After recent voluminous movements and energy shifts, and the urge to just stop! The energy now softens, inviting you to slow down and reconnect with yourself.</p><p>It will be a moment to remember as the inner softening is felt in the chest, then throughout the rest of the body. You may feel moments of sensitivity, followed by a sense of calm. It is not instability, or even any kind of negativity. It is your energy system recalibrating. Allow the waves to settle without reacting to each one.</p><p>Balance returns when you stop trying to control every feeling and instead allow them to pass naturally.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Description of Energy</strong></h3><p>Emotional awareness will be heightened for just about everyone. The good news is, it doesn&#8217;t require action. Not every feeling needs a response. Some are simply passing through, clearing space within. If you feel it, then let it move through without stopping it or forcing it.</p><p>The more you allow without resistance, the quicker stability returns. Peace is not something you chase this week. It is something you simply allow.</p><p></p><div><hr></div><h4>Excellent time for an Energy Clearing Session - <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">book yours with Lori Ann</a></h4><div><hr></div><p></p><h3><strong>Grounding and Clarity Suggestions</strong></h3><p>Gentle breathwork will help regulate emotional flow and bring the body back into balance.</p><p>Spending quiet time alone, especially near water or in still environments, will support calmness. Soft music or silence will help settle the mind.</p><p>Hydration will also support emotional regulation. Keep your system clear and flowing.</p><p></p><h2><strong>Element Focus</strong></h2><h4><strong>Fire - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius<br></strong></h4><p>What a perfect week to slow your pace. Stay centered to know when to take the next step, because not every moment requires action. Allow your inner stillness to guide you.</p><p></p><h4><strong>Air - Aquarius, Gemini, Libra<br></strong> </h4><p>It is a week where avoiding overanalyzing your emotions will be your soft pillow of sweetness and grounding. Allow them to move through without needing the reason why or where it will lead in the future. Just be in the present and feel your heart space.</p><p></p><h4><strong>Water - Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio<br></strong> </h4><p>A week of emotions rising and falling naturally is rolling in. Yes, that means just days after the New Moon&#8217;s recent appearance, you may still want to cry or have other deep emotional releases. Trust the release and allow yourself to soften. </p><p></p><h4><strong>Earth - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn<br></strong> </h4><p>Stability returns through simple routines. Keep your environment calm and supportive.</p><p></p><h4><em><strong>&#8220;Feed the mind. Heal the body.

<em>sovereignty.</em></p><p>It&#8217;s being spoken in quiet circles and louder spaces, often with intensity behind it.<br>But somewhere along the way, the meaning has become stretched&#8230; diluted&#8230; and at times, overcomplicated.</p><p>So let&#8217;s bring it back to something real.</p><p>Sovereignty is not a title you earn.<br>It&#8217;s not a position you reach.<br>It&#8217;s not something granted to you by anyone or anything outside of yourself.</p><p><em><strong>It&#8217;s something you return to.</strong></em></p><p>At its simplest, sovereignty is this:<br>You live from your own internal knowing, without needing permission to do so.</p><p>That doesn&#8217;t mean you become closed off or disconnected.<br>It means you stop negotiating your truth just to maintain comfort, approval, or familiarity.</p><p>Most people don&#8217;t lose their sovereignty all at once.<br>It happens quietly, <em><strong>one moment at a time.</strong></em></p><p>A moment where you knew something felt off, and for some reason, you still stayed.<br>A time you said yes, when everything in you said no.<br>A situation where keeping the peace mattered more than being honest.</p><p>Over time, those moments stack.<br>And what was once clear&#8230; becomes confusing.</p><p>Not because your inner knowing disappeared,<br>But because it was overridden.</p><p>Sovereignty is what begins to rise when you stop doing that.</p><h3><strong>Where Does It Lead?</strong></h3><p>This is where many misunderstand it.</p><p>Sovereignty is often spoken about as if it leads to constant peace, ease, or freedom without friction.</p><p>That&#8217;s not the full picture.</p><p>What it actually leads to is clarity.</p><p>And clarity changes things.</p><p>You begin to see people, patterns, and situations without the filters you once used to stay comfortable.</p><p><em><strong>You make decisions more cleanly, but not always more easily.</strong></em></p><p><em><strong>&#8220;You know when it&#8217;s off and when it&#8217;s right.&#8221;<br></strong></em></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link

We will review both upright and reversed positions for all our subscribers, with deeper meanings and how to use them in everyday life, within our paid community.</p><p>The tarot weekly message discusses the real meaning behind the tarot card, the Eight of Pentacles. A very positive card when looking at energy and effort, but it can also represent obstacles when reversed.  Follow our guidance and, at the end, pull one card from your tarot deck to confirm if this is your message.</p><p>Ah, we love to love the eight of pentacles. Although it represents hard work until the wee hours of the night, it also holds more positivity than we might think. There is a sense of pride and accomplishment for the efforts. Equally, there is a downside to this card. We will go more in-depth now.</p><p>The Eight of Pentacles tarot card is not about talent. No, it isn&#8217;t, but that is the recurring message out there through social land. So let&#8217;s really look at what this image and meaning are saying.</p><p>The card says if things are pulling on you, and your intuition says yes, then listen. Follow your gut and throw yourself into your soul&#8217;s purpose. You are on your way to a different path than before. Pentacles encompass everything on the material plane, including career, finance, Romance, and Relationships. The best part is that you have been working hard on mind, body, and soul, and it shows in your actions.</p><p>The planning is done, at least a rough draft of whatever is calling you, and mastery of securing your foundation will arrive soon.</p><p><strong>It is about creating consistency and repetition.</strong></p><p>What you return to&#8230; again and again&#8230; becomes what defines you as mastery of that craft comes through.</p><h2>Upright Meaning</h2><div><hr></div><p><em><strong>Book your <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">private session with Lori Ann</a> to find and clear blockages or a guided session.</strong></em></p><div><hr></div><p>The Eight of Pentacles represents dedication, refinement, and steady progress. It is saying you have spent your time well. Applying focus to something that grows you, your life, is happening, and it is showing little by little.</p><p>It is rarely an overnight success. Here are the areas now affected by your diligence in pursuing what you&#8217;ve been working on. Quietly, in the background of life, there you are, enhancing, growing, and more:</p><p>Earned mastery <em>(not handed to you - a victory in itself)</em></p><p>Focused work and skill-building</p><p>Commitment to improvement</p><p>Paying attention to detail</p><p>Showing up consistently, even when it&#8217;s challenging</p><p>Tarot card, Eight of Pentacles, appears when you are building something real. You&#8217;ve seen the visual above and are now implementing it into the earth, grounding you with each gesture taken along the way. Most likely, others will not see it yet, not until you&#8217;ve crossed the threshold to receiving the rewards, which follow shortly after.</p><h2>Reversed Meaning</h2><p>In reverse, the energy becomes scattered or discouraged. It may be difficult to complete tasks before starting new ones. An imbalance is occurring that can create the following:</p><p>Lack of focus or inconsistency</p><p>Starting but not finishing</p><p>Feeling unmotivated or distracted</p><p>Doing the work without purpose</p><p>With so much energy and effort going into this, fatigue can and will set in. A healthy diet and fitness routine are essential additions to the Eight of Pentacles list.</p><p></p><h4><strong>WATCH: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@AscendingSoulsJourney">&#8220;Why Souls Are Tired&#8221;</a> on my YouTube Channel, airing Tuesday 3/24/26. Click the bell to get notified.</strong></h4><p></p><p>Remember, overworking or overgiving will never work for you. You&#8217;ve already been there - experienced it all and know that it has nothing to do with inability, but rather misalignment or loss of direction.</p><p><em><strong>Feel free to <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">book a session with Lori Ann</a> to find and clear blockages or a guided session.</strong></em></p><h2><strong>How to Use This Card to Your Advantage is below.</strong></h2><p>Consider joining our paid community and using the energy and other tools as a guide for your life.</p>

upright and reversed positions, for all our subscribers, with the meanings and how to use it in our paid community.</p><p>Tarot Weekly Message discusses the real meaning behind the tarot card, the Empress. A very positive card when it pertains to creating and living a life you love, but it can also represent obstacles if in reverse. Follow our guidance and, in closing, <em>pull one card from your deck to confirm if this is your message.</em></p><p>The Empress was delivered today for you to gain information and share messages with those ready to hear it. It pertains to self-confidence, connecting directly to creation, and emotional nourishment.</p><p>The energy of this card never forces. It doesn&#8217;t push.</p><p>It draws in the cravings and abundance.</p><p>Moving through your energy field like swirling heat from a hot cup of coffee, it asks you to notice what you&#8217;ve been giving&#8230; and what you&#8217;ve been neglecting.</p><h2>Upright Meaning</h2><p>The Empress represents creation, nourishment, and the kind of abundance that grows when something is genuinely cared for.</p><p>This is not forced growth; it&#8217;s gentle and specifically intended for a purpose.</p><p>This is a natural expansion that provides cues and clues for each step.</p><p>Deep connection to self and body.</p><p>Creativity, ideas, or projects are beginning to take form.</p><p>Nurturing energy, toward yourself or others.</p><p>Receiving, not just giving.</p><p>This tarot card often appears when something is ready to grow, but only if it&#8217;s supported properly. The Empress has taken each lesson from life and planted the growth portion only in her life. No more soiled relationships. No more mismatched communities.</p><p>Her strength lies in continuing to give to others, but only if it makes sense and feels right.</p><p><em><strong>Attention matters here.</strong></em></p><h2>Reversed Meaning</h2><p>In reverse, the Empress reveals an imbalance in giving and receiving. You may find yourself experiencing some of the following:</p><p>Overgiving and feeling drained</p><p>Neglecting your own needs</p><p>Creative blocks or lack of inspiration</p><p>Seeking validation instead of self-trust</p><p>The Empress has had a fair share of the unsuccessful, but it isn&#8217;t about failure.</p><p>It&#8217;s about a disconnection from your own source.</p><p>Something within you is asking to be replenished.</p><p><em><strong>Feel free to <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">book a session with Lori Ann</a> to find and clear blockages or a guided session.</strong></em></p><h3>How to Use This Card to Your Advantage is below.</h3><p>Consider joining our paid community and using the energy and other tools as a guide for your life.</p>

This week's strength position is maintaining inner balance while allowing life to move around you. When you stay centered, clarity naturally follows.</p><p>Expansion is quietly forming ahead. What may appear uncertain now is simply the energy reorganizing itself before the next step in growth.</p><h3><strong>Description of Energy</strong></h3><p>At times this week, you may feel as though the dream and the actual achievement are drifting apart. This sensation is temporary. The energy may test your focus by creating small moments of doubt or distraction.</p><p>Stay steady. The dream has not disappeared. It is simply asking you to remain grounded as the path continues to form.</p><p>Your center is the most powerful place to operate from this week.</p><h3><strong>Grounding and Clarity Suggestions</strong></h3><p>Hydration will support both physical and energetic balance. Adding lemon to water or drinking coconut water can help restore clarity and vitality.</p><p>Breathwork will be especially effective during moments of overwhelm. Using <strong><a href="https://payhip.com/AscendingSoulsJourneyLLC">Ascending Breath&#8482;</a></strong> (insert link) helps clear mental clutter while gently restoring motivation and focus.</p><p>Even a few minutes of slow breathing or quiet humming will bring you back into alignment when the mind begins to wander.</p><div><hr></div><h4><em>Private sessions with Lori Ann are now open.

Channel your energy into meaningful progress rather than rushing through tasks.</p><p><strong>Air - Aquarius, Gemini, Libra<br></strong>Overthinking may take over if you spend too long in mental space. Humming or focused breathing will instantly return you to your center.</p><p><strong>Water - Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio</strong><br>Emotions may run high as the week begins. If tears come, allow them. Release clears the path for forward movement.</p><p><strong>Earth - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn</strong><br>Your senses are heightened now.

After recent clearing and emotional shifts, the atmosphere now begins to stabilize.

You may notice yourself returning to tasks that once felt overwhelming, or feeling motivated to organize areas of life that were left incomplete. The key this week is patience. Progress is occurring step by step, not through sudden leaps.</p><h3><strong>Description of Energy</strong></h3><p>Clarity strengthens when attention is placed on the present moment. Instead of searching too far ahead, focus on what is immediately in front of you. Small, consistent actions will produce greater results than trying to solve everything at once.</p><p>This is also a week for strengthening inner stability. When the mind becomes scattered, return to the breath and bring your awareness back into the body. Balance grows through presence.</p><h4><strong>Grounding and Clarity Suggestions:</strong></h4><p><em>Keep your daily rhythm simple and steady.</em></p><p>Gentle breathing practices will help maintain emotional balance and prevent unnecessary tension. Even a few slow, intentional breaths throughout the day can restore clarity.</p><p>Walking outdoors or spending quiet time near nature will support mental calm and emotional grounding. Allow natural surroundings to reset your internal pace.</p><p>If your mind begins racing with ideas or worries, pause and return your focus to one task at a time. Simplicity will guide you through this week&#8217;s energy.</p><h2><strong>Element Focus</strong></h2><p><strong>Fire - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius<br></strong>Motivation strengthens this week. Direct your energy toward projects that have been waiting for completion.</p><p><strong>Air - Aquarius, Gemini, Libra<br></strong>Mental clarity improves when you reduce distractions. Give your ideas space to develop naturally.</p><p><strong>Water - Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio<br></strong>Emotional balance returns gradually. Allow calm moments to restore your inner confidence.</p><p><strong>Earth - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn<br></strong>Practical progress becomes easier now. Organization and steady routines will bring a sense of control and accomplishment.</p><p><strong>The week emphasizes the quote:</strong></p><h4><em><strong>&#8220;Feed the mind, Heal the body, Grow the soul&#8221; by LA Gonzales</strong></em></h4><div><hr></div><h4 style="text-align: center;">$50 Private readings with Lori Ann are available for a limited time. </h4><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Order Yours Here&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney"><span>Order Yours Here</span></a></p><div><hr></div><h2><strong>Tarot Focus of the Week: </strong></h2><h3><em><strong>Six of Wands &#8212; Recognition</strong></em></h3><p></p><p>The six of wands card reminds you that progress deserves acknowledgment.

Purpose</strong></h3><p>A single mother found a new church for herself and her two young children. It felt good to belong somewhere again. The music echoed softly in the halls. The children laughed easily. The air felt hopeful.</p><p>She volunteered to sing with the children&#8217;s group. A few months later, Pastor Dave approached her with an idea. &#8220;We&#8217;d like you to lead a single-parent group.&#8221; He emphasized she could conduct the group in the other office. The materials were ready. The curriculum was organized. The room was available.</p><p><strong>What was missing were the people.</strong></p><p>The first year, five showed up, all women.</p><p></p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Ascending Souls Journey is a reader-supported publication.

Set out chairs. Made coffee. Smiled. But she drove home some evenings, wondering if it mattered.</p><p>As a single mother, she valued her time. She began to feel she wasn&#8217;t very good at this. Maybe someone else could draw more people in. Maybe she wasn&#8217;t the right one.</p><p>She spoke with Dave. &#8220;I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m doing this well,&#8221; she admitted. He listened, then gently said, &#8220;Stay with it. Don&#8217;t measure it yet. Purpose takes its time.&#8221;</p><p>The second year, three more joined.</p><p>The third year, there were twelve. Two of them were men. Now the mother could feel a change taking place. Something about the room felt different now. Lighter. Alive. Conversations lingered after closing prayers. People stayed longer than they used to.</p><p><em>Then her life shifted.</em></p><p>The mother and her children had to move hundreds of miles away. She packed boxes, folded memories into quiet corners, and said her goodbyes. On her final Sunday, they stood outside the church doors. The community waved as she drove away.</p><p>Four months later, her phone rang.

retrograde, and this one is a doozy, well, at least until fall retrograde. All zodiac signs must proceed with caution as a blurr hovers over these people who boast without backup. The familiar will taunt and tempt, drawing you back into a loop. We suggest: &#8220;Don&#8217;t fall for it!&#8221;</p><p></p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Ascending Souls Journey is a reader-supported publication.

As the pressure of everyday life mounts, a powerful shift grows in silence at the right time. From starbursts to sunbeams, we will see the signs to direct us into a proper close-out of the old, as &#8220;Welcome&#8221; signs show up at every doorstep.</p><p>Use this time to practice using your intuition to guide you through the struggles. The answers are always there, especially if you feel stuck. Now is the time to present yourself to the world in a very big way.</p><h2>Zodiac Signs March Horoscopes</h2><p><strong>Note:</strong> The horoscope is a map of the sky at the time of your birth. It shows where the planets were in relation to each other and helps us understand how they will affect you throughout life. It&#8217;s always best to read your <em>sun, moon, and rising signs</em> to capture all possibilities and messages.</p><p>See what the stars have in store for each zodiac sign this month.</p><h2><strong>Aries</strong></h2><p>Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, and it&#8217;s symbolized by a ram. The ruling planet for Aries is Mars, which might explain why these folks are known for being energetic, enthusiastic, and spontaneous.</p><p>An unexplainable amount of courage is getting ready to show up at the right time. Aries will be able to get something off the ground, but with an added kick of power. If you are scheduled to speak to a group, large or small, the message or information will be heard. This will lead to a rare opportunity. While busy getting in the groove, someone may come in and bring some love to your day. Stay healthy and rested through the month. Life will feel good!</p><h4><em>Order your private session for clarity and direction, <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">here</a>.</em></h4><h2><strong>Taurus</strong></h2><p>As a fixed earth sign, Tauruses are grounded and practical. You have great stamina and can go the distance to achieve your goals. You can also be stubborn at times, so you must learn how to let go of things that don&#8217;t serve your higher purpose or fit into your big-picture vision for yourself.</p><p>A feeling of victory comes at the beginning of the month. After a well-deserved break, good news arrives with your name on the address. Sensations of higher hearing abilities and an inner knowing ramp up in the middle of the month. The powerful increase will help any bull ready to get down to business and open a new direction. Focus on the outcome while staying grounded to achieve optimal results. A romantic gesture comes from the most unimaginable, and yet welcomed, place. Manifest! Create! Grow!</p><h2><strong>Gemini</strong></h2><p>Gemini is a sign of the Air element, and it&#8217;s ruled by Mercury. Geminis are known for their charm, wit, and communication skills. They&#8217;re very versatile and can adapt to many different situations. Gemini has an intellectual approach to life that helps them succeed at anything they put their mind to.</p><p>Something thought of as volatile calms down, giving busy Gemini time to get rested. This situation is changing, but it will take a short while to complete. Peace overcomes the brokenhearted who are ready to start a new romance. Abundant rains over the twins to say thank you for something completed long ago. Going with the synchronistic flow will have positive results. Remember to write notes for reminders and set your cosmic alarm in May. An alternative route will provide financial security. A winning month!</p><h4><em>Order your private session for clarity and direction, <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">here</a>.</em></h4><h2><strong>Cancer</strong></h2><p>Cancer is a sign of the zodiac, and the Moon rules it, and also Cardinal signs, meaning they&#8217;re outgoing and energetic. They&#8217;re also feminine in nature, making them good listeners with a nurturing side.</p><p>The element associated with Cancer is water; therefore, white is its associated color. May will bring out the softer side of this zodiac sign, fostering emotional bonding and enhancing all types of relationships. New projects, especially in the fine arts, will begin to bring back the joy that has been missing over the past several months. Meeting up with new groups and romantic encounters will shine blissfully, attracting more positive attention and outcomes. Go For It!</p><h4><em>Order your private session for clarity and direction, <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">here</a>.</em></h4><h2><strong>Leo</strong></h2><p>Leo is a fixed sign, meaning they are loyal and strong-willed. They love being the center of attention and don&#8217;t like sharing their spotlight with anyone else. They are passionate, creative, and energetic people with big hearts who love to share them with others.</p><p>Leos are generous and warmhearted, but can be overly proud at times or overly sensitive when they feel hurt by others&#8217; words or actions. May will be a temptation to revisit something or someone that falls in that category. Staying strong in the authentic truth and details will land this zodiac sign in a new endeavor, promoting positive mental, emotional, and physical health. Follow your heart, and it will lead to prosperity. Pay attention to finances and security to make wise choices for the future.</p><h4><em>Order your private session for clarity and direction, <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">here</a>.</em></h4><h2><strong>Virgo</strong></h2><p>The sixth astrological sign in the Zodiac lineup is Virgo. The sign represents purity, service, and perfectionism. Those born under this sign are known for their uncanny ability to go beyond with critical thinking and to analyze situations logically. Virgos are very analytical and practical; they have a strong sense of duty when it comes to helping others with their work or personal lives.</p><p>May will bring a newfound excitement in focusing on oneself. The entire month will highlight love, creativity, finances, and healthy habits, replacing any negative patterns, including old belief systems that failed in the past. Your memory of this person will shift toward a loved one, family member, or friend, and you will realize there was a sketchy lie that put a divide between the two of you. A surprise phone call or email will lead to further discovery, allowing a conversation to rekindle with a person held dear to the heart. Focus on finding a new lifestyle change to enhance the new inner glow of abundance.</p><h4><em>Order your private session for clarity and direction, <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">here</a>.</em></h4><h2><strong>Libra</strong></h2><p>As a Libra, you are known for your charm and grace, and are also an idealist who believes in the power of love to bring peace and harmony to the world. Although you can be indecisive sometimes, you don&#8217;t let that stop you from pursuing justice or fairness wherever needed.</p><p>As an air sign, Libras are ruled by Venus (the planet of beauty), which explains why they will have such a strong sense of aesthetics and style-these traits that come naturally to them this month! If there&#8217;s one thing about your personality that stands out above all others, it&#8217;s probably your ability to balance opposite sides at once: You like things fair but also want them balanced; sometimes this means being diplomatic, but other times standing up for yourself; either way works as long as everyone gets what they want out of life! May will bring all the fun and balance in life, creating new memories that align with inner truth, family, and relationships. Smile bright and bring in the love!</p><h4><em>Order your private session for clarity and direction, <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">here</a>.</em></h4><h2><strong>Scorpio</strong></h2><p>Scorpio lines up as the eighth sign of the zodiac. It&#8217;s associated with the constellation Scorpio, and its element is water. This sign represents intensity, passion, and strength, qualities reflected in its intense personality and physical appearance.</p><p>Scorpios are known for being loyal friends who will do anything to help someone they care about. They&#8217;re also very protective because they want everyone around them to feel safe and secure at all times; this desire stems from their own insecurity about what could happen if they were ever alone or unprotected by someone else (usually another Scorpio). March will bring the love of sharing details about life with others, whether it&#8217;s good news or bad news; they&#8217;ll just want people around them all the time! Laughter fills voids. Did someone say transform? And so it is!</p><p></p><h4><em>Order your private session for clarity and direction, <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">here</a>.</em></h4><p></p><h2><strong>Sagittarius</strong></h2><p>Sagittarius is number nine in the zodiac lineup. Its symbol is a centaur, which represents wisdom and knowledge. Sagittarians are known for their optimism, open-mindedness, passion, and honesty. They&#8217;re also known for being impatient with those who aren&#8217;t as quick-witted as they are! The best qualities of Sagittarius include their creativity and adventurous spirit; however, their worst characteristics include being too blunt or tactless at times.</p><p>Like it or not, May will bring in both sides of Sagittarius. The planets are aligning to offer a helping hand in creating a metamorphosis in personal views and values. Instant karmic rewards appear, giving a zesty twist to boredom and waking up the sleepyheads. Focus on dreams, wishes, and new projects to collect the good stuff toward the end of the month. Watch out for overeating white carbs with no value while finding new ways to use herbs for fun flavoring and healthy gains.</p><h2><strong>Capricorn</strong></h2><p>You know that Capricorn is the tenth astrological sign in the Zodiac, but do you know what it means to be born under this zodiac sign? A goat represents Capricorn, and its element is Earth. The sun&#8217;s position in Capricorn from December 21 to January 19 means that if you were born during this time period and have a birthday between these dates, then congratulations! You&#8217;re officially part of this amazing zodiac sign!</p><p>Like all other signs, there are positive traits associated with being born under Capricorn, and this month will show more good and radiance from within. The plants move in a perfect position for growth in finances and enhancing relationships. A long time in waiting while others smile with a tinge of jealousy because they&#8217;ll wish they were a Capricorn. Spice up the palette with exotic dishes and hold onto your heart while dancing the Cha Cha with someone special. It&#8217;s an overall great month for enjoying all aspects of life with little financial output. Restore peace and let high energy shift the outcome!</p><h4><em>Order your private session for clarity and direction, <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">here</a>.</em></h4><h2><strong>Aquarius</strong></h2><p>Aquarius is a fixed air sign, noted as the eleventh sign in the zodiac constellation, ruled by Uranus, the planet of innovation and originality. The best traits for an Aquarius are their intelligence, compassion, and sense of humor. The worst traits include being too blunt or tactless at times; they may also be detached from other people&#8217;s feelings because they&#8217;re so focused on their own thoughts.</p><p>Aquarians make great friends because they&#8217;re always willing to lend an ear when someone needs someone to talk to! May will be a reversed dynamic for the water bearers who have over-given to a family or friend relationship. A turnaround in Aquas favor! Someone causing blockages in money and romance will suddenly share their secret as they run out the door. Finally, the blessings will begin to trickle in before the door shuts; an excellent time for a guest appearance or the unveiling of a new project. Focus on mind, body, and inner spiritual guidance, and let your dreams come true! Did we mention romance, too? (Like it or not, it&#8217;s coming)</p><h4><em>Order your private session for clarity and direction, <a href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney">here</a>.</em></h4><h2><strong>Pisces</strong></h2><p>You are a Pisces, which means that you have a strong imagination, compassion, and kindness. You can be very intuitive. You love to travel and are often seen as gypsies or nomads by those who don&#8217;t know you well. Pisces are sensitive people who take everything in their lives very personally. They will go out of their way for others, even if it means putting themselves in harm&#8217;s way, because they feel so strongly about helping others in need!</p><p>The stars say that this month is going to be a great time for Pisces. You&#8217;re going to have opportunities that you can&#8217;t pass up, and if you take them, then they will lead you down a very exciting path indeed! But be careful not to let yourself get carried away; remember that there are always consequences for our actions - even if we don&#8217;t always see them right away. No matter what happens, there will be joyous reunions and travel involved. Romantic destinations are favored toward the end of the month, even if it&#8217;s a weekend getaway (hubba hubba).</p><p>More Reads:</p><p><a href="https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/p/the-gifts-you-were-born-with-are">The Gifts You Were Born With Are Your Guides</a></p><p><a href="https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/p/living-in-inner-peace">Living In Inner Peace</a></p><p><a href="https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/p/astrology-forecast-for-february-2026">Astrology Forecast For February 2026</a></p><p></p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Ascending Souls Journey is a reader-supported publication.

Functioning in this energy creates communities, structures, and other authority roles, always leading to helping humanity in some way.</p><p>It does not mean lead by force.</p><p>It does mean lead by presence.</p><p>With your energetic vibrations and frequencies.</p><p>In the harshest climates on earth, this creature survives not through dominance but through intuition. The inner knowing, endurance, and trust in its own rhythm. It stands when others would retreat. It moves when instinct says move.</p><p><strong>There is always protection for what matters without needing approval from the crowd.</strong></p><p></p><h2>This week calls you to the Emperor Penguin, with the same steady leadership.</h2><p>Not from the loud kind or the ego. Not the kind that requires proving yourself.</p><p>The kind that rises from self-respect.</p><p>You may be facing a challenge right now. Something that tests your patience, confidence, or sense of direction. Instead of rushing or doubting, the Rising Oracle asks you to stand firm in what you already know. Your intuition has been speaking clearly.</p><p></p><h3><strong>The question is,</strong> will<strong> you trust it enough to lead with it?</strong></h3><p>Leadership in your life may look like setting a boundary.</p><p>Making a decision that others don&#8217;t understand.</p><p>Or finally choosing yourself without guilt.</p><p><em>continued ~</em></p><div><hr></div><h3><em>Private Readings with Lori Ann are now Open</em></h3><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Book Yours Here&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney"><span>Book Yours Here</span></a></p><div><hr></div><h2></h2><p>No matter which you choose, your self-esteem grows each time you follow your inner guidance rather than waiting for permission.</p><p>The Emperor Penguin reminds you that resilience isn&#8217;t built in comfort.

The Rising Oracle has shared what is to be.</p><p>Stand tall this week.</p><p>Not in defense.</p><p>With absolute certainty.</p><p>Continue below: <strong>Important questions to find and begin to master these characteristics, plus your weekly journal prompt and affirmation</strong>.</p><p></p><h3><strong>You may like these recent posts:</strong></h3><p><a href="https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/p/walking-the-vatican-as-a-spiritually">Walking the Vatican as a Spiritually Aware Woman</a></p><p><a href="https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/p/decisions-based-on-thoughts-or-soul">Decisions Based on Thoughts or Soul</a></p><p><a href="https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/p/living-in-inner-peace">Living In Inner Peace</a></p>

Woman<br></strong><em>Founding Member Reflection</em></p><p>This is a personal travel reflection I wanted to share with those walking closely within this circle.</p><p>There is something deeply fulfilling about honoring a lifelong dream.<br>Not just the dream itself, but the courage it takes to follow the quiet pull toward it. For me, travel has always been more than movement across land. It is a soulful experience. A way to nurture the inner child while also meeting the woman I have become. And this trip showed me everything about me.</p>

space for what is ready to enter. There is movement beneath the surface &#8212; not chaotic, but purposeful. You may feel as if something has lifted, even if you cannot yet see what is arriving to replace it.</p><p>The energy is supportive of emotional renewal and inner openness. Rather than forcing outcomes, allow space for the new to fill what has been released. Trust that clearing always precedes meaningful expansion.</p><h3><strong>Description of Energy</strong></h3><p>Many will notice subtle emotional shifts: a softening of the chest, a calmer mind, or a sense that it is time to welcome something different. This is heart-centered growth rather than mental pressure.</p><p>Keep your heart chakra open. When the heart remains open, clarity follows naturally, and new pathways become visible without strain. Avoid revisiting what has already been released. This week is not about returning to the past, but allowing new energy to find its place.</p><h3><strong>Grounding and Clarity Suggestions</strong></h3><p>Use methods that keep your heart and mind aligned.</p><p>Gentle breathwork will help maintain a steady emotional flow and prevent internal pressure from building again.<br>Quiet walking, time near nature, or simply stepping outside for fresh air will stabilize your energy and allow integration.</p><p>When working alone, sing or hum softly. Sound opens the heart center and lifts lingering heaviness. Even a few minutes will shift the emotional field and restore balance.</p><h2><strong>Element Focus</strong></h2><p><strong>Fire - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius</strong><br>Renewed motivation begins returning. Move forward with warmth rather than urgency.</p><p><strong>Air - Aquarius, Gemini, Libra</strong><br>Mental clarity follows emotional release. Trust the ideas that come naturally now.</p><p><strong>Water - Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio</strong><br>Deep emotional clearing continues. Allow yourself to feel lighter without questioning why.</p><p><strong>Earth - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn</strong><br>Stability returns through small, consistent actions. Keep your environment calm and supportive.</p><p></p><h4><strong>&#8220;Feed the mind. Heal the body. Grow the soul&#8221; by LA Gonzales</strong></h4><p></p><h2><strong>Tarot Focus of the Week: Three of Hearts</strong></h2><p>Celebrate the quiet victories.<br>Acknowledge what has been released and what is now opening.<br>Joy does not need a grand event this week &#8212; it grows through small moments of appreciation, music, and gentle self-recognition.</p><p>Allow yourself to feel the lightness returning.</p><p></p><h3><strong>This Week on Substack</strong><br></h3><ul><li><p>Monday: Element Energy &amp; Weekly Focus</p></li><li><p>Monday: &#8220;<strong>Walking the Vatican as a Spiritually Aware Woman&#8221;<br>                   </strong>Signature Piece for Founding Members - Exclusive</p></li><li><p>Wednesday: Rising Oracle Message</p></li><li><p>Thursday: Soulful Inner Growth (paid)</p></li></ul><div><hr></div><p></p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Ascending Souls Journey is a reader-supported publication.

Message</h2><p>The card holds weight and truth, and it speaks directly to one of the most dangerous crossroads on the Ascending Souls Journey: the moment we realize the snake was never just outside us, but within us, often <em>woven into our agreements</em>, our memories, and our trust.</p><p>Let&#8217;s break this message down layer by layer so we can shape it with precision.</p><h2><strong>Core Meaning Of The Message:</strong></h2><h3><em><strong>Toxic Snake</strong></em></h3><p><em><strong>Manipulation, Lies, Masking, Domination</strong></em></p><p>This card is not about fear, but rather <em>sight</em>. It calls out what the soul already knows, but the mind tries to excuse. Without a flinch, you can see them. The venomous snake is rarely obvious. It hides behind charm, appearances, shared stories, and entering the clouds in the mind, using lines such as:  &#8220;I&#8217;m only trying to help.&#8221; </p><p>It waits. It studies. Once they see it in your eyes, they&#8217;ll strike. The main objective is not always to destroy, but to control. The puppet master trains the puppets to follow them.</p><p>The keywords aren&#8217;t just traits. They are <strong>tools</strong> of the unhealthy:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Manipulation</strong> - It is not always overt. It can be subtle: a guilt trip, a redirect, a &#8220;harmless&#8221; half-truth. It&#8217;s designed to make you question yourself, so you look to <em>them</em> for clarity.<br><br></p></li><li><p><strong>Lies</strong> - These can be spoken or silent. It&#8217;s what they omit, what they twist, and how they change the facts to keep power in their corner, and enablers support it.<br><br></p></li><li><p><strong>Masking</strong> - The biggest trick of all. The snake rarely shows its true face. It mimics your language, your values, your wounds, your life experiences, just long enough to get in.<br><br></p></li><li><p><strong>Domination</strong> &#8211; This is where it all leads, not always through force, but through erosion. Over time, your confidence, choices, and freedom begin to shrink.<br></p><p></p></li></ul><h4>                          Order your Soul Guided Session with Lori Ann</h4><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Book Your 2026 Session&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney"><span>Book Your 2026 Session</span></a></p><p>                     </p><h2><em><strong>Seeing the Snake and Staying Yourself</strong></em></h2><p>On the Ascending Souls Journey, you&#8217;ll eventually see them. The ones the Rising Oracle is pointing out. Whether they are hiding under a rock, sitting at your dinner table, or wearing a mask, those who smile with warning the Oracle knows you are capable of seeing them.</p><p>The ones who wait for you to rise just enough&#8230; and then whisper doubt in your ear. These are not just people; they are patterns, roles, energies passed down. They&#8217;ll show up as helpers, friends, even lovers. Some wear family names. Some you&#8217;ve never met but feel like you&#8217;ve known forever.</p><p>After you&#8217;ve discovered your own inner shadows, healed them, these carnivorous slither in and coil when you show signs of empowerment, when you can identify them without getting taken down, when you learn to bring out the healthy inner darkness for protection.</p><p>Getting back on your feet and walking the path that feels right does not mean you will never see or have experiences along the way.  I guarantee you will. As we all can see, they are growing in the weeds of life. Trying with every lunge to make certain that anyone they want will be submissive to their cause. (their own personal cause)</p><ul><li><p>You do not need to fight them.</p></li><li><p>You do not need to join them.</p></li><li><p>You only need to see clearly.</p></li></ul><p>And once you see clearly, you reclaim your path. You no longer respond to their bait. You stop making yourself smaller to avoid conflict. You don&#8217;t try to teach them, fix them, or prove your heart. You walk around them.</p><h3>Have you reached your path?</h3><p>Can you see this type of character in the stores, driving, and at family gatherings?</p><p>What you are about to do next will put you out of their sight and grow you faster than imaginable. And they will hate that.</p><p>But you will love it.</p><p><em><strong>Deeper Soul Reflection with questions, reflection, and affirmations regarding those who hide in the shadows, even you, in our upgraded plan when you&#8217;re ready.</strong></em></p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Ascending Souls Journey is a reader-supported publication.

This piece explores the difference between decisions made from the mind or the soul, and how this plays out in life choices.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>The idea of stepping into a new life, such as moving, traveling, or starting again, often feels exciting. Sometimes it&#8217;s a dream you&#8217;ve carried for years. Other times, it comes in fast, like a sudden push to begin again. But not every push comes from the soul. Some come from thought. And not every thought leads us where we want to go.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>There is a distinct difference in internal connections. The energy pulls us with force, pushing a &#8220;trigger&#8221; which is part of the answer. Part of the solution.</p><p>When it comes from thoughts, it makes sense. Your planning will be biased.</p><p>Your mind will become judgmental based on a closed mindset.</p><p>&#8203;</p><h3>You may be wondering, how can we have a closed mindset when we are spiritually growing?</h3><p>The personal journey leads us down a path of many, many layers of the soul&#8217;s life and our human experiences. It takes time. A new kind of patience that requires putting ourselves first without the old messages rumbling in the background.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>For example, if a dream was to travel the world and someone close to you said you don&#8217;t deserve to go, or you can&#8217;t afford to go, it sticks in the subconscious mind. Hides in there. Waiting until you reach that stage of layering.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>Whether it is obvious or subtle, a trigger is set off by something related to the areas, beliefs, or suppressed emotions. Out of sight, out of mind, does not mean it&#8217;s completely gone. If your dream of traveling was stamped out by people you trusted, the underlying comments return in your memories. Once the memory adapts, the thoughts and feelings return. Even if we have healed them, they are still stored internally.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>Here is a crucial point in understanding why they continue, and it is never about punishment or any form of sabotage. The universe is always offering options. When we have repeating memories, they can consume us - our thoughts, if we aren&#8217;t aware of what is happening. They will scramble our final decisions, particularly if you&#8217;ve found yourself going back and forth. Everything is returned so that you can choose.</p><p>What the past offered, including beliefs, and what the unseen, yet felt-current route brings.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>&#8220;Thoughts guide with bias while soul-led decisions guide within the body, in the spirit.&#8221;</p><p>It makes sense to go to a foreign area and choose based on what you think works. Those thoughts will begin to emerge as you make the plan. Research and find the correct Location, Organization, or whatever you are engulfed in to get it.</p><p>If the nagging is about affordability, you may be pulled toward something that seems right to you, but it may not connect with your soul.</p><p>&#8203;</p><div><hr></div><h2><em><strong>Book your 2026 Psychic Reading with Lori Ann</strong></em></h2><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Order Yours Here&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://calendly.com/ascendingsoulsjourney"><span>Order Yours Here</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p>&#8203;</p><h3><em><strong>Have you felt the pull?</strong></em></h3><p>When our inspiration comes, when ambitions rise from the soul, it is not the same internal feeling as when we follow our thoughts.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>Our thoughts of waking up on the coastal shores of a new destination can lead us to specific places or things because it makes sense.</p><p><br>Each Layer of our souls&#8217; journey takes us farther to revealing everything about the unique imprint you, your soul, carries in each experience. Each person. Our own part in them.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>If there are 12 layers to move through to get to the ultimate version of you - your soul&#8217;s destined plan, it flows with precision.</p><p>Layer one on the bottom will reveal something to raise to layer two.</p><p>Layer two carries (2) discoveries, truths, about you, and brings in the third, following the same process.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>My point is, every layer carries something that changes your way of thinking. With each one comes a sensational understanding of inner connections, leading to a new perception.</p><div><hr></div><h4><em><strong>FOUNDING MEMBERS - </strong></em></h4><p><em><strong>A Series about Religion, Spirituality, and Culture</strong></em></p><p><em><strong>Begins: February 23rd, 2026.</strong></em></p><p><em><strong>Join our members in discussions about:</strong></em></p><ul><li><p><em><strong>European Landmarks</strong></em></p></li><li><p><em><strong>Soulful view of History and Culture</strong></em></p></li><li><p><em><strong>Rome, Vatican, and more</strong></em></p></li></ul><div><hr></div><p>Anyone who was told they couldn&#8217;t do (fill in the blank) is now in a position to not only discard those words (thoughts) deeply burrowed in our thoughts, actions, and reactions.</p><p></p><h4>Now, they believe, no, <em>they know </em>they can.</h4><p>&#8203;</p><p>The answer doesn&#8217;t always come as a thought. It&#8217;s not a feeling either. It&#8217;s a signal. An energetic point inside the body. A subtle ping, a shift, a knowing. That&#8217;s how the soul speaks. No drama, no fear. Just a direction with options.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>The soul doesn&#8217;t mess with anything it isn&#8217;t meant to be involved in, but that doesn&#8217;t mean we stop. We also know the soul is the key to everything about us; it is the all-knowing part of us, as a being. It is we who choose to return to unsavory, unhealthy parts of our lives, from all lifetimes, not just the current one.</p><p>&#8203;</p><p>Making the right decision about how to move life forward is the choice.

All zodiac signs will feel it.</h2><p>The month of February will bring new energy, vitality, and creative flow for anyone working to break away from the systems and overcome the resistance that has been blocking the anticipated forward direction.</p><p>As we move into the month, the new year brings a sense of new vibes, felt internally. When the inside of the body is jumbling, just breathe. Calm down those vibes and grab the steering reins as you glide into new opportunities. They will be so excited, you&#8217;ll think the cosmos handed you a special platter of life events to nauch on while making progress.</p><div><hr></div><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">To receive new posts, guidance, and support for my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.</p></div><form class="subscription-widget-subscribe"><input type="email" class="email-input" name="email" placeholder="Type your email&#8230;" tabindex="-1"><input type="submit" class="button primary" value="Subscribe"><div class="fake-input-wrapper"><div class="fake-input"></div><div class="fake-button"></div></div></form></div></div><p></p><p>Each zodiac sign has a central message for the month. Whether to avoid something or call it in, the message holds the key to moving forward intuitively and relevantly. Everyone has all the zodiac signs in their chart. We suggest reading your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs for overall clarity.</p><div><hr></div><h2>Zodiac Signs Key Messages:</h2><h3><em><strong>Aries</strong></em></h3><p>The ram&#8217;s inner fire is lit, and it&#8217;s time to make some final touch-ups for perfection. Everything you have been focused on over the last several months is about to escalate, particularly in finances and stability. Romance peeks its red heart in the mix. Feel the rhythm.</p><div><hr></div><p>Private sessions are open and on Sale through 2/4/2026. What&#8217;s in store for you?</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Book Your Session&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com"><span>Book Your Session</span></a></p><div><hr></div><p></p><h3><em><strong>Taurus</strong></em></h3><p>Bulls are rising to the top of the mountain while watching others below. It is not an ego thing, it&#8217;s a newfound clarity where your life - your future is showing in full view. The trick is to balance the compulsive urge to work or play. This month is about balance and centering for the gold.</p><h3><em><strong>Gemini</strong></em></h3><p>Help is on the way! A special moment in our twins&#8217; lives is coming that will make both sides smile. Someone will be in the right place at the right moment for the victory. The key is to be open to understanding which piece is for you. Love is exciting as romance returns.</p><h3><em><strong>Cancer</strong></em></h3><p>If love doesn&#8217;t get you, the relationship will. Waiting stops for those seeking a romantic relationship, maybe going on a date arranged by a mutual friend. The bright lit hearts fly! Others are pouring their love into projects and family. A happy twist to start a powerful year.</p><h3><em><strong>Leo</strong></em></h3><p>There is no stopping Leo as the world opens up to new endeavors. Entertainment of music and art will mesmerize the mind and bring hidden inspiration to the surface. Leaders will lead, and storytellers will continue the story, but Leo changes the endgame. Fitness calls the lion, too!</p><h3><em><strong>Virgo</strong></em></h3><p>The month will bring much-needed apologies and closure for Virgo, leading to a new outcome. The release was all that was required to go beyond and find a sense of delight returning to life. Creating recipes and shelving the things that aren&#8217;t going forward. Celebrate and enjoy the Sun!</p><h3><em><strong>Libra</strong></em></h3><p>That old timeline doesn&#8217;t work, so the release balances the scales for Libra. Justice is in order, particularly in long-lasting legal battles. An unspoken knowing that it's time to begin a personal health and fitness routine calls for action. You have everything you need to complete the process and achieve the gains.</p><h3><em><strong>Scorpio</strong></em></h3><p>Happy days are here for our Scorpios. The time has finally arrived to take a bold step. Cosmic synchronicities are here to highlight the directions that lead to the lucky Irish caldron. Swirl it to gain the focus needed to see the other side. Love tugs the heart, but it may need to wait a while until the green light shines.</p><h3><em><strong>Sagittarius</strong></em></h3><p>Pull your bow back and fire when ready. The month will highlight creativity that can turn into a lucrative project. With focus, the stability returns to guide through the gossip. Stay in your life lane, and you will find the right road. Try a new outfit or recipe to stay in self-love.</p><h3><em><strong>Capricorn</strong></em></h3><p>It is definitely the goat&#8217;s year, but in steps. Whether you jump three at once or one a time, a lift is on the way. Energetically, physically, and heart wide open, Capricorn is declaring a change for the better. Good food and good company are key to feeling confident at this time.</p><h3><em><strong>Aquarius</strong></em></h3><p>No one is knocking Aquarius backwards as the people who&#8217;ve been gone return. Visit, enjoy, but overgiving is no longer part of the Aqua language. Taking control of the situation without forcing brings a very happy surprise. Appearance improves, and so do relationships.</p><h3><em><strong>Pisces</strong></em></h3><p>There is no love comparable to a Pisces love. This month, the fish will be swimming in a sea of positive emotions, creating new relationships and reviving some old romances. A situation that needs careful wording comes to a close, as the improved version of you shows up.</p><div><hr></div><p>I invite you to consider subscribing to support our work as we continue to bring subtle messages and guidance to all.</p><p>Much Love,</p><p>LA Gonzales</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.ascendingsoulsjourney.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Ascending Souls Journey is a reader-supported publication.

sunflower has always been more than a flower. In ancient times, it was seen as a symbol of truth, loyalty, and devotion, turning toward the sun again and again, no matter the weather. Some called it a map to the heavens. Others believe it carries prayers through its golden crown of petals. What&#8217;s always been true is this: the sunflower doesn&#8217;t chase the light. It <em>receives</em> it. Then it grows from it.</p><p>Your Rising Oracle is asking you to do the same. </p><p>To <em><strong>become the beacon for your own life</strong></em>.</p><p>It&#8217;s not the time to give up on your goal, your dream, but do it from the highest and most pure position of positivity, like the sunflower. There is no need to force anything, whether new or rebuilding. Renewal isn&#8217;t about the change; it&#8217;s where we go internally to find and implement changes. Such as clearing a room, decluttering, and removing the items that weigh you down.</p><p></p><h4><em>Not sure? Don&#8217;t worry, the universe is going to check.</em></h4><p></p><p>For example, if you grew up in an unhealthy family home environment that has brought many challenges, yet you removed them. You are healed! Or are you?</p><p>Until you pull out that old photo with a glimpse of the just-right angle, you are having your trigger/button pushed. If it doesn&#8217;t bring you joy or value, and life would be simple if you tuck it away and never look at it again, that may be what needs to be eliminated.</p><p>Yep - gone!
