Cancer (The Charioteer of Tides A vertical illustration, 3:5 aspect ratio. A giant, celestial crab made of translucent moonstone and pearlescent shell, resting at the edge of a cosmic shoreline. Inside the shell, a miniature swirling galaxy is visible. Above it, a massive, glowing Full Moon hangs low. Floating in the air are sacred silver chalices overflowing with moonlight. The art style is deeply emotional and ethereal, featuring an ornate mother-of-pearl and silver filigree border. I used meta.ai for this generation and out of the four images produced I chose this one because I truly like that the crab was just a little abstract. Your turn.

If our hearts feel like they are on fire this week, let's make it a smudge offering, pour out our love for the world as a healing incense. Emotional Venus conjuncts Neptune and Saturn all in sparky fire-sign Aries and provide bountiful astrological fuel. This can be dangerous as Mercury retrogrades through March 20, making it hard to get the real facts or to make patient wise decisions. Which can leave a right mess. Check the headlines in the morning because most of the major aspects this week occur at night. With Mercury retrograde, the wise make short-term decisions and do not trigger long-term problems. Decisions made now may be second-guessed later, need to be reversed, or could be regrettable. Just look at the mid-east. So, keep yours short-term, tend to work already on the table. and think through long-term consequences before making any move. When in doubt, hold still and let the smoke clear before proceeding. Saturday, March 7: Most of today’s aspect occur before dawn, so check the headlines. Our perceived vulnerability, as a person or a country, can provoke astounding defenses. On one level, we can understand and speak about our deepest feelings as Mercury conjuncts the Sun in sensitive Pisces and forms an introspective grand trine with Jupiter in Cancer and the Scorpio Moon. If we need to express, write, paint our life story, grieve, this flow helps. But objectivity is challenging under this grand trine in water signs, it could exacerbate jealousy and revenge. If people seem lost in their inner world, and anyone might need time within, don't take it personally but do let them know they're loved and wanted when they return to shore. Allow for room to wander whether within or without this afternoon. Grounding helps. Sunday, March 8: Insecurity or resentment can flash, but so will appreciation for those who really show up, who do what they say they will. Whether it's to ourselves or others, we could deal with a fear of being disappointed or disappointing. Venus conjunct Saturn can make people feel they have something to prove. Instead of letting this get us into trouble, let’s show off our best. Don't withhold, do offer honest and rounded feedback. It’s therapeutic to practice our art form- writing, cooking, drawing, singing, carving, or building Legos. Tonight, we can get that uncomfortable chip off our shoulder and connect more comfortably as Mercury trines optimistic Jupiter. It may be tempting to crack a joke at someone's vulnerability, but don't.

In 2021 that year's Goddess Moons focus was creating an oracle. There were 7 of us who gathered. My deck is hands-on, mixed media (no we didn't use AI back then cuz it wasn't around 😜). I finally finished the card back and about 4 "accessory" cards, the booklet, and the box. I'm waiting for the prototype to arrive from the publisher now... so it's coming soon!

Please join me in welcoming @Sue Frend into our community! I'm so happy you are here Sue and apologies for the late welcome. I love that you jumped in with full participation!

The Aries (The Pioneer) PROMPT A vertical illustration, 3:5 aspect ratio. A majestic, crystalline ram standing atop a jagged peak made of obsidian and glowing embers. The ram’s horns are massive and translucent, swirling with internal solar flares and molten gold light. Behind the figure, a massive, stylized sun burst creates a halo of sacred geometry in shades of crimson and burnt orange. The atmosphere is thick with floating sparks and ethereal smoke that forms the faint shape of a celestial warrior. The art style is epic high-fantasy, otherworldly and powerful, featuring a heavy hammered-bronze filigree border with ancient runes. Vivid warm tones, dramatic lighting, and a sense of divine fire. Have fun and share!
