Magic Planet Tarot, Living Thread Tarot, Raincoast Visions Tarot, and Thera-Pets Emotional Support Animal Cards

September 13

Five of Wands – There are always going to be conflicts in the process of working together with others. We all have separate opinions, methods, and techniques that we feel are better than the rest. Just make sure that you don’t allow others to bully you into feeling like you’re not doing enough. If they want more done than you’re ready to deal with? Tell them to do it themselves instead of butting heads with them about it.

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

The High Priestess – “Your speed doesn’t matter, forward is forward”, and sometimes? Your progress is being made out of your view and without you being aware of it.  Just because it feels like you’re going at a snail’s pace doesn’t mean things aren’t happening, only that things are happening that you’re not aware of at the time. Have patience, and allow things to develop at their own pace.  You’ll become aware of that which is hidden from you eventually when the time is right.

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

Ace of Cups – Don’t allow your emotions to run away with you and cause you to feel that things are worse of than they are or that you are worse off than you really are. Life has proven to you again and again that you are stronger than you believe yourself to be and will weather the storms that roll through just fine.  Adapt and be flexible instead of standing rigid against the wind.

Fantasy Garden Tarot, Second Nature Tarot, Tree Spirit Tarot, and Thera-Pets Emotional Support Animal Cards

September 10

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

Four of Swords – You are important. You matter.” There are a lot of people depending on you right now, and you need to make sure that you are doing what you can to take care of yourself and give yourself the rest and recuperation  you need.  Don’t ignore your need for rest or push yourself too hard.  It’s important to keep yourself well cared for and rested, or you will begin to fall apart… and then so will everything else.

The Hanged Man – Remember when your negative self talk is speaking that it’s a liar. It is a defense mechanism used to keep you beaten down so that you won’t climb so high as to crash into the ground when knocked down by others.  It is outmoded, and you need to make sure that you are using positivity and optimism to fight back against it instead of allowing that narrative to be your only view of yourself and the things that you do.

September 12

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

Temperance – “It’s going to be okay”, you just need to make sure to take things slow.  Don’t rush. You’re homesick and missing life before you had to step into this caretaker role.  Although this time and responsibility isn’t going to last forever, you can’t rush the return to normalcy. It has to move at its own pace, and you need to be patient with the process.

The #lucetseptembertarotchallenge Dionysian Mysteries Challenge
Questions for September 9th thru 12th – One With Nature

Dionysian Mysteries Challenge Lenormand Reading with the Emblemata Lenormand

Rapture – How can you open yourself to new experiences and insights?

Garden and Ring – Commit to opening yourself up to social interactions and spending time with others. Although what you feel like doing is retreating into alone time, you know that it’s only through interacting with others you can get the external influences you need.

Connection with Nature – How can you ground yourself and establish a deeper connection with nature?

Mountain and Fox – Be clever in dealing with the obstacles in your way so that they don’t overcome you and your efforts.  You may not be able to get into the woods and among the trees right now, but you can walk barefoot in the grass.

The Dionysian Feast – How can you bring more joy and playfulness into your life?

Cross and Lily – Take care not to see your time with your elders as a burden.  Have fun with it.  Yes, there’s a lot of responsibility involved, but there’s also a lot of joking and amusement.  Don’t lose sight of the fun that can be had by sinking too deep into the mentality of burden and obligation.

Liberation from Limitations – What fears or doubts are holding you back from being fully yourself?

Woman and Scythe – You fear that your softer and more open side will become a liability that gets you hurt or be seen as unappealing and leave you cut off and alone.

❤️ Self Care Saturday (On a Sunday)

/ Twist the Leaf / Leave a comment

These Saturday readings are (not usually) bearing in on any one thing or event in my life, as the question used is asking for a more general outlook. This is a self care exercise, and is not meant as a predictive reading… although that, too, happens on occasion.

The question is… What do I need to focus for self-care through the week ahead?

Self-Care Saturday Tarot Reading with the Atomic Age Tarot and Divine Nature Oracle

Earth – Page of Wands – Start small, but start all the same. Do the things your body needs and start doing them now. Make it something you’re invested in instead of a chore. For you, taking care of yourself is something you have to re-learn again and again each time you fall out of habit.

Air – Ace of Wands Rx – Don’t go starting any new projects this week. You have enough to do and don’t need the stress of putting more on your plate. Instead of working on new things, put your focus into cleaning up those things you have already started.

Water – The High Priestess – There is a lot of emotions going on in you right now that are beyond your ability to dig into and understand. Accept this, and instead of digging, let those secrets currents within you sit for now. Let them be a mystery for later.

Fire – The Magician – You have the tools to do what you need and accomplish what you put your mind to. Use them instead of making things harder for yourself than they have to be.

Waning – Own Your Power – You are not alone and you are stronger with the support of others. Instead of falling into the habit of doing everything yourself, make sure that you are welcoming in help from others.

Waxing – Stand for Justice – Lean into your need for fairness and balance this week.
