Solar Eclipse Tarot Reading

Solar Eclipse Spread with the Oracle of Light & Shadow

What is blocked and in the dark.

Snow Angel – You are missing the obvious. Make sure that you are tuning in to your intuition and what your spirit guides have to say instead of trying to tune out. Yes, this time of year can be overwhelming, but it’s important to continue to listen.

Death and the Maiden – You will be given the opportunity to see where you are being deceived and used by others. Pay attention to those around you and you’ll be able to see them coming instead of allowing them to sneak up on you and take you by surprise.

What I must do to achieve that future.

Faceless Ghosts and the Haunted Girl – Again.. listen to your guides. Don’t block them out or ignore them. Yes, this time of year can be overwhelming, but it’s important to continue to listen.

The biggest influence the Eclipse will have on the spirit.

Angel of Time – The eclipse will offer you a shift into a time of energy. Make sure you are not using this energy to overwhelm yourself with too many tasks and responsibilities. Instead, spread it out and use it wisely.

The best way to prepare the spirit for change.

Ghosts of the Pumpkin Patch – Practice gratitude for all you’ve done, accomplished, and have in your life. This effort to appreciate these things can help you through darker moments.

Trick or Treat Lenormand Reading

Trick or Treat Lenormand Reading with the Haunted Wonderland Lenormand

The Costume: What persona have I adopted? Is it serving me?

Birds and Stork – Displaying the ability and tendency to act, react, and adapt quickly, especially in response to instinct or intuition, and sometimes making this appear effortless to onlookers. Although this serves you well, it does not allow for depth.

The Darkness: What am I unable to see or recognize?

Dog and Child – At this time in your journey, you are unable to see and/or confront the child within you that is lost and aches for the freedom to trust freely, and unconditional love and support from others.

The Moon: What will illuminate my journey forward?

Fox and Whip – Make sure you are not being too clever for your own good.  Sometimes the simple approach is the best, and allows for success to flourish where a more clever strategy could backfire.

The Outcome: Will I receive a trick or a treat on this path?

Heart and Tower – Trick.  Make sure that you are not closing yourself away from others out of a fear of feeling and/or being vulnerable. You are not an island, so make sure you are not treating yourself as such.

Clearing Your Space Tarot Reading

Clearing Your Space Reading with the Embroidered Graveyard Oracle

What do I need to know before using this space?

Reign Breaker – There is a need to seize control of this space, to flow your energy through it and allow it to see your strength.  Use this strength to protect what is important to you without restraint, for there is no need to be shy here.  Be bold. Be impetuous.  Demand what you want rather than allowing the energies here to dictate how it is used.

Vibration of the energy that is leaving this space.

Our Song – The echoes of those that have lived and died on this land seek to depart as new life arrives.  They do not wish to leave in vain, though, but wish you to hear what they have to say before they move on.

Type of energy I should channel to clear.

Celebrate Uniqueness – Every home is unique, as they are a place where one’s self expression finds a voice, and we find comfort in surrounding ourselves in those things we love and enjoy.  In clearing this space of those energies of the past, use this individuality to create something new and uniquely yours.

The new vibration that is entering this space.

Mother – This is what you are… and it is why you are here.  To be close to those you love and connect with those that call you “mother”.  You nurture and seek to slide into this role more fully and with greater purpose at this time in your life, and in everything you do, your mindset and energy fills this “mother” role.

Energy I should bring into this space once its been cleared.

Absolute Protection – Change the locks and put poles in the window channels. Put up wards and protections to help keep you and your home safe. Seek out those things that don’t just make you feel safe, but actually provide an extra level of safety and protection.  Fire extinguishers.  Fire alarms. A security system and a doorbell with a camera.  Not everything is magical in nature, as practical matters are also paramount for well rounded protection.

Grounding Lenormand Reading with the Red Hand Lenormand

What will help me, in this moment, to express gratitude?

Lily and Book – If you begin to journal about your experiences, you will be able to look back on them later with clear eyes instead of a clouded memory. In doing so, you can more clearly see what you are grateful for, and be more prepared and able to express that gratitude openly to others.

What will help me, in this moment, to express moments of love in the present?

Animatxs and Goat – To express moments of love more clearly in the present, lean into being more impulsive. You spend too much time worrying about what other people think, and more specifically what your father would think. This worry causes you to hold back on expressing your love.

What will help me, in this moment, to express hope for the future?

Birds and Scythe – Bring your friends in close, and cut loose the naysayers that would get in the way with their doubts and negativity.

Coffee Cup Lenormand Reading with the Eastern Ink Lenormand

What do you have a good grip on?

Clover and Stars – You have a good handle on your success and progress, and you have your eye on the prize.  Between determination and a large dose of positive expectations, you have this well in hand.

What should you fill up on?

Dog and Ring – Make sure that those you hold near and dear know just how much you cherish them and just how important they are to you, and that you take the time to truly enjoy and “fill up on” their love as well.

What is sitting that needs to be poured out?

Whip and Cross – There are things from your past that continue to pollute your present.  Wounds that need poured out and released, let go of and set free.  It can be hard to get to that point, but each day can be a step closer to getting there.

Typewriter Lenormand Reading with the Brune Lenormand

What needs expressing?

Mice and Birds – You need to actually talk with those you love about your worries and concerns instead of keeping them to yourself and allowing them to eat you up inside.

How to be deliberate with my words?

Book and Letter – Speak from a place of knowledge, and make sure that you are confirming your sources before you use them.

When to make some noise?

Heart and Bouquet – Speak up when your heart tells you to, and when what you have to say can be a boon to others. Share with those you know will care about what you have to say.
