Tomorrow is the new moon, and like all new moons and full moons, I did a spread aligned to the moon’s current themes as a part of my recognition of the moon’s cycle and influences upon us. Today’s spread is courtesy of @sistersvillage
What does emotional peace look like for me right now?
Le Balet d’Epee atop Le Dix de Baton Rx – Peace right now looks like security. It’s essentially what you feel like you don’t have right now… and it’s worth considering that maybe that is what it -always- looks like; that thing you quietly long for that you don’t have in the moment the question is asked.
That is to say that in this moment, peace looks like everything going well and lots of resources to go around while you sit on the sidelines and supervise from a place where you can go unnoticed.
What needs to change in my life?
Le Diable Rx – You need to take a more active roll in brushing off the languor and desire to languish that your last depressive episode has left behind. More movement is needed. Allowing the depression to linger by indulging in behaviors that promote stagnancy is going to keep you stuck in that haze you are struggling to escape from.
What in my life feels like it’s coming to an end?
Le Sept de Denier – Long fought for stability.
You feel like the efforts of your past and the rewards garnered along the way are crumbling beneath your feet. You worked long and hard to get where you are, but even all of that work and effort that you’ve put in can’t save you from moments of instability and uncertainty.
How can I show myself more self love and compassion?
Le Huit de Denier Rx – When you don’t change up how you do things, you just set yourself up to repeat the same mistakes and re-experience the same frustrations all over again. Look at past patterns that don’t serve you (with people, with methods and/or techniques, with practices) and move in a different direction instead of repeating them.
New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.
Le Neuf d’Epee Rx – You are allowing your fears to have too much sway over your emotions and your actions. Confront your fears and break free.
