June Reflections

Strength (8 of Swords) Areas in life that feel stagnant have more potential than you realize; if you accept your circumstances, you’ll regain your momentum.  Your restrictions are self-imposed and are the result of misplaced ideals.  Re-examine your lofty goals and see how they have become a hindrance rather than an asset.  You may be ignoring your own authority, projecting it onto something outside you.  The most important lessons are those in which you overcome yourself.  Find resolve in accomplishments from the past.  After the 25th, your challenges will begin to dissipate; take advantage and make a move.

Star (4 of Cups) Bona fide opportunities can be a rare gift.  Be conscious not to shrug off what seems familiar and comfortable.  Even the best relationships require maintenance, so be extra careful not to overlook the blessings you have.  Another’s validation means more to you than you know - admit this to yourself and ask for what you want.  Tremendous creativity will surround everything that you do, so welcome this change and give it space to grow; it could lead you to a very surprising reward.  The new moon bestows extra sensory powers - use them wisely!

Tower (Page of Swords) Emotions run high as you come to terms with managing all aspects of your life.  Don’t stretch yourself too thin.  Strong convictions may be tested, as your loyalty is questioned and you are accused of something you didn’t do.  Earth-shattering revelations on the weekend of the 7th may be the cause of upheaval in your environment.  Don’t believe everything you hear and likewise watch your tongue - gossip tends to be a double-edged sword.  Relying on a confidant’s or partner’s opinion will cause future trouble; make your own assessments!

World (Knight of Swords) A chaotic situation seems to come full circle as the problems of the past make a reappearance.  However, what once seemed uncontrollable is now near resolution - act strategically or it may lead to further turmoil.  Stay flexible and alert, for the ground is still unsettled; too much movement will attract conflict.  There is a definite resolution, but you must be willing to confront your pessimistic attitude.  A bitter wind blows through around the 11th.  Don’t let yourself be provoked by petty banter or gossip, as it could lead to trouble in an otherwise solid relationship.  

Sun (7 of Wands) This is your moment in the spotlight - use all your talents to build the stage you’ve always wanted to stand upon.  Have the courage to be who you are: trim the edges that no longer define you and bring light to the areas that have been in the shadows.  Allow the new and improved you to be seen and admired.  Set serious goals that support the person you want to be, and trust your inner strength to guide you in the best direction.  Healthy competition the week of the 16th will inspire a new passion or love interest.

Magician (7 of Cups) It has been said, “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams; live the life you’ve imagined,” and, “Your dreams will come true if you have the courage to pursue them.”  You have the power to create your own life no matter how fantastic it may be; however, you must be willing to make deliberate choices to support that vision.  Confusion will give way to clarity as you recognize your own potential - get out of your own way and do what’s necessary to make it happen.  The weekend of the 21st is a magical time when anything is possible!
