Featured Tarot Deck: Brady Tarot
Some notable dates this month include:
Full Moon in Pisces: September 1st
New Moon in Virgo: September 17th
Aries: Mar 21 – Apr 20
Finality or the 10 of arrows is an extremely gruesome-looking card. The image suggests that during this month some things may come to an end in a final and painful way. Remember that much like the death card thing is coming to an end usually opens doors for a brighter future. But be kind to yourself during this time of healing because although doors may be opening for a brighter future that doesn’t validate the fact that the pain you’re experiencing the present is real. Be patient with yourself you will get through it and you will heal even if it hurts for some time.
My biggest advice to you this month Aries would be to take some time to focus on self-care and allowing yourself to really feel the pain that you’re going through. Not because you deserve some kind of flogging but because when we really feel the pain we can really heal.
Taurus: April 21- May 21
Well, Taurus the seven of cups is often indicative of being overwhelmed with choice. I pray this card is one of having many options before you all of which are good and it’s just up to you to pick what you want. But in reverse we find us this choice becoming overwhelming to the point of not being able to make a decision and struggling to function. Remember the biggest decisions do not need to be made in the day. Nor should you ever be forced to make a major choice at the drop of the hat.
When we get this card in reading it typically suggests that there is no rush to make a decision however you internalize a rush that isn’t there. Give yourself a break, and allow yourself to make big choices on your own time. Life isn’t a race and neither is September.
Gemini: May 22- June 21
We love to see the eight of wands Germini! The eight of wands suggest rapid growth in forwarding projection. This is a card that often as a catalyst card when paired with other great news. As a standalone, we look at it. The expectancy of positive news coming your way this month. Do you expect it to be sudden and with that rush of good news comes the growth of equal measure to the whirlwind nature! Sometimes this card can denote travel, however, due to the nature of the pandemic I find it unlikely that you may be traveling this month Gemini. However, maybe you are living in the Americas and maybe you do have more free range to go on a little holiday. In which case I am envious of you, and remember even if you do go somewhere please wear a mask.
Cancer: June 22- July 22
The name of cups reversed or in this case the nine horns reverse is typically indicative of the grass being greener on the other side. However, when you get to the other side you realize that the grass has just as many brown patches like the one you had at home. Sometimes things aren’t as good as they seem to be, end it leaves us with the feeling of being incredibly unsettled and unhappy with what we have and the choices we’ve made. Remember that we can make new choices to redirect our path but to be able to get there we have to be able to accept the fact that we made it all thought out choices to learn from them and move forward. Otherwise will be stuck in a cycle of them fulfillment always looking for a quick fix.
If you are feeling unsatisfied this month, take a moment to reflect on if your desires are tangible or unrealistic. You may find that your pie in the sky ideas are reachable but in a timeframe that may be more realistic.
Leo: July 23- August 23
The nine of pentacles is a very cozy life, Leo. If you had any personal financial matters that have gotten you down in the month of September you can look forward to that slowly progressing to a point of being comfortable. Although by no means am I trying to suggest that you’re going to go win the lottery, you may find yourself getting small opportunities that lead you to have a more comfortable start to your autumn.
The downside of this card is that although your life may be feeling a little bit more comfortable with that can come with some restrictions. The nine of pentacles is a bit of a kept woman although her life is comfortable she’s also kept within the confines of her castle. Make sure you focus on grounding this month so that way you don’t go crazy in your own castle.
Virgo: August 24- September 22
Well, Virgo, last month’s positive news comes with this month’s personal setbacks. The six of wands although still, a victorious card shows us mob mentality. With great success comes great leeches- think of it like winning the lottery suddenly family members come out of the woodwork and remember that you owe them that $500 from 20 years ago. The six of wands versus very similar to that although you’ve got this amazing success happening for you people suddenly want to take advantage of that. Remember that no matter who these people are to you setting firm boundaries and saying no for your own well-being is never a bad thing. You don’t owe anybody anything after your own accomplishments especially if they are demanding it. Boundaries are everything.
Libra: September 23- October 23
Well Libra, this is a great month for budding relationships both platonic and romantic. The thing on the tube cup says it’s a very pure potential card so the new relationships have the potential to be lifelong or brief. It is a card of reminding us to reflect on our past relationships in our own personal shortcomings I have come with that. If we are able to do this, the doors will open up, and that potential for a lifelong companionship as possible. However, if we make no personal growth or self-reflection you may find yourself with a friendship that doesn’t last very long.
This card also suggests that during the month of September Libra, it’s a very prime time for you to keep your eyes open for a perfect partner. And although this card speaks of self-reflection, it also speaks to not settle for less than you’re worth. Remember that just because we’ve made mistakes in the past does not mean we’re not worthy of a partner who will treat you like gold.
Scorpio: October 24- November 22
The month of September Scorpio is going to be one where branching out, and experimenting with wild ideas might not be for you. The Hierophant although an incredibly intelligent and reliable card is also one of being a bit conservative and sticks into the traditions that we are very comfortable with. This isn’t a suggestion that you should go join the church that you grew up in, but it does suggest that the community you have currently in your life, is one to lean on.
If you’re currently involved in any kind of spiritual or religious community even if you don’t always understand them, it’s good to try to learn from them. Even their mistakes. Communities are wonderful things to lean on and sometimes it’s hard to not lose your sense of individuality, so though you may not want to branch out and try anything crazy this month do you live on those around you for support.
Sagittarius: November 23- December 21
Seven of Wands can indicate a feeling that everyone is against you. That you are up against people that you care about and value very deeply. There is a feeling of fighting and defending ourselves with this card even if that might not be the actual reality. Remember that even if you feel like the underdog in a situation that doesn’t mean that you have to use your last breath defending your opinion. It isn’t that your opinion is invalid or wrong, but some arguments aren’t worth the energy to have.
That being said this feeling that everyone is against you although may be entirely valid, be mindful that you don’t unnecessarily attack someone because you’ve got your back up and are on the defense. Sometimes our feelings are more allusion than they are a reality, so just be mindful to pause before reacting.
Capricorn: December 22- January 20
The Six of Pentacles aptly called altruism in this deck’s interpretation, is a card of giving and receiving. This is a card being charitable to those who could use help in a way that is affordable to you. By that I mean being altruistic can come in many forms it doesn’t always have to come as a financial give. Sometimes helping others simply comes in the form of being a shoulder to lean on or emotional support for somebody who you are not friends with.
In most cases, the six of pentacles as one of material success been given to others. You are likely the giver, not a receiver this month. Which is incredible but make sure that you aren’t putting your self in financial danger by helping others. This card does arenas the good karma results from such a good deed as giving to those who need it. But be aware that if you’re only giving because you think that will result in good karma then it’s not really a good deed
Aquarius: January 21- February 18
Although this is a heavily gruesome card, defeat does not necessarily mean it is a death. Sometimes defeat comes in the form of knowing that we can’t win. It’s choosing to not fight anymore. There is a sort of honor in knowing your enemy has bested you, so allowing yourself the space to walk away not not charge into an unwinnable fight. Although perhaps not something that in the battlefield would be honorable, in life, there is dignity to it.
You may just want to throw down your swords and walk away from something. You may have not realized that you needed to walk away from the beginning, but there comes a breaking point. You may have reached a breaking point where you just don’t want to fight anymore.
Pisces: February 19- March 20
Well Pisces, the Three of Swords in reverse it is so much more positive than it’s upright self. This is a card of healing from heartbreak and loss. You may have found yourself in a place, recently that really tore you up on the inside. Upright this card is one of emotional heartbreak and loss which can stand from anything romantic loss, all the way to mundane heartbreak. Heartbreak is heartbreak no matter what form it takes. So when we see this card in reverse it’s a ray of sunshine and things are going to start getting better in the hurt you felt recently is going to start to heal. It doesn’t mean the pain is going to go away but it does mean that there is a degree of optimism to look forward to.
