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 – Judgement – Don’t lose sight of the fact that this journey through the holiday rush may be short, but we’re looking at a longer picture as a whole.
Air – Six of Swords atop Two of Cups – This week is the transition out of the holiday rush into the lull that comes after. Make sure that you are leaning into those closest to you that you care about to help you through the change, and it will help you keep your head on straight.
Water – Page of Pentacles – Do what you can to make sure that the slow down at the end of the week doesn’t mess with your emotions. Remember that slow progress is still progress, and look to the Two of Cups above for advice on how to handle the disruption this shift in gears may cause.
Fire – Five of Pentacles Rx – Don’t panic and remember you are not destitute. When income slows down, scarcity issues, become a problem. Be aware of this, and work to mitigate your anxiety in this area.
Waning – Offerings – As the week goes on there will be less going out. Don’t strive to keep pushing out more than you’re able… Instead, take this time to rest and find your balance.
Waxing – Remembering – Towards the end of the week he will be visiting with family and then going to stay with Miss B for a few days. There are people lost in this household that will be remembered and mourned while you are there. Be sure to partake in these memories, as well as support others during this time.
Take Away – These cards are announcing the end of the holiday rush, and then transition that comes with that end. Things are going to slow down drastically over the next few days and by the end of the week it will be time to take some time off to spend with family and loved ones. Make sure that you are making efforts to cherish this time, instead of distracted and struggling under the shift of pace.

Today’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.
