If it feels like everything is falling apart around you Libra, it’s because it is. The world right now is a mess on pretty much all levels, and you are feeling it in a way thats its almost like your own body, heart and mind are being torn apart. The realities of social and environmental degradation are wearing you thin I know. It’s almost too much to handle. But the Magician and the Chariot want to remind you that within your spheres of interest to focus on your sphere of influence and where you can be the change you want to see in your life and community. There are the people you touch with your loving grace and gentleness, and the ones you trigger with your fierce perspectives and opinions.

Sun, Moon & Rising
Judgement | R Magician | R 5 of Cups

Well Scorpio, whatever has been churning up the muck from your watery deep seems to be settling. You are in for a Summer of major closure and completion. I know it’s not easy, it’s actually really emotional and hard to say goodbye to what we believed we were or had. But you are the Death card after all, this is your realm. Judgement is asking you to take a hard look at the role you have played in your own becoming, or even your own undoing. You raced too long, pushed too hard, fought too fiercely, gave too much, lost yourself. Almost to the point where you aren’t even sure who you are anymore. Try to not focus on what you feel you are losing, and try to focus on what is still here. Your magic may be a bit dark right now, but it doesn’t have to be that way. You are a force for change Scorpio, so run toward the light and let it animate you at this time. But remember, the brighter the light, the darker the shadow… can you learn to hold the two?

Sagittarius
Sun, Moon & Rising
8 of Wands | Temperance | R Magician

When we call on our allies, the ones walking the same road, we have an opportunity to charge ahead with greater confidence. The Chariot is asking you to call more aboard dear Sag. You don’t have to do anything alone, and you shouldn’t. I know, I know, you are so independent and wise, sometimes you think you know it all. Temperance is asking you to start questioning what you actually don’t know, and wants to you to seek those who do. This is what makes a community or project stronger, finding the compliments to your limitations. Because thats whats present right now isn’t it? You don’t like facing your limitations. You thought you could hold it all, do it all… solo. Hasn’t wisdom taught you anything? The tree doesn’t stand alone. It interdepends on countless others to hold it upright, from countless tiny unseen microbes in the soil, to the force of the wind, it is because of the other. Never forget this my Sagittarian friend. We got this, together. 

Herbal Allies: No tea for you. Get out into the garden, park or forest and observe the relationships all around. Who interacts with who, how is one affected by the other, and what would the whole be without each part present. 

Capricorn
Sun, Moon & Rising
High Priestess | The Wheel | R Magician

Oh Cappy, did you know that if you let go of control for one second you would find that the magic lies right there at your fingertips?? That life is unpredictable and chaotic, yet so perfectly ordered. That you have the power to spin your own wheel and weave your own web. We are all children of fate and chance, yet we are all powerful beings of agency and free will. Of course you have the capacity to act (agency), but what WILL you do with that power? The Reversed Magician feels a bit confused on where to direct its tools, but the Chariot is reminding you that this is not just the action of your powerfully determined mind, it’s the will of your heart and soul that need to guide you right now. The High Priestess is here to ask you to let your hair down, remembering that all acts of love and pleasure are your religion, this includes your work, your art, your health, your love, and your dreams. Dream Capricorn, imagine dear friend, and weave the world you want to live into existence.

Aquarius
Sun, Moon & Rising
R Moon | 5 Swords | 7 Swords

Ouch. What is happening with you Aquarius? Things just aren’t how they should be right now are they? Feelings of betrayal, of loss, of wasted time, of uncertainty and dismay. You didn’t see that coming did you? The ones you thought you could trust and lean on just up and went away. The person you thought you were isn’t acting in the ways you actually respect or admire. Have you been pretending to be someone you are not? Were you running toward a goal you believed you wanted? Trying to be and attain what others thought you should? This is a wakeup call my quirky alien friend, it’s time to redirect yourself. Find your self once more. Remake and renew your identity yet again. You have done it already, once, twice, five times. So what is another? But how about this time, you realllllly stop listening to others and focus on your own hearts truest desire. 

Herbal Allies: Now is the time for some nervous system support, leaning into your allies like Nettle, Lemon Balm, and Passionflower to ease tensions, remineralize, and give your system a sense of calm.

R 8 of Cups | R Page of Cups | 10 of Cups

Mmmmmm…. Feeling a bit nostalgic are we? You keep looking back, but at what? The things you tried to create but didn’t? The pile of art supplies still unopened? Those notes you meant to turn into something tangible? The life you thought you were going to have but lost? Whats the point in looking back? It’s over you know. So let’s turn ahead. Look at whats right in front of you. So many of your dreams are actually right there, so much has actually been fulfilled. Your health, your family, your place in life, your love. You are exactly where you are supposed to be, and no where else. Let the Chariot remind you of all the hard work you have already done, and that you have actually made such amazing progress in your life. And even though you may feel some of your creative efforts haven’t come to fruit, the seed of your creativity is still within you, ready to be awakened to the momentum of a new day and season ahead. 

Herbal Allies: How about a nice glass of cool White Wine or Rose to acknowledge all your accomplishments. We often forget the Grape is one of the Foods of the Gods, the sacred ally of celebration and joyous reverie.
