Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

There’s a patchwork of emotions swirling about you today. Stop focusing on the lack and pay attention to the blessings in your life. There’s no reason to reach beneath you or lower your self-worth because you don’t have everything you want. That’s crazy talk. Ignore the whispers and go about your day with joy in your heart.

Additional Insight:

To many people put their value in what they “have”, instead of who they are. What you have doesn’t make a person’s character. It only provides more stuff to clean and dust or clutter up your life. During this time of year, the stress and anxiety can get to anyone. IF you allow it to. Stop putting so much pressure on yourself to make things perfect. It’s really not worth it. So just STOP.

Today is a good day to pay attention to the non-material blessings. A day to live in the moment, keep your thoughts in check and to be Mindful. What you have right now is so much more important than “things”. The grass is always greener on the other side. Don’t you think your time is better spent in your own yard, where you can spread your wings and feel the spirit of Mother Nature all around you? Continue reading →

You don’t have to go it alone or struggle over an issue by yourself. Stop thinking that everything is on your shoulders alone. Everyone has a part to play and there’s plenty of people to share the labor. All it takes is a little coordination and you’ll get through the details.

For today, keep you head in the game and don’t panic. You’ll only make things worse. So make sure you stop, take a deep breath and relax.

Even if it’s a lot of little problems, you’ll find a way out. Continue reading →

Stay in budget this week. Money doesn’t grow on trees and you have enough to bring joy and happiness to your fold. Don’t allow others to push your buttons and use guilt trips to go beyond your means. They’re not the one who will deal with the consequences.

Additional Insight:

Remind yourself that you’re doing the best you can. And right now, that’s good enough. You have a budget, you’ve made a plan, now stick to it. Others closer to home, are depending on you. The people who truly care about you, won’t push you into doing something you don’t want to do. Those that will try emotional manipulation, aren’t interested in you, they’re interested in what they get out of deal. Some only care to appear more important than they actually are.

Be cautious of those who offer aid. Make sure they’re not asking for something you don’t want to give in return. Not everyone has your best interests at heart. So watch out for the thorns that may come along with an unexpected gift. You don’t need to compromise your values, morals or beliefs. Nor should you fall for the attempts to shame you into reciprocating. Continue reading →

Be careful with your reputation, you don’t want to be branded as a snake. Your word must be your bond, full of honesty and infused with integrity. Do what you say, and keep your promises. Your character can be a benefit to your life, if you treat it with respect and reverence.

Additional Insight:

Say what you mean, and mean what you say.
Or don’t say anything at all.

Twisting the truth to fit your narrative shows a lack of integrity and defines your character as a manipulator. Having the reputation of a snake will impact all your relationships, personal and professional. It may work briefly. But such actions will catch up to you and make it harder to win friends and influence people. Continue reading →

Rest, but stay vigilant. Keep your eyes on the details, as well as, the entire landscape. A shift in movement is occurring and you need to be aware of those changes. If only to plan your next move for the weekend or coming week.

Additional Insight:

There’s no need to continue fighting, you’ve taken on the latest challenge and won. But that doesn’t mean you can sit back and rest on your laurels. You still need to keep up the effort to move forward and not become stagnate or complacent. Doing so could hand the momentum back to the forces trying to hold you back or cancel out all the ground you’ve gained.

You have earned the right to feel confident. Allow that feeling to bring you a little peace through the rest of the week. But stay ready to pick up your banner again next week. There’s still much to do.

The Raven tells us we’re going through a metamorphosis and change dominates the terrain. But we must continue to look through the fog and see what’s really going on before us. We must attain clarity in our vision. What we see, hear and think may not be the truth or what’s really going on behind the scenes. There’s a difference in what we want to see, what we’re willing to hear and the truth. Continue reading →

The prize has been won. Healing can now begin in earnest. But don’t give away your heart just yet. There’s still deception in play that can bring the rug out from underneath your feet. Remove the rose-colored glasses and listen to your instincts.

Additional Insight:

Something isn’t right today and you already feel it. Don’t try to talk yourself into ignore your gut feelings. Just because someone is being nice and trying to make amends, doesn’t mean they’ve changed or they’ve abandoned their plans to cause harm.

It’s ok to want to think the best of people and have a positive compassionate attitude. But it must be balanced with a measure of caution and real honesty from within. Those rose glasses you’re wearing have gotten you into trouble in the past. Why do you think your instincts are less valid than others around you? Stop it! And listen to that gut feeling.
