Uncertainty Oracle Reading with the Thanks I Hate It Oracle Deck

#DiscordTarotholicsJun2023 Challenge Prompt
Prompt for June 30th – Do a Spread of Your Choice
Spread: Tarotholics Challenge Spread 3 for June 16

“We often think of summer as a time of sunshine, fun, and socialization, but sometimes it can be hard to put yourself out there! When you are able to accept the uncertainty within yourself, it can help you in finding balance. With this in mind, this spread is about helping you recognize, acknowledge, and explore uncertainty during those times you feel discomforted, unbalanced, or confused.”

What does uncertainty feel like to you?

Dumpster Fire – Uncertainty has a tendency to make you feel like everything is falling apart and chaos has taken over. You have a hard time seeing that the situation is contained and not going to spread into every other aspect of you life.

How do times of uncertainty impact your physical body?

Growth – You often end up feeling sick or worn down during times of uncertainty, your body trying to convince you to go into hiding until things are sorted out and you can emerge with new knowledge and new skill.

How do times of uncertainty impact your physical reality?

Consult Your Vices – Others try to gather in close and close ranks around you to help you through. You need to stop holding them at arms length during these times and let them in to help and contribute.

What do you need to say to yourself to help you in acknowledging and alleviating your feelings of uncertainty?

Pothole – You need to work on remembering that you are skilled and capable. Don’t hide and let the problem grow, but instead take initiative to deal with whatever is making you feel uncertain and vulnerable. The sooner it’s dealt with, the better.

What do you need to accept about others to help you in acknowledging and alleviating your feelings of uncertainty?

Sticky Sweet – The love and support they offer you is more than just a nice thing, but is healing as well, if you allow yourself to accept.

Focus on your feelings of uncertainty. Pick a color that stands out the strongest to you in the card. How does this color (and how it’s used in the card) make you feel?

Pockets – The blue of the pocket would normally represent peace and calm, but in this instance the peace and calm it represents is a fallacy. Like sweeping one’s problems under a rug, this pocket of calming blue represents pretending everything is fine when it’s not. It is a reminder to bring issues out in the open and deal with them promptly, instead of stuffing them out of sight to get tangled up in other problems.

Oak Song Oracle Reading with the Oracle of the Seelie & Unseelie Fae

The Whole of Myself

Cat Sidhe – You are a homebody through and through and feel most at ease, contented, and blessed at home.

My relationship to my voice.

Fear Liath – You struggle to communicate with others. There is always a measure of uncertainty (and sometimes fear) involved that you will trip over some faux pas and offend them, like a bear trap hidden in the tall grass ready to make you bleed with one wrong step.

What’s holding me back from expressing myself?

Ogre – You don’t want to come off as an ass, unfair, incompetent, or egotistical. You essentially fear making a bad impression.

How can I practice using my voice?

Hobgoblin – When you lean into helping others, you really shine. Just keep it small.

What do I have to say?

Mallt-y-Nos – You need to say you’re sorry… most especially to yourself.

So You Don’t Want to Speak Up Lenormand Reading

So You Don't Want to Speak Up Lenormand Reading with Pentagram's Wooden Lenormand Set

Something keeping you silent.

Key and Tree – You are in a lot of physical pain right now, and instead of expressing that pain you are choosing to not listen to your body as closely as it wants.  You don’t want to bother others with your ailments and pain, and so you are hiding this from others and, to a certain extent, even to yourself. Your silence in this allows you to present a healthy and impervious front, when in truth you are anything but at the moment.

A truth you need to sit with.

Stork and Woman – Gideon brought this up before Christmas and it’s something you need to bring to the fore and sit with for a while instead of continuing to ignore.  You *can* shut her out of your life forever… but should you? It may be time to try to turn over a new leaf in this area.

A way to address your fears.

Bouquet and Moon – Don’t let them get out of hand. Your fears are only as big as you allow them to be.  Whether it’s about your physical condition or your mother, the more you stew and do not share, the bigger these fears and concerns will inflate until they are so exaggerated that they cause you to freeze in uncertainty.  Do not allow them to reach that point.

Questions for December 16th, 18th, 19th

Tarotholics Challenge Tarot Reading with the Christmas Tales Tarot

Where should you direct your focus to foster better understanding towards others?

King of Pentacles atop The Empress – Remember that in their minds you will always be the stable strength that nurtures them and creates for them a sense of security and stability as well as comfort. They do not see you in the same light you see yourself, but with eyes of admiration and love.

Where should you direct your focus this week to be more…

Kind – Queen of Wands – Encourage others to follow their dreams and listen to them when they share their excitement with you.  Foster their desire to share these ideas and dreams with you.

Patient – Queen of Cups – Look at others as people needing emotional support, rather than treacherous landmines on the field of life.

Grateful – Seven of Cups – It’s a choice. You can cast your attention to those things that you have to be grateful for, and in doing so you become more grateful… or you can ignore these things and it will close you off more and more from others and your own happiness.

What aspects of your life could benefit from some grounding and centering?

Knight of Pentacles – It’s time to return to slow progress. The holiday rush is a time of chaos and things being so busy that there’s no time for anything else… no time to even breathe.  Now that the holiday rush is at an end, it’s time to slow your roll.  You’ll still be moving forward, but at a more manageable pace.

Page of Cups – It’s time to return to your emotions and the development of your emotional intelligence. Over the past few weeks you have had to tamp down on your emotions and close them away. Now is the time to open those closed doors and begin sorting through things and returning to the journey of learning you’ve been working on for the past couple of years.

Tarotholics Challenge Lenormand Reading with the Yuletide Tales Lenormand

Where should you direct your focus this week to seek out more joy in your life?

Dog and Whip – You need to focus on not allowing your negative inner narrative to shame and criticize you so much, especially concerning your emotions. Keep those inner criticisms in check in order to lift your spirits and your self-confidence.

What do you need to focus on for self-care for this new moon?

Coffin and Ring – Let go of your expectations. Commit to riding out changes instead of trying to fight against them. You are too focused on how things have gone in the past and trying to hold on to that, instead of letting go.

How can you better foster your relationship with friends and loved ones?

Anchor and Letter – Make sure you are communicating with them how much you value their support. They aren’t aware of how much you appreciate them in your life, as well as their help in your business, if you don’t tell them so.
