Full Moon in Sagittarius Collective Tarot Reading 🌕✨ Flower of Cups, Two of Wands, Ace of Wands

This full moon in fiery, expansive, hopeful Sagittarius wants us to get rid of the myth that we’re behind in our own lives. It is impossible for your story to be anything other than yours. What if you allowed yourself to slow down and move at the pace of trust? What if taking your time is actually the thing that will lead you to where you most long to be? The Two of Wands encourages us not to move faster than our energy knows how to carry us.

The Flower (Queen) of Cups wants us to revel in the magic of our emotions, to let our intuition speak louder than the fear and anxiety our mind might throw at us. Can you embrace the ocean of feeling inside you as a gift rather than a burden? Can you start to let your tears, your joy, your quietest, wisest parts show you how you’re building something rather than falling apart?

The Ace of Wands offers us new beginnings, reminds us where we decided to point our arrow, assures that the mission is still very much alive. The fire in our hearts may take time to catch, but once that kindling turns into a steady flame, it will light the way forward every time we choose to return. We don’t have to rush towards it because it’s already ours.

May we keep saying yes to life without having to know exactly how it all will go. May we trust in the progress of our own unique, singular story. May we move at the gentle, steady pace of our hearts.

New Moon in Ta**us Collective Tarot Reading 🌙✨ The Hanging One, The Root of Stones, The Empress

Better late than never, and really, that’s the whole point. The Root of Stones (Knight of Pentacles) insists that we slow down, move at our own pace, and trust the rhythms of our body. Rushing only depletes us of the energy we need to see things through. Instead of piling pressure onto our backs, where can we let go? What will create more ease and help us to flow with whatever the timeline needs to be? We will get where we’re going either way. The invitation here is to go forth gently.

The Hanging One and The Empress offer bigger context for why moving slowly is so important right now. We are in a time of transition, waiting, not having all the answers, unsure of when we’ll really be ready for our next move. Can we let that be ok? Can we trust that when we’re ready, we will know, and we’ll be able to act from a place that’s more grounded and aligned rather than reactive? The Empress wants us to receive this rest, this nourishment, like it is our birthright, because it is. We get to feel good even in the midst of change. We get to savor the sweet moments.

May we meet ourselves where we need to be, welcoming the sacred pause, staying open to the love and support that is ready to flow our way.

Thank you to the sweet souls who joined me for our monthly virtual reiki circle last night 💖

During the session, I saw a heart bursting with rainbows streaming in all directions. It reminded me of this photo I took a few months ago in my healing space. No matter where we are in our journey, whether our heart is aching our overflowing, always remember there is no where love cannot reach.

Also, pulled the cutest, funniest little card for the group last night! May we allow ourselves the space to make our ethereal backpacks lighter, releasing what we can’t control, taking in what we’re able to receive.

Sending you so much love, friends. See you again soon 🌈✨

New Moon in Aries Collective Tarot Reading 🌙✨ Ace of Cups, Root of Wands, Strength

This supercharged, fiery moon in Aries wants us to move confidently, especially in areas where we may have been guarding our heart too much. The Root (Knight) of Wands encourages us to be our most authentic, unapologetic, badass selves. It reminds us of the power in owning who we are, being as loud, wild, and fully alive as possible. It’s fine if not everyone gets it. Being everyone’s cup of tea probably means the tea has been watered down. It’s time to come out strong and piping hot.

Because the Ace of Cups assures this is the best way to open ourselves up to more love. To be held as we are, cherished for exactly the weird, wondrous souls we were born to be, without shrinking or hiding any of it, that’s the most delicious love there is. But we have to be willing to say yes.

Strength reaffirms the message, encouraging our vulnerability even through the discomfort of being perceived. This is not the time to hold back how you feel. Find the most compassionate, balanced, honest way to express your truth. We are ready to breach the surface of the ocean and let ourselves be seen. What’s the boldest, bravest move you can make? Gather your courage and consider moving in that direction. Whatever the outcome, you will have learned and grown stronger through the process of believing in yourself enough to try.

May we honor the sacred fire burning within us by letting ourselves sparkle. May we trust in our boundaries to hold us even while daring to open our hearts wide. May we let love, for ourselves and each other, always lead the way.

Join me online for a boost of magic this season 🌼✨

When you book a virtual session—whether we’re working with tarot, reiki, or astrology—the energy of the session travels from my home to yours, filling every corner with tenderness and support. You get to process your emotions in a private setting, meditate or journal right after the session, or even take a nap. Getting to experience this kind of healing in your own space helps create a sense of grounding and softness that will linger long after the session is over.

Not sure which to choose?

💫 With astrology, we look at your unique birth chart to give us a clearer view of who you are, where you’ve been, and where you’re going. These non-predictive, intuitive readings are meant to help you embrace your wholeness, leading to greater self-understanding and acceptance of your strengths, opportunities for growth, and the path your soul longs to take.

🔮 In tarot, we turn to the cards for a gently supportive way of connecting you with your own inner wisdom, intuition, and guidance from Spirit. As we channel messages from your benevolent ancestors and spirit guides, the cards paint a picture that can help you feel more empowered and confident as you continue to make choices and move forward on your journey.

🌀 For reiki, we work on clearing your energy of anything you’re ready to let go and revitalizing your spirit to welcome in all you’re ready to receive. With benefits for the mind, body, and spirit, reiki can help with stress relief, chronic pain, and creating a deeper sense of peace and connection in all that we do.

If you could use some extra support, I would be so honored to work with you! Learn more at www.heronkind.com and book your session today 💖

Full Moon in Libra Collective Tarot Reading 🌕✨ Seven of Thunder, The Devil, Harvest of Stones

The Devil comes to us on this full moon like a loving, honest friend to say “Hey girl, knock it off.” What are we doing? Where have we insisted on keeping ourselves small out of fear, shame, old stories and projections about who we are and what we can be? Enough is enough. It’s time to cut the chain and shed the stuff that makes us sick. When you look at your own habits and patterns, where can you finally let go of something that has been holding you back from truly living your juiciest, fullest life? Find the balance between honoring where you’ve been and moving forward without looking back.

The Seven of Thunder (Swords) wants us to stop second-guessing, over-thinking, and judging ourselves in this process. It wants us to know that we are enough. At our essence, at our core, we have been and always will be enough. This isn’t about “fixing” or “changing” ourselves like we’re broken somehow. It is about remembering our inherent wholeness, owning our worth, and reclaiming the power of self-definition.

The Harvest of Stones (King of Pentacles) already knows you’re a boss. It reminds you to connect with your strongest ally, your greatest protector, the one who got you here despite whatever obstacles you may have faced. And that’s you, baby. Yes, with gratitude for all the help and support others gave along the way, but do not forget to honor yourself for how far you’ve come. It’s time to start living by the well of experience you’ve gained throughout your story and to know that you have everything you need within you to turn the page to the next chapter.

May we embrace the wisdom of our journey not as a burden, but as a gift. May we bring along what sets us free and leave the rest behind. May we know deep in our bones that our authentic, messy, divine selves are the real magic we need in the world.

The Full Moon in Libra on April 1—opposite the Sun and Saturn conjunct in Aries—wants us to embrace balance in our relationships rather than becoming overly self-reliant.

Aries is used to getting things done on their own, but part of the work with this sign is to recognize where independence becomes isolation.

It doesn’t make us weak to need each other. We can ask for support without becoming co-dependent. There is always room for collaboration and connection.

Square Jupiter in Cancer, we could find ourselves resisting the need to cocoon when we need to recharge. How can we listen to the wisdom of our bodies and put down what becomes too heavy to carry? Where can we allow ourselves to be nurtured?

Sextile Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius, we are called to reclaim our right to shine, to hold on to optimistic expectation, and to refuse to let our joy be stolen. Without bypassing or tuning out completely, where can we activate hope as a healing strategy? Can we make someone laugh? Can we refuse to give up the dreams of a brighter future?

Trine Pluto in Aquarius, there are some big opportunities to move through the pain and find something new and beautiful on the other side.

We are in this together, friends. May we forever recommit to being warriors for love. 🌕✨
