Question: What does the next six months until the Summer Solstice entail for all of us?

January: Ten of Cups.
This card is about emotional fulfillment and a sense of a happy family and bonds of friendship. You’ve built strong, healthy connections, you know how to navigate these relationships in a mature and thoughtful way, and the shared empathy and joy fills your heart to bursting. This is a truly good time in life.

February: The Tower.
There is about to be a very rude awakening. Things that seemed solid and stable are going to come violently crashing down, but in the rubble left behind are the building blocks toward a better, more truthful, more honest world. It’s definitely going to be scary, but this change is necessary for illusions to be dispelled.

March: Knight of Pentacles, reversed.
It’s time for the burnout. Your single-minded purpose broke. You don’t feel like you have the energy to try to reach your goals anymore. You’re feeling scattered, set adrift, and at the mercy of grifters and charlatans.

April: The Sun, reversed.
Logic and reason are fading. Ignorance is running rampant, and the things that should make sense are a disordered mess. People are short-sighted and cynical, and no one is thinking of our children and the future.

May: Ace of Cups.
You feel a lightening of the spirit as your emotions flow out of you in a torrent. You’ve let out everything that was troubling you, and now you’re ready to channel this fountain into a new passion. You’re falling in love with the world again, dreaming vivid dreams, feeling the poetry of every breath.

June: Six of Cups.
It’s time to reconnect with yourself and why you do what you do. Take a look back to your own youth, and revel in the nostalgia. Feel the fires that burned so strongly inside of you. Let your inner child out to play for a while and remember who you are.

It looks like a rocky six months, but we’re going to get through it, friends. Just hold on, because it’s going to be a bumpy ride until we get our inspiration back.

Hey friends, no reading for this week; I've been sick, and I'm living on the couch with a water bottle and tissues and a heck of a deep chest cough. Catch back up with you on the Solstice!
