Just like the Death card, the Devil isn’t a scary card … it is a sign that you need to look beyond the superficial appearance of things to get to the deeper truth of the situation within.  And, as with any situation or relationship with which (or whom) you feel restrained, you ultimately hold the keys to the answers inside your heart.  So, don’t give up hope because there are always options available to you … it’s always your choice.  You are traveling yet another path of the Fool’s journey toward more expansive horizons, and so it is natural to feel that you are not in control of your present situation.  For every action (or inaction!) there is a definite reaction.  Now is not the time to sit on your laurels or in a corner and choose to do nothing.  Make small moves in this now … that is forward movement … and allow yourself the feeling that you are in control.  Consider the trade-offs of moving away from situations or relationships that are familiar, but now uncomfortable because they constrain you.  You aren’t trapped unless you consent to being trapped.  What are you afraid of experiencing if you move away from the familiar?  Allow your ambition to empower you to act upon what is truly within your heart.

Ah, we’ve levelled up to yet another new beginning!  You have learned a lot about yourself these past two moon cycles and with this Pink Full Moon, you are viewing today from a more expansive spiritual perspective.  You’ve been minding the signs along the path that indicated your need to pare down on the material and focus inward, and this approach brings you to a much sought-after opportunity to uncover another aspect of yourself.  Those ideas that sparked projects or uniquely creative work opportunities are taking shape nicely.  Don’t worry if others don’t “get you” or your perspective.  The important thing is that you are trusting the direction you are taking your life now.  Enjoy feeling this freedom … unfurl those sails and head for the horizon.  Finances are continuing to improve, and this adds to your feeling of security in pursuing your present heading.  You might have to go this first leg of your new journey alone, however, so don’t feel badly if you cannot commit to new relationships at this time.  Once you get your bearings, you’ll have plenty of opportunities for new relationships ahead.  This is a time to step back and look at the Big Picture and explore what is before you.  Enjoy the exploration knowing that you are broadening your horizons of understanding.

Today is a great day at work.  You may be asked to travel and do take advantage of the opportunity, if you can.  Energies are upbeat, positive and leave you feeling enthusiastic and confident that you are reaching your goals.  Projects are likely to be or are turning out successful and better than envisioned.  Take pride in your good work.  If you’re job hunting, then you are likely going to receive positive results from your interviews in the form of job offers.  Continue to expand communication with your partner and realize a tighter bond of commitment between you both.  If you’re dating, you may meet a light-haired person through work and that will catch your fancy.  Your money is flowing easier than it did yesterday, so take advantage of this opportunity to save a little more by continuing to cut extravagant expenses here and there.  When you go through your exercising today, enjoy the energy burst in the form of enthusiasm during your session, but take care not to overdo it and sprain or otherwise injure yourself.  Spiritually, you discover yet another way to look at your life and will feel inspired to pursue that avenue.  You will also feel gratitude in this further expansion of your spirit, so be sure to pay it forward.

Did you awaken feeling anxious and fearful?  What makes you worry?  The number 9 tells you to slow your roll to relieve the stress.  Breathe and calm yourself.  Is what you are worried about something within your power or control?  If so, you can do something about it now.  If not, examine the situation for something that can be changed to make things more workable.  If you are placing more stock into making your life more than what it is at the moment, alleviate your worry by choosing to focus on the ordinary things that you might be overlooking and taking for granted as being a part of your life, and take joy and comfort in recognizing the beauty in those things now.  Is something troubling you about your relationship?  Don’t ignore your gut feelings … if it feels unhealthy, then perhaps now is the time to address the problem directly.  Slow down and look critically at what’s happening.  Find out what resources you need and use them.  Stress is unhealthy for mind, body and spirit, so consider possible ways to change your current lifestyle and spending habits.  Take the time to meditate so that these questions and possible solutions become clear in your mind.  It’s time to silence that monkey mind.

Today is going to be a great day!  Men around you are thinking well of you and this vibe inspires your ambition to do more and be more.  Perhaps a lighter haired man will step forward and volunteer to mentor you.  You can trust him and count on his advice, though he might be a bit rough around the edges.  He will offer a good contrast for you to gauge how you approach situations in comparison to his approach.  At work, things are running smoother and you are feeling focused and busy … if you’re job hunting, prospects look good.  Your relationship with your partner is strong and s/he is feeling warmly caring, protective and committed … so if you’ve been focusing a lot on work, make the time to acknowledge your partner’s support with some romantic face time.  You might discover that you have a particular talent or proficiency in skills that will encourage you to branch out and explore.  Check it out by reading up and doing some research … this direction might be the beginning of a new business venture of your own unique creation.  Boldness in pursuing your dreams has power within it; just don’t go overboard with your enthusiasm and overdo it.  This is a great time to enjoy your expanding Spirit … so commend yourself for being persistent in allowing your Self to just Be.  Your consistency and persistence in past efforts is finally paying off.

Consider the feelings of others before you act.  You might need to change something major in your behaviour, thoughts and/or expectations.  Don’t try to overextend your reach.  You may find that a coworker or supervisor might be expressing himself/herself a bit forcefully (as in sounding opinionated).  Its good you know your boundaries, but don’t be so defensive in your communications.  That person is simply doing his/her job and it might be you being overly sensitive.  Of course, don’t be so reactionary and allow yourself to swing too far the other way and be somebody’s rug.  In finance, the King tells you that you must look realistically at your financial situation and that procrastination does not serve you.  On the other hand, if your finances are doing well, then perhaps it’s time to behave more generously with others even though you might not feel like it.  Your actions today plant the seeds for further success tomorrow.  Follow-up on any health problems you might be experiencing, but do some ahead research before seeing your physician.  Seek out new sources of information and insight.  It benefits you to be proactive in your actions now.

The beginning of a major phase change from yesterday continues to reverberate within you today.  You’ve gone through this uphill leg of your journey before and here we are again, doubting our Selves and our choices.  The whole point of detaching from the negativity of former relationships and work situations is to continue onward and focused in this moment.  Try not to allow this unsettled feeling affect your temperament.  Maintaining the balance is always going to be your answer, rather than picking a fight because you’re angry about a situation.  This is yet another test in how you handle your Self as you continue expanding your experience horizon.  Don’t add to the angst of a situation.  Rather, find a way to blow off steam without taking heads.  You will reap better rewards tomorrow if you’re less reactionary and careless today.
