This is the dark time<\/strong>. The dark time of year in the Big City, Northern Hemisphere. And we need light. Lucky for us, finally, we have some light. We’re still neck-deep in Scorpio Season but Venus, Goddess of Love, has entered frisky fire sign Sagittarius<\/strong>. This is Good News, which is what Sagittarius prefers.<\/p>\n

Where do you find light?<\/em> Do you create it, generate it? Or seek it outside yourself? Moon or Sun? Maybe in the beating of your heart. I like hearts. I realize that I collect them. Not bloody pulpy hearts but cool red ones — made of glass or ceramic or wood. The ones that aren’t real.<\/p>\n

A story: I’m frustrated in my new town. I don’t have a car. The public transportation is good, but tricky, especially if you want to go food shopping and you want decent food. So today I went on an adventure to get to this One Store<\/em> and I got there and it took forever and a day to get back.<\/p>\n

I’m home now, and warm, and staring at my candle magic. I am doing a ritual. I started it the other night and will continue until the 22nd of November, the New Moon in Sagittarius<\/strong> (Venus will be conjunct the New Moon, FYI). Seven nights. Burning particular candles for a particular purpose and as I noted in one of my chat rooms: the intention of my candle magic is changing. I went in with one idea and the act of DOING this ritual, with intention each night has given birth to\u2026 \u00a0me.<\/p>\n

My birth chart, my natal chart, is low in fire. An astrologer once told me that candles were good for me — to increase fire, warmth, radiance.<\/p>\n

\""new<\/a>Two candles. The candle snuffer nearby. Matches. And my new red glass heart. I don’t what it’s supposed to be. Too heavy to be a Christmas ornament maybe but\u2026 I got it at an antique store. The one who loves me truly will buy me hearts<\/strong>. Venus rules love and money, money and love.<\/p>\n

But I digress. Since about my fourth sentence up there I digress, but what I know is this: Venus has entered Sagittarius and our love has come home from her wandering. Our love has come home by telling a story. Jupiter, ruler of Sag, is the storyteller.<\/p>\n

And you know what I’m going to say: if you are finding yourself in a dark time, then light a candle and maybe a red one and pretend you’re in my Tarot class (or actually take my Tarot class) and think how you can be more like this Queen of Wands<\/strong> we know and love — she is passionate. She is fierce<\/strong>. Huge sunflower. Flower of fire.<\/p>\n

Wishing you good cards xx<\/em><\/p>\n
