The @GlitterbyInk #FebYOUary26 Moments & Memories Challenge
Prompt for February 14th : Release
Daily Mental Health Prompt: Seek a positive message to carry with you throughout the day and offer perspective.

Today’s draw is the Eight of Cups, which is traditionally a representation of withdrawal, abandonment, or letting go of things, situations, or people in your life that are just not working out for you emotionally.

Look at the rejection in the moon’s facial expression. The card couldn’t have said “I’m done with this shit” any better if it wrote the words out on the card.

Everyone has that line in the sand. Some reach it far faster and easier than others, but all of us have it. That line where things are just too much. Our emotions have been so invested, and we come to the realization it’s not working out, and have to say “fuck it” and walk away.

It boils down to boundaries. Boundaries give us the ability to walk away when we need to, sometimes even if we don’t -want- to. Because if we don’t? Then they learn that they can walk all over your boundaries and treat you however they want.

The message in today’s Eight of Cups and “release” prompt is a reminder that sometimes we have to walk away even when we don’t want to. If it’s not working, it’s not working. Let go and find something better suited… or someone who will respect you and your boundaries instead of constantly pushing them, challenging them, and sweeping them under the rug.

#DiscordTarotholicsFeb2026 Challenge
Prompt for February 12th and 13th

Where you need a little extra support at this time.

Knight of Cups and New Beginnings – You are struggling to find direction, which includes struggling with even identifying what you want in the first place. This is leaving you feeling both stuck and a bit listless at a time when new opportunities are on offer and choices need to be made.

Someone or something that can offer you the support you need.

Six of Cups and Protection – Look to those you have long standing relationships with and have proven themselves through their past actions.

J, in particular, fits this description. Consider discussing with him how you’re feeling, and see what nuggets of wisdom and/or support he might be able to offer to you.

Other elements included in this reading:
Dried Red Maple Leaf for Adaptability and Connection
Rose Quartz for Gentle Kindness to Self and Others
Clear Quartz for a boost of Intentional Energies

DECK USED: MACALON TAROT AND GOLDEN AGE OF ROMANCE COMICS ORACLE

@ambitiouslyalexa’s February Journal Prompts
Prompt for February 14th : A way I can soften my expectations

Reading Summary – Make the changes necessary (Death) to stop prioritizing those things that create overwhelm (Ten of Wands) above self-care and healthy choices (The Lovers).

Take Away – This is an echo of a previous reading I did recently… and, it’s honestly something I need to hear. Maybe hearing it a few times will help drill it into my head?

The thing is, our needs are not luxuries to be doled out as rewards. I have a tendency to treat them that way, pushing myself until I’m ready to break, then giving myself the bare minimum needed to ensure I can keep going.

I’ve gotten better about this over the past couple years or so, but I still have a long way to go in this area.

Other elements included in this reading:
Conch Shell Knot for Concentration, Clarity, and Determination
Gneiss Stone for Patience in Moments of Discomfort
Selenite for Purification and drawing in Positive Energy

DECK USED: KANJI TAROT

I took a nap in the car while J drove some of today.
