I’m GOING LIVE!!! Monday, April 24th! Click Here (or the picture to jump in)
Did you see the 👉Aries video👈 in the last set of readings where I predicted that crypto would dip during the retrograde?
📉Keep in mind is that crypto always seems to dip during the retrogrades, and trust me when I say nobody can predict the market’s movements reliably these days.
📈I predict the crypto market will be hot in 2025 which will bring out even more fakers in 2026, ready to take your money. They’re everywhere! Be careful and learn for yourself instead of taking their promises at face value.
🌟Uranus in Taurus is very unpredictable and rewards us for slow and steady + research = success
🧐Doing your research, taking it slow and steady, and avoiding knee-jerk reactions are some of the most important things to remember when investing right now.
No random advice from your 3rd cousin’s uncle! Do not blindly follow the crowd.
💰No Get Rich Quick Schemes!💰
Remember, I’ve never been great at math so take my advice with a grain of salt🧂!
🌟APRIL 2023🌟
⚡️April 21st – May 14th – Mercury Retrograde
- Slow down your pace: Due to the potential for miscommunications and misunderstandings, it’s important to take your time with important decisions and communications. Rushing can lead to mistakes and missed opportunities.
- Practice mindfulness and meditation: This is a great time to turn inward and focus on your own thoughts and feelings. Regular mindfulness or meditation practices can help you stay centered and calm during periods of chaos or change.
- Set intentions for the retrograde: Use the retrograde period to reflect on your goals and desires. Setting intentions or engaging in creative visualization exercises can help you manifest what you want in life.
- Clean and declutter your space: The energy of a space can affect your mood and mindset. Take some time to clean, declutter, and rearrange your home or workspace for a fresh start.
- Focus on self-care: The retrograde period can be a time of heightened stress and anxiety, so it’s important to prioritize self-care practices that work for you. This might include exercise, spending time in nature, or scheduling a massage or other self-care treatment.

🌟MUST READ!🌟
If you’re looking for a book to help you break through creative blocks, procrastination, or self-doubt, I highly recommend “The War of Art” by Steven Pressfield.
In this book, he offers a no-nonsense approach to conquering what he calls “Resistance,” that voice inside us that tries to keep us from reaching our creative potential. He offers practical advice, inspiring anecdotes, and a kick-in-the-pants attitude that will motivate you to take action and overcome your own creative roadblocks.
You can get “War of Art” here on Amazon (We believe in transparency! Please note if you purchase from our link, we receive a small amount of money which helps support this newsletter)
🌟YELLOW PAD CHALLENGE🌟
Day 11 – Taking Action Towards Your Goals 💪
Welcome back to Day 11 of our 30-day scripting challenge! I hope you’re feeling motivated and inspired to create positive changes in your life.
Today, we’re going to discuss an essential element for achieving your goals: taking action. Scripting is a powerful tool to help us clarify our goals and visualize our desired outcomes. However, without taking consistent action towards our goals, we won’t see any significant progress.
📝 Your challenge for today: Identify three actionable steps you can take today to move closer to achieving your goals. Write them down and commit to taking those actions today. Visualize yourself completing those actions with ease, and feel the sense of accomplishment that comes with making progress towards your goals.
Remember, even small steps can have a significant impact over time. By taking consistent action towards our goals, we build momentum and create positive momentum in our lives.
Take at least 10 minutes to complete this exercise. Embrace the power of scripting to help you take the necessary steps towards creating the life you want.
I’ll see you in the next newsletter for Day 12, where we’ll reflect on our progress so far and celebrate our achievements🎉!
Keep up the great work!
Action is the foundational key to all success.
