It fuels us. Without it things can feel ruinous. Hope is here for you this week, Witch. Hope and the fellowship it brings with it are all here for you. You will need to be particularly mindful, however, of keeping your resources protected, as Fehu Merkstave is telling us. Berkano also reminds us that Hope doesn\u2019t breed in stagnation. Moving forward is the goal this week. It doesn\u2019t have to be great strides, but some growth must be shown. You measure it. Be fair with yourself. \u00a0We use the kindness rule around here, especially self. It is \u00a0growth to just put your big-girl panties on and go to the Bank and sign the damn paperwork, then do it. It\u2019s growth cooking at home instead of going through the drive-thru. It\u2019s growth to say no to the Happy Hour because you have a book deadline. It\u2019s all growth, just take a moment and note all your growth and then let it fuel you through the challenges of this week, because SiSTARS, lordy there\u2019s some energy ready for us to use to be our truest selves and live our best lives.<\/p>\n<p>Take it slow on Sunday and recognize that Chiron goes retrograde. Some of the shadow work you\u2019ve been doing may have to be on pause for now. Step back and reflect on how it&#8217;s going \u2013 or if it isn\u2019t. Highlight what is hopeful in your shadow work and reward yourself for progress. We\u2019re in Leo Season now, so maybe you have that cappuccino and chocolate croissant for brunch. It\u2019s okay to take a breath, pause, reconsider, and then move forward with new energy, ideas, and hope. Sunday afternoon the energy is ripe with Mercury squaring Uranus (1439 hrs pdt) for life getting away from you. Dismiss the toxic productivity and use the afternoon to maybe clean up your car or take it for an oil change. Because Berkano came up Merkstave, my intuition claims that maintenance to the ways we travel need some TLC. (hello, maybe refill your bus pass?) \u00a0Divinity sometimes can be in the mundane details.<\/p>\n<p>Tuesday\u2019s 2nd quarter Scorpio Moon (0955 hrs pdt) allows good energy to have a meaningful talk with yourself about what you are hopeful for? Where can your life benefit from some hope? If you\u2019ve lost hope in a certain area of your life, what can you do today to just take one step forward? Get out the journal and let the good-idea fairy fill the pages with reflections, reminders, and remedies. Remember, Wunjo &#8211; hope- should be the focus throughout this week.<\/p>\n<p>Friday Mercury enters Virgo and everything will mean precision in everything you\u2019re trying by now you\u2019ve worked to amp up protection of your resources, and you\u2019ve mitigated for travel strife (don\u2019t forget to pack your patience, as they say) and now Mercury and Wunjo show you how to deal with the nitty-gritty, just don\u2019t get too far in the weeds. Deconstruct the facts and make sure they make sense and are true. Remember hope grows in fellowship. What Best Witch can you get to your side to help you break away from limitations? Even just an encouraging word in text can make all the difference, so open up and connect.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday the Sagittarius moon has us feeling our wanderlust. Take yourself out on a little adventure of your choosing. Hello bookstores, ice cream, and a walk on the beach. Pat yourself on the back as you made it through another week. You\u2019ve held onto hope, grew a little more, and practiced kindness on yourself. What a week, Witches!<\/p>\n<p>If these readings are resonating with you, please leave a comment and let me know here. If something happens during the week and you are saying to yourself, \u201comg the Runes called it,\u201d please let the whole covenstead know here in the comments. \u00a0Thank you for sharing your time with me here.
