February Tarotscopes

I’ve lit a candle, sipped my tea, and pulled a card for each of you. Read on to find out what’s in store for February.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Ace of Air

The Ace brings birth, potential, and the gift of grace. It’s energy is like that of a new moon or a butterfly emerging on a spring day. The seed of possibility is in your hands now. No longer are you wrapped up in a cocoon, waiting for the moment to begin something new. You’re blossoming with new ideas and thoughts - let them take flight! If you find yourself hesitant about a metamorphosis and would rather stay snuggled in your chrysalis, remember that now is your time and there’s nothing to be afraid of. Find within yourself the strength to use your wings.

Affirmation: I am blossoming with new ideas.

Action: Is there something you want to change? A transformation that needs to happen or something you want to bring to life? Check in with your intuition, especially if your mind and heart are at odds. Take a few moments to meditate and journal your thoughts. What is emerging and blossoming? Follow your heart.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Five of Earth

A life lesson is at play here. Negative thoughts and worries might keep you up at night, clouding your trust in yourself. Whatever challenge comes your way this month, know that you have the wisdom and strength to survive it. Life lessons are often unexpected and uncomfortable, but they can lead to personal and spiritual growth.

Affirmation: I have the skills it takes to survive any crisis.

Action: Create a sacred, safe space to go to when negative thoughts arise and challenges come your way. Light a candle, say a prayer, do whatever calms your soul and helps you move through the conflict.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Awakening (Judgement)

Spirit is calling you to open your heart and live in a more meaningful way. There is sacred space around you now and a community that supports you. You have everything you need to make magic happen. Listen to Spirit, reach out to those around you, heal and be healed. If you find yourself resistant to this awakening and your duty to serve, remember the quote by Anais Nin: “The day may come when the risk to remain tight in a bud is more painful that the risk it takes to blossom.”

Affirmation: I awaken to the call of the Spirit.

Action: Practice mindfulness for a full day. Use your senses to relish each moment. Slow down when you eat, smell and taste the food, notice the sounds around you, notice how things feel and look. Keep your mind in the here and now. How does it alter your day?

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Six of Fire

Celebrate yourself this month. Afterall, it is the month of l-o-v-e. Right now, your energy is rising with others to create magic, healing, and transformation. Play your own music, dance your own dance, and let the energy from your unique contributions fuel those around you.

Affirmation: I celebrate myself and my tribe.

Action: Embrace self-love. How can you show yourself more love this month? Maybe write yourself a love letter, treat yourself to fresh flowers, and list five things you truly dig about yourself.

Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Elder of Earth

The Elder of Earth reminds you that there is much wisdom and pleasure in a simple life and urges you to grow your relationship with the land, family, friends, and your community. Put aside wants for luxury possessions and the need for approval. Your wealth and what you own does not prove your worth. This Elder shows you the contentment of recognizing what comprises true value and worth.

Affirmation: I spin a prosperous and abundant life for myself and those I love.

Action: Everything you own was once something you wanted. Take stock of your possessions. Learn to love what you have. Make a gratitude list each day of five things you are truly thankful for.

Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Three of Water

Can you tell these little otters are having the best time of their lives? They’re carefree, happy, maybe even a little mischievous. That’s you this month! It’s your time to shine, to share love and joy. You’re feeling full of abundance and happiness and want to have fun. Gather your friends and family and have fun together! Your happiness is contagious, so the more you give the more joy grows.

Affirmation: I find joy in the company of others.

Action: Pick a day to gather a group of friends and do something fun together.

Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Child of Water

You’re feeling tender-hearted and dreamy. You might get lost in your imagination this month or find yourself attracted to a new spiritual path or way of thinking. Go with it and embrace your emotions, dreams, and imagination. If you find yourself disappointed by a lost dream, seek someone to talk to and move into a place of healing. Doing so will make way for new dreams.

Affirmation: I imagine a life filled with love, art, and spirituality.

Action: Get artsy with your emotions. Dance when you feel moved to, paint, or write a poem.

Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Elder of Air

This is a time for making decisions and experiencing communion with Spirit. These decisions will likely have to do with what you can offer the world and how you can be an instrument of peace. Keep Frederick Buechner’s words in mind: “Vocation is the place where your deep gladness meets the world’s deep need.” Worship, praise, meditate, and you’ll be guided. The Elder of Air offers you the gift of inspiration, balance, and clarity. Use them wisely.

Affirmation: I am a song of peace and healing for the world.

Action: Music can help us access deep wisdom. Go to your sacred space, put on whatever song stirs your heart at the moment, and soak it in. What insights come to you?

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Nine of Fire

Like the man in the illustration, it’s time to seek solitude and replenish your life-force. Now’s a good time to start or continue a meditation practice. It will help you continue to feel confident and at peace with yourself. Right now, your personal power is radiant, and you’re able to handle anything that comes your way with calm equanimity.

Affirmation: I am a being of light and fire, as well as flesh and bone.

Action: Go into meditation and feel your inner fire rise from earth to heaven. See yourself as a being of light as well as a being of flesh, blood, and bone.

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Guardian of Air

This Guardian brings clarity to every situation, giving you the ability to see straight through to the core of things. Cut away everything that’s extraneous until you get to the truth of a matter. Now is not the time to shrink from making hard decisions. Be bold and speak your truth.

Affirmation: I declare my own truth with candor and clarity.

Action: What’s becoming crystal clear to you about your life? Take a moment to journal about it.

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Five of Fire

There’s a fire burning inside you and you’re tempted to let it out by venting your rage. You may feel short-tempered and easily set off, not mindful of who might get burned. This rage and anger might be a mask for what you fear. What’s causing you to harden? What’s bringing up feelings of resentment and fear? You have the choice to let your circumstances soften you and make you kinder.

Affirmation: I courageously face my fears.

Action: Be careful about burning bridges you might need to walk over later. If you feel the fire rising inside you, take a moment to yourself. Breathe. How can you transform this anger or fear? Choose love.

Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Eight of Air

You’re being called to transform your vision into reality with help from your friends. Sure, you might feel like you can get the job done yourself, but there is great reward when you co-create. Give attention to your friends’ ideas. “Never doubt the ability of a small group of concerned citizens to change the world.” -Margaret Mead

Affirmation: We see it, so be it!

Action: Gather a circle of friends to share ideas about a project.
