Monday, the Moon in Cancer conjuncts Jupiter. The mood is jovial. In addition, we have the 2 of Cups.

The meaning is straightforward. The card often features a couple, each with a cup. It conveys meeting, sharing, exchange, and intimacy.

You may find a lot of people meeting up together over a meal (Cancer) to exchange jokes (Jupiter) and stories (Jupiter) about travel (Jupiter) and family (Cancer).

It seemed like people were easily agitated over the weekend with the Moon in Gemini.

Hopefully, the homey feeling and good mood will bring people together. The Moon will be in its sign of dignity after all.

Saturday, February 8, 2014 – Intellect

Today, we have the 5 of Swords with the Moon in Gemini.

Usually, 5 of Swords is associated with defeat, pride, that guy you hate, and ego (as depicted in the Raider Waite.)

I’m taking a different approach because this was drawn from a different deck. Numerology, suit, and element can convey additional meanings to your usual interpretations.

Fives are smack dab in the middle of the suit. Events or desires can turn on a heel. You can go forward or you can turn back – your decision.

Today, the card isn’t about fighting or arguing or any of that. Though it could be a result of mental sparring.

Today, the card is about intellect. Your intellect can be sharp or dull, trained or left to waste, usual or unusual.
It’s much like a sword.

Moon’s in Gemini. I’m feeling Mercurial today. Are you?

In all, I think it’s saying use it or lose it!

Gemini, swords, and air are associated with books, trickery, wits, thoughts, communication, analysis, words, debate, education, the mind, and intellect.

Are you doing something airy today?

Friday, February 7, 2014 – Geronimo!

Friday, we have the Fool.

The Fool has a new and young energy. He has enthusiasm, guts, and optimism.

If you planted a seed yesterday or set an intention, today would be the day to set off with it.

Take your first (or next) step. Make a leap.

Such a thing is exhilarating.

When was the last time you acted like a Fool? How did you feel?

Thursday, February 6, 2014 – Planting a Seed

20140205-234507.jpg

Thursday, we have the Ace of Pentacles with the Moon in Taurus.

Ace of Pentacles is sometimes associated with seeds, as illustrated by Ace of Disks in the Thoth. The reason is fairly intuitive when Pentacles are related to the element of Earth.

Taurus is an earth sign which will provide a lot of stability and grounding today. It’s like having fertile soil. The Ace of Pentacles in this context would suggest it’s a good day to plant a seed or intention of some sort.

Do you have a seed you want to plant?

Wednesday, February 5, 2014 – Success!

Today, we have the 8 of Wands.

This card is often about swiftness and opportunity.

Eights mark the passage between the sevens and the nines. It is a place where a person can feel comfortable and secure or pursue the progression in the suit. Add in Wands (Fire), and you can see where the card relates to the first two meanings.

Moon in Aries is a warrior. Aries wants to win. Today will be like that. There will be opportunities to be successful.

Like depicted in the 6 of Wands.

How was your day? Did you see opportunities for success?
