“The Universe buries strange jewels deep within us all. The hunt to uncover those jewels—that’s creative living—that’s what separates a mundane existence from a more enchanted one.” Golden words by Elizabeth Gilbert to contemplate as you prepare for the upcoming Wolf Moon. As a sacred ritual to honor this lunation, embark upon that metaphorical journey within and activate your sacred gifts. Just a reminder: you didn’t come here to dim your light, Aquarius. You came here to live an expanded life. Capricorn, you’re experiencing a burning desire to grow, to heal, to transform and to shed the old skin. So, shed the old skin. Recognize what no longer serves your highest and greatest good, whether it’s a place, a person, a situation or an internalized belief about yourself. Overheard at the cosmic conference: it’s time to unleash your highest potential. Leo, there’s nothing in the external world that’s limiting your growth. The only opponents you need to be afraid of right now are your inner demons. The voices in your head that tell you you’re not good enough; that you don’t deserve to get ahead. Journal prompt: what internalized belief do you need to let go of in order to show up in the big, bad world as your higher self?
So, what does the week ahead have in store for the rest of the signs? Let’s explore!
Aries
You’ve seen it all, Aries: the highs, the lows, and everything in between. You understand that nothing bad ever really happens. That every experience is perfect and divinely guided. Instead of focusing on what’s awry, focus on transmuting your pain into power. Recognize the lessons that need to be integrated so you can level up and unleash your highest potential. Know that the universe is holding space for you to blossom and come home to yourself, beautiful.
Taurus
Healing your ancestry, your familial ties, is showing up as a big theme for you right now. So, sit down with the pain and transmute it into power. Revisit the people and places that remind you of your true potential; the gifts you carry within your soul. On a lighter note, if you feel called to get the crew together, plan a gathering or a holiday ASAP! Venusians who’ve been prioritizing their creative journey are in for a multitude of surprises! Pro tip: Visualize yourself as a vessel for the Divine Consciousness to express itself so magic can birthed through you in the physical.
Gemini
Capricorn season has you feeling rather reclusive. You want to spend time indoors and you want to spend time on your own. Now is a good time to focus on meditation and mindfulness. To turn your gaze inwards and reflect upon the year gone by. Word of warning: there’s a difference between solitude and isolation, though. Be gentle with those who are close to your heart. You don’t want the people you love to feel like you’re icing them out.
Cancer
Right now, you’re feeling this tension. This tension between who you truly are and who you are supposed to be. Cancer, do yourself a favor and accept. Accept what your internal landscape is revealing to you at this moment. As you do, let go of the inner resistance. You deserve to shine, beautiful. You deserve to share your sacred gifts in ways that are divinely ordained. As such, you’ll find that your inner fire has also been awakened for all the right reasons. Daily meditation: visualize yourself as a vessel for the creative consciousness to express its magic in the earthly realm.
Leo
There’s nothing in the external world that’s limiting your growth, Leo. The only opponents you need to be afraid of right now are your inner demons. The voices in your head that tell you you’re not good enough; that you don’t deserve to get ahead. The new moon later this week, which is incidentally also referred to as the Wolf Moon, is activating the portal of your personal power and rendering you with the courage required to shift your reality *and* your perspective. Journal prompt: what internalized belief do you need to let go of in order to show up in the big, bad world as your higher self?
Virgo
Get used to things working out in your favor! Get used to visualizing the best possible outcome! Get used to witnessing miracles and watching your dreams come true in the most unexpected manner. Virgo, the forces are with you this month and are working overtime to help you co-create your best reality. As such, you’ll find that your spiritual/intuitive side is also activated. That you’re receiving divine downloads with clarity as you deepen your connection with Spirit. Remember to maintain a journal so you can record your revelations and learnings.
Libra
The start of 2024 is bringing a delicious romance with it, Libra. The kind that only gets written about in books. So, prepare to be swept off your feet and in the most magical way. If you’ve been thinking about eloping with your amour, now is the time to indulge in the given fantasy, wild one. Word of warning: the ickiness and stickiness of the past has a way of catching up with us unexpectedly. Beware of the old fears that tell you you’re not good enough or that you don’t deserve to be loved as you are. Start by accepting yourself fully, flaws and all, and watch how your outer reality transforms with you.
Scorpio
Turn your gaze inwards, Scorpio. Move into a space of awareness and recognize how your need for external validation is getting the better of you. Remember, this is your journey and only you know what supports your highest and greatest good. So, do yourself a favor and drop the weight of other people’s expectations. This chapter of your life is about coming undone as a sacred ritual to embrace your true potential. Here comes the real question: what are the intentions you are setting for yourself in this new moon cycle?
Sagittarius
But, what are you affirming, Sagittarius? What are you continually giving your attention to? Remember, every thought, word and intention is charged with energy, which in turn is shaping your reality. So, do yourself a favor: speak with positivity and speak with grace. Speak as if what you are asking for has already manifested. As a daily ritual, imagine your words to be spells that are inviting miracles into your existence.
Capricorn
This month, you’re experiencing a burning desire to grow, to heal, to transform and to shed the old skin. So, shed the old skin, Capricorn. Recognize what no longer serves your highest and greatest good, whether it’s a place, a person, a situation or an internalized belief about yourself. The new moon in your sign later this week, which is also called the Wolf Moon, is awakening you to your power and potential so you can create the life you truly desire. This brings us to the real question: how do you feel called to write a brand new story for yourself?
Aquarius
“The Universe buries strange jewels deep within us all. The hunt to uncover those jewels—that’s creative living—that’s what separates a mundane existence from a more enchanted one.” Golden words by Elizabeth Gilbert to contemplate as you prepare for the upcoming Wolf Moon. As a sacred ritual to honor this lunation, embark upon that metaphorical journey within, and activate your sacred gifts. Just a reminder: you didn’t come here to dim your light, Aquarius. You came here to live an expanded life and experience joy, pleasure and freedom in every form.
Pisces
Food for thought, Pisces: is the grass *really* greener on the other side or is your perception coloring your reality? Today, the cards want you to know that you are where you are because that’s what’s divinely ordained. So, take a moment to express gratitude for both the highs and the lows, the blessings and the challenges. At the same time, observe the need to accelerate the evolution process and/or resort to quick fixes in order to get to a desired destination. Choosing to move mindfully and acting ethically is recommended for it will bring in long-term rewards.
