Daily Reading for Friday, December 8, 2023
Card: Temperance (Upright)
Moon: 17% Waning Crescent
Astrological Sun Sign: Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) “The Archer”
Crystals: Rainbow Fluorite, Clear Quartz, and Moonstone

Today’s Number: 9 (Compassion, Humanitarianism, and Completion)
Today’s card is Temperance, the 15th card in the Major Arcana, guiding us to seek balance, harmony, and moderation. In Numerology, the number 15 reduces to 6 (1+5=6). Interestingly, in Dante’s Inferno, the 6th Deadly Sin is Gluttony. Unlike the historical Temperance movement that advocated total abstinence, the Temperance tarot card reminds us that it’s acceptable to enjoy life in moderation. As we head into the weekend, remember to have fun while finding that sweet spot between restraint and excess.
Take care, dear ones. -Maggie
P.S. If you are curious about where I get the daily number, I get it from the day’s date. To calculate the numerology number for today’s date, you add up all the digits:
1 + 2 + 0 + 8 + 2 + 0 + 2 + 3 = 18
Now, you can further reduce it to a single-digit number by adding the digits of 18:
1 + 8 = 9
So, the numerology number for December 8, 2023, is 9.
