Growth Takes Time

/ Twist the Leaf / Leave a comment

Today’s meditation was skipped.

Titanic Tarot Spirits Rising Edition - Queen of CoinsToday’s draw is the Queen of Pentacles, which is traditionally a representation of a receptive alpha energy, personality, or person in the area of one’s finances, resources, home, health, and manifestations. This often translates into themes of nurturing energy that holds the weight of responsibility for others.

One of the aspects of the Coins (Pentacles) suit is in its modality.  It is a slow suit, with an inclination for things that take time and patience, and it’s patience that I see in the imagery of today’s card.

Patience is important, especially when working to foster growth in either yourself or others, because whether we want it to or not, growth takes time. Today’s card encourages us to acknowledge that need for time… that need for patience, and give yourself and those things you work to foster and grow the time and space it needs to flourish without being rushed and pushed.

On a personal note, you did a few things last fall that you knew would set back your business a bit. Now that the holiday rush is over you are feeling the repercussions of that more keenly. Remember that it will level out, it’s just going to take some time for things to adjust.

Questions for January 28th

Titanic Tarot Spirits Rising Edition - Nine of Cups, Three of Coins, Two of Wands, Knight of SwordsWhat needs have I neglected that are important for the self?

Nine of Cups and Three of Coins – Collaboration is the key to  success. Don’t forget that you can’t do everything yourself. There’s still plenty of stuff you can allow others to help you with. Just because the holiday rush is over doesn’t mean they aren’t ready and willing to continue helping where they can.

In what area can listening to my needs help me right now?

Two of Wands and Knight of Swords – Listening to your needs right now can help keep you from feeling stuck, and will assist you in normalizing the behavior of seeking help from others, so that when things are hectic, it becomes something natural to do instead of a plan you have to execute at that time.

Finding Rest Cartomancy Reading

/ Twist the Leaf / 1 Comment

The prompt for this reading came from one of my Discord servers and is as follows: “Let’s ask our divination tool of choice how we can better find rest in our lives, what we need a break from, and how we can get more of the downtime we need!“

Standarte 1815 Playing CardsWhat do I need a break from?

King of Hearts and Ten of Spades – Subdrop. Mini-death-and-rebirth moments of misery that lie at Gideon’s feet. There’s been a bit of a struggle with this lately and avoidance because of it. Maybe it’s time to try something new for a bit rather than going onward with the same.

How can I better find rest in my life?

Ace of Spades and Queen of Diamonds – Communicate your needs clearly and allow others to help in fulfilling them. You don’t have to deal with everything all on your own all the time.  Let others assist you in finding the answers you need.

How can I get more of the down time I need?

Eight of Hearts and Four of Diamonds – Put down “want to” efforts and focus on only the “need to” things on your list for a while. Pressuring yourself into doing more just because you can doesn’t make it good or healthy for you.

How can I get the most benefit out of my down time?

Nine of Spades atop Two of Diamonds – Do not allow your worries and anxieties to drive you into unbalanced behaviors.
