These Saturday readings are (not usually) bearing in on any one thing or event in my life, as the question used is asking for a more general outlook. This is a self care exercise, and is not meant as a predictive reading… although that, too, happens on occasion.

The question is… What do I need to focus for self-care through the week ahead?

Earth – Ten of Spirits Rx – Use your indomitable willpower to push through what feels like the end of the line. You are far more a survivor than you realize, and this won’t be the end of the journey.

Air – The High Priestess – They say that it’s mind over matter, but in truth, it is intuition over mind. Don’t let your logical mind talk you out of knowing what you do deep down in your soul. Let your intuition lead and prove your mind wrong again and again until it eventually gets the picture.

Water – Seven of Spirits – Keep your secrets close to the chest this week. If you share too much, you’re going to feel like others have stolen from you, when in actuality you’ve given it away for free.

Fire – Queen of Cats – Put your energy and focus into giving yourself the emotional support you need, and lean into others to help provide what you cannot provide for yourself in this area.

Waning – Garden and Heart – Superficial friendships aren’t going to do you much good this week. Don’t spill your heart to those that don’t have your well-being as a priority.

Waxing – Anchor and Stork – Anchor yourself in good news and celebrate the good stuff that happens as the week unfolds. It will help lift you up when things are feeling low, and help steady you when things are feeling chaotic.

Take Away – Lean into those you trust have your best interest at heart this week and take care that you only confide in those that you trust not to stab you in the back. Even then, take care with what you are sharing with them. Listen to your intuition and stay dogged to your intuition’s voice instead of allowing logic and thought to get in the way and change the answer or stir up confusion.
