New Moon in Scorpio Tarot Reading with the Unofficial Shel Silverstein Tarot

What am I ready to welcome into my life right now?

Four of Coins atop Eight of Swords – You aren’t feeling particularly ready or welcoming to anything right now. Honestly? You just want to stick your head in the sand and pretend everything is at status quo.

What no longer feels aligned with who l am becoming?

Ace of Wands – You’re feeling particularly uninspired recently, and as a result are worried that that inner spark of creativity within you is sputtering out. You don’t want this misalignment to create a situation where you end up diverted off your chosen path.

What habits or beliefs am I ready to shift or release?

Five of Cups – As you recover from your recent depressive episode, you are trying to shed the dark inner narratives and pessimism that have managed to continue to linger on.

Where do I feel called to begin again?

The Star – You feel the need to connect more strongly with your positivity work, and use it to make the rungs on the ladder less slippery as you climb out of depression’s pit.

What does my soul truly desire in this next cycle?

Seven of Wands – Your soul craves the freedom to stop worrying over how your decisions and actions affect others, believing that you will then be able to be even more authentically yourself.

How can I stay open to possibility and expansion?

Ace of Swords – Communicate your needs. It’s easier to be open to growth and change when your needs are clearly communicated and heard.

Where am I being asked to trust more deeply?

Ace of Coins Rx – It’s okay to pass new opportunities by now and then. Trust in what you already have begun and are working with. No new opportunities are needed for you to have all that you need and live a happy life.

How can I be more intentional with my time, energy, and attention?

King of Cups – Stop giving yourself such a hard time about your mistakes, and be supportive instead.

What would it look like to honor the whispers of my intuition right now?

Queen of Cups – “What he said,” as the Queen glances to the King beside her.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Eight of Wands – Now is the time for movement and action. No dawdling. Success lies in your ability to catch and ride the wave.

New Moon Intention Setting Tarot Reading with the Tarot of a Forest Witch - The Hermit, Strength, The Emperor, The Tower

Intention for this lunar cycle

The Hermit Rx – This lunar cycle is in need of a conscious effort to indulge in less alone time and connect more with others. Retreating is easy, but it’s not what you need right now.  Instead, set your sights on making sure you are connecting with others in meaningful ways and allowing them lend you support and lift you up.

Where this might be difficult

Strength – You don’t feel particularly convincing right now. Because of this, you anticipate a struggle to get others to fall in line with your goals, even though this has not been the case in the past.

How I navigate any obstacles

The Emperor – Take control and lead.  It’s not about convincing or cajoling, but about communicating clearly what is needed and appreciating those that help you to reach your goals by being a gracious leader.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

The Tower Rx – Your time of trials and tribulations is not over yet, but it’s getting there because you are being more realistic about how you view what’s going on and what can be done in the present moment.

Scorpio New Moon Oracle Reading with the Secret Oracle of the Green Witch

What hurts do I need to release that still sting?

The Candles – You spent so much time this year under the thumb of necessity that it’s been a struggle for you to reconnect with that inner spark of creativity that usually shines so brightly within you. Keep trying. It’s still there, but the wood is wet and it will take a bit of effort to get the fire going.

What self-destructive behaviors do I need to recognize and stop?

Dandelion – Dehydration is not your friend. You need your kidneys strong and healthy, especially because of the medical procedures coming up and all the stress of the holiday rush as well. Make sure you are drinking enough water.

What aspect of my life is undergoing a potent transformation?

A Garden of Your Own – You have been advised by your therapist to begin a daily compliment journal. This practice has a great deal of potential to help you find a better sense of inner peace and stability. It’s a good idea, so get to it.

What will help me delve deeper into my heart space to explore what I need and don’t want in my life?

Greater Burdock – Fear and anger breed stagnancy. You need to flush these emotions out of your system. Let them go. Don’t spend your time resenting what has passed, nor in trepidation of the what ifs of what could or might happen but has yet to come to pass.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

The Sacred Space atop Ribwort Plantain – Get your ass out in nature and pay attention while you’re there. Reconnection to those you’ve been neglecting is needed in the place of wet and green.

What have I been avoiding that I need to face?

Ace of Pentacles – It’s time to turn over a new leaf with your financial responsibilities. There’s things you need to prepare for and now is the time to start.

What secrets need to come into the light?

Ace of Swords – Take time to examine what secrets you are holding that, once aired, could provide you with a greater sense of clarity and direction. It’s time for those secrets to be openly shared.

What conversation needs to be had?

King of Cups – This isn’t a specific conversation, but rather that you need to seek out emotional support through conversation with Gideon and others that can provide you a sense of security.

Where do I need to take decisive action that I’ve been putting off?

Justice – It’s all cause and effect here. If you want to succeed, you have to put in the work in order to do so. Avoidance will have unpleasant consequences.

What shadow aspect requires integration?

Four of Swords – Stop judging yourself so harshly for needing rest and recuperation.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

King of Swords – “Watch your tongue.” Take care that your words inspire others instead of cutting them down.
