June 22 to July 21 is ruled by the sign of Cancer. In the Tarot, The Chariot (Major Arcana, #7)* is associated with the sign. The Chariot is victorious accomplishment through harnessing one’s energy and applying it to a goal. I call it the “keeping your eye on the ball…
We are now in the time of “the twins” of Gemini (May 21 – June 21). This sign is represented by The Lovers in the Tarot (Major Arcana, #6)*. The Lovers may seem obvious at first, but like the dual-personalities of the twins of Gemini, there is a whole other energy at…
We are in the sun sign of Taurus (April 20 – May 20). This sign is represented by The Hierophant in the Tarot (Major Arcana, #5)*. The time of the Hierophant is a period of higher-learning. I’ts no wonder May is a popular month for educational promotions and graduations. Every teacher should…

We are in the sun sign of Scorpio (October 23 – November 22). Scorpio is represented by the Death card in the Tarot (Major Arcana, #13)*.
