Pick a Card Reading for New Moon in Libra October 2021
Akamara Tarot
As always, please take some deep breaths before choosing the stone that resonates with you. The messages that follow are timeless as well but are most powerful during New Moon phases, where we initiate things that we want to grow. The Mercury Retrograde has been quite the challenging one, but the energy I have been feeling from it is one of transformation (maybe because I’m Mercury ruled). Use this general discomfort to guide you out of the situations that you no longer want to be in. Be in flow.
Green Aventurine - Onija Cowrie
The green aventurine group’s message for the New Moon is one of contemplation, action, and patience. This group needs to hear that the way to go is steady and slow. At times, it can be difficult to understand how the work that is being done today may benefit us in the future. But it’s important to know that the routines, the tedious work, the painstaking sacrifices, all lead to greatness down the road. This group has been grappling with the difficult reality that the dreams they have set forth are not actualizing yet. And it appears that they may never. But please understand that you are on the precipice of greatness! Just around the corner is the actualization of your dreams. But you have to stick it through to get there. Don’t quit while you’re ahead. Power through instead! Trust that you have been calculating your moves correctly, and if you have been in doubt, let this New Moon message snap you back into reality. These dreams may be financial/related to your career or in establishing something concrete in your life like an investment in a property or other financial investments. Trust in the process.
Lapis Lazuli - Omo Cutlass
The lapis lazuli group is in some serious need of generating and maintaining boundaries, both in professional and personal relationships. However, the biggest message here is about boundaries with yourself. How can you expect to move forward in your life and demand respect from others when you cannot respect your body? There’s a big message here about self-betrayal which is another branch of self-harm. Take a hard look at your life up to this moment. Where have you been lacking in honoring yourself with the people you maybe allow to enter your space? With the people you allow to have pieces of you? The ways you allow yourself to not be heard and instead submit to the ways of other people? It’s time to take charge of the way you want to be treated. And the best way to do that is with yourself. So, if you are going to get that dream job or achieve said goal, you’re going to have to make some sacrifices and stick to the deadline/routine. Trust that this goes a long way in the end. It is absolutely scary at first, but the scariest step is beginning. Once it becomes a habit, it will be easier to stick by the commitments you make to yourself and others. Also, it’s important to give yourself grace. What you know today is not what you knew yesterday, and it’s not what you knew 5, 10, 15 years ago. Forgive yourself for the mistakes you made in the past and invite grace to help you live life peacefully now.
Red Carnelian - 4 of Calabash
The red carnelian group’s new moon message is all about snapping out of this apathetic moment. It might be difficult to do so, but you need to hear this. Your aspirations and goals are on the other side of getting up and doing the work. Many of you have simply been feeling uninspired. And it’s important to name that. But once you do, you have to make the efforts to get up and do something about where you want to go. You’ve had your time to sulk in the grief or shame that has been associated with your life up until this moment. And now it’s time to commit more time to joy and love. There are blessings within you and around you that are just above the dark cloud that has been sitting over you for the past few months, weeks, days. Let’s start small when walking out of this. It can be as simple as changing one aspect of your morning routine. It may even be just waking up in the morning for once! Whatever it is, commit to it so that you can birth the you that is present underneath all the things people have thrown onto you. Freedom is on the other side of fear, and while it may be scary to step out of that which is comfortable, it is absolutely worth it in the end.

Pick a Card Reading
Black and Gold Rider Waite Smith Deck
As always, take a few deep breaths before choosing. This message is coming after a very eventful Full Moon on Monday and Equinox yesterday.
Chevron Amethyst - The Empress
The Chevron Amethyst group’s message for this week is to tap into the abundance of ideas and goals that are currently on your mind. Right now, all that you touch has the opportunity to grow and expand. This includes the thoughts you have been harboring about yourself and your situation. Are you planting positive seeds? Or ones that will lead to your ultimate destruction? Take inventory of that and focus on correction. For this group, the divine feminine is guiding you loud and clear. Think about the ways that you can assert yourself and your boundaries in a compassionate way. What does that look like for you? This group is surrounded by newness and that requires some level of removing that which no longer serves. How can you move beyond those limiting beliefs this week? This is the task for you, and one that will be challenging and rewarding. The maternal ancestral lineage of those in this group are providing messages to you as well. Be sure to listen, including in the “mundane” conversations that you may be participating in. Pay attention to how spirit moves through the ordinary.
Indigo Gabbro - 6 of Swords
The Indigo Gabbro group’s message is one of overcoming, of moving on and away from the difficulties that have been plaguing you all for what seems like the past few weeks. The individuals in this group need to know that through hardship and discomfort come great transformation and elevation. And this is especially the case when you are able to incorporate the messages and lessons into your day-to-day activities and methods of living. The storm has passed for many of you, or the storm is ending this week. You are headed to a side of calm but with a lingering mental toll. Take the time to rest. Take that trip that you have been talking about. Book the flight, get on that hiking trail, hop on that bus, train, etc. It’s beneficial for those in this group to physically remove themselves from the environment that is causing them mental anguish and hardship. There is a need for you all to engage in some sort of self-empowerment practice. This helps you be reminded that you are the ultimate driver of your life, and although sometimes we have to take breaks and maybe sit in the passenger seat, we ultimately must continue steering ourselves to where we need to go. Make sure, wherever you are or find yourself, that you are in a position where those around you RESPECT the choices you make for yourself.
Clear Quartz - The Lovers
The Clear Quartz group’s message is all about balance, movement, and choices. Those of you that have chosen this card have had to contend with some very difficult choices as of late. The card in this week’s message is about sacrifice. Many of you have had to recalibrate your lives in order to address the things that were causing disharmony. Many of you have had to contend with losing something in order to gain another. And it appears that this was brought upon you seemingly out of your direct control. Trust and honor the guides who surround you and the Divine within you that has presented this situation upon you. Many of you have been contending with what it means to be content and in balance with your internal and external world. That which makes your soul smile and that which looks good on paper. You have to continue to make a decision this week on what it is that brings you actual joy and what is simply there to distract or numb you from a reality that you don’t enjoy. Honor the divine in you by stepping into radical self-acceptance. Own the aspects of you that are both light and dark. One cannot exist without the other. Invite the energy of compassion, forgiveness, and acceptance into your body. Allow them to walk alongside you on your life’s journey.

Pick a Card for Week
Briscas
As always, take a deep breath and focus your intuition on choosing the stone that will bring you the most relevant message. Always go with your FIRST choice.
Clear Quartz - As de Bastos
The clear quartz group’s message for this week is all about initiation and endings. The message for this week is to start, whatever it is you have planned by first letting go. There are lots of people around you that are not being completely honest with you it seems. And it many of these relationships, you’ve been feeling the urge to let go and move on. However, you have not been able to do so. The card for this week aligns with the energy of action, to move beyond deceit into the light of truth. Perhaps the deceitful one is yourself, as you have been lying to yourself about how you truly feel and have thus hindered your own progress. It’s time to let go of shame in speaking your truth. Embody that which is reality, not what is perceived reality. And pray for the wisdom to know the difference. Take a look at the areas of your life that you are half-assing and ask yourself why? Who or what allowed you to do this? And is it work keeping this person/thing/habit around? Only you, when you step into the light of truth, can answer these questions. Expect that to be in your face this week.
Blue Kyanite - Rey de Copas
The blue kyanite group’s message for this week embodies the abilities and capabilities you have for all of the challenges you face in your life. However, this card shows us that this group isn’t feeling too confident in their skills and decision-making. Examine the areas in your life where you are unable to be decisive. Take a closer look at the emotion beneath the actions or lack thereof. This group has to reconcile with feeling fully versus intellectualizing your feelings. It feels as if you’ve been floating between being here and being elsewhere both mentally and emotionally. This week, take the chance to ground yourself. Root yourself in your body by really feeling what it is that lies beneath the surface. In a safe space, allow yourself to unwind, letting go of the tight grip you have on your emotions. You don’t always have to have it put together. It is okay to break down sometimes. From the breakdown, you are able to build back up an evens stronger foundation. But you cannot see the cracks in the current one if you don’t go down to the basement and check. Don’t be afraid to dive deep.
Moss Agate - 4 de Oro
The moss agate group’s message is about allowing yourself the opportunity to receive. This group is filled with people who are givers, who are unafraid to offer their arm or leg for the people they love and care about. However, many of you can find it difficult to receive support as well. This sort of hyper-independence leads you to a place where you are guarded and it can be exhausting. This week, the opportunity of someone gifting you something is high. Make sure you accept it. It is important to understand that life is about exchange. We all give and take from each other. Allow yourself to receive blessings, just as much as you give them. Take a moment to reflect on why you may not believe you are worthy of such gifts and support. Who told you that first? Why do you believe that? How can you adjust that belief so that little by little you are able to receive that which you deserve. Money is on the mind of the people in this group this week. Be conscientious of the ways in which you give and receive money as well. Maybe it’s time to make that budget or calculate those monthly expenses.

Pick a Card for the New Moon in Virgo
Thoth Tarot
As always, before choosing your card, take some breaths and allow your intuition to be your guide. Tap into your inner-knowing and go with your FIRST choice.
Clear Quartz - Prince of Disks
The card for this group calls upon the energies of perseverance, strength, and willpower. The Prince of Disks for the clear quartz group represents an archetype of being that should be adopted to achieve your goals. This group has been feeling a bit stuck in the ways of their life, they are feeling as if their circumstances are unchanging and they are eager to begin a new life. To do so, this card is calling upon you to be creative in your approach to obstacles. Use your mind and your patience to strike at the right moment. Slow and steady wins this race. However, this card is also calling you to be more stubborn in your boundaries that you set with others. This structured routine of ensuring that there is mutual respect amongst those you love and those who love you is of utmost importance. This is what makes the difference between achieving your goals rather than thinking about them. This week provides you more contemplating and planning. Do everything with intention.
Amethyst - Knight of Swords
The card for this group calls upon the energy of intellect and going right for it! The energy of this New Moon calls upon you to assess the thoughts you’ve been having regarding this situation that you are thinking about. For some time, you haven’t had the energy to act on what has been bothering you. However, this is quickly changing. In fact, this week may provide you with an opportunity to move full-steam ahead. Be sure that you are at peace with the possible outcomes of your decision. Do not act in haste. Instead, act with as much logic as possible. This card calls upon you to tap into your inner fierceness, your inner fire that ignites passion within you. Take time to honor your hobbies this week. Locate the things and habits and people that spark joy in your life and get rid of all the rest. Tap into your inner royalty and make decisions for yourself that honor the fullness of your humanity.
Labradorite - Queen of Wands
The card for this group calls of the energy of pure greatness. Those who have chosen this card this week need to know that in your entirety, you are perfect. It does not matter what people say about you, what people feed into your ear, you know that you are exactly where you need to be and exactly who you are. That inner knowing is what you are to tap into this week. Understand that you are regal in nature. Step into and honor that. Honor the power of your voice and the manifestations you have uttered to be in your life. If there is ever a chance to act on something you know to be true, it is now. Tap into manifestation power this New Moon to bring energy and light to new projects, inspirations, and hobbies. This is the week to START the thing you’ve been putting off for months.

Card of the Week:
Angels and Ancestors Oracle Cards
This week’s message is a powerful one indeed. This card flew out of my deck with the quickness, especially when I asked what can inspire the Elephant Mystic collective to bring about the most healing. The overarching message of this card for this week is choosing which battles to fight and which to let pass, choosing the self over losing it all, and embracing the energy of peace in your life.  The battles foretold in this card are not necessarily the ones that are physically present and aggressive (although I know people are out there trying us). Rather, this card talks about the mental battles that have been taking place for what seems like months, maybe even this whole past year.  It talks about surrendering to the divine in times when you feel you can no longer. This card reminds us that we are safe. That we do not need to constantly defend our actions, our beliefs, our methods. Sometimes these things will only make sense to us, and that is okay (as long as we are not causing harm to others). There is harmony on the horizon. Many of you have been having quarrels within your close circles perhaps within your families. Those are ending now. Embrace community as it arrives. Understand that community work, building community, running a family is not all cake and lollipops. Instead, it is dirty, messy, and can be dramatic. But ultimately, it is what keeps us safe. It is what brings us the most change. It is what transforms us. Embrace serenity now as this week shows you the brighter side of unity. You are protected. Your peace is protected.

The card for this week talks about the pains of growing and changing and moving. The three of wands talks about taking in the vastness of opportunity that is before you, and planning/taking your next voyage to self-discovery. For many of you, this week may be a week of physical travel. You are embarking on a journey that honors your greatest desires and perhaps your greatest fears. The fear in this card is the fear of your greatest potential. It’s time to take that leap of faith. It’s time to commit to that action you’ve been putting off for weeks even months now. It’s time to ACT on the transformation that is before you, with fervor, with virtue, and with zealous. Look at how far you have gotten in the past few months. Even if they haven’t been “beautiful” or “great”, the time that has progressed has brought you to this moment, and for many of you, you are met with new horizons. Honor the exploring aspects of your spirit. Commit to movement, to change, and to moving on from the habits, people, places, things that are not supporting you in your journey to your highest destiny and purpose.  Above all, this card asks us to have hope in the positivity of change.  As an aside, the moment I pulled this card, I heard the song, “I Hate this Part” by the Pussycat Dolls in my head so this is telling me that for many of you, it’s really time to let these things go that are limiting you. And although it sucks and you’re going to hate the process, the end result is well, well worth it.

Card of the Week: 4 of Cowrie
Akamara Tarot
The card for this week speaks about the very foundation of your being and the challenges associated with that.  For many of us, this summertime has been filled with opportunities to splurge, the live life like we just survived a global pandemic (which is still on-going I might add).  And that may be a good thing because it allows us to tend to the social needs of being a human in this lifetime. However, outside is EXPENSIVE. And it’s clear for many of us this week that we may be at a financial tipping point. Many of us will have to decide this week whether we wish to continue the path towards financial ruin or financial success. This week, you are being tasked with learning how to have financial freedom without being overly stingy, overly possessive over money and material things. Tap into the flow of abundance this week, save your coin, bless it, pray over it, and save it. Spend with the belief in mind that money comes as it flows. While this card is symbolically representative of money or financial matters, think about the ways in which you may be stingy with love or with trust. Perhaps there are areas in your life or people that need you to give in a little bit more love, that perhaps need you to give in a little more trust. Perhaps it’s even time to lend yourself some of that love and trust. Quit being stingy with those emotions and let them flow even for those you may not think “deserve” it. It can probably make all the difference.

Card of the Week: Silver Wolf The Native Heart Healing Oracle The card for this week calls upon the divine feminine to be anchored into your being. As time moves forward, we as a collective are embracing the divine feminine. As the Earth’s overall vibration is shifting, we are collectively moving forward from a masculine-“mental” world into a feminine “feeling” one. This card is a calling to step into your emotions a bit more, attempt not to intellectualize how you feel, and rather just feel. Allow the emotions to run their course, to process through you and out.  Allow your heart to be your guide, allow your feelings to remind you of the beauty of the human experience. Honor those feelings. Filter your thoughts through your heart space and allow your higher self to connect with your heart. Through this, you are able to unlock many of the mysteries of this life. Decolonize your spirituality by not always seeking a “right” answer for anything. There is value to all possibilities. Be gentle with yourself this week as you integrate new ways of living intuitively. Call upon your honorable, feminine/fem ancestors. Offer them light and libations, honor them and the path they paved for you to be here, and allow them to integrate the warm fire of the divine feminine into your heart. This week may bring about lessons from the mother lineage in your family. Pay close attention to the stories you hear and the lessons you learn from femme/womxn family members as well.

Card of the week: 7 of Cups Rider Waite Smith Black and Gold Edition The card for this week calls us to pay close attention to the message between the lines, to look past the illusion set forth, and to perhaps hold out for something solidified in reality than in dreams. This week looks like there are going to be presentations to us of things that are too good to be true, and indeed they are. This week brings us a test of whether our judgment is good, whether our decisions are sound, and whether or not we are rooted firmly in our value systems. You are being tasked with looking beyond the good of people and situations at times. Perhaps it’s the time to think more critically, to use logic over emotion. Look at the areas in your life where emotional reactions are running the show, where ego may be running the show. Insert some logic there and then focus on the correct decision to make.  This is particularly true if there are some big life choices you’re making. Perhaps this is not the time to act but rather a time to reflect. What is it that you truly want? Are you ever going to get there living the life you’re currently living? If not, what are some concrete ways you can change, even if it’s small, to help you achieve your goals and your biggest dreams? These are some guiding questions for us this week.

Card of the week: Page of Wands
Black and Gold Edition Rider Waite Smith
The card for this week signifies the arrival of some much-needed change in your life. Whether you welcome in a new habit or receive some news regarding something you’ve been waiting on, this week provides us with a chance to take a leap of faith in the direction necessary for our own personal journey. This card asks us to be curious. It asks us to never be satiated with the mundane and with what we have now. Exploration is key to our own personal growth. The journey to self-mastery is one that occurs daily. Many of you are looking forward to the future, to new ventures and possibilities. This card signifies those opportunities presenting themselves to you i.e., take that trip, dump that person, apply for that job/program/school, etc. This card also comes as a wake-up call to those of us that have felt that we have lost our way; for those of us who feel as though we have lost that child-like wonder and fantasy. It’s time to reinvigorate your imagination, specifically the way we imagine ourselves in our greatest form. Tap into that curiosity again, reflect on the things that brought you joy as a child and perhaps act on some of those desires. Feed and nourish your inner child so that you can take on the day with resolve, flexibility, and inquisitiveness.

Card of the Week: 3 of Cups
Rider Waite Smith Tarot
The card for this week reminds us that we have accomplished so much in our lives and that it is important too to celebrate the little things. Stop comparing your path towards your own success to the path of others. As humans, we are each on our own journeys towards our own illumination. It’s time to step away from negative and harsh self-critique and to move towards gratitude. There is much to be grateful for in our lives. The mere reality of living, of having breath, of having choice and being conscious is something to not take for granted. Focus on your little wins too. The energies of the past few weeks have been filled with turbulence, change, and emotional mood swings. It’s time to refocus, to stay rooted in the values and goals that you have within you, that make you who you are. Look back at yourself fondly and with compassion.  Healing the self relies on paying attention to the ways in which you have overcome adversity, especially in the times and moments when you may have caused disturbance to others and yourself. Continue striving towards that better version of yourself each day. Stay aligned with that purpose and if you’re unaware of what that purpose is, it’s time to start looking. Most importantly of all, allow yourself happiness, celebration, and relaxation.

Muertos
Akamara Tarot
The card of this moment in time is ensuring us all that there will be things that are out of our immediate control. There are karmic cycles that are part of the fabric in which we incarnated and until we reach a point of critical self-reflection, we are fallen into the inevitable. For many of you, this card represents the upheaval that is occurring in your life. Perhaps relationships with folks have dramatically ended, or cycles of abuse, toxicity, and habits that are no longer beneficial, have come to the breaking point. You are left with an inventory of your life up until this moment. And in this moment of self-reflection, you become the narrator you always were, dictating the following steps in your life. Many of you are dealing with loss. You are coming to terms with this new version of life that perhaps you couldn’t fully imagine. Understand the power you have in this moment. Recognize that the healing journey is one that takes time, one that cannot be rushed, and one that is not entirely pretty. However, it is one that elevates you. The journey teaches you more about yourself, it delivers you to a place of self-mastery- as long as you are flowing with the current. This is a moment of surrender; of recognizing that you are not in control. That you are indeed a droplet of water in the river that is flowing past each obstacle. When moments get too tough to bear, remember the analogy of the river and remind yourself to flow like water.

Card of the Week: Ten of Cane 
Akamara Tarot 
This card talks about those of us who are finding ourselves overburdened with responsibilities, who are over-working, over-extending ourselves beyond our capacities. The risk for burnout is at an all-time high here and this week. Think about the ways that you have been taking on more than what is for you, taking on the emotional challenges and burdens of your family and friends, the extra projects at work, the overall extra-ness of life at the moment. This card is calling for you to tap into your creativity to forge creative solutions to this over-extension of yourself. How can we be more efficient in our daily activities? How can we work smarter not harder? Over time, you have acquired the skills to recognize the ways that you can accomplish many things with not much effort and it’s time to employ those skills now. This card also speaks about the ways in which we imagine bracing ourselves for the words of our families, for the judgement that may pass with their words and actions. Recognize the humanness in all people and acknowledge the ways in which we are all on some journey to our own illumination.  Take the time to re-center, to rest, and to focus on being more efficient in the ways you expend your energy.

Card of the Week: Trapped in Fear
The Psychic Tarot
The card for this week warns us of the ways in which we succumb to our own fears and self-doubts. And when we do so, we become trapped. The person that is trapping you right now, that is holding you captive in fears is yourself. For many of us, we are our own harshest critic, our own greatest naysayer and gatekeeper. If you’ve been contemplating moving on from a situation- a job, a relationship, a commitment- and you’ve been unable to move on because of fear, it’s time for a breakthrough and to acknowledge that in this situation you might be the problem. How can we break through these mental blockages? Support, love, compassion for the self, self-acceptance are all keys to unlocking the theoretical cages you have placed yourself in. Dream beyond the threshold you’ve placed for yourself. Now is the time to break free. This is not a process you have to encounter alone. Seek out the wisdom around you, from the individuals who care for you deeply and wish to see you succeed. Tap into that inner knowing and wisdom to shine through the shadows of doubt and bring about clarity to your situation. It only takes one step, one choice, one thought to set things in motion in the positive direction. Allow yourself that moment of breakdown and breakthrough. You’ll be better off in the future for doing so.
