Aquarius Full Moon Tarot Reading with the Word Cloud Tarot HappyToast Deck

What is awakening in my life at this time?

Nine of Pentacles – Gratitude and a greater appreciation for your accomplishments. A greater awareness of how far you’ve come and sense of enjoyment for all that you’ve earned.

What is something I need to sit with to explore?

Nine of Swords – Your fears and anxieties. You’ve been triggered a few times of late, and instead of pushing those things away it would be better to sit with and explore them.

How can I be vulnerable with others to improve relationships?

Seven of Wands Rx – You need to work on being less defensive.

What type of accelerated growth will I experience over the next few months?

King of Wands – Don’t pass up the opportunity to connect to your passions and to use them to connect with others.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

The Tower Rx – Don’t inflate setbacks into end-of-the-world scenarios. Catastrophizing evens will only make it harder to move forward, and get you stuck in an anxiety loop.

New Moon in Cancer Tarot Reading with the Healing Waves Tarot

How can I best nurture the feminine and masculine energies that make me who I am?

Feminine – Four of Earth – When you foster a stronger sense of stability, it allows these more feminine energies within you a chance to surface and breathe.

Masculine – The Letter atop Nine of Air Rx – Don’t allow rocky seas and unexpected surprises to send you down into a downward spiral of negative inner talk and anxiety. Doing so diminishes the masculine energy within you.

How can I best support my family and those dear to me?

Five of Water Rx – Stay positive, and make sure that you are pushing a positive perspective on them as well, so that they too are unable to completely wallow in a pessimistic viewpoint.

Where in my life should I apply love unconditionally?

Page of Water – Everywhere. Be open to sharing your love with everyone and everything. You are in a learning phase when it comes to your emotional intelligence and your own emotions, and you cannot learn if you are closing yourself off.

What unresolved matters from the past need to resurface?

Seven of Fire – Take a look at the things that have made you feel defensive lately. Bring them back up and into the light. Look at them again, and work through them instead of pushing them aside.

What areas of my life do I need to go with the flow?

Three of Water – Don’t forget that getting together with friends and having a good time is a good thing, and good for you and your emotional well-being. You can’t be staid and steady all of the time. Sometimes cutting loose with others is needed.

How can I improve my emotional intelligence?

Eight of Air – Keep in mind that you cannot see everything others are going through and experiencing in life. You don’t know what troubles and trials are causing them to act the way they are. Foster understanding through the fact that you can’t see everything and know everything all of the time.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Nine of Earth – It’s important to recognize all that you have accomplished and encourage a mentality of gratitude and a perspective that allows you to see clearly all you have done, and all you have garnered as a result of your hard work. Don’t allow negativity to overshadow these positive perspectives.

What groundwork do I need to lay for my vision to flourish and succeed?

Knight of Wands – Reconnect with your enthusiasm and allow yourself to get carried away now and then. Immersive creativity is where you truly shine.

What actions do I need to take in order to feel confident about my short-term and long-term goals?

Two of Cups atop Two of Coins – Work at seeking out help from those closest to you to help balance your responsibilities and expectations. Reaching out to them is not a burden on them, and a boon to you.

What boundaries do I need to assert, so that I can restore my personal power and accomplish what I initially set out to do?

Ace of Wands Rx – Remember that you can’t do everything. Just like anything else in life, you have to pick and choose what passions you decide to explore.

What recent success do I need to recognize that I’m oblivious to?

Four of Swords – You are doing better at carving out time to rest. It may not feel like it, but you are.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Ten of Pentacles – Look at how far you have come and who you have brought along with you. You are so fortunate, not just in the security and stability you’ve created, but also in those people you have surrounded yourself with.

Tomorrow is the new moon, 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 New Moon in Gemini spread is brought to you by lightningwildflower.

New Moon in Gemini Tarot Reading with the Sleepwalker's Tarot

What new idea or perspective do I need to explore?

Seven of Coins – Your hard work is paying off, but not in the ways that you have expected it to. Take a look around and pay attention to what you are really reaping from what you’ve sown. It’s all good stuff, just not what you were anticipating.

How can I improve my communication and self-talk?

Ace of Cups – Connect with your emotions instead of disregarding them. This is a new path for you that you’ve been working on, but you’re straying off course a bit of late. It’s time to re-center yourself (the bird), and make sure that you are not setting emotions aside, but actually dealing with them and communicating them with others when needed (two hands).

What decision do I need to focus on during this new moon?

The Hanged Man – Remember that staying open minded is extremely important, and often has to be a conscious act. It’s not always pleasant, and sometimes it’ll hurt (bruises and bleeding in image), but that doesn’t mean being open to other perspectives is not important or necessary. That pain is part of the growth process, so don’t let it close you off.

How can I better integrate different aspects of myself?

Ten of Cups – Work on connecting more strongly with those things that make you happy. Life isn’t always about responsibility and obligation. Sometimes it’s about doing the things that make you feel good and sharing them with others.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Ace of Swords – The other cards in this reading indicate that you may be tempted to shut down and close yourself off from others, either due to disappointment or pain. Work at making sure that you stay open and communicate how you’re feeling. Own your emotions and express them to others clearly so that they can be processed and dealt with.
