Who you are; a poem by Semele Xerri
Awakening by Marco Braun

I wrote Who you are on April 5th 2023 – the eve of the full moon in Libra.

The Thoth Tarot suggests we engage with the energy of the Six of Disks this lunar month. The subtitle is immediately uplifting, indicating successful new developments and feelings of abundance, enjoyment and growth. I find it so interesting that with the Spring Equinox only yesterday reminding us of balance, so does this card. It suggests that these practical, positive results come about through aligning forces in harmony and reciprocity, both spiritual and material.

Two of Wands from the Thoth Tarot

Here’s my guidance for February 2023, including a one card Thoth Tarot reading and a brief overview of the month’s astrology. The Thoth Tarot presents us with the energy of the Two of Wands to work with this month, urging us to act with the full force of our enthusiasm and inspiration. This month gifts you with clarity on what you want and the courage to risk moving towards it. On a personal level, this means building total confidence in and acceptance of yourself so you can focus all your will on going for it. At this point, know that where you’ll end up doesn’t matter; now is just about deciding on and taking the first step. So whatever it is you’re fired up about, it’s time to do it.
