I wanted to draw a few cards for this week, keeping in mind some of the planetary energy: the Moon starts the week in impatient Aries and then enters sensual Taurus Wednesday night. Over the weekend the Moon is in talkative Gemini.
And the most notable transits take place either near the weekend or on the weekend: Uranus going retrograde, Mercury going retrograde, the Sun in Cancer squaring Saturn.
So already we can feel a punchy beginning due to the Moon in Aries and full speed ahead but then the energy builds (as it slows = Taurus Moon) and it builds to reversal i.e. the retros.
What does this mean for you according to the cards?
1)
Overall, however you feel right now is changing, will change, so hold tight. It looks like you are going through a difficult passage but remember: the Swords suit is “mental.” Your perspective can be shifted. You wake up in the morning and you forget everything you’ve learned and who you are. Bad dreams, perhaps. In either case, pull out those swords one by one, dab something sweet on the wound, and bravely face the day. Think of one beautiful thing in your life that you are happy about. Start there.
2)
And although you feel like you are waiting for something that will never arrive, it will arrive. Just that some moments feel stark. Take a look around the room. I know you feel sad. I am thinking of the Psalms, David crying out in the wilderness to his God. Your enemies will not prevail. They will drink their own poison. You? Stay out of it. Live your life.
3)
A happy ending. How do you get there? Being kind to yourself. Being kind to your people. Being kind. Do not isolate. You are not alone. There is a sweetness in your life, like the Moon in Taurus. Others may wish to restrict or delay that sweetness but fate is working against them. You need do nothing but live your life.

What a stark reading. Stark cards this morning. Feels very Scorpio to me as well. I am going to pull one more card. Things will change sooner than you think and change for the better. A message arrives from the 8 of Wands: do not delay.
What’s your card for the week?
Love, MP

Thank you for the comforting words, once again. Your tarot readings are the best! Feeling that little bit less stark and that little bit makes all the difference.
Happy Birthday Aliza! Bigs hugs across the ethers
actually i dont find this a stark reading. its very positive & encouragng in fact.partly your style maybe – i DO love the way you write 🙂
Well, this week is starting out better- focusing on physical stuff- home improvement stuff. And, Josh is coming home to visit Friday:). He is a Gemini and is going to help me edit my resume which I worked on last week and I detest doing that kind of thing. The teacher I worked with for so long (a Libra) wrote me a really nice letter of recommendation. So, maybe that’s why I pulled the King of Swords this morning. Painting ceilings and walls can be dull and tiring and tedious but it sort of gives my mind a rest.

Good luck with your resume!
But, you know, I need to say that , as far as the cards go, that is TOTALLY how I felt LAST week- I guess due to the full moon in my 10th house- overwhelmed, depressed, etc. I was trying to do too much, including quitting smoking, so I gave that up after 4 days- just not a good time to quit- too much going on. Things have just gone more smoothly this week- maybe the Mars stuff, even tho its oppositions and squares; maybe its energizing for me.
Adios!
Ahh.. Moon that is such a great reading for this week.. Waking up today felt a bit sad. But going to carry those cards in my heart.. Thank you 🙂
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Aliza!!!!!! Hope you have a great one 😉
Two things are happening for me: I’ve had a lot of accidents over the past few weeks (dropped my motorcycle and burned my leg, fell down the stairs, backed my car into an SUV, ETC). Hopefully that’s the end of that. I feel like a bit of a freak. The other thing: men are falling down around my feet like rain. Feels very full and saturated with possibility. And… I met someone I really like. Only one date so far (and it was yesterday during the voc moon!! Is that bad?) but wow it was good.
