Virgo – Balanced & Stable

Aug. 23 – Sept. 22

In astrology, Virgo is the sixth sign of the zodiac and its governing season is August 22nd to September 22nd. Folks that are born under the Virgo sun are highly aware of the world around them. They are ruled by the planet Mercury. They are known for their complexity and detail. Virgos are logical, practical, and systematic beings. They are Earth signs and are often known to be perfectionists in all aspects of life. Earth signs are known for their grounding energy and can ground those around them in tough situations with their strategic thinking. Their need to be perfect can also serve as a weakness if they aren’t careful. Their systematic nature can be confusing to others and can sometimes cause conflict among their coworkers and friends.

Major Arcana Cards

Virgo is represented by The Hermit card. The Hermit card is depicted as a lonely man with a dark cloak draped over him. This card represents Virgo’s tendency to find fulfillment within themselves and contemplate perfectionism before venturing out beyond. The man depicted on the card is set on completing his own personal mission by his own personal means. The Hermit card in reverse means that you have drawn too far back from those around you and are focusing too much on your own thoughts. Earth to Virgo! Come back to us! 

#Minor cards 

Previously we talked about the Major Arcana card for Virgo. Now let’s discuss Minor Arcana Cards. The five Minor Arcana Cards for Virgos are the King of Pentacles, Queen of Swords, Eight of Pentacles, Nine of Pentacles, and Ten of Pentacles. Our Virgo’s are associated with the pentacles of the tarot deck. When these cards appear in a reading, they mean prosperity, success, and manifestation. 

Compatibility 

Have you ever wondered who you are compatible with? Well, Virgos are very compatible with Capricorn, Scorpio, Taurus, and Cancer signs. Virgos are naturally pulled towards signs that can help them grow as people both in their spiritual journey and their material journey. Typical Virgos know what they want and when they want it. So a partner who is confident in who they are is a great solid match for Virgo. They won’t settle for anything less than they know is possible, making them serious relationship partners. Don’t be fooled though…Virgos know how to have fun and let go when they want to. Over all, they make great solid partners in relationships and friendships. 

Careers 

Because of their systematic and precise nature, Virgos are great in careers that require a lot of attention to detail. Doctors, nurses, critics, writers, and teachers are often Virgos. They have the ability to see the tiny things that need fixing and don’t mind taking teeny tiny steps until everything is perfect. Virgos tend to love learning as well, which is great for those of you in the medical field! School might be hard, but you love the grind! They often do not feel satisfied and successful unless they get a job done well! Being a doctor or a writer can be gratifying for a Virgo because they can see constant results in their patients and their work. 

Celebrity Virgos

Looking at our Virgo celebrity line up, there is no doubt in our mind that Virgos are bound for success. The talented actress, singer, model, and all of the above superstar, Zendaya, is a virgo baby. Born September 1st, she has quickly grown into a world wide icon. At just 26 years old, she recently won her second Emmy award for her hit show Euphoria and became the youngest black woman to win twice in her category.  Huge congratulations to her! Sydney Sweeny, another breakout star from Euphoria, was born under the virgo sun. She too has proven that her attention to detail and strategic nature comes in handy when giving the performance of a lifetime. Prince Harry is a Virgo as well. As a prince, I am sure the pressure to be perfect weighs heavy on him, but luckily, as a virgo that comes naturally. Speaking of royalty, Beyonce, the queen herself is a virgo! Actor Keanu Reeves and actress Blake Lively were born under the Virgo sun as well. We told you you were bound for success! What a line up.

Lucky Numbers

Because Virgo is the sixth sign of the zodiac, naturally six is a luck number for those of you born during this period. Five and two are also very lucky for you, Virgo. Numbers are said to hold energy, so when you see these numbers appear in your life, know that they are bringing you positive energy for whatever situation you are in. When these numbers are duplicated, or repeated that only means their power is greater. Keep an eye out for these number signs and let us know what luck they bring you!

We hope your Virgo season was nice to you despite four of our planets being in retrograde this year. It’s almost over so hang in there and read our other blogs in the meantime!

Aries – The Entrepreneur

Aries – March 21 – April 20

Self-Confident and Charismatic

Aries. Your Tarot card is The Emperor, the guy who will always be there when you need him. Principled, Responsible, Get The Job Done, Attitude…but do it with fun. Aries is ruled by the fire planet and is filled with energy and a sense of adventure.  Not afraid or risks and very self-confident, many entrepreneurs find themselves born under the sign of Aries. The Emperor sitting on his ram engraved thrown, represents your sign’s loyalty and ability to stick by your friends through thick and thin.

Aries ~ Major Arcana Tarot Card is The Emperor.

storyteller Tarot - Aries The Emperor

This Emperor Says It All. He not only holds the key to his own destiny, but may very well own the key to yours.

Like the royal figure of The Emperor, you use your authority and analytical powers to help others and to achieve your goals mark the beginning of something energetic and turbulent. Its ruling planet is Mars which belongs to the element of fire. Aries is represented by the ram. In Greek mythology the ram was sacrificed to Zeus, who placed it in the heavens as the constellation. As known, each sign is associated with a Tarot card and in this case that card is The Emperor. It represents the person who will always be there when you need him. We need to befriend some Aries if we haven’t yet, don’t we? This card is the representation of your sign’s loyalty and the ability to stick by friends whatever hardship comes. As the royal figure on the card implies, you use your authority and analytical powers to achieve your goals and help others. As mentioned before, if you are looking for a friend who will stand by you no matter what, look for an Aries. How does Aries’s personality stand out from all of the other signs? They like to do things their way and Aries are highly action-oriented and competitive. They are unafraid of conflict, and they like to take risks. Their bravery is one of the most commendable traits they have, however it can cause them a lot of pain as well because of how they just throw themselves out in the world and let no fear in. Their passion, boldness, and confidence make our Aries so unique and very inspiring at the same time. Who would not want a friend who just says one day: “Let’s start the business we have been dreaming about since a young age.” Well, I know I do. As every human being, we have mistakes, so as Aries. They tend to be impulsive and impatient sometimes. And hot headed…But we know that comes from being bold and passionate. If an Aries says “I don’t care”, they actually mean it. No offense. They are prone to reckless risk-taking which could lead to some difficulties.

 

The Aries Minor Arcana Cards.
Minor Arcana Cards of The Tarot representing the Astrological sign of Aries.

Aries is represented in the Minor Arcana through the Wands, fire, adventure, charisma and action.

The Ram’s Head. Any time you see the head of a Ram on a Tarot card, you can be sure that Aries energy is present. The Queen of Wands, fertile, majestic, protected by nature and although the lion, or Leo, is depicted in her thrown, the energy of Aries is seen throughout the Queen of Wands.

The King of Pentacles is the Emperor of the Major Arcana and carries those same energies but to a lesser extent. The 2, 3, 4 of Wands represent the dreamer, the adventurer and the manifestation of family love, abundance and solid relationships. Love, Joy of Life, Charisma, Attraction, Loyalty, Stability, Fate Bound, Family Orientations; these are qualities that make Aries irresistible and trustworthy. These are how the Minor Arcana cards of Aries should be interpreted when they appear in a Tarot card reading.

Compatibility.  Aries in romantic relationships and friendships. They are most compatible with Libra because sometimes opposites attract each other, additionally with Sagittarius and Leo, the fellow fire signs who will be able to understand their passionate language. They are incompatible with Cancers because Cancers tend to take everything personally and as you read before, Aries have no filter. An Aries- Capricorn match could be challenging as well because Aries do not want to be restricted or restrained. 

 

Careers ~ Can You Say Entrepreneur.

Sam Walton - Founder WalmartMukesh Ambani, Richest Business Man in India.

What do Steve Balmer, Sam Walton and Larry Page have in common?  They are all Aries.  So is one of the richest men in the world, and certainly the richest in Asia, Mukesh Ambani.

With all of these “bossing up” skills they are natural leaders and will be successful running a business. Aries also make great doctors and surgeons. Any job where Aries can have authority, creativity and power will be a great fit. 

Celebrity Aries.

Are you as excited about the reunion of the Sex in the City stars? And just like that, our beloved icon, Sarah Jessica Parker is an Aries. It’s hard for me to put on a poker face when Lady Gaga is in the Aries family too. Since Aries has a lot of pride, I have to mention the movie Pride & Prejudice star Keira Knightley who is also an Aries celebrity…Elton John, Quentin Tarantino.  If we are talking about movies we should talk about theater too. Jonathan Groff, the best and funniest king in the Broadway hit Hamilton, is also an Aries.

SAGITTARIUS

Tarot Card Temperance representing SagittariousNovember 23 – December 21

Temperance

The Daughter of the Reconcilers, the Bringer Forth of Life”

     Did you know that Jupiter is your Ruling Planet Sagittarius? It is the largest planet in the solar system and the 5th planet out from the Sun. It is also the oldest of all of our planets, so it makes sense that you, my charming Sagittarius, come off as being wiser than your years.  Jupiter is what gives Sagittarius its sense of expansion, exploration, wisdom, practicality and leadership.

     Back in the Day, January of 1610, Jupiter was believed to be surrounded by four moons, Io, Callisto, Europa, Ganymede, known as the Galilean satellites after Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei who discovered them. Galileo first observed and noted these moons’ courses and their occurrences and made the mistake of sharing his findings publically. Why was that so bad.  Galileo’s observations gave birth to the Capernican theory, in that planets did not revolve around Earth, as believed by the Catholic Church, but a central Sun. During this error, the notion was considered to  be Heresy. Why? Because the church had preached that Man and Earth were the center of the universe and all things traveled around it. Poor Galileo, a true scientist and man of conviction, suffered for such a belief as he was convicted of heresy.  300 years later and a lifetime of house arrest for Galileo, the Catholic Church finally agreed with Galileo in that planets do travel around a central Sun rather than Earth and man being the center of the Universe. Jupiter, in its calm peaceful going about its business way was at the center of new knowledge, expansion of human understanding and created a pathway for new learning. Also, we now know that Jupiter has 79 moons. How about that?  You can now understand how Sagittarius came to be affiliated with expansion, new ideas, risk taking, adventure, conviction, seeing the big picture and being wisest of the signs.

     The Temperance card of the Tarot deck is a Major Arcana card and as a Major Arcana card was believed to be affiliated with the Gods.They are so very powerful in a Tarot Reading that they supersede Minor Arcana cards in setting the tone and energy of a reading.  If you look closely, you will note that the Temperance card depicts the holder of two cups who is constantly pouring one cup into another in an effort to keep both cups full, all things in balance and provide for all. With one foot in the water and one foot on land, Temperance is fully grounded and in touch with her emotions and the practical or the Earthly side of life. Her red wings are full of passion and fire as they are expanded and always at the ready to take in life or take flight. Behind her there is a gilded crown shimmering in the distant sky with a similar glow Sagittarius’s head giving the observer a sense that Temperance is but a Red-Winged Angel on loan to the world as a way to inspire us to bring balance into our lives.  Queen of Pentacles also carries Sagittarius Energy

Angelic in appearance and with the yellow irises in bloom and the fecundate richness of her lands, it is here where she is linked and appears as the Queen of Earth or Pentacles in the Tarot representing the practical, the grounded, the picture of abundance, fertility, healing and prosperity. She works calmly and methodically to keep all in balance and growing.

     Whether you are a Sagittarius or you know one, you probably see them (or yourself) as a person who brings about balance, creativity, fruitfulness, ideas and practical application. The high energy sign of Sagittarius with its charismatic personality can be irresistible and magnetic. Sags enjoy the attention but also like to maintain a steady pace; moving through life by keeping calm and level headed in even the most stressful situations. Let’s take a closer look at the characteristics of a Sagittarius.

     People born under the Sagittarius sun are loyal, smart, assertive, passionate, creative and compassionate. They are linked to humanity and all Earthly things and will sometimes appear as the Queen of Pentacles, fully-grounded, abundant, producer of fertility and self confident, as she sits elevated over her lands which she has grown over time and hard work and planning,  but not taking her focus off of her coin. This sign and this card, the Queen of Pentacles, look at the big picture in each situation and can easily understand multiple perspectives without losing her own. The Queen of Pentacles represents the loyal, true, focused, prolific and practical side of Sagittarius.

In the Toth Tarot, Sagittarius is coined “The Daughter of the Reconcilers, the Bringer Forth of Life.

     Where else can you look for Sagittarius in the Tarot?  Tarot Cards Representing Sagittarious in the Minor Arcana are various members of the Wands.With wings to take flight and swift action, Sagittarius is present in the House of Wands. Sags are represented in the fair, charismatic, wise and romantic, family focused King of Wands, the charging Knight of Wands, hard working load bearing Ten of Wands, the battle worn Nine of Wands and the fast moving Eight of Wands rushing in with messages and action. They do not parry from risk.  The friends you have who parachute out of planes, hike Mount Rainier or open up their own businesses may have Sagittarian energy in their chart. They have sharp business and sports-competitive mentalities combined with a sense of fairness and justice. The Ace of Wands represents great passion and new creative beginnings.  No matter what your sign or card, it is truly a gift from the Universe to see the Ace of Wands in your reading infusing your life with passion, creativity and the promise of abundance. These all can be interpreted as cards reflecting Sagittarius.

     With so many great strengths, weaknesses do prevail. Sags can be blunt. This could come in handy with their business-like attitude, but one must be careful not to let this characteristic go too far and hurt the feelings of friends, colleagues and family members.

Compatibility – Best Combinations For Sagittarius

    Sagittarius beings are most compatible with fellow fire signs Aries and Leo. Romantically or platonically, these signs create great bonds. Fire signs like inspiration and passion and together they can inspire each other.

  • Sagittarius and Aries: Together they can take on the world, because they are both adventurous, bold and optimistic.
  • Sagittarius and Leo: This pair is on fire (literally). Both signs are honest and caring. They both have a lot of passion for their relationships.  
  • Sagittarius and Aquarius: They both tend to be open with each other which makes the relationship full of curiosity and wonder. 

Careers 

     When it comes to careers that are the best fit for Sagittarius, the list is quite long. Sagittarius love adventure and to travel, so any job that is connected to traveling would be a great fit for them. It can be a travel agent, travel writer, anything where you are able to share your passion for traveling with others and you are able to help them achieve their dream vacation. If a zodiac sign was ever suited to be an entrepreneur, it is the Sagittarius. Sagittarius tend to have a lot of self confidence that comes handy when entering a risky business. You overcome the challenges with your positivity and would make an excellent CEO. We said that Sagittarius are business-minded people, didn’t we? While many people don’t like the idea of working in a sales-related field, Sagittarius excels in it! They are not scared to share their enthusiasm with others and they are good at marketing and selling their products. Marketing is something that Sagittarius have the trait for because they tend to have a strong influence on other people. Social media marketing is a field where they can thrive and actually make an impact on the community around them. 

Celebrities

     Anyone who is familiar with the sports world, most importantly the tennis world knows the legend Billie Jean King. She was born on November 22, 1943 which makes her a Sagittarius. Her birthplace is Long Beach, California and now she is 78 years old. She is a former No. 1 tennis player in the world, and she won 39 Grand Slam titles. She founded the Women’s Tennis Association and the Women’s Sports Foundation, and also became the owner of the World Tennis Team. As mentioned earlier, Sagittarius have strong business and sport mentalities. Billie Jean King not only was a legendary athlete, but she founded organizations that are thriving today. 

Your Number

     Each card in tarot is associated with a certain number. Temperance, which is the card of Sagittarius, is the 14th card in the tarot deck. The number 14 represents this Major Arcana card as well as its reduced form of five. But what do these numbers mean? The number 14 indicates a karmic situation where people must learn independence, unity and justice. 14 encourages creativity and adventure, but also sends warning that there might be some trouble along the way. At the stage five it is time to take stock, assess the competition and develop a plan for improvement. The vibration of the number five indicates that many changes are ahead and hopefully of your own making. In Tarot we consider these opportunities for growth and expansion.  It is our challenges that make us who we are, yes and our successes are those rewards of learning. But the challenge is what teaches us best.
