Today’s meditation was a self directed ten minute session that focused on the affirmation on the back of the Witch Magick card drawn for today.

The affirmation: “Facing and embracing something you fear will supercharge your magickal powers.”

Today’s draw is The World card, which is traditionally a representation of the end of a journey, the completion of a time of growth, accomplishment, and transitioning from one path in life to another.

I don’t know about supercharging your magical power, but I do know that facing your fears is empowering. The experience helps to reduce and/or eradicate one’s fear response to whatever it is, and that creates a sense of greater freedom.

This reward is always waiting for us, but is especially important when our fear is an obstacle to completing a journey. Not only are you one step closer to the finish line when you face your fears in these instances, you are also given an energetic lift from the experience that can revitalize you and your motivation.

Today’s messages is a reminder that there is an unseen, but very much felt boon to confronting our fears instead of hiding from them, and encourages us to seek out those fears that have become obstacles to our goals, and face them rather than trying to avoid them. For when we avoid them, we are also avoiding the success they are blocking us from achieving and the goals we seek to accomplish.

#DiscordTarotholicsSep2025 Challenge
Prompts for September 23rd and 25th

What still needs harvesting this season?

You’ve been thinking about returning to be a personal trainer for a while (Trainer). Maybe now is the time to take a closer look at this option. It pays well, and gives you the benefit of having long-term clients (Seven of Pentacles) to work with and interact (Ace of Swords) with instead of a swath of strangers.

Goal – Destiny – To find ways to adjust to the unpredictable and unexpected manipulations of the universe. You don’t don’t handle unpredictability well, and there’s been a lot of that of late. It messes with your sense of stability. You need to learn to ease up on your control a bit, so that there’s more wiggle room when things go awry unexpectedly.

Pros – Slave – The pros of working toward this goal is that you are no longer tied to the expectation that things are going to go a specific way, and thus thrown off when they don’t. This gives you more adaptability, allowing you to yield more easily when necessary.

Cons – Relaxing – The cons involved with this goal is that you struggle with the worry that in releasing that grip of control, you are going to end up falling into habits that are lazy and lackadaisical.

Obstacles – Strength and Knight of Cups – you have a tendency to act on what you feel to keep the status quo in your favor, rather than allowing things to go at their own pace and in their own directions. This natural inclination makes it hard for you to just relax, let go, and let things happen.

Solutions – Two of Cups and The Sun – Allow those close to you that you trust to help lift you up and keep you positive as you strive to accomplish this goal. They can help distract you from your uncertainty and your discomfort, making it easier to let go of that control without panicking about it.

I worked harder today at keeping myself from retreating into myself. I am struggling with the pull of depression at the moment.

Today’s meditation was a self directed ten minute session that was focused on a Forest Meditation card, which states, “The Home of Senses” and, in the guidebook, encourages seeking comfort in your surroundings by expanding your senses and letting them guide you, then focusing in on what drew you in the first place.

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 Wands, which is traditionally a representation of action, speed, alacrity, fast paced events or change, or having a target goal in your sights that you are charging towards.

Where in your life do you feel most at ease? Where is that place where your inner tension eases up and the knot in your solar plexus unfolds? Is it your own home where you find that deep breath for the soul? Is it another house? In the woods? In your car? At the beach?

We all need these moments where we breathe easier and tension falls away. We all have places where we don’t have to work at these moments of peace, but instead it feels almost as if they’re gifted to us.

Today’s message asks us where these places are for you, and encourages visiting them and appreciating them posthaste.

There will always be times when you need that breath of air for the soul and ease of tension. The message for today is an encouragement to identify where these places are, acknowledge what those places gift us, and not to hold back on giving yourself that when you need it.

#DiscordTarotholicsSep2025 Challenge
Prompt for September 21st : Do the Second Harvest Spread

Amber – Where do I need to work on my emotions to create more balance in my life?

Taco Drake – Your issues with scarcity mean that you’re always grasping for more and never feel like you have enough. This mentality translates to your emotions that you are never enough and can never do good enough. To create more balance in your life, you need to work on easing up on this cycle that your issues with scarcity create.

Cedar – How can I use my present day fortitude to strengthen my future protection?

Pansy Plucker – Even during times when you are struggling and at the end of your rope, make sure that you are continuing to seek out the small pleasures and little joys in life. Being able to bring this positive practice forward with you into the future will help to protect you from the negative self talk in your head.

Marigold – Where should I focus on my health in order to develop a happier outlook?

Metal Nibbler – Pause before you put stuff in your mouth. Work on eating healthier, instead of just grabbing whatever is available and easy. Quick snacks are all well and good until it turns out that that’s all you’re eating all day long. When your diet is balanced, you feel happier and healthier.

Walnut – How can I be more discerning in picking positive friendships?

Teacup Lung – Make sure that those you choose to associate with aren’t adding more drama to your life. Look for those that are there to support you when you need it and care about your well-being, instead of having their own ulterior motives that leave them unconcerned with your struggles.

Sapphire – How can I best discern between logical thought and true wisdom?

Tinker Imp – Play with these thoughts and look at how to apply them to different scenarios in life. Wisdom doesn’t need tinkering, but logic often does.

Yarrow – How can I move from a place of trauma into a place of healing?

Oracle Wyvern – Stay open to working with your ancestors and guides. They are there to help you if you’re open to it, and will come to you when you’re ready if you trust them to step in when needed; but no sooner.
