Full Moon in Leo Oracle Reading with the Fairy Tales Metaphoric Cards

What is your reason to roar?

The Watchful Wolf – Protecting what’s yours. Whether it’s people or spaces… pack or den.

What makes you crave the spotlight?

The High Tower – You like to be admired. (Who doesn’t?) It lifts you up.

How can you share that light?

The Sad Prince – Stay humble and allow your vulnerabilities to show.

How can you better integrate feedback or criticism?

The Warty Toad – Don’t allow criticism or constructive feedback (even the badly phrased kind) to dim your heart’s glow. Process it with your mind, not your emotions.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

The Slave’s Cave – Home doesn’t have to be a place of only toil and work. It can be cozy too.

Where do I need to stand strong?

Ace of Swords – In your communication with others. Speak up more about your needs, experiences, and ideas. Allow yourself to be heard.

How can I challenge myself in 2024?

The World atop The High Priestess – The sky is the limit and anything is possible this year in the area of your intuition’s development. Seek the completion of a journey instead of trying something new.

Where in my life requires more sensitivity?

The Hanged Man – Make sure that you are taking the time to see things from others perspectives instead of just your own. Also… be kinder to yourself. Remember that Gideon sees the Hanged Man as you… and you need sensitivity too.

What long-term goals or plans need my attention?

Six of Coins Rx – Reel it back on caring for others. You need to develop better balance in this area, and you cannot create that balance while over extending yourself in this area.

What is the next best practical step forward?

Knight of Cups atop Three of Coins – Be proactive about connecting with others and inviting them into your creative endeavors. You will get farther in the things you enjoy and want to accomplish if you let them join in instead of holding them at arms length.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Six of Cups Rx – Don’t spend too much time lallygagging in nostalgia right now.

What medicine does the Cancer Full Moon offer?

The Empress – The Cancer Full Moon is offering you an opportunity for self-care and to guide things in a healthy direction that can foster positive growth.

How can I drop into my heart space to hear my true-SELF?

King of Wands – Stay anchored in those things that inspire you. You can lead yourself and others forward into the future through inspiration just as easily as through obligation.

How can I heal wounds that are being illuminated for me, in particular ones connected to my kindred circle?

Two of Pentacles – Return to balance. Throughout the holiday season you have been overtaxed and laser focused on your business and cranking out orders. To heal from this time of neglect to both yourself and your kindred circle, you need to now focus on returning your life and your focus back into balance.

How can I hold space for self-love to thrive, so that I feel nurtured?

Three of Cups – Instead of focusing on responsibility and obligation, use this after-rush time to cut loose and have some fun with others.

In what aspect of my life do I need to be kinder to myself?

The Emperor – It’s not easy being the one that everyone looks to and depends on. It’s not easy being the one making hard choices for the benefit of others. It’s okay to need to take a break and let others deal with things themselves for a bit.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Ten of Pentacles – Savor this time that is stable and financially secure enough to allow you to spend time with others and they with you.

Clearing – What sensitive areas have I poked and prodded enough for now?

Horse Spirit – Stop allowing your negative inner narratives and criticisms to make you feel as if you’re stuck and not going anywhere. You have more power and autonomy than you realize. You’ve done enough weighing yourself down with the illusion of burden for now.

Transitional Pause – How has diving deep inspired me to look far and wide for my next journey?

Titmouse Spirit – When you allow yourself to be open to the world around you, you see more than you had been able to before.

New Seeds – What mind-expanding experiences are made possible by boldness?

Elk Spirit – Your boldness gives you the opportunity to take chances, and reach for more than you could possibly imagine without it there to bolster you.

Light in the Darkness – How does constantly shifting allow me to find my flow?

Arctic Fox Spirit – It doesn’t. In your case, to find your flow, you need moments of stillness and pause. This is one of the reasons that getting out in nature is so important for you.

Planetary Boon – What good fortune awaits discovery?

Black Fox Spirit – A greater sense of self acceptance awaits you if you’re willing to reach for it and be open to it.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Eagle Spirit – It’s only through, stepping back and looking at things from outside yourself that you are able to see where you need more balance, and how to further improve your life and your happiness. Objectivity can’t be seen from within.

What hurts do I need to release that still sting?

The Candles – You spent so much time this year under the thumb of necessity that it’s been a struggle for you to reconnect with that inner spark of creativity that usually shines so brightly within you. Keep trying. It’s still there, but the wood is wet and it will take a bit of effort to get the fire going.

What self-destructive behaviors do I need to recognize and stop?

Dandelion – Dehydration is not your friend. You need your kidneys strong and healthy, especially because of the medical procedures coming up and all the stress of the holiday rush as well. Make sure you are drinking enough water.

What aspect of my life is undergoing a potent transformation?

A Garden of Your Own – You have been advised by your therapist to begin a daily compliment journal. This practice has a great deal of potential to help you find a better sense of inner peace and stability. It’s a good idea, so get to it.

What will help me delve deeper into my heart space to explore what I need and don’t want in my life?

Greater Burdock – Fear and anger breed stagnancy. You need to flush these emotions out of your system. Let them go. Don’t spend your time resenting what has passed, nor in trepidation of the what ifs of what could or might happen but has yet to come to pass.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

The Sacred Space atop Ribwort Plantain – Get your ass out in nature and pay attention while you’re there. Reconnection to those you’ve been neglecting is needed in the place of wet and green.

What should I know about my financial life?

The Count – Just because it’s a long road doesn’t mean that you won’t get there. Perseverance is important. You’ve stood strong through a variety of difficulties and you’ll manage to get through this one too. Your tenacity is legendary, after all.

What should I know about my emotional life?

Ouroboros – Your emotions feed off of each other, and off what comes from the mind. If you want to have healthier and happier emotions, you need to make a conscious effort to give your emotions a better diet to eat off of.

How do my feelings relate to the material situation in my life?

Deliverance – You feel most emotionally secure when your finances are stable and material needs are met. When you don’t feel those needs are being met, you suddenly begin feeling like the entire world is falling apart and your most vulnerable parts are showing.

What is it that I do not see that could bring about change in my life?

The Mermaid – You’re going to be given the opportunity to move outside of your comfort zone. Don’t dismiss it out of hand, as it has the potential to introduce you to much beyond your ken.

How can I best prepare for possible changes in my life?

Redemption Rx – Face your truths instead of hiding from them because they are something that you don’t want to know, hear, or see. Turning a blind eye will only allow changes to sneak up on you instead of being prepared for them.

What negative aspects of myself need healing?

Purgation –  That part of yourself that feels the need to punish yourself all the time and create self-destructive situations is in need of some healing. Regardless of your intentions, these behaviors do not purge you of those parts of yourself that need to be let go.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Homunculus – It’s okay to have a little time to yourself right now, as long as you don’t let it get out of hand and become a problem.
