November 2021 Tarotscope

Hello again, everybody! Are you ready for Halloween? My city canceled trick or treating for 2020, but 93% of parents surveyed plan to send their children out this year. The same local survey results indicate more than half of us will refuse to open our doors. Sorry, kiddos, but I feast, pay homage to the spirits, and watch horror movies that day. Important traditions to uphold.

I chose the Everyday Witch Tarot by Deborah Blake and Elisabeth Alba for November’s Tarotscope. This deck plays with the stereotype of a broom-riding witch in pointed hat, a cat companion nearby. Alba’s art weaves these familiar symbols into the Rider Waite Smith structure using a primarily female cast and style reminiscent of a graphic novel. Some overhauled cards result in different meanings, but I enjoy the changes. I love this deck’s bright colors, my clients usually react to it well, and it shuffles beautifully despite thinner cardstock. If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll see I kept this deck in regular rotation all year long. It’s among my favorites.

All Signs – Magician (Top). Left to Right: Aries – 5 of Pentacles Reversed, Taurus – 10 of Cups, Gemini – 3 of Wands, Cancer – Page of Cups.

All Signs – The Magician – True power comes from within us. Whether we want to grow spiritually or accomplish a mundane task in November, we already possess the necessary tools. Combine intelligence and intuition to use them to their full capabilities. Remember that no resource is limitless. What is taken must be replaced.

Aries – Five of Pentacles Reversed – You persevered through October’s rough patches, Aries. The situation brightens in November, providing the means for recovery if you make practical use of it. When opportunity knocks, don’t ignore it. You probably won’t end up sitting at the king’s table, but you certainly can come in from the cold.

Taurus – Ten of Cups – We measure one kind of wealth in money and another kind in people. This month, the love you have invested in developing and supporting your social circle returns to you tenfold. This card represents a time of great joy and contentment with family and friends. This may feel like a dream, Taurus, but it isn’t. You earned it.

Gemini – Three of Wands – Success is so close, Gemini. You’re making sparks and soon you’ll start a fire. Just be sure to use all the resources at your disposal and keep your mind open to new options. Don’t be so fixated on one method that you can’t see any others. The new idea may be the stroke of genius that saves the day. 

Cancer – Page of Cups – Are you ready to try something new, Cancer? A burst of curiosity and youthful enthusiasm prods you to explore different ways of thinking in November. Now is the time to learn a new skill or hobby, or let your inner child loose through creative play. Make use of this period to get out of any rut you’ve been in.

Top: Leo – 5 of Wands, Virgo – 6 of Cups, Libra – Queen of Cups, Scorpio – 7 of Pentacles. Bottom: Sagittarius – Page of Swords, Capricorn – Death, Aquarius – 6 of Swords, Pisces – Tower.

Leo – Five of Wands – Too many chefs ruin the broth… and you walk into a very crowded kitchen this month. Differing opinions and competing egos can impede progress in November. A team is more than the sum of its parts, Leo. Consider the mental and emotional energy you contribute to the mix. What can you add or subtract to create the perfect blend you desire?

Virgo – Six of Cups – Never underestimate the effect even your tiniest gesture can have on the world, Virgo. Be on the lookout in November for small acts of kindness you can perform to assist others. Now is an excellent time to share or give gifts. It shows those you care about how much you love them and helps establish goodwill among strangers. Just give without expectation of getting in return. This month is about creating relationships and memories, not reciprocal contracts.

Libra – Queen of Cups – Oh, the ever-balanced Libra… The scales tip this month when your heart leads for a change! Creativity flows freely, and you feel drawn to finally jumpstart those pet projects of yours in November. As you nurture those passions over the next four weeks, make sure to surround yourself with loved ones who support your endeavors — and who you support wholeheartedly in return. 

Scorpio – Seven of Pentacles – Don’t force the issue when impatience flares in November, Scorpio. Instead, take a step back and assess where you are and where you still need to go. Think carefully and make the most of your work so far and the resources at your disposal. Keep watch for a helping hand that may be no help at all.

Sagittarius – Page of Swords – A new idea seizes you in November and fills you with endless curiosity and boundless enthusiasm. You’ll talk to anyone who’ll listen about your new passion, which generates opportunities to meet like-minded individuals. Sagittarius, try to think through the practicality of your schemes before you commit to any mad plans. Will these fantasies stand up to the light of day?

Capricorn – Death – As Halloween season comes to a close, Capricorn, so with it ends an era of your life. This is not the unexpected change represented by the Tower, but rather a gradual finale that you’ve seen in the works for a while. You may find the change temporarily uncomfortable, but you possess innately what you need to transform. If you let go of this phase, you make space for metamorphosis into something new.

Aquarius – Six of Swords – You can’t deny it any longer. Circumstances make it clear the time has come to seek greener pastures. Assemble who and what you need to leave, and move on to your new endeavors without fanfare. Be stealthy, Aquarius. Your troubles are more than willing to follow you home if you make a big deal about your departure.

Pisces – The Tower – Kaboom! Like magic, structures tumble unexpectedly this month, sending your environment into chaos. Yet as everyone around you scrambles to find their place in the disorder, you calmly (almost smugly) know where you stand. It’s as if part of you thrives off the mayhem. Pisces, it’s one thing to shine in a crisis, but try not to flirt with disaster!

That’s it for November’s Tarotscope. May this look at the Everyday Witch Tarot have brought you some insight for next month. Need a private reading? My services are listed here and on my website. Follow me on Facebook and Instagram for free daily readings, and find my books on Amazon.

Have a safe and happy holiday, whatever way you choose to celebrate. Happy Halloween! Happy Rite to Eurynomous, and blessings of the season to you.

See you in December.

Honouring the Death Current

We are less than a week away from Samhain and the Rite to Eury and everywhere we look we can spot pumpkins, ghosts, and assorted other decorations.  The week leading up to Halloween can be filled with meaningful ways of honouring the Death current so that we build the energy all week long, rather than simply jumping in on the day.

Here is an idea list to help get you in the right frame of mind.

Day 7 Prepare an altar in your home dedicated to the Death Daemonic. It doesn’t have to be elaborate. A simple candle, incense, and a plate with offerings like apples and pomegranates is perfect. If you have any statues or artwork, add those as well.

Day 6 Create a sacred space for your ancestors.  Put out pictures, treasured items, favourite foods, and candles on a small table or shelf. Remember your loved ones and know that they are with you.

Day 5 Take a walk in nature.  Don’t rush this one. Give yourself plenty of time so that you can appreciate the changes that are happening all around you. Note how vibrant and alive the trees look in their colourful leaves and yet we know that they are actually dying. Nature simply accepts that change is happening and that it will happen when the time is right. This is a lesson that we also need to learn.

Day 4 Create Mourner’s Salt. Every year at this time I make my Mourner’s salt for the year ahead. Mix course sea salt, lavender, comfrey, frankincense, mugwort, and poppy seeds together while focusing on aiding the dead to pass easily and for the living to move past the pain of losing a loved one. Store in a glass jar and keep on your Death Daemonic altar until needed.

Day 3 Host a Silent Supper.  You can do this with a select group of friends or even by yourself. I always set an extra place setting for the Dead when I do these. Pay attention to anything that happens during the supper and definitely to any dreams that you may have that night.

Day 2 Remember the Forgotten. Pick up some flowers at your local shop, they don’t have to expensive; simple seasonal flower bouquets work as well as roses. Go to a cemetery and look for the gravestones that look forgotten. Place a flower on the grave and say a simple prayer or remembrance.

Day 1 Rite to Eury. By now you have most likely attuned yourself to the energy that is prevalent this time of year, which should make your Rite to Eury that much more meaningful and powerful.

When You’re Feeling Disconnected

Every so often I get contacted by someone who feels disconnected with the Daemonic and they ask me how to get back on track.


There can be many reasons for a disconnect, but I find these four are the most common:


1. You’ve fallen out of love with the practice. When we start working with Daemons, there’s this forbidden excitement surrounding the work. But, like with anything, the newness and excitement wears off. The work is no longer dark and scary, or as exciting as it once was, and what you’re actually feeling isn’t a “disconnect”, but rather the lack of excitement, which a lot of people mistake for a disconnect. The Fix: If you’re hooked on the excitement, and the loss of it, it may be time to really explore WHY you’re practicing and whether it’s just part of an image or something sincere. This exploration of WHY you chose your path, WHAT you believe, and whether or not you’ve chosen the right path is often enough to give a practitioner enough perspective to decide whether or not to continue with the practice. Please note that it’s okay to walk away if Daemonolatry or magick was just a “phase” for you. It is for a lot of people and only about 25% of people (approximately) who get into a magickal practice or LHP spiritual paradigm will actually stick with the practice beyond 10 years. Not everyone is destined to be a lifelong Daemonolater/mage and that’s okay.


2. You are stressed out. Especially with magickal/spiritual practice, most people are “weekend magicians”. They keep their magick in the closet most of the time, and only pull it out when they need something, or on weekends or evenings when they have time for it. Their Daemonolatry is it’s own little part of their life that gets hidden away until it’s convenient and needed. What I’m saying is people tend to compartmentalize their life like this. So, when other areas of one’s life are in turmoil and you’re stressed about your relationships, your family, your job — it is VERY common to feel the disconnect because you’re too preoccupied or stressed out to be fully present for the spiritual practice and/or the magick. People who incorporate Daemonolatry into every part of their life are less likely to feel this disconnect. The Fix: Start meditating 10 minutes every day, and “opening and closing” your altar/temple every day. By opening and closing I mean reciting enns for the Daemon(s) you’re working with [or the elementals] lighting a candle and an incense stick in the morning, and again at night. Let the candle burn about 5 minutes each time.  A lot of people also report that getting back to nature helps reconnect them in instances like this.


3. You dwell in Daemonic presence. This tends to start happening for people who have had a daily practice for 10+ years. We fall into routines and habits and get settled in our magickal ways.  Your home becomes so saturated with Daemonic energy, you find comfort in it and you are no longer able to “feel” that energy change in a room when the Daemonic appear because you’re used to it. It’s your new normal. You mistake it as the natural comfort of being home. The Fix: Head out into nature (or any location outside your home temple) and do some magick/ritual, or mix things up and try a ritual construct new to you!  Basically – step out of your comfort zone.

4. You don’t practice regularly. You’d be amazed at how not having a disciplined, regular practice, can decrease your feelings of connectedness. It also decreases your chances of having those supernatural experiences so many people crave as proof. The more you practice, the higher the number of experiences you have. The Fix: Start a daily practice and stick with it! If you are unsure how to start a daily practice – check out these posts. Daily Practice, Daily Ritual, Regular Practice.

October 2021 Tarotscope

Welcome to October! Although I’m still treated to a few sultry summer afternoons where I live, Autumn leaves already litter my backyard in a dazzling display. May where you live look and feel just as beautiful this time of year.

This month, I decided to stick with cards close to my heart, the Dukanté Daemonic Sigil Divination Deck. Printed in black and white, it features nothing but the daemon’s sigils and their names. Playing card-sized with a reversible back, I find them perfect for divination or magical work. I wish there was a Goetia deck produced in a similar style! This deck includes 41 sigils from the Dukanté hierarchy but no booklet, encouraging readers to produce their own meanings from their personal work with the daemons. That said, Sigillum Diaboli by S. Connolly suggests interpretations for the 16 sigils originally collected together for divination purposes. Although I occasionally use the whole deck for readings, I typically stick to these since they give me enough information on their own.

On to October’s reading!

All Signs – Ashtaroth – Ashtaroth’s energy rules over all signs in October. Expect helpful friends and allies to come to our assistance in difficult situations over the next four weeks. While this time is usually dedicated to the Death Demonic, pulling this sigil suggests our insight and intuition will be especially clear right now. Try reaching out to Spirit or your ancestors using divination of all sorts.

Aries – Unsere – Home and family reign supreme this month, Aries. This is a fertile time for both team and solitary creative work. You can reach your goals through (mutual) patience and understanding. Ask yourself what you would like to grow and nurture those efforts.

Taurus – Tezrian – Do you feel battle-weary, Taurus? Although pulling this sigil can mean someone is out to get you, it just as often points to exhaustion from warring with yourself, not someone else. Either way, you need to tend to your wounds before you enter the fray again. Make sure you look after yourself as you plan your strategy for the weeks ahead.

Gemini – Leviathan – Leviathan’s influence in October deepens your sense of empathy for others, Gemini. This provides greater emotional insight into their character as well as your own. With this wisdom, you can forge a truce and build peace between yourself and others. Now is the moment to heal old wounds.

Cancer – Lucifer – You rebel! A flash of insight leads to out-of-the-box thinking this month. It breaks the rules, but it also saves the day. New beginnings spring from this solution. Expect a bit of a sharp learning curve, but don’t fret — you’ve got what it takes to make the climb!

Leo – Eurynomous – You see the light, Leo… The light at the end of a long, dark tunnel. One phase of your life ends in October for another to begin. As frightening as this change may be, it is unavoidable, so best embrace the energy. Look into the future and map your way. 

Virgo – Delepitoré – Magic is in the air, Virgo! Your creative juices flow in October. You can make your dreams a reality if you’re willing to focus your efforts. You possess all the tools needed to manifest your goals. This is the perfect period for sorcery meant to produce tangible, in-hand results. Coupled with Ashtaroth’s influence, you’re making sparks! 

Libra – Belphegore Reversed – High hopes set you up for a downfall this month, Libra. No matter how much you want (and maybe even deserve) the largest piece of the pie, you’re not going to get it right now. Be careful how you express your disappointment. Selfishness doesn’t look good on anyone. Do you really want your fair share, or are you just being greedy?

Scorpio – Lucifuge – Take hold of the reins, Scorpio, because you’re in for a bumpy ride! Obstacles appear to impede your progress this month. Don’t worry. You can solve these problems and prove you’ve got what it takes with skills you’ve mastered along the way.

Sagittarius – Rosier – Get ready to feel the love in October, Sagittarius! Look forward to building and strengthening the loving relationships in your life next month, romantic and otherwise. Rosier’s energy reinforces current bonds and helps form new ones. It can even assist with the most challenging relationship of all: the one you have with yourself. Remember real love starts at home.

Capricorn – Belial – Hard work pays off with a month of stability. Without family drama or financial hardship, October may not prove terribly exciting. Still, you possess all the resources you need, Capricorn. A plentiful time on multiple levels. 

Aquarius – Amducius Reversed – You win some and you lose some, Aquarius. It’s how you deal with the losses that matter long-term. Don’t let frustration or anger cause you to act rashly in October. Strategize and move appropriately when the time is right. 

Pisces – Verrine – Verrine’s influence emphasizes the need to look after your health in October. Even those Pisces in peak condition check in with their bodies and minds once in a while to keep them in top shape. Take a moment this month to give yourself a tune-up — or at least take a brief break to assess where you are and where you could be. What would your optimum performance look like?

That’s the end of this month’s Tarotscope. I hope this peek at the Dukanté Daemonic Sigil Divination Deck will encourage you to work with the sigils and provide some insight for October.

Liturgy to Leviathan

Oh, great serpent, in your glorious light of truth – hear us.

We come here today to honor you and the element of your creation.

He of the vast oceans both within and without.

Hail Leviathan, King of Water.

Lord of wisdom, intuition, and truth.

Bestow upon all present today peace, comforting truth, and freedom from anxiety and emotional distress.

May the waters of his divine nature hold you in their embrace and free you from your burdens.

Let the sound of his tranquil voice guide you to serenity.

Hail Leviathan.

The Dark Mirror Oracle

Last week I was able to visit a new little metaphysical shop that just opened and of course I was drawn to the divination tools. My daughter pointed out one deck in particular and I fell in love. The Dark Mirror Oracle Cards are the deck I am focusing on this month to give us some insight.

I pulled the card of Fragmentation for the upcoming month. We are heading into one of the busiest times of the year, where we get pulled in so many different directions in order to please everyone in our lives. This can lead us to forgetting about our own needs and wants as we prioritize others over ourselves. Frustration levels can rise quickly and take the pleasure out of the holiday seasons.

This card reminds us that if we do not maintain a sense of balance that we will lose parts of ourselves along the way causing us to feel anger not only towards others but also ourselves. This is where the card wants us to focus. Ensuring a healthy balance can keep away any feelings of resentment or anger from growing and causing havoc in our lives and relationships.

This card also gives hope that even if we feel as if we are going to break, that we can always be healed. We might not be exactly as we were before, but we will be who we need to be.

The Preeminent Curse

While this was released earlier this year on my list, and list members enjoy more options for printed formats, The Preeminent Curse is now available in case wrap hardcover* for those in the general public. (*Please note that cover for the case-wrap edition is different.)

The Preeminent Curse is a manual of Daemonic execration magick for traditional Daemonolaters. This book builds upon S. Connolly’s Curses, Hexes, & Crossings with Daemonolatry specific execration magick. The book includes curse work utilizing Goetic Daemons as well as the self-work that needs to be done before the execration magick.

On Invocation

Invocation can be understood as the calling upon a god, demon, or spirit to assist you in your work. As I understand it, there are two forms of invocation which may be useful for the practicing mage: Simple Invocation- The calling out to an entity to be present during your ritual, to lend their energies to your rite. True Invocation- The calling out to an entity to merge with you, shifting your aura and energy to become them for a time. 


Simple invocation can be accomplished by chanting the demon or spirit’s name over and over, requesting they be present with you. This can be supplemented with the vibration of enns or words of power created for the entity. Example: “Lord Flereous, attend upon this rite and lend your fiery energy to it’s fulfillment. Ganic tasa fubin Flereous!” If successful, you will feel the presence and energy of the demon in the room with you. You may feel charged up, electric, cold or hot, etc. Take note of the shift in consciousness. Visualization can add to the potency of the invocation. You may envision the demon (in this case Flereous) appear and set the circle on fire. The room glows a red/orange within the confines of the flaming circle. You may then direct the fire energy into your written request or sigils of intent, then burn them after giving a blood offering. Use visualizations which correspond to the demon’s element and/or intent of the rite. 

True Invocation is best practiced for 3 days in a row up to 7. Prepare an invocation (written in your own words) This should include the name of the demon, it’s description, and the reason you are invoking the demon, as well as final lines calling the demon to rise up within your body and dwell within you for a set time you mention. As with Evocation, call the demon in the name of their superior demon and/or Satan. Cast your circle (if any). Inscribe the sigil of the demon and bloodlet upon it.
Envision your aura glowing the same color of the demon’s element (or a color you feel the demon emanates). It extends about a foot out from your body in all directions. 

Recite the invocation you have prepared with a strong, powerful voice. As you recite the invocation, imagine your aura shifting, from your form to the form of the demon. By the time you are done with the invocation, your aura will be the exact shape of the demon. You may then close your eyes and chant the demon name over and over, or possibly the enn of that demon if known. You may rock back and forth, side to side, or in circles. Go with this. You will feel the tendrils of energy flow up your body and a foreign consciousness take over. When you open your eyes, look at the sigil and know that it is your signature. 

Repeat this process the next day, and the next, for the amount of time you listed in the invocation. During this time, you may practice automatic writing. 

Contrary to popular belief, true automatic writing isn’t just a bunch of scribbling, with a random word appearing here and there. True automatic writing is stilling your mind while the indwelling spirit writes through you. This takes time and practice, but is very potent in creating channeled texts or pathworkings. 

Back to the subject at hand, your personality will be forever changed by the true invocation, to align more with the nature of the demon, therefore, it is prudent to think deeply about the process before you do this. The demon will unlock hidden aspects of yourself, whether positive or negative, and an offering should be given to them on the day they leave your body. 

Sometimes, the demon will completely change the course of your working to suite their own agenda, that is the price you pay in inviting them into your body, but this is rare. In most cases, things will go as planned and you will gain what you seek from the demonic invocation so long as you remain respectful throughout the process. I hope this little article helps those who are just starting out or having issues in their invocation practice. Ave Satanas! Hail Lilith! 

Automatic Drawing

That’s right. Automatic drawing. Not writing, drawing. Unlike my cohorts on this blog, I am not a writer but an artist. My writing skills are very basic at best. I’m sure many of you are in the same boat. Drawing is your strong point. So, this submission from me will be aimed at drawing for all you artists out there. Actually, this will work with non-artists also. I apologize in advance that this is such a short entry but I think it’s worth adding this month and it has been very successful and interesting when I have tried this with friends.

I’m sure most of you have heard of and maybe even tried automatic writing. Well, we are going to do something similar except we will be drawing. First, you need to decide who your attention is going to be focused on. A demon, a deceased relative (or friend) or spirit of your choice, it’s up to you. For this example, lets choose a deceased grandparent, Grandpa Joe.
We want a quiet area to be in. Maybe a table in a darkened room would suit us. Get a candle (I suggest one of a calming color), paper, pencil or pen and a photo of the person you are trying to contact. In this case, Grandpa Joe. If you were trying to use a Demon, use their sigil instead of the photo. Now, we want the room dark, the candle lit and no distractions. Spend a few minutes performing some relaxing breaths. Stare at the photo and get the image in your mind. Think of Grandpa Joe. Remember things you did with him. We want to make a connection with him. Focus on just him. Invite him in to control your pen/pencil. If you are doing this with a Demon, chant their enn as you invite them to join you. Take your pen and start drawing shapes. Try not to lift your hand. Keep your concentration on Grandpa Joe, not your pen. Don’t think about the flower (or whatever) that is taking shape, just keep focusing on your connection. Don’t try to analyze your drawing. Doing that will bring you out of your trance and you won’t be able to hold a connection. You want to stay in that meditative state. Let Grandpa Joe move your pen. You don’t need to think about the pen, just Grandpa Joe. You can ask a single question beforehand if you like or just let things happen as they will.


I have to confess, I’ve only tried this with the Demonic and not the dead but the technique is the same. Make your connection, keep your connection and let the images flow to your pencil/pen and paper. The better you are at meditation, the easier this will be. As with any technique, the more you practice, the better the results. It is interesting to do this with others and compare drawings afterwards.


For some of you advanced artists out there, try using smoke as your drawing tool. You will definitely get some interesting images that way as long as you don’t set your room on fire.


Even if you don’t consider yourself an artist, give it a try. It’s a good exercise for channeling. If you are afraid of channeling, automatic writing, Ouija boards, etc. then you probably want to skip this. In fact, you probably shouldn’t even be on this site. For the rest of you brave souls… Good luck!

September 2021 Tarotscope

Welcome back! 

Have the trees started changing colors where you are? It’s cold enough outside in the mornings that I now need to wear a light jacket. Only last week, dawn felt too hot to breathe. Summer passes by so fast.

I chose the Mystic Mondays Tarot for this month’s reading. I picked up this deck on a whim based on its packaging and images I found of several cards online. At first glance, I appreciated the deck for aesthetics alone. Its bright colors, geometric patterns, and use of silver foil edging really caught my eye. Yet the more I used Mystic Mondays, the more annoyed I became. I loved the deck’s slick, laminated feel, but the cards were so thick I could barely shuffle them as a group. (I’m not sure if I should blame their edging or my small hands, but I don’t struggle this much with other decks.)  More importantly, although I adore the cards from an artistic standpoint, some strip the Rider-Waite Smith imagery down to such sparse symbolism that the intended meaning is nearly lost. This minimalism might add another layer of difficulty for new readers, leading them to depend on the accompanying book. Admittedly, the booklet contains two pages for each card, with upright and reversed meanings. I often found myself pulling up the original imagery from memory as best I could and filling in the missing details to trigger my intuition. Not ideal at all. While I’ll probably keep trying with the Mystic Mondays Tarot, we did not click as well as I’d hoped.

Anyway, on with the Tarotscope.

Three of Wands – The Card for All Signs

Advice for All Signs – Three of Wands – Your hard work in recent days pays off, taking you one step closer to your goal. Don’t give up now, no matter how deep the water is. You’ll reach your desired shore eventually if you keep swimming. Just remember: it can be hard to judge how far you have come when you’re still struggling against the waves. Progress may seem slow at times but could surprise you from another perspective. Allow yourself to dream. Let the anticipation of success drive you forward. 

Left to Right: Aries – 8 of Cups Reversed, Taurus – 5 of Pentacles Reversed, Gemini – Knight of Swords Reversed, Cancer – Queen of Swords Reversed.

Aries – Eight of Cups Reversed – You would think it better to have too many choices rather than too few, right? Well, Aries, an abundance of options paralyzes you with indecision in September, confusing you with what to do next. Though part of you knows you can’t always find what you want in familiar territory, the rest of you worries about what may lurk over the horizon. You cannot avoid making these decisions forever. Some of these options may fade given time. 

Taurus – Five of Pentacles – Recent efforts exhausted your reserves, but take heart! This lean period nears its end, Taurus. This card suggests both physical and financial recovery this September. Try to slip away for a moment by yourself if you can and gather your thoughts. Now is the time to evaluate your money and investments. Plan for the future as your energy and resources rebuild.

Gemini – Knight of Swords Reversed – You figured out what you want — and you want it now. Impatience soars for you in September, Gemini. You’ve worked so hard it’s almost impossible to wait any longer for success. Just be careful. The desire to see things through quickly could lead to impulsive or reckless actions. Thinking things through will lead to fewer mistakes in the long run.

Cancer – Queen of Swords Reserved – You’re faced with a delicate balance between facts and feelings this month, Cancer. On one hand, September demands you examine issues with a clear head, without letting personal bias shadow the truth. On the other, this card cautions against relying on logic alone. If you act without regard to the emotions of others, you may seem cold, even cruel. The situation at hand requires your personal touch for resolution.

Left to Right: Leo – Justice, Virgo – 5 of Cups Reversed, Libra – Ace of Pentacles, Scorpio – The Tower.

Leo – Justice – Are you ready to present your case, Leo? With the Justice card in your sign, make sure to brush up on the laws of the land. Watch out for red tape and tricky regulations in September. If you do make a mistake, own up to it. Let your objective, fair outlook sway important outcomes. Keep cool! Now isn’t the time to let your heart rule your head.

Virgo – Five of Cups Reversed – Be proud, Virgo. You’ve made it through the long night. Now a new month dawns, bringing with it a surge of optimism and a chance for recovery. Let go of any lingering negativity. You can learn from this experience. Forgive yourself for the past. Recognize how much your cups contain.

Libra – Ace of Pentacles – September may bring an end to summer in the northern hemisphere, but the Ace of Pentacles advises planting the seeds of future financial harvests this month. Indeed, this period of prosperity and good fortune goes beyond monetary wealth. Be on the lookout for opportunities of all types during this time. Now is the chance to manifest what you want. You could make a serious impact on your world with focus.

Scorpio – The Tower – On your toes, Scorpio! With September, comes sudden and unavoidable change that strikes at the very foundation of your life. This upheaval may feel like a complete disaster at first, but you can rebuild better than before. Learn what you can from the fallout and salvage anything worth keeping.

Right to Left: Sagittarius – 5 of Swords Reversed, Capricorn – 4 of Wands, Aquarius – Hierophant Reversed, Pisces – Judgement.

Sagittarius – Five of Swords Reversed – Stressed out by recent conflict, Sagittarius? If you can’t reconcile with the other party, try forgiving them and forgetting the whole situation. Release any lingering resentment or need to be right. The only validation you need is your own. Besides — consider what you could gain from a truce!

Capricorn – Four of Wands – Your hard work comes to fruition this month, Capricorn. You built a solid foundation in previous weeks, and this stability allows you the freedom to have fun with those you love in September. Revel in your home and celebrate your family (blood or not). Both are the backbone of your success.

Aquarius – Hierophant Reversed – Some rules clearly act in our best interest, to keep us safe or healthy. Others feel more arbitrary — or, worse yet, were made only to benefit those in power. This month you question the reason behind certain regulations, and it leaves you eager to rebel, Aquarius. Challenging the status quo will put you through your paces too. Get ready to break the mold society has created for you.

Absolve yourself of past sins and keep working at your goals. Otherwise, the Judgment you feel will hold you back from ascending to the next level.
