📆 Transitioning from June to July

The Spirit of Flowers Tarot and Essence Insights Oracle

Here and Now I Exist – Who you are now, in your entirety.

The World and Passiflora – You are transitioning into a new way of life where burdens you struggled with before are prioritized differently or set behind. New ones might take their place, but it will be different this time around as you step through the doorway into a new sense of maturity.

The Slough – What is to be left in the past as you move forward.

Two of Wands and Lavandula – Stop depending on grace and luck to fill in the gaps where you slack on planning things out. Better to have a plan that needs adjustment along the way than no plan at all.

What Lies Ahead – An ideal state or ideal self you are seeking at this time.

The Fool and Digiplexis ‘Flame’ – At this time, it’s important to put some focus on finding more of the fun within yourself, and the ability to shake off caution and more easily throw yourself into that fun with enthusiasm.

Limitations – Negative influences, opposition, or ill will.

Four of Wands and Borago officinalis – You are not stepping out of your comfort zone enough, and it is stunting your growth towards a more positive mindset. Remember that it’s through discomfort that we grow. Hiding where it’s safe and warm is not going to do it.

The Boon – Positive influences, higher guidance, or divine intervention.

Six of Cups and Linum usitatissimum – Lean into your connections and those people that are close to you. Family, including your chosen family, is extremely valuable right now, as is connecting through  your mutual past experiences.

The Wound – An unpleasant past experience or event that is ripe for some support and healing.

Queen of Wands and Prunella vulgaris – There have been times in the past where you have asked for needed help and your requests have been refused. Make sure that you aren’t allowing those past experiences to prevent you from getting the help that you need in the present.

Nostalgia – A positive past experience or event to acknowledge, reflect upon, and enjoy.

Ten of Cups and Matricaria discoidea – Keep in mind that you can discard a lot and still be happy and fulfilled. Happiness and contentment is not dependent on things, nor on people that are not healthy for you. Sometimes shedding dead weight makes the whole world lighter and brighter.

A Warning – Something coming that can be prevented or overcome.

Ten of Pentacles and Salvia rosmarinus – Take care that you are not focusing so hard upon your goals that you miss all the good stuff and happy memories that can be made right now in the present.

Empowerment – A future opportunity to work toward.

The Sun and Rosa chinensis minima ‘Alex’ – Success is often accomplished in small measures and small steps. Don’t focus on the big picture, but instead break your goals down into smaller bite sized steps and you will find a greater return on your investment.

Message from the Spirit World – Right now your sense of security, happiness, and success depends on leaning into spending time with friends and family. Keep yourself on steady footing with long-time friends and those you trust.

Message from the Mind’s World – You are heading into a moment of transformation, and need to make sure that instead of focusing on the discomfort of change that you instead lean into infusing this time with fun, adventure, and enthusiasm. Make a conscious choice to be uplifting and see things from that adventurous perspective.

Message from the Physical World – Sometimes your very best healing is done from the comfort of home. Doing a bit of house cleaning can go a long way to finding comfortable contentment at home that’s been a bit lacking of late.

Inner Child Hug Tarot Reading

Inner-Child Hug Tarot Reading with the White Sage Tarot and Spirit of Cats Oracle

What elements of my past are resurfacing now?

Five of Cups and Listening – They never wanted to hear what you had to say or what you wanted in life. In their treatment was a systematic lack of acceptance that you have a habit of continuing to inflict upon yourself.

What can I do right now to soothe my Inner-child?

Knight of Swords and Gift Giving – Be impulsive now and then in letting your inner child have the things that spark it’s interest. It’s okay to buy yourself a stuffed animal or cute toy/trinket now and then.

Who/what is an ally for me right now?

Page of Swords and Courage – Those that have the courage and desire to speak their minds instead of begin cowed by peer pressure and/or society.

What positive mantra/affirmation is good for me?

Six of Wands Rx and Endings – Be yourself, and fuck’em if they don’t like it.

What further healing must I do?

Wheel of Fortune and Storytelling – Work on the mental catastrophizing and pessimistic expectations that habitually stir up with each unexpected shift and change in life.

What closure can I seek?

Judgement Rx and Manifesting – Remember that you manifest into reality through your thoughts. Thus, when you are a judgmental ass, it pollutes the positive results you are working towards.

Burn It All Down Tarot Reading

Burn it All Down Tarot Reading with the Bix Tarot

What would be helpful to burn down in my life?

Ace of Cups and Six of Swords – Your tendency to try and run away from your emotions. Especially the new ones that you don’t understand. It would be helpful to bring that tendency into check instead of letting it dictate your behavior out of habit or fear.

How can that destruction move me forward?

Eight of Wands Rx and Two of Wands – Allowing yourself to stay in the moment of those new emotions instead of running from them can create a less chaotic push and shove in your life over all, resulting in more steady footing for the journey yet to come.

In what area will I then need to rebuild?

Six of Coins and Queen of Wands – Fostering a new passion for generosity towards yourself and others can allow you the room you need to grow and understand without the pressure to always be on top of everything.

Spring Awakening Lenormand Reading

Spring Awakening Lenormand Reading with the Sparkly Lenormand

What part of your life is ready for a fresh start?

Ring and Birds – Seek out those things in your life that feel unstable. A “Fresh Start” does not mean discarding, but rather breathing fresh air into something gone old and tired.  Projects gone stagnant.  Look for those things that are feeling flighty, chaotic, without an anchor.  This spring is a time to bring some stability to those areas.

What needs to be nurtured to bring that a new beginning to fruition?

Key and Coffin – Connect with your grief over the ideas and projects that haven’t worked out, and give yourself permission to grieve them and then let them go. It’s okay to write them off as a loss, just make sure you deal with how you feel about it as you do so.

What can come from tending to this potential?

Lily and Scythe – Results come from sticking to the straight and narrow on this.  You can have that fresh start, and find a great deal of enjoyment and pleasure in it, but only if you put in the work to make it what you want it to be.  That means allowing yourself to feel your feelings, and dealing with letting go so that the way is clear for that fresh start to develop and begin.
