Tarot and Artcast for Sept 28-Oct 11

September 27, 2025 Nina

Every year I pick a photo contest to highlight. This year it is the Ocean Photographer of the Year Awarded by OceanGraphic. The winner is Yury Ivanov’s photo of two amphipods from the Cyproideidae family (above), each measuring around 3mm in body length, resting on a coral. Commonly called ‘ladybugs of the sea’, they are related to shrimp and crabs. Ivanov speaks about the process of taking this photograph. “It required a lot of patience and precision to compose and light the shot properly. It was taken at a depth of 19 meters, during a sunny day with calm sea conditions. In total, it took me six dives to get the shot I wanted. The result reveals an intimate glimpse of underwater life that is often overlooked.”

Your pondering: Lately I have not been feeling present or possibly not wanting to be. So, to be in the now I am immersing myself in the small stuff. I stop to say hi to the bees, I spend extra minutes petting our animals, I hold my mother’s hand, I watch a leaf fall all the way to the ground.

And I am working to attract more bugs into my garden, well at least some of them (lol I am not fond of the blood sucking variety.) Every fall I let my garden seed out and create little piles of nature’s detritus to give the insects a place to overwinter or a comfy place to lay their eggs. And this fall our little acre is alive with chirps, clicks and buzzes. These small co-habitants are vital to a healthy ecosystem. And as we approach winter these sounds and visitations will go dormant. So knowing this helps me connect to being present- that the small things are a place to find joy or at the very least contentment. What is your small stuff?

Solar System highlights

We start the week with the moon in Capricorn – good for all things that have to do with money making. Thursday it shifts into Aquarius – think outside the box. Saturday the moon is in Pisces – daydream. On Monday October 6^th the moon moves into Aries – time to create momentum. The Full moon on October 7^th is also in Aries. Full moon is about completion, so try to push a project to the next level or finish it. Then Wednesday October 8^th it shifts to Taurus – ground yourself. On Friday and through the weekend the moon is in Gemini – communication and friends are highlighted.

Mercury is in Libra until Oct 5^th. This energy is best used to work on balancing and equalizing listening and speaking. Then it moves into Scorpio until October 28^th. A great time to bounce ideas around, strategize, research and truth seek. Just be careful that you do your research with a delicate touch when it involves emotionally fraught subjects.

Mars is Scorpio until November 4^th. This aspect is a perfect time to work on our passion projects. Venus is in Virgo helps us focus on making our environment welcoming.

Lastly, Saturn is back in Pisces until February of 2026. So, we are back to our structures having trouble being…well… structured. And I am sending out extra feel-good vibes for you all with a Saturn in Aries or Pisces and are dealing with this erratic Saturn return.

EXTRA

*Signs with an * it is a big week for you. Libra this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year. And Aries it is your halfway mark for your birth year, so if you need a Planetary Reading for a check in, now is the time.

May light be on you, around you, and within you.

Nina

Aries

Eight of Earth – The Muse of Production is here to cheer you on. This muse reminds you that you have unique skills. And her arrival foreshadows that these exceptional skills will be needed soon. So, she asks you to claim and exercise these talents. While she chants “Practice, practice, practice”, to remind you to hone and innovate your gifts to the next level.

Taurus

*Hermit – The last two weeks the Muse of Momentum was your co-pilot and gave you the gas to get things started. Now the Muse of Insight asks you to step back and gain perspective on the project(s) you have been doing. She asks is your work on the right path. How does it fit into your bigger perspective? Does it serve the people you want it to? Use this time to pull back and look at the bigger picture and make tweaks before you enter back into society.

Gemini

*Moon – These next two weeks will be a deep dive into your emotional realm. The Muse of Reflection would like to work with your heart. She asks what emotions have you been bottling up? She recommends using this time to work through them before these emotions bubble over into reality and make a mess. Your emotions have intel, but they are disguised in reaction instead of reflection.

Cancerian

*Fool – The coming weeks have the potential for inviting in the new. The Muse of Possibilities challenges you to be open to the unfamiliar. Yes, you crabs do not always feel comfortable changing shells and being vulnerable. But she reminds you to have more faith in yourself when you step into the unknown, for you will find stable ground and a bigger frontier even if you cannot see it.

Leo

*Magician – The Muse of Manifestation is your co-conspirator for these coming weeks. The key with working with this muse is to first connect with the why behind what you would like to manifest. Is it aligned with divine inspiration/your soul? The second task is to allow for experimentation. She reminds you that mistakes often bring more insight and therefore bigger gains. And lastly to realize you have all the tools you need to do this task. Utilize what you have around you.

Virgo

*Fool/Body of Fire– Okay some of you still either are not trusting the process of jumping into the unknown or you need more of this energy. That means some of you still need to accept invites, strike up conversations with strangers, take new routes going home, or take a passion project off the back burner. Use this energy to be let go of perfectionism and goal orientation. And then the rest of you that have made that jump into the unknown you have the Muse of Perfect Timing as your companion. This muse loves to put you in the right place at the right time for opportunities and lessons. Even if it feels negative/challenging by the end of the year you will see them as the gifts that they are.

Libra

Six of Earth – The Muse of Kindness comes when you need to balance the back and forth of giving and receiving. Yes, it is within your nature to be kind, but it is also important to give or receive what is actually needed. This muse suggests trying this experiment. When in a conversation, instead of just empathizing or being self-effacing, ask others to clarify what they need or be clearer on what you need, i.e. to fix it, brainstorming, emotional support, or just an ear to vent to.

Scorpio

*Magician – The Muse of Manifestation is your companion for the coming weeks. This muse shows up when you either need to clarify what you want to manifest; you are having trouble focusing or you are not allowing for experimentation and variability in your work. If it is clarification, do some brainstorming with a trusted friend. If it is a focus issue, take a break and come back to it later. And if it is that you are too controlling of the outcome or process work on trusting the flow and allowing yourself to learn from the mishaps.

Sagittarius

Nine of Fire – Preparation is the key for the coming weeks. The Muse of Endurance will help by enhancing your resilience when you need it. And your responsibility will be to think of what you may possibly need to support you for the next two weeks. Think of things like preparing food that can be reheated. Make your lunch or pick out your clothes the night before. Doing things as they come up instead of “doing it later.” By doing so you will increase your efficiency and your time for work and balance that out with rest.

Capricorn

Four of Air – For the next couple of weeks it would be beneficial if you spent some time recouping and unplugging when you can. Your brain needs a break from thinking, dealing and deciding. So, whatever your key to calmness and relaxation is, make the time to do it. Your brain will thank you.

Aquarius

Mind of Air – The Muse of the Big Picture comes when you need to ponder, possible adjust, or clarify what your goal or big idea is. This longer, broader view will help you in finessing the details and steps that need to do to manifest this aim. So, start with the goal and work backwards. This is also important when conveying an idea to others. They need to see the big picture, so they can help or at least get out of your way.

Pisces

Five of Earth – All fives have to do with chaos, and this one is on the material plane. The Muse of Poverty Mindset is your companion to help combat this challenge. Because things are a bit unsettled you are believing that you do not have enough – money, time and/or space. However, this muse reminds you that is your perception but not actually the reality. She suggests trying to recognize and then verbalize your abundance and the potential of plenty. Then to fall prey to seeing this fleeting chaos as set in stone or not ultimately to your advantage.

Tarotcast

Tarot and Artcast for Sept 14-27

September 12, 2025 Nina

The artist highlighted for this Artcast is Kirsty Elson @kirstyelson. Elson is a found object sculptor and specifically with driftwood artist. I picked her this week because I needed some whimsy and calm. She originally started making seaside townscapes and has now moved to more whimsical animals. As she says, “I’m thoroughly enjoying this new path, as I can be even more playful and inject some humor into my work which I think is a nice distraction in these troubled times.” I also highly recommend watching a beautiful documentary short, Seawood about her, the ocean and her work.

Your pondering: Her mother said, “she was a bit like a magpie, collecting things”. We all collect things around us. What do your collections say about your emotional needs? Calm? Whimsical? Colorful?

Solar System highlights

We start the week with the moon in Cancer – self-care is the focus. On Wednesday it shifts into Leo – and we shift from inner to outer shine. Saturday the moon is in Virgo and there is a new moon on Sunday – time to organize. Monday September 22^nd the moon moves into Libra – relationships are the focus. Then Wednesday September 24^th it shifts to Scorpio – put time into what makes you zing. Then we begin the weekend with the moon in Sagittarius – go exploring.

Mercury is in Virgo until September 19^th having us make our communication more efficient and clearer. Then it moves into Libra where this energy is best used to work on balancing equalizing listening and speaking.

Mars is Scorpio until November 4^th. This aspect is a perfect time to work on our passion projects. Venus is in Leo until September 19^th, amplifying all parts of Love in your life. Just watch that you don’t get too dramatic especially in your personal relationships. Bath in Love without the cling. Then Venus moves into Virgo where working on making your environment welcoming becomes the focus.

EXTRA

*Signs with an * it is a big week for you. Virgo/Libra this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year. And Piscis/Aries it is your halfway mark for your birth year, so if you need a Planetary Reading for a check in, now is the time.

Nina

Aries

*Star – Things have been a bit bumpy as you move out of the summer season. Luckily you have the Muse of Healing and Hope to inspire you. She suggests spending the next two weeks future-tripping around what you would like to heal in the coming months and with that healing what would change. This muse advises doing this through writing or any creative endeavor by expressing what it would feel and/or look like in this new paradigm shift. The more nuance the better.

Taurus

*Chariot – The Muse of Momentum is your co-pilot for the coming weeks. This muse gives you the gas and grease you need for any project you have in the works. However, she does require you to have a clear destination and route laid out. Otherwise, you will be doing donuts in the proverbial parking lot.

Gemini

Ace of Earth – All aces promote new beginnings. The Ace of Earth is energy to begin a project on the material plane. This is a great time to fix up your house, begin a business, invest money, move, or buy something you really need. The only caveats the muses warn you about are to be clear on the first steps and have all your materials in place.

Cancerian

Three of Air – The Muse of Healing is your companion for the coming weeks. This muse works with thought patterns that hurt your heart. These are usually old wounds from outside sources but that still need mending. And in the coming weeks these traumas may reappear. These are not reenactments but phantasms to clue you in on what still needs healing. Remember your brain has the capacity to rewire itself, but it takes time. So, use this energy to tend to these wounds daily until the road of joy is used more than the road of trauma.

Leo

*Chariot – The Muse of Momentum is lending her energy to you for the next couple of weeks. This is a great time to get projects off the back burner or to begin a project. She will grease the wheels of movement, but you must provide a clear direction to this kinetic time. If you find this hard to do, she suggests that you corral a companion to keep you on task and a good playlist to keep the energy up.

Virgo

*Fool – Okay so either you are not trusting the process of jumping into the unknown or you need more of this energy. Because the Muse of Spontaneity is your companion again. And possible a theme for your whole new birth year. So here we go again, this Muse would like you to say yes to invites, strike up conversations with strangers, take new routes going home, or take a passion project off the back burner. Use this energy to be let go of perfectionism and goal orientation. This Muse would like you to open yourself to the unknown. To have more faith in yourself when you step into the void, for you will find stable ground even if you can’t see it.

Libra

*Moon – These next two weeks will be a deep dive into your emotional realm. The Muse of Reflection would like to work with your shadowy side. She reminds you that the shadow side is not something to fear or fix, but a place to dive into the why of the past and reflect on how your reactions helped you at that time. This process works with self-parenting “the you that was” when you did not have support or positive role models and then by caring for and forgiving “the you that was” with the amazing you that is now.

Scorpio

Heart of Fire – Hopefully you spent some time the past two weeks working with the Muse of Inertia rediscovering what is important in your life, creativity and innovations. Because the Muse of Spark would like you to play within your creativity. She suggests doodling or experimenting with your choice of inspiration without a goal, for this will reengage your spark and intuition. The key is playing and surfing your creative currents, so you can realign with your inner path.

Sagittarius

Three of Earth – The Muse of Collaboration comes when you are trying to do something on your own but you need outside help or perspective. These coming weeks get out your contact list and call on others to keep you aligned to your task, aid you with advice or physical person-power. It’s not that you can’t do it on your own, but collaboration will make the workload lighter and inspire you to broaden your imagination.

Capricorn

*Magician – The Muse of Manifestation is your co-conspirator these coming weeks. The key with working with this muse is to first connect with the why behind what you want to manifest. Is it aligned with divine inspiration/your soul? The second task is to allow for experimentation. Mistakes bring more success. And lastly to realize you have all the tools you need to do this task, no need to hit the books to learn something new. Utilize what you have around you.

Aquarius

*Hierophant – The Muse of Structures is perfectly aligned with the planetary energy of Mercury and then Venus in Virgo. This month’s energy will best be utilized by optimizing and streamlining your structures, schedules, resources, and environment, for potential growth and building. This muse advises to spend this time tweaking what needs enhancement for your serenity and ease as you moved into this fall season.

Pisces

Eight of Air – The Muse of Letting Go is your co-collaborator for the coming two weeks. She would like to work with you on letting go of old thought patterns that no longer serve you. These paradigms where helpful and protective at an earlier stage of your life, but now they bind you from stepping into your future. She advises writing down your negative self-talk and finding its origins and then comparing it to where you are now. If you find it no longer rings true to your present circumstances, then it is time to let it go. And if by chance it still rings true then update how you deal with it. Because either way the old recordings are no longer working.

Tarotcast

Tarot and Artcast for Aug 31-Sept 13

August 30, 2025 Nina

The artist highlighted for this Artcast is Jennifer Packer. On the surface one would say, Packer paints portraits and flowers, but how she portrays her images makes the viewer feel more by seeing less. This is embodied in one of her idioms: “I think about images that resist, that attempt to retain their secrets or maintain their composure, that put you to work…” What I love about Packer’s work is her ability to convey more with less. That her portrait can be almost monochromatic, but we walk away with a connection with the person being portrayed. Or perhaps it is the feeling of Packer’s perception about that person’s aura. Either way it is the connection that becomes the centerpieces of her work.

Your pondering: Packer said about her exhibition “Every Shut Eye Ain’t Asleep” at MOCA LA “I hope to make works that suggest how dynamic and complex our lives and relationships are.” On our path of learning how to human we must remember that most of our experiences with others are just glimpses into their life. That fellow commuter may be asleep or maybe just trying to keep the world out so they can keep their feelings in. Ultimately, we need to remember that all the people we meet have stories behind them, all unique but also all dealing with the same range of human emotions. We should never take for granted or overlook that that person across from us – you don’t know them intimately – what they have dealt with – but you have felt what they have felt at some point. One of the great human paradoxes is that we are all unique and the same.

Solar System highlights

We start the week with the moon in Sagittarius – great for exploring but hard to get work moving. On Tuesday the moon moves into Capricorn – now work week begin. Thursday it is in Aquarius– great for innovation and outside of the box thinking. And on Sunday September 7^th we have a full moon in Pisces – this is a dreamy full moon good for creativity. Then Tuesday September 9^th the moon is in Aries – great for getting those dreams out of the ether and into the material plane. On Thursday September 11^th the moon is in Taurus – ground your emotions. Then we begin the weekend with the moon in Gemini – communication becomes the focus.

Mercury is still in Leo until September 3^rd, finishing off our 11-week course in expressing ourselves with the caveat that we don’t shade others’ shine while we spread our own light. Then it moves into Virgo having us work on making our communication efficient and clear. Mars is Scorpio until November 4^th. This aspect is a perfect time to work on our passion projects. Venus is in Leo until September 19^th, amplifying all parts of Love in your life. Just watch that you don’t get too dramatic especially in your personal relationships. Bath in Love without the cling.

Lastly, Saturn is back in Piscis until February of 2026. So, we are back to our structures having trouble being…well… structured. And I am sending out extra feel-good vibes for you all with a Saturn in Aries or Pisces and are dealing with this erratic Saturn return.

Nina

Aries

Body of Earth – You continue working with your structures. The Muse of Slow and Steady rides with you for the next two weeks. This muse counsels you with idioms like “Rome wasn’t built in a day” or “Nature doesn’t hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” Now that Saturn is back in Pisces you can look at the answers to the last tarotcast’s questions of: are your structures laying a solid foundation to your desires and intentions? Are you well-resourced emotional, physically, mentally and spiritually? And begin slowly processing the solutions. This is not a time to fall into the rush of things. Begin the slow process of stocking up resources, fixing the cracks and/or doing a slow deconstruction of what isn’t working.

Taurus

Four of Swords – You continue with the energy of stillness. Where the last two weeks were about listening to your internal ponderings and looking at alternative and innovations. This next period the Muse of Rest is your companion. Where the Muse of Stillness wanted you to process this muse wants you to turn off your mind. She advises to disconnect from technology and information gathering in general. To let your body, mind and spirit take time to rest and restore.

Gemini

Heart of Water – The Muse of a Play is your companion for the coming weeks. This muse shows up when you are taking life too seriously. This energy is about being open to the wonder of a snail crossing the sidewalk, crickets’ songs at night, playing in puddles, doodling, finding animals in the clouds, playing with children and using your imagination. The key with this challenge is not to make everything you do have a goal.

Cancerian

*Fool – The Muse of Possibilities is hanging out with you as you step into September. This is big energy that promotes new beginnings and being open to new opportunities. This can be as simple as reading a book outside your favorite genre or eating at a new restaurant. Or it can be as complex as exploring a new passion, relationship or profession. The key to aligning with this energy is to be open to the new. You don’t have to commit and especially do not bind yourself. This energy is about freeing your spirit and being more curious about the world around you.

Leo

Eight of Earth – Now that your birth month is over it is time to get to work on your new year. The Muse of Mastery is hanging with you for the next two weeks. This Muse advises putting productivity into your daily/weekly practice. The key to working with this energy is seeing how accomplishing the small steps gets you farther then grasping for long term future goals. And seeing mistakes as learning tools to drive your outputs with more efficiency and ease. This muse advises putting gold stars on your calendar for any kind or size of headway you make.

Virgo

*Fool – The Muse of Spontaneity is your companion for the coming weeks. This Muse would like you to say yes to invites, strike up conversations with strangers, take new routes going home, or take a passion project off the back burner. Use this energy to be let go of perfectionism and goal orientation. This Muse would like you to open yourself to the unknown. And to have more faith in yourself when you step into the void, for you will find stable ground even if you can’t see it.

Libra

Eight of Fire – These next two weeks will be filled with information and messages. So much so that you may feel overloaded. The Muse of Messages advise navigating this onslaught by prioritizing the important subjects you need to focus on for just these next two weeks. The lovely thing about this energy is that even if you miss or can’t process the messages they will come around again.

Scorpio

Blessed Are Those Who Mourn, Jennifer Packer

*Hanged One – That past two weeks may have felt or been very tumultuous, luckily you have the Muse of Inertia as a companion for the next couple of weeks. This energy is about slowing down possible even to a standstill. This muse comes when you need to step out of the fray and take personal time to ponder your life. She challenges you not only to look at it logically but also to turn it on its head with what ifs, both positive and negative. Ultimately this contemplation is about rediscovering what is important in your life, creativity and innovations. This muse even suggests putting your head at the bottom of the bed and seeing what dreams are conjured up with this new position.

Sagittarius

Two of Fire – The Muse of In-between hangs with you for the coming weeks. She is the master of the present. By living in the moment with this muse you can gain more clarity on where it is you may like to wander to next. What will your next project, travel, relationship be? What do you want to experience next? Only by being ground in the present can you more confidently move into the future.

Capricorn

Four of Air – The Muse of Restoration is your companion for the next two weeks. You “go-go goats” often don’t get along with this muse, but she logically reminds you, you must be well resourced before you get onto the next project or phase. She recommends unplugging your phone and spending some time resting and restoring your mental, spiritual and physical coffers. Though body rest is important, she acknowledges movement can be restful for some of you. The key is decreasing your goal orientation for this small period so you can hear yourself think.

Aquarius

An exercise in tenderness, Jennifer Packer

Six of Earth – The Muse of Mini-karma comes when you need to watch your p’s & q’s. You can easily step on toes while your head is in the clouds. This muse reminds you to stay present and pay attention to the vibe in the room. By being more present and vigilant you can dole out your natural kindness with more accuracy.

Pisces

*Lovers – The Muse of Relations is your companion for the coming two weeks. This muse usually shows up when it is important for you to put energy in the relationships you want to keep and release the ones you don’t. Love is the ultimate vibe with this muse, but if you are finding difficult to be around a friend, co-worker or companion now is the time to do a deep dive into the why behind it. It could be them, or it could be you.

Tarotcast

Tarot and Artcast for Aug 17-30

August 15, 2025 Nina

The artist highlighted for this Artcast is Carla Accardi. Accardi is one of the major figures of Italian formalism. One of the hallmarks of formalist art theory is the idea that the work of art should be experienced in itself, and not in relation to anything else. Her calligraphic abstractions and artistic explorations utilize the hybridization of geometric and gestural painting. Accardi used both traditional canvas as well as a material called Sicofoil (a transparent plastic) to produce her paintings. Thus having the viewer more clearly see the paint and the gestures of the painter.

Your pondering: Where do you box in your talents? We often try to put science and art into separate and often opposing categories. Being misled by the saying of left versus right brained people. New research using brain scans of mathematicians and artists while they are working has demonstrated that both sides of the brain work in tandem during creative and quantitative tasks alike. As Accardi says about her inspirations for painting: “I was following two approaches: one focused on a scientific biological perspective, with growing and shrinking amoebas. The other approach was more geometric, with work that was sharper…”

Solar System highlights

We start the week with the moon in Gemini – the focus is communication. On Tuesday the moon moves into Cancer – self-care is top priority. On Thursday it is in Leo – your time to shine. It then moves into Virgo on Saturday which is also a new moon – great to start organizing or cleaning projects. Then Tuesday August 26^th the moon is in Libra – focus on relationships and balance. And we finish the two weeks with the moon in Scorpio on Thursday August 28^th– explore your passions.

Mercury is still in Leo until September 3^rd, but no longer retrograde. Finishing off our 11-week crash course in expressing ourselves with the caveat that we don’t shade others’ shine while we spread our own light. Mars is Libra until the 23^rd, having us work on collaboration and cooperation. Venus is in Cancer when cuddling and beauty rest become the precedent. Not to mention it is hanging with Jupiter, the planet of abundance so doubling the goodness for both planets.

Jupiter, the planet of abundance and growth, is in Cancer until June 2026. This placement is exalted, because Cancer boosts Jupiter’s positive aspects and vice versa. Jupiter creates more ease in our emotional growth, intuition, feeling nurtured as well as giving it. However, the two-fold challenge is that growth needs time to cultivate and may bring growing pains. So be kind and patient with others and yourself as we grow into our abundance. Saturn is in Aries until September 1^st for its first round of pumping up the energy levels. This aspect is about calibrating how you burn your “candle”, so that you don’t burn out while everything is on the move around us.

Lastly, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are in their new signs during August for a peek into what the next social cycle, possibilities and places that need changing. Saturn represents structures and institutions, and Aries is about new ways to do things. Uranus is the planet of revolution, freedom and innovation and Gemini is all things around the mind, information, and communication. Neptune represents our dreams and aspirations and in Aries how to make dreams real. For society and personally this is the time to investigate new ways of evolving. So, get out your sketch books and draw out a new future for us and the world.

*Signs with an * it is a big week for you. Leo/Virgo this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year. And Aquarius/Piscis it is your halfway mark for your birth year, so if you need a Planetary Reading for a check in, now is the time.

**** I have a tip jar if you want to leave a gratuity for the tarot & art-casts.

Nina

Aries

*Hierophant – The Muse of Structures visiting you makes perfect sense while Saturn the planet of structures is in your sign. This Muse asks are your structures laying a solid foundation to your desires and intentions? Are you well-resourced emotional, physically, mentally and spiritually? If so, then great use this time to move projects, ideas, intentions forward. But if you are not resourced adequately to build the future you want, take these two weeks to do what is necessary to fill your coffers, reinforce your structures, and put boundaries around time and energy needed for stabilizing your future.

Taurus

*Hanged One – The Muse of Stillness comes for two reasons. One to make you slow down either willing or not. This muse will put roadblocks and detours in front of you to slow your roll. And the why is the second reason. This muse wants you to use this time to ponder alternatives and innovations that can up your game. However, to fully access this muse’s information you need to be quiet, be still, observe instead of doing. I know that Mercury just turned direct and there is an urge to get going, but the muses are suggesting you need more time to percolate.

Gemini

Two of Air – The Muse of a Choice comes when you are ruminating and not totally committing to moving forward. You are hesitating on something. Thinking you do not have enough information to make a secure choice. This muse suggest that the problem is not in the logic of pros and cons but stepping into what your heart already knows is a better path/choice.

Cancerian

Six of Earth – The Muse of Kindness is hanging with you for the next two weeks. This muse comes when you need to evaluate who you are giving to. Giving comes in a variety of forms. It can be through material resources as well as time and/or energy. Is your energy placed where you are optimally utilizing your skill set? Does it align with your morals and values? You don’t have to just direct your attention to big world problems. Pick a part of your local situation/environment that you would like to see improve and then take this time to make it a kinder and more compassionate place.

Leo

Body of Earth – You continue with the energy of building on the material plane. The Muse of Slow and Steady rides with you during the next two weeks. This muse counsels you with idioms like “Rome wasn’t built in a day” or “Nature doesn’t hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” With all this Aries energy and you are just beginning a new birth-year you ‘all may feel the need to rush or use these last days of summer to procrastinate and then rush to finish. This muse advises to do a little something everyday to move your plans forward. The combo of steady work with lounging breaks during the high heat of the day balances out your energy for this period.

Virgo

Five of Earth – The Muse of Poverty Mind-set would like you to work on yours. This muse usually comes when you feel as if you have no resources or they are running low. And this might be very true; however, she reminds you that you also have an amazing community to ask for support from. This can look like venting to a friend, asking your partner to take on some housework, switching up roommate chores, asking around for new job opportunities, bouncing ideas with a mentor figure, or taking out some of your savings for a rainy day because it is raining. You have resources in the wings but first you must admit that you need help and you don’t have to do it alone.

Libra

Ten of Air – The Muse of Drama is working with you these next two weeks. She often comes when your environment is slightly or not so slightly toxic. She suggests handling this in two ways. One walk away from anything even slightly dramatic. Do not engage. Or if you must interact then spiritually put on your toughest armor and use your intuition to navigate these turbulent waters. Logic does not work well in these situations, so if engaging – float like a butterfly and avoid stinging like a bee.

Scorpio

*Tower – The Muse of Destruction comes when something in your life is not working and needs a major over-haul. Take these next two weeks to take inventory on everything that is not working in your life. Literally write a list. And prioritize it from biggest to smallest/easiest to fix. Examples can be as simple as your toilet constantly running or as complex as your job sucking the life out of you. Then take the smallest easiest issue and fix it. And move up list as far as you can. The muses advise start doing this work in the coming weeks because it can cause disruption later if not fixed or at the very least identified.

Sagittarius

Queen of Earth – Finally, you can stop the last four weeks of looking inward, for the Muse of Senses is joining you for the next couple of weeks. She would like you to work with your five sense on the daily to ground yourself in life. Stop and smell the flowers, witness the sunsets, play in water, cuddle, let your tastebuds linger over your favorite foods, listen to music… The muses remind you that you are incarnated in a human body, time to get in touch with the finer parts of being in it.

Capricorn

Five of Fire – The Muse of Games has come to hang with you for the next two weeks. She uses the metaphor of the childhood rope game, double-dutch. First, she reminds you that you have a choice whether you want to play. You can walk away and find another game with other rules or make up your own. But if you do decide to play there are rules and “ropes” that you need to abide by. So, if you decide to participate you must commit to those rules. However, no matter which choice the keys are to listen to your soul/heart and have an exit plan before starting.

Aquarius

*Judgement – The Muse of Evolution would like to work with you for the coming two weeks. Some aspects of your life need an upgrade, transformation or maybe you are about to enter a new life phase. This Muse shows up when you are not clear on what you want to transform into. Think of this time like being a cocoon. A caterpillar partially dissolves itself before it begins the process of recreating the butterfly it is going to be. This muse would like you to envision the future you want to evolve into. And she wants details as well as generalized feelings. Then she would like you to start sloughing off the old, leave what is necessary and begin evolving into the new.

Pisces

Five of Air – All fives herald chaos. This one portends chaos of the mind. The Muse of Ego is here to help with this issue for the coming weeks. This muse advises to check your ego when interacting/reacting. Your mind maybe jumping to conclusions, running old thought patterns or reenacting past scenarios instead of being open to the reality of the now and new. This is not about denying past experiences or well-earned wisdom. This energy is about being open to new paradigms so you can shift your thought patterns toward healthier scenarios.

Tarot and Artcast for Aug 3-16

August 1, 2025 Nina

The artist highlighted is Ledelle Moe. Moe mostly works in sculpture and installations using dirt, concrete and steel. Her pieces seem to hold a presence. They ground us. Maybe it is the size for some pieces but also her choice of material and process is palpable. In her words: “I have been exploring notions of monumentality and the human form through a series of sculpted figures. Created with a process that begins with the digging and gathering of soil from various locales and progresses in the studio through such actions as welding, casting, modeling, and carving, I create these figures in order to open up narratives that speak through both image and materiality…. Also, in play are what have been recurring themes in my work. These are issues of permanence and impermanence, location and dislocation, and place and displacement.”

Your pondering: We are in the midst of summer. Somedays seem to lazily stretch on-and-on and others are a flash of sunlight and heat. Time has been on my mind a lot lately. So, this statement, by Moe about her installation Congregation (a series of small concrete heads where she collected sand, dirt and detritus from places she has visited- See Sagittarius below for pic), struck a chord with me and maybe you would like to ponder it too. “Time is a very interesting shape, it folds, and it weaves and it’s a wave. And sometimes a circle but its definitely not a line.”

Solar System highlights

We start the week with the moon in Sagittarius – take a wander. On Wednesday the moon moves into Capricorn – great for all things work related. On Friday the moon moves into Aquarius with a full moon on Saturday – ponder the stars. It then moves into Pisces on Sunday August 10^th – daydreaming is the vibe. Then Tuesday August 12^th the moon is in Aries – grab this energy to make things happen. And we finish the two weeks with the moon moving into Taurus on Friday August 15^th– rediscover your senses.

Mercury is in Leo until September 3^rd. Giving us an 11-week crash course in expressing ourselves with the caveat that we don’t shade others’ shine while we spread our own light. Mars is Libra having us work on collaborations and cooperation. Venus is in Cancer when cuddling and beauty rest become the precedent. And mark August 11^th for Venus sidles up to Jupiter this is the best configuration of the year. Make wishes. Bring in the abundance and changes for the good.

Jupiter, the planet of abundance and growth, is in Cancer until June 2026. This placement is exalted, because Cancer boosts Jupiter’s positive aspects and vice versa. Jupiter creates more ease in our emotional growth, intuition, feeling nurtured as well as giving it. However, the two-fold challenge is that growth needs time to cultivate and may bring growing pains. So be kind and patient with others and yourself as we grow into our abundance. Saturn is in Aries until September 1^st for its first round of pumping up energy levels. This aspect is about calibrating how you burn your “candle”, so that you don’t burn out while everything is on the move around us.

Lastly, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are in their new signs for a tiny month-long peek into what the next social cycle, potential and places that need change will be highlighted. Saturn represents structures and institutions, and Aries is about new ways to do things. Uranus is the planet of revolution, freedom and innovation and Gemini is all things around the mind, information, and communication. Neptune represents our dreams and aspirations and in Aries how to make dreams real. For society and personally this is the time to investigate new ways of evolving. So, get out your sketch books and draw out a new future for us and the world.

EXTRA

*Signs with an * it is a big week for you. Leo this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year. And Sagittarius it is your halfway mark for your birth year, so if you need a Planetary Reading for a check in, now is the time.

Nina

Aries

Body of Earth – The Muse of Slow and Steady will be your companion for the coming weeks. With Mercury in retrograde and Neptune (dreams) and Saturn (structures) in your sign. Use this time to slow down and do some daydreaming and castle on the hill planning. This muse reminds this energy isn’t about solely retreating or nose to the grindstone energy more about taking some time to get into the sandbox and play.

Taurus

*Star – The Muse of Hope is here to work with you for the coming weeks. She asks you to contemplate what happens after deconstruction or completion. Where, what and how do you want to rebuild. What do you hope for? What is your north star?

Gemini

*High Priestess – The Muse of a Higher Calling is walking with you for the coming weeks. She comes when you have strayed from the path. It can be as simple as you have deviated from what you want to do or as complex as you have lost your connection to yourself and thus have dimmed your purpose or intuition. She advises spending the next two weeks finding time to padiddle. Padiddling is the exercise of just sitting and listening. Your inner muse has messages though they may be hidden in synchronicities, whispers or the moon’s reflection in water.

Cancerian

Mind of Fire – The Muse of Sovereignty is your partner in the coming weeks. Sovereignty is defined as supreme power or authority. This muse comes because you have given your power away and it is time to wrest it back. One of the pillars in Stoic philosophy is that we can only control how we perceive and then respond. By allowing others to dictate your responses, time or energy you have released some of your power. Now is the time to get it back.

Leo

Mind of Earth – These next two weeks are awesome for building in your material plan. This Muse of Material comes when you need to focus on finances, your body and the physical work that needs to get done. This muse asks to create action steps to increase your wealth and health. And to check off your to-do list. By working on the physical plane, you create more self-authority in what you do with your time as well as creating a more materially abundant future.

Virgo

Three of Fire – For the next two weeks the muses would like to create and then act upon the steps for the future you are trying to materialize. The Muse of Waiting comes when bigger plans are in the works, and you do not have control over their timing. So, this muse asks, what do you need to do while you wait? What needs to be set up to receive the abundance that is coming.

Libra

*Emperor – The last two weeks the Muse of Creativity wanted you to stand in the flow of inspiration by scheduling more time to bask in creative energy. To be re-inspired- to plant what needs to grow. Hopefully you found time to do this because these next two weeks the Muse of Building would like to start bringing those inspirations into the material world. This muse challenges you to walk your talk. She asks you to look around, what needs to be done? Even the smallest tasks are steps in building a more bountiful future.

Scorpio

Ace of Wands – All aces signify new beginnings, and the ace of fire would this beginning to inspire you and possible the world. So hopefully you got to work with the Muse of Tomfoolery the past two weeks and gathered some fun ideas. If you did, then the muses are ready for you to begin bringing something new into your world. If you could not, then take these two weeks to ponder on what you would like to spring up in your life. And if that is even too hard, take some actual seeds and spread them around your neighborhood. And then pay attention to what the Universe puts in front of you.

Sagittarius

Four of Water – So it seems the muses would like you to continue your work on pondering what you are evolving. For the Muse of Belly-buttoning would like to work with you for the coming two weeks. Now remember the Muse of Evolution predicted this is a perfect time to begin transforming. See the last tarotcast if you are still feeling directionless or have trouble pinpointing where to start. This Muse would also like you to remember that 3/4 of the time you can do this inward search and work, but the other 1/4^th needs to be done in the world. You need to practice your inner work out in the real world and gain a broader perspective and/or new ideas how to tweak your evolution.

Capricorn

Mind of Fire – Hopefully you got to work with the Muse of Perspective the past two weeks to pull back and ponder the bigger picture. The broader your view the better the understanding of what is next. And now the Muse of Sovereignty is your dance partner. Sovereignty is defined as supreme power or authority. This muse comes because you have given your power away and it is time to wrest it back. One of the pillars in Stoic philosophy is that we can only control how we perceive and then respond. The mind is the only aspect of yourself that you have the ability to take control of. Time to burn the rest away and reclaim your core.

Aquarius

Seven of Air – The Muse of Simplicity comes when you need to streamline your life. She asks you to prioritize your needs and then to spend your mental energy working on them only. So, if you are fed, watered and done with work, do not add more to your to-do list. This muse reminds you that you just being – can be enough.

Pisces

*Justice – During these next two weeks things are not just yes/no or right/wrong. The Muse of Gray has come for you to do work on the whys behind things. This is a balancing act of making decisions and discernments but realizing that paradox and complexities still exist. She has you working on making the best decision with what is now at hand and not what was or what it could be. If you believe and trust in the why behind your decision, then it is the right one for now.

Tarotcast

Tarot and Artcast for July 20 – Aug 2

July 18, 2025 Nina

The artist highlighted is Joseph Stella. Stella was part of the Precisionist movement and is best known for his paintings of The Brooklyn Bridge. Precisionism focuses on the themes of industrialization and modernization in the American landscape often using precise and sharply defined geometrical forms. However, as a counter point, he also casts his eye to nature where his paintings become highly detailed and joyfully colored.

Your pondering: Stella once said: To refresh and rebuild my chromatic vision I went to the flowers to learn the secret of the vibration of their colors. I often center this pondering around nature, especially for those that are in an urban setting. Our human eyes need to rest on nature’s composition to rebalance ourselves from the simplistic but precise geometry of squares, corners, triangles of the human city. So find time to be out in nature and recalibrate your vision.

Solar System highlights

We start the week with the moon in Gemini – exchange of information is highlighted. On Wednesday the moon moves into Cancer – it’s all about self-care. On Friday we have a new moon in Leo – put into motion a new way to shine. It then moves into Virgo on Sunday July 27^th – tidy up what needs tidying. Then Tuesday July 29^th the moon is in Libra – relationships take priority. And we finish the two weeks with the moon moving into Scorpio on August 1^st – explore your passions.

Mercury is in Leo until September 3^rd. Giving us an 11-week crash course in expressing ourselves with the caveat that we don’t shade others’ shine while we spread our own light. Venus is in Gemini until July 29^thand has us working on our sweet talk. Then it moves into Cancer when cuddling and beauty rest become the precedent. Mars is Libra having us work on collaborations and cooperation.

Jupiter, the planet of abundance and growth, is in Cancer until June 2026. This placement is exalted, because Cancer boosts Jupiter’s positive aspects and vice versa. While Jupiter creates more ease in our emotional growth, intuition, feeling nurtured as well as giving it. However, the two-fold challenge is that growth needs time to cultivate and may bring growing pains. So be kind and patient with others and yourself as we grow into our abundance. Saturn is in Aries until September 1^st for its first round of pumping up energy levels. This aspect is about calibrating how you burn your “candle”, so that you don’t burn out while everything is on the move around us.

Lastly, Uranus is dipping its toe into Gemini until November 7^th. Uranus is the planet of revolution, freedom and innovation and Gemini is all things around the mind, information, and communication. The last time it was in this sign democracy was being reborn. It will return to Taurus, which holds back Uranus’ tendance for uprisings until April 2026, so the old guard still has the reins. But we get a taste of what our revolution needs to stand for in the coming months.

*Signs with an * it is a big week for you. Cancer/Leo this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year. And Capricorn/Sagittarius it is your halfway mark for your birth year, so if you need a Planetary Reading for a check in, now is the time.

**** I have a tip jar if you want to leave a gratuity for the tarot & art-casts.

Nina

Aries

*Magician – For the next two weeks the Muse of Manifestation will be inspiring you to experiment with what you would like to bring into the world. The key to this kind of manifestation is to be solid on the reasons behind bringing it into existence. How does it help you and others? Does this manifestation represent who you are and what you want to put your name on? Understand the purpose and uses of it in your life and then experiment a bit with the process of getting things started. You have all the tools you need, just make sure the reason behind it sits well within you.

Taurus

Four of Water – The Muse of Reflection is with you for the next two weeks. The reason behind this energy is that you need to do some belly button introspection. This mediation is needed for you to rebalance your emotions and ground/stabilize yourself. However, for a fourth of this time you also need to look outside of yourself for guidance and inspiration. You have 3/4^th of the answers but the remaining part is out in the world.

Gemini

Nine of Water – The Muse of Satiation would like you to spend the next two weeks focusing on aspect of your life that satisfies you. She advises the exercise of making a list of activities that fill your cup. They can be as simple as your favorite food, cuddling with a loved one, reading a book, walking in nature… Not only does she advise categorizing these activities but to also prioritizing them. So, when the moment/day/week has been rough you can just grab an activity off the list to remind you that life is good.

Cancerian

Six of Water – The Muse of Memories comes when the past has some information for you. As a zodiac sign you all usually take the role of the keepers of memories, memorabilia, history… So, take time these next two weeks and rummage through the past. Read old journals, look at photos, reconnect with family or old friends. She asks you to mull over, what resonates for you now. Does the past need cleansing, healing, or just a dusting off. What do you want to carry into this coming birth year?

Leo

Six of Earth – Happy Birth-month! The Muse of Giving is working with you for these next two weeks. The muses do realize it is a time for you to receive, which you should do with open hearts and hands. But they do want you to remember the law of karma – what goes around comes around. They would like you to think about what you can give in this coming birth-year? What would be a totally charitable act? What are you willing to positively give to the world? You all have big hearts and big imaginations – use it to make the world a better place.

Virgo

Body of Fire – For the next two weeks you are in the right place at the right time. There is information, guidance and inspiration in each day. The circumstances may feel like they align perfectly for the good but there will also be some information in the uncomfortable. The muses remind you that this is just a transitory state to give you guidance, so don’t get caught up in the judgment. Just process the data.

Libra

*Empress – The Muse of Creativity would like to work with you in the coming weeks. For some of you, you will easily stand in the flow of inspiration and for the other half of the scales you can feel empty of ideas. The former half your challenge is to balance your schedule so that you have more time to create. For the latter, this is a time to play without goals and work with your senses. This can look like trying a new recipe, planting seedlings, getting a new houseplant, going shopping for a new soap/perfume/cologne, and/or buying new music. Introducing your senses to new things get your creativity rolling.

Scorpio

*Fool – The Muse of Tomfoolery would like you to play in the coming weeks. Tomfoolery is defined “as foolish or silly behavior; it’s essentially playful lighthearted or nonsensical actions”. The challenging aspect with walking with this muse is the fine line of comedy. The court jester is often the most perceptive player in the room, so when interacting you need to watch your tone and your goals. Are you here to entertain or to school? If it the later make sure you make them laugh with you.

Sagittarius

*Judgement – The Muse of Evolution comes when some aspect of your life needs to level up. If you know what needs to happen then these two weeks are the perfect time to begin this transformation. If you feel directionless or have trouble pinpointing where to start, this muse advises to make a list of all the things that are uncomfortable in your life and then order them from the easiest solution to the hardest. And start solving the easiest first. This will give you confidence and inspiration in where to evolve.

Capricorn

American Landscapes from Walker, Joseph Stella

*Hermit – The Muse of Perspective would like to find some time to pull back and ponder the bigger picture. The timing for this lines up well with this being halfway through your birth-year. She asks you to consider what your goals are. Where and how does meaning show up? What are the advantages and challenges? The test will be finding time to totally unplug so that the everyday noise is far enough away that you can gain a more personal and broader perspective. This contemplation may also include an aerial view of your past and future life trajectory. The broader your view the better the understanding of what is next.

Aquarius

Five of Fire – The Muse of Mini-chaos shows up to help you navigate the projected whirlwinds of the coming weeks. All five in tarot represent a form of chaos and the Five of Fire represents chaos that we often create ourselves by choosing to be chaotic. Think of this energy like playing a game. You have two choices: Play the game or not. If it is the latter, this is not the only game in town but if you walk away be aware the players might be offended. So, it is important to talk nicely and find a graceful way to back out. If you do decide to play, you must accept the chaotic rules of the game and play along. However, make sure you have a “game” plan on how or when to leave.

Pisces

Heart of Air – The Muse of Inquisitiveness comes when you need to dive deeper into conversations and situations around you. Nothing is a simple yes or no during this time. You will need to be curious and subtle when inquiring behind the scenes. If you come at the situation or conversation with honest curiosity of what the other side is thinking it will feel less like integration, and you will suss out more and better intel.

Tarotcast

Tarot and Art-cast for July 6-19, 2025

July 5, 2025 Nina

The artist highlighted is Kawase Hasui. Kawase was famous for his landscape paintings and prints. He was part of the Shin-hanga (new prints) art movement in early 20^th century Japan. Shin-hanga artists incorporated the impression of light and the expression of individual moods. Kawase’s sunset landscapes and his choice of everyday scenes instead of famous landmarks show how he is capturing a mood more then highlighting the subject. He moved away from ukiyo-e traditions of emulating hand-drawn brushstrokes, seeking instead to “create works replete with creativity and rich with artistic quality, by avoiding enslavement to hand-drawn painting or old models”

Your pondering: Two ponderings around this art. Is your creativity or work stunted by an established norm? How can you change or focus on how your environment influences your mood?

Solar System highlights

We start the week with the moon in Sagittarius – explore. On Wednesday the moon moves into Capricorn – great for business or for working through projects. On Saturday the moon is in Aquarius – spend some time pondering. It moves into Pisces on Monday July 14^th – daydreams and wishes are on the agenda. Then Wednesday July 16^th the moon is in Aries – now that you have had some time to think put things into action. On Friday July 18^th it is in Taurus – great for hanging with family and friends.

Mercury is in Leo. Giving us an 11-week crash course in expressing ourselves with the caveat that we don’t step on other’s shine while we spread our own light. Venus moves into Gemini work on your sweet talk. Mars is Libra – work on collaborating and cooperating.

Jupiter, the planet of abundance and growth, is in Cancer until June 2026. This placement is exalted, because Cancer boosts Jupiter’s positive aspects. While Jupiter creates more ease in our emotional growth, intuition, feeling nurtured as well as giving it. However, the two-fold challenge during this time is that growth needs time to cultivate and sometimes this growth brings growing pains. So be kind and patient with others and yourself as we grow into our abundance. Saturn is in Aries until September 1^st for its first round of pumping up energy levels. This aspect is about calibrating how you burn your “candle”, so that you don’t burn out while everything is on the move around us.

And we have another shift in the social planets. Uranus is dipping its toe into Gemini until November 7^th. Uranus is the planet of revolution, freedom and innovation and Gemini is all things around the mind, information, and communication. The last time it was in this sign democracy was being reborn. It will return to Taurus, which holds back Uranus tendance for uprisings until April 2026, so the old guard still has the reins. But we get a taste of the what that revolution needs to stand for in the coming months.

Nina

Aries

*Three of Air – The Muse of Emotional Healing comes when you need to spend the next two weeks focusing on healing old wounds. Often present situations trigger an old wound that you thought was healed. The key is doing a deeper dive into where this scar originated. She advises you to keep picking at it until you find it source and heal it from the past forward.

Taurus

*Chariot – The Muse of Self-Motivation comes when you need to stop and recheck if the road you are on is taking you to your desired destination. This muse advises to spend these next two weeks revising your path and securing the resources you will need to move forward. And then when you are reoriented begin your journey again.

Gemini

*Fool – Another big energy period for you. The last two weeks the Muse of Metamorphose ask you to look around and see what needs to evolve to the next level and transforming it into its higher form. Now the Muse of Leaps would like you to make a blind or semi-blind leap of faith to further this evolution. This can look like going out on a date, a new friend excursion, trying a new cuisine or art form or applying for a new job. Tomorrow has the potential to hold a variety of “fill in the blanks”. This muse asks, what will you write in them?

Cancerian

Ace of Earth – This is a lovely energy for your coming birth year. All aces signify new beginnings, and the Ace of Earth signifies new beginnings on the material plane. This is a great wishing card for manifesting. The muses recommend a fun exercise of planting actually seeds or plants with an intention imbued in it. You can write your wish on paper and put it in the dirt with the seed/plant. Or if you are not sure what to wish for, ask the Universe for blessings and throw the seeds into the wind. PS. Happy Birthday.

Leo

*Death – Your third big energy. So, the muses made you make sure you have a road map for the coming year and then had you unload something that you didn’t want to carry into your new year. Now the Muse of Stillness is here for the last two weeks of your old birth-year to have you stop and contemplate. This isn’t so much about rest, though it is a part of this energy, but it is about sitting still and listening to your inner voice. To still your mind, get bored, stop being on the wheel and see what comes up for you. This is not a time to judge anything but to let things rise from the void. The goal is to metaphorically let the cream rise to the top, and to do so you need to be still.

Virgo

*Wheel – The next two weeks the Muse of Fortune would like you to take chances. She reminds you that if you don’t spin the proverbial wheel, you never have the chance of winning. For with this mercurial energy, you can win big right away, it can take a meandering path to get to you, or you cannot win. (This is different than losing because you just didn’t get a prize, but you didn’t lose anything.) And an interesting result with this exercise of trying is it always leads you to positive returns.

Libra

Nine of Air – The Muse of Worrying comes when you are fretting over something you have no control over. Your thoughts are a whirlwind of apprehension and doubt. The muse suggests this exercise when your thoughts begin taking over. 1) Write them all down. 2) Cross off the ones you have no control over their outcome. 3) Prioritize the rest. Also, she reminds you not to chastise your mind for worrying. Worries are helpful by preparing us for the future; however, once you have prepared for what you can accomplish that is all any human can do.

Scorpio

Heart of Air – The Muse of Investigation comes when there is information that needs to be ferreted out. In most scenarios people are not trying to hide something or thwart you. They also may not have all the pieces to the puzzle or need help digging for the truth. This is also true when those around you generalize their answer to your “how are you?” They may need gentle coaxing to spill their proverbial beans.

Sagittarius

*Emperor – The Muse of Building is here to help you build upon something that is already in progress or that you have put on the back burner for too long. This muse heralds this is the right time to invest in yourself and your projects. This can be as simple as knocking of some of your “honey-to-do lists” or as complex as pulling down that idea of starting your own business and begin. Now is the time to make things happen.

Capricorn

Spirit of Fire – The Muse of Purpose asks you to spend these next two weeks pondering not only what do you want to create but why does it burn inside of you to do so. She advises spending time in museums, music halls, art galleries, or nature. To quiet your mind by observing what other masters of creativity and beauty inspire in you. And thus, connecting you to your own creative fire.

Aquarius

Seven of Fire – The Muse of Standing your Ground comes when either you need to strengthen your boundaries or reevaluate them. The latter is harder because maybe you are too dogmatic for the situation, compromising too much or giving up because you can’t see a solution. For any of these, this muse suggest that you engage a friend or supporter for help with either redrawing your boundaries, seeing your needs and/or just having another person by your side.

Pisces

Two of Fire – The Muse of Imagining comes when you need to do some planning and envisioning of your future. You can do this with a vision board or just write down a futuristic July 1^st, 2027, journal entry that sums up what you have accomplished and experienced. She does advise that you get as detailed as possible as well as envisioning general feelings that your future self will be feeling. By doing both you give the universe some concrete things to work on with you, as well as, giving the universe room to create what you can’t imagine for yourself.
