Virgo Sun and Pisces Moon – it’s a Five of Cups day – UGGGHH!

It’s a King of Wands Day – take the challenge and rise above yourself to be a leader of men
With the sun in Leo (leadership) and the moon in Sagittarius (adventurous philanthropic pursuits), today is a King of Wands day. In the King of Wands, we meet first-hand astrological fire symbolising the human imagination in its most dynamic aspect.

It’s a Two of Swords Day – time for a ‘sick headache’
With the sun in Leo (creative self-expression) and the moon in Libra (balance and compromise), today is a Two of Swords day. On a divinatory level, the Two of Swords implies a tense state where we’ve closed our eyes to life’s problems rather than trying to sort them out. Interestingly, the information and motivation needed […]
