Daily Mental Health Prompt: Seek a positive message to carry with you throughout the day and offer perspective.

Today’s draw is the Three of Pentacles (Stone), which is traditionally a representation of teamwork, collaboration, working together, and themes to do with bringing in help and/or outside expertise in order to get something done.

The Three of Pentacles has then been combined with one of the Cats Against Anxiety cards, which says, “It’s all going to work out fine.”

Remember that you have resources beyond your own capabilities. Bring others in as a support system to help you, and not only will you get things done that felt impossible, but it won’t take as much out of you as if you tried to do it all on your own.

The message in today’s cards is a reminder that you are not alone in your endeavors, unless you force yourself to be. There are others around you willing an eager to help. You just have to ask.

What does peace feel like to me?

Shadow and Abundance – Enough abundance to help cast a light on my worries and fears, and allow me to see them as they really are.

It’s just as easy to be freaking out about scarcity issues when everything is fine as it is when everything’s falling apart.  Therefore, this isn’t actually about finding oneself in a particular situation that creates peace, but rather a feeling that everything is in-hand and abundant so that fears ebb and worries ease.

What wisdom from recent struggles can I share with others?

Attraction and Dream (both Rx) – Just because you like something or want something, doesn’t mean it’s for you. It can be hard to let go of the things that you think that you want, especially when those wants are disguising themselves as needs.

The truth of the matter is, though, that no matter how much you like something (or someone, for that matter) or want it in your life, sometimes it’s just not meant to be. Instead of continuing to struggle and hold on tight… let go and root yourself in the reality that perhaps what’s meant for you is being hidden by your stubborn insistence on holding on to what’s not meant to be yours.

#DiscordTarotholicsDec2025 Challenge
Prompt for December 26th : What self-care is needed now to help you recover from the holiday season?

Reading Summary: Convince (Strength/Barbarian) others to help support you and create stability for you (Four of Pentacles/Stone) when things feel like they are going sideways (The Tower on its Side).

Take Away: As your card of the day for today previously mentioned, you are not alone. You have others to support you through times when things feel unbalanced or like everything is falling apart.

Don’t allow yourself to take everything on your own shoulders when others can help you find your footing. Now isn’t the time to be stubborn, as the help others can provide will keep everything from toppling into an even bigger mess than things already are.

I took a nap in the back of the car both on the way to our destination today, as well as on the way back from visiting.
