot deck

This eclipse is activating your intuitive senses in a big way! The High Priestess encourages you to pay attention to what is NOT being said, so observe more and speak less during this time. A secret may be revealed or perhaps a deeper understanding unfolds, either by spoken word or your inner knowing, revealing a previously hidden truth regarding a person or situation.

Spirit is guiding you with profound wisdom during this time, pay attention to the signs and synchronicities around you; they are not mere coincidences, but messages from a higher source.

This is a pivotal moment of transformation, as the eclipse reveals a path or option that resonates with your soul. Your mind may be mulling over the decision, but deep down, your heart has already made its choice.

Have a great week! ❤

New Moon Solar Eclipse in Libra

Ah, the energy this week feels potent and transformative, and I know you all are feeling it too, with the new moon solar eclipse in Libra on October 2nd as the primary focus. This transit with its themes of balance, harmony, and justice, is inviting you to take a closer look at where things may feel out of sync in your relationships and interactions with others. So, if something feels “off” in your connections; whether with a partner, friend, or business colleague, this new moon solar eclipse will help you to initiate positive changes that recalibrate the scales.

This transit is all about release as it is occurring on the south node axis, encouraging you to let go of what no longer serves your current path. As you move through this week, you may find yourself shedding old habits or ways of relating to others that contribute to unbalanced power dynamics. This energy may manifest for you in subtle ways or something bigger, depending on your experience. Some of you may decide to have that honest heart-to-heart conversation or set a firm boundary that has been long overdue. You may decide to end a relationship, or find fresh, creative ways to work together to strengthen one.

The formation of alliances and adversaries are possible this week! Yes, Libra strives for harmony and balance, but it is also the sign of hidden enemies. Solar eclipses have a way of uncovering things, and we have Mercury in the sign of Libra and Venus in the sign of Scorpio during this time, so don’t be surprised if a sudden shift or revelation comes to light. This may feel destabilizing at first or may come as a confirmation or relief. Whatever the case may be, a beneficial aspect of this transit is that you are well supported to calmly and directly make a solid choice, negotiate more favorable terms, or face an uncomfortable situation head-on.

This is beautiful time of inner transformation for you, as you reclaim your personal sovereignty and align with a more authentic and heart-centered version of yourself.

Some ways you can support yourself this week are:

Setting healthy boundaries by communicating your needs clearly and calmly. You may be tested if others are used to your compromising, so be kind, but firm.

Movement such as gentle yoga, a walk outside, etc. will help you stay grounded and encourage your body to gently release excess energy and emotions. Reiki and energy work can also be extremely supportive during this time.

Prioritize rest. Eclipses are intense which can make you feel more tired than usual. Make space for some extra downtime and avoid overwhelming yourself with social commitments if you are not up to it. It’s okay to say no.

Reach out for support if needed. Talking it out with a friend, relative or your local professional tarot reader (shameless plug), can be a tremendous help to relieve temporary anxiety and pent-up emotions, as well as can offer you valuable insights that bring clarity to a situation.

Engage in something creative that you love to do. Creative outlets are necessary for our well-being. They are therapeutic in their own right, as they nourish our soul.

Crystals you may find helpful to work with are rose quartz, amethyst, citrine, lapis lazuli, hematite, black obsidian, lepidolite, blue lace agate and moonstone.

I love you all, have a wonderful week! ❤

Pisces Full Moon Eclipse 9/17/24: Messages, Insights & Crystals.

Below is a written transcript of the video:

The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces on September 17th is the first set of eclipses on the Virgo-Pisces axis that will continue until early 2027. This partial eclipse can also be considered a preview of the energetic signature we can expect to see when the north and south nodes shift away from the current Aries-Libra axis and onto the Pisces-Virgo axis in early 2025.

This transit occurs at 25 degrees in Pisces. Look up this coordinate in your personal natal chart, as this will give you an inkling of what areas of your life will be most affected by this lunar event.

Eclipses are known to facilitate change. As a lunar eclipse, this transit’s effects will be in general, more internalized, or this energy may reveal its wisdom and messages through the people closest to you. Acting as a metaphorical mirror, they may question or challenge you in some way. If this is your experience, pay attention to how you feel and what internal dialogue comes up for you during and after the interaction. Do your best to respond, not react. There is a message and/or lesson here for you. Go ahead and crack open that oyster and discover for yourself, the pearl of wisdom hidden inside.

Vivid dreams, epiphanies and insights are also likely to occur about a week before and after the full moon. Especially for my natural empaths out there. These intuitive “hits” serve as inspiration for new ideas, creative endeavors, plans, goals, healing, innovative solutions, and healthy perspective shifts. Be sure to journal your thoughts so that you can revisit and expand upon them later.

Opposing the moon, is the sun in Virgo, which is helping us to balance out all this watery energy. The Pisces-Virgo axis is where you are encouraged to find a way to bridge the two worlds of the spiritual and the physical, the dreamer and the doer. Even the best ideas need a practical plan of action, to manifest them into reality.

The sun and moon’s square to Jupiter in the sign of Gemini is a challenging aspect that can heighten mental activity during this time. You may be overthinking a situation or are finding it difficult to stay on task. Jupiter in Gemini may also stir up some gossip, so be careful of making assumptions, and do your best to stay in your own lane. This placement can also have you feeling quite energized and over-optimistic, which may have you tempted to take on more than you can realistically handle. If you are noticing any of these signs, this is your message that you need to ground your energy a bit. Take a step back, breathe, and slow down, in order to gain some clarity.

On a supportive note, the sun and moon form a beneficial aspect with Uranus in the sign of Taurus. Uranus, the planet of surprise and innovation, is here to shake things up in a positive way. This aspect is shifting the collective energies to align with opportunities and breakthroughs, especially related to Taurus themes of personal finances, physical health, self-esteem, love, beauty, and personal values.

This full moon transit will likely mark a significant turning point that serves as the catalyst for a positive shift or change. But I want to mention here, that there is no need to rush into a decision or plan (more on this in a moment). This is but the first of an approximately two-year eclipse cycle occurring on the Pisces-Virgo axis. And as I mentioned before, the north and south nodes, officially move onto this axis in January 2025. So, the first of the year, may be an opportune target date for some of you, giving you time to plan and/or prepare accordingly.

On a personal note, I am noticing this transit is having a surreal effect on the collective psyche. To put it simply, things just feel out of sorts right now, not everything is as it seems…

For those of you seeing this, my advice is to consider embodying the qualities of the High Priestess archetype of observing more and saying less for the time being. Her emotions and intuition serve her, not the other way around. Don’t be so quick to reveal your hand. After the full moon, when the energies even out, things will become clearer, and you’ll be glad that you did not succumb to an emotional impulse.

Some crystals that may help you process the heightened emotional and spiritual energy of this full moon lunar eclipse are:

Amethyst: Corresponding to the crown chakra, this stone is known for its calming and spiritual properties. It enhances intuition and one’s connection to the higher realms. Amethyst helps you stay centered and grounded, boosts self-esteem, and aids in overcoming addictions, unhealthy habits and subconscious patterns.

Labradorite: Labradorite with its beautiful flashes of color, helps you release old patterns and embrace change. It offers protection and enhances psychic abilities at the same time, making it an ideal choice to work with when tapping into Pisces dreamy, intuitive energy.

Aquamarine: This blue-green stone supports emotional release and helps you communicate your feelings more effectively. It promotes a healthy balance between your emotions and your practical side, which compliments the full moon lunar eclipse on the Pisces-Virgo axis quite well.

Selenite: This beautiful soft white crystal, is used for cleansing and connecting to higher realms. It is an ideal crystal to use when working with the moon as it is named after Selene, the moon goddess. It clears out negative energy and raises your vibration, allowing you to be a clear channel for spiritual insights and wisdom that may come through in the weeks leading up to and during, this full moon eclipse.

Smoky Quartz: One of my personal favorites, smoky quartz is an excellent grounding stone that neutralizes negative energy and helps to keep you calm and centered mentally and emotionally, which makes it ideal to wear, hold, or have in your space when you need a stabilizing influence.

Red Jasper: This red crystal connects you to the earth and promotes stability, strength, balance and endurance. Corresponding to the root chakra, this stone energizes, yet is grounding at the same time. It helps you stay positive while you navigate life’s challenges and changes, and keeps you focused on moving forward to achieve your goals.

Have a wonderful full moon! ❤

Aries August Tarot Messages: Page of Wands

Page of Wands from the Rider Waite Smith tarot deck

Aries sun and rising, you are feeling a burst of inspiration this month, with the Page of Wands as your tarot card theme. The energetic signature of this card reflects a youthful vibe, someone who is optimistic and open to exploring new paths and ideas.

It corresponds to the element of Fire, which is your element, and the dates associated with this card are July 21st through September 22nd. These dates may be of relevance to some of you. Whatever your current focus is on for the next few weeks, you are being invited to embrace a sense of adventure as you take bold steps out of your comfort zone.

The Page of Wands is a card of intuition and spiritual growth. If you’re feeling restless Aries, it’s likely your soul is urging you to explore different options and to experiment with what truly resonates with you. Something to keep in mind, is that mid-month on the 16th, Mars (your ruling planet) squares off with serious Saturn. This transit combined with Mercury in retrograde, may slow down your progress. If this happens, work with the energy by considering this as your cue to take a step back for a few days. Use this time to review the details of your plans or shift your focus to something else for a bit.

Things will begin to open back up for you, after the full moon in Aquarius on the 19th. By around the 22nd when the Sun enters Virgo, you will be channeling your motivation into decluttering both your mental and physical space, to make room for the changes you are ready to implement.

By the end of August, Aries, you will begin to see a positive shift take place. The full moon on the 19th may have brought with it some new people or fresh perspectives. Mercury will be stationed direct, and Venus will be in Libra, so it will be an auspicious time for you to build solid, supportive partnerships and connections. And this can apply to love, business, or friendships.

Aries, the month of August is setting the stage for new ideas, opportunities, and growth. You have a vision in mind, and the Page of Wands upright as your tarot card theme, is a sign that the universe is encouraging you to pursue it with the passion and enthusiasm that my Aries sun and rising signs are known for! You of all people know in your heart, that all great things start with the spark of inspiration.

Have a great month ❤

Sagittarius Tarot Messages for August: Seven of Wands

Seven of Wands tarot card from the Rider Waite Smith deck

Hi Sagittarius sun and rising! Your tarot card theme for this month is the Seven of Wands. Fortune favors the brave my friend, and for the next few weeks, it’s all about standing your ground and defending your position.

This card is associated with the planet Mars and the zodiac sign of Leo, another fire sign. I find this interesting since we are in Leo season now. This month, Sagittarius, you might be facing some challenges or competition, but don’t worry – this card is upright for you, indicating that you’ve got the strength and determination to handle it, and most of you appear to have the upper hand.

Whatever is going on with you this month, you are encouraged to hold firm in your beliefs and not back down when things get tough. As the month progresses, you’ll find that your persistence pays off as long as you are assertive and clear regarding your boundaries.

The Seven of Wands theme can easily be applied to all the areas of your life. Whether this energy is presenting itself at your work or in your career, school, in your personal life, or this could be a goal or pursuit that is important to you. You may have some outright “haters” or others around you may be a little more subtle in their attempts to dampen your fire. This card reminds me of the “crabs in the barrel” euphemism. Which is when someone has the courage to take a chance and go for something, it’s invariable that there will be those less brave around us that are uncomfortable with our growth and will try to convince us to stay where we are. Similar to, when we see a crab trying to crawl out of a barrel and the others pull it back in.

But that is not enough to deter my adventure loving Sagittarius is it? Stand tall and don’t let others sway you from your path. This might mean having some tough conversations or making difficult decisions, but if you know in your heart that this is what you want, then trust that you’re doing what’s best for you. How boring the world would be if we were all the same.

This card can also reflect some tough competition around you. The previous message applies here too. Do your best and keep your goals front and center. Don’t let the others get to you. The next card after this one is the Eight of Wands, which signifies an opening of energies via swift action and communication. The Eight of Wands corresponds to your sign, Sagittarius and the dates associated with this card are August 23rd through September 1st. These dates may be of relevance for some of you. This opening up of energies encourages you to stay proactive and determined as soon you will overcome or push through this resistance that you are experiencing.

In your social life and relationships, the Seven of Wands suggests that you might need to set firmer boundaries with others. The character in this card is on the edge of a cliff, dealing with 6 other wands, indicating that it is important for you to protect your energy and not let anyone take advantage of your generosity. Say “no” once in a while. I’m not saying to shut others out, but honestly assess what is reasonable for you to handle, so that you’re not spreading yourself too thin.

If you are in a committed relationship, this card can indicate some challenges, or that a more equitable division of responsibilities may need to be addressed. Both of you must be willing to put down your wands and have a conversation. If you are single, you literally may be “fighting them off”. You can’t help that your fabulous! But if your love is getting a little out of hand, you may want to scale back.

Lastly Sagittarius, make sure to carve out some time for self-care and relaxation. You appear to be in battle-ready rode or at the minimum, burning the candle at both ends! This is quite the pace, consider taking a break to recharge when you can. Mercury is retrograde this month which tends to slow things down, so if the opportunity presents itself, take advantage of it and enjoy some well-earned leisure time.

Have a great month ❤

Chiron Retrograde in Aries

The nine of wands & the four of wands from the Rider Waite Smith tarot deck

Chiron retrograde in Aries from July 26-December 29, 2024, is a powerful time for healing and self-discovery. This period encourages the collective to reflect on old wounds and unresolved issues, particularly those related to our sense of self-identity, our voice and personal power. This is a highly charged time as the astrological dark feminine archetype, Black Moon Lilith accompanies the South node, in the opposite sign of Libra – which represents justice, laws, contracts, marriage and partnerships.

How interesting as during this transit, we appear to be witnessing key core unresolved societal attitudes and power dynamics from the past, currently being brought back up front and center for reevaluation and reassessment.

Chiron “the wounded healer” retrograde in powerful Aries can be a bit triggering as it is a “in your face” type energy. The motto for Aries is “I am” after all. So do your best to be patient with yourself and others as we are all feeling a bit on edge. But on the positive side, the collective is being strongly invited, to witness the events transpiring, that before were hidden behind closed doors and smiling faces, and carefully observe, reflect, and assess your own feelings and thoughts about what you are being shown.

On an individual level, look up your personal natal chart online and find the house where 23 degrees Aries is located. This is the area of your life that will be most personally impacted by Chiron’s retrograde, highlighting where you may need to confront and heal past wounds or challenges to foster your own empowerment, personal growth, and your soul’s evolution. Black Moon Lilith is currently at 3 degrees Libra, so you may find it helpful to include this aspect as well, for additional insights.

If you all would like me to do a post in the future on the astrological aspects of Black Moon Lilith, and how she impacts our natal chart, let me know in the comments! If you would like to schedule a private reading to delve into these energies further, please contact me through my website: www.firemoonalchemy.com ❤

Capricorn Full Moon 7/24/24

Four of Pentacles & Four of Cups from the Rider Waite Smith tarot deck

This is a special full moon, as it is the second consecutive full moon in the sign of Capricorn in the last 30 days! The previous one was on June 21st. Having two full moons back to back occur in the same sign is quite rare. Consider this a second chance for us to address the Capricorn themed areas of our life. As this moon occurs on the 29th degree of this sign, this is your message to make those final revisions and/or get moving to implement plans or goals that were put into place last month. For some of you, this full moon may coincide with, or urge you to, make an important decision or have the final word, such as in a conversation or this could be your signature on a document or contract.

Let’s discuss the tarot cards associated with this transit to see what insights they have for us!

First, we have the Four of Pentacles which represents the Moon in Capricorn. There’s a strong focus on your responsibilities and ambitions with this card. Often it comes up in my readings when the message is to be frugal with your finances and to be mindful of where your resources are going.

Fours in the tarot represent stability, and the element of earth speaks of physical, tangible things that are pertinent to our survival, such as our health, money, career, home, etc. More than ever nowadays, it is important for everyone to review their goals and spending to be sure you are building a solid foundation for the future. But be careful of becoming overly rigid with your finances (i.e., pennywise and dollar foolish). The energy of Capricorn encourages us to be disciplined and responsible, but to also maintain a healthy balance between frugal and “cheap”.

The Four of Cups corresponds to the Sun in Cancer. This card has a cynical vibe to it. You could be feeling a bit stuck or dissatisfied, even though most likely, you have good things around you. With the Sun in the sign of Cancer opposite this full moon, collectively, we might be feeling more sensitive than usual. If you have been feeling bored or unfulfilled lately, this is a reminder to look within and see why you are feeling that way. Your intuition may be nudging you to make some changes.

So, how you balance these energies to make the most of this Capricorn full moon? It’s a great time for reflection and planning. Take a moment to appreciate what you have now and what you’ve achieved in the last 30 days (it’s probably more than you realize), and to think about what your next steps should be on a goal, plan or project. Budget funds to take care of routine maintenance and small repairs to cross them off your “to do” list and to prevent larger problems in the future.

The Four of Cups can indicate burnout. Remember to balance your hard work with self-care. Try to break up your routine once a while to freshen up your mental outlook. Be on the lookout for opportunities and blessings that appear in unexpected ways, and try to practice an “attitude of gratitude” whenever possible.

As full moons can signifiy a time of completion, it may be time to let go of things that no longer serve you or that have become an energy or financial drain. This will give you some peace of mind and make space for the aforementioned opportunities and blessings to come in!

For my crystal loving friends, below are some excellent crystals that resonate with the Capricorn energy:

1. Garnet: Known for both its grounding and energizing properties, garnet helps us to stay focused on our goals and enhances our vitality.

2. Black Onyx: This stone protects us from negative energy and fosters emotional stability.

3. Smoky Quartz: A grounding stone, smoky quartz helps us connect to the earth, and helps us stay focused on our ambitions. It also is effective at dispelling negative energy and promotes a practical, yet positive mental outlook.

4. Fluorite: Known for its ability to enhance mental clarity and focus, fluorite can help us stay organized and efficient. It also supports decision-making and problem-solving.

5. Black Tourmaline: This protective stone can help shield us from negative energy, helping us stay grounded. Wearing or holding black tourmaline promotes a feeling of security and security. This stone can be too “heavy” for very sensitive people, so you may need to experiment with this stone.

6. Hematite: A grounding and balancing stone, hematite is very effective at keeping us focused on the task at hand. It also enhances strength and endurance. This is another “heavy” stone, so if you are sensitive, just like with black tourmaline above, pay attention to how you feel when working with it.

7. Tiger’s Eye: Known for its ability to enhance willpower and courage, tiger’s eye can help us stay determined and confident when pursuing our goals.

8. Malachite: This stone of transformation can help us release negative patterns and encourages us to flow with positive change. It is also an effective stone for protection, it’s green color corresponds with money and abundance, and it fosters emotional balance and personal growth. Malachite is one of my favorites!

Have a great full moon everyone!
