Marseille by Night Tarot's Four of Wands and The Lovers CardThe @GlitterbyInk #FairyTales25 Challenge
Once Upon a Time Prompt for February 1 : Dream

Today’s draw is the Lovers combined with the Four of Wands.

Utilize what is familiar and known as tools in reaching your goals.

Dreams are built on innovation, but they’re also built on hard work.  Even if the dream you hold dear is a new idea, remember that you don’t have to reinvent the wheel to get there. The skills and abilities that are already under your belt are there for you to use to further your dreams and goals, no matter what those dreams and goals are, and no matter how new and innovative they are.

The Energy Dragon Tarot's Queen of Wands and King of PentaclesThe @GlitterbyInk #FairyTales25 Challenge
Once Upon a Time Prompt for February 2 : Adventure

Today’s draw is the Queen of Wands atop the King of Pentacles.

The Queen of Wands conceals her face while looking down to the King of Pentacles, wondering… is he playing with his junk, or concealing it?

There are secrets in her, while he seems content just to let everything hang out. The suspicion and caution within the interaction between these two cards all resides with her.

The moral of the story here is that sometimes you can show all your cards and still be suspect in the eyes of others. Some people will never trust, as they are too busy pouring all their energy into long practiced distrust and skepticism.

Don’t allow these people to hold you back or thwart your goals. Don’t allow them to disrupt your stability. Just because their focus is on you doesn’t mean that your focus has to be on them.

Prompt for February
: Do the Imbolc Spread

Imbolc Oracle Reading with the Seasons of the Witch Imbolc Oracle

What seeds need planted in my life right now?

Brigid’s Doll – It is important to lean into working with the universe and the natural progression of things, instead of plowing ahead and always pushing. In your practice you work with and revere the elements and energies of creation, evolution, and balance. You need to remember that an important part of that process and path lies in the words “working with” as in, in alignment with.  As in… alongside.  Force is not a part of this equation.

What preparations do I need to begin making to prepare those seeds for growth?

Consecrate Tools – Cleanse and realign with your purpose and your goals. The stress you have gone through recently has given you the opportunity to re-evaluate, but that is only the first step. You need to ensure that you actually  prepare as well.  That means cleaning out the old, and re-dedicating yourself and your tools to your new path.

What in my life is beginning a phase of reawakening and renewal?

Aquarius – Three is a budding need in your life to reconnect outside yourself in order to see your true path and align yourself with it once more. Touch base with nature and the earth, and re-establish your connection with your guides.

How can I best foster that awakening?

Bloodstone – Lean into awareness, instead of avoidance or indulging in willful ignorance. You need to move forward with your eyes open, or the progress that you’ve made will be lost.

Picture Jasper for Sense of Proportion and Grounding

I spent some time outside in the snow… for the 20 minutes or so that it was snowing. At least we finally got some! The snowflakes were massive and super floaty.
