TAROTSCOPES | JULY 29 - AUGUST 4
III OF PENTACLES
The mundane world is a goldmine for the happenings of magic. The medicine of making. The sauce of synchronicity.
TAROTSCOPES | JULY 22 - JULY 28
XX JUDGEMENT
In the act of forgiving, we perceive ourselves offering a key to another. And it is in this motion that we unlock our own shackles.
TAROTSCOPES | JULY 15 - JULY 21
0 THE FOOL
The answer is in you. In the cycle. In the hole in your heart that is full of possibility.
TAROTSCOPES | JULY 8 - JULY 14
XIII DEATH
Dear old death, familiar friend. Kind confidant. Core aspect of the cycle of our psyche.
TAROTSCOPES | JULY 1 - JULY 7
DAUGHTER OF SWORDS
Miracles present themselves to those whose minds are best prepared to experience them.
TAROTSCOPES | JUNE 24 - JUNE 30
III THE EMPRESS
The Empress is a symbol of fertility. A sign of pending sweetness, like low fruit, ripe for picking.
TAROTSCOPES | JUNE 17 - JUNE 23
DAUGHTER OF WANDS
Sitting deep in the thick of change can be disorienting. Isn’t always comfortable. Often has us questioning how we got into a wild situation and how on earth we’ll get ourselves out.
TAROTSCOPES | JULY 23 - JULY 29
II OF WANDS
Direction is not always clear. Deep in the dance of eclipse season, the light on our paths finds a shadow to hide in.
TAROTSCOPES | JULY 16 - JULY 22
IV THE EMPEROR
The California redwood tree stands tall, hundreds, perhaps thousands of years old. It has seen and braved the tests of time.

Last week we felt the winds of fortune, the changing wheels of time, ushering in the season of eclipses.
TAROTSCOPES | JULY 2 - JULY 8
X WHEEL OF FORTUNE
Do you think a feather considers how long it spends floating in the wind? Is it concerned with getting where it’s going?
TAROTSCOPES | JUNE 25 - JULY 1
III THE HIGH PRIESTESS
If you don’t slow down how can you see the silk the spider spins? If you don’t sit still long enough, how can you mirror the morning glory who opens itself slowly like the rare, soft but strong sound singing from a single trumpet?
TAROTSCOPES | JUNE 18 - JUNE 24
DAUGHTER OF CUPS
Neptune's waters seep into us until we come undone, like soggy sides of cardboard boxes, bending gender, calling us to come out of cartons, closets and categories.
TAROTSCOPES | JULY 17 - JULY 23
XIX | THE SUN

TAROTSCOPES | JULY 10 - JULY 16
SIX OF CUPS
This beginning of this week is unflinching. As if you had no reaction to an old lover sneaking her arm around your waist at a concert. A scene that normally shocks, causes you to pull stunts but those crawling fingers on your ripped army tee feel familiar so you just stand there like a double in the final take...
TAROTSCOPES | JULY 3 - JULY 9
0 | THE FOOL
The Fool, when you tap into their energy, is full of wonder.

My feet sighed into the sand as I gulped salty ocean air. Intentionally hyperventilating had an effect like rubbing a cool salve on a festered wound. I trudged quickly, trying to keep pace with friends who walked the flat plane of concrete next to Riis beach...
