I felt like handing today over to a tarot reading. The cards that popped up make sense given the current astrological aspects.

The 6 of Cups reversed is suggesting that we are still having difficulty extracting our hearts and minds from the shadows of the past. Wiping the slate clean and moving forward healthy and whole is a more terrifying prospect than dealing with the same old emotional injuries and upsets. Remaining wounded has its advantages. It provides an excuse for inaction, and it is a convenient scapegoat for failure if our risks don't pay off.

The 2 of Cups reversed is suggesting that our relationships are being challenged. There is a pull to remain addicted to past karmic patterns. At the same time, there is a pull to charge into the future courageously and honestly. This is a reflection of Venus and Neptune in Pisces (content with familiar illusions) squaring Mars and the Moon in Sagittarius (courageously fighting for emotional truth).

Bottom Line: If you find yourself in some sort of confrontation today, try to determine whether you are defending the status quo or finally taking responsibility for your baggage.
