This week practice self-compassion. Treat yourself as you wish others would treat you.

You’re on a sacred journey and the purpose of your life is to discover what gives you the most purpose. Rest well and have some fun!

The February Full Moon is called the “Full Snow Moon” because snow often falls in February (apologies to those who are ready for spring). Another name for this Full Moon is the “Hunger Moon”. How much hunger do you experience? Madame G wishes you well on your journey. Do not be afraid to reach out and seek help, others will reach back. You are worthy.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Don’t laugh at your failures. Learn from them. It can be painful to know that you’ve done all that you can, and perhaps not done as well as you’d hoped. But, that doesn’t mean you’re not worth the effort. You may need to fix errors or fix the things that are broken. You can impart great wisdom...
