 I’ve been working as a professional psychic since 1996, but only recently have been practicing in the greatest city in the world, since receiving exposure by Cat Greenleaf of WNBC and Nicole Tourtelot of Time Out New York. Since January, I’ve been fortunate enough to do psychic readings, and meet great people I would have otherwise never had the chance to meet. I encourage you all to email  questions, thoughts, ideas, etc., so that you may add to this newsletter, helping  myself and others walk a happier, more spiritual path with practical feet.

A.
UNIVERSAL SCOOP!

Every day, the universe offers us an opportunity to make our dreams come true; but every two weeks marks a particular way in which our dreams may be made manifest: I am talking about the New and Full Moon Cycles.

 On the New Moon, the Sun and the Moon are in exactly the same sign—for instance, on July 2-3, both the Sun and Moon will be in Cancer. During this time, it’s good to invoke NEW things for the next two weeks. After those two weeks, we have the Full Moon Cycle, in which the Sun and Moon are in opposite signs (i.e. Sun in Cancer, Moon in Capricorn on July 16), and we will best be served by BANISHING those things we no longer need. You can start up to three days before each cycle, i.e. you could have started invoking new things on June 30, and you could start banishing things on July 13.

In short:

~On the New Moon, July 2, 2008, focus on those new things you want in your life for two weeks. An example Wish List for the New Moon might include the following phrasing:

I wish for a new home, and I will get one by saving money, liquidating certain assets, doing market research and recruiting the help of a referred realtor, etc.

I wish for a new job that will make me happy, and I will achieve this by revising my resume, booking interviews, possibly hiring a job hunter, keeping a positive attitude, etc.

~During the Full Moon Cycle, which starts on July 16 for two weeks, you’ll concentrate on ridding yourself of those things you no longer need. A Banishing List might resemble the following pattern:

I banish my negative thinking regarding my career, by actively pursuing work in another sector and detaching from the negativity in my present office environment.

I remove blocks to finding my dream home, by ridding of all the stuff that I don’t want to take with me, packing those things I want to keep, actively pursuing real estate options, etc.

You may want to use the moon cycles all year long, as to make your actions in sync with the universe; think of it like planting a seed at the right time. Other good times this year to Invoke during the New Moon cycle, and Banish on the Full Moon are listed below.

SUMMER TAROTSCOPES

            ARIES (March 21 -April 19)
Your ruler, Mars, will be charging up the area of your chart that rules assignments from July 1 until August 19, creating for you a newfound stability. Keep your eyes on the prize July 26, when Mars sends a brilliant ‘shout out’ to financially beneficial Jupiter. The summer will prompt you to end a major cycle in your life, starting you out on a brand new course come September.

Ace of Pentacles                     The Universe               The Chariot

TAURUS (April 20 -May 20)
Opening up to your emotional/intuitive side is a step in the right direction. You will get a chance for emotional stability near July 10, when fiery Mars tangos with stern Saturn—even if your affections seem to be met with lackluster love. Come Labor Day, when your intellect takes center stage, make sure you incorporate wisdom of the heart for decision-making and finalizations. Avoid gossip by telling only tales your heart would tell.

Queen of Cups                        Four of Cups               Queen of Swords

        GEMINI (May 21 -June 20)
A transition in late spring/early summer may have you feeling unsettled; not to worry, though, as your second house, which rules income, will be alit with hope this New Moon. Especially nice, too, will be a day near July 14, when the Sun and Uranus create a glorious angle—this may be the time to seek out more capital.

Express yourself at all costs throughout August, as come September, you could have some artistic masterpiece on your hands, which will help you stay clear of addictive tendencies.

Through the summer, make an effort to not play with people; aim to be forthright and firm rather than deceptive and duplicitous: this may not be easy, as you have yet to make up your mind. Perhaps communicate how you’re feeling, even if you’re not clear on exactly how you feel.

Six of Swords             Two of Swords           The Moon

         CANCER (June 21 -July 22)
Happy Birthday, Cancer! And a happy birthday it is. Something new has been born and is galvanizing your senses; believe in what you feel to make your wishes come true, perhaps even by the full moon on July 18, which falls in your relationship sector.

You’re expressing yourself wholeheartedly throughout July, and that’s great. Come August, you’re recuperating from all the sensory stimuli earlier in the summer. This is fine, because love may come around when you’re not ‘at home’ playing ‘mother’. Still, rely on your intuition to govern your actions or lack thereof, as it may be best for you to be subtly in the background. In August, the seeds you’ve been watering will most likely sprout when you’re out of the garden…love is here to stay come September.

The Empress                The High Priestess                  Two of Cups
        LEO (July 23-August 22)
Happy Birthday, Leo—and to start celebrating as early as possible, take care of all those pesky duties and responsibilities you will just want out of the way (dental appointments, your car’s oil change, new dishwasher, etc.) Any less than glorious news in July may be actually the best thing that could have happened; you may soon be in an advantageous position to use what you’ve learned to embark on a new course of health, prosperity, trust and long-term security in August. Buy a scratch ticket, readjust your investment portfolio, or ask for a raise.

Though it’s easy to squash the competition come September, remember to polish up your victory with a touch of class—sooooo, before you lacerate, think about how much you had learned earlier this summer, and look onward with eyes of a leader, as some people may not be as “in-the-know” as you.

Princess of Swords                 Ace of Pentacles                     Five of Swords

        VIRGO (August 23-September 22)
Leadership is a major theme for you in July, as action and activity-oriented Mars had entered your sign on the first of July. Mars will stay in Virgo up until August 19, so you’ll have lots of extra energy and oomph to initiate a new venture or forge ahead in a relationship. The result: a new wave of wealth and stability to bring you the utmost in security. Action is key; so is confidence: Don’t ask questions to which only you should know the answers; trust yourself and your astute observations to adds zeroes to your bank balance and longevity to your career.

Hierophant                  Princess of Swords                 Knight of Pentacles

        LIBRA (September 23-October 22)
How well you wear a velvet glove over an iron hand, Libra. The enjoyment of solitude and the relishing of all its perks will pave the way for a brilliant catch in July. By the full moon on the 18th, home improvements seem to be well underway; and July 22 may be a red letter day, as Mercury and Uranus align brilliantly, sending a jolt to your Mercurial-ruled House of Fame and Honors. Your stellar work, Libra, will create an excellent launching pad for September’s fresh start; it is then, though, you’ll have to deal with others’ conflicting agendas in getting down to brass tacks—let’s hope the zodiac’s diplomat still has what it takes to restore harmony with that untouchable, irresistible charm.

Nine of Disks             Four of Wands                        Five of Wands
 

        SCORPIO (October 23-November 21)

Like Transformers, you Scorpios are more than meets the eye. And there’s nothing like travel to jolt your senses and get you feeling like the new ‘you’ you’ll be reborn into. Acknowledging your desire and letting go of that which no longer serves you—even if it’s your desire—is your ace in the hole. Extra special love days will be July 14 and July 22; such highlights will promote a catharsis conducive to your career come September.

Prince of Cups                        The Lovers                  Nine of Disks

 
        SAGITTARIUS (November 22-December 21)

The sign of “bigger, better, more!” has been more prudent as of late, and expression of the adage, “the more the merrier!” is in order. The weekend of July 26-27 may be the best time to splurge. This may be the highlight of the summer, as sexy Mars will come into contact with your ruling planet, happy-go-lucky Jupiter. This will be a particularly perfect time to celebrate, as right beforehand, on July 25, some great financial news should come your way. Start saving soon after, though, for in September you may have to ‘spend some to get some’ in a move affecting home, work or family.

Eight of Disks                         Ten of Wands             The Hermit

        CAPRICORN (December 22-January 19)

Following the established order usually gives you a sense of stability, Capricorn. But August’s uphill battle with what’s expected of you is going to take its toll. Could it be you’re still looking at life through June’s foggy lens? Now is not the time to doubt; dream instead: Jupiter, the planet of happiness, luck, and financial abundance, now in Capricorn, will sensationally aspect the New Moon July 2, paving the way for you to do things in a big impressive way. Break free from the stodgy shackles of tradition, and make the project of a lifetime materialize in your unique way come September.

Ten of Disks                Nine of Wands            Four of Wands

         AQUARIUS (January 20-February 18)

Lots of pleasure to be had in July, particularly regarding your career, as some projects seeded in the past will sprout this month. Venus in your opposite sign of Leo from July 12 to August 6 will give you the patience and charisma needed to teach as you learn and learn as you teach. In September, you may be more subtle, remaining in the background as to process the experience of August.

Six of Cups                 Hierophant                  High Priestess

 

        PISCES (February 19-March 20)

When swimmers race, they’re smart to ‘negative split’, saving adequate energy for the home stretch. Let this idea stay in your mind, and you won’t burst a gasket July 10. You’ll still need to get plenty of rest…
A tough day for everyone, July 10 may prove particularly problematic for Pisces, as Mars and Saturn will oppose your sun. Fret not, dear Pisces, as powerful Pluto will have your back that day, orbiting your House of Fame and Honors and thereby prepping you to handle conflict with aplomb. Balance yourself throughout August (bring some work with you to the beach, perhaps) while making sure you do visit the water to get back to work on-point and unflappable. 

Three of Disks                         The Lovers                  Five of Wands

ALERT: ALTERNATIVE LOCATION

For your next session with Joshua, prepare to come to the new West 89th Street location. Still on the Upper West Side, the 89th Street locale is most accessible by the 1 train to 86th Street, the 1, 2 or 3 to 94th Street,  or the B/C to 86th and Central Park West.

D.
PRODUCT FEATURE: RELOCATION CHARTS

Most of you clients have had your natal charts done, using the time and place of your births. But what about how your chart correlates with the place you’re at now or the place at which you wish to be? With a possibly different Moon and/or Rising sign, you’re whole personality could potentially change, depending on where you are…

Even a move from Boston to NYC can make a difference (i.e. I’m a double-Aquarius by birth, but a Capricorn rising here in NYC and Sagittarius rising in LA—in essence, I come across as more zany in Boston, more conservative in NYC, and more adventuresome in Los Angeles.)

Such a chart is ideal if you’re thinking about moving to a different vicinity. You’ll find who you’ll be there, and what personality aspects are likely to be more prominent. How does love look for you in England? How might your career pan out in California? These are the questions that a relocation chart can answer. Plus, if you weren’t born in your current locale, how is your personality different here? A relocation chart will give you a look at the you in your current, new or potential stomping grounds; ask for one for your next psychic reading with Joshua.

SERVICE SPOTLIGHT:
BACK TO SCHOOL TAROT CLASSES!

Having been fortunate enough to teach over 40 students tarot at The Original Tremont Tearoom, Boston’s oldest psychic salon, I have come to love teaching tarot and its connection to astrology and numerology just as much as I love reading for clients. 

Tarot is not just a tool for divining the future, but may also be used to create the future you wish to have. Whether you want to read cards for yourself or professionally, or you’re serious about tapping into your utmost potential and creating the best you and the best life imaginable, my tarot classes may be right for you. Send inquiries to Josh@psychicjoshua.com. Feel free to let me know what you’re interested in learning, and in what type of setting you’d best learn in, as private classes as well as class sessions are available.

 Here’s what some former students had to say:

"Joshua's Tarot classes are a wonderful combination of education, challenge, and fun, and he is a dynamic and compassionate teacher who helps his students learn in ways which are both creative and empowering.  The Tarot has become a central influence in my personal, professional, and spiritual life, and I highly recommend Joshua's classes to anyone who is seriously interested in learning about the Tarot and Tarot reading."  - Grace Sterling Stowell

 Josh's tarot classes allowed me to see in a different light the way we experience life. Fun, yet respectful, his approach kept me coming back for more! Thanks Josh, hope all is well, Jennifer B.
