Bear – Introspection / Healing – How can a period of introspection help with healing the past year’s pain?
Seven of Pentacles – Sustainable growth takes time and goes through many different phases. One of those phases that encourages growth is time spent looking inward at the self. When we rush, we often try to skip this step, because it’s difficult and uncomfortable, but in taking our time to explore it instead, we come out the other side happier and healthier in the end.
Robin – Compassion / Patience – Where can I express more compassion and patience with others?
Ten of Pentacles – During family times your loved ones could use a bit less snap and snark, and a little more compassion and patience. The stress of the holiday rush is making you snipe more often when you would normally have more patience. An effort toward a bit more compassion and patience will allow everyone to come together comfortably instead of going off into their own corners.
Deer – Gentleness / Intuition – How can I use my intuition to encourage more gentleness and caring this holiday?
Strength – Lean into your interpersonal strengths and seek out the nudge of your intuition to help you learn what others need in order to soften their hard edges and allow them to relax.
Squirrel – Preparation / Resourcefulness – How can prep and resourcefulness help me through the holidays?
The Star – Preparation and your resourcefulness assist in keeping things running smoothly, which in turn then allows you to more easily lean into hope and positivity instead of worry and self-criticism.
Wren – Inspiration / Enthusiasm – Where can I find inspiration to help me be enthusiastic about the holidays this year?
Nine of Pentacles – Stay focused on your accomplishments and how far you have come rather than allowing more negative inner narratives to take control. It’s through acknowledging your accomplishments (no matter how difficult they are to see, and no matter how small or inconsequential they might seem) that you are more easily able to see and enjoy the positives in life and fun in the world around you during the holidays.
Boar – Stubborn Persistence – In what way can stubborn persistence help me through the rest of this year?
Knight of Swords – It will allow you to stay on target and adapt to the sometimes unorthodox methods needed in order to meet your goals. Thinking outside the box is important in order to hit your target.
Owl – Trust / Knowledge – How can the knowledge I’ve gained this year help me to trust myself better?
Wheel of Fortune – Remember that everything you’ve learned is carried with you throughout your life. These lessons don’t go away, but are carried forward with you. Like learning a foreign language, the more you use what you’ve learned, the more it will stick and become natural to you. Use these lessons you’ve gathered through life well and often in order to keep them fresh and easily awakened when you need them.
