September 2022 Readings
Guidance for September 25, 2022: All the world’s a stage and us the players” Reading for the collective
All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and their entrances.
Situation: Perthro reversed
Archetype to embrace for success: Mediator
Archetype to follow for failure: Hermit
Learning lesson: Perception
The rune Perthro in reverse speaks of unexpected harmful events & unpleasant surprises. Whatever it offers, we want no part of as they will result in a degradation of mood & health. This rune also warns of our past coming back to haunt, so be aware that people may just end up disappointing you because their true motives are hidden & not what you are expecting. We are dealing in a time of psychological & emotional addictions, of fantasy & delusion. Things are not what they seem & each one of us is seeing the world through our unique and limited perspectives. We have to tread carefully in these insane times because we cannot know what’s “behind the curtain” or behind the masks that people wear ..but know many are involved with unhealthy behavior. The big learning lesson here is remembering the complex array of human feelings that lie under the masks we wear in daily life and how we are all playing with the Shadow & Light of this earthly existence. These masks influence how we are perceived by others & how we perceive them. The persona we put on to face the comedy & tragedy of life for if we didn’t, we’d be outcasts. However, the mask is meant to be private & many deny wearing one at all…it’s not meant to be visible for how else would you be able to hide your true intentions? Here we see the mask of the harlequin- an actor whose true feelings are masked in order to gain acceptance. To successfully navigate this time you’ll have to be able to read people & situations with patience & uncanny skill. It may be necessary to have one face for public view as to not give away how you truly feel in order to be diplomatic & helpful as in a role of a mediator. Put your best foot forward and lead with your best effort. Try to act as an ideal version of oneself not in an attempt to be false or manipulative but instead with the very best of intentions. It would be better to try and smooth relations between conflicting factions by acting as a bridge -bringing people together towards a common goal, peacefully. Being of service to act as an intermediary-someone willing to thoughtfully consider two sides of the story while seeking out the commonality of what unites us. That said, those that refuse to get involved out of fear or negative judgements of a differing side will be playing right into those fantasies & illusions. If you proceed thinking “it’s their problem not mine”- you’ll just be contributing to the frightening & unfamiliar situation we have going on here. Retreating into your bubble and refusing to help those clearly in need by not stepping in or up is a sure-fire ticket to failure for the Collective. Discernment, caution and the purest intentions of a willingness to be of genuine help will be needed for the days ahead. Strange evil times indeed.
Guidance for September 18, 2022: “The Shire is burning…so not to be like f*ck y’all, but f*ck y’all”
Theme: Destruction
What my heart is telling me: Chameleon
What my head is telling me :Manatee (Serenity card)
What my gut is telling me: Falcon
When the outside world is facing collapse of all that it values, the Destruction card asks you to be aware of the destructive instincts in yourself & in some of the people around you. There’s madness at the gates - a wanton cruelty, hatred or destruction within people’s hearts. Pay heed to your alarm bells if the hoard tries to come to your doorstep. There’s a real threat of turmoil & chaos as well as the rage produced as a result of life shattering disasters, breakdowns, and financial or relationship collapses. In a way, you can’t blame them. It’s traumatic to witness all that you’ve spent years creating come down in a burning, useless heap. However, everything that falls can be built again but if you can prevent the fire from reaching your house, all the better. Here’s how to successful navigate the tempest outside. Your heart is telling you to stand down & allow events unfold without your direct intervention & guidance. Retract your energy field to stay as invisible as possible. Continue going with the flow while watching for “on-coming traffic” taking a calm, gentle non-violent approach. Focus on your ability to show or hide emotions depending on the situation or people involved. While is generally good to be open with your feels, this is about harmony & your survival so it’s better to camouflage your true feelings. Your head is telling you; this is not a fight you want or need to engage in. Accepting things as they are is the best route to take at this time. Recite the Serenity Prayer & take it to heart. Let go of righteousness & the ego’s need to be in control. Instead, take life at a slower pace, simplify where you can & remove the unnecessary. There’s no need to waste your time & energy here-it will be needed elsewhere. This is because the Falcon is telling your gut to instead use these on your OWN goals or committed direction. Never mind the distractions or detractors- proceed ahead with firm unwavering focus on your desired result. Whatever choice you decide to make, commit to it 100% remaining mindful of the true purpose of that mission. Keep your eyes on the prize & seize opportunity when it presents itself even if your think you are unready or unprepared. You’ll be supported in surprising ways along the way. Let the masses rant, you got shit to do.

Guidance for September 11, 2022: “A Model of Queenly Peace”
Aspect in Life: Peace
Do This: The Queen (Feminine Sovereignty)
Don’t do this: The Dagger (Overt Hostility-Acts of Defense)
Restoration or preservation of peace- Pay mind to anything that threatens your serenity, inner calm, peace of mind or emotional & spiritual integrity, to hurts, traumas or guilt that need healing or any opposition that requires reconciliation. The Queen, a symbol of feminine sovereignty, could represent someone in your life, a mood to be adopted or actions to be taken to steady your peace or the peace of others. Whether seeking out the comfort of The Queen in your own life or embracing her traits to provide that refuge for someone else, we all need a soft place to land to recharge or lick our wounds from time to time. Self- aware & knowing the world is her oyster, this archetype is highly capable, fiercely loyal, regal & proud. However, there are times when she must hide her vulnerability or true feelings for the sake of her family & those she cares about to preserve stability. This mature ruler is fully cognizant of her duty to a higher cause; she’s strong in her feminine power. Naturally confident and emotionally solid, this Queen is hardly someone to be trifled with. Her love is deep & unwavering and she WILL keep peace at home & bring order to whatever she has direct influence over. Over her dead body will you bring that nonsense to her front door never mind to her family or into her body. If it’s within her power to do so, she will go to the ends of the earth to maintain serenity, protection & a sanctuary for any who seek it. Confident, disciplined & effective in her leadership, she can take care when & where life calls for it. Quiet in her strength, she doesn’t have to be aggressive, rant & rave or make a scene to prove her point or show that she’s dead serious. Nor does she have time for backstabbers; they just pull her attention from where it’s needed most. She doesn’t waste her energy on hypervigilance either or open displays of hostility. It’s her faith in her own abilities & knowing the Divine is her “rod & staff” in times of danger to provide protection & a safe haven. It’s this manna that feeds her inner sanctum so that she may provide the same shelter for others.
Guidance for September 4, 2022:
“Building Faith in your Abilities”
Habit to break: Vertigo with The Empress Reversed (Dependency on others)
Habit to form: Sacrifice with The Star
Habit to strengthen: Witch with The Two of Coins
A disquieting array of choices can paralyze you into inaction afraid of making the wrong choice. You tend to do nothing or else, you rely heavily upon others to help make it for you. The insecurity you feel now stems from the lack of support you experienced when you were younger. Possibly, a highly critical mom who often found fault in your actions and gave you little confidence in your innate abilities to intuitively choose the right way for yourself. Navigating life with this self-doubt has been a painful & frustrating way to live but are you ready to cut free of looking to others to illuminate the best course of action? This habit of being dependant on others to highlight your “correct path or choice” has been keeping you small. Are you willing to sacrifice dependency to gain personal growth? To restore hope in your ability to master your mind, build inner confidence & faith in your intuition? The Star card points to forming new habits of personal growth and mental stability. It’s speaking to the process of self-empowerment which is basically an act of love for yourself. Instead of selling yourself short, have faith that this is possible for yourself. You can do it and you can manage it. You are called to nurture or mother the confidence that should have been built in you as you grew thereby helping you form a calmer state of mind during times of challenge. It’s possible to be optimistic and positive when assessing & considering life options instead of being overwhelmed by them. You can focus on one thing at a time and not be distracted by choices. Nor be fearful of making a decision that will trap, limit or bind you in some way all the while giving yourself permission to make a wrong choice without any shame or guilt. The appearance of the Two of Coins shows you are taking this concept to heart & moving forward with it. So, whether it’s a pause between two choices or an attempt to do 2 things at once, you are intuitively learning more about how you are going to balance your life. This magic has always been inside you; it’s just in need of strengthening. The fact that you are capable & plugged into your inner connection (Divine Self or Higher Knowing) and you can harmonize multiple possibilities at once without coming apart at the seams. By being more firmly grounded in yourself allows you to hold multiple strategies, scenarios, or options in your mind. This mental flexibility will allow you to make tough decisions with grace & confidence. Whichever you choose, it will be the right one to place you exactly where you’re supposed to be.
