December 2023
The Emperor: You are stepping into your power and confidence in a whole new way this month. Instead of planning and learning and practicing, you are realizing the only real way to uplevel is to take action. You do not need to push your newfound confidence in anyone else’s face, but it’s also important to remind yourself that you are not responsible for other people’s insecurities. A.K.A if someone is upset by your self-prioritization, that’s a “them” problem, not a “you” problem.
November 2023
Four of Wands: The month of November is going to bless you with an experience that registers in your mind as a core memory. You will spend time in November with great people, doing exactly what your heart yearns for most: connecting. Give yourself the grace to make mistakes, sound silly, be silly, or do what feels right for you. There is no rule book to a true, heartfelt connection with someone else. Instead of worrying about how you sound or if you’re making the right impression, instead, let yourself change the narrative and start to approach new topics and experiences with a sense of excitement rather than fear or insecurity. When you start to loosen up, you’ll realize that you’ve built enough trust within yourself to navigate through unknown experiences, and that will be a newfound strength that you can apply to any situation! Bravo, Cancer. You’ve done a great job at becoming the person you’ve always dreamt of being.
October 2023
Ace of Pentacles: Cancer, this month will be filled to the brim with new opportunities and financial abundance for you to enjoy. There is an air of upgrading in your career and finances that you have been waiting for. However, this does not come unless you advocate for yourself. It will be imperative that you strike while the iron is hot, and take advantage of how much you are needed in your workplace as a motive to be adequately paid and recognized. The Ace of Pentacles is a powerful sign that you’re on the brink of a positive change in your material world. Whether this comes in the form of a new job, an unexpected financial windfall, or a chance for you to invest in something valuable, seize the moment! This month is full of land mines that will explode money and opportunity into the sky for you. All of your past efforts to create stability and security are now paying off because you are stepping into a chapter of your life where you have chosen to acknowledge your own self-worth. You do not need the validation of others or the comforts of your past in order to thrive, Cancer. Instead, focus this month on new pathways forward, and don’t be afraid to set ambitious financial goals for yourself. This month is a time to plant seeds for long-term prosperity. Budget, invest, request, and receive. Use October as a fresh start and make the most of the opportunities that are coming your way, my crabs!
September 2023
The Sun: Cancer, with the Sun card appearing, it seems life is going to feel like a fairytale in September. This card, deemed one of the most positive in all of the tarot, is here to signal that the storm has passed. Was there something you were worried about that turned out to be very positive for you instead? That should act as a reminder that stress is not a prerequisite. In other words, you’re not required to go into downward spirals each time a new or challenging situation arrives.
Instead, use the month of September to test this theory. Try to keep your calm in the face of adversity and watch how much better and brighter the alternative is for you. This will be especially important around the Jupiter retrograde in Taurus that arrives on the 4th and lights up your 10th house of career and reputation. You are not your career, and your career is not you. When you let go of trying to control the outcome, the universe has a tendency of allowing even better outcomes to head your way. So trust is key this month. Everything else is already going exceptionally well once you surrender.
August 2023
King of Pentacles: Dearest Cancer, I see you being offered an opportunity that is beyond your wildest dreams in August. This could be something that increases your sense of self or a financial or career blessing. Either way, any time we see the King of Pentacles, it signals a new chapter in your sense of stability and self-assuredness.
