Today 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 spread is about the medicine within, and brought to you by Ethony‘s Tarot by the Moon series.

New Moon in Cancer Oracle Reading with the Golden Light Oracle

How can I bring more balance to my home?

True Self – Look at the things that you pressure yourself to do, and connect with the motivations behind these things. Are you driving yourself on using others expectations? Or your own?

Take time to reconnect your motivations to your own personal values, principles, and the goals that match who you truly are instead of what others want you to be.

What old family beliefs need to be healed?

Coronation – You will never earn the “Atta Boy” that you crave from members of your family. Stop looking to your mother to give you the validation you desire. Your family is never going to give you that, and there are other places and people in your life that will.

What old family patterns need examining?

Kindness – A lack of kindness within your own family does not mean that you cannot be kind to yourself. Treat yourself as you treat others, as you deserve that much at the very least.

How can I be a more impactful community member?

Relax – There’s nothing more you need to do at this time in this area. Instead, your relationship with the community could be improved if you relaxed a little more.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Baptism – Cleanse yourself of negativity and step into the light. You need to focus more on the good in life and the positive, allowing optimism to flourish. Step out of the dark and wash away it’s cloying touch.

New Moon in Gemini Tarot Reading with The Zenned Out Journey Tarot

Where do I need to communicate clearly?

Page of Pentacles – Concerning those things that you want to accomplish, and the fact that you are learning as you go and don’t know everything.

Sometimes manifesting your dreams takes a bit of faith while you learn as you go, especially when that journey is slow going. You can still manifest what you seek, just make sure people know that you’re taking your time getting there. They’re used to seeing you rush.

What truth needs to be shared?

Five of Swords atop Nine of Wands Rx – That you’re still fighting with the depression. You’ve come so far in climbing out of the pit, and yet the fact that you are still lingering in a sense of dissatisfaction is a sign that you’re not all the way out yet. Don’t keep this to yourself, because those who care about you need to know.

What drama do I need to step away from?

The Fool – Sometimes you just have to let people make their own mistakes. Not everyone can learn from others… some people just need to learn their lessons for themselves.

Where do I need to focus instead?

Ace of Wands –  Focus instead on your own passions and inspiration. There’s plenty to keep you focused elsewhere if you open up and let your curiosity lead the way.

How can I put my inspiration into action?

Ten of Cups – Seek out the things that you know make you happy. You need to help your sense of emotional satiation find its roots.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Queen of Cups – Sometimes your journey of emotional growth isn’t about pursuit, but rather about standing still and allowing the emotions to have the space to flow freely.

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 spread is about the medicine within, and brought to you by Ethony‘s Tarot by the Moon series.

New Moon & Solar Eclipse in Taurus Reading with the Curious Travels Tarot

What is blocking my prosperity?

Queen of Swords Rx – Negative inner narratives that beat you down and emasculate you emotionally and physically are blocking your prosperity not just in aspects of monetary wealth, but in the abundance possible in all areas of life. These are echoes from the past that pierced the skin and burrowed deep, and still require more healing.

Where am I playing too small?

Ace of Wands – You should be encouraging that inner spark of creativity and the joy it gives you to set it free. Stop smothering it.

What past financial situations do I need to forgive myself for?

Six of Pentacles – Taking help when it is offered is a bruise on the ego, but you need to allow yourself understanding in this area. Those that helped you when you needed it have forgotten all about it, so stop holding it over your own head.

What untapped well of wealth have I been ignoring?

Eight of Pentacles – You’ve spent a very long time honing your skills when it comes to your craft, specifically in the creation of beautiful jewelry. You have the ability to not just make money at this, but to truly enjoy the process as well.

Where can I be more fiscally responsible?

The Star Rx – Self-medicating through spending may make you feel good in the moment when your hope is depleted and you’re feeling down and disconnected, but it creates a bigger problem in the process.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

The High Priestess Rx – Your connection with your intuition is taking a hit lately while you were going through your depression. It’s time to start reconnecting.

🌑 New Moon in Aries – March 2022

/ Twist the Leaf / 1 Comment

On Monday 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 spread is about the medicine within, and brought to you by Ethony‘s Tarot by the Moon series.

Faery Temple Oracle

The card you’ve chosen to represent the change you want to bring about.

Rebirth – I want to rise out of the darkness of depression’s pit into the light and feel renewed again. It’s time to make the climb, and I’m trying, but it feels like it’s taking forever and that I’m not getting anywhere. I know that I am, in fact, getting there… I just long to feel that renewal of perspective, awareness, and joyous enjoyment that I know is coming. I wish I could just do it… experience it through will alone, but it is something that must unfurl at its own pace.

The most likely outcome if you make this change.

Shine – A return to self and boost of energy that will allow you to shine brightly for a time. Light and energy in free flow allowing your creative self to spark to shimmer and shine brightly.

What boundaries do I need to set during this change?

Revel – Make sure you are enjoying it, and not bogging yourself down or taking it for granted.

Just as you see the minute details of the forest and take pictures of them to share with the world while others tread the path and see nothing but “trees”, so too do you need to look at life and not allow negativity to influence you from missing out on the small treasures and other good stuff.

What do I need to let go of to move forward?

Flight – Fear. Don’t curl up and hide away, protecting yourself from those things that you fear. Instead, let go of your fear so that you can move forward beyond it and discover, in having done so, that what you feared was not that big of a deal after all.

What do I need to remember during this change?

Consequence – What you focus on is what manifests into reality. If you focus on the bad stuff, it’s the bad stuff that comes true. So make sure that you’re focusing on the good stuff. This way you are getting what you want out of the experience, instead of what you don’t want to come to pass manifesting as a consequence of where your focus lies.

Where do I need to be careful? Continue with caution around this.

Resilience – Don’t forget that at the moment you are the one that needs support. You are so open and willing to support others in so many different ways, but your energy is not boundless. Make sure you are saving some of that energy for yourself right now. You’ll survive the transition either way, but it’ll be a far more pleasant experience if you have more a bit more energy and give yourself a bit more slack for the time being.

What/who is my ally?

Pleasure atop Authenticity – Your allies at this time (and always, for that matter) are those that enjoy spending time with you and accept you exactly for who you are, quirks and flaws included. You may have a hard time believing this is true, but they are out there and they love you… just as you are.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Make a Wish – It’s time to get back into doing your daily devotional to connect with the energies and elements that you want to keep as a part of your practice. This has been neglected for too long. And, you should begin including Amalthea in this daily ritual.

New Moon in Pisces Reading with the Sufi Wisdom Oracle

How can I experiment with my creativity?

Union of Love – Involve others and enjoy working with them instead of by yourself. This is true of your interactive storytelling with Gideon, but just as true in you creative business and other hobbies. Nor is it about only connecting with the living, as there are spirits and guides that are also eager to step in and lend a hand.

What creative project is ready for my attention?

Trust Your Gut Feeling – Combined with the card above, we see an encouragement to spend some time exploring mediumship and experimenting with different techniques and methods to find what feels right for you personally.

What is the next step I need to take?

Open Mind – Don’t discount anything out of hand. Stay open to the process of experimentation over snap judgements. Remember that it’s not about what is right for others or works for them, instead you need to take what they have to offer and adapt it to what feels best for you.

How can I embrace my inner “Stevie Nicks”?

Free Will – Open yourself up to new experiences.

New Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Imagination – Don’t discount the value of imagination. Sometimes it feeds your creativity. Don’t use it as a scapegoat to discount unusual experiences.

New Moon in Aquarius Reading - The Citadel Deck

How can I detach from any lingering issues or energies from the past?

The Hunter – Remember that what is going to work for others is not necessarily going to work for you, and that’s okay.  You are unique, and that’s okay.  Give yourself permission to be different and don’t worry all that much (or at all) about the judgements of others, either from your past or in your present.

How can I be more of a spiritual rebel?

The Sailor – Make sure as you shift perspective you are seeking healthy choices moving forward. You seek ways to connect with Amalthea. Look for options that both satiate and inspire. Allow yourself to explore options and find what fits and feels right.

How can I be more impactful with my vision?

The Walker and The Champion – The project you are working on in your home is heavy with change.  Look forward and let your enthusiasm shine for the transition to come.  Make sure that you finish the job, though.  Don’t pause half way through and end up distracted, or it will all fall apart like a house of cards.

Where in my life can I have more fun?

The Poet and The Forgotten – Be yourself.  This is an odd response, as you are so very often yourself on so many levels, and yet these cards resoundingly speak of being yourself.  Set aside masks and fear of rejection or being hurt, and be yourself.  Those that are worth keeping in your social circle crave the true you and will not reject you for loosening up and letting your inner self free.

What can I do to support my visions and goals?

The Summoner – Own your mistakes and learn from them. Connect with others to garner their help, but remember that in doing so you also need to learn to better communicate and associate with them.  They aren’t tools, they’re people.  Treat them as such.  (Bake a raspberry cake for the neighbor to say thank you.)
