My name is The Fox and I am back for another set of predictions for the week of May 30, 2024. Yes, it is 21 years since that fateful day that marked the beginning of my first week as a tarot blogger. (I am not sure how to pronounce that word, but it is pronounced the same as “tiger” and is a reference to the Tarot of Marseilles, which I also love. I am also a big fan of Tarot and I am going to try and explain my crazy predictions in a letter to the editor format.)
The passing of a loved one, the loss of a job, or any other major life event can be devastating—but all of that is nothing compared to the loss of your purpose. Everyone has one—that thing you wake up in the morning and can’t wait to do. Unfortunately, as life gets busier, that outlet gets further and further away.
It’s the Spring of 2024 and the long-awaited celestial conjunction of Jupiter, Saturn, and Mercury is at hand. This is a time of great transformation in our lives, for it heralds a turning point in our lives, and the birth of the Aquarian Age, where we will walk a new path. This is a time that is ripe for creativity and innovation, and we can see this in the way we interact with the world around us, as we are able to see the world in a new way.
Vanessa Barragao This week’s artist is Vanessa Barragao @vanessabarragao_work. Barragao takes textile techniques such as crocheting, felting, embroidery and weaving to a new level, not only in terms of size but also concepts. She works with recycled wool, from the collection of waste, leftovers and supplies from Portuguese factories.
Barragao started out in the fashion industry, but he has seen the environmental impact of everything from textile production processes to the false necessity of consumption. Barragao’s work is not anti-textile. It is a celebration of fiber that appreciates and celebrates nature. She creates a space in which the viewer becomes aware of the causal connections between our consumption and the natural environment, while the beauty of both is illuminated with complex reflection.
Barragao’s art reflects what scientists are learning about microplastics from substances in the ocean. There is still too little research in this area. So far, scientists have discovered that textile waste such as clothing, cigarette filters and personal care products are polluting the waters around us and have been found at all levels of marine life.
They found that a cotton T-shirt disappears in 2 to 5 months, a wool sock in 1 to 5 years, synthetic fibres in a few decades (30 to 40 years for polyamide fabrics) to hundreds of years (450 years for disposable diapers). It has been proven that natural textile fibers, even if swallowed, are broken down in the body, unlike synthetic fabrics.
However, it is also pointed out that although they are biodegradable, dyes and chemicals can get into the body that takes them. It is interesting to note that the mixture of fabrics, the length of the fibres and the way they are woven – natural or synthetic – influence this deposition process. Another study showed that after the first ten washes, the amount of molting decreased significantly. This information is essential for the textile industry to innovate.
But what can we do? Well, we can buy well-made clothes and clothes that are made of natural fibers instead of synthetic materials. Or pay attention to our buying habits, especially when they are determined by fashion statements. This also applies to household items such as bedding and towels. Or buy second-hand clothes. Innovative environmentalism is about finding ways to enjoy the world, but in a responsible way. Planetary highlights: Mercury is in Gemini until the 23rd. June deviation.
So take the time and space to disconnect and do the 3Vs: Review, reflect and revise. Venus moves on the 1st. July enters the sign of Cancer – a great time to connect with loved ones and pamper yourself. In addition, Jupiter (expansion) is in the sky until the 28th. July in Pisces, which tells you what your 2024 will look like and where your growth will come from.
P.S. The characters with * are a big week for you. Gemini is the perfect time to get an astrological tarot reading for the coming year. And Sagittarius is halfway through your birth year, so if you need a planetary reading to check it out, now is the time. May the light be upon you, around you and within you, Nina
