Tarot Mirror Tarot Reading

Winter Waite Tarot 2018 Edition

Card that best represents me at this time.

Page of Pentacles – Slowing down, but still moving forward.  The holiday rush is easing up and the pace is slowing down, but you’re still on task and moving forward with your eye on the prize.

Why the card best represents me.

Queen of Pentacles – You want to continue to keep things flourishing where your financial security and stability in life are concerned.  You foster these goals through your work, and through staying invested, no matter the pace.

What I’m avoiding acknowledging right now.

Three of Swords – Although the holiday rush was busy, it wasn’t as big of a success as you were hoping it would be.  This is a disappointment, and instead of dealing with that disappointment, you’re pushing it off to the side and hoping it’ll disappear on its own.

What can I do to embrace who I am in this moment?

Judgement – Ease up on yourself and look at the long term goals instead of focusing on small disappointments that are inconsequential to the larger picture.  Stop nitpicking yourself and blaming the smaller return this year on your performance instead of on the fact that money is extremely tight right now for everyone.

Where life is leading me right now.

Temperance – Continue to slow down from the rush and work at making the transition to a more moderate pace a smooth one.

Wait For Me

Christmas Spirit Tarot - The StarToday’s draw is the Star card, which is traditionally a representation of hope, faith, and the connecting of spirituality to the various aspects of our lives.

Poor little cherub almost got left behind by Santa.  And yet look there… he’s turned and seen the little angel and paused on his way to the sleigh to let the cherub catch up.

Sometimes in life we can feel like we’re being left behind or left out, especially if we’re struggling to keep up with others that are able to move (or learn) at a much faster pace.

This card reminds us that it’s okay to speak up and call out… say “hey!  wait for me!”.  Don’t stay silent out of fear or embarrassment. Have faith in others to care enough to hear you, truly care, and want you there at their side.

Careful What You Wish For

Today’s meditation was skipped.

Yule OracleToday’s draw is the Snow card from the Yule Oracle, which speaks of themes to do with birth, emotion, and purity.

And… this card is a little too on the nose for today, and is a warning on what to expect and to be careful on my trip north.

It’s well below freezing (10 degF), the winds are wild and biting, and there’s two feet of snow in the places where the wind hasn’t created drifts as high as my waist.

A four hour drive took nearly six, and is most assuredly going to take just as long if not longer to make it back home again later today.

And when I look at this card?  All I can think is… no shit.

I changed my shipping dates back to shipping out Tuesday and Friday instead of every day this week.  There’s no way in hell I’m shipping out daily with the weather like this.

What I need to complete.

The Ring and The Bed – You need to make sure that you are focusing energy on your commitment to getting back on track with your self care after the holiday rush. That commitment and determination needs to be resurrected and placed at the top of your priority list.

Where I need to protect.

The Chimney and The Bear – Protect and uphold your boundaries with yourself and others. Now is not the time to be lackadaisical about your boundaries or unobservant of those that might try to cross them.

What joy is coming.

The Garden and The Key – Remember that time with family and friends does not need to be a trial. It’s all in your perspective. If you are determined to have a bad time… you will.

The Good and The Bad

Today’s meditation was skipped.

A Christmas TarotToday’s draw is the Hanged (The Hanged Man), which is traditionally a representation of a moment of pause and reflection, seeing things from a different perspective, surrendering and/or letting go in order to accept things as they are, and occasionally can indicate delays in one’s progress.

The imagery in today’s card brings to mind the phrase “stop to smell the roses”.   At this time  of year, there are no roses, but if we look beyond the literal?  There is a lot to stop and appreciate this time of year.  Beautiful decorations, cheerful music, a spirit of giving and generosity… all of these things are present if we are willing to acknowledge them.

Today’s card is a reminder to take a moment to see beyond the inconveniences and irritations, and appreciate the beauty this time of year offers to us all.

Making Customers Happy

Today’s meditation was skipped.

Christmas Storybook TarotToday’s draw is the Six of Candy Canes (Wands), which is traditionally a representation of public accolades, people pleasing, progress and/or success, and confidence built through public recognition.

Tomorrow begins an entire week based on public recognition and accolades for me.  It’s the only week of the entire year where I ship out every single day, and my orders are processed to ship out next day, no matter what those orders may be.

The Six of Candy Canes is a reminder to take pride in the fact that you can do this for people that are desperate for their orders to arrive before Christmas.  You get more than money out of this process.
