> Moon Phase: Waning Gibbous
> Moon Sign: Leo ♌️
> Energy Focus: Transformative and intuitive

This week, the universe has a specific message for you, and it's all about harnessing your inner strength and moving forward with confidence.

The Waning Gibbous Moon in Leo is shining a light on your emotions and intuition, urging you to release what no longer serves you. You may find yourself reflecting deeply on your personal journey and the victories you've achieved. Embrace this time to let go of any doubts or fears that have been holding you back.

With the Sun, Mercury, and Venus all in Scorpio, you're in a powerful position to transform your life. The Sun conjunct Venus is bringing a surge of passion and intensity to your relationships and personal desires. This is your time to dive deep into what truly matters to you and make bold decisions that align with your heart's truth. Trust your instincts when it comes to matters of love and personal fulfillment.

Mercury trine Jupiter and Mercury trine Saturn are enhancing your communication and decision-making skills. You'll find it easier to express your thoughts and plans with clarity and wisdom.

Whether you're negotiating a new opportunity or setting boundaries, your words will carry weight and influence. Use this energy to your advantage by speaking your truth and standing firm in your convictions.

Mars square Jupiter in Gemini (Retrograde) may bring some tension between your desire for action and the need for reflection. You might feel a push to charge ahead, but the universe is asking you to pause and consider the bigger picture.

This is a moment to balance your drive with patience and wisdom. Trust that the right path will reveal itself in due time.

As you navigate this week, remember that you are the master of your destiny. The cosmic energies are aligning to support your growth and success. Embrace your inner power and let it guide you towards the victories you seek.

Your affirmation for the week is: "I am in control of my journey, and I move forward with confidence and clarity."

I pulled these cards specifically for you this week: The Chariot and The High Priestess.

Your first card, The Chariot, reveals that you are in a period of triumph and forward momentum. You have the willpower and determination to overcome any obstacle and achieve your goals. This card is a testament to your inner strength and the progress you've made. Embrace the energy of victory and keep pushing forward with confidence.

The second card, The High Priestess, shows that your intuition is a powerful guide on this journey. She reminds you to trust your inner wisdom and listen to the whispers of your subconscious. The High Priestess encourages you to take time for reflection and meditation, allowing your intuition to lead you towards the right path.

This week, make space for quiet moments where you can connect with your inner self. Your final guidance is to combine the energies of The Chariot and The High Priestess. This power combination signifies the harmonious integration of action and intuition.

By tapping into your inner wisdom, you can navigate any challenges with greater clarity and success. Trust your instincts as you move forward, knowing that you have the strength and insight to achieve your dreams.

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

A Victory and Intuition Ritual.

Choose a moment when you feel calm and centered, preferably during the evening when the Moon's energy is strong. You will need a quiet space, a journal, and a candle.

Begin by lighting the candle and taking a few deep breaths to ground yourself. Reflect on your recent victories and the progress you've made. Write down three accomplishments you're proud of and the lessons they've taught you. This will help you acknowledge your strength and the Chariot's energy within you.

Next, close your eyes and connect with your intuition. Ask the High Priestess to guide you towards your next steps. Listen to any insights or messages that come to you, and write them down in your journal. This practice will help you harness the power of your inner wisdom and align your actions with your soul's purpose.

As you complete this ritual, you'll notice a sense of clarity and confidence growing within you. This will help you move forward with purpose and trust in your journey.

Remember, you are supported by the universe, and you have the tools to achieve your goals. Keep nurturing your inner strength and intuition, and you'll continue to triumph on your path.

Stay empowered, and know that I'm here to support you every step of the way.
