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 – Seven of Swords Rx – Don’t panic, and don’t move. Do not allow the events taking place around you too, cause you to bolt when you need to stay still.

Air – Ten of Wands – You’re going to feel the need to overburden yourself this week. Make sure that you do not go in this direction, and don’t allow yourself to get all up in your head. You’ll have plenty of overwhelmed later on when the holiday rush begins. There’s no reason to start it early with your anxiety and worries piling on.

Water – Page of Cups atop Seven of Cups Rx – Remember that you are not well-versed in your emotions and how to react to them. When they rise up, and you feel the urge to act, step back instead, and try to limit your options rather than being confused by them or trying to take on too much.

Fire – The Tower – It’s going to feel like the end of the goddamn world as a shit show ensues within the area of your passion projects and your business. Remember the advice given in the other three positions of this reading today. Don’t panic. Step back and wait it out instead of reacting or taking on too much.

Waning – Letter and Snake – Don’t let incoming communication and bad news this week set you off. Wait it out instead of reacting.

Waxing – Bear and Clouds – Times of uncertainty are hard for you to take. Make sure that you are staying solid and steadfast in your values and what you need to protect in your life. Prioritize what’s important above all else.

Take Away – No jumping the gun on the holiday rush this year, no matter how hard you emotions and fears push you to do so. Savor every moment you can before it begins. When chaos lands in your lap, make sure you don’t panic.  Pause and stay still instead, while remembering it’ll pass and isn’t half as bad as it seems in the moment.
