Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) // Mind (Page of Swords)
You’ll find yourself easily caught up in rumination and circular thinking, unable to shake the story that plays over and over in your mind. Or you’ll notice that your mind is less disciplined than usual, meditation is more difficult or staying on task is scattered. Be curious about where your mind would rather go (what’s your mind trying to get you to notice?) and show self-compassion to its unruliness. If you are ready to make your mind work for you rather than you being a slave to it, big growth will happen. Take some time to be present and direct your mind towards the path you want. You will be amazed what falls away as the road opens.
Air Signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) // Harmony (10 of Cups)
Unlike your water sign neighbors, you’re about to enjoy a moment of alignment and emotional peace. Your actions are in sync with your values, your nervous system is less vigilant and your heart is in partnership with your mind. You’ve done the work and it’s paying off, so appreciate yourself for the effort it took to bring yourself to this place. Follow your intuition at this time, trust that your inner compass knows what is right for you. This is the time to follow the path you always wanted to take because the abundance in front of you allows you the space to do so. Thank your inner children for trusting you. Offer blessings to your sacred beings for their guidance. And trust that you do deserve to feel this fulfilled.
Earth Signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) // Silence (The Moon)
August is going to be a lot of you, looking at yourself. When you are reflecting, what do you notice? When you meet yourself in stillness, what do you feel? When you accept illusion, what does it tell you? During this moment, you may have a painful memory making a reappearance. Instead of shoving the fears back down, examine them in the pale moonlight and allow the moon to soften their effect on you. No longer allow these illusions to control you. Access your intuition and the messages coming in to break through the illusion and see beyond what is in front of you. You may feel more comfortable at night than in the daytime allow yourself to sink into the darkness to touch the sacredness of your soul and the life you came here to experience.
Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) // Politics (7 of Swords)
This card invites you into the world of manipulation and diplomacy. This card speaks of deceit and deception, but may also be a permission slip to you to use tact and guile. Keep your cards close to your chest, be more discerning than usual, let yourself know when you’re being played–and then respond strategically. There are advantages to be had when this card shows up. If you are the one being deceitful or get away with something, you are about to get caught so it is best to own up to it as the cover up will take more energy than it is worth. Deal with things head on this month and you will have a better outcome. It is time to pay the piper!
