Happy Birthday Libras!
Libra is the sign that governs balance, partnership, and harmony. Libra’s motto is I relate. Whatever house Libra resides in your natal chart is where these concepts become the place of learning for you. With a nod to Libras this week’s artists are the couple, bonpon511 on Instagram, otherwise known as Tsuyoshi and Tomi Seki. (when you go to their Insta account flip through the photos – they see some cool art shows.)
In May they celebrated their 40th anniversary and their third year in retirement. They have only been matching outfits and documenting them since 2016. As Mrs. Pon says Since we both have gray hair, we thought it’d be funny to match our fashion styles, so we started wearing clothes of the same color and patterns. We decide based on how we feel each day… They have taken what is known in Japan as Osoroi Code, where groups or couples wear matching clothes, to another level. … it’s not just about coordinating our clothes,” said Tsuyoshi. We try to choose outfits that complement our surroundings. What makes a good partnership or harmony varies for all of us. Mrs. Pon credits Mr. Bon for being a work center person leaving early in the day and coming home after midnight to their long and loving relationship.
Finding balance does not mean everything has to be the same. It is about what feels right. This concept of Osoroi Code “matching coordination” is what we should grok from Libra. It is not just about relating to others and our surroundings. It how it feels in its relation. So, this month’s pondering – Am I in harmony with self, others, and my environment? Do have good partners? And most importantly, does it make me smile? Cite
May light be on you, around you, and within you,

P.S. 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.
Aries
Page of Cups – Last week the energy was pushing you to finish projects. Hopefully, you got to do that for this week is all about play. Time to take the focus off doing and more on non-goal-oriented fun. Play is vital for productivity and freeing your mind to discover new connections that stringent scheduling can hinder. So pull out the Legos and crayons.
Taurus
King of Wands – The muse this week wants you to work with your inspirations. Do your inspirations motivate your own work, or have they become distractions that no longer fit your divine purpose or soul? If they do motivate you this is the week to focus on one and go. Write that book, do that art project, tell your boss about that innovation you have thought of. Believe in your visions, point of view and intellect.
Gemini
Ace of Swords – Last week was about working in the realm of the subtle. Using your intuition as your compass to navigate the mists. It made you sensitive to the current of your surroundings which helps you with this week decisions, inquiries, and problems. With your finely tuned intuition and your sharpened intellect you bring much needed awareness and clarity to situations.
Cancer
King of Cups – This week’s energy can bring on your emotions. However, you have the Muse of Emotions helping you see that this outpouring of feelings are paths to self-discovery. That what awaits in the middle of the feeling storm is a calm place of compassion and knowing. Dive into the whys of how you are feeling without being swept away in the currents who, what, where and how. This energy, if used correctly with love, can heal.
Leo
Three of Cups – Last week the muses were guiding you to an awaken. By accepting your flaws are rooted in your humanness, you began incorporating them as positive influences instead of distractions. The muses this week will lead you through the phases of life. You need to connect to not just people in your age group but also those above and below. By befriending other ages, you will find connections to your past, your future and firmly ground you in your present.
Virgo
*World – This week is great for finishing up projects. You can start something new; however, it is vital that you clear off some of the debris left over from last birth year. You do not need or want to carry useless crap into 2021. Mars is in retrograde until November 12th and Mercury will go retro during that time, too. You have until mid-November to tie things up, so what is seeded can start to grow without hinderance or shade.
Libra
Page of Swords – The best thing to do with this week’s energy is to come at it like a news reporter. You find out more by asking question and doing some deep listening. Not all information is on the surface, so inquiry and sensitivity are need to get to the real truth. Since this is also your birth month. Turn some of that inquiry to investigating what do you want in the coming year.
Scorpio
Ten of Wands – The energy this week is about prioritizing your obligations. This muse recommends ordering your work and then take the two lowest ranked tasks off you list. Put them aside until next week and see if either someone else picked them up because they were not yours in the first place, or they just magically disappear.
Sagittarius
Eight of Coins – More work energy this week. This vibe is great for advancing projects to the next step. However, is not a great time for starting something new. If you do, it can feel like Sisyphus rolling your rock up to have it fall again. So, stick to what you know and plow through that.
Capricorn
Two of Swords – Last week, the Muse of Manifestation was there to facilitate calling down your energy and to create on the material plane. This week is more of the same; however, do not vacillate on making decisions. Now is the time to choose. You will find out later that the choice did not matter as much for you end up in the same place. However, in making your choices go with the feeling and less with the logic. It is more about the journey then the destination.
Aquarius
Four of Cups – The energy continues with your work and building upon your empire. Continue getting things off your to do list. However, where last week’s energy was about navigating chaos, this week’s distraction comes from within. It is fine to do some introspection but diving deep into your pondering mind will take you off course. So, if you find yourself going down the rabbit hole, change your perspective to the outside and do something you love in the world.
Pisces
Two of Coins – The energy this week is about balance. Something in your life is out of sync. Usually with this energy it literally means you need to work on physical balance. Like not enough veggies or water or you need to practice yoga or Tai Chi. And/or your work/life balance can be out of whack. So, time for an adjustment.
Ace of Wands – This week inspires passionate new beginnings, electrical ideas, and vibrant musings. This is a great week to explore your creativity and imagination. Experiment and playing with ideas is best.
Six of Pentacles – The key this week is about the energy exchange in giving and receiving. And the two are not so different except in your perception and feelings in either position. The challenge is trying to find more joy in receiving and gratitude with giving.
*Lovers – This energy is one of your life lessons. The Lovers card embodies the aspect of duality and choice. Now is the time to commit to a choice or two. The key to choosing is to let go of old panics and unhealthy decision of the past. They are lesson learned and you will not make those mistakes again. But to make these choices you must open your heart and trust in yourself that if needed you will see the red flags and pay heed to their warnings. This is a time to trust your gut and make some choices.
King of Cups – Last week was about letting go of the old and sloughing off the things that no longer work for you. This releasing is generating the fodder for new beginnings, and this week you have more time to process this primordial ooze lapping at your shores. Accepting all your emotions are key to this process of evolution. As Rumi suggests in 
Queen of Cups and Seven of Cups – So this week can go into the land of disillusionment or into self-acceptance and choice. You have one energy inviting you to self-discovery, compassion, and passion. Where your empathy gains strength without taking on other people’s baggage, and your actions align with your heart’s choice. The other vibe has the mind tricking the heart that there are more choices to think about. Now is the time to make a compassionate heart choice and see it through to action.
King of Wands – Visionary thinking will be needed to navigate this week’s energy. Though it has positive tones this energy can burn your edges or possible crisp you to your core. BUT you are supposed to emulate the phoenix and rise again inspired and enlightened. The key to this is you cannot do this alone. You need your people to guard your back and bring you sustenance during your rebirth. Your task is only to fall madly in love with your new goals and aspirations.
Six of Swords – The energy this week lends a helping hand with difficult transitions. The challenge is seeing and following the breadcrumbs of serendipity through the mist of uncertainty. You will find help from unexpected sources. Eyes, ears and mind open.
Two of Wands – This is a great week to make plans for the distant future. Where do you want to be a year from now? What new experiences do you want to manifest? By casting your line farther out in the future you will catch bigger and better fish.
Knight of Coins – The energy this week is slow and steady wins the race. This is a great week to create action and movement on any project you pick. Relax into the tasks you have there is no rush. The only challenge is being consistent and doing a bit every day. While balancing it with equal time and energy just kicking back and living life.
Seven of Wands – You deserve this success. This week do not let anyone dim your accomplishments. Defend this spark and push away any darkness inflicted by others or your doubting self. Fill your heart with joy of accomplishment.
Page of Wands – This week is full of inspirations, solutions, and potentials. The challenge is rooting them into your core truths then taking action to bring them into reality. The key is not getting over-whelmed so pick one or two to start with.
Five of Coins – Last week your task was to ground and deepen your connection to how strong you really are. Hopefully, you took the time to do that because this week’s energy wants you to tackle your relationship with money. That can look like putting money into savings, asking for help, seeing that you have been through worse or raising your prices. You can take positive actions this week to accept your worthiness and heal the rift between your wealth, self-worth and feeling financially secure.
*Judgement – This week’s energy is about evolution and awakening to your divine nature. Time to allow self-compassion and forgiveness to leave the past in the past. The question to ponder this week is am I fulfilling my purpose or calling? If not, this is the time to start creating the parameters to allow your evolution. If you are, take it to the next level.
*Empress – The energy around you is dripping with creation. With the power of love anything can flourish: plants, children, creativity… You have the seeds in your hands. What will you plant? What will you nurture and grow? Your only challenge is not to control all the expansion. Just be in tune with your big bang heart and give to the energy of creation.
4 of Coins – Savings is in the air around you. What do you need to feel financial safe? What on the material plane do you need, to feel you have your own back? A new car? 6 months savings? Now is the time to make sure you know what you require and start to save for it. Your challenge is to remember though it is always nice to have and build more they are not the only essentials for joy.
*Hierophant – The outdated systems are crumbling around you. Hollow out by a loss of integrity or alignment to who you are now. What will be the systems you put into their cavities? What new structures need to be built to access this next part of your journey? New structures, boundaries and schedules need to be created.
5 of Cups – Emotions like grief, sadness and hurt are lingering around you, and this energy wants you to feel into the feelings. Dive deep with empathy and process them, and when you get to the bottom you will find a reservoir of love, laughter, and hopefulness. Your challenge is processing is a process.
Queen of Wands – This week’s energy invites you to engage with inspiration. Follow your internal compass, exploring places in nature or things that create awe. A Muse is waiting there to entice, support and sprout originality and creativity. The challenge is pushing your boundaries around concepts of self-acceptance, courage, and leadership. Color outside the lines.
Knight of Coins – The energy around you is about diligence and work. The challenge is relaxing into the tasks you love and find meaning in the tasks you do not. This is not a week to future trip or think of goals but to keep a steady pace forward.
Ace of Coins – The energy this week is expansion and growth on your material plane. Look in your environment for seeds to plant and what roots to grow. This is a time for new opportunities.
7 of Coins – This week’s energy could slow time for you. This plateau of pause if perfect for the 3 R’s: reflect, review, and reassess especially around work, projects, your physical environment, and anything on the material plane. Your harvest is around the corner take this time to prepare and tweak what is not just right.
Four of Cups – The energy this week has a tendency to be self-indulgent by being self-deflecting. The challenge is seeing your own self-worth. You are here for a reason yes, but literally part of that reason is you being you. Reflect on your unique qualities that you bring to the table and focus on strengthening them.
5 of Coins – The energies around you are working with you and your relationship to money and prestige. Who you are has little to do with what you own or your work that makes you money. You know that, but you are losing your concept of self-worth with only what you do on the material plane. Take this week to reflect on what people love you for.
6 of Wands – Last couple of weeks had you seeing the depth of your energy-well and how to manifest on the material, mental and people planes. This week the energy level dials back just a little. You are in the spotlight of success this week. Can you see it? Can you see how far you have come to creating the future you wanted? Take this week to sit in that dusting of confetti celebration. Be proud of all that you have done and take this week to prepare for the battles and victories yet to come.
Two of Coins – Last week, change was in the air if you didn’t try forcing it. The energy wanted you to work with the ebbs and flows of natural cycles. Sharing the job of creating movement with the universe continues this week. If you share the burden, you will feel less like you are spinning plates and/or overwhelmed. The part is to work on your balancing act and be flexible.
*Death – Change is in the air this week if you would just let go of trying to force it to happen. This energy wants you to work with the ebbs and flows of natural cycles. Though this downturn in energy feels like stagnation, it is actually waiting for you to sort out what you fear will change. Take your hand off the wheel and let the universe drive. 
*Judgement – Again big energy and I know you might be feeling wiped out. All of March was a roller coaster of forces guiding you through your triggers, compassion for the universe and yourself, challenged you to weed to find room for the new, and then asked you to connect deeply with your spirit to gain more information on how to lead by example. And now this week’s energy is about rebirth. Your challenge is to answer what has this past month taught you? What has awakened you to be closer to your calling and the understand of it? 
*Hanged Man – You are resisting using this time as a moment to gain perspective. You are percieving this energy delaying you, but it challenges you by asking delaying you from what? This is big energy and has the potential for you to stockpile this inert energy like a pulling back a rubber band. This time is just a pause a place to reset or to reimagine your destiny. Take this time to gather your strength and gain perspective on where to you want to go after this pause. 
Nine of Swords – Last week you were feeling the chaos like energy of the worldwide change. And you had to wrestle with the idea of not having control over these big outside forces of change. The forces advised controlling only your small sphere and then allowing the rest to wash over you like a wave. This week you are still grappling with letting go. Worries still needle you like tiny gnats. The energy this week advise you to focus on hope instead of hopelessness. 
Six of Coins – Last week you needed to heed and hone your inner voice. Looking for the hidden truths, the synchronicities and cycles. Your discoveries have you feeling as if you do not have enough resources to deal with this week’s energy. However, if you put selfcare first, you don’t have to be stingy with the rest of your energy. So, heed the phrase put the air-mask on yourself first before helping others with theirs. But keep in mind they do need help and you can expend yours. 
Ace of Coins – The energy of grounded beginnings is rumbling under you. This is a great week to start a new project. Do not loss this opportunity even though you may be staying at home. All seeds are started in the dark. This is a time to water some ideas and see what sprouts in the coming weeks. 
Messenger – There are messages all around you this week. Your spirit guides are in your midst, protecting and divining to you what is and isn’t important. You will get some straightforward clues but also look for hidden meanings in synchronicities. 
Nine of Coins – This week energy is about abundance and finding ways to reward yourself and others. However, luxuries have a new meaning at this time. What were you taking for grant that now this week has become a luxury? And how can you share and enjoy them with yourself and others? 
Four of Cups – The energy this week continues your need for mediation. Where last week you needed to pull away from the everyday to gain perspective, this week you will need to occasionally look to your outer sphere to gain a fuller picture. Try to divide your time in to ¾ introvertive behavior and the last 1/4 as an extrovert. 
Three of Coins – Relationships and creation are again the resonating energy this week. However where last week your investigation where in the notions of contentment and choice respectively. Putting energy into relationships that bring serenity and envisaging the implementation of creating is based in choice. This week there is less contemplation and more active collaboration. Even if you are stuck inside take time to zoom, skype or face time with others. You need people as bouncing boards and to challenge you to get to the next level, not to mention some playful banter to liven your spirits. 
Page of Cups – This week’s energy is about looking for the brighter side of things. Your sign is the one that inspires humanity and raise us up to the next level. So, use your curiosity and rose-colored glass envisioning you and us a brighter future. 
Page of Wands – Pull out your paintbrushes, crayons, pencils, scissors, glue, wood tools and create. The challenge with this creative energy is not about having a goal but about investigating your mediums. This energy is best used in discovery and exploration. Doing so will bring you closer to a place where movement can happen.
