#DiscordTarotholicsOct2023 Challenge Thinning Veil Spread

The Thinning Veil Oracle Reading with the Lights In Dark Places Oracle

What Spirits have come to visit and walk with you while the veil is thin?

Lost & Wandering – Those spirits that have your best intentions at heart have come to walk with you while the veil is thin this year. They just want to see you back on solid footing, and stand by your side to assist you in getting there.

How are these spirits assisting in keeping you safe?

Each Day – They help you remember again and again to stay positive, both in your recovery and in your inner narratives. This reminder is something you need to hear over and over, or you slide back into old unhealthy habits.

What should you offer to these Spirits that are watching over you?

Fresh Start – Listen to them and work on that positive thinking. Don’t get down on yourself when you falter or backslide, but step forward and try again without punishment. You honor them by hearing what they have to say and truly listening to the encouragement they offer you.

What cycle from the past do your Ancestors hope that you will break?

The Good Stuff – Your hypercritical pessimistic inner narratives. These things you say to yourself are not you, but a spawn that was birthed through how you were treated when you were younger. They speak the language of an angry father, who spoke the language of an angry father before him. This is the cycle that needs breaking.

What do you know deep within your bones?

Listen to Your Heart – You are loved. Unconditionally. There are safe places for you.. safe harbors that are not places at all, but are the people that love you unconditionally and without reserve.

What do the Spirits and Ancestors need for you to learn?

Begin Again – Don’t give up, and don’t let those bad things that happened in your past turn you hard and ugly. They are not you. Each thing that doesn’t turn out the way you want it to is merely a lesson to teach you how to do better next time.

A message for you from the Spirits and Ancestors.

Don’t Live In Your Darkness – Keep striving for the light. Keep reaching for positivity and optimism.

Troubled Tarot, Vertigo Tarot, Tarot Malefic, and Halloween Affirmation Cards

October 25

Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was focused on the message in today’s cards, which is…

Queen of Swords – You have never been one for conformity and you do what suits yourself. Over the past few months, you’ve had to step away from that mindset, but now that you’re back at home,  it’s time to return to it once more.  Do things your way, and fuck’em if they don’t like it.  You don’t have to feel guilty for needing to rest and recover.  Fuck’em if they don’t like that, too.

October 26

Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was focused on the message in today’s cards, which is…

The Hierophant – Just because you know stuff doesn’t mean you always have to share. Sometimes, silence is golden and listening makes you far more interesting than speaking ever could. It doesn’t mean that you don’t know your stuff or don’t have things to share, but rather that you value other’s experiences and opinions, and want to hear what they have to teach you.

October 27

Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was focused on the message in today’s cards, which is…

Five of Wands – Opinions are like assholes… everyone has one.  Just because others may express that they do not value the work you do doesn’t mean that what you do is worthless or without merit. Don’t take other’s bad day personally or allow what they have to say to dampen your enthusiasm for doing what you love, for even when they lash out? It has nothing to do with you or your skills and abilities. It’s all about them.

🌕 Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse in Taurus – October 2023

/ Twist the Leaf / Leave a comment

Tomorrow is the full moon and lunar eclipse, and like all new moons and full moons, I did a spread aligned to the moon’s current themes as a part of my recognition of the moon’s cycle and influences upon us. Today’s spread is brought to you by Apollo Tarot.

Full Moon In Taurus Eclipse Reading with the Zammer Twin's Oracle

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.

Questions for October 27th, 28th, and 30th

Tarotholics Challenge Reading with the Cartes de Visite and Nellie's Deck

What do you need to focus on for self-care for the upcoming full moon?

Roots – “Hiding behind the moldy stones ~ While down below lie rotting bones.” – Work on shoring up your foundations. Covid stole a good deal of your stability. Don’t try jumping ahead too soon. Take time to rest and gain back your stability.

Samhain: As the last harvest approaches, what needs to be discarded from your life?

The Chariot – “Death waits patiently in the corner of life.” – Don’t worry about “seizing the reigns” right now. You won’t be able to take time for resting and regrouping for much longer. Savor it while you can before things get too hectic.

Harvest: What gifts of the season are ready for harvest in your life?

The Star – “Driving leisurely down the road to hell.” – You’re allowed to feel secure and hopeful for the holiday rush while not panicking this year because you have set yourself up to succeed.

Tarot Yokai, Silver Acorn Tarot, Red Raven Tarot, and Halloween Affirmation Cards

October 22

Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was focused on the message in today’s cards, which is…

Four of Swords (Aosagibi) – Listen to your body and what your body needs.  If you feel old and tired, it’s okay to rest. The old blue heron lingers, passing from life to afterlife, but bothers no one. So too can you bother no one. Don’t get worked up. Don’t worry or stress.  Don’t allow negative emotions or the push and shove of ambition to hurt your healing progress. Listen to your body, and rest when you need it.

Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was focused on the message in today’s cards, which is…

Queen of Cups – Instead of beating yourself up for being ill and needing rest, give yourself the love and encouragement that you need. Do the things that help nurture you back to help including eating when you need to eat, doing your breathing exercises to keep your lungs healthy, and making sure you do the little self-care things that help such as the salt water rinses, Nyquil before bed, etc. Be kind to yourself.

October 24

Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was focused on the message in today’s cards, which is…

Three of Cups and Three of Coins – It’s nobody’s fault that you feel like crap so make sure that you aren’t taking it out on others today. Instead, ask for help when you need it and just enjoy the fact that there’s someone there for you during the times you’re awake. You are no longer contagious, so lean into the help being offered.
