🔮 Featured Card: The Hanged Man

Cosmic Weather Guidance

This week, the universe has a specific message for you, inviting you to embrace stillness and surrender amidst transformative energies.

The New Moon in Libra on August 28, 2025, marks a time for fresh starts, particularly in your relationships and personal balance. You may find yourself more attuned to your emotions and intuition, seeking harmony and fairness in your interactions.

With the Sun in Leo, your inner fire is burning brightly, urging you to express your unique self boldly. However, the Moon square Venus aspect suggests potential tension in your relationships, requiring you to navigate with compassion and understanding. Embrace this as an opportunity to deepen your connections by listening and being present.

Mars in Virgo squaring Jupiter in Gemini brings a dynamic energy that might push you to take action or make significant decisions. This is your time to channel this energy into practical steps toward your goals, but be mindful of overcommitting. Trust your instincts when you feel the need to slow down and reassess your priorities.

Venus trine Saturn (Retrograde in Pisces) offers a stabilizing influence, encouraging you to reflect on your values and commitments. This transit supports you in making long-term decisions with a sense of responsibility and patience. This week, focus on what truly matters to you and let go of what no longer serves your path.

Embrace the stillness of the New Moon to set intentions for balance and growth.

Affirm to yourself: "I am open to new perspectives and trust the flow of my life's journey."

Your Cards This Week

I pulled these cards specifically for you this week: The Hanged Man and The Hermit.

Your first card, The Hanged Man, reveals a need for surrender and a shift in perspective. You may be facing a situation where letting go of control is essential for your growth. Embrace this moment to pause and reflect on what you need to release to move forward.

The second card, The Hermit, shows that you are being called to seek solitude and inner wisdom. This is a time for introspection and self-discovery. Trust that by turning inward, you will find the clarity and insight you need. This card encourages you to take a step back from the noise of the world and listen to your inner voice.

Your final guidance is to combine the energies of these cards. By surrendering to the flow of life (The Hanged Man) and engaging in deep self-reflection (The Hermit), you will gain profound insights and a renewed sense of purpose.

This week, create space for stillness and allow yourself to be guided by the wisdom within.

Weekly Spiritual Practice

Based on this week's energy, I recommend this practice for you:

A New Moon meditation for surrender and clarity.

Choose a moment when you feel calm and undisturbed, perhaps during the evening of the New Moon on August 28th.

You will begin by finding a comfortable seated position, closing your eyes, and taking deep breaths. Visualize the New Moon in Libra, symbolizing balance and new beginnings. As you inhale, imagine drawing in the energy of surrender and letting go. With each exhale, release any tension or attachments that no longer serve you.

Next, invite the energy of The Hanged Man and The Hermit into your meditation. See yourself hanging in a state of suspension, gaining a new perspective on your life. Then, envision yourself as The Hermit, walking a path of solitude and inner wisdom. Allow these images to guide you toward clarity and peace.

You'll notice a sense of calm and renewed focus after this practice. This will help you embrace the transformative energies of the week and make decisions aligned with your true self.

Remember, I am here to support you on your journey. Trust in the process and know that you are exactly where you need to be.
