Tarot and Art Forecast for Week of Sept. 12, 2021

This week’s artist is Mona Caron, @mona.caron.  Her main art form are murals, beautiful, majestic, but sublime in image and message.  She has a series where she paints weeds larger than life, like side of a building large. The definition of weed is – a wild plant growing where it is not wanted and in competition with cultivated plants.  Weeds are often considered a nuisance.  Something to pull out. Or life barely noticed but eking out an existence in a landscape of urban concrete.  However, Caron utilizes them to show their beauty and resilience.  (Please watch her stop-motion animation, as they sprout out on urban landscapes.)

Often weeds are more native than the plants chosen to be planted in a garden.  Alexis Nikole Nelson known as the “Black Forager” on TikTok shows us that what is considered a weed can be used as an urban food source.  Or Sean Sherman and Dana Thompson’s cook book The Sious Chef’s Indigenous Kitchen highlights native food as foundations of amazingly tasty recipes.  These people are reconnecting us to a lost knowledge base in our society and a broader perspective on what is a weed.

So, the pondering for this week: where in your life do you try to pull out your weeds?  By eradicating them are you missing their beauty, contribution to your resilience, and them as a resource?  Possibly, that your weeds are more native and useful to your actual being than what you are cultivating?

Solar System highlights:  This week the Moon starts in Sagittarius – great for excursions and adventuring through the 13th.  Then the Moon goes into Capricorn a great time to focus on work and getting things done. Then on 17th it goes into Aquarius – time for innovating and tweaking what you did on the previous days.  Also, a great time for deep intellectual conversation and experimentation over the weekend.    Mercury is in Libra– great for communication, creating networks and getting in touch with friends.

Venus is now in Scorpio – time to up your game in actions in your intimate relationships.  And a great time to feed your pleasures and passions in general just watch overindulgences.   Mars moves into Libra – another planet sending energy into investigating relationships this is around the question are your actions following your words?  This theme and work around your relationships is big until Mercury moves Scorpio Nov. 7th.  And lastly, Jupiter and Saturn are in Aquarius – so innovating and upping your game is their focus for the rest of this year.

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

Two of Swords – The Muse of Decisions is here to help you decided.  This week will require a lot of what feels like monumental decisions; however, the individual decisions are not as consequential as the reason behind your decisions. Make sure the why behind what you decided is more tangible then the possibly the decision itself.

Seven of Swords – This is your last week of your birth month and gives you your final theme to the year.  Let’s review.  So far, the Muses to work with in your coming year are Muse of Teamwork, Muse of Transitions, and the Muse of Healing.  So whatever you are working on it is more fortuitous or more likely of having success with more sets of eyes, minds, and hands then just yours.  Your second energy advise for the first part of your journey to travel light.  Do this by physical lightening your load and simplicity are key.  Your third and Big Karmic energy is magic is flowing around you to help heal and reset you on your purpose.   And lastly the Muse of Victory with Small Battles gives you the key to ease.  Break your work processes down to bitesize chunks and any challenge is surmountable.

*Star – The Muse of Healing has come with her first aid kit and tea.  You need some rest and recuperation.  This week might identify some deep wounds that need mending or a deeper contemplation on emotions you are having to succor.  Take advantage of any time you have space to just be with your body and listen.  Ask it what it needs.  Long Bath?  Massage?  Sweat Lodge?  Multiple nights of 8-hour sleeps?  This week is a perfect time to heal the body so it can support the mind and soul.

Seven of Swords – Last week, the Muse of Hermitage has called you back to the cave to gain perspective.  Now the Muse of Cunning has joined to help you figure out how to come back into society with your refreshed perspective without succumbing to societies whims and obligations.  Again, these muses remind you at times the chase or hidden discovery brings more pleasure than something easily won.  You don’t have to hoard your gifts, but you don’t need to give them out like Halloween candy either.

Five of Coins – Last week the Muse of Truth came to help align you to your purpose or to help you find a solution to a problem.  This week brings with it a bit of chaos that can leave you feeling drained of your resources.  However, your newly focused purpose, or the skills you used last week to solve problems will come in handy with this energy.  This Muse reminds you the universe has your back.  The help you need is there is you reach for it.

Four of Cups – The Muse of Inner Wisdom has come with your mediation pillow and yoga mat.  This week belly button gazing is needed.  Your soul/body/mind have some information to disentangle with you.  So, whether you mediate, journal, or doddle.   Tune out the outside so you can tune inward.  Because this inner work has answers so you can tune outward with more ease.  The only challenge you can’t stay in this state past this week.
