These Saturday readings are (not usually) bearing in on any one thing or event in my life, as the question used is asking for a more general outlook. This is a self care exercise, and is not meant as a predictive reading… although that, too, happens on occasion.
The question is… What do I need to focus for self-care through the week ahead?
Earth – Strength – Lean into staying strong and on task this week. Allow yourself to feel empowered and use that feeling within you to influence those around you into a more positive outlook on the situation as well. You are a survivor, and you will survive anything that comes through the chord of strength that runs through you.
Air – Nine of Cups – Keep yourself uplifted by looking at all that you have accomplished. It’s okay to wallow in that sense of satisfaction and toot your own horn sometimes. It doesn’t make you egocentric or look like an ass to appreciate how far you’ve come and all you’ve accomplished.
Water – Judgment atop Ace of Coins – Make sure when you’re looking at new opportunities that you are taking into account the journey you are on with your emotional growth. Check in with that journey and your emotions before taking on anything new and make sure that it aligns with these efforts, no matter how good it might look.
Fire – Eight of Cups – Ensure that you are shedding what (and who) doesn’t serve you, rather than trying to cling to it and ending up frustrated as a result when it doesn’t follow through on what you want.
Waning – Heart and Key – Understanding and forgiveness may not be your best option in the week ahead. Being too softhearted is not the answer. Instead of letting them off the hook when situations arise, step back and allow it to sit for a time.
Waxing – Stork and Man – Oh look. J did not take the condom advice. He’s going to need some extra support this week. Don’t tell him “I told you so”. He’s going to need your support this week when the news comes in.
