William Morris, born today 183 years ago, was a textile designer, poet, novelist, translator and socialist. He was a major contributor to the revival of British textile and the literary genre of the modern fantasy. I was first introduced to him at a exhibit in London on exhibit over 30 years ago. But I fell for him years later after I read this quote: I do not want art for a few any more than education for a few, or freedom for a few. I came across it again this week and thought wow this is still a statement that still needs to be heard.
P.S. I have added some of his designs to your signs cause they are pretty. Remember, signs with * it’s a big week for you.
Aries – Page of Pentacles – During the last two weeks you have been lightening up some of your dark corners of thought. In so doing you have found that you need to polish up some of your thought processes.

I use this phrase by its definition to await a seemingly inevitable event, especially one that is not desirable. I use it to represent my anxiety and all of its negative connotations.
*Aries – The Moon – The Moon’s lessons are around lightening up the dark. Put into action, this can look as complex as seeing how your subconscious is controlling your life because you are pushing down emotions that need illumination, or as simple as buying a battery light for your dark closet.
Taurus – Knight of Cups – Last week was all work. This week your heart is asking for a turn. The Knight of Cups wants to balance you out by reminding you to pay attention to your emotional needs. You all have a big heart, but sometimes you get too caught up in doing. So you need to make the first move, put on some 
Aries – Four of Pentacles – This week, you will need to navigate how to use your resources wisely. Try not to spend all your energy in the beginning of the week or on the first project you encounter. This week pace yourself, so that you don’t hurt someone’s feelings when you get frustrated about not having enough time or energy to spread around.
Taurus – Seven of Pentacles – Put on your gloves and get to work. If you keep a steady pace this week, you will get loads done. The challenge with the Seven of Pentacles is in dealing with feeling overwhelmed with all you have to do. The best way to tackle projects is to divide them up into small chunks.
