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 28th thru 30th

Tarotholics Challenge Tarot Reading with the Naked Heart Tarot

What needs to be purged and/or completed before the end of the year?

Justice – Discarded the “what if” thinking that can often get out of hand. Diligence towards consequences is important, but don’t let it get so out of hand that it holds you back from experiencing life.

What can you do to feel more fulfilled in your day-to-day life?

Nine of Pentacles – Make sure that you are taking time to appreciate your what you have gained and your accomplishments along the way. It’s not arrogance to be grateful for and enjoy the fruits of your labors, no matter what you were taught growing up.

What last minute preparations for the new year need your focus?

Knight of Cups – Set your feet on life’s path in the direction of your pleasure and emotional connectivity. What do you enjoy? What makes you happy? It’s time to focus your energy there. Don’t just wish for it or think about it, but actually begin moving in that direction.

Questions for December 21st thru 23rd

Tarotholics Challenge Oracle Reading with The Christmas Oracle

What is it that you’re burying that needs to be set free?

Snowflakes – It’s time to dig up and set free yourself and those unique qualities within you that make you special. You’ve closed down in a lot of areas throughout the holiday rush, including this one, and now that the rush is drawing to a close, it’s time to begin reacquainting yourself with what makes you unique and sharing those qualities with others again.

How can you invite more creative spark into your life?

Family Dinner – Invite others in instead of holding them at a distance. You try so hard to keep people from seeing when you are struggling and the true extent of your efforts, when if you would instead allowed them to see, they would happily help.

What do you need to be more grateful for?

Coal – The lessons learned through the mistakes you’ve made need to be reflected on and appreciated. It’s through giving them attention and being grateful for what you’ve learned along the way that you are able to avoid repeating the same mistakes all over again.

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.
