No main artist this week, other than nature and my friend Thanna who took this picture.

Your pondering for this week: This week I picked a card and then honed it down to a few words to be your light and guide in 2024.

****And I am experimenting again.   I had switched from using the older suits name (pentacles, cups, swords, and wands) to a more elemental way of reading them which is earth, water, air, and fire.  Now I would like to leave the binary and feudal system of the RWS’s court cards.  So, the RWS old version is Page, Knight, Queen, and King is changing to Heart (pure embodiment of element), Body (moving the element), Spirit (living the element) and Mind (taking care of the element).

Solar System highlights

The moon begins the week in Virgo time to organize and plan.   On Wednesday it moves into Libra time to find balance. On Saturday the moon is in Scorpio, explore your passion.

Mercury is back in Sagittarius so you can re-tweak and do more experimenting with your communication skills until February 8th when it rolls back into Capricorn to implement what you have learned.  Mars (action) is in Sagittarius (exploration) until January 4th so investigate and expand our horizons.  The it moves into Capricorn until February 14th.  This is a great time to get things done.  While Venus (beauty and harmony) has moved into Sagittarius until January 23rd, so she would like you to experiment any aspect that increases beauty in your life.

Jupiter (abundance) is in Taurus (grounding) until May 25, 2024, which is all about expanding pleasure but watch overindulgence to May 25th.  And Saturn (structures) is in Pisces thru Feb 13, 2026, so fluidity is the name of the game.

*** Signs with an * it is a big week for you.  Capricorn this is a perfect time to get an Astrological Tarot Reading for your coming year.  And Cancer it is your halfway mark for your birth year, so if you need a Planetary Reading for a check in now is the time. And I have a tip jar if you want to leave a gratuity for the weekly forecasts.

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