Card of the Day – Death – Monday, January 14, 2019
The beginning…of The End. You are entering a transitional phase which allows you to close a very heavy door. You will not be closing it today, but things are beginning to get real, and chances are, you know soon they will be very different. This is not a card to be feared, although the path ahead may be a bit chaotic and less than smooth. Any transformation which is taking your life to a better space in the long run is certainly worth the expense of a slightly bumpy ride.
This particular part of your journey is allowing you to bring to closure events which have been occurring since 2011. It is time, for when you finish with this part, the biggest transition of your life awaits, as new doors will begin to open for you soon. You will be reborn, rise up better and stronger, with a new purpose…

Card of the Day – The Moon – Sunday, January 13, 2019
Today’s card could not be any more perfect if I had hand picked it. There will be today, the first of three major aspects this year, Jupiter square Neptune, and you should really mark your calendar for the other two as well. They will occur on June 16 and September 21, which both feel like very significant moments in your timeline. Now, we all know Jupiter likes to expand things, and Neptune is all about fears, dreams, illusions, and disillusionment. Neptune energy sounds very much like the Moon card itself.
So many of you are at a very crucial point, and yesterday we mentioned a crossroads with the 2 of Wands. The time has come to face those fears which are keeping you from your dreams. Truly, everything you’ve ever wanted is on the other side of fear. Rather than pace the floors at night, go beyond the fear and…

Paradigm Shift || Back To Nature Living In A Beautiful Tiny House Tent
Paradigm Shift || Be The Change
Consider your own relationship to your tech devices. Experiment this week with self-imposed constraints on how you use them.
Be The Change: Simplify Technology With Limits
“The problem comes when we try to figure out how to get a grip on it all, to tame technology to do what we need and then let it go so we can be more present, go outside more, move more, be connected to each other in real life more. Wrangling the chaos into something that we use consciously isn’t always easy. I propose simplicity. And the method I propose is limits.This is nothing new — I’ve been an advocate of the simplicity of limits for well over a decade, and many others have proposed simplicity and limits as well. It’s a movement, if one that’s drowned out by technology. But as with anything, we have to keep revisiting it. Keep coming back. Keep reminding ourselves. Keep practicing.” — Leo Babauta

Lāʻau Lāpaʻau || Liver Cleanse: A Simple Step-by-Step Guide
If you have a sluggish metabolism, are constantly ill, or follow a poor diet, it’s time to discover what a cleanse can do for you. Follow our simple, step-by-step guide to our 6-day liver cleanse.
The liver is the human body’s largest internal organ and one of the most important for survival. Without it, bodily tissues would die from lack of nutrients and oxygen and the digestive process would not be able to take place. One of the liver’s most important functions is the removal of toxins from your system. This function is why cleansing your liver and living a healthy lifestyle is so crucial. Performing a liver cleanse can help remove toxic buildup for overall health and wellness. Before doing a liver cleanse, it is important to understand what the liver is and all of the necessary functions it performs.
The Liver’s Location & Design

Card of the Day – 2 of Wands – Saturday, January 12, 2019
The. Fork. In. The. Road. Which way should you go? It has been several months since we have seen this card, and, while I am not a betting woman, I am willing to bet that, back on October 28 you thought you had something figured out and were headed in the right direction. Chances are, between the Venus and Mercury retrogrades, life’s sound effects sounded more like the beep-beep, beep-beep of a large truck moving in reverse. However, life is wanting to move forward again, now that there are no retrogrades in sight and the road ahead is wide open. Which begs the question – Which road do you take?
I always say that unless there is a dire emergency, choose the road which benefits you over the long-haul, rather than choosing short-term gratification. You have the ability now, at this crossroads, to truly begin making progress. I do not…

Signs You Need to Detoxify Your Liver
If you celebrated the holidays a bit too much, your liver may need a little love. Fatigue and digestive problems are two big signs your liver needs cleansing — do you know the others?
Symptoms of Liver Toxicity
Symptoms of liver toxicity are not always easy to pinpoint. Many conditions associated with an overloaded liver are problems that can arise from a number of causes. Although some conditions, such as fatigue or irritability are often just part of life, and not necessarily the result of liver deficiencies, ignoring pervasive health conditions is never advised.

Beets, kale, ginger, lemon, and carrots are some of the best liver cleansing foods. Juice them together and you have a delicious and easy way to cleanse your liver. This juice will kick-start your day!
Beet Juice Recipe with Liver Cleansing Foods
Your liver is your main detoxifying organ, and it can get bogged down from time to time depending on your diet, activity level, and environment. When an overload of toxins becomes too much for your liver to handle, toxic compounds can store within tissues and decrease your quality of health. Cleansing your liver with a liver detox can be helpful for revving up the function of your body’s natural detox mechanisms.

Card of the Day – 8 of Swords – Friday, January 11, 2019
Here it is again! The 8 of Swords is notorious for showing up more frequently than any other card here on the blog. However, this time around, how you handle it appears to be changing. Yesterday, I mentioned that the Sun would conjunct Pluto today and that personal transformation is imminent. Something has left you feeling powerless and trapped for far too long, and the urge to break free is likely overwhelming.
One of the things which I always say with this card is “The only thing that can stop you is you”. Truly, this transformation which is needed at this time is not as much about transforming your outer world as it is your headspace. Your mindset is particularly important now, and it is time to step out of the box in which you have been living. There exists solutions and answers to your problems, you merely need to…

Lapis Lazuli, which was prized and used in Ancient Egypt, “is a gemstone mined only in a part of Northern Afghanistan, and a classic example of a luxury good in medieval Europe and Asia. It was prized for its rich blue color, and would often be processed into a dye called ultramarine, which was used in lavish gospels and prayer books produced by hand in European monasteries. How lapis lazuli got to a religious community in northwest Europe is a story of commerce and empire, likely involving Near Eastern…
