/ Twist the Leaf / 1 Comment

On Sunday 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 New Moon in Pisces prompts are brought to you by MoonMamaOracle.

MetaZoo Seance Tarot Cards

A card to represent my New Moon in Pisces energy.

Six of Wands – You’re feeling a bit of social pressure at the moment. Make sure it’s something valid you are perceiving, and not something imagined when in reality everyone is fine with you. This is far more likely the case.

Where can my imagination take me this New Moon?

Eight of Cups – Right off a cliff… if you let it.

How can I use my imagination to tap in to my goals?

Ten of Pentacles – Imagine what you want to manifest in your life instead of worrying about what you don’t. Just recently I watched an Amazon Prime movie called The Secret: Dare to Dream with Katie Holmes and Josh Lucas, which dealt with this exact topic. Sometimes optimism isn’t a denial of reality, but rather it’s choosing to hope that something better is possible.

What dreams am I ready to manifest?

Four of Wands – Your goals of stability, security, and comfort are ready for some work towards manifestation. You have the ability to return your home to a stress free happy place now that you have brought back a housekeeper to help start getting things in order.

How can I open up to my own magic to manifest?

Knight of Swords – Focus on your ambitions and be a little impulsive. Just make sure you are moving in the right direction.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Knight of Wands Rx – Take your time.

Where is my power during this full moon?

The World – You have the opportunity to embrace transition with this full moon. Use the peak energy of this Leo Full Moon to mark the end of a journey that needs set behind you and foster a new, fresh start with vigor.

What belief, relationship, or habit no longer serves me?

Two of Cups – Take a close look at those relationships that you have in the past felt closest to, as there is one among them that you are no longer aligned with. You do not need to hang on to these relationships when they no longer serve a purpose.

What area of life could benefit from me taking a risk?

Temperance – You do not have to be “on” all of the time. Downtime and moderation does not mean things are going to fall apart on you. It’s okay to step away now and then. When you allow yourself to take a risk and lean into moderation, you will find a gift of balance waiting for you there.

Where am I being called to be creative and think outside the box?

The Empress – Self-care and nurturing doesn’t have to be the same old thing over and over again. If you’re feeling a little bored with your regular self-care routines, it’s okay to shake things up and try new things.

Where am I seeking validation in my life?

The Hermit atop Eight of Cups – You need validation that assures you that it’s okay that your “alone time” needs are changing. You’ve enjoyed the same alone time for a very long time, but lately that need has been changing a bit and the alone time you’ve been indulging in hasn’t been healthy.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Ace of Swords Rx – Don’t close yourself off or hold back in communicating with others. They are clamoring to keep you from retreating into yourself and your old mote solitary habits.

New Moon in Aquarius Tarot Reading with Tarot FaunaIn which area do I need to think outside the box?

The Hermit – New and healthy alone time ideas are needed. You’re feeling a bit uninspired by some of your old methods, so it’s time to look at developing some new ones that are just as healthy.

What version of “me” do I want to embody?

Ten of Feathers – The survivor. I don’t want to be the victim or the one that is left bloody and dead in the dust, but rather the survivor who, even when injured, picks themselves up and continues onward.

How can I make myself more seen and heard?

Ace of Rocks – Inspire others to look for hidden opportunities. Show them just how much potential life holds if you’re willing to open yourself up to it.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

King of Torches – It’s okay to go after what you want, just bring others along for the ride. You’re not alone, but are instead leading an army in your wake.

Fuel: How can I express my emotions in a way that nurtures them?

Four of Wands – When you express your comfort and happiness in being around others, they feel more comfortable doing the same with you. We all need to hear these things sometimes.

Magical Peak: Where in my life can I call in my soul family?

Page of Pentacles  – Let those you hold dear (of the living, dead, and other) help you in staying positive during times when you feel like things are moving at a snail’s pace.

Purging: What emotional rubble can be released into the Void?

Three of Swords – Remember that once you have expressed your disappointment, it’s time to let it go. Letting the disappointment continue to linger is harmful to you and has no positive outcomes or benefits.

Clear Mirror: Where does my inner knowing conflict with internal desires?

Four of Swords – Just because you know you need to rest, and that it’s an important and essential part of life, doesn’t mean that it’s what you really want to do with your time. Neither does it make it any less necessary just because you want to skip it.

Dancing Luminaries: How can I honor my spirit through this material body?

Three of Wands – Stay on course with the path you have chosen. Sometimes distractions can happen, but you need to make sure that you are orienting back onto your path and not getting mired in the weeds.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Knight of Pentacles atop Temperance – Now is the time of slowing down in your life, and you’re going to have to tap into your patience and keep moderation in mind as you move forward. Don’t let the slow pace fool you into thinking you’re not making any progress.

What have I been avoiding that I need to face?

Wheel of Fortune Rx – Shit happens, and you’re not as prepared as could (or perhaps should) be. You need to sit down and make a plan on how to prepare for those things you know are coming down the line… and for those things that might just spring up and slap you in the face by surprise as well.

What secrets need to come into the light?

Four of Candy Canes – Your home is a lot less put together than you want to admit, and it messes with your sense of comfort and  homecoming. You really need to get yourself another housekeeper to help out in keeping things up to the standard that makes you comfortable and happy.

What conversation needs to be had?

Two of Icicles atop Four of Cookies – Your “sense of security” needs to know that you still choose him. Talk with him and assure him that he is what you need.

Where do I need to take decisive action that I’ve been putting off?

King of Cookies – You can only self-destruct so long before you need to rebuild your empire. It’s time to let responsibility toward your work and finances to take the forefront.

What shadow aspect requires integration?

Queen of Mugs – Instead of sinking into disappointment with yourself, give yourself and your emotions the nurturing comfort that they need. No need to be harsh and judgmental.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Ace of Cups atop Seven of Mugs Rx – The road forward doesn’t have as many distractions as you think. Orient yourself towards what your emotions and intuition say is right at this time.

Where am I deluding myself?

Five of Swords – There is a price that must be paid for success and accomplishment.  You cannot expect to go full speed ahead and not feel the consequences of lack of rest.

What am I missing?

The World – Everything.  At this time you are so focused upon your work that there is very little outside of that venue that is able to catch your attention.  You are missing the joy of the holidays, the lives of those around you, even the observance of your own needs to an extent.  Right now, at this time in your life, there’s no room to see any of these things… and you are missing them all.

What perceptions need to be shifted?

Ten of Cups – You need to remember what makes you emotionally happy and reach for those things and people that can touch upon your emotions and keep them thriving and satisfied, even when the rest of your world is a chaos of rushing and deadlines.

What requires further investigation?

Six of Swords – What isn’t working for you and needs to be left behind?  It’s hard to focus on these things during the holiday season, but perhaps this is the best time to be examining them… as you can see in the moment what needs to change and what transformations you can apply to make things better moving forward.

What possibilities are ready to show themselves?

Three of Wands atop Seven of Cups Rx – There have been a lot of different goals and routes forward lain out before you over the past year.  Here we see that all of these myriad of possibilities are being narrowed down to just one. One path forward.  You have the opportunity to condense and focus right now, and align everything to move together in the same direction while shedding what isn’t needed.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Two of Swords – Kindness is important, even when you are so busy you can barely breathe. It is a choice.  A choice that takes no extra time, and no extra effort to give than sharp words and actions.  Make sure you are making choices that are good for both you and others in how you communicate with them.  Your words can sometimes be too sharp.
