On April 30th we experienced our first solar eclipse of 2022, and also a new moon! New moons are a symbol of new cycles, and a wonderful time to set intentions for your month.
Since it’s the beginning of a new month, too, I encourage you to seek guidance around your intentions for today’s reading.
Looking forward to seeing those of you that booked a 1:1! Here is the link if you’re interested:

The Sun, reversed
Whatever your intentions for this month, it’s time to let loose a little. In the name of trying to “do all the things” you’re holding yourself at a distance from experiencing joy, or at least more than you’re letting in.
Joy and wonder are relatively easy to tap into on a small scale: turning your face to the sun, watching the birds, or taking a stroll with a friend.
Be aware of pushing yourself through your day so intently that you forget to enjoy yourself once in a while.
Put on a song you love and boogie around your living room. Seriously. Do it.

Ten of Cups
Oh man, this is an excellent way to start your month!
The ten of cups gives us permission to really enjoy everything we’ve worked so hard for.
Remember, you’ll never get everything finished that you’re after in this life. The beautiful nature of being human is the continual drive to create and try new things. BUT today you’re being asked to slow your roll and just enjoy what you already have.
You might feel like you don’t have much. No matter your circumstance, you’ve been through a lot and put in a lifetime of energy to be right here, right now. Give yourself some grace, love, and appreciation.
And if you’re not delighted with what you see, now is the best time to set new intentions for what’s next.

Queen of Pentacles
You have made good decisions, and have the supporting energy of the Queen to make others.
The Queen is stable, abundant, and discerning. She is successful because she weighs decisions and takes care of her physical world well: her work, living space, body.
This is an excellent time to reflect on your own material world and where you feel you’d like to improve things. Then, it’s only a matter of setting some goals and taking small steps each day in alignment with those goals.
You have access to all you desire, so what’s the next step to help get you there?
