#18: Count Every Beautiful Thing
Venus Cazimi + Exciting News + Year Ahead Readings
Hi angels,
First of all…happy Venus Cazimi! Today, and actually precisely when this email is arriving in your inbox, Venus is conjunct the Sun at 29° Libra.
What does that mean? Well, lots of things, but perhaps in its purest form today is a sweet opportunity to spread the love. The world seems to be a never ending shit show… and yet it’s also full of sOOooOOoooOO much never ending beauty. It’s really around every corner if you’re paying attention and today of all days is a nice one to notice it and embrace it all intentionally.
If you’d like a practical way to harness this energy, simply ask yourself what you value, and do something to honor it.
Alone time? Block off an hour this weekend just for you- no exceptions, no excuses. Your relationship? Write a note to your beloved(s) and tell them how much they mean to you- even when you’re fighting. Stability? Share how much your space means to you with your roommates/family/pets/plants and thank them for their own contributions.
Even though I’m still (still, still) in the throes of my first Saturn Return, things have been looking up lately. Dare I say I have…learned some lessons? That I have…matured drastically?? That arduous journey is for a much different email in the future, but truthfully it’s just been refreshing to recognize love in many forms lately.
That said, I have some VERY!!!! EXCITING!!! NEWS!!! and also wanted to name drop a popular reading I offer for holiday gifting- in case you’re already on your shopping grind and/or want to give the gift to yourself! It’s all about love right now and imo self love should always be at the top of your list.
First things first: I’ve been working closely with Birthdate Co. for the past year and have been part of several exciting projects with them- perhaps my favorite so far being the seasonal horoscopes we launched back in April. I write these every month for each sign and it’s truly a labor of love. Scorpio Season ‘scopes just went live so please check them out and share with friends! It’s set to be a very moody, surprising, and transformational spooky season (looking at you, midterm election day) and it’s all arriving right on time.
But the big ~news~ is that Birthdate Co. has something SUPER SPECIAL arriving in New York very soon!!!!!! I’ll be in the city with them and would love, love, love to see any and all of you that may be around while I’m in town. I’ll have more info to share before long, but just know that something magical is brewing and you’re invited!
Next up, a little love for my “Year Ahead Tarot Reading.” Maybe I shouldn’t pick favorites…but this one is very close to my heart. It was born from a ritual I’ve done for myself for years- pulling a huge spread at the end of the year to wrap up the past and prepare for the future. I have clients return year after year for this reading who sing its praises as a supportive tool while the year unfolds.
Here’s a review I received from someone many months after pulling her spread:
“I wanted to let you know how UNBELIEVABLY accurate what you sent me has been. Everything you laid out for me has happened - almost to the letter. Given recent events in my life, I went back to look at what you wrote and was blown away. This last quarter has been extremely difficult to say the least! However reading what you have predicted moving forward has been a huge source and inspiration in getting me through the challenges! Thank you for everything. You truly have helped so much! I look forward to doing a full reading with you in 2023!”
This reading makes such a thoughtful and powerful gift and is by far my most popular around the holidays. If you’re interested in booking this reading for yourself or someone you love, please get in touch (and especially if it’s a gift, please send me an email so we can coordinate delivery to the recipient).
And that’s it! I’m not sure anyone really *loves* long emails so I’ll stop while I’m hopefully ahead. My heart has just been bursting with things I’m passionate about lately and it’s my deepest desire to spread that magic far and wide. Especially right before everything gets upended with the looming eclipses ;-)
Sending SO MUCH love and gratitude your way this Venus Cazimi and always,
🎵 karma is cat, purring in my lap ‘cause it loves me 🎵(iykyk)
