Student Tarot n7's Strength Card and Inner F*cking Peace CardsThe @GlitterbyInk #DivineGoddess25 Challenge
Words and Wisdom Prompt for January 6 : Empowered

Today’s draw is the Strength card combined with the affirmation “Peace, love, and yoga pants. Oh, and fuzzy slippers.”

It can be difficult to give yourself some quiet time and relax. We’re always pushing to be more, do more, and put our needs last in favor of responsibilities and progress.

It takes strength and determination sometimes, to step to the side of all that pressure and allow yourself the TLC that you need. The fact is though?  Once you’ve done it once, it’s easier to do it the next time.  Once you’ve done it twice? It’s just a tiny bit easier to do it the time after that.  Self-care and giving yourself what you need is one of those things that only by doing it can you then empower yourself to do more of it.

Today’s cards are a reminder of this fact, and an encouragement to take that first step.  Give yourself what you need.  Once.  Just once.

Then do it again.

Words and Wisdom Prompt for January 2 : Intuition

Today’s card is the Three of Swords combined with the affirmation “Addicted to inner peace. Get your quick fix.”

When we are upset or disappointed, it can be difficult not to lean into punishing ourselves and treating ourselves badly.  I know that in my case, times when I’m not happy with myself or disappointed in myself or my performance with something often has a tendency to turn into self punishment.

Today’s cards are a reminder that during times of failure, it’s okay to treat yourself with kindness and understanding instead of self punishment and negative self talk.  You are allowed to say “It’s okay. We’ll do better next time” and leave it at that.  It’s okay, in fact, to dig your toes into the dirt, tilt your head back, and scream your frustration to the sky and clouds.  Whatever you need to step past it instead of wallow in those negative feelings and self punishments.

Listen to your body.  Listen to your intuition.  Listen… and allow yourself what you need.

It really is okay. You’ll do better next time.

Prompt for January 2 : World Introvert Day – What are you avoiding that could use some attention?

Photo-Jan-02-2025,-3-48-21-PMReading Summary: You are avoiding exploring your emotions (Page/Seeker of Cups Rx). In order to correct course you need to unburden your feelings and worries (Three of Swords Rx) with those that create for you a sense of emotional stability (King/Dreamer of Cups).

Take Away: When you share your burdens with others, it helps to lighten your load.  You’re all closed up right now from your time over the holiday rush, and need to loosen your grip on all those pains, disappointments, and worries.

Pull the blades free of your heart so that you can share what put them there in the first place with those that want to help.  They are there to listen, and in listening will help provide you with the greater sense of stability you need right now.

I slept in. Not only did I sleep in, but I really, really slept in.  I got over 12 hours of sleep, and it felt amazing getting to just relax in bed for a bit when I woke up with no one around to bug me.
