Guidance for October 20, 2024:
“Hocus Pocus, I’m all out of Focus”
What’s unclear? 7 of Cups
What should I be focusing on? 9 of Wands
Why and What action do you need to take?
7 of Swords/6 of Coins Reversed
The 7 of Cups speaks to what’s unclear- a variety of choices that can inspire but can often confuse & distract. There's a sense that some part of your life is disorganized & needs a reality check. You're grappling with how to transform your wishes into reality, moving beyond mere daydreams to concrete action. The abundance of choices has led to a struggle in materializing your dreams, partly due to a lack of clear vision. This 7 of Cups warns of the risk of illusory success and feeling overwhelmed, potentially leading you to walk away empty-handed. The core issue here seems to be a lack of focus and commitment. The 9 of Wands known as the Lord of Great Strength hints where we can find this focus. Associated with the Moon in Sagittarius, this card brings a spirit of change, hope, & expansion. It suggests that you have inner strength, but you need to recognize & harness it. There's potential for personal growth & broadened experiences. The 9 of Wands speaks to your resilience in the face of setbacks & your independent nature. However, it also cautions that this independence might be verging on isolation. The advice here is to avoid being overly defensive or closed off. Appearing aloof or standoffish with others may create distrust. In order to move forward, you'll need to take risks in opening up to form connections to materialize some of those dreams. The core challenge you're facing is represented by the 7 of Swords, the Lord of Unstable Effort. This card warns of potential self-sabotage through indecision & lack of commitment. You may be experiencing ambivalence that's leading to missed opportunities, and a non-committal attitude could be hindering your progress. There's a possibility that you don't fully trust your own judgment. Additionally, your desire for independence might be conflicting with your need for support. Remember, you can't do it alone, even if you want to. To address these challenges, the 6 of Coins reversed suggests examining how you're interacting with people around you & take advantage of opportunities being presented to you bringing your dreams into reality. It's time to actively participate in life, putting your ideas into practice. Allow yourself to be vulnerable and open to receiving help moving your projects forward.

A Trick- Something not to Trust Right Now: Knights of Birds
A Treat-Something to enjoy: Mistress of Terror
A message from beyond: Prince of Coins
A Trick- Something not to Trust Right Now: Knights of Birds
​
Like birds that swiftly change direction, someone around you may be flip-flopping their position or communication, seemingly on a whim. This person's motivation appears to be a craving for excitement, possibly at your expense. They might be actively seeking to get your blood pumping, to push you out of your comfort zone for the thrill of it. While their invitation to venture beyond your usual boundaries might seem appealing, it comes with increased danger. This individual or situation may be calling for you to be a "partner in crime," so to speak. However, their reckless pursuit of thrills shows little regard for whether their ideas are truly beneficial for you. The key here is to recognize that this person's changing stance and push for excitement may not have your best interests at heart. Stay grounded and trust your instincts if something feels off or too risky.
​
A Treat-Something to enjoy: Mistress of Terror
The Mistress of Terror represents a powerful protective force in your life. Despite her fierce countenance, this figure - possibly a female family member or a very close friend - is intensely protective of those in her inner circle. She's not afraid to confront issues head-on or take matters into her own hands to keep you safe and sound. If anyone had an Irish mammy you might understand the fierceness of this woman.
Picture, if you will, your 5’2” mother armed with a slipper in one hand and a wooden spoon in the other, chasing off neighborhood bullies barefoot on the pavement. This image captures the fierce, unwavering protection this figure offers. Her strength and dedication to your well-being are truly a treat to be cherished.
A message from beyond: Prince of Coins
Be thankful for the protective "lioness" in your life who helps keep you safe from those who might recklessly pull you into territories where even angels fear to tread. Recognize that their fierce protection comes from a place of deep love and concern for your well-being. Take note of and appreciate the courage of these female soulmates who protect their "herd" with unwavering dedication. They would fight tooth and claw to defend you and those they love. Allow their strength and bravery to inspire and influence you positively. The Prince of Coins also speaks to the reciprocal nature of giving and receiving. This balance suggests that while you're currently benefiting, from this protection (even beyond the grave), the circle of life continues. In time, you may be called upon to fiercely protect another in your circle in much the same way. Be prepared for this role reversal and embrace it when the time comes.
Guidance for October 6, 2024:
“Sleeping on Your Gold”
Shadow in the corner: Perchance to Dream
The past that haunts us: Opulence
RIP: How to banish those ghosts for good? Resilience
Abracadabra: Our magical quality that enhances our power -Maximus
Reanimation: Hex
In the darkest corner of your psyche lurks a shadow of denial and escape. Surrendering to a powerful urge of avoidance, using sleep or distractions, to evade confronting pain. The new moon phase of the card heralds the potential emergence of something new, but only if you can face and put to rest that which haunts you. The challenge lies in awakening from this reverie, for when you do, you may feel regret for the time spent in slumber. Perhaps what truly haunts you is not an external event, but rather how you've failed to take the lead in your own life. You may have been ignoring the unique gifts you possess - the gold within you that is meant to be shared with others. This denial of your true potential is the real shadow that needs to be confronted. The gold crown of Opulence symbolizes your exalted position, even if you haven't fully embraced it. Others look to you for guidance, seeking your light to illuminate their own paths. You've failed to recognize your own talents, skills, and the qualities that set you apart. Sleeping on the earthly accomplishments that could be gained by showcasing the most stellar parts of yourself. How can you lead when you hide your light under a bushel? The call now is for resilience - to not only burn away any past doubts in your abilities but to light a fire under yourself and bring your gold to the table. Remember, you don't have to do this alone. In fact, it's your dynamic ideas and charm that attract others like moths to a flame. By discussing your ideas with others, you can gain new insights that might better help you manage the challenge of bringing your gifts to the table. You may magically find support from someone in your corner. Consider the purpose of your gifts. They're meant to benefit both you and others. Set the table with your finest offerings - the best you have to serve. Don't underestimate your impact. All eyes will be on you, watching your commanding moves. Work with integrity, presenting quality to discourage critics. If criticism comes, practice non-reactivity. Be mindful of how you appear and watch for self-sabotage that could send you back into hiding. The time for slumber and denial is over. Awaken to your true potential, bring your unique gifts to light, and step into the role of the leader you were meant to be. The table is set, and the world is waiting for what only you can offer.
