September Creative Energy Forecast
Virgo's Influence Offers Mastery & Harvest
Hello, cozy entrepreneurs, creators, coaches, authors, and dreamers!
For years, I’ve pulled a tarot card on the first day of every month as a guide to the month’s creative collective energy. I thought you might like to join me. 🥰
Every month, we’ll pull a card together to guide our creative endeavors and help us align with the energies of the universe. This month, we've pulled the magnificent 8 of Pentacles, a card brimming with encouragement for our cozy journeys.
What the 8 of Pentacles Means for the Creative Collective
The 8 of Pentacles is a powerful symbol of dedication, mastery and focused work. It's about honing your craft, putting in the consistent effort and finding joy in the process of creation. For cozy business owners and dreamers, this card speaks volumes:
For Cozy Entrepreneurs: This is your month to really lean into the practical side of your business. Think about refining your systems, improving your products or services, and dedicating consistent time to tasks that build a solid foundation.
For Cozy Creators and Coaches: The 8 of Pentacles encourages you to dive deep into your creative process. Focus on practicing your art, refining your coaching techniques or learning new skills. This is a gentle nudge to dedicate yourself to becoming even better at what you do.
For Cozy Authors: This month is perfect for consistent writing and editing. Focus on your daily word count, immerse yourself in your story, and trust that each small step builds towards your literary masterpiece.
For Dreamers Who Want to Be Cozy Creators or Start a Cozy Business: This is your sign to start building! Don't wait for perfection. Begin with small, consistent actions that move you towards your dream. Learn a new skill, create a simple plan or dedicate a specific time each day to journaling your vision. I can’t stress this enough but, EVERYONE starts with nothing.
It all comes from an idea that YOU must bring into physical reality. I just started this Substack 3 weeks ago and it was just a blank page. It was overwhelming and scary, but not even a month later I’ve got 10 posts, dozens of notes and almost 75 new friends to share the journey with.
How to Work with the Energy of the 8 of Pentacles This September
Commit to Daily Practice: Even small, consistent efforts add up. Dedicate a specific time each day to your creative work or business tasks.
Focus on Skill Development: Is there a new skill that could enhance your offerings or creative process? This month is ideal for learning and mastery.
Celebrate Your Progress: The 8 of Pentacles is about the journey, not the destination. Look at how she’s admiring the coins from her seat at the desk. She’s acknowledging and celebrating every step forward, no matter how small.
Find Joy in the Mundane: There's beauty in the repetitive tasks that build a business or create art. Find ways to infuse joy and mindfulness into these everyday actions. I keep things fun with tarot cards, music and my favorite coffee when I have to do the tasks I find boring (editing, SEO, organizing, filing… YUCK).
Minimize Distractions: The focused energy of this card encourages minimizing anything that pulls you away from your creative flow. Boundaries keep coming up for me, are they for you? Do you treat your work with the same respect you showed your corporate job?
