Today’s Oracle takes us to the Virgo monthly of April 2, 2007
This year’s quest is about finding your true home. If it takes a year that would be quick, though the chances are it’s gone on for a long time and you’re now getting results. The key element is not where you are, but rather how you relate to where you are. Vesta in Sagittarius is suggesting you must define your space your way. The history of Vesta worship says that the place to begin is the fireplace, be it real or symbolic, a hearth or a stove. That space where fire is tended becomes the point of devotion from which a healthy living space grows outward.
