Week of September 14, 2025

We’re sitting in the in-between this week… the reverberations of the Pisces lunar eclipse on September 7 and the build-up to the Virgo solar eclipse on September 21. Add in the Fall Equinox and Libra season waiting in the wings—and the 9 universal year plus 9 universal month numerology—and you’ve got a cosmic clean-out unlike anything else.

This week’s This Might Hurt Tarot spread drives the message home with repeaters galore: imbalance is unsustainable, resistance only makes the cycle bumpier, and transition is the real magic.

Tarot Spread:

• Base of the pyramid: 6 of Pentacles reversed, 2 of Pentacles reversed, The Empress upright
• Middle of the pyramid: Wheel of Fortune reversed, 5 of Wands reversed
• Top of the pyramid: 2 of Wands upright
• CEO Pillars:
  • Earth/Body = 6 of Swords upright
  • Air/Voice = Knight of Cups reversed
  • Fire/Energy = The Magician
  • Water/Nervous System = Ace of Cups reversed

Together with the skies, the cards weave a story of endings with integrity, systems in need of root-level change, and the courage to set down what’s already collapsing.

This week’s journaling prompt:
What am I still trying to hold together that’s already falling apart—and what new horizon opens up when I finally set it down?

Hello. Welcome back to your Sunday Woo Crew Private podcast. This is your reading for the full week of September the 14th through September the 20th, 2025, and this week we have so much astrology. And we are also using the tarot deck. This might hurt by Isabella Rotman. It's been a minute since we've used it. It was screaming at me from the shelf. Without further ado welcome back. So we are still riding the cosmic aftershocks of that really big Pisces clips that kicked off last week's reading. On September the seventh, and I don't know about you, but it feels like the air got scrubbed super raw in the past week, like the kind of deep clean that you don't exactly ask for, but suddenly you can breathe the better. Once it's done, it's like going to the chiropractor and your neck is all stuck and you're like, ow ow. And then they crack your neck and for a brief moment you're like, oh, holy hell. And then you're like, oh my God, it's so much better. That's the feeling. So this week we are officially in the between times. This is definitely the liminal stretch. We've come just after one eclipse and it's right before the next one. We're gonna talk about the next one a lot this week, and it matters this liminal space because the Virgo solar eclipse is waiting in the wings on September the 21st, which is going to be next Sunday. It's gonna kick off next week's reading, but we're gonna talk about it this week 'cause there's just a whole lot going on there. And then Libra season opens the curtains the very next day with DA about the fall, Equinox. As if you couldn't have enough things going on. And it happens every year, but for some reason all of us get our panties in a wad and we're like, oh my God, it's eclipse seasoned, but it actually happens every year like this. But this year there's just a lot of extra energy because we're adding to that the numerology of a nine universal year. And we are in a nine universal month. This is the month of September. It is the number nine, which means you've got endings piled upon endings. Last week we talked about how the eclipse adds in this like triple threat. She can sing, she can dance, and she can act, and it's all the things. It's closures. It's clear outs and we can really think about it. Kinda like compost bins that are just like really full to the brim, which means there's gonna be a bit of composting going on for a while when you fill a compost bin that full. So let's see how the skies and the cards are lining this up. We're gonna start with our astrology weather report, and yes, we are in eclipse season, which always means that you can expect intensity. You can expect the unexpected you can expect. Release the Pisces lunar eclipse back last week on September the seventh, pulled us down into the emotional undercurrents. Pisces is the sign of endings, dreams and disillusions. It is the last sign in the Zodiacs wheel, so it really feels an ocean tide pulling things away from shore has that pull to it. If something felt in the past week, like it slipped through your fingers, whether it was a project, a relationship, or even a belief system. Trust that it wasn't yours to grip anymore. You can let that ocean tide, pull it away, let the universe's energy help you do some of that labor right now. So here's where we're at in this week of September 14th through the 20th.'cause it gets really interesting. So September 14th through 18th, the majority of the week basically. We're sitting in the reverberation space of that week that came after the big eclipse in Pisces. So you can think of this week predominantly as an echo time. What washed away last week is still creating some ripples this week. You may feel moments of. Grief or nostalgia or clarity about what that ending meant, whatever that was for you. And because this is a nine month, in a nine year, the, this is the end of the line feeling is turned way up to full volume. The universe isn't just asking us to let go of clut. It is. I wrote down, it's saying, I'm like, no, it's screaming. This whole chapter is over the story's not over the story. Newsflash, you're still alive. The story is still continuing, but this whole chapter, this very long chapter is over. And then on September 19th, towards the end of this week's reading. If you have clear skies and you are up early enough, you can look east before dawn and you should see something that in the astronomy is actually quite gorgeous. There's going to be a Crescent Moon, the planet Venus, and the Star reus, and they should all be rising together. Technically in Leo the sky will not be like, here lies Leo in the sky. But wherever they're rising together in that cluster, that is Leo. And so Venus and Leo says, to remember your heart and remember your worth and reus. The Royal Star reminds you power without integrity. Topples. Do I think that there might be some reverberations in the collective? Possibly one can hope. But there's a lot of unregulated power right now without integrity, and it's starting to feel pretty top heavy, even if you don't do anything with astrology and you just tap into energy and you have to be living under a rock, not to be feeling it right now. So you might notice it on the macro level. You might notice it in the micro level as well with various things. Just like we talked about, I'm getting a really strong feeling from someone's guide who's present that it seems to be really heavy on belief systems that seem to be toppling and over, and those are unseen things, which sometimes can feel very not tangible, which sometimes makes it hard to hone in on them. You know this Ian energy that we're in because of the nodes that we've been working in right now. With this eclipse season there Pisces is already dreamy and nebulous, so you're really being asked to notice how much those non-tangible things, such as belief systems. Really translate hardcore into tangible things that happen in real life. And for you to be able to find that red thread, that through line from one to the other brings the intuitive into the reality. And that's how you start making really big changes in your business moving forward. This is big. This is big system. Systematic change, that's really like the visual omen of the week, if there ever was one. That's it. After the emotional wash of Pisces, the sky hands us a reminder of our core strength, and that through line is what shows you where that strength comes from.'cause if you can really identify it and see it. Find that red thread from the intuitive to the practical real world actions, the things that happen in real life. You can then trace everything and you can strengthen the ones that need to be strengthened. And you can clip the strings of the things where you're like, and that doesn't serve a purpose by you can be like, and I'm done. And there's a lot of power in that and I feel like we're being handled a lot of. Keys to the kingdom, our own kingdoms right now. But with great power comes great responsibility. And so there, there is this, training wheels feeling right now during this between times between the two eclipses. And then we get to September 20th, which is the end of this week's reading. This is when Saturn is pressing in from Pisces as well, making the whole season just feel heavier. Thank you. Saturn, the cosmic cleaning lady of the universe. It's more slow, it feels more consequential. You probably be feeling that by the time you get to sa. It's as if the cosmos is saying, don't just feel these endings, structure them, commit to the release, own the discipline of letting go. And Saturn is a planet. It has a lot of archetypal energies around discipline. And so leaning into structure creates the freedom that you are looking for. So all of this week. Leads us straight into the start of next week's reading on September the 21st, next Sunday, September the 21st is the Virgo Solar Eclipse, Virgo Rules, boundaries, systems, the nitty gritty of how we organize life, salute to all the Virgo Risings in the room. You know exactly how that feels. So if. Pisces dissolved something, which Pisces is apt to do. Virgo is here to give us a clean slate to rebuild, but you cannot rebuild if you're still hoarding emotional junk. We have talked about this in the last few weeks of readings, especially with the Six Swords cards, and I'm just gonna be a bit spoiler here, but it shows up again this week in your readings with your cards and the message over and over has again, has been you can't. Pack everything in the kitchen, sink in your boat, it will sink. The boat is not equipped to carry that much weight. So this week is for composting, and I personally love composting. As a kid in Michigan growing up, my parents were like urban farmers and my chore was to go take the kitchen scraps bucket with all of the melon rinds and all of the, vegetable clippings and everything, and to take it down to the compost. Pile at the end of the property with my little pitchfork every evening that was mature. And if you have never done like loose composting before, it's pretty cool. You dig a little hole in the compost pile and you dump your scraps in the hole, and then you cover the hole. Not hard, it's not a hard chore. Not everybody's favorite chore, when you're the youngest in the family, that's the chore you get. And one of the cool things with composting that I noticed by doing it over the years is because it wasn't like the modern composting barrels where everything's wrapped up in this like nice tidy little bin. This was just, a big giant compost pile. And it was amazing how quickly things broke down and became fresh soil. Within a matter of days and not many days, like days on one hand kind of days, unless it was a really big like chunk of watermelon rind or something, which took a little longer, but most things would break down within the course of a couple of days, and you could, pitchfork a hole and dump some fresh scraps in. And you would've sworn that you had just put scraps in there the other day and they're already composted. And so that feeling is really what's going on here this week. It's the trust in the universe that this doesn't take forever. Composting doesn't take forever. And that the process of being like, I'm gonna let go and I'm gonna let this thing become new, fertile soil from which I can grow my next chapter doesn't take forever. But you have to be willing to dump the bucket of scraps into the compost pile. If you don't put the scraps in the compost pile, you don't get the fresh compost. Alright. Let's move into, I don't know who that was for, but you're guys were like, here's the story. It was like the full visual story. Tell the whole thing. So hopefully that made an impact. Alright, your tarot spread for the week. We're using the, this might hurt tarot deck and these cards showed out really loud this week. Sorry I'm laughing 'cause it's a little painful, but here we go. And the deck lived up to its name. This might hurt y'all. Alright, base of the pyramid. This is our base for the structure for the week. We've got our three cards. We have the six of Pentacles reversed, the two of Pentacles reversed, and then the Empress upright. So the six of Pentacle. The six of Pentacles reversed, plus your two of Pentacles reversed, brings you to the keywords. Imbalance, uneven scales, and a juggling act that's gone wonky. That one couldn't fit into one word, so it became multiple words. We have been here before y'all. Both of these are repeaters from earlier spreads, and they keep telling the same story. The story is stop running yourself ragged, trying to hold up lopsided deals, whether that's giving more than you receive or spinning plates you never wanted in the first. Place, it's just not sustainable. That message of is it sustainable? It's kinda like the old Blender commercial. I keep hearing the commercial. Will it blend? Will it blend? And it's is it sustainable? There's a lot of things that are just not sustainable and that is your litmus test question this week. In between these eclipses, I feel like the energy is uniquely positioned this week to help you answer this question. Will it blend, will it be sustainable? Because it's not gonna lie to you this week. You might not like what you hear, but it's not going to lie. And I will tell you that if you did what you heard, these cards probably wouldn't be coming back again. We would be moving on in our narratives. Story. Listen, I'm just as guilty as you. I like, there are so many things where I'm like but I spent so long working on that thing and and and sometimes in business with the way the markets are shifting so rapidly right now, especially with AI and play we are just being. To literally go with the flow and it's yeah, boo, you created that thing, but now you have the skill. So let's make the next thing. So we finish out our our pyramid base with the empress in the upright position. And this is where you get a little honestly, big, not little. The empress is big energy. It's a big beacon. Growth is happening. Creation is here, abundance is here. Softness is here. I love that about the empress energy, that softness. It's something we really need right now. It's hey, just need a soft shoulder to cry on. This card has walked with us through the whole summer, y'all reminding us that evening and endings something fertile is taking root. So that whole like composting fertility of ideas, fertility of possibility is really present this week. And just I have given this analogy so many times in the past. If you've grown anything, you know that you can yell at a plant all you want, but it's gonna grow when it gosh darn is ready to grow. It's girl, stop yelling at me. There's only so fast these cells can come together. And so I, I really feel like this week you get a real feeling of almost if your hands were in the dirt that is the feeling of your energy. Plugging into that grounding force this week. Alright, so then we move up to the middle of the pyramid, and these are our confirmation cards for the week. We have the Wheel of Fortune re reversed. We have seen the Wheel of Fortune many times this year as well. And the five of wands reversed. So with our Wheel of Fortune reversed, and again, another repeater, we're talking delays. Resistance to the natural cycles, and it's not that the wheel isn't turning, we have seen the wheel turning plenty all year long. And I'll tell you, when this card came out, I was like, the wheel is definitely still turning. The reason it is reversed this week is that we are clinging. While it does turn, and that feels really bumpy. So this feeling of needing to just let go of what you thought it was gonna be. I've got someone's guide in here giving me words and they're like, the order. It's not that you're not getting what you want, it's that the order in which you thought you were gonna get it is not the same order. And at least one someone's in here is just really feeling like a, like that stubborn, I feel like a kid is just but I wanted it that way. And universe is no, I'm giving it to you in an easier way.'cause if he got it exactly the way you want it, it's gonna take you longer. It's gonna cost more money. Just gonna be harder to do. And they're like, can you see it possibly being any other way? And this makes so much sense now. Why at the beginning of the reading, it was really feeling like from that guide that showed up that the thing that is being let go is a belief system. And the belief system sometimes is as simple as like on that one project, I'm just, I'm cling, but it had to be like this. And it's doing things that are very tangible. Stopping you from taking money into your bank account because you're not selling the seat because you're like, but I want them to do it exactly like this. And they're like, but that's not the order in which it's going to happen. It's not meant to happen that way. So then you also have your five of wands reversed to go with that wheel of fortune reversed. And this five of wands reversed is really less about outer conflict and more about inner struggle. So all of this, is really internal struggle and. And while the noise quiets, what's left is the voice in your head and it is saying, but what if I just keep trying and there's this really beautiful nuanced lesson right now, which is yes, you keep trying and at the same time you change the way in which you try. You trust that big wheel of fortune, major arcana energy to. Roll along and help you move along with the timing of the universe instead of clinging to what was supposed to be. And you're like, all right, this is the way we're going and you're learning to keep trying with great imperfection and get really great result. As a result. So that brings us to the top of the pyramid. We get our two of wands in the upright position. This is a totally new vision point. This is a big zoom out moment. This week we're standing with one wand rooted in the old and one wand stretching out into the new. Looking out across the horizon with big picture thinking. So after months of repeaters about imbalance and endings, this is officially this two of wands. This is officially our first peak into what comes next, and I love it. It is also a smaller number in the minor arcana, which means it is at the be more towards the beginning of a fresh hero's journey. And remember, wands is fire. It is creativity. It's a very creative feeling. So this is a really mixed bag of emotions. This week your base is going to be like, oh, holy shit, I really have to change. Wow. Look at how like stuck I've been about. X, Y, z and meanwhile at the top you're like, oh my goodness, there is so much possibility. I am so glad I finally saw that. So that it's very in between eclipse a reading and I, I really feel like it is a powerful one. It's just very internal and something that you really have to do the work on within yourself. And you won't get a lot of applause from other people while you're doing it. I just have to tell you, somebody's gotta just tell them they're not gonna get applause. You're you're not gonna be taken a bow. There's no, nobody wants an encore on this, so don't look for applause. They're gonna ask you for an encore. Don't do it. Okay. If that helped you. There you go. All right, let's do your CEO pillars for the week. This is really tangible homework for the week. We've got our four pillars. The first one is Earth For Your Body, we have the Six of Swords upright. Hello Repeater card. This is Movement Forward, though it is upright. We are in transition and we're leaving behind Choppy Waters for Commerce Seas. The card has shown up so many times in the past few weeks, and it is continuing to guide us to trust the process of change. I really love that it's upright. I believe last week it was. Reversed. And so finally we're back in the upright position and it's just forward, forward motion. And then we've got our air pillar for your voice. This is your night of cups reversed this week. Your voice is good. Message. Beware of petty words without substance. Also be aware of romanticizing the past or making emotional promises that you can't cash. And I really feel like all of this. It is the result of the work that you do this week, particularly with that Wheel of Fortune card. There's going to be some frustrations. This week I am getting a really big note that the, you know. The, oh, that's so funny. I read my own script as petty words without substance. I actually wrote pretty Words Without Substance. You know what I'm gonna, I'm gonna have a little impromptu moment here. We're gonna talk about the words petty and pretty. There's a reason for that. Firstly, let's go back to the original. Be aware of pretty Words without Substance. You should not be giving out pretty words just 'cause you're like, but it's pretty make sure everything's rooted in substance. The entire reading is like, what is a substance? Is it sustainable? And. To also to be that aware for yourself is going to help you avoid getting pulled into other people's bullshit of pretty words without substance. I don't know who this is for, but I'm getting a really big note. I feel like you've already had a touch point with someone's offer, whether it's like some AI bot or some, very attractive community group membership, blah, blah, blah and. It's pretty words without substance and the thing that is making you go, oh, maybe it's, the thing is'cause you're romanticizing the past and you've got a lot of emotional promises that you can't cash right now. And so it makes you think oh, maybe this will be the thing that solves it. And the answer is no. No. So with your voice, be careful for yourself with what you put out this week, but also be careful about what you're bringing in, which is rare because we don't normally talk about this pillar in terms of other people giving their voice to you. But it is so strong this week in that pillar. One would argue during eclipse season, especially smack dab in the middle between the two eclipses. Maybe don't try to manifest a whole bunch of shit. That doesn't mean that you don't close sales. It doesn't mean that you don't. That you don't create offers or you don't tell people about what you're doing. You do. You always do. You don't have the luxury as a business owner to be like, huh the planets are weird right now. I think I'll just stop doing everything. You're like, no, I still have to run a business. It's going to be imperfect, but I still gotta run it. And I've, okay I have a note that there, because I was like, I feel like they're like, yes, you are correct. That this week there's an opportunity for you to practice trying sane different ways of offering things, and always coming back to the sustainability and the substance portion. The like meatiness of things. If you are going to use pretty words, the goal is, does, will it blend? Does that have substance? Quite literally I put the words out. Does it blend or is it just a goopy mess? And you will know the difference between your own bullshit and not bullshit. And this is very, it is just very important. Somebody in here is getting bullshit fed to you from someone else's voice, and you are mistaking it as your own inner knowing, and that's just not true. All right. Fire pillar for energy. We have the magician. This is your power reclaimed this week. I fucking love it. This is the first time in a while that you've had a spark of agency skill and alignment if you've been waiting for the green light to trust yourself. This is it. So if there's one thing you trust this week, it's your energy. I'm getting a note from a guide that just going, they really wanna go back to that air pillar with the voice man. There is whole lot of stuff going on there. You will know if they are pretty words without substance. You will also know if it's pettiness. Because your energy is going to tell you, because the magician has all of the elements at their disposal and control. And when you are embodying the magician archetype, it means that you have personal sovereignty and power and. It allows you to trust yourself. It is early in the journey of the major arcana, and I love that. One of the first lessons in that hero's journey is, do you trust yourself? Do you have all the elements in place that you can trust yourself? And so this week you get that back. And it is another way in which you learn to draw the red thread from your intuition into the practical, tangible things that you do in business on a daily basis. And this is like your. Your gym here. This is your workout gym. Alright, and then we have your water pillar for your nervous system. You have the Ace of Cups reversed this week for this pillar, so there might be a little bit of emotional overwhelm this week. Can't say I blame you with all the eclipse energy. You might have a tired heart. There might be tears. The nervous system is still tender from that Pisces Eclipse. Honestly, a whole fuck ton of nine year clearing. It is a lot. And then you pile on September the ninth month, and it's just like a little bit of insult to injury. It's just a lot. So try replenishing yourself before trying to pour out for others. If this is a week to be in quotes, selfish. This is the perfect week for that. It is not selfish to take care of yourself first to say no. I'm getting a note from someone's guide that it would be a great week as you are preparing if you listen to this on Sundays to open your calendar and just look through and say, you know what, can I eliminate anything? If you can delete it or just be gone without having to send a message, go ahead and just do it. You don't need permission. If it's something where you need to message somebody send your regrets kind of thing. They're like, write the email and schedule it to send at 8:00 AM on Monday morning. So that, that's your homework for the week. With those pillars, again, it is a lot of, there's a lot of emotional work still this week. But this is a lot of like very not public. Frankly not glamorous and behind the scenes, very private internal work that is being done right now. And one of the strongest things you can do for yourself is allow yourself to be in that work instead of trying to be somewhere else. Those words were meant for somebody, I don't know who, but it keeps coming back to that error voice pillar, the pretty words without substance and the petty words without substance. I feel like those two things go together. Whoever's giving you pretty words, it's also being really petty. Like it looks so pretty on the outside, but it's like shit wrapped in, glitter packaging or something. And it there's. A desire. Okay, so they're showing me it's a desire to basically es it's a little escapism, when it's really hard to do this work. It's so easy to go and look for other bullshit somewhere else. And they're like, no. They're like, stay with your own bullshit. They're. Go stick all of that into the compost pile. Speaking of, as a kid, I also remember people's dogs wandering through the yard, leaving their poo behind. And I would also have to scoop that and I would just dump it in the bottom of that compost pile. It was all fertilizer. This is the week for cleaning. Maybe. Maybe literally for you too. All right, let's talk about integrations and takeaways to wrap this up. So we've got repeating cards. Speaking really loud and clear, this week six of Pentacles reversed, two of Pentacles reversed Wheel of Fortune, reversed six of sorts upright and the empress upright. And these cards have been echoing across all our weeks and our decks. That is no. Accident. This is a story of endings with integrity. The message just keeps looping until we finally embody it, which is to stop giving where you get drained and stop juggling what's not yours. And stop resisting the turn of the wheel. The wheel is going to turn, the world is going to move forward. No good person left behind in the collective. And so you want to move forward. You want to move on and grow something new and as we head into the Virgo Eclipse, these cards are all lining up to say that your systems need to change. That is not me being systems Lee biased, although I am. That is the cards, the system of tarot and this. System of astrology are like ta-da. Systems. Systems need to change, not cosmetic changes. Nobody gives a shit a hoot or a holler about what color is on your website right now, if that is what you are fiddling with. So I feel like somebody in, you've been like fiddling while you're listening to me, and I feel like your hand just paused on the mouse. If it did good, stop it and stop doing cosmetic changes. Just forget it. We're talking root level changes. Where do you need to do the real work? That is what this nine year, nine month energy is cleaning up, and then you've got this massive assist. It is not a detriment. It is a massive assist from Eclipse season to help you clean things out. Because eclipses make fast change. They're like, okay, and we're ready. Let's go. So let's mark down in our repeater log the following keywords. We've got imbalance, resistance, transition, and creation, and each week we're refining what that looks like in practice. There is so much progress here, even if it feels circular, that Wheel of Fortune has really given that vibe this week. But if you were to look back to the last few weeks of readings. You too would see just how far you have come. The letting go part is the part that makes it stop feeling so circular, like you're repeating things and more like you're starting fresh again. So if you would like to journal with me this week, the prompt is. What am I still trying to hold together that's already falling apart? And if you can answer that honestly, you can then answer the second half of the question, which is what New Horizon opens up when I finally set it down. That is an incredibly powerful place to come from. At the end of this eclipse season and at the end of this nine universal year, if you can at least be honest with yourself in those answers, your business is going to be so much stronger moving into the one universal year that is coming up in 2026. And guess what? If you answer this question now you have all of the fourth quarter to do some really practical things. There's a very practical feeling that is starting to show up for the fourth quarter. I'm so here for it. I fucking love it. And I will be doing your fourth quarter forecast and your Q1 forecast as well as we get towards the end of this month. Just hang tight for that. But I just have to tell you like this whole practicality that we are moving into is so juicy. And to have it be so grounded and rooted and full of good, strong root systems is amazing. There are so many other sources of business information and resource. And programs and support and services or whatever, and they are going through this topple over feeling right now. They don't have those strong root systems, but you do because you're gonna do the work. And that is going to put you into an automatic leadership position that you will grow into over time as the market grows with you. With that. That's some really big messaging this week. Don't forget to hydrate. I know that sounds weird, but during eclipse season, just remember to hydrate eat some vegetables. Also, on a practical note, please stay healthy. There's a lot of sickness going around right now. I don't think that's a coincidence during eclipse season. And just make sure to mind your health and your wealth and your happiness, and I will see you next week.
