At this point, you are probably sick of me (and so many others!) talking about change. One cannot deny how different the world is now compared to six months ago and the astrology backs this up. July brings our final outer planet sign change of the year, inviting in one more big shift.
Uranus, the planet of the unexpected and revolution, is moving into Gemini. This happens every 84 years and does often line up with the United States going to war. For anyone paying attention to the news, this is unlikely a surprise. Both Gemini and Uranus rule over our nervous system, cluing to us to expect the unexpected. War aside, this cosmic signature is a huge catalyst for change. This is a great time to find little ways to soothe your nervous system. When I saw the cards I pulled for the collective energy, I knew it was Uranus coming through.
As always, I will remind you that, “Tarot isn’t magic- you are magic. Tarot is a mirror.” Notice what resonates and leave the rest. These are cards from my Be With Your Body Tarot deck.
Let’s start with one of the most feared cards in a tarot deck…
The Tower Reversed:
Some major change is headed our way and we want to resist it. Sometimes change does need to be resisted (like an administration dehumanizing and removing rights of most of its citizens) and sometimes the resist causes more pain than allowing the change to happen. I see this as more of the latter. The Tower often refers to a system or structure that has been built and established for many years. We start to see the cracks form, but eventually the patches get their own cracks and the whole tower needs to fall. I almost see this as the structure and systems of our government. Most of us can see that the system isn’t working, but we are scared to change the system because change is hard. I always remind anyone I pull this card for that after The Tower comes The Star. When we release what no longer works, what is left reminds us of our true values and support system.
Look to your own life. Is there something that hasn’t been working for a while that you are holding onto? What would it be like to let this thing go and create something new?
Here is a mediation on The Tower and The Star to feel a bit deeper into these themes:
The Tower:
The Star:
Four of Hands
Speaking of support, I love that the Four of Hands came out next. This card is about collaboration and creating something new. After The Tower reversed, this tells me that when we embrace the change, the people we collaborate with will be our safety net.
Look into your own life. When you read “collaborate”, who did you think of? Who is your co-conspirator in work, home or social life? Nurture those relationships.
Page of Eyes Reversed
When upright, this card evokes curiosity and learning a new skill. It is reversed, so it’s a little bit trickier. When a beginner mind takes on ego, it can cause harm. I know it can be exciting when we are learning a new skill that we want to share that with everyone. This card is a reminder to not rush through learning and trust the wisdom of those who have been doing the work a long time.
Look into your own life. Is there a new skill you are learning? Great! Keep a curious mind and let yourself be in the beginner stage. Notice if you are taking on more authority with this new skill that you may not have earned yet. Being in a leadership role before you are ready can be a little dangerous. It’s ok, simply trust the timing and with focus and study, you, too will be an expert one day.
Overview:
Have open eyes for the change that is happening. Nurture your support systems and don’t take on too much before you are ready.
