The Equinox is nearly upon us! We are in a period of transition and the time for balance has come: night and day, water and land, material and immaterial, life and death. Each wrapping into the other endlessly - whether in struggle or embrace - two polarities folded together in a non-dualistic whole.

As the nights grow longer and the harvest is brought in from the fields, you find yourself keenly aware of this Möbius Strip existence and the path you walk along it. When kept in balance, a sense of harmony prevails. However, this calm is not wrought through placidity. Instead it must be actively sought through speech, thought, and action. A constant stream of carefully titrated change creating the illusion of stability.

The voice is one such tool for maintaining this balance. The voice holds great power, and you may find that yours has become particularly potent. Like the Tarot’s Magician, your words make the internal manifest in the external world.

The time has come to assess how you are using your voice in the world. Used wisely, and with an eye toward balance, your words hold particular power to transform the world around you in a way that seems magical. How will you strike a thoughtful balance?

What will you speak into the world?

Remember - Words can wound or bring succor in equal measure. Intrinsically linked, there is no way to avoid either in their entirety. The greater the light, the deeper the shadow.

You are the Magician, but Temperance is your guide.
