Our week starts with the Moon in Aquarius which is a sign of innovation and change. The Moon speaks to us our our feelings and with Aquarius it can be about the collective, and unexpected things as this sign’s ruler is Uranus. Aquarius can help us be a bit more detached and less reactive to drama and hopefully looking at the big picture.
At the beginning of the week, Fortitude, the Goddess Durga the Goddess of Manifestation key card 8 in the Major Arcana traditionally Strength comes out from the Beautiful Creatures Tarot. It’s a reminder to start our week with fortitude and strength. In the dictionary fortitude is mental and emotional strength in facing difficulty, adversity, danger, or temptation courageously. The Hindu goddess Durga is pictured with her Tiger. She is our warrior and reminds us we have the strength to overcome any of our fears or the unknown. We see the six hands of Durga holding the pink lotuses and the Sudarshan Chakra, the conch shell atop her baton symbolizing the cosmic sound of the OM vibration which removes negative energy and restores peace along with the trident, and sword to cut or break away from danger or fear.
The Tiger sitting next to her offers us her medicine of passion, sensuality, willpower, courage and being the creator of our life and everything in it. Fear can be useful when we are in physical danger but it’s not so useful in our day to day activities. Fears, self-doubt, and worry keep us stuck and unable to move forward and keep us in scarcity and lack consciousness They also can cause us to be unwell by negative beliefs and thoughts that affect our mind, body, and soul. Fear costs us from moving forward. One of the ways to move beyond fear is by quieting our mind through Meditation. It’s is a simple but oh so power tool to help us more through fear, reduce our stress and anxiety and improve our health. Our Tiger along with Durga helps us gain strength to over come our fears this week and remind us of one of our superpowers, meditation and our mind to choose courage and fortitude over fear so that we can be of service in our life.
