Weekly Forecast Monday May 25th, 2020

Monday 5/25 – Black Panther Reversed  – You may find yourself confronted with circumstances today that leave you feeling uncertain. Rather than resisting the unknown or trying to force the situation into one direction or another simply to feel a sense of control, embrace the possibility that is held in this moment. Stay curious and open to all outcomes, even and maybe especially the ones you haven’t even been able to imagine yet. If you can channel a sense of adventure and playfulness, you might even find yourself enjoying the process of allowing the mystery to unfold in its own time. 

Tuesday 5/26 – Lynx Reversed - If you have a strong intuitive sense about someone around you today, pause before sharing that with anyone else. Even if you feel compelled to tell the person about your vision or premonition, it’s important to remember that not only may they not be ready to hear that information, it might not be meant for them either. In most cases, we come to our own awareness and understandings about things in our time and not a moment sooner. Focus instead on what messages you can draw from the guidance you’ve received. What does it trigger in you? What does it remind you of? Your subtle senses are trying to tell you something, and your job is to uncover what that is for yourself, not for anyone else.

Wednesday 5/27 – Raccoon – Make a point of looking for ways to support those in your community today, whether that’s by offering your time, energy, or resources that you have an abundance of. Maybe that means helping someone with a task they’re struggling to take care of on their own. Perhaps that looks like connecting someone with people or opportunities that can help them move closer to their dreams. It could even be as simple as just listening deeply to someone and reminding them that their experiences are valid and that their presence is appreciated. Whatever you do, make sure that you are finding ways to shore up those around you, because the world needs more people who are standing in their power and using their gifts for good.

Thursday 5/28 – Bear Reversed  – It’s time to get out of your head and back into action today. While introspection is an important practice in self-development, it doesn’t do anyone very much good if we aren’t embodying the shifts that we envision for ourselves. Decide what it is you wish to create in your time here and get to work! You may never feel fully ready to do the things that both scare you and light you up all at once, but don’t let that stop you. Life is short and time waits for no one. 

Friday 5/29 – Alligator – All of our life experiences mean nothing if we don’t take the time to glean wisdom and grow from them. As we move from spring into summer, there’s no better time to review the lessons of the season we’re preparing to leave behind. What hardships or losses do you need to grieve? What successes deserve to be celebrated? What insights can you take from all that you’ve navigated up until now? Whether you do it through therapy, through writing/journaling, or through sharing with a trusted friend, taking time to process and integrate the lessons from recent weeks and months will only support your ability to move gracefully through all that’s yet to come. Give yourself that gift. 

Saturday 5/30 – Armadillo Reversed – Boundaries are such a big topic in the personal development and healing world and for good reason. Our relationship to boundaries sets the tone for so many aspects of our lives and this includes how we set and honor boundaries with ourselves as much as how we set and honor boundaries in relationships with others. Rigid boundaries can make us inaccessible and limit our ability to develop intimacy and connection with others, while overly soft or non-existent boundaries leave us open to being taken advantage of or devalued. The goal is to find that happy, healthy middle ground in which we can love others without compromising our ability to be loving towards ourselves.

Sunday 5/31 – Salmon – Trust that call that is coming from deep within you today. Even if it doesn’t make logical sense, the heart has a way of knowing what will most support our health and happiness, so listen to it. The more you follow the thread of the things that light you up and spark curiosity or joy, the more you’ll see that these things are not random, but are, in fact, deeply connected to your purpose on this planet at this particular time in history.

Weekly Forecast Monday May 11th, 2020

Monday 5/11 – Raven Reversed  – Keep your eyes and maybe more importantly your heart open to magic today. Pay special attention to synchronicities and ways in which either Spirit or your higher self are trying to speak to you. You guides can send you signs and support all day every day, but whether or not you receive and take them to heart is up to you. 

Tuesday 5/12 – Raccoon Reversed - None of us accomplish anything great completely on our own. There is always a community of cheerleaders and supporters, however small, behind every success. Today, look around you and see who could use a helping hand. Is there someone you know that might benefit from a little encouragement or generosity? If so, share what you can, just make sure that the help you give serves to empower the recipient rather than reinforce any stories about victimhood. If you’re the one in need of support, don’t be afraid to reach out to the people in your life. We walk each other home by taking turns being on each side of the equation; so, figure out where you’re at today and trust that whether your giving or receiving, the energy will come back full circle in the right time. 

Wednesday 5/13 – Owl Reversed – Trust your gut. Always. But especially today. If something feels off, it is. That doesn't have to mean that something nefarious is going on, but know that those pings telling you that this particular situation isn’t for you aren’t steering you wrong. There’s more to the situation at hand than you’re currently seeing so either put any forward movement on pause or at least dig in and ask all of the questions that you need to get clarity and peace of mind. If things are still not feeling quite right, consider exiting gracefully. No need to explain yourself. You always have the right to let someone know that something “doesn’t feel like a right fit at this time” and leave it at that.

Thursday 5/14 – Mountain Lion Reversed  – Today, Mountain Lion asks us to sit with our relationship to leadership. We all have a gift to share with the world and leadership is having the ability to step boldly into your power so that you may live out that purpose. If this is something that comes as a challenge for you, ask yourself why. Are you projecting something from your past onto an imagined future? What magic would you create in the world if you weren’t afraid of or in judgement around shining brightly? If you consider yourself to be a leader, you might take some time asking yourself about your leadership style and how you can operate more from a place of service and less from a place of ego. Don’t be afraid to face your own weaknesses. All truly great leaders not only own up to their shortcomings, but find ways to use them for growth, both their own and that of others.

Friday 5/15 – Blue Heron Reversed – Last week kicked off with a message about getting out of our heads and into our bodies and it seems that that’s the call once again. Self-reflection is a wonderful thing, but it’s important that we balance it with moments of embodied presence. Movement can bring us back. Intentional connection with others can be a route. And good, old-fashioned silliness is a surefire way to turn the volume down on the mind chatter and up on what matters most in this moment. Find what works for you and, even if it’s only for a few moments, allow yourself to just be.

Saturday 5/16 – Spider Reversed – When we block our creative and expressive energies, they need to find some sort of outlet and one of the most common ways they end up showing up is in frustration or jealousy. If you find that either of those experiences are cropping up today, take that as a sign that you need to let move some energy up and out. Sing. Paint. Dance. Write. Scream into a pillow if you need to. Just whatever you do, don't leave that stuff bottled up. 

Sunday 5/17 – Grouse Reversed – Being in a body can be a mixed bag sometimes. Intense experiences of pleasure sit in contrast to equally intense experiences of pain. Because the latter can be so much more jarring, sometimes we focus on that end of the spectrum, but today we are being asked to find ways of connecting with the joys of this physical experience. What senses do you derive the most joy from? Sight? Smell? Sound? Touch? Taste? Mindfully tune into the gifts that you receive from those experiences and let yourself revel in gratitude for the opportunity to live in your unique body. It won’t make the pains of this life disappear, but it will certainly make them so much easier to navigate.

Weekly Forecast Monday May 4th, 2020

Monday 5/4 – Blue Heron Reversed  – Yes, self-reflection is a wonderful practice, but as with all things, balance is important. Take some time today to get out of your head and into your body. Paint with your fingers. Dance. Lie down in a patch of grass and feel the warmth of the sun on your skin. Grounding through our sensory experience is a powerful way to release mental tension and to be present with some of the most simple gifts and pleasures that this life has to offer. 

Tuesday 5/5 – Owl - Listen very closely today. Things may not be entirely as they seem at first glance, so it’s important to engage all of your senses today, especially your more subtle sense and intuitive capacities. Don’t just pay attention to what people say, but notice how you feel when they’re speaking and if there seem to be layers of meaning that differ from or contradict the words that are being spoken. This is also a good day to get curious about your own blindspots. We all have them and the biggest clue to where they can be found is in the things that trigger us into fear or anger. Gently work your way into what’s underneath these big initial reactions and see if there is an opportunity to become more honest and intimate with your own heart.

Wednesday 5/6 – Armadillo – Boundary work is the work that never ends. There is always more to explore within how we both set boundaries with ourselves and with others because these practices shift and evolve as frequently as our own needs and environments do! Check in today and ask yourself if you honor the limits you set for yourself, and if not, what is underneath your tendency to push past your own boundaries? How is this reflected in your relationships with others? The goal is not to shame yourself for any missteps you’ve made, but rather to uncover ways to meet your needs that are healthy for you while also honoring the boundaries of others. 

Thursday 5/7 – Coyote Reversed  – It can seem so truly challenging to claim joy within moments of despair or to laugh when we feel like the world is weighing heavily on our shoulders, but those are the exact moments that a bit of lightness is needed most. Not to deny the harder aspects of life, but rather to embrace them fully with an awareness that everything in this life is ultimately fleeting. If you must cry, then do so. But no one said you can’t dance at the same time.

Friday 5/8 – Rabbit – Fear is normal and healthy, despite many cultural messages that tell us we should be fearless always. Without fear, we wouldn’t be cautious while standing on the edge of a cliff or exercise discernment when deciding whether or not to take a big professional risk. Rather than treating fear like an enemy, see if you can honor it as a messenger. This doesn’t mean to let your fear run the show, but instead simply find out what it’s trying to protect you from and what supports you might be able to put in place in order to move forward gently and gracefully, even if the fear remains.  

Saturday 5/9 – Elk– It’s time to reassess your approach to that challenge you’ve been navigating or gearing up for. Treat it like a marathon rather than sprint and put supports (material or mental/emotional) in place so that you can stay healthy and sane for the long haul. If the issue resolves more quickly than you anticipated, then you’ll have energy to spare, but if you end up needing to stay in the game for extended amounts of time, you’ll be more more likely to finish strong if you start pacing yourself now. 

Sunday 5/10 – Beaver – We’re closing out the weekend with a message from Beaver encouraging us to do the patchwork. In our homes. Within our bodies. And if nothing else, then in our mindsets. Where are the energy leaks? What places, both physical and spiritual, can you a little TLC or maybe an upgrade or repair? Whether this looks like digging into the home project that makes your nest a little cozy or getting clear about what beliefs are no longer serving you and releasing them however you can, roll up your sleeves today and make your spaces, both inner and outer, as nourishing as possible.

Weekly Forecast Monday April 13th, 2020

Monday 4/13 – Coyote  – Yes, the world is feeling completely topsy-turvy right now and the air is thick with fear and grief, but that does not mean that we cannot also laugh in the midst of it all. In fact, laughter may be the very medicine that is needed most today. This isn’t about minimizing the pain that exists, but rather surrendering to it as part of the human experience and allowing ourselves an opportunity to release the tension that has been building up in our bodies and spirits. Call a friend who always knows how to get a chuckle out of you. Watch a funny movie. Do something truly ridiculous just to help lighten your mood. All the real world issues will still be waiting there for you when you’re ready to meet them again. But at least this way you can do so with a heart that is just a bit lighter. 

Tuesday 4/14 – Porcupine - Give extra attention to your relationships today and find ways to connect with your loved ones, near or far.. Check in on people that you know might need a little extra support right now or, if you find that you’ve been struggling, let your people know that you could use some love and tenderness right now. These gestures can feel a bit vulnerable, especially if you’re not used to being the one to reach out, but opening ourselves up to give and receive love is one of the bravest things we can do in the life and the rewards are absolutely worth the risks. 

Wednesday 4/15 – Turtle Reversed – The message for today is simple: Ground. Connect with Nature. If not the nature “out there”, then the nature that lives and breathes through your own being. Lie on the ground. Work with your breath. Let the sun fall on your skin. Open a window or take a walk outside and breathe in the fresh air. Tuning into these natural rhythms, which are echoed all throughout the universe, helps remind us that we are part of a much bigger picture, that while the human world is in upheaval, nature is still moving at the same pace it always has, and that harmonizing with that frequency has the potential to offer immense healing, both for individuals and the collective. 

Thursday 4/16 – Mouse  – Mouse medicine is all about the details and practicing discernment. Be very observant today, particularly if you are trying to make a decision. Continue gathering information until you feel you understand all the nuances of the situation at hand. This is not a time for sudden, bold moves, but instead for staying curious, trusting your gut, and making choices that support simplicity and alignment.

Friday 4/17 – Salmon  – You may not feel like a wild creature most of the time, but you still have the gift of deep instinctual knowing, of subtle senses and intuitive capacities, and of an inner wisdom that can serve as a compass for you always. The call today is to listen closely to the messages you receive and to heed the calls of your heart and spirit. No matter how illogical their guidance may seem, trust that by following the things that light you up, you will always land in the very place you are meant to be. 

Saturday 4/18 – Elk Reversed  – It can be tempting to try to push through, but Elk is here to remind us that this journey is a marathon, not a sprint, so it’s vital that we pace ourselves. This can apply to both physical and emotional habits and the key here is to ask ourselves if how we are living would feel sustainable for a month, 3 months, a year, and so on. Sure there will be moments in our lives when we have to dig deep and put mind over matter, but when we make that a way of life, we set ourselves up for a very big crash. Take some time today to do an honest inventory of your lifestyle and put a plan in place that allows you to care for yourself for the long haul. 

Sunday 4/19 – Wild Boar – Confrontation is the name of the game today but that doesn’t mean you need to come out with guns ablazing. Instead, get clear about what is coming up for you, find a way to express your needs in a way that doesn’t involve shaming or blaming, and then share that truth as compassionately as possible. This will help minimize the possibility of resentment and major blow-ups and may even pave the way for deeper, more attuned connections. Oh, and you can do this process with yourself as well, because sometimes the person we need to get really honest with is the one we’re gazing at in themirror.

Weekly Forecast Monday March 16th, 2020

Monday 3/16 – Opossum  – As the week kicks off Opossum reminds us to stay grounded and connected to our own center, despite any commotion that may be happening around us. It is particularly important to work on protecting our own energy today if we find ourselves engaged with people who seem to be riled up and looking to get others to jump on their wagon. Instead, tune into your breath, a calming visualization, or a mantra that reminds you of who you wish to be from moment to moment. The world can can be a chaotic place sometimes but you can always choose to cultivate and tap into a deep well of inner calm.

Tuesday 3/17 – Weasel - The call to be mindful of our energies fields continues today with Weasel encouraging us to be a bit more discreet as we move through the world. It’s particularly interesting that this card would appear at a time when a pandemic is sweeping the globe and “social distancing” is becoming a vital strategy for minimizing the impacts of the Coronavirus on communities all over the world. This isn’t about being cagey or paranoid but simply moving through public spaces mindfully and gently. If you are able to be out and about in your community today, do your best to take care of your business with as little social engagement as possible. You can hold an intention that your presence remains neutral and doesn’t create shift in the environment around you. This is an invaluable to skill to have in moments when you want to move through social settings without stirring up too much attention and there’s no better time to practice than right now!

Wednesday 3/18 – Jaguar – As we move into the middle of the week, Jaguar asks us to check in with our values and to ask ourselves if we are actively living them in our daily lives. This isn’t about striving for perfection or being harsh or judgmental towards ourselves, but rather an opportunity to find ways where we can create lives that are more authentic and nourishing, because ultimately, our hearts are most at peace when we know we are living honestly. Where can you be better about walking your talk? What shifts can you make, big or small, to step more fully into being the type of person you would like to be? Sit with the answers to those questions and then go work on making yourself proud for all the right reasons.

Thursday 3/19 – Wolf  – If you’ve been running in circles, seeking guidance from everyone around you, but still aren’t sure what the right answers are, try tuning into the wise voice that lives within you. Ultimately, there is no better authority on your own life than you, and if you take the time to be still and go within, you will find that the answers you’ve been seeking were always inside of you. Listen closely. Trust that deep knowing. It’s the most powerful compass and if you let it, it will guide you home. 

Friday 3/20 – Antelope Reversed – Have you been spinning, spinning, spinning your wheels for quite some time now, but find that you haven’t gotten any where? Or maybe that you’ve gone quite a distance, but down the wrong road? Today asks that we pause, assess how we are spending our time and energy, and determine whether our actions are in alignment with our visions for our life. This is an opportunity to bring much more awareness and intention to everything we do and make sure that we are actively creating the life we want, rather than just going through the motions. 

Saturday 3/21 – Armadillo Reversed  – Our ability to create healthy, loving connections with others depends, in great part, on whether or not we are able to create strong, but flexible boundaries. Often, our relationships with boundaries setting can be like a pendulum that swings between the extremes of rigid boundaries that keep people out and soft or non-existent boundaries that leave us open to being taken advantage of or abused. Spend some time today reflecting on your relationships and where you could stand to move back into that healthy middle ground. Soften where you need to in order to allow love in. Be more firm in the places that you must in order to be loving towards yourself. And trust that the people who are truly meant for you will support you as you make these shifts (and perhaps even be inspired to look at their relationship to boundary-setting as well!).

Sunday 3/22 – Dolphin – The weekend comes to a close with a message from Dolphin reminding us of the joy that we can source from simply being alive, from experiencing our breath come in and out of our bodies, and from feeling our connection to all of creation through this universal pulse. Drop into these simple pleasures today and allow yourself to experience the awe of just how miraculous this life is. If you find yourself struggling to find a sense of gratitude, do something to wake your senses up. Dance wildly. Jump up and down. Work with your breath. Stand under a stream of cold water. Scream at the top of your lungs. Feel your heartbeat and remember that you are still here and that alone is a gift.

Weekly Forecast Monday January 27th, 2020

Monday 1/27 – Armadillo Reversed  – Boundary setting has been a hot topic in the self-help and social psychology worlds for years now but we mostly hear discussions about people with a lack of boundaries. What’s less spoken of is the fact that our relationship with boundary setting falls on a spectrum from rigid boundaries to soft or non-existent boundaries, with the healthy approach falling somewhere in the middle of these two poles. Today asks that we take a look at our own relationship to boundary-setting, both with others and with ourselves, and assess for places that we could work to move more towards that healthy middle ground. Could we stand to be clearer about our own needs and what does and doesn’t work for us? Or is our work in being more willing to compromise and to be flexible enough to make space for connection and intimacy? Only you will know what the answer is for you and how much you are willing to work at the edge of your comfort zone. And remember, this work is about progress, not perfection, so be gentle with yourself as you explore.

Tuesday 1/28 – Snake - So many of us have had really rough starts to this new year. The good news? The energy seems to be shifting and we’re finally getting to the place where we can see the gift held within our struggles. It’s time to take that pile of crap and use it to fertilize the garden of your life. What do you want to grow? What have your challenges taught you about what you value in life and what you want to prioritize? Now take any residual charge from the things that have triggered you and channel it into the creation of your highest vision. You’ve got this. 

Wednesday 1/29 – Eagle Reversed – You’re relationship with Spirit, either a higher power or simply your own spirit, is just like any other relationship in your life--it requires consistent tending. If you’ve been feeling disconnected from yourself and/or something greater than you, it’s time to rekindle those connections. Maybe that means spending time with your spiritual community, engaged in ritual or ceremony, or simply praying in whatever way feels true to you. Perhaps your own breath and heartbeat are the rhythms that will tap you back into the interconnectedness of all things and your vital place within the universe. Sometimes just creating space for the experience of awe and wonder can be the key. Either way, your relationship with Spirit is the most vital relationship in your life and the one that will carry you through until the end of your days. Invest in it accordingly. 

Thursday 1/30 – Bat  – Embrace the fresh energy and the shifts that are taking place both around and within you right now. A new phase is being ushered in and you are being invited to step more fully into your truth and power. There may be some shedding during this process and that’s okay. Release anything that is keeping you small or dimming your light. Don’t be afraid to try new things or new ways of being. You may find that you’ll learn something about yourself that has the opportunity to alter the landscape of your life in the most wonderful ways.

Friday 1/31 – Owl – Today offers a special opportunity to tap into your intuitive gifts and subtle senses. Most of us can’t see energy, but with practice, we can learn to fine-tune our ability to feel it. This is such a special gift to develop because, when we are more aware of our own energy and that of others, we can make more informed choices about how we wish to move through the world. Spend time today noticing your own energy field, how it impacts those around you, the energy fields of others, and how the energies of others interplays with your own. Just be mindful of appropriate boundaries and make sure that you are not manipulating or invading the energy of those around you. Simply tuning in with a gentle touch and unconditional positive regard is all it takes to start to cultivate a stronger intuitive abilities.

Saturday 2/1 – Black Panther Reversed  – Where are you afraid to surrender? To welcome in the unknown? To trust in both the universe and yourself? The answers to these questions may arise for you today. If you are feeling ungrounded or uneasy about the future, come back to your breath, place your bare feet on the earth, and feel the warmth of the sun on your face. Remind yourself of every obstacle you have surmounted and know that you have the ability to meet everything that is ahead, both the joyous experiences and the challenging ones, with courage and grace. Exhale your fear and release the desire to control the outcome. There are so many possibilities beyond what you can even imagine. Stay open, in both heart and mind.  

Sunday 2/2 – Otter Reversed – If you find yourself getting caught up in jealousy or competitive tendencies today, take a step back. You only cheat yourself of connection when you put yourself in opposition to others. Instead, do the most counter-intuitive thing and help someone else succeed. It might feel strange at first, especially if you’re in a lack mentality, but this simple act will bring you back to the truth that we rise by lifting others up and that there’s more than enough (money, love, opportunity, etc.) to go around. You might even make a connection that ends up bringing some much-needed nourishment and joy into your life as well. So don’t be stingy with your support, because you get what you give.

Weekly Forecast Monday January 20th, 2020

Monday 1/20 – Otter Reversed  – We all need time to ourselves every now and again but at the end of the day we are social creatures and need the support of a loving community around us. Invest in connections with people who nourish your soul today and keep your gatherings intimate and simple. A movie night. Family-style dinner at someone’s home. A stroll in the local park or conversation over a good cup of coffee or tea. These moments have the power to bring us home to ourselves and to remind us of what is most important in life. Make sure you make time for them.

Tuesday 1/21 – Spider Reversed - Don’t stifle your need to express yourself today. There are some many ways to move and release energy and it’s absolutely vital that you discharge what’s coming up for you, whether that’s through movement, song, making art, or writing. Free association writing in particular can serve as a powerful way to release anything that’s felt heavy on your heart and mind lately. Don’t be afraid to pour it all out on paper and then let it go.

Wednesday 1/22 – Coyote Reversed – We humans are such funny creatures especially when we so often are the architects of our own suffering. Coyote reminds us to laugh at ourselves and to notice the ways we are tripping ourselves up. It could be excessive worrying, self-righteousness, or self-sabotaging behaviors. Only you know where you have room to be a bit more gentle with yourself. Get honest about what shifts would most support you and then pour on the compassion as you work on yourself. 

Thursday 1/23 – Antelope  – You may experience a little boost of energy today so ride that wave and dig into any projects that you’ve been wanting to see move forward. Clear away any distractions if you can and let yourself drop completely into the flow of inspiration. When you’re in this zone, you’ll be able to get twice as much done and feel uplifted rather than drained along the way. 

Friday 1/24 – Butterfly Reversed  – Where you are is exactly where you are meant to be in this moment. Can you trust that? Can you look around you and soak up every bit of magic that is currently surrounding you? It’s part of the irony of life that once you are able to fully embrace your present circumstances you are more able to move forward into what’s next with a groundedness and clarity.

Saturday 1/25 – Dragonfly Reversed  – Remind yourself today that you shouldn’t necessarily believe everything you think. That doesn’t mean to spin out in confusion or distrust, but rather to simply leave some space for the possibility that there are other truths. Stay curious and open-minded today, particularly if you’re feeling like digging your heels in. You may find that seeing things from another perspective actually supports your own expansion as well. 

Sunday 1/26 – Jaguar Reversed – Integrity is all about alignment of values and actions and making sure that your life is an embodiment of what you believe. We all have moments in which we blur the lines of what we know to be right or wrong out of convenience or hurt, but it’s important that we do our best to catch ourselves in the act and reroute as frequently as we can. Do a little personal inventory today of where you could be better about walking your talk. No need to be harsh or judgemental. Simply notice the places where you’re not living up to the person you would like to be and create whatever shifts you need to in order to make yourself truly proud of how you show up in the world.

Weekly Forecast Monday January 6th, 2020

Monday 1/6 – Blue Heron  – Self reflection and insight practices can make a world of difference in how we come to understand ourselves, the world around us, and what choices best serve both as we move through our days. The tricky part is creating space for them. Carve out some time today, whether that’s 5 minutes or a few hours, to allow your mind to settle. This may include stillness in the form of a seated meditation or breath practice or perhaps you find that your mind quiets best when you’re engaged in a meditative physical practice like working with clay or walking out in nature. Whatever you do, make sure you turn the volume down on everything else in your life for a little bit, so that very wise inner voice of yours can come through. 

Tuesday 1/7 – Otter Reversed - Community over competition is the name of the game today. Some of our deepest healing in this life comes through relationships and we limit the depth of connection we are able to have with others if we’re constantly making others our opponents. Instead, try lifting someone else up around you. You might be surprised by how much nourishment you receive from helping someone else out. Lighting someone else’s flame will never diminish your own light, but will definitely make the world a whole lot brighter for all of us.

Wednesday 1/8 – Whale Reversed – It’s time to release any fears you have been carrying around allowing yourself to be fully seen and received by the world. You have a unique set of gifts that are meant to be shared. No, not everyone will love what you have to offer, but there will be those that will and that’s how you’ll know who your people are. No more playing wallflower. Show up as authentically as possible so that the opportunities and connections that are meant for you can find you.

Thursday 1/9 – Horse  – Your work today is centered around connecting with your power sources. For most of us, this will mean working at the edges of our comfort zones to break through any self-imposed limitations and to remind ourselves that we are capable of so much more than we think. For many of us, this may also mean distancing ourselves from anything that leaves us feeling disempowered--whether that’s a relationship, a habit, or a story we’ve been telling ourselves. If you’ve been struggling with confidence and need a little extra support, try connecting with a powerful image that resonates the type of frequency you would like to emit. It could be an animal totem, a celestial body, or even a plant spirit. When you feel yourself slipping into fear and doubt, bring that image to mind and allow it to infuse you with inspiration and courage. 

Friday 1/10 – Swan  – The messages about connecting with our truth and power continue today with Swan encouraging us to embrace and celebrate all of who we are. Swan represents grace and nothing is more graceful than someone who moves with loving embodiment. If this is something that doesn’t come easily for you, it might be worth investing some time in practices that help you tap into your own experience as well as your gifts. Intuitive movement. Free association writing. Sensuality and pleasure practices. These are all wonderful ways of getting in touch with what feels most natural to you and learning how to express yourself without apology. Go ahead and dive in. You may just find that you fall in love with yourself along the way.

Saturday 1/11 – Dragonfly  – Things are becoming clearer today and you may start seeing truths, both about your inner world and about the world around you. It is very likely that you may come to a deeper understanding of your purpose and what work you are here to do on this planet at this unique time in history. Take notes about what messages you receive today. They may serve as a very trusty roadmap as you continue to journey forward.

Sunday 1/12 – Owl Reversed – When Owl shows up in the reversed position, it’s usually a sign that we’ve been lying to ourselves on some level. These could be little white lies or major deceptions, but either way, it’s time to pull the curtain back and get really honest about how we’re showing up in the world, for others, for our purpose, and for ourselves. If you uncover a hard truth, be gentle with yourself. We are all so very human and embracing our shadows compassionately is just as vital as embracing our light. Besides, the more honest we can be with ourselves, the easier it will be to see the world around us more clearly as well.

Weekly Forecast Monday December 23rd, 2019

Monday 12/23 – Crow  – We may officially be moving towards longer, brighter days, but we are still in the midst of winter and a season of shadow. This is the time to go inward, to explore the parts of yourself that usually stay tucked away. If you’re not sure where to start, begin by looking at the things that most trigger you, whether that shows up in the form of deep rage, overwhelming grief, or intense judgement. If none of that sounds like a walk in the park, you’re right; shadowwork rarely feels warm and fuzzy. But this is where some of the most powerful growth and healing lies. So roll up your sleeves, take a deep breath, and take those first courageous steps towards deepening your own self-awareness.

Tuesday 12/24 – Raven Reversed - Have you forgotten to see the magic in the world around you and also within yourself? It’s time to remember. To notice the synchronicities that are constantly guiding you. To honor the power you have to create what you wish to in the world. If you’ve been feeling overburdened and find yourself dropping into a sense of helplessness, resist! Even the most challenging experiences in our lives can be channeled and transmuted into something wonderful. It’s all about how you choose to use what’s at your fingertips. 

Wednesday 12/25 – Swan Reversed – It can be oh so tempting to try to tweak and adjust ourselves so that we just might fit into the very narrow boxes that society gives us regarding how we should look and be in the world, but I promise you, it’s a trap and you’re never going to receive any true sense of belonging this way. Not to mention that it’s an absolute energy drain. Instead of trying to fit in, fully embrace the very things that make you different. After all, if you don’t allow your freak flag to fly, how are your fellow freaks going to find you? Go ahead, be the very most authentic version of yourself you can possibly be and you’ll be amazed at the perfect-for-you doors that start flying open.

Thursday 12/26 – Snake Reversed  – There’s no sugar-coating it--sometimes life gives us shit. And when that happens, we have two options; we can stand there feeling awful and disgusted by the pile of shit we’re holding or we can plant some seeds and slap that fertilizer on top and then watch beautiful things grow. This is the power of transmutation and it’s always available to you. You simply have to choose to find the opportunities in your challenges, the beauty in your pain, and then get to work creating something wonderful. You’ve got this. Now get to it.

Friday 12/27 – Alligator Reversed  – We’re almost at the end of the year (and the decade!) and in order to glean all the gifts and lessons from the seasons past, it’s absolutely vital that we slow down and take some time to integrate our experiences. Review the past year (or ten) and be sure to both celebrate your successes as well as learn from your struggles. Doing so will only help you enter this new era a little bit wiser and a whole lot clearer about what direction you want to go next. 

Saturday 12/28 – Beaver Reversed – Even though it might seem counterintuitive, the key to being productive and meeting your goals today is to avoid burning yourself out. While keeping your nose to the grindstone might sound like the best way to get a lot done, it also often drops us into tunnel vision and keeps us from picking up on important cues from our body and environment, so much so that we could end up injuring ourselves on the job or working in entirely the wrong direction. Slow, steady, and mindful is the name of the game today and will take you much farther than the fast-and-furious approach will. 

Sunday 12/29 – Prairie Dog Reversed – Feeling run down is not a sign of weakness and definitely not a signal to push harder. Read that again if you need to. Your spirit may be limitless but your human body is not. Take good care of it and listen to what it’s telling you. Rest is an absolutely vital part of any basic self care practice so set aside some time for a nap, a long hot bath, or any other restorative activities that will help you feel refreshed and replenished. A little downtime today could make all the difference in the week ahead.

Weekly Forecast Monday December 2nd, 2019

Monday 12/2 – Weasel  – The week opens up with a call to bring our energy fields in more tightly around us so that we may move through the world and whatever circumstances are coming up in our lives currently without making big waves. This can be especially useful in complicated social situations that we don’t wish to get tangled up in, but still offer opportunities for learning and growth. The key here is to focus on maintaining a grounded connection to our own energy while observing what’s happening around us with as little attachment to the outcome as possible. This allows heightened perception and clarity and can help us see through any confusion and into the truth of the matters at hand.

Tuesday 12/3 – Bat - Embrace this period of rebirth and start setting your sights on what you wish to step into in the season ahead. This may involve some shedding and possibly some growing pains or contractions as well, but trust that this is a natural part of the process and stay committed to your higher visions and goals. Ask yourself where you can more fully embody authenticity and a grounded sense of empowerment and then roll up your sleeves. Growth isn’t always linear so be gentle with yourself as you navigate your way into a new way of being or offering your gifts to the world.  

Wednesday 12/4 – Deer – The message of deer is a simple but profound one: Love will always be the most powerful force. Like water against rocks, it can soften and smooth even the most jagged energies, and often does so more gracefully than the force of fear or anger. Whether you’re dealing with yourself or others, the best approach today is gentleness. This may look like compassionate boundary-setting, dropping into self-care practices, or simply reconnecting with your heart-center and making choices based on the wisdom that emanates from within. 

Thursday 12/5 – Lizard – Your dreams are the wellspring of your ability to create a life that feels truly nourishing to you, which is why it’s so very important to set aside space for both waking visions and those that come to us when we sleep. Carve out a little time today to dream, whether that means daydreaming, actively brainstorming about what you’d like to manifest and ways to invest in those desires, sitting in meditation, or simply catching some much-needed rest and allowing messages to come through your subconscious. Make sure to stay open to invitations from Spirit as well. Sometimes our destinies are even more magical than we could ever design with our logical minds. 

Friday 12/6 – Otter  – Say yes to any opportunities for partaking in healing, heart-centered gatherings today. It can be easy to slip into the hustle bustle of the season or to lean into over-indulgence and escapism at this time of year, but there’s a special medicine to be found in being present and intentional in our connections with loved ones. If you haven’t received any invites, take the initiative and host a collection of your nearest and dearest in a way that encourages you and yours to slow down, to savor the moments you have with one another, and to do your best to lift each other up. These gifts are far more nourishing than anything that can be wrapped up in paper and a bow.

Saturday 12/7 – Lynx – If you feel called to name something you see in another person, especially if it has the potential to feel like a call-out, pause and ask yourself if what you wish to say will truly serve. It is totally possible to honor your truth and knowing without speaking it out loud. If you feel that what you have to say will actually support the best interests and healing of all involved, then make sure that you share what’s on your heart with as much love and compassion as possible. If, after reflection, you realize that naming it aloud is unnecessary or likely to prove unproductive, you can still release the energy by writing your words down and then burning or burying them. Sometimes these simple rituals can provide powerful shifts within us that ultimately impact everything around us as well.

Sunday 12/8 – Eagle – It is always a good time to come back to our connection with Spirit and with our heart, but today there is a particular call to do so. If you’ve found yourself getting caught up in frenetic holiday energy or the stress of shopping/traveling/over-extending yourself, grounding back in to your values and what truly matters most to you in this life will pave the way for more peace and joy. How you do this will be as unique as your own fingerprint. It could mean time out in nature, gathering with a spiritual community, or a simple ritual that helps you feel connected to something greater than yourself. Whatever you do, make sure that your practice feels authentic and truly nourishing to your soul.

Weekly Forecast Monday November 18th, 2019

Monday 11/18 – Ant Reversed  – We’re in the tail end of the retrograde so it’s very likely that we’re still experiencing delays and setbacks at the beginning of the week. Don’t fret and definitely don’t try to force things to move along any faster. Patience isn’t just a virtue, it can also be a practice in searching for opportunities in the in-between times, the redirections, and the stall outs. If you’re stuck in one place, it most likely means that there’s a gift there that you haven’t discovered yet. Instead of working yourself into a frustrated frenzy, try approaching the present moment with curiosity and wonder. Sometimes divine timing shows up in disguise and what initially felt like a scheduling disaster turns out to be a blessing.

Tuesday 11/19 – Alligator Reversed - Slow down and take some time to take stock of both where you are and where you’ve been. When we speed through life we miss the beauty of the landscape flying by. We also miss the lessons that come from intentionally integrating our experiences. Wisdom doesn’t come from the number of years we’ve been here in this body; it comes from sitting with our successes and our failures, being honest with ourselves about our gifts and our struggles, and continuously reorienting with the help of our internal compass. This requires moments of stillness and also the courage to be with ourselves, but the more we actively undertake our own growth, the gentler the lessons tend to be as time goes on. 

Wednesday 11/20 – Antelope – The questions to ask yourself (as many times as you need to) today are: What is the next right step? What most serves? Me? My community? The world? And then allow the answers to guide you into inspired action. If the answers don’t arrive, make the move that you feel in your heart to be right, and then check in. Rinse and repeat. Today is not a day for sitting in indecision and sometimes the only way to know whether something is a fit or not is to simply try it. Let go of any need for perfection. Be willing to make mistakes and humbly recalibrate as necessary. No venture can ever be a failure so long as you learn something from it.

Thursday 11/21 – Elk Reversed – Don’t underestimate the importance of pace. Too fast and furious and we burn ourselves out before we ever make it to the finish line. Too slow and the result is essentially the same, though we may have saved ourselves some energy. Balance is the key. Figure out what’s most important to you, clear away or deprioritize everything else, and then make a plan that allows for consistent and sustainable efforts towards your goals. It’s a surefire recipe for success.

Friday 11/22 – Buffalo  – The point of prayer is not to receive everything we ask for exactly the way we want it; it’s to humble ourselves in a way that opens us up to the abundance that already surrounds us. Find the places within where you’re gripping so very tightly and then slowly surrender. Sometimes when we let go of what we thought we wanted, we get what we actually needed, and often in the most unexpected of ways. Leave room for Spirit to surprise you and you may just experience magic. 

Saturday 11/23 – Opossum Reversed – There are times when it makes sense to “play dead” so to speak, but it’s important that we don’t begin to believe our own act. If we hide out or stay inactive too long we can find ourselves tangled up in the tendrils of inertia, wondering why nothing is moving forward in our lives. Where have you been asleep for too long? Our dreams are meant to inspire us into action upon waking, so open your eyes and get to creating the life you envision. No more waiting. The time is now. 

Sunday 10/24 – Frog Reversed – Cleansing our lives of toxins, on all levels, is most certainly important, but if we do so from a place of fear we’re only trading one pollutant for another. Stress is just as toxic to the body as chemicals or processed foods and sometimes the most healing thing we can do is to simply cut ourselves a little slack. Let your hair down today and maybe even indulge a little. Focus on letting go of guilt and the “shoulds” and embrace a carefree spirit. You might even find that the energy with which you consume certain things you once thought were toxic was actually more the culprit than the thing you were avoiding. Either way, a little lightheartedness and pleasure can go a long way today, so gift yourself a little bit of both.

Weekly Forecast Monday October 28th, 2019

Monday 10/28 – Lynx  – Pay close attention to your visions, subtle senses, and gut feelings today. Trust your inner knowing and allow it to guide you, particularly if you are navigating a challenging or delicate situation. If you find yourself receiving strong intuitive messages about someone else, there’s no need to point fingers or call anyone out, but certainly honor the truth of what you feel and take care of yourself accordingly. 

Tuesday 10/29 – Dog Reversed - Every relationship has an exchange dynamic that ebbs and flows across time. Today offers a ripe opportunity to examine how your relationships are feeling and whether or not the energy is flowing evenly and in a way that supports all parties. Have you been giving to the point of depletion? Or have you been receiving abundantly from those around you and now find yourself in a position to give back? Don’t forget to include your relationship with yourself in this review as well! Honoring your own needs, boundaries, and gifts are a vital part of developing your ability to do the same for others, so make sure that your relationship with yourself is a good model for the types of relationships you’d like to invite into your life!

Wednesday 10/30 – Elk Reversed – Feeling like you’re stretched a bit too thin? Or that you’ve been running, running, running yourself right into the ground? It’s always important to check in with our bodies and spirits to see how our pace is impacting our wellbeing, but it’s particularly important at this time of year when so many of us have a tendency to burn the candle at both ends. There’s no need to bring everything to a halt, but it is important to make sure that your lifestyle is one that is sustainable and supports your ability to be healthy on all levels. It’s hard to enjoy crossing a finish line if you’re completely broken down when you get there so make any adjustments necessary, whether that’s shuffling your schedule or letting go of a few commitments, to ensure that you can not only have enough steam to meet your goals, but to be happy and healthy before/during/after as well!

Thursday 10/31 – Turtle – Take some time to ground today. With Scorpio season in full effect, the new moon energies from Sunday still lingering, and the thinning of the veil, it’s extra important that we keep our feet on the ground, even if our spirits are soaring about. Nature is your ally always, but today especially. Put your bare feet on the earth, work with plants or clay, let the sunlight kiss your skin, lay in a soft patch of grass. The more you tap into your connection with the elements, the easier it will be to navigate the waves of emotion that often rise and fall during this time of year. 

Friday 11/1 – Wild Boar  – No more shying away from the issues that matter! Whether it’s an challenge cropping up in a relationship dynamic with someone else or something that is between you and yourself, it’s time to confront things head on. Face your fears. Speak your truth. And do it all with a spirit of love and compassion. If you’re concerned that the interaction could get explosive, be sure to release any charge around the issue through writing, movement, or sound before addressing it. And remember that being honest will never cause you to lose something that was truly yours.

Saturday 11/2 – Blue Heron Reversed – Self-reflection is incredibly valuable but, like anything in life, it must be undertaken with a balanced approach. There’s no point in sitting endlessly on the meditation cushion if we never apply our insights to our day to day experiences. Don’t get so caught up in trying to attain perfection or enlightenment that you become too paralyzed to take action for fear of making a mistake. Even so-called “failure” gives the gift of growth, wisdom, and deeper compassion. Live a fully embodied life and let every experience offer a lesson.

Sunday 10/27 – Snake Reversed – It’s time to stop keeping your gifts all bottled up inside. Not only will it lead to stuck or stagnant energy in your own physical and energetic bodies, it does a disservice to the world around you. You were put here on this earth at the particular time in history because you have something unique to offer that is needed and no one else can give your gifts to the world except you. Share who you are authentically, bravely, and without apology. The world needs more people shining their light and living from the truth of their heart. Be one of those people.

Weekly Forecast Monday October 21st, 2019

Monday 10/21 – Coyote  – Watch out for a tendency to take yourself too seriously today. Sooner or later, we all trip over our own feet, and the more we can carry ourselves with humility and a sense of humor, the easier it will be to not only recover from our missteps, but to grow from them as well. So take a deep breath and laugh at your own humanness. You may even notice that when you drop the defensiveness and self-importance, people actually respect you more.

Tuesday 10/22 – Raven - Magic is always available to you if you only choose to tap into it, but we’re currently moving through a season where the veil is especially thin. This doesn’t have to be seen as a spooky phenomenon, but instead a very special opportunity to connect with those that are no longer with us. Maybe that means asking for support and guidance from a loved one who has passed. Perhaps it looks like connecting with your lineage and ancestors that you may have never even met. It could be as simple as intentionally opening up to messages from spirit guides. Don’t be afraid to connect with the other side. As long as your intentions are pure and loving, the energies you call in will be as well.

Wednesday 10/23 – Elk Reversed – Take some time today to check in with your energy levels and your commitments. Do you have enough reserves to navigate the season ahead without running yourself into the ground? If not, you might consider shifting things in your calendar around or even removing some tasks altogether. You’ll be much more able to back out of or rearrange a commitment gracefully if you do so with fair notice and most people will respect your honesty and consideration. For anyone who doesn’t, just remind yourself that you’re modeling healthy boundaries by taking care of your wellbeing.

Thursday 10/24 – Frog – When Frog shows up in the spread it’s always a reminder of the importance of periodic cleansing. This could mean a review and revamp of your diet, your media habits, thought patterns, or even the people you surround yourself with. Notice what elevates your body and spirit, what tends to leave you feeling drained, and make the appropriate adjustments accordingly. Little shifts can lead to powerfully positive changes so don’t be afraid to step away from anything that isn’t helping you become the very best version of yourself. 

Friday 10/25 – Eagle  – Spirit can speak to you in so many different ways. Open yourself up today to receive signs--from strangers, through synchronicities, from nature, and even subtle feelings or visions. Ask for guidance and then notice what happens next. The more you listen for and honor the messages that show up, the more you’ll notice that absolutely everything is conspiring to support you.

Saturday 10/26 – Mouse – Discernment and paying attention to the details is the name of the game today. Review all the fine print and tune into your spidey senses. If something feels off, hold on making any decisions until you feel confident that you have full awareness of what’s at stake. Also, don’t be afraid to pass up any opportunities that don’t feel fully in alignment with your values and visions. Trying to force a fit often leads to regret down the line so be patient and trust that when it’s right, you’ll know. 

Sunday 10/27 – Spider Reversed – You may find yourself getting mired in jealousy or drama as the weekend comes to a close. If you notice these impulses coming up today, dig a little deeper and find out what is asking to be expressed. Are there parts of yourself that you’ve been keeping small? Is there a project or dream that you’ve been too afraid to undertake? Envy simply holds a mirror up to our unmet needs and desires, so use these signals as information and then get to work on your own healing by creating something that is authentic and uniquely yours.

Weekly Forecast Monday October 14th, 2019

Monday 10/14 – Opossum  – Sometimes when we’re experiencing a lot of resistance, whether that’s in a relationship dynamic or a passion project, the best thing we can do is to take a big step back. Instead of using more force, try giving the situation some space and stay open to the possibility that the issue could resolve without you actively engaging. Even if further attention from you is required, you’ll be much more able to access creative solutions once you’ve had a chance to outlet any charge around the situation and come back to your center. 

Tuesday 10/15 – Spider - Creativity is a powerful healer, whether you choose to share your creations with the world or not. The act of expressing ourselves authentically and transmuting our intangible experiences into something that can be seen, felt, or heard, if only by our own senses, allows us to move through the world in a more empowered way and also more gently. So don’t hold anything in today. Pour it out onto a canvas, into song, into movement, or any other format that feels true for you. Don’t worry about the product. What’s most important is your own catharsis.

Wednesday 10/16 – Owl – Just because something can’t be seen doesn’t mean it isn’t real. Listen closely to your more subtle senses. The chills that show up on your skin. The hairs that raise on your arm. That feeling in your gut or your chest. The vision that flashes through your mind momentarily. It’s not about needing to know exactly what these things mean in a literal way, but more about noticing that your intuition is speaking to you through your body and cultivating a relationship with these capacities. The more deeply you listen, the more you’ll come to understand your own unique intuitive gifts. 

Thursday 10/17 – Black Panther – Knowing that you actually have control over very little in your life can either be stress-inducing or a deep relief--the choice is up to you, but you’re much more likely to enjoy the ride if you surrender and allow the uncertainty to be exhilarating. In fact, you could even decide to treat your entire day like a game, approaching obstacles as challenges designed to keep you engaged and inspire creativity. If you’re having a hard time finding the fun in the detours, at the very least try your best to trust that they’re guiding you to the exact place you’re meant to be.

Friday 10/18 – Crow  – If you’ve been stuck in a loop with certain habits or behaviors that you know aren’t serving you, the key to breaking the cycle might be a little more compassion for yourself. It sounds counterintuitive but beating ourselves up rarely creates lasting shift. Instead of trying to use shame as an agent of change, get curious about the motivations beneath your actions. Once you can find the gift in the experience, you’ll be able to redirect and find what it is you’re truly seeking through healthier channels. 

Saturday 10/19 – Eagle Reversed – When we start to feel disconnected or lost, that’s a sign that it’s time to invest in our relationship with Spirit. What that looks like will be unique to each person. For some it might mean prayer. For others, time out in nature or connecting with uplifting community. Whatever you need to do to remind yourself that you are here for a reason and that you are not alone, go do it. We all need a little infusion of love and hope from time to time and it’s up to us to get out there and find what we need.

Sunday 10/20 – Raven – Magic is everywhere. Whether or not we see it is really a matter of perspective. Remember the things that brought you the most excitement and joy as a child. More often than not, it’s the simplest experiences that are the most nourishing. Open yourself up to beauty and awe today. And don’t forget that your words are magic, too. Be mindful of what spells you cast when you speak. What you say, both out loud and internally, has the power to shape your world. Make sure that you’re creating something that lights you up.

Weekly Forecast Monday October 7th, 2019

Monday 10/7 – Wolf  – If you open your eyes and heart to receive, absolutely everything can be your teacher today. From wise souls that cross your path, even for the briefest of moments, to challenging experiences and relationship dynamics. Approach everything with the curiosity of a child today and mine each moment for soul nourishment and growth. 

Tuesday 10/8 – Moose - Don’t be afraid to toot your own horn today. Better yet, be bold and celebrate your strengths and accomplishments with enthusiasm. Not only is it important for your own sense of self esteem, it will also remind others around you that it’s more than okay to let your light shine as brightly as it will. Just keep your feet on the ground and humility in your heart and your grounded confidence and self-love will lift everyone else right up with you.

Wednesday 10/9 – Bat – You’re moving into a new phase today in the way you feel about and approach life and the opportunities it brings you. This is a beautiful day to embrace changes, both external and internal, and to shed shed shed anything that’s been holding you back from becoming who you’ve always wanted to be. Letting go doesn’t always have to be a mournful experience. Sometimes it feels like freedom. Spread your wings fully today and soar.

Thursday 10/10 – Prairie Dog – We all need the occasional rest day here and there and today is a day to honor your body’s need to recharge. Curl up with blankets and a good book. Sip some soothing herbal teas. Take a nap or maybe two! Especially as we move through the height of cold season, taking time to have moments of external stillness allows our body’s internal healing processes to do their job and a little downtime today could be just the  support you need to stay on your A-game, physically and otherwise.

Friday 10/11 – Grouse  – It can be easy to take it for granted sometimes, but simply living in a human body is such a gift. Remind yourself of that today by really dropping into your sensory experience in whatever way feels good for you. Maybe that means taking in some beautiful sights or visual art. Perhaps it’s lying in a sun puddle or stopping to smell every fragrant flower you come across. For some of us, it looks like listening to music and letting the vibrations inspire movement, internally or externally. It doesn’t really matter how you do it, but make sure to celebrate the unique gifts your vessel offers you and allow those experiences to nourish your spirit on the deepest levels. 

Saturday 10/12 – Dog – Loyalty to our dearest ones is important, but it always has to begin with the ability to be loyal to ourselves. How can you more fully honor your heart today? Where can you listen more closely to your intuition and subtle senses and follow their requests? Is there an area of your life where there’s room to be even more authentic and true to yourself? These are the questions to ask today. It’s not about reaching some endpoint, but instead continuously checking in with that quiet inner voice and finding ways to show it that we are listening and that we care about its murmurings. 

Sunday 10/13 – Buffalo Reversed – If you’ve been feeling a sense of lack, ask Spirit to show you the beauty in your own life. We all go through times where we feel disconnected or struggle to feel gratitude. There’s no need to judge yourself for this, but letting these experiences crack us open is the path to reconnecting with the goodness that is present. Sometimes prayer is as simple as saying “guide me” and then waiting and doing your best to trust, even in your own uncertainty, that none of this is random. These moments, humbling as they can be, often bring us the greatest gifts of our lives. Don’t be afraid to let it all in.

Weekly Forecast Monday September 30th, 2019

Monday 9/30 – Beaver  – If there was ever a day to get to work on the things that you’re passionate about, today would be it. Roll up your sleeves and dig into the projects that you’ve been dreaming about. No matter how big or lofty your goals are, the best way to achieve them is to simply get started. And be sure to reach out to others in your community for support if needed. You may find that you have more resources at your disposal than you realized.

Tuesday 10/1 – Frog - Frog medicine is that of cleansing and this can take place on a variety of different levels. Perhaps it’s time to clean up your diet or to detox your body via saunas or a sweaty gym session. Maybe a deep clean of your home would feel most beneficial. You might even consider looking around at the people that surround you or the messages you’re taking in through media and taking a big step back from anyone or anything that depletes you or leaves you feeling dysregulated. Take some time today to figure out what parts of your life could use a revamp and take action to clear away what no longer serves in order to make space for what will. 

Wednesday 10/2 – Whale Reversed – Each and everyone of us has a unique voice and message to share. It’s part of our personal medicines and today your task is to find and remove anything that impedes your ability to speak your truth. Limiting belief systems, habits that dim your light, and people who encourage you to stay small can no longer take up space in your life. Let it all go with love, hone in on what kind of impact you want to make on your communities and the world at large, and then get to work sharing your gifts.

Thursday 10/3 – Black Panther Reversed – The only way your Shadow is going to trip you up is if you refuse to acknowledge it. It’s time to pull the rug back and look directly at everything you’ve been sweeping under there. Once you have fully embraced and integrated all parts of  you, you’ll not only free yourself from shame but you’ll also be more able to see the gifts in even the most challenging parts of your experience. 

Friday 10/4 – Spider  – Creativity is one of the most powerful healers and a wonderful tool for transmuting your struggles into something beautiful. Paint. Dance. Write. Sing. Work with clay or plants. There’s really no wrong way to express yourself as long as you’re doing something that feels authentic. The more vulnerable and honest you can be in the process, the more you’ll receive from the experience, and the more likely it is that whatever you create will support others as well. Don’t overthink it. Simply open up and let whatever wants to come through you flow. 

Saturday 10/5 – Ant – Patience is a virtue but one that so many of us struggle to embody. Do your best to trust in divine timing today and if you find yourself feeling like you’re getting stuck or stalled out in a way that is frustrating, ask yourself what gifts are to be found in the present. Whether it’s a lesson that you have yet to fully receive, protection from taking on too much too quickly, or simply a rare opportunity to stop and smell the roses, you wouldn’t be experiencing the slow down unless there was a little more juice in your current phase so stop trying to skip ahead and just enjoy every last drop of this moment. 

Sunday 10/6 – Hummingbird Reversed – When we find ourselves becoming short and irritable over the tiniest things, it’s time to take a step back and a very deep breath. Play isn’t only for children; in fact, it’s vital to our wellbeing. Spend time around people that make you laugh. Do something silly, just for the sheer joy of it. Drop into curiosity, wonder and awe. Even just a few moments of good, clean fun can be incredibly refreshing to the spirit, body, and mind, so carve out some time to let your hair down and de-stress. You’ll have more energy, creativity, and patience in the week ahead if you prioritize filling your own cup up today.

Weekly Forecast Monday September 16th, 2019

Monday 9/16 – Armadillo Reversed  – When we talk about healthy boundaries, we are so often focused on concerns of boundaries not being strong or clear enough, but the opposite extreme can be just as unhealthy. Are there places in your life where you keep people at a distance by being rigid? Perhaps there’s somewhere you could be just a touch more flexible in a way that creates more space for connection. The lines are drawn in the sand so that we can adjust them as we shift and change. Make sure that you’re checking in regularly to see what is right for the moment at hand.

Tuesday 9/17 – Raccoon Reversed - Helping others out is a beautiful thing, but when you start running around trying to save the day, especially for those who didn’t ask for support, you’re most likely veering into martyrdom territory and that rarely ends well. Try bringing the focus back to your own life and pour all of that loving energy on yourself. If someone does actually ask for your support, make sure that you’re showing up in a way that empowers rather than encourages dependency. This will keep resentments at bay on both sides and creates a circular energy exchange that is mutually enriching rather than depleting. 

Wednesday 9/18 – Horse Reversed – We’re all entitled go deep into our feels from time to time, but watch out today for a tendency to get sucked into a pity party. Wallowing in what’s not going right or pointing fingers will never get you to the place you want to be. Instead, look within. Find the places in your life where you have agency to create positive changes and get to work making shift happen. If you find that you’ve been the architect of your own unhappiness, there’s no need to beat yourself up about it either. Becoming aware of our own self-sabatoging habits is at least half of the battle. Once you know better, you can not only do better, but enjoy the rewards of creating a life that truly feels joyous to you.

Thursday 9/19 – Otter – It’s easy to forget that we humans are really just animals after all. It’s even easier to forget that we come from lineages of communal creatures that spend a lot of time engaged in bonding and connection behaviors. Our modern day society isn’t always set up to encourage lots of community time or deep intimacy, so it’s vital to the wellbeing of all of us that we set aside time just for that. If you don’t feel that there are communities around you that gather or connect in ways that feel supportive and inclusive then seize the opportunity to be the one to create that space. We all need places where we can feel seen and accepted and creating those spaces is a special kind of service that will create so much nourishment for not only those around you, but for yourself as well. 

Friday 9/20 – Owl  – Open to the possibility of learning something new about yourself today. You may have gifts that you haven’t even discovered yet, just waiting to be tapped. Maybe it’s an artistic skill. Perhaps it’s an intuitive capacity. It could even be a passion or dream that you’ve kept hidden away, even from yourself, for some reason. Just because you’ve lived with yourself your whole life doesn’t mean you know everything there is to know about you. Stay curious. Try new things just to see what sticks. You never know what you might find and the ways, both big  and small, in which your life could shift.

Saturday 9/21 – Dragonfly – The self-discovery continues on today as Dragonfly calls us to release our illusions and to clean the lens through which we view the world. What limiting beliefs are you ready to leave behind? What fears no longer hold any power over you, and how high can you soar once you no longer carry the weight of self-doubt and judgement? You’re entire experience of the world can change in an instant; all you have to do is choose to shift your perspective. 

Sunday 9/22 – Lizard – The unconscious mind is so incredibly powerful and holds the keys to our deepest desires and gifts. Notice where you go, both when you dream during sleep and when your mind wanders during the day. Don’t write off your dreams as too big/too small/too silly/ etc. It’s time to give yourself permission to invest in your heart’s quiet callings. Even if that only means speaking them aloud or writing a vision in your journal, it’s a start. The more you create an exchange with your dreamlife, which is so intimately connected to your intuition, the more you will find that life aligns to support you in some truly miraculous ways. Take a chance. What do you have to lose?

Weekly Forecast Monday September 2nd, 2019

Monday 9/2 – Prairie Dog Reversed  – It  seems that last week’s theme of slowing down and taking time to drop into deeply restorative states is continuing into this week. The medicine of Prairie Dog is retreat and the call today is to rest. Sleep in, schedule an appointment for some bodywork, or lounge around in a pool or bath. Whatever you do, make sure that you are stepping away from any unnecessary sources of stimulation and allowing yourself to be deeply nourished in mind, body, and spirit. Even just a little time out for a meditation or lying on the earth to ground can go a long way towards refreshing your being.

Tuesday 9/3 – Wolf Reversed - Be extra mindful today in the ways that you seek guidance. A little support or another perspective can be helpful from time to time, but at the end of that day, are you coming back to your own inner knowing? No one else has more authority over what your life should look like than you. Make sure you honor that. Besides, putting others up on pedestals is always a set up for disillusionment and the truth is that it’s not fair to anyone involved. 

Wednesday 9/4 – Snake – No matter what comes your way today, use it in service to your own healing and that of the world. Let the abundance of beauty you encounter overflow into the quality of your presence with others. Mine your challenges for gifts and opportunities to create positive change in your communities. Every experience offers you a chance to learn, grow, and deepen your capacity for compassion and connection--what will you create today?

Thursday 9/5 – Raccoon – Every one of us has some sort of gift in this life, whether that’s a loving, grounded family, material abundance, wisdom beyond your years, a natural talent, or powerful embodiment of a certain virtue. Your task today is to find the areas in which you’ve been blessed and then to share those blessings with those around you who may not have been as fortunate. This is, after all, how any one of us is nurtured into greatness in this life and paying it forward is an investment in our elevation as a collective community. 

Friday 9/6 – Badger Reversed  – There are times when bringing an intensity to our pursuits can be beneficial, maybe even vital, but today we would be much better served by staying soft. This doesn’t mean you can’t be determined or driven, but do so in a way that keeps you connected to your heart and steeped in kindness. You may find that you get better results this way and spend less of your own energy in the process, too.

Saturday 9/7 – Turtle Reversed – The antidote to feeling disconnected is to open your eyes, mind, and heart to the world around you. Notice the beauty that surrounds you, sometimes even in the most unexpected places. Soak up the gifts of nature in any way you can. Stare deeply into the sky. Inhale the fragrance of plant life. Let your body be warmed by the sun. Remember that you are just as vital to this complex universe as every rock, blade of grass, and drop of water and let that knowing instill a sense of belonging in you. If this is feeling particularly challenging, find a way to steward the natural world. Volunteer to clean up a beach, put out a dish of water for thirsty bees, or donate to organizations that protect wildlife. Owning your impact can not only bring more meaning and purpose to your life, but can nourish your soul as well.  

Sunday 9/8 – Black Panther – The unknown can be scary, but it is also the birthplace of possibility. Rather than getting wrapped up in your fears, focus on curiosity. Let yourself be drawn towards the things that light you up. Your comfort zone might be cozy, but it’s not where you’re going to find growth or expansion, so take a leap today, big or small, and trust that you will be able to catch yourself.

Weekly Forecast Monday August 26th, 2019

Monday 8/26 – Moose  – Don’t be afraid to shine brightly today. If you’ve been dimming your light or holding back from sharing your gifts with the world for fear of making others feel small, it’s time to let those stories go. When you celebrate your strengths, you give permission for others to do the same.

Tuesday 8/27 – Owl - Pay extra close attention to any gut feelings you have today. If you feel like something is off, trust that. You may not be seeing the full picture but the body always knows. Take a beat, ask any clarifying questions that you need to, and hold off on making any major moves until you feel certain that you know the motives of everyone involved, including yourself. 

Wednesday 8/28 – Antelope Reversed  – Analysis paralysis is real, especially during Virgo season when perfectionist tendencies often kick into overdrive. The antidote to getting stuck in inertia is to simply act. Take one step, no matter how small, in the direction of what you want. Remember, you can always reroute if necessary, but the longer you wait, the less likely it is that you’ll ever make a move, so no more stalling. 

Thursday 8/29 – Fox – Fox medicine is all about blending in and moving through the world without drawing too much attention to yourself and if that’s not a skill you’ve already mastered, today’s the day to start cultivating that skill. This isn’t about trying to hide your gifts or an inability to show up due to a lack of self-worth; it’s about noticing what happens when you don’t interject your own energy into a situation. Sometimes we can get a much clearer picture when we sit back and observe from the sidelines and from there, we can decide if and how much we want to engage.

Friday 8/30 – Bear  – Take some time out to go inward today, and all the better if that time can also involve some solitude. Meditate. Take a walk alone. Journal. Whatever helps you get in touch with your inner world, do that. We’re in the midst of a seasonal shift and it’s a perfect moment to take stock of what you’ve moved through over the last handful of months, the lessons you’ve learned, and what your visions are as you move forward. 

Saturday 8/31 – Prairie Dog Reversed – Your body may be sending you some powerful signals today that it’s time to slow down and rest. Listen! We are incredible beings with capacities far beyond what most of us even know, but our bodies still have limitations. Don’t risk your wellbeing, physically, mentally, or emotionally, by trying to push beyond what is humanly possible. Sleep. Eat nourishing foods. Stretch and hydrate. These seem like simple things but they so often get pushed aside when we get overwhelmed or even just have a hard time saying no. Put your wellness first today. Everything else can wait until you’ve had a chance to fill your own cup back up. 

Sunday 9/1 – Elk – Whether you’re working on a big work venture, trying to hit health goals, or trying to get a passion project off the ground, the key to success is pacing yourself. Spend some time today sitting with your priorities and making a realistic plan of how you are going to manage the tasks at hand. Slow and steady is the name of the game. Stick to step-wise progress and you’ll not only be hitting milestones before you know it, you’ll have the strength and energy to enjoy your accomplishments as well.

Weekly Forecast Monday August 5th, 2019

Monday 8/5 – Deer – Fighting fire with fire rarely yields positive results, but today especially, lean into a more gentle approach if you encounter any friction with others. Focus on being compassionate and remember that people act out when they are wounded. That doesn’t mean you have to tolerate abusive behavior. If you need to remove yourself from any circumstances that feel unsafe, then most definitely do, but do so with a focus on practicing self-love rather than falling into the desire to punish or retaliate. Staying soft is the most powerful thing you can do when someone else is pulling for you to react in a way that isn’t truly in integrity or alignment with your highest self.

Tuesday 8/6 – Raven Reversed - Pragmatism and logic are most definitely valuable, but don’t underestimate the importance of magic, awe, and wonder. These are the birthplaces of creativity, opportunity, and healing. If you’ve found yourself feeling weighed down, stuck in a rut, or uninspired then it’s time to shift your perspective and seek beauty all around you. This doesn’t have to be a solely visual exercise either. Perhaps it’s kindness between strangers, the sound of the breeze rustling through grass, or the feeling of water running over your skin. Tune in. Look closely. Just for today, forget about practical concerns and allow yourself to be absorbed in the gifts of each moment. 

Wednesday 8/7 – Rabbit Reversed  – Your words have tremendous creative potential so be mindful today about what you’re calling in as you speak. If fears have been plaguing you, honor what’s coming up but don’t feed into it. It’s a subtle distinction but an important one as the way we speak to ourselves, both internally and out loud, directly impacts our perception and physiology. If images of what could go wrong keep running through your mind, try reframing by naming your hopes and highest visions. If you can control the outcome, then get to work creating what you want. If you can’t then all you can do is accept what comes and do your best to roll with the punches. Either way, worrying is only a waste of your precious energy. 

Thursday 8/8 – Otter Reversed – Spend time today leaning into community connection. Check in on your friends. Attend a gathering or perhaps even host one. Especially if you’ve found yourself isolating a bit more recently, it’s time to come out of your shell and allow yourself to be seen. If this brings up discomfort then it might be worth digging into the beliefs that have kept you from embracing the vulnerability that comes along with interdependence. Are you afraid of being either too much or not enough for others? Have you been hesitant to trust the people around you for fear of being disappointed? Relationships are some of the richest growth experiences we can have in this human life, so challenge yourself to take the risk of reaching out. 

Friday 8/9 – Crow – How fully do you embrace all of who you are? Today is a ripe opportunity to explore that question and to work at the edges of the answer. Most, if not all, of us have parts of ourselves that we’d rather not show to the outside world, but the energetic toll of hiding bits and pieces of who we are can really add up. Free yourself from the burden of shame by owning your shadows. Find healthy ways of expressing them and test out the possibility that they might not be as awful as you’ve imagined them to be. You are, after all, human. Acknowledge that. Allow yourself the deep exhale that comes when you no longer live in fear of rejection and instead show up with total authenticity and full trust that you will be received by those that are meant to join you on the journey, and that those who don’t are simply not meant to be part of your story at this time. 

Saturday 8/10 – Dragonfly – It’s difficult to see situations and people for what and who they actually are when our vision is clouded by intense desire. Watch out today for a tendency to project your wishes onto reality by being really honest with yourself about what you want and how that could be impacting your perspective. In particular, if something feels a bit off or things aren’t quite adding up, be sure not to override your intuition. This is definitely a time to listen closely to your gut and it’s much easier to do that when we loosen the grip on our attachments.

Sunday 8/4 – Hummingbird Reversed – Your task for today is simple: Play! If that sounds like a challenge then you may even need a double dose. Whatever it takes for you to release stress, reconnect with joy, and drop into some deep belly laughter, do that! Nothing replenishes the spirit quite like allowing yourself some downtime in which you can be truly carefree, even if you have to block it into your schedule. Besides, you know what they say about a Sunday well-spent. Take time to nourish yourself today and you might be surprised at what a boost it gives you in the week ahead.
