Mary Williams @sensiblewoo Episode 14

Virgo Season, Black Moon Magic & Big Boss Energy

The post–new moon portal is wide open, and it’s not just Virgo season anymore — it’s shadow work season. We’re still riding the wave from the black moon in Virgo on August 23 (aka the second new moon in the same sign this year), and it’s pushing us toward some serious spiritual decluttering.

This week’s reading dives deep into what it means to do the work — not perform it. With multiple Aces in the spread, potent reversals, and major arcana tucked into the pillar positions, it’s clear: this isn’t the week for passive vibes. It’s a time to choose — even if what you’re choosing is discomfort that leads to clarity.

We’re also approaching eclipse season (yup, already), so anything that’s coming up right now is your soul giving you a sneak peek of what’s ready to transform.

Listen in for your integration guidance, plus journal prompts, mindset shifts, and energetic cues for moving your business and body into alignment.

Hello, welcome back to your Sunday Woo Crew private podcast. This is the full episode for the week of August 24th through August 30th, 2025. And my friends, we are deep in it. This week there is shadow work, big edits and new moon intentions. And yes, eclipse season is quietly sliding into view. We are definitely going to talk about it this week and this week. The astrology and the tarot are not subtle. I mean, I would argue every week they are not subtle, especially recently, but especially this week, you are being called to clear the field now so you can move forward without dragging the weight of old narratives, and that really is sort of like the prep for Eclipse season. We're gonna dive into it. Um, but first I'm gonna introduce your tarot deck of the week. This week we're working with the Ethereal Shadow Tarot by Vixen. This is one of the decks I found on Instagram last year, and I love this deck. I don't love the size of the cards. I'll just tell you my hands are too small and it's really hard to shuffle them. Um, but the, the artwork is beautiful. I feel like it's a really potent deck. It's gonna hold the energy of liberation through discomfort really well with the energy we're dealing with this week and moving into eclipse season. If you ever get your hands on this deck, or if you've seen me read it before in the old video readings, you'll know that it's a very elegant, moody, and it's. Very sharp deck. And I don't mean like the artwork is sharp. I mean the way it delivers messages is really sharp, which is perfect for the Virgo Black Moon, which we're gonna talk about in a minute. And especially this very liminal moment. We have a lot of old identities that are falling away right now. So let's start with the astrology to anchor all your ritual work this week, and then we'll go deeper with the cards. So let's look at the business. Themes for August 24th through 30th. We're starting with, uh, a really powerful afterglow of the Virgo New Moon, which happened right before this reading came out in your RSS feed. So the Virgo New Moon was on Saturday, August 23rd. You're getting this reading on Sunday, August 24th, and that moon was a black moon. And in case you don't know what a black moon is, this is when you get the second new moon in a calendar month. It makes that moon, the new moon, like. Extra intense and new moons are already pretty intense, but it makes it extra intense. So a blue moon is when you have the second full moon in a month, but a black moon is the second new moon. And this Virgo New Moon from Saturday, August 23rd was a black moon. So we're gonna dig into that. The moon's current waning phase now says to set your intentions and then make space. So again, being very conscious, we talked about that last week too, like, you know, slow down, like what are you trying to do here? And then take the action. Especially to make space right now. And that space is gonna help you navigate Eclipse season, which is just a few weeks away. It is definitely time to clean house. You know, a lot of people get really nervous about Eclipse season, or if you've been in the woo woo astrology space for a while, you know that people make a big deal about things like mercury retrograde or eclipse season. And the truth is, is that, you know, it's just another day. It's another season. Yes. You know. Notice things happening, but you know, when you don't take time to take action and deal with your shit is when you feel those events, it feels like they hit you harder. It feels like you get sideswiped a little more often. And so there are a lot of things that are well within your control. In my old systems coaching days, you all know, I was like, can you prevent your preventable emergencies? And this would be, you are your best system as, as somebody who has astrology in your chart as somebody who has human design in your chart. As somebody who has tarot cards at your disposal, you are a system and the system is saying, you know, what can you make, um, make, make better so that you can prevent entirely preventable emergencies? And then that way, the things that are kind of surprising, they don't throw you so hard. And that's really the goal here, so that you are able to function at an increasingly higher level in your business. So you're gonna see that this week's tarot shows emotional and energetic congestion. So that's part of the cleaning house. And there's a major push to take aligned action in your business systems, your offers, and your schedule. So we'll start with our astro weather, as we always do every week. And the big news is really that Virgo New Moon that we just passed on August 23rd. Even though the date has passed, the energy is still very much active, which is why I wanted to make sure it was included in this week's reading. And if you can hear Damon Salvatore meowing on the other end of this microphone, then you would know that the cat agrees. This was a black moon, as we talked about. It means it's the second new moon in a calendar month. These really don't happen very often, and they bring an extra layer of shadow clearing, which is why I wanted to use this shadow deck that we're gonna play with this week. It happens especially around personal identity and unconscious patterns, and you might have noticed over the last few weeks that the. Unconscious patterns, you're being encouraged to bring them to the surface and make them conscious. Um, I, I would liken this to, I'm being told by someone's guide to turn it into like a physical, tangible thing. So, um, if you have ever had like a lot of tension in your body, I've had a lot of tension in my body this past week. Supposed to be while I'm getting this reading recorded, and, and, and, you know, sometimes your muscles get really tense deep down, and as you bring the tension. Out of your body, it rises to the surface, and then sometimes you'll feel some soreness. Like if you've ever had a really, really great body working session, um, like massage therapy and or a good chiropractor session, and you're like, you know, I'm kind of sore afterwards, but it's like kind of like a good conno sore where you're like, wow. Deep down in my core of my body, I feel a lot looser and a lot less uncomfortable on the surface, I feel a little tender, but like it's working out of my body. That kind of feeling, but let's make it energetic and apply it to your business. So your business skeleton is getting all of the stuff brought up to the surface so that your body can clear it. So Virgo governs the body habits and daily rituals. So if you've been. Operating in burnout, chaos, or clinging to productivity without purpose. So like busy work, this is your sign to stop lovingly. Virgo is the editor, the Alchemist, the priestess. She's here to help you refine, not perfect the life you're actually living. And I love this about Virgo season. You know, we've talked about this, the last couple of astrology seasons, that just because you don't, you're not a Virgo, or maybe you don't have a lot of Virgo in your chart, does not mean that Virgo is not present A in your chart, B in your life, or C in the environment. Around you. And so learning to go through the season collectively with everyone else means that everyone is going through Virgo season. It can give you a lot of clues about how you wanna handle yourself, but also how your customers are dealing with this season too. Sometimes you might notice like, wow, they're really dealing with like. You know, discovering that they can't keep continuing in a, in a state of burnout. And it's like, okay, where are they in that journey? Because you're bringing this unconscious part conscious and you're able to put words around it, and now you're able to describe things for them and help them build bridges into. The thing you offer and how your product or your service can help them with that, say, in this example burnout. So, um, so, so really think about that as you go through the reading this week, because I feel like this is where you get the opportunity to be a real leader in, in your offers and in your world. So we're, we're also officially in the pre shadow zone for Eclipse season. Like I teased you in the beginning there. The first eclipse is a lunar eclipse in Pisces, and that's gonna happen on September 17th. So we're still like, what, two, three? Is that even four weeks? No, three weeks out. And, and, and, and we're already feeling a lot of energetic tremors. This week's lunar flow has a libra moon, a scorpius moon, and a Sagittarius moon. So, you know, the moon moves the fastest and, and it moves through, you know, all the houses and the signs. And so, so there's, there's a flow this week through Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius. And it's, and that, that moon, that lunar movement is going to pull you through a bunch of. Themes. The themes are relational balance and energetic boundaries, and big picture philosophy. So as you just live your life, and you don't have to think about is today a Libra Moon or a Scorpio moon? You don't have to think like that, but just kind of notice, you know, if. Do you? Do you have any shifts in how you hold your work and your worth and your big why and expect shifts in those areas? So if you notice that you're like, wow, I really noticed a shift this week in my worth, it might not mean that you suddenly change your prices. It just means that you are aware of something. You were more aware of it than you were before in a really much more profound way than just like, huh, I think I need to charge more money. But like, it's a little bit deeper than that, right? So that that means that this is a week, this is not a week to delay decisions. It is a week to do things like set new boundaries in your schedule. So, um, if you have some, somebody in here, your guides are showing me a calendar and your time blocks are, um, for lack of a better term, really fucked up. So it'd be a really great week to deal with that. Um, it might be a week to make behind the scenes upgrades. Um, like you've got a lot of, you know, a lot of things to do. Again, not the sexy stuff, right, but, but behind the scenes things that makes the stuff on the front really sexy. And it's also the week to release offers that no longer serve. So not put them out into the marketplace, but to be like, you know what? I'm gonna retire this thing. There are so many ways that you can retire things. Sometimes you might just unceremoniously, just quietly put them behind a closed door. Other times you might be like, I'm gonna do one last flash sale. That's it. Get it. It's like a 24 hour offer thing, and then it's done, you know? You, you will go through the process of meditating on the energy of this week and figuring out how do I wanna release that? What, what serves me best? And then it's also a week to update your daily rhythms to match your current capacity. So this, this thing about capacity keeps coming up week after week, and I really feel like it's because the way we are moving through our energetic age. Is encouraging us to leave that patriarchal ian rhythm of like, more, more, more fail faster, do more, more revenue streams. And it's more like, okay, can we get more into the Aquarian rhythm? Which is like, are you capable of holding all that? Does that really work for you? Um, the, the, the aquarium themes are not like, well, I guess you don't have enough capacity, so I guess you're not gonna make as much money. It's like, no. It's like with the capacity you have. How do you offer something that is high quality and gives you the quality of life you need and brings in that revenue that you need? That's the question to to be answering. So with that in mind, from the astrology, let's dive into the tarot using the Ethere shadow Tarot by Vixen. And you can pull cards from your own deck that you love using so that you can look at them while I talk through them with you, which I think is a really beautiful way. You do not have to always use exactly the deck that I use, um, but if you have them, I know some of you are tarot nerds like me and you like collecting decks. So if you do collect decks, you know this will introduce you to that deck. Um, but a lot of people will have a deck that they just really love and it'll help you get to know your deck better. So, um, feel free to pause as you need, um, or look at the show notes and you can see them all written out. And um, and then we can follow along here. Alright, so we're doing our pyramid, um, spread and the foundation of the pyramid has. Three cards and the foundation for the week starts with the Ace of Cups reversed, and then the Page of Cups upright follows. And the third card in the line is the eight of Cups reversed. So we have two reversals book ending, an upright card. This happens an awful lot in our readings, I must say, and I find it. Fascinating. I feel like it creates such a, a lovely, like, symmetrical narrative. Um, so, so let's dive into it. Let's talk about the bottom row. By, by the way. I have, I have nothing other than like, wow. It's such a symmetrical thing that that was the message. Um, alright, the bottom row, um, this bottom row is dripping in water, energy. It's all cups, y'all, all of it. Ace of Cups, page of cups, eight of cups, but none of it feels. Stable. I feel like a lot of that is due to the reversals. The Ace of Cups reversed is the blocked heart moment. It's when the well has run dry or the tears haven't been released yet. Somebody in here you really need, like your guide is telling me that you, you would do well this week to find a safe and private space where you can have. Uh, uh, literally a good cry session. Um, a space to like just fall apart for a minute. And you don't have to answer to anybody. You don't, you don't need anybody to hold your hand. You just need a release. You know, there's emotional stagnance here in your business. This could show up as feeling creatively tapped out or struggling to care about your own mess. Or sensing a disconnect from your audience. I would argue that if you look at just, even just this Ace of Cups card right here alone, in terms of the collective, so we're talking about audience, customer base, um, there's like a collective disconnect that's kind of happening in general right now. And it, I, I feel very much that it is a lot of this like. This, this emotional stagnance that hasn't been released. I don't know that people quite know where to put their emotions right now in general, and that is not for you necessarily to figure out for your audience of people, but being aware of it can help you navigate all of the changes that are going on right now. While your cart might be slow right now, or why it might be blowing up right now in certain ways too, you know, so it can help you figure out, okay, how do I hold. Space for people and also get ready for them in the next phase because that doesn't last forever. And then we move on to the page of cups, which is upright. And this is a reminder that the answers lie in curiosity and softness. This page isn't jaded yet. I love the pages.'cause if this very like novice and innocent sort of, um. You know, energy one, one could argue, maybe a tad naive. So this page of Cups, she's the one who whispers new ideas when you least expect them. She asks you, especially this week, what if you let yourself be surprised by what's next? And it's that like making space for delight and surprised. Um, I, I feel like a lot of people, I'm getting a lot of notes from guides that, that a lot of folks, especially in the business space right now in our reading group, but also in the collective outside of this group in general, are sort of like waiting for that other shoe to drop, surprise feeling. And it's like, but what about the delighted part of. Where does that show up? And do you make space for it? Because if you don't make space for it, for that nuance, it has nowhere to land. And so the goal is can I give it at least a foothold, if not a fully open door, even better a whole room. But sometimes you need to release all of that blocked emotions, stagnance and, and in order to make space for that. Um, and so that might be part of the work this week. And then on the rest of the base, we then move forward into the third card position and we get the eight of cups re, or eight of cups reversed the card. This is a card of delayed departure. Something needs to be left behind and ding, ding, ding. You totally know this. I am not telling you something you did not already tell yourself with that. But the emotional at there was emotional attachment, right? Guilt or perfectionism, and it has you holding on longer than is healthy, and the whole bottom row then says that you're not receiving new nourishment because you're refusing to empty the cup. So it's like refreshing your water this week. How do you refresh your water? Well, maybe you need to cry out the tears. Literally get the liquid out and like empty the cup and, and make space for a fresh cup of water. This is your cue to grieve the offer that never hits. That is a big one right now for a lot of people. And if you are feeling this very strongly, it's not just you, it is a lot of people. So just know that you're not alone. Um, it doesn't mean that everybody has to share all the details. You can, you can grieve however you need to, but it does mean that you do need. On your level, micro level, you need to close the loop On an old project, I get the feeling it might be multiple old projects for multiple people in our reading space here. And to admit that you've outgrown something, even if it once felt sacred. We talked about this. This was a big part of a reading, like I wanna say, like a month ago. It might have been more than that now. Um. I do these readings, and then time is kind of like, what week was that? What month was that? And it's like, oh, it was yesterday. Um, but, but we, I know we've had a reading that had a lot of that, you know, admitting that you've outgrown something moment and, and that it used to be really precious and it was really sacred. And, you know, you built whole funnels around it and you build a whole audience around it. It's just cycles that are updating and evolving and growing and where you need to be. How you got here is not how you're going to get to the next spot, you know? And so it, that's a lot, that's a lot of emotions to deal with. I am not surprised with the Virgo New Moon, the Virgo Black New Moon, um, and also the burgeoning eclipse season that we have this entire water row. Emotional row on the base of our pyramid right now. I'm actually really glad to see it. I feel like it's gonna help a lot of us process all kinds of things that need to be processed instead of dancing around it. We've got that Virgo energy, which is like, can we just cut to the chase? Like let's just be direct. And so I feel like that's what this foundation is doing for you, for everybody. You might notice it in your audience as well this week. And then in the middle tier, we move up the pyramid and we get to our confirmation cards for the week. We have the nine of Pentacles upright in the Ace of Swords upright. And this is so common in our readings here. And y'all know that I change decks every week and I shuffle them real good. And so we, we get these like bookended reversal with the upright on the bottom and then like. The middle tier has like two upright cards, or they're both reversed or something. Um, but they're very, it's a very like, consistent sort of rhythm and I hope that you see that so that you start realizing that there is a rhythm to all of this that is happening and it's actually pretty, pretty cool. So, um. The thing that you know need to know with this row is that it is clean and fierce. The nine of Pentacles brings a moment of recognition. You've done more than you give yourself credit for, and this card shows up when you're on the edge of a major internal upgrade, especially in how you experience freedom in your business and being able to define that freedom too, right? So financial independence is part of this solo brilliance. Space to breathe. There's, there's so much that you have done. Pentacles is earth energy. It is very grounded energy. And in the nine is this moment of like, wait, before I get to the 10, have, have I fully. Recognized and accepted the full picture of everything that has happened. And you know, by the way, did I give myself credit for that? And, and I feel like that is part of the emotional work of that water row on the bottom of the pyramid this week, is that there's a lot of emotions that comes with this. And then we're gonna combine that nine of Pentacles with your Ace of Swords, and this is where you get that clean fierceness. It's the sharp, undeniable truth, the edge of the sword. This is a mental breakthrough and a decision. It's a new way of framing your work. So together, when you put both of these cards together, they say that once you cut the energetic cords holding you back, that's your bottom row. You will see clearly what your next move needs to be. And you may need to rewrite a sales page. That might be the practical thing you do this week. You might change a launch date to give yourself a little more space. You might draw a firm line with a collaborator. You. You definitely have. Clarity that wants to land. It's like I keep seeing like little prop planes that need space to land on a cleared field. It doesn't have to be a perfect field or a perfect landing strip, but it doesn't need space to land. And the question is, is like, will you make room for it? I feel like. Everybody has room for that plane to land, but it's like, did you clutter up the field with like a parking lot for an event? Maybe it's time to clear it so that the plane that's circling above can actually land 'cause all the goodies are on that plane. And then we'll move to the top of the pyramid. This is your higher perspective and you've got the 10 of Pentacles reversed. So we have the nine in in your middle tier, and we got the 10 at the top. At the top. This card. It wants legacy. 10 of Pentacles is such a legacy card. I love that the 10 of Pentacles is a legacy card, but when it came out reversed, I was like, ugh, the legacy is blocked. And you might be feeling that too. Um, when you have your 10 of Pentacles reversed, it's really a wake up call. Are you building something sustainable? That sustainability question is back again. Are you chasing someone else's version of success? Or are you avoiding the hard decisions that would allow true abundance to grow? So you notice how these questions keep coming up, asking you to reflect, to take what is unconscious, subconscious, what doesn't have words around it yet, anything pre-verbal, and it wants to bring it to the surface so that you can find. Words to articulate it so you can deal with it and do something about it. And it again, it goes back to that analogous feeling of, you know, having like knots in your muscles massaged out so they can come to the surface. And it's a little tender at the surface right now, which is why being gentle with yourself right now is really important. So you need to remember that this reversal, this 10 of Pentacles, reverse doesn't mean failure. It's not like you're not building your legacy or that it's blocked forever. It just means there's a crack in the foundation. And if you have ever owned a house. That has big repairs like a crack in the foundation. What do you do that is the, that is the repair that takes precedence over everything else. Maybe you wanted to remodel your kitchen and you're like, no, I guess I'm gonna put that on hold until we fix the foundation.'cause if you remodel the kitchen, but your foundation is cracked, your house is literally gonna fall apart eventually. And that's not good. It means that you wasted all the money on the kitchen remodel and you're gonna have no kitchen to enjoy. So this is what we're doing in our businesses, is addressing those cracks in the foundation. It could be that your pricing is really off. It could be your business model is off. It could be your long-term vision, but we're at a reckoning point right now when it comes to sustainability in business. So whatever it is this week offers you a chance to reconfigure all those things. Do you finish the reconfigure. I would argue no, all of us who are in business, no things take time. But this week is the week where you get to become very clear. If you are clear enough on what needs reconfiguring, it means that you can put it on a project plan. You can put due dates on it. You might delegate some of the workout. You might hire the right. Service provider to help you with the part you can't do, et cetera, et cetera. And, and it allows you to move much more clearly down the path so that that reconfiguration leads to the sustainable business that's bringing you into the future. So. This week is the week to stop layering strategies on top of shaky scaffolding. And I am getting notes from multiple guides in my ear right now, and they're like, they know it's shaky, scaffolding like you are, whoever this is, you're listening to the reading and you're going, oh my God. I know it's shaky. If you're like, I'm not sure. I'm not sure. Having that feeling, even if the words aren't saying, I'm not sure, but your heart is like, uh, I'm not sure you know that. That is called shaky scaffolding. And this message is for you. And so you wanna ask yourself, what does success feel like in my nervous system, not just in my spreadsheet, like, really tap into your body. Remember Virgo rules, physical body. And, and so when you are, when you are figuring out things in this Virgo season, you have great collective access to ask yourself, how does that feel in my body? Because that is going to give you a lot of cues that give you a lot of clues. Of what happens on your spreadsheets and, and that's how you make intuitive informed business decisions. So with that, let's move into your homework for the week and let's get into your CEO pillars. So this week's pillar cards, I'm gonna give you a heads up. They are all super action oriented and they're packed with major arcana cards and repeating symbols. We're gonna talk about repeating cards before we finish, like we do. So if you've been waiting to do your homework, this is a week to show up and get it done. We've been getting this message week after week about getting your homework done this week. It's like, yo, the due date is like, like the paper is due, finals week is here. It's time to do it. Which is kind of funny because it's like back to school season. So a lot of people are actually starting school right now. Um, the only non-major arcana card is, um. Is is, or no, I'm sorry. There's two minor Ana, two Major Ana. I'm looking at my cards wrong. The first one is Earth for your Body. This is Queen of Cups. It is reversed. It is a court card though. Your body's not just along for the ride this week. She is the oracle. We just talked about this. What's happening in your body? How do you feel it? But with the card, this card reversed in your homework section. It's clear that the intuitive messages from your body. It may have been ignored a little bit or drowned out. Maybe it's very, very environmentally noisy in your world. Um, I get the feeling somebody, you, you're, your needs are being drowned out. Like there's a lot happening in your family life. Um, bless. I feel you so hard. Um, but what happens is you tend to like put your, your body cues aside and, and then what happens is they might become misinterpreted. Okay, so how does this show up? In practicality, this could look like things like skipping meals, overworking, pushing through emotional overwhelm. And now that we're in Virgo season, Virgo season's gonna put no, all of our faces. Virgo season wants precision, and that includes precision in your somatic boundaries. So. What needs to be adjusted in your physical routine so your body can be a collaborator and not become a casualty if you find yourself getting sick. I'm seeing a lot of people get colds right now. It is such a huge sign about how, um, your, your body is giving you cues, and that's a big sign of burnout. Next we have your air pillar for your voice. This is your three of ones upright and this card is super duper visionary. It says that your message is expanding and you need to prepare for it. What are you speaking from the past rather than from your next level? This is a great week to revise your about page prep content for future launches, or do vocal warmups before you record. Your voice is going further these days. And the question is, are you using it well? And remember that your voice shows up in multiple ways. It could be like me right now on a microphone for you. It might be in your written content that you send out, or it might be in, um, you know, videos that you put out or artwork or something. But your voices is used in multiple ways, in places and spaces. And when you're speaking from the past instead of the next level, it could be just the. Just a, a rewrite on the language that you use. You know, you might have previously always described yourself one way, and it's time to actually describe yourself in the new way. So the next, um, pillar In the next two, we end out our week on big major arcana. In fact, we end our week on the beginning of the major arc. And the end of the major arcana. So in our fire pillar for energy, we get the beginning of the major arcana with the fool, and it is upright. This is your reminder that your new beginnings don't come with guarantees. They come with momentum. The fool says to take the leap, start the thing. Make the ask. Be brave. Do the thing. Embrace your naivety in all the ways it will still serve you well. This card also says that your energy is a lot lighter than you. Think so What if your next launch didn't need to feel heavy? We're heading into Q4. I've had a bit of a prediction that I feel like collectively there's gonna be a lot of people kind of panicking as they get into Q4. There's a lot of people who are very somatically frozen through the majority of this year. They have not been taking action. They kind of didn't know what to do. They're just like, I'm in survival mode. I don't know what's happening right now. Um, and Q4 hits. And it's sort of like, oh my God, I really gotta like, take, take responsibility, take action, deal with my shit. And, and it's like even in the midst of all of that, why does it have to be heavy? W why can't it be light? So what if your next step could actually feel fun? How would you make that happen? You know, the fool is like, but what if it is fun? And you're like, what does that look like? This is an invitation to bring play back into your creative fire. And to allow that to be a part of it and to rewrite the code of how you put things out. Does it have to be so hard? That question has been coming up for months now. What's the rush and why does it have to be so hard? And, and so I love that the fool shows up here in your fire pillar for energy. And then we're gonna move into your final homework pillar. This is water for your nervous system and we get the world in reverse. So yes, it is. The world. It is the end of the major arcana tarot, but it's reversed, and that means that a cycle isn't quite closed yet, but we are so close. I was like, oh my God, it's the world. When it popped out, I was like, oh my God, it's the world. There's unfinished emotional business. There it is again, that base of the pyramid, reading all those cup cards, that there's unfinished emotional business that's keeping you from the integration that you crave. This could be an energetic leak with a client. It could be a lingering regret or even a celebration that you skipped because you were in quotes, too busy. So give your nervous system. Close your time this week. If you can wrap the things up, all the things, you will get your world into an upright position so that you can close out these old, these, these old, um, you know, cycles, which is exactly what the whole collective is in right now. You know, Virgo season is like, you know, can we cross our T's and dot our i's and like, mind our P's and Q's and do this right? Finally. Because we're heading in two eclipse season on September 17th, and with that Pisces moon that's gonna happen. And we will talk about that more as we get closer to it. But, but right now you don't need to worry about Eclipse season Right. Now the question is like, are you dealing with your shit in the now and, and taking care of things? It's, it's the, the metaphor that I have used so many times in systems work of like. You know, if you just never take out the trash in your house, like pretty soon your house is full of garbage and it stinks, and it's like, can you just make sure you take out the trash? That that's it. Take out the trash, clean the house, do the dishes, put them in the dishwasher, run the dishwasher, put your dishes away, like basic things. And they're the equivalent of those basic things in your business that need time to be done, which means that you are probably turning down, you know, yet another social invitation. Or yet another, something or other where it's like, eh, you know, I really don't need to go to that business. You know, networking thing. I could probably go next month. It's like, what if you took, what if you prioritized yourself first, especially this coming week, what would happen? Get all those things done. It's gonna feel so good when you do. So let's talk about the repeating cards, because you know, I love that this has been showing up. We had Ace of Cups reverse show up again here again from earlier in the summer. Emotional blocks are definitely real, but they're not permanent. The work is in the clearing, not in clinging. So just because it shows up again, doesn't mean that you're failing and that you're clinging to things. It just means like. You're in the midst of doing the work and it's a reminder to like, keep going, keep going. And then we have the three of wands that we also saw in mid July. Your vision keeps on knocking. Are you ready to scale it? Are you ready to go there? We are on prep time so that you can do three of wands in real life. Hashtag IRL. That would be awesome. And then the fool in the world. Dude, this pair together is like sacred geometry. It's super cool. We've seen them separately before and now they arrived into the same spread. It's like they finally got to the party together. It's a beginning and uh, and in any, oh my God words, Mary. It's a beginning and, and ending. Uh, no. A beginning and and ending, oh lord, it has been a week. They're both very much alive, including my mouth that can't read the words on my script properly. So don't get stuck in the liminal this week right now. You know, if you get stuck in the liminal, you end up not being fully alive. You're just in this weird in-between space. So being present is part of it. You've gotta choose. It's a choice about, you know, how do I wanna be in the future? How do I let go of the past? How do I deal with the shit in front of me now and move through it? You know, nothing's ever gonna be exactly perfect, but taking action gets you out of the liminal and into the actual, and that's the real goal. So your integration note this week is, is. Really, I mean, this spread, this spread is the clearest one we've had in weeks. We've had a lot of very liminal messages to use that, overuse that word. Again. Um, we've had a lot of liminal messages in the last few weeks. There's been a lot of stuff building up to this point, and, and we're really making one big ask this week. It's really do the fucking work, not the busy work, not the emotional avoidance. It's the work that clears the path for your next self to arrive. And that might be in very practical terms this week. Things like rewriting your SOP, so your business supports your life. Clearing out old clients from your CRM, closing out the emotional loop on a failed launch. Choosing to feel instead of numb out on your favorite numbing agent of choice, whether it's too much Netflix or too many CBD gummies, or maybe it's like, you know, just scrolling on social media endlessly. Maybe you, you know, delete the apps for a couple of days just to give yourself a chance to like. Reset and focus. You don't need to do it all. You just need to do what's yours. That's the whole point. So your weekly prompt is what are you emotionally, energetically, or strategically done tolerating, and what action can you take this week to make space for something better? If you like to journal, you are welcome to join me, um, asynchronously and virtually in the journaling space and, and really process your thoughts and your emotions around that prompt, um, in your pages. It's a really great way to do that. It's also really great spell work for the witchy. Woo among us. And then just remember that, you know, while this week is shadowy, it's also very surgical. That's that Virgo energy showing up, and the tools are really in your hands already. You just need to use them with love, a lot of self-love. And then also precision. We will talk about eclipses as we move forward, but in the meantime, there is so much homework in this week's reading, and I encourage you to look at it for yourself. First, put on your oxygen mask first, and then notice where you see it showing up in the communities around you, in the audience, around you. And it will help you make decisions on what offers you wanna do or who you wanna collaborate or not. So with that, I will see you next Sunday.
