Today’s card is the Star combined with the affirmation “You’re handling it all well. You’ll be okay.”
The Star card is about hope, and even more specifically, it is about faith. Today’s cards are a reminder that you can’t push back against that negative inner narrative in your head and it’s influence on your life if you’re not actually pushing back.
Positivity and optimism do not come easily to you, but in using them as a tool to push back against those negative thoughts, they make a difference. Don’t allow anxiety to take control and spiral you into darkness. Instead? Lean into positive thinking and allow it to help lift you up and keep you afloat.

June 8 – Mental Health Card of the Day
Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was one of the #DailyCalm sessions from the Calm app. The topic of today’s meditation was about enlightenment, and how it’s not when we seek enlightenment that we find it. Rather, it’s when we go about our everyday lives and begin to acknowledge the sacred in the every day that our journey to enlightenment begins.

Today’s card is the King of Swords (Odin) combined with the affirmation “There is no one perfect way. You’re doing just fine.”
Clever comes in all shapes and sizes, and is filled with innovation and new ideas. When you build the lore of your own life, are you going to want to look at all you’ve done and say “I colored inside the lines” or, alternately, are you going to want to look back and say “I did it MY way and it was brilliant”?
The cards for today are a reminder that coloring inside the lines is boring. Break the mold and do things your way. Show the world just how clever and innovative and original you are, instead of trying to conform to what you think everyone else wants. Be a trail blazer instead of another of the sheep.
Even the greatest of leaders sometimes have moments of uncertainty. That doesn’t mean that they back down and fall in line among the masses, but rather that they continue to walk their own path despite those moments.

Today’s cards are the Two of Pentacles combined with the “Overcast” affirmation card.
The Overcast affirmation card is all about the moody comfort of days in the comfort of overcast skies, and time taken to evaluate one’s life and oneself. The card asks you to examine how things are going in your relationships, your work, your hobbies and home life. To look at these areas of importance in your life and focus on what’s going -well- in them as well as what could be improved upon.
The Two of Pentacles combined with this card brings in the aspect of balance into this examination and evaluation. Where are you pushing too hard? Where aren’t you pushing hard enough and need to ease up? How do these different aspects of your life play against each other. Are you balancing them well? Or is something being neglected… or perhaps over-attended to?
Balance is not easy, and it’s a constant challenge of change and adaptation. Balance, though, is easier to obtain and maintain if you’re willing to take a step back every once in a while to look at the big picture, and how different parts of your life are interacting with each other.
