Card of the Day – 8 of Swords – Wednesday, July 11, 2018

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

When I first began this blog, over three years ago, this was the most frequent card which I would draw as the Tarot Card of the Day. Nowadays, when it shows up, it is less frequent, and also taking on a whole new vibe. Tomorrow is a New Moon Supermoon Partial Solar Eclipse in Cancer, which promises not to disappoint, especially since there is so much more happening than just a straight up typical New Moon.

Saturn (restriction), will be in a harmonious trine with Uranus (shock, surprise, release) at the time of the New Moon, and obviously you are already feeling this. Pluto also is in on the action, poised to transform your life in some dramatic fashion; I discuss this in my Eclipse Season #2 of 2018 video, exclusive to the $10 tier on Patreon https://patreon.com/tarotbycecelia – Over the coming weeks, you are being released from situations which…

The things we learned (but donʻt know yet that we learned)

ReverendRoxie22's avatarThe Ghetto Allegory

IMG_20180413_185714

The things that we learn from our experiences are the things that also, we teach…

This is not news to anyone, the fact that the things that we learn, that we do not know we are learning, that we go through and that feel like our lives have turned on us are the things that, as these people who help others learn to heal their lives, we also will teach.

Right now, I am learning the fine art of letting go, am relearning and honing my own prowess with Hoʻoponopono healing, and am pretty much seeing in all of it more of who, and more importantly, what, I Am.

What I was reminded of, throughout these last three months, is that when there are things that allow someone elseʻs ego to thrive, and when it feels like your soul is in need of rest, that it is time, right in…

New Moon Supermoon Partial Solar Eclipse 20° Cancer – Thursday, July 12, 2018 10:48pm EST

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

This is an emotion-packed New Moon with so much happening in the skies, that it will be difficult to know which events to attribute to what. Nevertheless, it is all designed to move you along toward your hopes and dreams. Success is possible only when you truly know what it is that you hope to achieve. Given all of the retrogrades, and a trine, and an opposition, etc., you will likely worry about the outcomes because you can not see everything which is going on behind the scenes. Do your best to remain grounded through this and focus on your own security and power, not in a selfish way, but more in a self-care type of way. You can be of no use to others when you do not take care of you. Balance the give-and-take in your life; eclipses do their thing by clearing away what is no longer…

Astrology | Jupiter Direct July 10

JUPITER turns Direct July 10 @ 13 degrees 20 minutes of Scorpio

Jupiter by Juno NASA Astrology of Jupiter Tara Greeneafter being Retrograde since March 8th @ 23 degrees 13 Scorpio.  Now everything that has been brewing percolating decomposing reconstructing dying and being recycled in the collective unconscious and in our own psyche’s will begin to reflesh itself back to life rising like a Phoenix.

Jupiters color is PURPLE. A purple heart is a high medal for bravery in war. Purple is the color of royalty. Retrograde Jupiter made our emotional and soul energy held back. But we are about to pass GO.

JUPITER is really revved up as he turns DIRECT. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, optimism, trust, faith, higher intentions and truth. Key issues that Jupiter rules – legal issues- judges- Trump just appointed his Supreme Court pick. Immigrants-sexual harassment cases- pedophilia etc. all will move forwards now.

Card of the Day – 10 of Cups – Tuesday, July 10, 2018

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

Jupiter is standing still in the sky today, and at some point in your day, is returning to direct motion. It is our planet of expansion, our giver of gifts and good luck, now poised to start dropping its blessings to many, giving some a double dose of good luck along the way. In two days, we will have a New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse in Cancer making many themes this week appear to be more emotionally-based. The 10 of Cups feels appropriate here as it sort of ties the two of these together to move you closer to the happiness you seek.

The 10 of Cups is a card of emotional fulfillment, and, it is entirely possible (let’s not forget yesterday’s Star card), to see some incredible highs, even if they do not directly affect us, as well as some lows, for we are well into a roller coaster…

Astrology | New Moon in Cancer, Solar Eclipse, July 12th, 2018 ~ Ascension Process

L'Aura Pleiadian's avatarThe New Divine Humanity

The New Moon and Partial Solar Eclipse on July 12th, 2018 at 11:47pm ADT. is a transformational PORTAL ~ that you will be entering.

This is a Powerful Transition into the stepping into the awareness of your Divine Ascended Self ~ fully realized. The levels of transformative powers through this New moon, Pluto and Partial Solar Eclipse, will allow any fears hidden, to surface.

When fears arise the release may feel like a crisis emotionally and mentally. Non resistance is the key to allow change, with the greatest ease.  The old way of functioning through ego in the 3rd and 4th dimensions are becoming extinct.

Entering timelessness, releasing all fears related to time, allows the ease and grace of your eternal Self to be adopted of sorts, by you consciously. When this taking on occurs, the awareness of the self who existed in the 3rd and 4th Dimension, becomes fully…

Astrology | Sun Trine Neptune Garden of Eden

Tara Greene www.taratarot.com's avatarTara Greene,Tarot,Astrology,Psychic

July 8 A Taurus Moon keeps us grounded and enjoying being in the Garden of Eden.

Water Trine of Cancer Sun and Neptune in Pisces is exact a beautiful dreamy creative romantic idealistic energy. A great time to meditate to go with the flow to be in water to receive like the Holy Grail the divine’s love for yourself. Psychic and emotional energies are high and we are super sensitive to love and compassion. 

Jupiter Retrorgade is also pulled into this energy creating a Grand Water Trine. 

Jupiter is tres powerful as he is almost stationary about to turn direct on July 10th. This is a lovely washing cleansing energy.

Later in the Day, the Bull Moon trines Pluto in the sign of the Goat to form an Earth Trine.

These are lovely positive aspects and the earth trine balances out the water trine.

If you have planets at 12-20 degrees…

Card of the Day – Queen of Cups – Sunday, July 8, 2018

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

The Queen of Cups is one of my favorite Queens; it is perhaps a tossup between her and the Queen of Pentacles. She is the emmbodiment of all that is good, kind, compassionate, and right with the world. She possesses a basic calm between both inner and outer emotions which makes her the perfect ally in times of crisis, often counted among first responders and medical professionals. Whether this is you, or someone you know, and it can be male or female, there is a sense here today of taking care of the children, and being admired by them. The gentleness of this person shines forth a light to bless the little ones.

If you are seeking a new job, and have been wary as to what to do now that Mercury has entered shadow, as it prepares to retrograde on the 26th, never fear. Go ahead and live your…

Card of the Day – 5 of Wands – Saturday, July 7, 2018

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

Progress is the name of the game. Yesterday, you were tasked with the assessment of all of your current projects, and reminded not to begin anything new. Today, Mercury has entered its shadow phase as it prepares to retrograde alongside the current gang hanging out in the retrograde column. There are currently six retrograde heavenly bodies, and thankfully we will see Jupiter go direct before Mercury officially begins. The energies right now can often feel as though it is a bit of a struggle, especially lacking the forward motion of Mars energy to give one that extra push.

Change is not impossible for you now; take what you sent out yesterday and work toward your goals. Progress is real and possible at this time, provided you have not overloaded yourself for the long haul. It is possible that you will encounter dissenting opinions along the way; try your best to…

The Forager’s: Foraging for Summertime Herbs

Crooked Bear Creek Organic Herbs's avatarCrooked Bear Creek Organic Herbs

Go beyond the confines of the garden and into the wild to find some of nature’s most valuable medicine.

Summer is the perfect time to stock up on nature’s healing gifts. But all too often we walk right by these treasures, not recognizing them as valuable plants. Learning how to identify and then use a variety of edible and medicinal plants in your region can open up a world of botanicals, not only providing you with access to important medicine but also helping you familiarize yourself with the wilderness that abounds.

Five Rules for Sustainable Foraging

Before you head out into the fields and forests to harvest plants, you need to know a bit about foraging ethics, as well as the dangers that certain plants can pose. In an environmentally fragile world, you want to proceed without taking from nature in ways that are harmful.

  1. Properly identify the plant
