Tarot-strology 2019: Happy Birthday, Capricorn!

Tarot-strology 2019: Happy Birthday, Capricorn!

Capricorn: December 22 – January 20 Element: Earth Ruling planet: Saturn Symbol: Goat Zodiac quality: Cardinal Birthstones: Garnet Birthday Reading: The Lovers, Queen of Hearts, Eight of Pentacles

Solid Capricorn, your steady hand is only matched by your loving heart. As you navigate the year, balance your ability to manage with a loving, compassionate outlook and you will always make the right choice!

[twoladiestarot]

Frustration, fear, self-doubt – these are all normal parts of life. But if they are starting to stop you from doing the things you need to do, or if they are affecting your life in other ways, you should definitely pay attention to them.

This week’s homework:

Quite often, something difficult will hold within it the seed of an amazing breakthrough. If you are currently experiencing depression, stress, or feeling overwhelmed, take some time for yourself. It could be your morning commute, or a long bath–any time you have to just relax. Instead of ruminating over your worries, play the “Back When…” Game. Imagine yourself a couple of years in the future, looking back on your current stresses from a place of safety, security, and well-being. Acknowledge how hard your worked, how frightened you were, how stressed you were. Pat yourself on the back (from the future) for getting through it, for being brave, for being clever. You will remind yourself, on a subconscious level, that “this too shall pass.” At the very least, you’ll have given yourself a little mini-vacation from your stress!

At this time of year, it’s crucial that you pay attention to your mental health. Between the rush of the holiday season, the pressure to be “up,” the news, the weather, it’s no wonder so many of us succumb to seasonal stress. Remember what’s important, take care of yourself, and always look for the hidden breakthrough!

If imposter syndrome starts creeping its way into your subconscious (or conscious) mind, if self-doubt rears its ugly head, just remember that you are more than anyone’s opinion of you. We get so drawn up into comparisons, both internal and external, that we forget to simply be most of the time. Be kind. Be patient. Be understanding.

This week’s homework:

Pay attention to your self talk this week. As things get stressful, does your internal dialogue get testy? Do you criticize yourself? Are you impatient with real and supposed mistakes? Do you freak yourself out with doom and gloom predictions? When your internal thoughts get rough, take a moment for a few deep breaths. Give yourself some distance and then say to yourself, “It’s okay. It’s all going to work out for the best. I am strong enough for this. I’m okay.” See how that affects your stress level.

The best remedy for self-doubt and insecurity is generosity. While this is definitely the time of year when think of generosity to others, don’t forget to be generous with yourself as well. Generosity doesn’t have to be a material thing – give yourself the benefit of the doubt. Ease up on harsh judgements, impossible expectations, and relentless demands for perfection. Be as kind and generous to yourself as you would to a beloved friend.

The world is topsy-turvy this week! Just remember that every disaster is an opportunity in disguise. When you start feeling overwhelmed, remember that each challenge you face allows you the chance to grow as a person and as a soul. You do have what it takes to get through this, one way or another. Remember the reasons. Remember the strength within you. On the other side of the mountain lies joy.

This week’s homework:

No homework this week. Just get it done. And take care of yourself.

This week may find you worrying about money, status, or your level of success in the world. There is a strong pull towards introspection and self-evaluation right now as the days grow shorter and the nights grow longer. In the harvest time of year, it’s normal to assess where you are. Just be sure that the standard you measure yourself against is based on what actually matters, rather than on arbitrary rules set by fickle society.

This week’s homework:

It’s time for inventory, boys and girls. Take an hour or so, grab a notebook and pen, sit down in a warm, comfy chair. Put on some soothing music and make sure you won’t be disturbed. Now, ready? Write down every good thing in your life. Literally down to the minimum. Here’s the trick: They cannot be materially-based things. In other words, instead of writing I have a 2019 BMW sitting in the garage., write I have reliable transportation that is comfortable and fun to drive. Instead of writing I make ____ dollars a year at my job., write I do work that satisfies me, does good in the world, and provides for my family.

We spend so much time putting numbers and dollar signs on our lives, as if that’s what gives them meaning. Numbers are the easiest form of measurement and also one of the most superficial. Numbers can be manipulated to mean anything and often neglect the most relevant measurement of all: are you happy? So as you go through this week and assess your life, ask yourself, all things considered…am I happy?

Auntie D Discusses: Authority, Intuition, and the Dopamine Rush

Auntie D Discusses: Authority, Intuition, and the Dopamine Rush

I spend more time than I should on Twitter.

For someone who grew up with no neighbors, no internet, and no cable TV, the rush of social media is just a miracle. If you’d told 13-year-old (or 18-year-old or 25-year-old) me I’d be able to communicate almost instantaneously with people around the world, that I’d be able to interact with some of my favorite celebrities from television, movies, and…

With each ending comes the opportunity for rebirth, change, and growth. You may be undergoing great changes currently which leave you feeling unmoored and afraid. Remember that you are on a journey and that you have been preparing your entire life for this moment. You are right on track, and you have all that you need to make the proper choices.

This week’s homework:

Identify an area where you are being asked to change. Observe your emotions around that change: are you anxious? Are you resentful? Are you resistant? Or are you confident, energized, and optimistic? If you find yourself having negative responses to changes you cannot and should not deny, take a moment to analyze those responses. Pull yourself out of the picture for a moment. What advice would you give to a stranger facing these changes? A loved one? A student or younger colleague? The answers you need are within you, if you just step back and allow them the space to breathe.

Fear of change is fear of death. Fear of death often comes from a lack of faith in the goodness and rightness of the universe. They say when one door closes, another one opens. As you stand on the threshold of the changes life demands of you, allow your faith to keep you brave and steady as you move confidently toward the future.

As we work towards goals, it’s a challenge to keep motivated. Delays, mistakes, and opposition are a normal part of any journey, and our minds will often use these normal circumstances as excuses to simply give up. This is merely our brains accentuating our own fear of change in order to protect us from real or imagined dangers associated with achieving our goals.

This week’s homework:

When faced with the anxiety that comes from mistakes, bad luck, or merely internal resistance, your best bet is to take a moment to remind yourself of your true purpose. Take a step back from the overwhelming details and remind yourself why you’ve undertaken this task. Are you trying to create a happier, more prosperous life for yourself and your family? Are you trying to express your internal truth in a way that will make the world a better place? Are you simply trying to secure some peace and happiness for yourself in an often harsh and unyielding world?

We so often get caught up in the minutiae of a task that we push the big picture to the back. Reminding yourself of your overall purpose can renew not only your passion for the task, but your faith in its value and purpose. This can elevate you above the slog of details that threaten to overwhelm you and place you squarely back onto the path of hope, faith, and purpose.

Tarot-strology: It's Elementary, My Dears!

Tarot-strology: It’s Elementary, My Dears!

Astrology is a rich and complex system which can take a lifetime to master. One of the easiest ways to get a quick understanding of the signs is through their elements. Like nature itself, our charts are subject to the influences of the four elements: fire, earth, air, and water. Our natal charts reflect the unique composition of elements in our personalities. The influences work together (and…

Does the world seem to have come to a shrieking stop as far as forward progress on your goals? Are you starting to hear the voices of doubt and negativity creep into your thoughts? Yeah, me too.  Anytime you set your goals higher than the lowest of low-hanging fruit, you will have to deal with those lulls in progress where you begin to doubt your abilities. Heck, you may even doubt the wisdom of pursuing your goal in the first place. This is where you need to turn your thoughts away from doubt and acknowledge the progress you’ve already made.

This week’s homework:

Take some time to assess your progress. Go back to your original plans and review what you’ve already accomplished. Are there any steps that need to be adjusted to new circumstance? Any important steps you may have missed or glossed over in favor of easier victories? Now is the time to focus on what you can do instead of what your fear tells you is impossible.

Forward progress may seem like an enormous goal, but it’s really only a thousand little actions strung together like flowers. Acknowledge the work you’ve done, stick to the plan, and just keep moving forward.

Everyday Tarot: How Do You Know What the Cards Mean?

Everyday Tarot: How Do You Know What the Cards Mean?

One of the questions I get so often from new or non-readers is “How do you know what the cards mean when you do a reading?” It really does baffle a lot of people, myself included, that 78 fairly generic pieces of decorated cardboard can provide such intuitive and often highly accurate information.

I don’t claim to know exactly how the cards work. Honestly, that is a rabbit hole any person could…

As you move forward in pursuit of your goals, it isn’t unusual to experience imposter system. Our experience grows gradually, and it can sometimes be difficult to see the progress we’ve made along the way. When you look up from the grindstone and think, “How did I get here,” remember that every advance is comprised of a thousand tiny decisions made consistently and diligently.

This week’s homework:

Get back to basics. If you project has grown beyond what you feel you can handle, review the steps you took to get where you are. As we progress along our path, it’s tempting to let the details slide in favor of “more important” tasks. Remember that every journey consists of tiny steps and the easiest way to go astray is to stop paying attention to the details.

By getting back to the basics, you may discover a new enthusiasm. By lowering the stakes, even for a little while, you take pressure off yourself. This gives you a chance to remember why you started in the first place, and perhaps even what you love about the goal that might have been forgotten. From this place of simplicity springs creativity, enthusiasm, and the ability to discover others who share your passion.
