Storm's Weekly Breakdown for Sept 4, 2023 – Sept 10, 2023

Overall, the first week of September looks bright. On Monday, before Jupiter turns retrograde in Taurus, he trines Mercury — inspiring us to take an introspective look at our goals and big-picture objectives. This is a great time to explore all the options available to us and make informed choices.

Business opportunities could also be in the cards. iStock 1028489262

However, I recommend you wait until Mercury goes direct on September 15th before signing any documents. Later in the day, Jupiter turns retrograde in Taurus — a period of reflection and refocusing our goals to match our current needs. Taking some time now to review your plans could help ensure they are still aligned with your life’s journey.

On Wednesday, we hit the middle of the Mercury Rx cycle, which started on August 23rd when Mercury went retrograde in Virgo. Normally, when the Sun and Mercury meet, it's a time of lots of chit-chat and planning for the future. But since Mercury is retrograde, this is your chance to have some 'me' time and assess the changes you've gone through since May, when this aspect was last around. Use it wisely to figure out if there are any tweaks you want to make in your life. Now's the time to course correct if you need to!

This weekend is packed with potential, as the Sun trines Jupiter, one of the luckiest and most positive days of the year. Harness this energy to help you reach your long-term objectives or try something new that expands your horizons. Embrace this opportunity to use your creative thought processes and make good things happen! Just be aware on Sunday morning when intense feelings may arise due to the Moon opposing Pluto. Acknowledge your emotions, but don’t let them overpower you.

Tis' the season of opulence!

As we work to release ourselves from the debris of outdated constructs, we can also take a look at our goals and how to be steadfast in our actions towards success. A level of trust is needed from within to work cooperatively with the Divine, so lay down your burdens and follow your heart as you walk into a new season of abundance! At Candle Wick, we offer a plethora of magical tools to assist with setting you on the right path to manifesting a prosperous year. Our Lakshmi and Ganesha candle works wonders in removing obstacles from your path while opening the floodgates of heaven to fulfill your heart's desires. Also, Mercury went into retrograde in the Earth sign of Taurus. Retrogrades are times for us to slow down, re-evaluate, and reflect. This time around, retrograde season is asking us to slow down and re-evaluate what we value in our relationships and business endeavors. With the residual Eclipse energy and a retrograde transiting the cosmos, we can feel quite uncomfortable during this time. Balance the energy with our Mercury Retrograde 'Neutralizer' spray from our Astro Magic Line. Our sprays serve as a practical application to energy work, when burning a candle is unfavorable. Get the tools you need to work this energy in your favor, and ensure your ultimate success.

Teachers make the world go 'round

appleThe image that comes to mind when you hear “teacher” probably depends a lot on your personal experiences; it might call to mind an especially encouraging teacher, or one that put you down in a way you never forgot. You might think of learning a skill at a parent’s side, or an instructor from a yoga class that taught you to enjoy living in your body, or someone in your life that taught you a lesson outside of any kind of formal setting.

We're really just doing the best we can

tightrope walker “In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.” Did you learn this rhyme in school? Columbus Day was first celebrated in 1792 in recognition of 300 years of exploration and development of the North American continent. One of the reasons the holiday continued to be celebrated was to promote the contributions to the American story of Italian immigrants, particularly Catholics, who were often targets of anti-immigrant sentiment.

kit for blog

Ancestor work is one of the oldest, most universal forms of spiritual practice. It includes any way that we acknowledge, honor, or communicate with those that came before us. While ancestor work might be associated in your mind with indigenous cultures, the fact is, we ALL have ancestors – none of us have magically sprung into being! It’s a large part of some mainstream faiths such as Judaism, and anyone can do ancestor work.
