The @GlitterbyInk #FebYOUary26 Moments & Memories Challenge
Prompt for February 8th : Loss
Daily Mental Health Prompt: Seek a positive message to carry with you throughout the day and offer perspective.

Today’s draw is The Fool card, which is traditionally a representation of innocence, carelessness, carefree enthusiasm, and new beginnings.

Just as love can sometimes cause us to act rashly? So can rejection.

This guy in the Fool card pulled for today looks like he just got dumped (something in the face), and is now ready to just plunge out into the world and find himself -somebody- to love (the flowers and his long stride). He’s motivated. He’s determined. And he’s misguided by the loss of his previous rejection.

It’s an act born of emotion rather than reason, and as he lets that emotion rule him, he’s sure to make some mistakes along the way that are not going to make things better.

The message in today’s Fool card and “loss” prompt is to make sure where your motivation is coming from before acting on it. Are you being driven by your emotions? Are those emotions overriding reason and good judgement? If so, perhaps put down the flowers and give it a moment before charging off rashly. It’s okay to take a breath first and make sure what you’re thinking of doing is really the answer.

#DiscordTarotholicsFeb2026 Challenge
Prompt for February 8th : Do Spread 1
February is often about making plans and preparations for the arrival of spring. Plans and preparations are great! But they are only the first step. Use the three cards pulled in this spread to discover what size you should look for to tell you when it’s finally time to take action. [Consider adding a second card to each position if you wish to include info on what area of life action will be needed in.]

Call to Action for February

Blaming You For Their Problems and Recharge – February is a time of rest for you, where you can give yourself some time for recuperation and recovery. Don’t bother trying to act on issues until they get to a point where they are blatant and harmful. There will be a bunch of niggling things that lead up to this trigger, but it isn’t until it gets to the point where the gaslighting from others is blatant that it’s time to act and deal with it head on. Until then, just sit back and watch them dig their own hole.

Call to Action for March

Playing Mind Games and Hidden Agenda – Eventually everyone’s motivations come out in the open, no matter how hard they try to hide them. Act from a place of integrity in order to force others to share their own motivations. Wait for when they show their true colors. Remember that you aren’t the one who plays the games, you’re the one who puts an end to the games.

Call to Action for April

Criticizing Appearance and Bouncing Back – Dealing with other people’s mind games and putting out the fires that those games create can be a struggle, as can the efforts to not internalize the shit that comes out of their mouths. Remember when you start to feel an internalization of the negative variety spurred by what other people are saying to you, it’s time to step back and recalibrate so that you can bounce back fresh once again later on.

@ambitiouslyalexa’s February Journal Prompts
Prompt for February 8th :

One thing I’ve been avoiding gently

The Sun, Four of Pentacles, The Anchor – You have been trying very hard to look on the optimistic side of things where your finances are concerned, instead of buckling down and being more miserly. Just because you -can- spend doesn’t always necessarily mean that you should.

Why?

The Clouds, Two of Pentacles, The Cross – Your emotional imbalances have a tendency to create burdens you don’t particularly want to deal with. Retail therapy is a reaction to emotional imbalance. Instead of allowing these moments of imbalance to create burdens you then have to solve or resolve, try working on the emotions themselves and see if you can avoid the upheaval that these developing burdens can cause in your life.

Amethyst Buddha for Serenity in Spiritual Connections

This is a catch up post, and I’m not entirely sure what the self kindness was for this day since I didn’t write it down at the time.
