October Snoozescopes
WITH ANGIE BANICKI
Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 19)
Influenced by THE TEMPERANCE
“I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” – Michael Jordan
Rebel rouser! It’s time for you to be the motivator to action! Your pioneering spirit is screaming out! What project can you dive in full force? Just go ahead and try. You are ready! But remember you don’t have to direct everyone. You can focus on what you can do to get things going but let other leaders emerge as well. Or when need be, pass the talking stick to someone who you know wants to step up in their power too. And a big message here is for you to TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. Do not forget about the balance aries. Schedule a massage. Go spend a weekend in nature. Do the things you know you need to SHUT OFF.
Sleep potion: Star gazing is your sleep medicine this month.
Taurus (Apr 20 - May 20)
Influenced by FOUR OF PENTACLES
“God’s dream is that you and I and all of us will realize that we are family, that we are made for togetherness, for goodness, and for compassion.” – Desmond Tutu
Get ready to receive more of your gifts, Taurus. Whether you know it or not, you are an intuitive healer and you are helping more than you know. This month be there for a friend. Let your kids know you are the best sounding board. Let coworkers unload a bit, your ear and kindness will speak volumes. There may be some unexpected money coming your way now or soon too so stay open. Something in these cards feels like you might be down on yourself or frustrated about figuring something out and cards show it’s all coming together. And just as you are meant to show up for others, don’t be afraid to share your fears and worries with a friend or coworker. You might be surprised how much they needed to hear this too.
Sleep potion: Extra baths. Get some fun bath soaps and new products and dive in to help guide and hold your emotions
Gemini (May 21- June 20)
Influenced by EIGHT OF SWORDS
“Once we start to act, hope is everywhere. So instead of looking for hope, look for action. Then, and only then, hope will come.” – Greta Thunburg
Gemini, what are you hiding from yourself? Pretending for others? It’s time to transform and move through what’s been blocking you from more love, more heart, more feeling. So let’s start and look at where you can shift victimhood into empowerment? Perhaps you are putting some of this on someone else? Look beneath the surface. Have deep conversations. This means no planning or strategizing but instead just spilling your guts. BE MESSY. SAY IT ALL. Osho says the hardest place to hide a secret is in the eyes. They are the hardest to control. Can you look yourself or another in the eye and really speak from your heart? This is it. Lean on a scorpio friend to help you unravel if you can! (they are good with secrets!)
Sleep potion: Breath into your heart. When you cuddle into sleep, spend some time with your breath going into your heart.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Influenced by EIGHT OF PENTACLES
“The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis.” – Dante Alighieri
Cancer, you have moved SO much in the recent past. You’ve been getting clearer and understanding your purpose and how to transform your career, your work in ways to feel more balanced and in alignment with what you are meant to be doing. Keep working is the message I get. Keep going. Communication is KEY for you this month. Be curious about how you describe your work to others. Find witty word play and new ways of storytelling. Perhaps this includes writing in your journal to help you get clearer and what you want to share with the world.
Sleep potion: Cuddle with another is the message I get. More snuggles with your partner, your kids or your pets.
Leo (July 23 - Aug 22)
Influenced by 7 OF WANDS
“At the end, the realization is that she had to get to a place in her life where she could drop her guard and make peace with the fact that whether she had a small amount of time, that she had to kind of live it completely through, instead of living by the rules.” – Charlize Theron
I just want to remind you that you will receive what you deserve! And you are your best as Saweetie says ha! This is a month for you to practice saying what you need and want. In full sincerity. Express what it is that you want and deserve. All that said, keep being the compassionate, empathic, caring being that we know you to be! But I just keep getting for you to express your feelings. Say more. Cry more. Let yourself feel. Do not stop yourself from saying it all. And no distractions now. FINALLY the part of you that thinks what’s happening now equates to the future, needs to let go. LET GO OF CONTROLLING THE TIMING of what you want.
Sleep potion: Create a little face, body ritual before bed. Perhaps you find your fav oils to slather on. We like Osea. Whatever makes you feel soft and sleepy.
Virgo (Aug 23 - Sep 22)
Influenced by FIVE OF WANDS
“You learn a lot about someone when you share a meal together”. – Anthony Bourdain
Virgo, this month wants to help you chill out and relax and remind you that you can be silly and successful! Both! That’s you! Traveling to your favorite city feels like a good plan this month. Can you get yourself there or plan to get there soon? Going away or visualizing it is going to help remind you to believe in yourself now. You can trust your instincts now. TRUST THAT! So before you need to enact huge changes, let yourself feel into and trust what actions need to be taken. Those harder conversations, make sure you are taking time to really feel into what you feel and need from the relationship, the work or the person.
Sleep potion: Homemade meals are going to support your sleep cycles this month. Notice what you are putting in and what feels right.
LIBRA (Sept 23 - Oct 22)
Influenced by EMPRESS
“I have learned that as long as I hold fast to my beliefs and values – and follow my own moral compass – then the only expectations I need to live up to are my own.” – Michelle Obama
Wow Libra, you are seriously giving nature god/goddess energy this month. Notice what is being drawn to you. And don’t be afraid to push back. Use your boundaries as a power tool. Demand growth and excellence from those around you. You can make an extraordinary impact on those around you now. You are a leader and seeing where you can be an optimistic force of change for those who need it. USE YOUR VOICE and inspire us all. And truly use your voice to ask for what you want from others – and guess what, you can do in a warm and inviting tone. Also PS you are very fertile if you want to try and make a baby this month!
Sleep potion: Buy yourself a sleep present! A nightie, a candle, a sleep mask
SCORPIO (Oct 23 - Nov 21)
Influenced by 10 OF WANDS
“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.” – Albert Camus
It’s all about sensuality Scorpio. It’s time for you to get back into and feel your body. What is your body telling you it wants? You may be feeling you know the relationship, job or place you want to leave. The message of this month is to make sure you really acknowledge your deeper feelings. Take yourself out of your mind and FEEL into what your body is telling you now. What is it feeling? Can you do some yoga, some workouts that get you back into your body? Get into nature and meditation. Whatever stops you from thinking of answers and outcomes and just listens to what your body is saying. Go listen to IN-Q and notice what comes up.
Sleep potion: Unlock your mind and be in your body.
Sagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 21)
Influenced by 10 OF SWORDS
“Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.” – Kurt Vonnegut
Sag, let’s start with how much you have to be grateful for. Your family, friends and network of support feels so heartfelt and a beautiful holding place for you. So whatever is coming up that is making your mind frustrated – work, life, just frustration at where you are in life. Well, the card's message for you is all about talking through things. What needs to be expressed to help cause change? Identify who it is you need to talk to – a partner, a boss, a client or in this case it might even be a therapist who can just listen and help you sort out what’s coming up. Your voice feels more important than ever for you to get out what is frustrating you. This is going to shift SO much so please speak it into being!
Sleep potion: Daydream before you go into your sleep dreams.
Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 19)
Influenced by DEATH
Just don’t give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong. – Ella Fitzgerald
Cappy this is your month to express yourself through the arts. You have or are breaking through a block that has held you from going out and being your brightest self. Don’t worry you don’t need to rush into what to do now with all this change. Just let yourself bask in moving through what you were afraid to do. Change is happening for you now and you just ride through it. Your dreamy, ethereal side is wanting some nurturing and self care now so go find some baths to enjoy or go for an ocean swim or walk. Tap into what you liked to do in your youth to relax and go try that now.
Sleep potion: Try Ashwagandha or golden milk. Or both! Give yourself sweet relief.
Aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 18)
Influenced by FOUR OF CUPS
“Animals praise a good day, a good hunt. They praise rain if they're thirsty. That’s prayer. They don’t live an unconscious life, they simply have no language to talk about these things. But they are grateful for the good things that come along.” – Mary Oliver
Take a beat aquarius. Rest. Don’t rush in. you are so close. You are getting glimpses of your new life but the best thing you can do now is just dip into your feelings and notice what you are feeling. You are also learning to express your feelings and your anger with care. All those feelings are coming through to take you into this next phase of life. This is beautiful unless you push too fast too far. Just let yourself be in what is happening. It feels so wonderful to have life opening up for you in new ways now. I will just keep saying it – keep speaking from your heart this month and all will be perfect.
Sleep potion: Buy yourself flowers! You can buy for your love too but you first! Keep them where you can see them when you sleep.
Pisces (Feb 19 - Mar 20)
Influenced by QUEEN OF PENTACLES
“Even with all our technology and the inventions that make modern life so much easier than it once was, it takes just one big natural disaster to wipe all that away and remind us that, here on Earth, we’re still at the mercy of nature.” – Neil deGrasse Tyson
First point of business – work on some extra healing of stuff with your mom Pisces! This is up for review to help you call in more of what you crave out of life so just do the work. Reading and writing are an important piece of October for you as well. So get to it. fill up your noggin with delicious prose. Let your imagination run wild in a book or in a story you are writing. Your imagination is pulling at you this month so let yourself dive deep. If you are in a relationship, work on speaking to each other in new fun ways. And as much as you can speak up about the triggers and hopefully find a way to get to the point of smiling. If you are single, be open to your creative projects showing you love interests. Dive deep in your writing, filming, creative storylines!
Sleep potion: Do some eye gazing before bed. Either with your partner or at yourself in the mirror.
