Diary of a Skeleton Tarot, Tarot of Twisted Shadows, Voodoo Dolly Tarot, and Halloween Affirmation Cards

October 10

Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was focused on the message in today’s cards, which is…

Ace of Swords – “I am a beacon of light amongst shadows,” so make sure that you don’t allow those shadows in your thoughts and inner narratives to take over.  Stay clear headed by shining a light into those shadows with counteracting thoughts of positivity and optimism, instead of surrendering to the darker shadows that are so eager to take over at every turn.  It feels corny sometimes, but it works if you put effort into it.

The Restless – Not an actual tarot card, this is one of the bonus cards that comes in this deck. Combined with “ghosting what no longer serves me”, these cards are a reminder to not allow yourself to slide into self destructive tendencies just because you’re bored and restless. Focus on putting that energy toward something good and healthy instead.

Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was focused on the message in today’s cards, which is…

The Empress – When you take care of yourself and your needs, everything works better. Even intuition and psychic development require self care.  In the same way that plants need water and sunlight to grow, if you’re not willing to take care of yourself and meet your needs physically and otherwise, then your body, mind, and spirit are too preoccupied with those needs that aren’t being met to allow your intuition and abilities to expand toward their full potential.

Transitions

October
kisses the skin
with cool breath
and sweet drops
of cold rain
interspersed
with beautiful
skyscapes
of clouds
interspersed
with peeking
hints
of blue
from summer’s end

Tarotholics Challenge Oracle Reading

#DiscordTarotholicsOct2023 Challenge
Questions for October 12th thru 14th

Tarotholics October Challenge Reading with the Creatures Oracle

Trick: What is fooling you that needs to be seen more clearly?

Alone atop Beginnings – You are not going to be getting as much alone time as you think you will once you head home. Make sure to look at this as a good thing, for it absolutely -is- a good thing.

Treat – What special gift or skill do you have that you take for granted?

Wonder and Listen – You have the ability to stand still and silent in nature and hear its rhythms, feel its energies, and allow yourself to be carried away to blend with them so that they can soothe and calm you. You haven’t been getting out in nature much this year, and you are suffering as a result.

What do you need to focus on for self-care for the upcoming new moon?

Escape – You need to start getting out in nature more now that you are back home and working at getting back into a normal stride. Just remember, as this reading has already mentioned and a previous reading also has made clear, it’s important that you take someone with you.
