May 2024

Temperance: The month of May is going to bring you several chances to exercise the word “no” as a complete sentence. You have gone down the path of lesson-learning and difficulty more than a few times. Instead of sending yourself back down that road again, this month will offer you temptation beyond your wildest dreams. It will be your job to see the devil in disguise.

Allow yourself to take a breath before making a decision, but ultimately, you know your worth and the path you are capable of following. You do not need to say “yes” to everything (or everyone) that looks good on paper. Instead, use that superhuman intuition of yours to excuse yourself when the vibes are off. There are no excuses needed when you are only answering to yourself.

April 2024

Page of Pentacles: Cancer, you are starting to learn that sometimes life needs you to take action and focus on the tangible parts of reality rather than your thoughts and feelings. It’s not that the way you’re thinking or feeling doesn’t matter, but it’s not going to get you from point A to point Z. The most important thing for you to do this month is put one foot in front of the other and pick up momentum towards the tasks that are truly important. You don’t want to get to the end of the road and say, “I always wanted to do this thing, why didn’t I just follow through when I had the time?” This is your nudge from the universe to put yourself into the driver’s seat and start to press the gas. This will be especially important when Mars enters Aries on April 30. In short, it’s “go time” for your dreams and goals.

March 2024

Six of Wands: This is a month for celebration and putting yourself in the position to be recognized for Cancer! Your hard work has finally paid off, and although you’ve always known of your potential, others are finally catching up with you. You might receive a bonus, raise, promotion, or work opportunity that finally changes your life. This reward is coming in from the universe to remind you that all of your inner work has not been done in vain. You are finally going to get the chance to step fully into the next chapter of your life, and I promise that there’s no looking back after this point. Relish this moment and don’t be afraid to let out a celebratory “woo!” and dance!

February 2024

Seven of Cups: You are being offered several options this month that will allow you to move forward out of a stagnant space and back into action, Cancer. You are a highly sensitive being, and that doesn’t just mean with emotional displays—instead, you notice minute changes. When you learn how to work with this sensitivity to the world around you, you will start to look at it as a gift. February is going to give you the option to speak up for yourself, make confident choices, and ultimately move forward knowing that you are living authentically. When you start to catch yourself listening to other people’s opinions too often, you will lose sight of your inner voice. Take that power back this month by saying no to people, behaviors, and trends that don’t have your best interests at heart, and forging your way forward!

January 2024

The High Priestess: You are entering into a phase of your life where you are realizing that the people who act like they know it all are the ones who know the least. Instead of sitting on a high horse and thinking that everyone else needs to change, this is the perfect month for you to drop some of your ego and allow yourself to have a more humble and gentle existence. You are great at faking kindness, even to those you don’t like. But instead of faking it, why not consider learning how to be more tolerant, understanding, and compassionate toward the people who live differently than you do? This is the month when you realize how detrimental some of your masks have become. Be patient with yourself as you drop your guard and start to do some real self-reflection this month. You can’t short-cut your way to authenticity and kind-heartedness.
