Good day to you, Priestess sisters, I’m getting back in the groove of things! Here is my reading from the mythic goddess tarot, a set that I purchased when I first enrolled into our order. We have Hecate as the magician, queen of swords, Juno Hierophant and Selene as the moon. Hekate: this is the second time in a row that she’s come to me, remind me that I am all I need both inside and out. As my pregnancy continues, there has been talk of inducing my labor, which is not part of my birth plan. I feel the strength within me becoming more of a protector than being a vault to victim and having negative thoughts towards my health care team. I also love, knowing that magical things are happening, and that I can harness my full potential to take action. The queen of swords: this is the first time me getting this card and I did a symbolic reading for my friend daughter on this sword that she found by a recycling center. I also recently posted my spontaneous photo shoot from my last performance, and I do feel like the mother of swords.! here I am reminded of my independency balance and objectivity, and being advised to stand up and put up boundaries can be a positive thing for all concerned. With Juno, the Hierophant her message is I choose which traditions I embrace and how to do it. The spiritual wisdom talks about finding answers and protection, as well as a teacher, a mentor or marriage, and the wisdom that is created from the teachings of these relationships. Selene the moon, even in the mists, my intuition, Lights, the way one step at a time, I love how all these cards have a message finding my own way. And with water there needs to be boundaries, but also a way for things to flow, with the emotional distress that I’ve had this card is petitioning me to go deep, sleep on it, and then allowing things to be cleared. Yesterday when Faelan did her card pole and the tower card and the night of pinnacles came up twice I could feel the echo from this mercury retrograde influence. Thank you for the message of even though it feels like the foundation is crumbling. Keep on pursuing your passion and that gave me guidance to keep on celebrating what is currently bringing me joy.

Our New Moon at 21°59' Cancer arrives on Tuesday, July 14, at 2:43am PT. A Cancer New Moon carries the flavor of going within, of searching the depths of our feelings for what needs to be felt, heard, healed, and nourished. This one takes that a step farther, as it is conjunct Mercury retrograde, asking us to think with our heart, and speak from our deep well of knowing. What wants to be healed in your life? What wants your heart's attention? What wants to be nurtured inside of you? As a Sacred Voice Alchemist, I also feel that this conjunction with Mercury is asking us to look at the shadow of our voices. Where have we stayed small or silent, in order to avoid hurt feelings? Where have we ignored our own intuition? Where have we dimmed our magic, because the world expects us to be practical or logical? Cancer also brings in themes of family and home. Perhaps these questions might make a healing conversation during quality time with our loved ones, where we feel safe to express our tender and vulnerable feelings. Or...where we need to set boundaries around them. Enter Saturn in Aries squaring off to this lunation. It is a loose square, but will be felt nonetheless. He is reminding us the importance of boundaries, and taking responsibility for our feelings. Whether the healing conversations are had within yourself, or with your loved ones...bravery will be required. Feelings may be hurt, but it is important that we breathe through the discomfort and finish the conversation. For the sake of love and authenticity. For the sake of keeping our hearts flowing with truth. And for the sake of empowering our voices to be the divine creative force that they are. Our Tarot questions are: *Where do I most need healing in my inner world right now? *Where do difficult conversations need to be had? *How can I empower my voice to speak freely from my heart and inner knowing?

Our actual new Moon is Sunday, June 14. Use this recording whenever fits with your lunar timing. Happy choosing! https://vimeo.com/1200591520/a2422b4719?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci

Hello Moon Lovers! Here's my write up and our Tarot spread. Feel free to share your readings if that's inspiring to you! Our Full Moon at 11° Scorpio arrives on May 1 at 10:23am PT. Most of my readers will recognize this lands on the common celebration date of Bealtaine (May Day). Bealtaine is a celebration of life returning to the land, and is traditionally celebrated with parties, bonfires, and happy mischief. A Full Moon supports the energy of playful festivities and the manifestation of our creative force. The classical ruler of this lunation is Mars in Aries, in his home sign of adrenaline, vitality, and passion. The bonfires will burn bright indeed! Alas, this is a Scorpio Moon, which illuminates the underbelly of the things that go bump in the night in our subconscious. We may discover some wounds that have been holding us back from the festivities of High Spring. Interestingly, Mercury will be conjunct Chiron in Aries during this lunation, helping us find our voice to advocate for the truest version of ourselves, the part of us we have been afraid to expose but we don't want to hide any longer. The modern ruler of this lunation is Pluto in Aquarius, who wants us all to face our fears and create collective change. Bealtaine and Samhain are twin gateways of life and death. At Bealtaine the gateway opens and life return to the surface, at Samhain the gateway opens and recedes below. Folklore, and my own experience, confirm these are nights that the Faery Folk ride freely in our own world. Magic is afoot. My greatest wish for this Full Moon is that each of us may find our hidden magic within, and declare to all who will listen that we are ready to claim it. There will be a shadow to face. Breathe. Acknowledge it. Honor it in whatever way is called. It will dissipate with your treasure waiting on the other side. Our Tarot questions are: * What is my hidden magic that is ready to be claimed? * What shadow must I face with love to claim this treasure? * What will I use my own magic and the vital life force of this season to create?
