Sunday 1/15/2017 5 of Cups
Numerology:8
Moon in Virgo
The 5 of Cups is a card of loss. However, don’t get stuck dwelling on what was. Realize that there are still many blessings in your life to be grateful for. Your feelings may be hurt, but if you can flip your perspective, you’ll realize things aren’t as bad as they seem. Moon opposition Neptune at 2:08 PM PST may leave you feeling guilty for things that aren’t your fault. Don’t let these negative thoughts hurt your self esteem.

If you feel despondent because you’re not getting the attention you desire, make sure to take time to do something nice to pamper yourself, like taking a bubble bath or snuggling up in bed with a good book. But avoid consumption because it could lead to excess. The Moon is in the picky sign of Virgo today so try not to get hung up in details and look at the whole picture. The number of the day is 8, reminding us that karma is a bitch.
