The Well of the Future
Guidance from your future self
Under the crushing weight of late stage capitalism, I am re imagining the archetypal energies of the Saturn ruled signs of Capricorn and Aquarius.
I am currently visioning Capricorn as lineage ancestor, in our blood and bone and in the land. And Aquarius as our selves as future ancestors, gifting us with orracular insights that may seem out of this world.
Last month under the Capricorn full moon we asked the question of what we are building for the future from our own bone deep knowings. This month under Aquarius, our future selves visit us in our dreams as oracle with guidance on the actions we need to take, or the visions we need to mobilise in to action. Release the notion of what you already know in the world as it is. Aquarius insight is not of the now but of the future, and we know that many visionaries we can now look back on and say ah, they were a visionary… were once mocked and slandered in their own time. The Aquarius full moon asks you to have courage to envision beyond the scope of what is currently tangible.
I will now pull a card from Rosemarie Andersons Celtic Healing Oracle for each rising sign with the question, what message does my future self have for me?
Aries Rising
WELLS AND THERMAL SPRINGS
Your future self wants you to stop practising and preparing and DO IT. Do the thing. Dont let the big picture intimidate you. Your desire for the inner changes to begin expressing externally only require that you take it one step at a time. You must begin just before your ready, feel the support from the fiery thermal waters of the primordial goddess. Let go of your hesitation, it is time.
Taurus Rising
BOAR
Your future self wants you to take decisive action in the face of conflict. Remain steady and centred. Your integrity and groundedness will support you in an fears you may have around the action you need to take. Know that the situation calls for this swift and decisive action in order to avoid misunderstandings that could lead to further complications. Say it with your chest.
Gemini Rising
MOTHER GODDESS CARRYING CHILDREN AND FOOD
Your future self wants you to consider your wellbeing at this time in a very practical way. Are you nourishing your body at this time? Are you participating in activities that nourish your mind and soul? If your in the midst of a challenging time know that we appreciate that your reserves are exhausted and we encourage your fortification. Be present to offering of both physical and emotional comfort coming your way.
Cancer Rising
CHAMBERS IN THE EARTH
Your future self wants you to know that you need not be concerned at the speed things are going at. Mother earth is slow, steady, dependable and certain and you are being called to align your process with the rhythm and cycles of Her. Your mental chatter and unease at having to rest and renew, thats a product of capitalism and one you are going to dismantle. Feel the balance restoring in your life at this time and remember this next time you need to step back. Sometimes we have to step into the otherworld so we can renew our inspiration… and thats okay.
Leo Rising
MARE
Your future self wants you to recognise old patterns showing up in new guises. You have been seeking to heal old hurts that left your heart closed and wounded. When we close off our hearts (rightfuly so under circumstances outside our control) we cut off our power right at the source. When we begin to open our hearts as we heal, we also feel more and recognise more. So when the old memory appears in a new way, or new insights come to you from old tramas, dont be tempted to close youself off in the face of this challenge. With every small feat of keeping your heart open, your power is restored.
Virgo rising
LUGH
Your future self wants you to draw on the tools you have and step into your mastery. You are being invited into situations that ask you to call upon your vast array of skills and mobilise them into action. You are not being called upon alone, you know who your wise council is. No warrior journeys alone.
Libra Rising
OAK
Your future self wants you to remember who you are. If you have separated yourself from the deeper knowings of who you are and where you came from, or from yourself and particular memories, you are being invited into the journey of retrieval and reconnection. The venerable oaks inspire respect for their continuity of life within the ever present changing times. Every memory has its place in time, and every mystics path at one time or another, becomes a path of deep remembering.
Scorpio Rising
THE UNDER TREE
Your future self wants you to take root in the Otherworld to stabilize and activate otherworldly sources of insight and creativity still unknown to you. The taking of root in the otherworld is an invitation to step into the natural world in a journey of awe and wonderment at the tangeable magic and inspiration available when completley present and open. To access the otherworld, take seat the the base of a well known tree and breathe yourself into a light trance. Feel the shift in the air around you. Be sure to ask you guides to join you in this endeavor.
Sagittarius Rising
THE CHANGELING
Your future self wants you to trust your orracular insights. You may be recognising an uptick in your dreams, art or visionary knowledge or that you have a natural inclination towards herbalism, healing or psychic awareness. There was a time where these “gifts" would have been recognised early in life and guided into maturity by an elder. It may be time to reach out to a mentor to help you develop your liminal nature.
Capricorn Rising
HEARTH AND FAMILY
Your future self invites you to soften into the side of your nature that wants to connect on a more intimate level with those around you and in your community. Imagine sitting round a cosey fire with these people and feel the warmth of the flames and the gentle light soften and relax your nervous system. See folks of all ages sharing stories and feel the support of your ancestors as you open more and more to the joy and levity of relaxed soical interactions.
Aquarius Rising
THE POOKA
Your future self wants you to expect the unexpected. Pookas are natural shapeshifters and can show up in many guises, as unforseen events, unique people and abrupt changes in direction. The Pooka is the trickster of the Celtic world, and while the presence and unforseen actions of feeling like you’ve been picked up in one place and dropped in another can be disorienting, know that without the intervention of the pooka, you may never have had the clarity of hindsight needed from your new vantage point.
Pisces Rising
SUN GOD
Your future self wants you to bask in the radiant power of the sun. If you feel an intensity of power growing from within thats fit to burst you are being invited to show up and sparkle your inner light into the world. The Suns consistent radiance invokes a sense of confidence in the midst of changing times, wether this assists you personally, or others, know that this isn’t meant to be kept hidden.
