Then, Virgo season inspires a discussion on imposter syndrome, self-sabotage, perfectionism, and fear of failure. I also chat about the ways Virgo energy prepares us for the medicine Libra invites us into. Next, I share an astrological forecast for the upcoming week, including a chat on Mercury Retrograde.

In this week's episode, I share a tarot reading for the collective that inspires a tangent on trusting your tarot pull even when the brain throws doubt at what came up. This week, the Knight of Pentacles is present for us, supported by the King. These two are encouraging us to move through the world in a more soul-centered way. Our lesson, the Ace of Swords, indicates we may experience “spicy opportunities” to engage with the brain in a way that is more supportive of our soul. Our anchor, the Queen of Pentacles, encourages us to engage in expert self-tending.

In this week's episode, I share a tarot reading for the collective that keeps us rooted in with what is most important to us. The Page of Pentacles is present for us, supported by the Seven of Wands. This duo reminds us to be cautious with the use of our fire, so that we can devote ourselves to our soul’s calling. Our lesson for the week is the Page of Wands, which may indicate a few challenges, or opportunities, to check in with how we’re utilizing our fire and how we’re engaging with Leo energy. Our anchor, the Four of Swords, reminds us that we can have a relationship with the brain without necessarily believing every single thing it tries to tell us. Overall, we’re invited to let our ego take a backseat and let passion and soul drive the car.
