Medicine Woman Tarot, Clarity Tarot, The Land of Stories Tarot, and Thera-Pets Emotional Support Animal Cards

August 25

The Hermit – Enjoy your time off.  Don’t allow yourself to feel guilty about taking this time for yourself and enjoying it.  You need alone time in order to handle how much time you’re spending around other people, and there’s nothing to feel guilty about.  Know yourself well enough to know you need it, and give yourself what you need.

DECK USED: MEDICINE WOMAN TAROT

August 26

Nine of Swords – Worries and anxieties can make it hard sometimes to see clearly. Remember that the future isn’t written in stone and you are more than capable of dealing with what’s before you. Don’t let the “what if” scenarios in your head and negative self narratives drag you off course by giving rise to self doubts.

DECK USED: CLARITY TAROT (TRIMMED)

August 27

Eight of Pentacles – Rest assured that things will eventually return to normal. It’s coming, and you can get there.  It’s going to take hard work and diligence to make it, though. Don’t give up, just keep working at it. When you put your nose to the grindstone, you have a tendency to accomplish great things and take everyone by surprise in the process… sometimes even yourself.  This can be another one of those times.

What Is a Boundary? Tarot Reading

What is a Boundary Tarot Reading with the Tarot of the Owls

Be aware – Knight of Wands – It’s important to stay aware of the situation at hand without charging forward without thought, riding on the wings of your passion. Observation does not always require action. As Ms B becomes stronger, this is especially true. You need to let her struggle a bit while you watch on, instead of being right there to do for her every moment.

Of what is – Four of Swords – The recuperation process is well underway. Just make sure that even during rest times you are encouraging small progresses and plotting for larger ones. Give yourself down time when you can so that you can help motivate her later when she’s flagging.

Unacceptable and – Five of Swords – Butting heads gets no one anywhere right now. Instead of pushing your agenda and the things you want to see happen, and getting push back in return… choose your battles.

Normalize saying no – Justice – That way when you do actually speak up and say no about something? It’s listened to without objection, instead of seen as something that can be argued against.

Do what is best for you – Page of Cups – It is a challenge for you to identify your emotions and emotional needs. This is something you’ve been working on and developing over the past few years, but you are still just at the beginning of this journey. Just do what you can to stay in touch with these things.

And know that it’s not your – The Hanged Man – It’s not always necessary to see things from everyone else’s perspective. Sometimes your own is all that’s needed.

Responsibility to sacrifice – The Moon – When you sacrifice too much of yourself, you lose yourself in the process.  Losing your way in the dark because you’ve let too much of yourself be taken over by others is a bit of a risk right now. Make sure that you are not sacrificing your own needs too often or you could fall into this trap.

Yourself for others – The Hermit – Don’t forget your alone time and how important it is to you and your well being. Stay in touch with yourself and what’s going on inside (as encouraged in the Page of Cups above). These things are needed right now.
