Today, take pride in your ability to lead and inspire others.  You have worked hard and are receiving recognition for your accomplishments.  Try to receive such acclaim and admiration graciously.  Be proud, but beware of conceit.  Remember to give gratitude to all those who have supported you to get here.  Others are looking at you for guidance.  Responsible and ethical action is required.  The most powerful way to teach is by modeling the behavior and attitudes yourself.  Take time to celebrate your triumph, but remember:  though you have had success on your path, you have not reached your final destination.  So, for today, be cognizant that others look up to you and your confidence supports and motivates them today.  Enjoy their admiration, while at the same time remembering you’ve earned it through your good actions and attitude.  Keep it up!

You are being plagued by worry, anxiety and fear.  You may be having nightmares or trouble sleeping because of all the thoughts racing through your mind.  You may be feeling ill and worried about your health.  Sometimes when we don’t deal with a situation in the light of day, it haunts us by night.  Worrying is poi9ntless unless it drives us to do something about the troublesome situation.  Start confronting your worries and fears.  Start taking steps to solve your problems.  Talk to someone about what’s on your mind.  Write in a journal.  Start taking better care of your health.  Do something!  So, today, you are near the end of your mental ordeal, if you start facing it.  If you continue to ignore your doubts and fears, they will continue to haunt you.  It’s time to start getting to the roots of your worry.  There is something you’ve been pushing down or trying to ignore, but it’s not working for you anymore.  Your worries creep in when you’re trying to sleep, disrupt your appetite, create so much noise in your mind.  A good way to start facing what’s bothering you is to write it down.  From there you can decide if there’s something you can do about it, or choose to just let it go.

The Moon represents darkness, but not in a negative sense.  It represents the realms of the unconscious, and of the illusions that might exist in one’s conscious perception of things.  Now is the time to pay attention to your intuition and dreams.  What do your deepest feelings tell you about your current situation?  What are you most afraid of right now?  Sometimes the most profound growth is found in facing our deepest fears.  You may be hiding something from others or yourself.  Someone may also be hiding something from you, contributing to confusion and fear you’re feeling.  The Moon advises us to go within to seek better understanding before taking action.  It may be wise to keep some things hidden for now.  This card also represents natural cycles, such as the cycles of the moon, menstruation, or the changing of the seasons.  Today, rather than reacting to the events that occur, take time to reflect.  If someone or something upsets you, consider why you feel so strongly about the matter.  Does it remind you of something in your past?  Though it may be scary or painful to look so closely at your hidden motivation, doing so will give you valuable knowledge about yourself.

The energies today are about wisdom and strength gained through experience.  Think back in time when you’ve been in a similar situation — what lessons did you learn then that you can apply now?  This card’s appearance could also serve as a warning.  It could be that you think you know what to expect, and have your defences up to protect yourself.  Though we do learn from experience, there is always the possibility that things will turn out differently than we expect and that people will surprise us.  Be wary of self-fulfilling prophecy.  Sometimes when we expect the worst, that’s exactly what we end up getting.  Notice how you got to where you are through your own choices.  You are not a victim.  If you are not satisfied with your current position, you can make a choice to change that, too.  You are SO CLOSE to completion or success in some aspect of your life, but this last part feels really hard today.  Past experiences may be bringing up doubt for you.  Don’t give up!  You have within you the strength and wisdom to get it done.

You might be feeling trapped or limited today.  You are probably thinking that you have no viable options available.  You may feel weakened by the circumstances in your life, or by others’ opinions of you.  It is quite likely that the limitations you feel are self-imposed.  You are imprisoned by your own thinking more than anything.  How you use your mind is your choice:  you can use your thoughts to keep you trapped, or you can use them to cut through limitations.  Ask yourself what you get out of remaining “stuck”and what you could gain if you were to move forward.  Often, all that is needed to get unstuck is the courage to think in a new way.  So, if you’re feeling limited or victimized today, examine the stories you tell yourself. It’s likely that you’ll discover that it’s your own inner critic, or wounded inner child, that is stopping you from moving forward more than any external force.  You hold the key to your own progress.

 

The theme of today is Union and Unity … the coming-together of two or more things to create something new.  This card represents romantic attraction, a marriage, a supportive partnership, coming to a compromise, mutual support in a relationship, friendship and bonding, or a sense of equality between two people or two groups of people.  Whether this message indicates romance, business partners, friends, family members or the uniting of physical and spiritual realms, it always represents equality, balance and a mutual give-and-take, particularly in regard to emotional support and understanding.  Today, spend time doing something or being with someone that you love and feel deeply connected to.  The time and devotion you put into this project or relationship will fill you with joy and inner strength.

Today is about giving and receiving and the balance between them.  The energies you’re experiencing could be indicating that you show gratitude for what you have received by giving to charity or helping another with resources.  Pay it back.  It could be that if you have been giving of yourself you will see your effort returned.  Don’t be too proud to accept help from those that have more.  What goes around, comes around.  Pay attention to how you use your energy and resources.  If you feel resentful or exhausted, look for ways to give in a more balanced manner.  If you are not getting what you expect in a situation, look at what you are giving.  In relationships, pay attention to how you give and take with the individual you have in mind.  Is your relationship fair, or is one person most of the taking and little of the giving?  Even if we have very little in a material sense, there is always some way we can give.  So, be generous today.  Give time or money as a way of expressing gratitude for all you’ve been given in the past.  Your physical resources and health are both forms of energy.  Keep that stream of energy flowing.  It will keep coming back to you.

The cards say that today, be the King of Pentacles:  he is a successful and ambitious person.  He is practical and careful in business affairs.  He’s a manager or owner of resources.  Thus, he is a wealthy man because he’s careful with his money, but doesn’t mind spending it on life’s luxuries.  He is a sensual person who treasures comfort … generous, but always considers what’s in it for him.  Well, he didn’t get to where he is by giving everything away!  This King is a thoughtful, considerate lover, husband and father.  A family man who is calm and patient, but can get upset when his loved ones act erratically.  Today, spend some time thinking about your financial situation.  You have a good practical energy around you that’s great for organizing your finances and making money decisions.  Be sure to use some of that energy to notice and appreciate your many blessings as well.

Be gentle with yourself today and be sure to set aside some time for daydreaming.  It’s okay to say “no” to invitations, or to leave an unpleasant or uncomfortable situation.  Having good emotional boundaries is essential to restoring your energy on days like today.  Today, you encounter the energies of someone you know, encounter or some aspect of yourself that is youthful, sensitive, imaginative … with a heart open to love and messages from her Higher Self.  You, or this person you might meet, is emotionally needy and feels unfulfilled when not romantically involved, though willing to share her deepest feelings and dearest dreams.  This person has a strong desire to express herself creatively and can feel stifled and unhappy when she doesn’t have time for creative play.  Pay attention to messages that come through in your dreams … or even a love letter!

Work on a project that is important to you today.  You have a very practical and strategic mindset that will serve you well.  Don’t get caught up in little details … keep on moving and producing.  You can come back to refine later.  This card also signifies the appearance of a person you know or will encounter or some aspect of yourself that is present or to call upon now.   This Knight is cautious, slow-moving and dependable.  He is very careful about everything he does, and sometimes gets so caught up in the details that progress is halted.  The progress he does make, however, is sturdy and long-lasting.  He is a loyal and reliable friend.  He may sometimes be boring or stubborn, but he gives well-thought out and practical advice.  He can be controlling and may value principles and rules over all else.  He values comfort and security and loves luxury.  He is able to take what he’s learned from academic studies and past experiences and use it in very practical ways.

You are very clear headed today.  It’s a good time to look at the big picture of your life.  What do you most deeply value?  Are your values reflected in how you spend your time and energy?  If not, today is a great day to rearrange your priorities.  You will be presented with an opportunity to use your mind to cut through obstacles.  There may be a problem to solve which will lead to personal growth.  You will have the mental focus to make new plans, develop new strategies and commit to effective action.  A new truth will occur to you.  You will understand something in a new way.  You may gain a fresh perspective that is clear and true.  This might be an opportunity to cut away what is unnecessary and leave it behind.  This is an opportunity and a necessity to do the right thing.  Like all Aces, the opportunity must be grasped in order to develop.

Nurture yourself and your loved ones today through practical, loving action.  Think of your chores as sacred.  Honor your environment by cleaning it.  Bless your body by eating some nutritious and delicious food and enjoying some gorgeous exercise.  Bestow a little extra care upon your family, housemates, or pets.  The care you invest today will only serve to multiply your abundance.  A person you know or will encounter … or some aspect of yourself that is present, or to be called upon now … is exerting influence in your life now.  This person is very practical and organized, successful in business and in creating a secure, comfortable home for loved ones.  Making sensible decisions paves the way to steady, sustainable progress … therefore, remain well grounded and emotionally balanced as you go about your day.  You will experience feelings of care and the desire to protect others, much like a nurturing mother might feel while caring for her family and friends.  Your concern for the environment inspires you to be more efficient in the usage of your resources.  Do spend time outside in a more natural setting and enjoy the peace.

Today is about nurturing your creativity. Do something you love to do: make art, cook a meal, beautify your home, spend time with your children, work in your garden. Wherever you focus your loving attention today there will be healthy growth. Now is a time to create. Your environment offers you the abundance you need to feel nurtured and comfortable so that you can manifest your vision in the world. Inspiration is all around you. Be sure to nourish yourself with whole foods. Indulge all of your senses. Connect with nature by working in a garden or deeply inhaling the scent of trees and flowers. Connecting with creative, empowered people will enhance your creative spirit. It is a time to celebrate your fertile, sensual, creative self. Your mother or the general principal of mothering may be significant now.

Today is a day for feeling good, having fun and being happy.  Think about what activities make you feel the most content and fulfilled and do that.  Maybe it’s reading a book in a sunny spot … maybe it’s spending time with a dear friend … perhaps even creating art.  It might be helpful to think back to what you loved doing as a child.  It’s a time to reveal everything.  You will benefit by sharing your true feelings and thoughts.  You will have greater clarity and understanding.  It’s a time to celebrate your accomplishments and share them with the world.  Don’t be afraid to shine.  Let your inner child show.  Be playful, creative and curious.  Align your actions and words with your authentic self.  Do what makes you feel excited and warm inside.  Enjoy this burst of energy and vitality because the outcome/answer to your query is “YES”.  Enjoy a wonderful day!

O Happy Day!  Wishes coming true today!  Good times and happiness are in store for you this weekend and in the days ahead.  Things important to you that you wished would come about are beginning to manifest into reality.  At work, projects are turning out better than originally conceived and new and better employment possibilities are emerging for you.  Your love life is also improving and you’re about to meet people that are kind, interesting and pleasant in conversation.  So, if you’re searching for new love, go out and mingle.  Long term relationships are also receiving a boost of romance, which improves the quality of your relationship in an emotionally profound way.  You’ve been good with minding your finances, so the rewards you will now receive will be most welcome.  But, if you haven’t minded the signs and have been blowing your budget with unexpected expenses, just keep the faith in knowing that this, too, shall pass.  Your health has been steadily improving since you’ve been listening to your physicians and health advisors, and you will enjoy good energy while playing hard.  Life is fun when the body feels healthy.  Keep up with using positive affirmations and visualizations to continue enriching your life on every level.  Trust yourself and dream big … you’ve got the mojo to make it all happen your way!

 

The royal gentleman has come around for another visit!  You remember this man … kind, loving, compassionate and operates on an even keel.  What a great person to kick off this weekend with … you’re practically assured a wonderful time.  You’re feeling “in the pink”, thanks to your close attention paid to your health advisors and physicians, and enjoying better health these days.  But, don’t allow your exuberance to run away with you where your pocketbook is concerned … refrain from doing any wild spending this weekend.  Remain conservative with your resources and know that one day soon you will have better opportunities to reward yourself for today’s vigilance in the days to come.

You are at another crossroads because you’re leveling up.  Choices … and indecision about wanting to do something, but not quite knowing what that something is, or how to go about accomplishing the task.  Clear your head.  Step back, BREATHE full breaths and relax those shoulders.  Allow your mind to clear with each out-breath to let go of that need to control life, situations, people and things.  REassess/REevaluate and then REdirect your energies … this is the best way to utilize the influences of Mercury REtrograde to get you through this juncture.  REmove notions of self-fulfilling prophecies and pay attention to how you allow yourself to say or think about your life.  Those prophecies ought to be about REnewal and bear some REsemblance to the life you really wish to be.

All the changes you’ve been experiencing over the past several days leaves you feeling a bit nostalgic today and looking back on the way things used to be, back in your salad days.  It’s important not to dwell on the good ‘ole days because those past experiences paved the way to where you are today.  Today, be creative at work and at home.  Try new things.  It’s important now to not be stuck in the past, and that includes going back to ex-lovers.  You are about evolution, not devolution.

 

Change, change, change!  Trying to hold too tightly to the status quo can be disastrous now.  Roll with the changes.  It is likely that some people/situations that you counted on as support are falling away or have fallen away.  This does not necessarily spell disaster IF you have been working with solid foundations all along.  However, if you’ve built castles in the air those might come crashing down today.  Take heart:  it’s all about your perception, your interpretation of your circumstances.  Is the glass half empty, or half full?  What has fallen away you will be able to replace with much better … your dreams will become more reachable and goals more realistic with some of these fantasies cleared from your space.  You’ll get through today just fine.  Faith and trust in what you know and listening to your intuition more closely will ensure your success.  As things settle down, however, keep your own counsel and use your words sparingly.  People will tend to be argumentative today, so take care to choose your battles.  It’s best to simply  tune out The Noise and walk away with poise!

Your finances are flowing better and will be flowing better throughout September.  You are feeling strength from recent hard-won success in your projects and endeavors, and that means others are appreciating the fruits of your work performance.  As your finances continue to even out and stabilize to another level, make the effort to refrain from excessive spending.  In fact, if you can focus on saving a bit more now, you will be set, less stressed and worry-free when that next rainy day comes rolling around.  Your spiritual views are taking on more definition as you continue nurturing and growing your perception about the Way It Is.  Embrace change and accept new information to continue broadening your horizons.

I love The Empress card … it represents the nurturing, motherly, feminine energies of passion, abundance, fertility and material luxury.  You know, to be passionate about something means that you are willing to suffer to achieve that which your heart most desires … that is Passion … and haven’t you suffered through adapting to recent changes in your life?  And, like the powerful energies that fuel feminine power, The Empress is watery, hard to fathom, mysterious and pregnant with possibilities.  Get back in touch with your quieter, feminine side … listen to your intuition … give priority to emotions and passions.  This is a sign of coming abundance.  People are going to be more attracted to you than usual and in every sense, so you are likely to find people on your doorstep wanting your advice and/or your shoulder for comfort.  This is beneficial to you because now you have a window into how others perceive you … and you have become someone with wisdom and with a lot to offer.  Be compassionate, be motherly … share your hard-won perspectives on life and know that your wisdom and caring has value and is valuable.  Listen more closely to your intuition, because your Higher Self is reaching for a connection with your waking consciousness.  If listening closely means being alone for a bit at some point today, DO IT.  You are making that coveted connection with your “inner voice” … this is the prize.

Perseverance pays off in the forms of beneficial returns on your energy investments.  Since we’re talking Pentacles (money matters, mostly), this could take the form of returned money or returns on investments of time, effort and energy put into a relationship.  It’s Autumn and it’s Harvest Time!  As you are enjoying the fruits of your labors, give yourself time to step back to re-evaluate your relationships; this is an important part of tending to your garden.

A ray of sunshine breaking through your clouds.  Yes, things are changing and for most folks, the changes are positive and welcomed.  Of course, change itself is difficult and, at times, traumatic.  The feeling today is very spiritual and karmically oriented.  Embrace the truth that change is part of the cyclical nature of Life.  Those problems, headaches and stress of yesterday?  It’s all becoming water under the bridge.  Pay attention to your perspectives, as they are also changing.  Moving on and moving forward means experiencing the Now … not continuing the habit of obsessing on past experience or worrying about “what-if’s”.   Live in this now, grateful and appreciative of all that is now available to you, and realize that much of your life is outside of your control … and that is also okay.  Roll with it.  Accept.  It’s very possible that you will decide to leave your job if you are currently working, even if it’s a good job, because your heart is no longer in it.  You are being called to follow your dream, no matter what it is.  If you have a desire to do something different, but don’t know anybody who does what you want to do, then be bold.  Call up someone who does what you dream of doing and ask him/her if you can have lunch with them or shadow him/her for a few hours.  You’ll be surprised how often such a request is met positively, and perhaps even welcomed.  Financially, the Wheel is generally a good omen for anyone who has been having a rough time for a while with finances.  It means that your circumstances are very likely to change, markedly, for the better.  However, if you have had a long prosperous period, then consider the opposite possibility that your income will drop a little.  And, if that’s the case, be prepared for the rainy day that’s coming.  This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, as you also know that it’s all about keeping the balance.

Ah, he (or she) is back and behaving with less than ethical intentions, perhaps even prying into someone’s life where he (or she) ought not.  Feel like someone’s watching you?  You’re probably right.  So, resist the impulse to behave similarly regarding another.  Your employer is observing your work and conduct closely.  Do your job and continue being mindful of the details: perseverance.  Be careful with new-found spiritual friends.  The truth is that you don’t necessarily need a leader from whom to learn and grow your spirituality.

It’s Sunday, a day of rest and relaxation … and so, if you can swing it, why not take a day trip today?  Today is a brand new day and you’re feeling lighter after going through some heavy changes this past week.  You’ve made headway on some important projects in your life (including yourself!), so you’ve earned today’s reward.  Take your energy, your exuberance, and do something fun with your time that allows you to travel and explore.  New ideas and perspectives are on your horizon, so use your energy to delve deeper.

One of my favorite cards of the entire Tarot deck, I identify with the High Priestess because it is a very spiritual card … often with sexual overtones.  What does that mean?  You are going to be much more physically attractive to others, and that closer attention to you will allow you to inspire others with your insightful wisdom gained from esoteric knowledge you’ve been gathering for some time now.  And so, do rely on your intuition and inner knowledge (right brain), rather than your conscious mind or intellect (left brain).  You’re dreaming again, so pay attention to what your sub-/supra-consciousness is communicating to your conscious self at this time.  Synchronicities are likely to occur, or rather, be noticed now.  For men, the High Priestess represents a woman that a man will want badly, but whom he may not be able to get.  Pay attention to the messages that flash at you from all sorts of places.  Use this time to further expand your spiritual knowledge and understanding in ways you have not explored before now.  Talk to others who have already taken that plunge to get their perspectives and inspire you to move out of your comfort zone.  Be daring here:  it’s to your benefit.

We are rebalancing as we continue to adjust to changes, so it’s no surprise that today we might be feeling less than secure.  Just remember that there is always assistance available when you need it … from both sides of the Veil.  You might feel alone, but you always have the choice to change that feeling.  Reach out, rather than dwell on feeling like you’ve been left out in the cold.  You are not the only one feeling ill at ease at this time.  Ask and you shall receive, friends.  Remind yourself that nothing lasts forever, especially the downtimes as this card illustrates.  Stay mindful of the reality that we are all connected and that allowing others to assist you is your blessing to THEM as well as to yourself.  Try to not do it all yourself and have faith that things will improve, because you know deep down that they will!

The Magician is all about making higher, and better, use of all of one’s Mana … Power that comes from Within:  spiritual, emotional, from the supraconsciousness.  After all the changes that we’ve been going through these past several days, we are now embarking on another level of our journey.  Today comes the Aloha lesson “Na Mahu’i Nui” (great expectations).  Great expectations often turn out as planned disappointment. Focus on expectation to put you in the state of “what isn’t.” The heart is naturally going to react to the mind’s preoccupation with “what isn’t” with disappointment, anger, frustration. Your mantra is i keia manawa … stay in this moment.  You may notice many synchronicities that point to deep spiritual events taking place despite superficial appearances.  Knowledge, strength and inspiration are yours to claim to meet your challenges.  Step into your Mana now and consider undertaking some form of spiritual study that you’ve thought about, but put off undertaking for another occasion in the future.  Today may very well be this beginning.

The changes you’re experiencing cannot gel into your renewed reality unless and until you move on emotionally and, in some instances, physically.  It is a choice to leave a situation that no longer serves you.  Though that parting may make you feel sad, know that this choice is in your best interests.  Renewed good times lie ahead.  If your gut is telling you to move on, then trust yourself and DO IT.  If your situation or relationship is fixable, then explore your options on how to rebuild from this point forward.  Give yourself some breathing room and carve out some alone-time today.  You’ll find depth and wisdom in your solitude … and then, just B R E A T H E …

 

After rolling with the milieu of Changes harkened by The Tower yesterday, we find ourselves once again before another portal entry into a new level of experience.  The energies are all about transformation, renewal, cleansing and liberation … and they are manifesting in a myriad of ways.  We’ve explores similar avenues when the Death card came up several weeks ago.  The bottom line in each life situation  … with work, love, finance, health and spirituality … is releasing situations, relationships and ideas that limit your potential to expand your knowledge base and, thus, understanding of all around you.  You can do it and, if you need assistance, there is always someone waiting in the wings with the ability.  Remember, change is inevitable … struggle is an option.

Change.  It’s on your horizon, if not already overhead.  Nothing ominous to fear.  Rather, a warning that trying to hang on too tightly to the status quo can be disastrous now.  This doesn’t have to be a dire warning, as change is a fact of life.  Trying to prevent change is like rowing upstream without oars.   So, roll with the changes to keep your head above water.  It’s likely the some people or situations you previously counted on are no longer there to support you in the same way as in the past … it’s only problematic if you allow it to be.  No worries.  You’ll get through this part of your journey all right, especially when you remember that you have all the resources you need within you.  People will feel argumentative.  Do not engage, if you can help it.  If you’re feeling pressure build, take a break, get up off that chair and walk it off outside.  Give yourself the opportunity to release so that you can maintain balance with a more positive attitude.  This is the way to continue receiving new understandings and insights in spite of static in the lines.

Things may seem somewhat confusing to you now.  You may find it hard to understand where you are coming from, much less what others are thinking and feeling!  You need to try to sit with the uncertainty, don’t try to force things or people to do things before they are ready.  Think of this card as the “Pisces” of the tarot deck.  You are definitely in a more psychic and intuitive phase than usual, so it will be important for you to trust your instincts and your impressions, even if you don’t know where they are coming from.  Also, not that you need to be mistrusting, but it will be helpful for you to realize that when this card appears, it is possible that all is not what it seems.  If you feel you cannot trust someone, then you probably can’t.  Go with your gut.  If you are waiting on an answer from someone, it may, unfortunately, take longer than you would like.  Try to remain patient.  This is a very spiritual time and a great time to get a reading, healing work, or other helpful input from spiritual types.  You are more psychically open than usual now; pay attention to your thoughts and feelings and to flashes of information that comes from out of the Blue.  This is also a great time to access great spiritual books of the world — you’ll absorb more details now than usual.  Enjoy!

In case you missed him last week, here he is again.  This Knight of Pentacles is bringing encouraging news of a practical nature.  Today’s theme is “sticking to the basics”.  Pentacles is the tarot suit governing materiality, and the Knight represents a grounding influence.  Now is not the time to color beyond the lines, so to speak.  Sticking to procedure at work serves you best at this time.  In money matters, you will be enriched from unexpected sources … perhaps a lucky Lotto ticket or a raise … but, don’t quit your day job.  That said, today is not a good day for gambling or any other financial risk.  Spiritually, you might be feeling a bit overwhelmed from the insights bombarding you the other day.  Try breaking down those chunks into manageable nuggets because it isn’t necessary to decipher your entire life in one evening.  You are in the midst of change:  change for the better.

 

I love this card and its message!  The World, or The Universe (depending on your tarot deck), can signify that you have attained a stage of sought-after fulfillment.  You are feeling triumphant and ecstatic from the energies of your achievement.  Congratulations!  You, journeying as The Fool metaphysically, completed a level of learning and understanding.  It’s an excellent time to reflect upon and return your abundance, because you know that such actions spark even greater expansions of personal consciousness farther along your Journey.  Yes, this feels like a time of completion.  You’ve worked hard and you are almost nearing the end of your Journey in some fashion.  Don’t quit now that you’re almost there!  You’re definitely in need of well-deserved rest and relaxation, so don’t be afraid to take it.  You are getting closer to identifying your monadic “I AM” presence at your deepest spiritual levels.  Get ready to be bombarded with flashes of clear spiritual insight during this time.  Keep a notebook handy and record these perceptions and ideas.  Share and discuss them with others, even if your only outlet for that is online.  We are all on a spiritual journey, and your insights are likely to be valuable for others at this time.

 

There is a woman in your life not to be trifled with.  She has dark hair and dark eyes.  Her message is that you need to be more forceful and honest in some situation to get your needs met.  You may need to put your foot down.  Your instincts are serving you well.  You already know what it is you want and need, and now you just have to go after it.  Be mindful of other people’s boundaries as you are doing so … the energies feel forceful, which some people might find abrasive.  However, at work, even though you may be very clear on what needs to happen in your work environment, this is not the time to broadcast your impressions.  Don’t overact to any perceived slights or disrespect.  If you’re looking for work, you’re in the space of being able to present yourself very well.  Look to the women in your life to point you in the right direction.  In love, be aware of the impulse to be too forceful.  Your mother or mother-like figure may interfere in your relationship, whether she means to or not.  Figure out where your boundaries lie in this and let her know.  A strong woman is about to play an important role in your financial life.  There is a lot that you can learn from her, if you can be open to what she has to say.  Repressing your emotions will negatively impact your health.  So, if that’s what you’re doing now, balance carefully the how, when and where you vent your emotional reactions.  Anything that reduces stress now is helpful.  Pick your battles.  Remain in the moment.  Emotions are the gateway to opening up your spiritual life.  Think about what you are feeling and why.  Then, stop thinking and feel your way through things.  Keeping a dream diary is essential, as it provides particular insights into your supra-consciousness.  Yeah … it’s all about body, mind and SPIRIT.
