Thanksgiving week is upon us, and while the aroma of pumpkin pie and the promise of quality time with loved ones fill the air, let’s be real – family gatherings can be a mixed bag. But fear not, dear readers, for The Empress is here to guide you through the potential chaos with grace and abundance. This week, let’s ditch the drama and focus on cultivating gratitude, deepening our connections, and finding joy in the simple pleasures.
- Nurture Your Connections: Reach out to loved ones, express your appreciation, and create a sense of warmth and belonging.
- Find Beauty in the Everyday: Amidst the holiday rush, take time to appreciate the small things and cultivate a sense of gratitude for all that you have.
Here’s how the week unfolds with The Empress as our guide:
Monday-Wednesday:
- Embrace Abundance: The Empress encourages you to recognize the abundance that surrounds you. This isn’t just about material wealth; it’s about appreciating the love, support, and beauty in your life. Start each day by listing three things you’re grateful for, and watch your perspective shift from scarcity to abundance.
Thursday-Friday:
- Gather & Give Thanks: With the New Moon in Sagittarius illuminating your sector of home and family, Thanksgiving takes center stage. Embrace the spirit of gratitude and find ways to connect with loved ones on a deeper level. Share stories, express appreciation, and create new traditions that foster a sense of belonging.
- Shop Mindfully (or Opt Out!): Black Friday can be a frenzy of consumerism, but The Empress reminds you that true value lies in experiences and connections, not material possessions. If you do choose to shop, do so with intention and prioritize quality over quantity. Or better yet, skip the crowds and spend the day connecting with nature or loved ones.
Weekend:
- Spread the Love: The Empress embodies nurturing energy, and with Venus squaring Chiron on Saturday, it’s a perfect time to heal through kindness. Extend that nurturing spirit to those around you – offer a helping hand, lend a listening ear, or simply share a warm embrace. This transit may stir up old wounds, but by spreading love and kindness, you create a ripple effect of positivity that extends far beyond your immediate circle.
