Tarot Card of the Week: The Eclipse
Tarot Card of the Week: Sept 28 – Oct 4, 2015
The Eclipse
This week’s card honors the total lunar eclipse that takes place on the evening of September 27th into the morning of the 28th.
This is a Full Moon at 4° Aries 40′ that will peak at 10:50pm ET on the 27th (2:50am UT on the 28th).
The Eclipse card is the Whispering Tarot’s version of the Moon card, which from an astrological perspective is tied to feelings, emotions, intuition and primal instincts, as well as the unconscious mind.
It relates to security issues and needs which can translate to insecurity, uncertainty, fears and apprehensions. And these are all emphasized in the Tarot’s version of the Moon.
It can manifest as confusion, uncertainty or paranoia — especially when we try to analyze it logically, which is foreign to the realm of the Moon. Just as we can’t fully appreciate the beauty of the Moon in the light of day (consciousness), we struggle to grasp its archetypal meaning through the lens of logic or reason.
Weekly Astro Forecast — Sept 27 – Oct 3, 2015
Here is the Psychic Scoop Astrology Forecast for the week of Sept 27 – Oct 3, 2015:
This week starts out with a Saturn / North Node sextile on Sunday. Because the Nodes are always in opposition to one another, Saturn is also automatically trining the South Node. These are harmonious aspects that are good for making favorable business and professional contacts.
Solar and Lunar Eclipses — The Winds of Change
The Keeper of Secrets (The New Moon) is hiding behind the Sun and secrets are hidden!
The High Priestess indicates change — your higher-self is asking you to make a change that is necessary for growth. The New Moon (Solar Eclipse) brings the Dragon’s Tail.
The South Node is related to the “Solar Eclipse — The New Moon” and represents the “Dragon’s Tail” and makes you dissolve a relationship and shed the “Dragon’s Tail” to release what is not working. The South Node also indicates what needs to fall away from you, so you’ll grow and not stay stuck in a rut. The New Moon (new beginnings) makes you think about the changes you want to make!
The New Moon Eclipse (keeper of hidden secrets) is related to the relationship with yourself. The Solar Eclipse is the time of a conjunction — the time when you’ll internalize and look inward — and start thinking about the changes you’ll want to create that will benefit you! At this time the New Moon (the keeper of hidden secrets) is hiding behind the Sun.
The Solar Eclipse represents a sudden unexpected inner change, and this energy will manifest in your thoughts and bring you into the spotlight of awareness about yourself! The energy of the Solar Eclipse will put pressure on you — and you’ll feel motivated to change something about yourself that needs to be changed!
Super Moon. A Time for Healing and Release
It’s a full moon, a time to release the old and unwanted. What will you release tonight?
A bright, full moon has been the object of awe, worship, and intrigue among ancient civilizations for thousands of years and even today people believe in the power and magic of the moon. This year on Sunday, September 27, the closest full moon to the earth will dazzle the night sky, along with an eclipse, so a super whammy for believers in moon magic.
Crystal Therapy: Three Crystals for Meditation
Meditation is a wonderful practice that can provide many benefits to our physical and mental well being. Before we get started in the crystals it is important to give a brief summary about what meditation is and is not, because there is a lot of confusion about the subject.
Tarot Card of the Week: Temperance
Tarot Card of the Week: Sept 21 – Sept 27
Temperance
The card for this week, Temperance, is from The Housewives Tarot by Paul Kepple and Jude Buffman. It is the number 14 card in the Major Arcana. Its ruling sign is Sagittarius, would signify the letter S and tells us patience, adaption, tempering balance or bringing together of two opposites.
Let’s take a look at the imagery of this card, which brings all the ingredients into the sturdy mixer to combine together for the balance we need. Add equal parts of joy and sorrow, anger and forgiveness, justice and compassion. Mix on high for two minutes until well blended.
Temperance is a delicious and healthy combination of opposite sides of the spectrum – a heaping helping of compromise or cooperation in marriage, relationships or partnerships. Spoon this mixture into every aspect of your life.
This card can either mean you need to find balance within yourself, or are working to achieve the balance you need. It’s all about working through whatever issues may be causing you to feel unbalanced.
Weekly Astro Forecast — Sept 20 – Sept 26, 2015
Here is the Psychic Scoop Astrology Forecast for the week of Sept 20 – Sept 26, 2015:
This week starts out with relatively few aspects until Tuesday. This doesn’t mean nothing is happening — far from it! Saturn has just entered Sagittarius (last Friday) and is still at 0°, making for a sense of newness and freshness related to all things Saturn in Sagittarius. A renewed desire for personal growth and expansion for example, or a renewed interest in foreign cultures, travel, education, religion and politics.
The Invisible Man. Part 4 of 12:
This is part 4 in “The Invisible Man” series with a question that comes from a woman we call Annie. Annie was stuck at the cross-roads for many years regarding a relationship break-up that she never saw coming…
Annie is a long time client of mine, and she asked me to go into detail about a man she was engaged to in the past. We will call this man James Bond…
Annie thought she knew James Bond inside and out, but when the relationship ended, unexpectedly and without closure, she realized she didn’t know him like she thought she did!
She had a hard time letting him go and said she should’ve been much further by now, but she is still twisted and stuck in a rut, still looking backwards instead of looking forwards!
She asked me to pull his natal birth chart and take a look at his personality to understand why he would just disappear, unexpectedly, and leave her without closure?
Crystal Therapy: Three Crystals for Fitness
Living a long and healthy life is a goal for many, and developing personal fitness goals and strategies plays a key role in experiencing a long and fulfilling life. These crystals are suitable for individuals at any level of fitness, and can often add a greater depth to the experience of fitness goals. If you are just starting out on your journey of fitness it is important to develop a support system that will help you with your goals. I highly recommend discussing your fitness goals with your doctor, and make sure you develop a strategy that promotes your overall health as well as a practice that suites your lifestyle.
Tarot Card of the Week: The Hermit
Tarot Card of the Week: Sept 14, 2015 – Sept 20, 2015
The Hermit
This week’s card is the Hermit from the beautiful Nicoletta Ceccoli Tarot. The Hermit card refers to the yearning for wisdom and knowledge that so many of us possess but so few of us take the time to nurture and develop.
You may be feeling the need to retreat from others in order to clear your head and recharge your batteries. Or you may be so distracted by the noise and interferences around you that you just want to escape.
The Hermit card responds to these urges by encouraging you to turn inward, to pause and reflect, and to seek your own inner light. It speaks of gaining insight and wisdom through solitude and introspection.
The central figure in this card is a woman dressed in a red-and-white tunic which transforms into a circular spiral formation behind her. She paces around the edge of another circle — this one a pattern painted onto the floor. Along the outer perimeter of the same circle stands her mirror image, in miniature version.
Together they wind their way around the circle, each with the light of a candle to guide their way. The candles provide illumination of a different sort, although they may not even need them: they seem to know the steps by heart. The circular theme is repeated in the shape of the room itself.
Weekly Astro Forecast — Sept 13 – Sept 19, 2015
Here is the Psychic Scoop Astrology Forecast for the week of Sept 13 – Sept 19, 2015:
This week starts with a partial solar eclipse on Sunday (at 2:41 am Eastern time). This is a New Moon at 20° Virgo, the sign associated with work, efficiency, duty and service. This eclipse creates a shift in consciousness related to these areas as well as the house it falls in your natal chart.
