Tarot and Art Forecast for Week of Dec 6, 2022

Florence Henri

Another woman that comes out of the Bauhaus movement is Florence Henri.   Henri worked with photography and painting.  In both she played with plane and dimension.  However, in her photography she pushed the limits of perception.  By her use of mirrors and techniques of multiple exposure, photomontage, and negative printing, she has the viewer questioning what reality or reflection is.   Her 1927 through 30’s studies of shapes, planes and values made her one of the first abstract photographers.  Henri destabilized the camera’s capacity for realism by creating artificial and imagined spaces with these techniques.  Even when she photographs reality her framing makes us rethink what we are seeing.  This made her a perfect example of New Vision photography in the Bauhaus movement and a forerunner in the discussions of Surrealism.

Your pondering for the week:  Look into the mirror and what do see? What is reality or a reflection of society?

Solar Systems Highlights

This week the moon starts in Taurus giving us a stable footing to begin the week with. On Wednesday it moves into Gemini- watch your conversations and tone.  And for the weekend the moon is in Cancer perfect for staying home and getting your gezellig on.   Mercury (communication and knowledge) is in Capricorn for the rest of the year so we can get a lot done through conversations if you can compromise.  Venus (beauty and harmony) also moves to Capricorn on Wednesday – where quality in spending our resources is highlighted.

Mars (action) is in Gemini (communication and knowledge), until March 25th, 2023.  This is a 7-month stopover instead of it’s usually 1-2.  Mars is pushing us to truthfully talk and follow up with actions.  The challenge with this time is your politeness filter has been switched off.  So, it is having us double down on how to be constructive with our voice – to promote action not reaction.  Jupiter is in Pisces wanting us to dream big and explore what makes us zing for another 3 weeks.  And lastly, Saturn (structures) remains in Aquarius until the beginning of March 2023 – so innovating and modernizing your everyday life is its intention.

****wondering how many people read these solar systems highlights or want it?  Please email me or comment in Instagram if you are wanting it to stay.  I’m thinking about re-formatting and only want to give what is useful.

P.S. Signs with an * it is a big week for you.  Sagittarius this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year.  And Gemini 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,

Three of Wands – This week will have its starts and stops.  The Muse of Enterprise advises to use both times wisely.  If you have a green light go to it.  However, if you are waylaid do not stop and stall.  These times of inertia are meant to regroup and set up for the next steps.

Taurus

Two of Swords – This week is full of indecision.  However, the Muse of Choice reminds you that you can choose left or right.  Either way will get you to where you need to be.  So, flip a coin and carry on.

*Justice – The Muse of Equity has come to have you investigate the concept of balance.  Something in your life is off balance and now is the time to bring some fair play into your life.  If you see an injustice speak up.  Or if you are experiencing an injustice, parlay for better conditions.  If you cannot find or negotiate equity, then you might have to walk away from the situation.

*High Priestess – The Muse of Sacred Purpose comes when in this moment in time you are needed.  You may not realize that opening that door for someone reignites optimism in them, or that conversation changes someone’s perspective.  You are aligned with your higher purpose even when doing these little acts.  This Muse reminds you that these gifts of sacredness, of seeing someone, comes when you are being your most authentic self.  You are the change in the world.

Seven of Wands – At some point this week you will be on the winning side or at an advantage.  The Muse of Competition reminds us to be good sports.  You have had your days in the gutter and know what it is like to not have someone give you a hand to lift you up.  Because of this knowledge you can be better than you have been treated.  Take the high road this week.

*Judgement – If you could transform or liberate one thing in your life, what would it be?  The Muse of Evolution asks you to ponder this question.  This week you have opportunities to level up if you choose.  But if you are not focused on what to transform then it might mutate into something else possible not as helpful or enlightened.

Libra

Knight of Cups – The Muse of Romance would like you to spice up your love life.  She suggests fire-light, coziness, flowers, and intimate gestures.    Now even if you are not in a relationship, you are in one with yourself.  So, take time this week to treat yourself and those you love with extra care.

 

Scorpio

Six of Coins – Reciprocity is the name of the game this week.  The Muse of Mini-karma comes to redistribute wealth and energy this week.  She reminds you if you do a good deed, it will come back around though often in a convoluted way.  But this also works with negativity.  Watch you p’s and q’s this week.

Sagittarius

Two of Wands – Your second energy for this year is the Muse of Mindfulness.  This year it is important that you stay in the moment.  This is not a year to hold on to the past nor is it a year to think too far into the future.  This year is about day to day living.  How you can live fully each day this year.  This Muse suggests either taking a picture a day or writing about one significant thing that happens each day to help take note of the moments.

Capricorn

Nine of Coins – The Muse of Self-Awareness would like you to recognize how good you are at standing in yourself.  This week may have its ups and downs, but you are doing your best mountain goat personification.  You are rock solid even though the ground might not be.

Aquarius
Florence Henri

Knight of Pentacles – The Muse of Stability advises that slow and steady wins the race.  Push back if someone is rushing you.  You know what pace is appropriate for what action.  Take your time, not others.

Pisces

*Chariot – The Muse of Self-Motivation is here to cheer you on to change something.  She advises that you start small at first.  Get rid of one thing you don’t use each day, exercise for 5 minutes each day, eat at least 3 out of the seven colored fruits.  By moving just, a notch in the right direction you begin the process that will gain momentum.  Consistency is more important than amount.
