Receiving Messages From Spirit About Your Business in 2026
In this post, I talk about the astrology for the week of September 8-14, 2025 and how it affects highly sensitive entrepreneurs. I also share an art spell for receiving messages from your spirit allies and ancestors about your business in 2026.
ASTROLOGY HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 8-14, 2025
This week, the astrology is great for receiving guidance from your spirit about your business in 2026.
If you are like me and you like to check in with your spirit allies and ancestors about the year ahead to help you plan your offerings and launches, this weekend will be a perfect time to pause, connect, and receive insight. You’ll be able to tune in to messages that might otherwise remain hidden.
In this blog post and in the art spell video tutorial below, I show you exactly what to do and the exact steps to follow to harness this energy to your best advantage this week.
How The Week Starts Off
At the beginning of the week, the energy is a little heavier than it will be later in the week. The moon is in its waning phases which invites introspection and release and both the Sun and Mercury are hanging out in Virgo close to the South Node.
Think of the South Node like a point in your chart that highlights where you’ve been, what you may need to let go and release and where you may feel drained or depleted. When the Sun is near the South Node, this depletion can show up in your sense of vitality so your physical energy might feel lower than usual. For those of us who already struggle with fatigue because of a highly sensitive nervous system I know you’re not going to enjoy hearing that but if you do end up feeling depleted earlier in the week at least you know it will pass. The Sun near the South Node can also deplete your motivation or your inspiration and tasks you normally tackle with ease may feel heavier.
Mercury near the South Node can make your mind feel depleted or like it’s running on overdrive with stress, anxiety, or over-thinking. On the other hand, it might be great from more contemplative, reflective kinds of things rather than fast decision making.
Think of Mercury and the South Node at the beginning of the week as an invitation to pause and tune inward rather than pushing hard to accomplish everything at once.
How The Energy Changes Later in the Week
Thankfully, by Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, the energy shifts in a delightful and supportive way. Both the Sun and Mercury in Virgo form a happy relationship with Jupiter in Cancer. This feels uplifting, expansive, and encouraging.
This is the kind of energy that helps ideas flow and invites clarity.
On Saturday, Mercury goes cazimi the Sun which means Mercury withdraws into the sacred sanctuary of the Sun and gains access to divine wisdom that it doesn’t normally have. When a planet is cazimi, it’s like it’s sitting in a sacred space where messages from Spirit and insight from the universe can flow directly to us. This is a time to be attentive, to sit quietly with your intentions, and to capture the sparks of inspiration that come through.
What To Do
Take notes this week when inspiration comes. It might come in handy later.
Because Mercury is strong in Virgo, this weekend is also a time to focus on details, planning, and scheduling. This Mercurial energy is perfect for tuning into subtle guidance from your ancestors and spirit allies. If you notice any ideas, insights, or patterns emerging that feel too precise or specific to be coincidence, know that you are receiving messages meant to help you this week.
Keep a notepad or journal handy, because your mind will be buzzing with possibilities, strategies, and inspiration that you can capture and turn into actionable plans for growth in your business. And if you really want to harness this energy, do the 7-Day Mini Journal Art Spell for Receiving Messages from Your Spirit Allies and Ancestors About Your Business in 2026. I share a step-by-step video tutorial below that you can come back to all week long as I guide you each day on which planet to work with and how exactly to work with it to receive messages about your business for the year ahead.
And of course, you can also download the hand-drawn third-eye spell I include. Print the page with my hand-drawn spell on it and use it as the base of your mini journal. In the video below, I show you exactly how to fold the page after it is printed so it becomes the mini journal you can use for your spell this week.
However, you decide to work with the astrology of this week to grow your business, notice what comes up, trust the insights that arrive, and be open to receiving guidance that will support you in growing your business in ways you haven’t yet imagined.
HOW TO WORK WITH THIS WEEK’S ASTROLOGY IN YOUR BUSINESS
As I explained, you may notice that your energy feels a little lower, and your focus isn’t as sharp as usual on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. Think reflection and contemplation on those days rather than pushing hard to check things off your to-do list. Try not to force planning or productivity in these early days of the week if you can help it.
Be gentle with yourself and give yourself permission to rest, reflect, and simply observe. Even if it feels like your energy or output isn’t at its usual pace, this kind of quieter energy can still be incredibly valuable because it’s giving you a chance to tune inward and notice subtle ideas, feelings, or messages that might otherwise be missed.
As I mentioned, by Thursday through Saturday there’s more time to step forward and take action that aligns with your soul’s calling. Use this energy to communicate with your audience in meaningful ways, to launch a project or offer that feels deeply significant to you or to speak your truth in ways that matter.
With Mercury in divine union with the Sun, this week is perfect for expressing from the place in you that is eternal, wise, and connected to Spirit.
Share messages from your soul, your essence, or your inner leader.
Carve Time Out to Connect with Your Soul
Even if you don’t feel ready to take action, simply carving out sacred moments to contemplate and get curious about what your soul wants to express can be a powerful use of the energy this week. Ask yourself:
What is my essence here to share?
What does my spirit want to communicate through my business?
Sitting with these questions opens the door to deeper insights and helps you align your daily business actions with your larger life purpose.
Developing a relationship with this deeper, eternal part of yourself can transform how you approach your work. Your soul’s perspective often sees possibilities, patterns, and opportunities that your conscious mind doesn’t notice. Plus, it remembers who you really are, what you’re truly capable of and what actually matters to you.
By creating intentional pauses in your routine to listen to this inner guidance, you can make decisions, plan projects, and communicate in your business in ways that feel deeply meaningful and aligned.
There is always a deeper layer to explore.
The more you know and honor your soul as you grow your business, the more authentic, aligned, and powerful your business becomes.
HOW THIS WEEK’S ASTROLOGY MIGHT AFFECT YOUR HIGHLY SENSITIVE NATURE
As I described, at the beginning of the week, you may notice your energy feels lower than usual. You might feel depleted, unmotivated, or less inspired than you’d like. If you have a history of trauma, chronic illness, or emotional neglect, this can be discouraging. It’s easy to start believing that low energy means something about your worth, your abilities, or the future success of your business but it doesn’t. Feeling tired, reflective, or less inspired is simply part of natural rhythms. Ups and downs are normal and when you’re in a down, it’s a temporary phase, not a life sentence.
I’m going to repeat that again, feeling tired, depleted or uninspired doesn’t mean anything negative about you or your business.
Don’t Believe Everything You Think
If you notice negative self-talk creeping in, such as, “I’m not productive enough” or “I can’t handle this,” please take a pause and gently remind yourself: your success and your power aren’t determined by how energized you feel or how much you get done on any given day.
Your business, your soul magic, and your ability to create impact are not dependent on always being on a high.
Recognizing this is the first step in honoring yourself, your energy and your limits, while still moving forward.
As the week unfolds, your intuition may feel amplified. You might notice nudges, ideas, or physical sensations guiding you toward what’s most important in your business. Emotional responses may be strong as you’re receiving messages, ideas or inspiration. Pay attention to the signals from your deeper self this week. They are messages helping you tune into your priorities and your unique path.
HOW THIS WEEK’S ASTROLOGY MIGHT AFFECT YOUR CLIENTS OR CUSTOMERS
This week, the energy is strong for receiving guidance and tuning into subtle messages, which means your clients and customers may be especially drawn to your clarity and intuition. Your more sensitive members of your audience can feel the shifts in your energy even before you say a word.
When you show up calm, grounded, and connected to your inner guidance, it will be contagious and can help them feel safe, seen, and understood.
You also might notice that your messaging, offers, or content feels a little different than usual this week. Maybe you feel inspired to share something deeper, more aligned with your soul, or to speak from a new place of wisdom. These subtle shifts are guided by the energy of Mercury and the Sun working in harmony with Jupiter and they’re telling you that what you’re feeling and tuning into matters, and your audience can feel it too.
What Your Clients Need
At the same time, pay attention to your clients’ needs this week. Some may come to you with questions, concerns, or energy that reflects the subtle challenges of the week: low motivation, uncertainty, or mental overwhelm. Remember that their struggles may not be about you or your offerings and they may just be feeling the collective depletion from earlier in the week, or their own nervous system responding to this sensitive energy. Try your best to stay present, patient, and attuned. Offer clarity where you can.
Notice which clients’ needs seem to align with the messages you are receiving this week from Spirit or your inner guidance. These moments are often signposts pointing to the areas where you might be able to help them. What you notice in your clients or customers this week might even hint at opportunities or directions for growth in 2026. By staying tuned in to your intuition, keeping their needs in mind, and remaining gentle with yourself, you can show up in a way that is supportive, aligned and helpful.
HOW TO LEAD YOUR COMMUNITY IN THIS WEEK’S ASTROLOGY
This week, if it applies to you, you can show your audience how to slow down, listen, and notice the subtle guidance that’s available to them.
For example, you can share prompts or questions that encourage them to connect with their own spirit allies, ancestors, or inner wisdom. You can invite them to pause and ask, “What is Spirit showing me about my next steps this week?” or “Which part of my business or creative work needs my attention now?”
Help Your Audience Reflect
Encourage journaling and reflection. This is a simple but powerful way for people to practice aligning with guidance in their own lives. You can model this by sharing your own experience. You can share what you noticed or what you captured in your mini journal as you listened to your spirit allies or ancestors this week or you can share how a small nudge from Spirit shifted your thinking or decisions. Showing your process teaches that receiving guidance doesn’t require big leaps, complex rituals, or perfection. It reminds your audience that all they need is presence, trust, and attention.
Help Your Audience Slow Down
You can lead by example in other subtle ways too. Let your audience see that it’s okay to pause, slow down, or take time to connect before making a decision.
Finally, remind your audience that their connection with Spirit or their ancestors can influence how they show up for their clients or customers too. Your example helps them see that aligning with Spirit isn’t separate from running a business. Instead, it’s part of it. By modeling this balance, you give them permission to bring their full, intuitive, highly sensitive selves into their work, which ultimately allows them to serve others in more meaningful and confident ways.
Of course, this way of leading isn’t going to look the same for every business, and it may not feel directly applicable to every client or every service you offer. That’s okay. Even if your work isn’t “witchy” or spiritual in nature, there’s still real value in reminding people (and yourself) that you carry your own answers.
Pausing to reflect, checking in with your intuition, or simply noticing what feels aligned and true in a decision are all ways of connecting with your inner guidance. Sometimes, just the gentle act of acknowledging that you already have wisdom inside you can shift your perspective, build confidence, and help you show up more clearly and authentically for the people you serve.
It’s a small, subtle reminder but one that can ripple out in surprisingly powerful ways through your business, your creativity, and the way you relate to others this week.
HOW TO HARNESS THIS WEEK’S ASTROLOGY IN YOUR ART MAGIC
This week, we’re focusing on a really special theme: receiving messages from your spirit allies and ancestors about your business in 2026. I guide you through a simple, 7-day art spell using a mini 8-page journal that you can create from just one sheet of paper. Remember, this isn’t about making perfect art. It’s about taking 10 sacred minutes each day to slow down, connect with your inner guidance, and invite insight about your business for the year ahead.
An Overview
Here’s how it works: start by folding your paper into a small journal. Use the cover page to set your intention: ask to receive clear, loving, and practical guidance from Spirit and your ancestors. Then, each day of the week, we’ll create one page in the journal, using the energy of the planets and the days of the week to guide your practice.
- Sunday / Sun: Begin by centering yourself and focusing on your core business purpose. Ask Spirit and your ancestors to send messages about your path in the year ahead. What does my spirit want me to know about my business in 2026?
- Monday / Moon: Tune into your emotions. Notice what feels aligned, resonant, or inspiring for 2026. This is about emotional guidance. When you think about your business in 2026, what sensations do you feel in your body and what emotions arise in your heart?
- Tuesday / Mars: Explore where courage and action are needed. Ask, What action steps should I take in 2026? Let yourself notice any nudges or sparks to take action in ways that feel right.
- Wednesday / Mercury: Ask for practical, clear and detailed guidance. What should my main focus for 2026 be?
- Thursday / Jupiter: Expand your vision. Invite insight into growth, opportunities, and abundance. What big dreams should I stay open to in 2026?
- Friday / Venus: Bring in guidance about relationships, collaboration, and creative expression. What kind of relationships should my business focus on in 2026? What creative project should I give the highest priority to in 2026?
- Saturday / Saturn: Commit to act on the guidance you’ve gathered. What do I most need to commit to in 2026?
It’s More Than That
Over these seven days, you’re not just creating an art journal, you’re building a daily ritual that connects your business decisions to your deeper guidance, intuition, and spiritual support. By the end of the week, you’ll have a full mini-journal filled with insight, inspiration, and clarity to help you step confidently into your next year of business.
The video below was designed to guide you step by step through the 7-day art spell.
But this video is more than just instructions. It is also a short, gentle meditation. You can listen to it while you create, or even right before you sit down with your journal. The meditation helps you slow down, settle into your body, and attune to the energy of the day whether that’s tuning into your personal power, connecting with Spirit and your ancestors, or asking for guidance about the next steps in your business.
In other words, my intention is that this video helps you do your art spell and create a sacred, focused space for your business planning, reflection, and magic. It supports you in showing up fully with your mind, heart, and spirit so that each page of your mini journal becomes a conversation with your intuition, your spirit allies, and your ancestors.
Enjoy.
