Week of October 19, 2026

The Waxing Crescent Moon means it’s time to move forward. The energy has been very mixed and it felt like things are still taking shape. There has been an urge to do something but the path ahead hasn’t necessarily been clear. That’s okay. What we’ve been enduring is a merely a step along the way towards our destination. We are still very much in the middle of the journey and it’s important that we keep the faith about what our next steps may be and where our path will lead us. We must keep focused on moving forwards and having the courage to see our dreams through even when we can’t see them. Imagine yourself tying to cross a roaring river in the fog – we must trust that the next stepping stone is there. It’s time for us to get to work and pursue our goal of a better world no matter what.

The Waxing Moon is natural progression of this energy and by working with it we can clear some of that fog this week. It is an incredibly positive card validating that we are on the right path although we may not be quite where we want to be yet. We must stay focused on our goals and keep that faith we are still moving in the right direction. Our world is full of potential and what we dream of can be. This card encourages and empowers us to make those plans and see them through. The momentum is building in our favor. Calling in determination and courage will be helpful right now.

All of this momentum is pointing us towards a new beginning, a spark of action that will light the flame of progress. The New Moon in Aries brings extra starting power with new moons representing new beginnings and Aries being the sign of action, fire, and the first sign of the zodiac. The time to act is approaching and this card is a very encouraging sign that we are on the right track. We may still have a ways to go, but bravery and determination will help us move forwards. We must also be aware of moving too fast or acting too brash – that fiery Aries energy could cause us to act before we think and that is not helpful at this time. Move with purpose and intention, the energy is supporting the new beginning we are working towards!

Overall for this week: We should be very encouraged by this positive momentum. We are hearing the call of our dreams louder and louder by the day, and our present moment is bringing us to a point where we will have no choice but to pursue our goal of creating a more loving world. If we work with the energy that is building with faith, love, and determination, it will help prepare us for when it’s time to action.
