Cancer Full Moon on Christmas

2015 has been an interesting year, and we (almost) end it with a full moon on Christmas day (exciting!). I'm pretty stoked because the full moon will be in Cancer, my sister sign to Pisces (I have a BFF that's a Cancer!)

Full moon's are about making things happen, or, new beginnings. Signing the contract at work, finally buying that special something online you've been wanting, getting your certification in the mail. With the full moon in Cancer, there is a strong focus on close family/friends, and the home. You may finally decide what colour to paint the living room, order that new couch, or make that long awaited phone call to your mother, that you should have made months ago! Feeling warm and fuzzy with those we love could bring some very meaningful, or sentimental conversation to the Christmas table. On the flip side, you may want more solitude, and just staying at home cozied-up on the couch with your favourite Christmas movie, and hot chocolate, may just be what the doctor ordered.

The sun is in Capricorn which could bring some confusion to those sensitive water signs. Capricorn is career, the public eye, structure, and rules, which doesn't blend well with Cancer. Finding a balance between career and home life will be challenging, but very very necessary this holiday season!
Uranus in Aries could make this a very potent week for success, and manifesting that success! If you have big dreams around home/family life, and/or work life, now is the time to create that vision board, write an affirmation in your journal, and take the steps toward fulfilling those desires!

The Benefits of Tarot

When people approach me from a place of fear- fear about what the future might hold, I always explain how I use tarot. There will be no predictions, telling of futures, or gazing into crystal balls.

Sorry, but not sorry.

There are lots of benefits to tarot, and I think that’s something often overlooked- The benefits! What are they? Well, here’s a few to get your tarot-taste-buds tingling!

1. Gaining Clarity, & Truth: Whatever situation/issue/problem is going on right now, tarot will force you to look at it straight in the eyes! Uncomfortable? Good! The more you dive in, the more you’ll see. Tarot is a fabulous way to look at your life from a bird's-eye-view. Sometimes JUST doing that adds clarity, or a new perspective. Finding the truth in your situation, or the real truth about you, and your actions, is just an added bonus! The more clarity you gain, the more likely you are to leave feeling empowered, and ready to take life by the horns!
2. Make Better Decisions: People often want to ask me, “what should I do?!” And inside I think, ‘yes. What should YOU do?’ When someone is feeling totally lost for options, tarot often gives one (if not more) possibilities, that the querent didn’t think of before. Again, this is empowering! You have the answers within you, I just help you open the treasure chest to see the wonders and possibilities you already possess! Once the querent has a couple options, it makes decision making much faster, and easier. It’s like standing in the shampoo/soap isle at the grocery store. SO MANY freakin’ options!! All of them may look great (or maybe none). Tarot says, “here’s 1-3 options. Which one suits you best? Let’s try that one first!”
3. Finding Peace: Sometimes people get in the way of themselves. They put up a wall, and pin their worries, doubts, fears, anxieties, and burdens on it in a disorganized way. Ultimately, their thoughts are creating a block, and there is no way out. Tarot breaks down that wall, and Shows you your situation. There is something very peaceful in hearing your issue(s) said back to you by an unbiased person. It validates what you are already feeling, and know. It allows the quarant to say, “yes. I do feel depressed. I do feel sad”, and by having the emotion on the outside of themselves for once, they get a moment of peace. A moment of clarity to see the problem, and move past it.
4. Improve Your Life: I use tarot as my own personal life coach, and approach other people’s readings the same way. It can show you key areas of your life to work on, or be more aware of. Your relationships may improve due to having more awareness of how you interact, or treat other people. If something unpleasant comes up, you have the power to change it. The future is not written in stone! Tarot gives you the opportunity to be more aware, prepare, and take control of your life again!

Weekly Draw- 6 of Pentacles

Weekly Draw- 6 of Pentacles

To sum up this card in 3 words, it represents: giving, receiving, and balance.

A wealthy man hands out coins to the less fortunate, while holding scales in the other hand.

If you have the resources, or “know-how” to share with others, then do it! Know someone that could help you out? Be open to receive, and be thankful for that help.

It’s important to find balance when it comes to money. This week may be a good time to reassess that budget (or make one if you haven't already!). Learn where you can be generous with your finances, and where money’s tight.

If you find yourself well balanced already (when it comes to money and your resources), look into different ways you can help someone out. Charity is a good place to start, but perhaps a family member is struggling, or someone at the coffee shop is $2.00 short- throw a little “pay-it-forward” attitude to someone in need!

When it comes to relationships- who is the giver, and who is the receiver? Is there balance in that department? One person can’t go to work, clean the house, AND cook the meals, while the other lays on the couch all day. Look at how much both of you are doing and if it’s not 50/50, create a chore chart, or schedule when chores need to get done and who is going to complete it.

Especially if you have kids- get them, AND your partner involved. Share the workload, get organized, and when the work is done, show each other some gratitude.

As a side note: With fiery Mars in Libra (until January 3rd 2016) try to avoid fighting about money/budgeting with your partner, or lashing out at a family member for not doing chores. Libra is the sign of balance. SO, especially this week, keep balance in mind when speaking!

Affirmation for the week: “Financial abundance comes to me easily, lovingly, and generously, as I easily, lovingly, and generously offer my unique gifts!”
