Weekend 15/52 - This is how we’re operating from now on


The Emperor is about structures, defining systems from where we ought to operate from
The Page of Wands is the one who’s ready to act towards what excites him, to follow his callings

Things are coming full circle.

The new you is on.

Continuing the Aries-Libra themes we talked about on monday, today we have a full moon in Libra, the sun is in Aries, with Venus (Libra’s regent planet) ending its retrograde also today.

What does that mean?

Your values and self worth (Libra themes) are your guides now. When they’re clear and solid, they’re what allow you to make ‘hard’ decisions fast and easy.

You know right away what’s for you and what’s not for you.

I remember a friend of mine asking me once “how are you so decisive in your choices?”.

I answered “I know who I am, I know my values, I know what I want, so it’s really easy to know right away what’s not for me”.

This is the system we’re operating now (Emperor). The source of decision making is internal. Not ego, but our essence, our truth. And we’re being called to start testing this new operational system right away (Page of Wands).

Ok, but how do we get clarity around our self worth and values?

Funny you should ask.

I replied to Tracy’s thread this week where she was talking about having a hard time having her values defined.

So I gave her a tip on how to identify them:

So if you haven’t gotten your core principles well established, take a look at your past experiences, and you shall find some answers.

I recommend defining 6 core values max, to keep it handy.

We’ll need it more often than not, as we’re being called to lead with them.

This is how we’re operating from now on - said the archetype duo.

Enjoy the ride flight,

A. Matsui
