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?
Earth – Three of Pentacles – Help is good. You need help with getting your work done and all the last minute preparations taken care of for the upcoming holiday rush. Don’t avoid asking for that help. Just do it. Those that you ask are happy to lend their skills and abilities to your goals if you give them the chance to do so.
Air – Queen of Wands – Use your creative spark to inspire others. If you present something as a chore, it will be seen as a chore to them. If you present it as fun, it will become something fun and enjoyable for them to help you with.
Water – Knight of Cups – Pounce forward into those things that make you happy this week. You need a bit of joy and now is a good time to work on instilling a bit extra into your life. Try allowing your emotions to have the reigns for a bit and follow the whims of what you want and what you like instead of restraining yourself so much.
Fire – Six of Cups – This is yet another reminder to look back at the past for inspiration on moving forward and lifting you out of the ashes of the present situation. This message has come through a few times of late, and is a reminder that you have skills developed in the past that can be carried forward to help you in what’s going on in the present.
Waning – Key and Fish – You need to step away from your current perspective concerning how you define success. Stop looking for the same markers of success that you’ve always looked for, and instead seek to redefine success into something that is more -you- and less what everyone else has expected from you.
Waxing – Dog, Ring, Snake – Be careful who you trust this week. Not everyone is as loyal and dependable as they appear.
Take Away – As with a number of the readings done over the past week, these cards are a reminder to ask for help, as well as not panic in the face of your jewelry business being slower than normal this year. Pivot and adapt, and take others with you as you do. Redefine success, and set your priorities to those new values.
Watch closely for the wolf posing in sheep’s clothing. They are closer than you realize.
