2019 Year of the Empress
As we leave the year of the High Priestess we start to walk out of the dark subconscious energy of spiritual development and into the light and nurturing energy of The Empress. The Empress is a card bursting with abundance and new life. Creativity will be off the charts this year and money should be more accessible. Expect women to make incredible strides this year, there is no stopping us when we stand together! Astrologically we are starting this year off in really good shape with absolutely no planets in Retrograde!

3 CARD REVEAL 10.10.18
For my friends that chose card #1 - You picked the 7 of Cups - This card is all about seeking spiritual fulfillment. Each cup before you offers an important aspect of a well rounded life, which cups will you choose to focus on? When this card comes up its asking you to figure out what is most important in your life. With this card always remember that things grow where your energy goes. This basically means that whatever cup you focus on in your life will be the area that shows growth, so chose wisely. Now is a time to review your progress so you can be sure you are on the right path. The cups are an intuitive suit so you probably already instinctively know the answers to a lot of these questions. TLDR: Its time to reflect on inner life and give yourself a little spiritual and emotional review.
For my fiends that chose card #2 - You picked the 9 of Swords - This card indicates a lot of worry and fear taking up your mental space. Its time to step back and rationalize some of those fears away! Are things really as bad as they seem? Is there a solution you just haven’t settled on yet? Do you know some that could help to take a load off? If your thoughts get away from you during this retrograde try grounding yourself or interrupting the thoughts that are not serving you. Its a funny thing that when you worry you often attract exactly what you don’t want to your door. So just like any other aspect of life take time to clean up your mental space so unnecessary fear or worries don’t cloud your mind. TLDR: Quit freaking out friend, some of the things you’re worried about are not even reality and others will not turn out to be nearly as bad as you imagine.
For my friends that chose card #3 - You picked the Ace of Pentacles - This card brings new and exciting financial opportunities your way! With calm, deliberate pacing you can accomplish almost any goal right now, no matter how far fetched it may seem. You have put in the work and the universe is going to deliver the rewards! This card is here to let you know that there are funds out in the universe to finance your dreams! Make sure that you are taking care of yourself physically too! You know what they say — your wealth is in your health! Keep your eye on the prize and you could really be making some money this month! This is a transit filled with practical magic if you will…TLDR: This Venus Retrograde is going to bless the shit out of you! Prepare yourself.
Until Next Time,
Chelsea

3 Card Reveal 9.17.18
Hello Friends! I know its been a while since we have done one of these and Im so excited for the amount of response I had on all my SM platforms! So lets jump into this reading!
For my friends that chose card #1 - You Picked The 8 of Swords - This card is all about realizing that all of your limitations are self imposed. The 8’s are always cards of strength. This Card implies that you can draw strength by listening to your inner voice. Money may be tight for you or you may be feeling restricted in your life right now - take time to still your mind and heed your inner voice and intuition about what to do and where to go from here. TLDR Shut the F up and listen to what spirit is trying to tell you right now, your ego doesn’t always know best.
For my friends that chose card #2 - You picked Strength - This card is all about mental and emotional courage! Its about cultivating your strength through trust and belief in yourself. When this card shows up its a reminder that its just as important to nourish your spiritual body as it is to nourish your physical body. This card is also encouraging you to harness your passions and use your mind to direct energy to accomplish your creative goals in life. Take a note from the Leo’s this card was made after and face life with the necessary self-confidence to reach your desired goals. TLDR Confidence will get you everywhere in life - stop being modest and work what you got!
For my friends that chose card #3 - You picked the 8 of Pentacles - This card is all about understanding that the physical work you do also has spiritual significance. As you master your skills you are also improving your discipline and your ability to translate ideas into physical form. This card demands commitment and focus on the task at hand. This will allow you to reach long term goals no matter how impossible they might seem from where you’re standing. if you focus on the problems they will grow, if you focus on finding solutions they will become visible to you. TLDR Focus is powerful, whatever you direct it at will grow. Choose wisely.
Overall I think its interesting that ALL 3 CARDS were 8s! Whoa! Its also worth noting that these three cards represent Spiritual Strength, Mental Strength and Physical Strength. The 8s in general show us displaying our strengths. The strengths vary in each suit but there is a definite underlying theme!
Until our next reading

Full Moon in Pisces + Tarot Spread
take time to Heal yourself the rest will come
There is no doubt that we will see some waves of emotion breaking over this Full Moon in Pisces. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac. It brings up themes concerning spirituality, self care and learning to go with the flow of life and death in this dimension. The Solar Eclipse in Leo we had in August (that we are all still recovering from) was very much about being generous with other people in our lives, leaving us with very juice little left in our spiritual cups. This Full Moon in Pisces while emotional, will also be incredibly healing. Pisces energy in general is like a soothing balm for the soul of any tired traveler. No one will distract you from your woes like Pisces. No one can help you let go better than Pisces, so take advantage of what this fishy Full Moon is offering. Full Moons are always about completing a cycle. What toxins do you need to release from your life right now?
This is also going to be an optimal time for self care. With the Sun in Virgo, cleaning and organizing your life in all ways imaginable is recommended, don’t forget to cleanse your spirit too! I’m talking salt baths, oils, potions, books, naps, hair appointments, meditation, readings, yoga, quality time with loved ones.. literally whatever it takes to fill your own cup.
Take stock of where you are in life. This summer has been a whirlwind of scattered energy and its now time to lay out the facts and see how we measure up. Don’t be too harsh on yourself if you aren’t where you thought you would be (none of us are) and instead bring gratitude into your situation wherever possible.
This Full Moon will open up the internal lines of communication so you can identify clearly where you are and make plans to move towards where you want to go. This is the calm before the storm, your opportunity to prepare for the inevitable action you will have to take.
Heres my Full Moon Spread for you guys! CHEERS!
Full Moon in Libra + Tarot Spread
“One of the most courageous decisions youll ever make is to finally let go of what is hurting your heart and soul”
Thank you guys for being patient with my absence. I appreciate all the love, encouragement and support I've received during this vulnerable time! Lets get back on track with a Full Moon Forecast and Tarot Spread, shall we?
This Full Moon is going to bring with it the struggle between meeting your own needs and meeting the needs of those around you. There is an opposition between the Full Moon in Libra and the Sun in Aries. Libra represents partnerships, relationships, and one on one interactions, while Aries rules over the self, individuality and internal affairs. The key to this Full Moon energy is to find balance! A balance between meeting your own needs, while still being compassionate and kind to others in your life. Don't forget, kindness is free and it is never the wrong approach.
We also have ever expanding Jupiter in Libra cozying up to the Full Moon in the 7th house and erratic Uranus in Aries gearing up with the Sun in the 1st house. This opposition gives off a feeling of Light vs Dark or Us vs Them. We have to rise above this vibration because with Pluto in Capricorn bringing up a T-square to this transit things can get ugly fast. When Pluto is in this square it can sometimes signify losing your humanity and compassion for other people and that is not the answer that will bring healing and resolution to any situation.
The 7th house which is hosting both the Full Moon and Jupiter in Libra right now is also known as The Mirror House. Through our relationships, we are shown our own faults, limitations, and downfalls. It is important that we take that information into our own psyche and not try to tell other people how to live their lives. People are where they are and when they want to be somewhere else, they will move. Instead of trying to lead other people out of their personal darkness, focus on yourself and work to clean up your own life and bad habits!
In the 12th House, we have Venus is retrograde in Pisces right next to Chiron in Pisces. That sentence may not mean a lot to someone who doesn't study the stars, but what it comes down to is reliving old wounds. Childhood wounds - sure, but I'm talking much older than that. I'm talking about the karmic baggage that you have been dragging along with you for lifetimes. It's time to let that shit go. It's time to move in a new direction. It's time to free yourself from the burdens of your past. This aspect really allows you to dive into work revolving around your inner child that can lead to serious breakthroughs and progress.
Why did you choose this particular life path? Why did you choose that mate? Why did you choose that family member? Why did you choose that baby daddy? I would guess it was because it/they had a very important karmic lesson to teach you, are you getting it? Take the time to do some self-reflection about your role in your relationships and your relationship with yourself. Something big is trying to break through for you, as my mom would say, “if you're tired of waiting, raise your vibration”.
Here is a Full Moon Spread to get you guys on track!
