Daily Mental Health Prompt: Seek a positive message to carry with you throughout the day and offer perspective.

Rackham Tarot - The Tower

Today’s draw is The Tower card, which is traditionally a representation of sudden change, chaotic transformation, destruction, and the tearing down of something within one’s life or beliefs that leaves room for something new to take its place.

The Tower card has then been combined with the Waiting For a Sign card from The Az 2 Oracle, which says, “If you’re waiting for a sign… that waiting IS your sign. It means you want to do something, but you don’t yet trust yourself, or that your own wanting IS the sign, or perhaps you’re trying to figure out if it’s right, or good so that it doesn’t turn out wrong, or bad. In that case I’d like to remind you: have you ever had something bad turn out good? have you ever had something good turn out bad? mmmhhhmm, that’s what we thought. So we say forget trying to pin that sucker down and just let the bunny of your wanting HOP.

Taking care of things before they come to ahead allows you to have more control over the situation than waiting until everything crashes down on you. This means that sometimes instead of waiting for conditions to be perfect or for things to fall apart on their own, we need to step up and actually do that disassembling ourselves. In doing so we can create an atmosphere that is filled with less chaos and more creation.

The message in today’s Tower card and affirmation is a reminder that we don’t have to wait to make the things we want to happen come about. Sometimes it’s about getting ahead of what’s coming, instead of waiting it out or for all the chips to fall.

#DiscordTarotholicsMay2026 Challenge
Prompt for May 30th
 : What do you need to focus on for self-care for this month’s full moon?

Tarot Reading with the 5 Cent Tarot

Reading Summary: Use your time in play with Gid (Knight of Cups) to focus on slowing down (Eight of Matches Rx) and brining yourself back into balance (Temperance) this week.

Take Away: You have been super stressed over the past week, and it’s showing itself through those panic attacks you’ve been experiencing.

Gideon goes on vacation next week, so use this one to spend some quality time with him. Allow that time to help draw you back to the quiet calm within, where those anxiety attacks are less likely to find you.

Once you have managed to unwind, they will ease, and you can then use their residual energy to your advantage to get a few things done while he’s away.

Other elements included in this reading:
Dried Lavender Bundle for Calming and Comfort
Foraged Parmeliaceae Lichen for a “Breath of Fresh Air”
Selenite for Purification and drawing in Positive Energy

@ambitiouslyalexa May Journal Prompts
Prompt for May 29th and 30th

Tarot Reading with the Rackham Tarot, Citadel Oracle, and Deck of Emblems

What “enough” feels like right now

Book, Nine of Coins, The Muse

You are currently tapped out creatively and just need some time to appreciate what you have already accomplished. Pushing yourself to learn more skills at this time will only continue to keep you in that “tapped out” state.

Instead, take time to just appreciate what you have and wait for inspiration to find you. That spark of creativity will return when you’ve gotten the rest and restoration you need.

A gift hiding in my ordinary life

Purse, Eight of Coins Rx, The Enchanter

You have the ability and opportunity to take your breaks when you need them and get the rest you need to recover. It isn’t like in the early days where you had to constantly push yourself to your limits again and again.

You may sometimes feel like you’re still in that earlier space and time, but the truth is that your current situation allows you to take breaks when you need to… and you need to take them instead of falling into that punishing workaholic mindset from your past.

Other elements included in this reading:
Foraged Oak Branch with Moss and Lichen for Perseverance
Selenite for Purification and drawing in Positive Energy

DECK USED: RACKHAM TAROT, THE CITADEL ORACLE AND THE DECK OF EMBLEMS
Daily Self Kindness

I took it easy most of the day, trying to give myself a little rest and relaxation to ease up on some of the anxiety that’s been giving me some problems the last couple days.

Gideon’s Challenge – Dead Heading

Red Spot on Leaves

Dead Heading

The garden
flourishes
when you
pinch off
dead flowers
and
diseased leaves
to create space
for new and
healthy growth
to take its place
… and we
are the same
so pinch off
that leaf
that needs
to go
and let another
grow
in its place.

🌕 Full Moon in Sagittarius – May 2026

Tomorrow is the full 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 @onyerbroom

Full Blue Moon in Sagittarius Tarot Reading with the Tarot of Trees

What is repeating that needs my attention?

Page of Cups – The emotions that confuse you repeat on you like acid reflux because you are not giving them enough attention when they present themselves. Each time they repeat, they leave you raw and overwhelmed. Sit with them a bit longer and take time to explore them instead of trying to move on so quickly.

What am I avoiding that needs my attention?

Five of Pentacles – Take a closer look at your finances. Seek out those things that are adding to your feelings of scarcity and deal with them, instead of letting them continue to cause foundational discomfort and disruption.

What is closing that needs my attention?

The Star – You need to spend more time focusing upon your efforts towards incorporating hope and optimism into your life. Give yourself what you need to feel happy and complete. By not doing so, that window of positivity closes a little bit more each day, giving pessimism and your depression a foothold to take its place.

What is returning that needs my attention?

Seven of Swords – The values and ideals of others are not your own. Take the time to reconnect with what is truly important to you, rather than adopting the mindset of apathy that allows others the power and ability to push you further and further from what you feel is truly important.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Death – If the changes you see coming aren’t something you want to happen, do something about it. You don’t have to take all of it lying down, but rather learn to move and dance with the storm in order to bend rather than break.

Other elements included in this reading:
Goat Figure as Sympathetic Representation of Amalthea
Selenite for Purification and drawing in Positive Energy
