Air Signs – Aquarius, Gemini, Libra
Queen of Pentacles + Knight of Pentacles rx + Queen of Wands
Air signs, some of you are a little too locked in right now. With Mercury still retrograde until the 11th, it’d be in your best interest to use the remaining days to balance your practical side with the part of your desires to be seen and heard. Not just by your loved ones, but by the community at large.
You’re so focused on the final result and not giving yourself space to create and adjust along the way. The key to your success is finding the sweet spot between the end result and staying adaptable.
Fire Signs – Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
Two of Pentacles rx + Six of Wands + Three of Swords
Remember June’s message, fire signs? It was about reassessing your priorities and figuring out what really deserves your energy. But it seems that check-in never really happened. Yes, you’ve had some wins, but is it worth it if you’re holding on by a prayer?
Take this month to prioritize your wellbeing. It’s time to really divest from the belief that your self-worth is tied solely to what you’re able to produce. Start honoring your limitations and give yourself permission to rest.
Water Signs – Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio
The Empress + Knight of Cups + Three of Swords (ten of swords popped out w/ Empress, King of Wands rx at bottom)
Water signs, you’ve been downplaying your emotional needs to make someone else comfortable. Maybe you’ve been told you’re too sensitive, so you’ve gotten accustomed to shrinking yourself to keep the peace. But in doing so, you’re chipping away at part of yourself that makes you uniquely you.
It might be time to accept that this person may not be capable of loving or supporting you the way you deserve, especially if it’s something you’ve expressed before. It’s a tough pill to swallow, but what’s the point of giving your energy to a relationship where you have to make yourself small?
Earth Signs – Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn
Two of Swords + Queen of Cups + Five of Wands
You’ve been teetering back and forth about whether or not you should confront an ongoing issue. It’s not that you’re afraid of confrontation — you just haven’t decided if it’s even worth your time. Especially if it’s work related, you keep wondering: will saying anything even make a difference?
First, be honest — your intuition is coming through clearly, you’re just choosing to ignore it. Second, your inaction is only causing your resentment to grow — at some point you’re going to blow. It’s better to process and speak on it now than let it simmer until you combust.
