Universal Tarot Reading 6-24

Today I pulled cards from the Universal Tarot.

Chariot, 10 of Swords & 5 of Pentacles.

I am not all that happy with this draw. Two negative cards. Ugh.

Chariot says to get my conscious and subconscious mind going in the same direction. It can also mean victory and moving forward swiftly.

10 of Swords augers in an ending of suffering through over thinking. I have been mired in negativity and it is crushing me. No wonder I am exhausted. So this says to think more positively and focus on the good things in my life.

5 of Pentacles is about poverty thinking and needing to focus on the good stuff available to me and not the bad. Hum. I am seeing a pattern here. It says that if I continue to think in a negative way, I will continue on this negative path. This card shows a window where sanctuary is available and that requires us (me) to actually choose to focus on those good things in life, on the people who can assist me and lift me up. It means extracting myself from the negative situations in order to allow myself  to focus on the good. 

The shadow card is the 2 of Swords. It says that I have two paths and can’t really see where I need to go so I have to step out in faith  and just make the best decision I can based on the facts and my own gut instincts/intuition.

Last night I pulled Knight of Pentacles, Knave (Page) of Pentacles and The Fool. The shadow card was the 6 of Wands, victory. That kind of says that I have all these resources but I am not using them well enough or utilizing them at all. The Fool says this needs to change. I have a new path, new chapter ahead of me in life. Sheesh. The tarot sure does like to put the hurt on sometimes, doesn’t it. Just like last week said…. I need to look at the things I don’t want to look at.

I think it’s all about adapting to each situation that is before me. Take, for example, this cute new faux-dori cover I just purchased and received in the mail yesterday. A regular insert or notebook that is casher size should fit in it but it doesn’t. That kind of annoyed me at first. So I had to make my own insert. I had printed out a letter sheet with a dot grid I got online an had to cut it down from 8.5 inches to 7.25 inches tall. And low and behold… I actually like that size better. Go figure.

I guess it is time to do a bit more adapting and going with the flow. I think it will help me out greatly i the coming weeks.

Lastly, I have been watching a lot of YouTube and I don’t know if you have noticed but you tend to watch exactly what is resonating with you at the time so it speaks to helping you move out of situations you currently find yourself in. All the videos I watched seemed to be on the same line as this reading. It says don’t focus on what is and how it is so screwed up and just triggering you or basically not to your liking. Focus instead on how you want it to be. Focus on people’s good points and not their faults. Because what you focus on you bring into your life. I need to do a lot more of that positive focusing. I need to change up my thinking to really get my life to soar. I hope you all do this with me.

I hope this reading helps you in some way as much as it has helped me. Blessings.

Reading for June 20 - 26

Reading from the Pagan Ways Tarot

8 of Wands 

I like to call this the woo woo woo card since it is filled with so much energy. New messages from afar are zoning in on you and it tends to represent just being busy as a bee. I feel like it also represents an awakening of sorts. It's kind of like you have been asleep in some way and are now waking up again by getting a jolt to your system. 

Four of Swords

Usually represents taking time to rest and reflect. You have had a traumatic time lately and you deserve a break with a bit of calm and peace brought into the mix 

The Underworld (The Devil)

Yikes, right? Usually represents addiction of some type and focusing on the wrong things. Here it says that it is making you look at your shadow side and what you don't want to look at or acknowledge, where you like to hide things from yourself. Time to focus on what you haven't been focusing on. 

8 of Pentacles

This is the craftsman card. It tells you that you are blissfully good at something. And it is time to show the world just how talented and masterful you are at what it is you do. 

The Moon

This is always a curious card with many interpretations. Here it says divine knowledge attained through madness, inspiration or intuition. Can mean a time of confusion

Ace of Pentacles

This represents a burst of amazing healing energy in the material world. Represents the macrocosm or matrix of the world (earth, air, fire, water, spirit). A great renewal is upon us. 

My Take...

It's time to get busy because the messages are clear. You are exhausted from too much overwhelm. You need to rest and renew and take time to deal with all those things you keep putting off. Because if you do you will be able to shine your light more brightly and show the world what you are really made of. This might mean it is decision time on all those things you have been confused about. A wave of new energy is coming in that will help you break free of this old matrix of thinking and bring new insights and renewal. 

Reading for the week of June 13-19

This reading comes from the Steampunk Tarot and while shuffling the top three cards jumped out. I am uncertain whether the 10 of Cups and the 8 of Swords needs to be switched so it makes me think that if you conquer your fears you will find happiness and connection. The five of wands in the middle of the two has a man holding up a pipe with a gear in it. Gears are made to work together. So this makes me think that the way we overcome our fears this week is to work with others instead of conflicting with them. This will bring you more happiness in your week. 

The three card spread 

Ten of Swords

Four of Cups

Knight of Wands with a clarifying card Four of Pentacles

You have risen to the top even through the struggles you have had to overcome. Light breaks in the distance showing that one chapter is over and a new more uplifting chapter is beginning in our lives. The four of cups asks us not to take past struggles so personally. it is not always about us when troubles come. It also asks you to pay attention to the signs and messages you are being given. If you stay in the victim mode you may miss something you truly need to know to move forward. 

The king of wands isn't sitting in his throne of power and to me this says that if you don't take that powerful position you may stay on the sidelines and miss all the excitement. The card that goes with it is the four of Pentacles. I like to call this the Law of Attraction card. It says that you need to be willing to release some things in your life that don't serve you in order to bring in the new things that will really rock your world in a positive way. 

In conclusion we need to work with others just the way two gears working together make things work better. And you are raising in vibration and a new day is dawning but pay attention to the messages you receive because they will help you to stand in you power and release the things that don't serve you. A new chapter in your life is unfolding and like a snake sheds its skin we need to shed those things in our lives that don't work in order to get our fresh start. 

Wisdom of the Oracle Reading

Do you ever feel like you want to get a little guidance yet you don't have access to oracle cards. Well, you should definitely check out Colette Baron-Reid's Website:

www.colettebaronreid.com/the-daily-oracle-cards-wisdom-pick/

This link will give you the opportunity to not only choose ask a question but choose each card in a three card reading.

The cards above are from the link I mentioned and they are from the Wisdom of the Oracle deck.

Clean It Up, Be Flexible (Reversed) and Fork In The Road

When you see the images on the cards or the words... what does it say to you? That is the key to oracle cards. One card could have an image that reminds you of some time in  your past and that is just the thing you need to focus on right now and it might remind someone else of something completely different. When you get a sense of the cards meaning something, go with that thought.

To me, the banners at the top of the Clean It Up card remind me of the Quiddich match in a Harry Potter book. And going with that thought, that might make the stag the patronis that Harry makes in the movie when he has mastered his magic a bit more. It is a powerful spell. So this card is powerful. If you do some cleaning in your world, which could be getting bills done, housework completed, clothes put away or just sorting out things to give away, you are making space for more good to come into your world.

The Flexible card reminds me of the Hanged Man card in the Tarot but here the head is closer to heaven and if you become more flexible about the things that come into your world and just go with the flow you will find your thoughts moving closer and closer to divine insights. That is so cool. Awesome, right?

And the Fork In The Road card shows two arrows pointing back the way you came but the monkey sitting atop the signs points to the one telling you to move forward. It is your choice now to take all you have learned and move forward toward your bliss and big dream or to stay where you are and remain stagnant. I choose my big dream. I have made a lot of big changes lately and probably hurt some feelings but I had to do what was right for me. I hope you all choose to do what is for your own highest good. And strangely enough when you do what is right for you, you will find others will discover their own path to joy as well.

I send you so much love and blessings on your journey.

Reading for week of June 5

This reading says ... Dang, girl (or guy) you are awesome so why do you see yourself as unworthy? This poverty consciousness is effecting more than connecting with your twin flame/soul mate/whatever the heck they call them now. It is effecting many areas of your life. Spirit says I wish you could see you like we do. You would not be so hard on yourself. You shine so bright. 

Because you see only your unworthiness you will miss the relationships that you need to be a part of that will help you move forward. if all you see is your unworthiness, all you will find is chaos and unhappiness. And all that will lead to stagnation in your life. You don't want that. Learn to see your greatness in little ways and watch for those positive relationships that will come in as a result and that will lead to the blessed change and transformation you have been waiting for. The scales will balance. Coventina says that it is time for a cleansing of body and mind. I would add to that emotions too.  So exercise in some way even if that only means walking around your living room. Have faith that this blessed change is possible. And remember something may need to fall apart first before it is reborn for the better. This restructuring will lead to a transformation in your spiritual acuity. You will be able to hear your guides and maybe commune with the unseen of this world like fairies and angels. This new transition will be amazing if you only allow it to occur.
