Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Don’t let the frustration and attitudes of others ruin your day. Remember others are going through a great deal of stress too. You’re not the cause, of their angst so don’t take it personally. Take a deep breath, calm yourself and set a shield of protection that will keep the negative energies away from you. Then remember where you were 6 months ago and show some compassion. Maybe they simply need someone to talk to. Remember those days? Listening can go along way to helping someone else.

Additional Insight:

You don’t have to spend the day dodging spears and anger. You have a choice to walk away. Go to another room, close the office door, or simply find a quiet place to work.

You can also remember how you felt when you were overloaded with stress and show some compassion too. Remember when you simply wanted someone; anyone; to notice you exist? Maybe that’s exactly what someone else is wishing for now.

Don’t take the bait and step into the ring. This argument isn’t about you, so don’t allow it to take over your day and create strife in your world. You’ve been through the battles and there’s no need to create something new. Relax and take a deep breath. See this for what it really is. Someone else is going through a great deal of anxiety and they’re looking for anyone or anything to release it. Be a friend, not an adversary and help them out. After all, you’ve been there and know exactly how they feel. Continue reading →

Be on guard and keep your eye on the end game. Don’t get distracted today and don’t let others divert your attention. Stay strong and be accountable for your choices. If you want to be self-sufficient, you’re going to have to do the work that comes with that responsibility. Stop letting the unknown instill fear within your psyche. Rather, look at the unknown as an exciting adventure ready to show you the beauty of the world around you.

Additional Insight:

Being able to take care of yourself requires work and constant oversight of your life. That’s not hard when you accept the responsibility to be self-sufficient. It’s merely part of life. No one is going to look our for you, better than yourself. So be self assured and confident in your own gut feelings and ability to keep your path moving forward.

Don’t be afraid to do the work or see it as a daunting task. All it takes to remain vigilant is a little self-control and confidence. Don’t feel pressured or pushed into something that you haven’t had time to review on your own.

Don’t blame someone else for making a choice “for you”. In order to fight for what’s yours and attain your desire for self-sufficiency, you must have the courage to say I’d like a few minutes to read this, or research and gather information so I can make the best decision possible.

Use your internal insight to empower your growth and much-needed healing. You’ve put out so much of yourself over the past year from everything you lost and had to give up as a result. The struggles have taken a toll and zapped both your physical and mental energies. Get out into the garden, woods or fields and allow Mother Nature to wrap around you in Mind/Body and Spirit. Allow the healing to bring back at least some of your adventurous spirit.  Take a drive to a nearby park and have a picnic, go for a walk in the woods with a friend or family member. And share some meaningful time talking about nothing, everything and all that in between. 

Additional Insight:

Part of overcoming struggle is allowing your whole self to be at peace and calm in the new life you’re re-building in better ways. Spend a few hours away from everything that stressed you out in the past. Let go of all the overwhelming sorrow and despair you’ve been through. You’ve mourned long enough.

Now is the time to heal the wounds and stop dwelling on the past. Each time you cry or focus on the struggle, you’re only reopening old wounds that keep you in despair. That kind of energy will not allow you to heal, nor will it clear the way for new and exciting things to enter.

Allow your inner spirit to guide the way and remind you of the carefree spirit you have within you. You don’t need money to take a walk in a park. Even the biggest cities have pockets of greenery to surround yourself with. Don’t make excuses, don’t talk yourself into staying on the couch. Get outside with someone you care about and share some quality time. Continue reading →

Be vigilant. You’ve made great progress and achieved many goals, but you’re not finished yet. You can’t hand off your chores to others and be done with it. To be in control of YOUR life, you must stay involved and provide oversight to the tasks at hand. Don’t micro-manage. You’re still the one who is accountable for the work going on in your name. So make sure you know what’s going on, or at the very least, what the current status is. Your remaining tasks need your energy to continue to flourish and manifest in a timely fashion that’s good for you!

Additional Insight:

While the big battles are completed and you’ve managed to reach the top of the mountain, you’re not at the summit yet. The plateau you’ve reached has provided a little time to relax and regain your strength. But there is still a little further to go, before you reach the pinnacle of your particular mountain. A few more tasks to clear and turn around as you walk across the very top, need to be completed.

So stay vigilant, keep focused on your list of things to do and don’t put things off till the very last moment. You’re still the one directing the path of your journey. Stay on top of it and get everything done that needs doing.  Then you’ll be able to cross the peak and enjoy the walk to the place of your dreams.

Take a little time to look back where you came from. You may see little skirmishes still going on for other people, and some you may know. It’s hard moving forward on your own, when you know what they’re going through and how hard the climb has been to get out of the fray. Continue reading →

The baskets are filling up and you can relax a little bit. The big stress has lifted, but there’s still some work to be done. October brought about big changes that might have you finally believing “We’re really going to be ok”. Don’t let the moment of relaxation pass you by without a little recognition. You need to celebrate the little moments, because the big ones don’t come around that often.

Additional Insight:

Everyone has their standards and limits. What’s needed for you to believe you’re going to be ok, is different from what someone else might need. But if you don’t take a moment to acknowledge even the little gains you’ve made, you might exhaust your energy trying to manifest the big goals.

Life rarely turns on a dime. Rather you make headway one small step at a time and before you know it, you’ve climbed the side of an entire mountain. But that means you need to stop on the way up, find a place to sit, relax and re-energize in order to continue the journey.

Think of this moment as one of those small plateaus where you can share a little celebration with those closest to you and see how far you’ve come. You’ve worked hard. You’ve made changes that weren’t easy to make. You’ve endured and fought for what’s yours and you’ve won a lot of those battles. Continue reading →

You hold the magik in your hands to create what you need moving forward. Don’t be controlled by others who want to sucker you into a position that benefits them and not you. Take time to listen intently and consider the source of delivering the message. Someone is trying to manipulate you through fear and misinformation. They’re going to push your buttons to get you angry to do what they want. Keep calm. Don’t let them manipulate you, and make sure you research their claims before you act on the fear-mongering. Create a firm shield of protection to keep out the negative and hold onto the gains you made yesterday!

Additional Insight:

A lot of people are trying to get you to do things that are good for them, but not necessarily benefit you. They’re using every tactic in the book from fear and distraction, to out right lies. Before you make any decisions today, research what you’re being told. It doesn’t take much to Google a topic and discover some reliable sources.

Be the King of your domain today and make your judgements based on facts; not exaggerated emotions. Reliable sources aren’t hard to find. And it’s better to take a little time up front to research, than to allow your emotions to sky rocket and then discover later, there was no need to get all worked up. News organizations can slant a story from left to right, so be wary of their opinions and suppositions. But good reporting will give you the facts and help you discover if the story you’re being told really happened or not, and in the way it’s being told. Continue reading →
