May 2021 may feel intense even if you can’t quite put your finger on why. Generally, this time of year in the Northern Hemisphere is potent and ripe. We are reminded of the sacredness of the earth and all her life. At the end of the month, Saturn and Mercury both station retrograde, around the same time as a Supermoon Eclipse—urging us to rethink patterns and processes. Pluto is retrograde, adding to the pull to turn inwards.

May's Tarotscopes are meant to guide you, keep you focused, centered, and aligned with your truth. 

Loving yourself is loving your ancestors. Ancestral work can help everyone. Ancestral work is broad, vast, and incredibly important to any personal magical and spiritual practice. Read more about Sarah's insights and tips to connecting with your lineage and navigating ancestral work.

With so much interest in the Tarot right now, figuring out where to begin can feel overwhelming. There are odd myths, like you should never buy your own deck. (Not true!) Those of you new to Tarot might not even understand what to think about when choosing a deck. I wanted to share some great resources for looking up Tarot decks and deck reviews, and my personal tips for choosing a deck. 

April continues the start of the Zodiacal new year. This time of the year in the Northern Hemisphere resonates with fresh starts and tender, fragile buds. Protect whoever it is you are becoming. For the second half of the month, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun are in Taurus. This brings us grounded, sensuous, and stable energy around our values, what we love, and how we communicate that. Other themes of the month are: reclaiming ourselves, inner child work, protecting your desires, and growth.

Those of us in the Northern Hemisphere are mere days away from the Spring Equinox. The last winter chill must be shed before we can fully thaw out and welcome growth. If you don’t feel particularly “new” right now, tune into what must be cleared away. Spend the next few days making peace with past regrets, past selves, and past lives.

March is a simultaneity of thawing out and bundling up. One step forward, two steps back. Seeds germinate in the void.
