Do we have good foundations? Are we strong and healthy? Do we know where we’re headed and have the resources building up to make it all happen? You reap what you sow. Life happens by design.
This New Moon invites you to start investments, practices, and good habits now that will yield positive payback down the line.

Tarot card for Sagittarius for the New Moon in Taurus: Knight of Cups
