Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Even the head of the Clan needs healing and compassion from time to time. You can’t hide from the world when you’re the one everyone else looks up to. Your emotions and state of mind governs the atmosphere of all those within your world. It maybe hard for you, but you can allow those close to you to help out and give you comfort. You’re not alone and you’re not doing yourself any favors by suffering alone in solitude.

Additional Insight:

Whither you’re Mom, Dad, or the Boss; your energy sets the pace of your part of the world. How you feel and move through the day impacts all those close to you, but it may also extend to those you don’t even know.

When you’re the one at the top of the ladder, others are looking up to you when things go right. But even if  you know it or not, they also look up to and wonder how they can help or support you when things are going wrong. Some may simply want to give you a hug, to let you know they care.

We don’t always understand the challenges that fall on our path. Are they karmic? Are they deeds that we created through choices we made years ago? Or did we get caught up in the consequences of someone else’s actions? At no fault of our own, we can sometimes pay a high price for the mistakes that others make. And we can’t see the answers to the questions, why? Why me? Why now? Continue reading →

The Raven’s Knight appears once again to remind you that things are changing. Crow magik is still at work and manifesting your hard work. Don’t get discouraged with a little bump in the road. Things happen, you made a mistake, oh well. No need to worry and fear you’ll have to jump through hoops again. Keep calm, improvise and it will be easy to step over the log that crosses your path.

Additional Insight:

Everyone makes a mistake, you, me, everyone! The bump in the road maybe due to something you did; or something someone else did. Don’t focus on the who or what. Focus on the fix and you won’t even know it happened. Everything will be ok. Relax.

You’ll end the day with a smile on your face and with the satisfaction of a job well done. You might even have time to do a little relaxation this weekend and get some much deserved and much-needed down time. But don’t start that time off until you get your project completed today.

Keep positive, keep focused and don’t be afraid to ask for help. There’s plenty of people who are in your corner and willing to give you some assistance. You’ve helped them and they know you’re struggling. Besides you’re sort of like family to them, so let them help you out. Continue reading →

You may feel upside down and out of energy, but abundance is gathering in the branches over head. Things are coming down in pieces and right now you’ll be able to catch what comes your way. But watch out, it’s only the beginning of harvest season and you’re going to need some bigger baskets. Hang in there. Keep your nose to the grind stone. All your hard work is paying off!

Additional Insight:

You’ve managed to turn things around. Some issues have changed more quickly than others. But don’t let the slow progression of some items on your list get you upset. There are a lot of people involved in execution of your plan. The Divine in your life is working magik on everyone, good, bad or indifferent, to manifest your visions.

There are karmic issues being worked through, not only for or about you, but with others who have crossed your path along the way. If someone has done you wrong, know that you don’t need to do anything for revenge. In fact doing so might set you back or even destroy all the progress you’ve made.  Let the negative thoughts and energies go or they’ll act like an anchor weighing you down.

You must stop giving the trespassers more ammunition to continue the fight and war against you. Don’t step onto the battlefield and they can’t push you further. The Universe is taking care of these conflicts. Your adversary’s hate and anger will come back to haunt them, more than you may ever realize. It’s already started anyway. Even if you don’t know what’s going on. The Divine has been taking care of them and can provide a much bigger smack down than you ever could.

It’s not brute strength or brawn that wins the battles in life. It’s the calm thoughtful planning that overcomes challenges. Search for the answers you seek within and through good solid academic research. Avoid the fear-mongers, the nay-sayers and those who spin information to manipulate and control the message. Stick to the facts today and use your own good judgement to discover what’s accurate and what’s not.

Additional Insight:

Someone is trying to control the message and use misinformation to control your actions and responses. Make sure you do your research and discover all the facts of the topic before you react. It could be the key to winning a long standing battle or struggle.

Controlling the message is the first step to making a position popular and winning battle. But that doesn’t mean the message is right, factual or truthful. In today’s world everyone is spinning the message to say what they want it to say to control your opinion, emotions and actions. Don’t let them impose their ignorant half-true message of hate and fear upon you. Take responsibility for your thoughts and learn the truth before you choose sides in any debate.

Blind devotion of any kind is a dangerous thing. It gives away your free will and choice to those who want to control your thoughts and lead you down their path of grandeur. When their misinformation begins to fail, you won’t be able to point to them and say it’s their fault. You made the choice in the beginning to give them control over you, therefore it will be you who suffers the consequences of that blind devotion. Continue reading →

Be cautious and careful with who you trust and who you share information with. Someone around you is not what they appear to be. Being to trusting could get you hurt, even if its only an acquaintance you just met. Keep your private business private so you don’t provide any ammunition for them to twist around and use against you. You’ll be able to ride the tide, instead of being sucked into its undertow.

Additional Insight:

Someone new in your life has ulterior motives for engaging you. Their target may not be you, but rather someone you’re close to. Don’t allow them to make you a pawn in their game. Don’t let them trick you into sharing to much of yourself or someone you care about for the rest of the month.

Pay attention to your security settings online. Don’t share pictures that include you or show your activities outside of work in the public forum. Don’t give out your personal social media pages with people you’ve only just met. Even something as simple as a day at the beach could provide information to a stalker, a burglar or someone who’s looking for damaging information that could harm your position or someone close to you.

Have compassion and love for yourself. No one is perfect and never will be. You don’t need to be so critical of every little thing you think, say or do. So stop being so hard on yourself and use the compassion you have for others; on you. What you think, you create. Time to start creating the world of your dreams.

Additional Insight:

All humans are imperfect creatures. We all have some nuance of imperfection in our lives. Whither it be how we think (the mind); how we look (the body); and even how we act (the spirit), we all have something we don’t like or don’t care much for about ourselves. If we were perfect, we wouldn’t be in this incarnated state of existence, learning lessons, paying and redeeming karma, and experiencing a physical life. So you might as well accept, you’re not perfect and neither is anyone else.

You maybe great at accepting others for who and what they are. Overlooking their imperfections and giving them compassion and comfort. Why can’t you do that to the one person in your life that matters most? You! There are many phases of healing, denial, anger, guilt, acceptance, forgiveness, letting go.

When you accept yourself for who you are, you allow yourself to heal from old wounds and hurts. Forgiveness isn’t about forgiving those who may have caused you harm. It’s about forgiving yourself for holding onto harmful thoughts and releasing the anger that goes with them. When you stop looking back at what happened or what could have been, you allow the Divine in your life, to shine through you and you open the world of possibilities into your life.

Celebration is right around the corner, but it’s not here yet. Be careful you don’t let the day dreams interfere with the work that you need to get done before the sunsets and the weekend arrives. There will be time for contemplation, relaxation and fun in the evening. During the day pay attention, be focused on your tasks and you’ll be able to get everything done in time for the party to begin. Other wise you might miss out because you still have work to do.

Additional Insight:

As the ruler of your domain, you don’t get to sit back and relax through the day and expect things to get done on their own. There’s no rest for the weary today, even when you’re the boss. You work harder than anyone else to keep things moving and make sure everyone in your kingdom is taken care of. That might be a challenge these days, but you’re getting it done.

Today will require focus and fortitude to keep the cart going if you’re to bring in the first harvest of the season in the North, or complete the plans for the spring planting of the South. If you don’t pay attention to your actions during the day, you’ll be the one missing out on the fun this weekend. Be careful you don’t have to work way into the evening and maybe even the wee hours of the morning to complete your tasks that everyone else is depending on.

I know you’re tired and you want a break. You’ll have one this weekend AFTER you clear task list. If you need help making sure everything gets done, take 10minutes (no more) to make a list and prioritize what must be accomplished before Monday. Check off the little things first and you’ll have more time to complete the big things that will require more concentration. Make you take a short light lunch to help you keep your energy up and you’ll find the endurance to work hard and meet your goals. Continue reading →

Don’t start throwing swords at each other, it’s not going to get you anywhere. The feminine intuitive has been birthing ideas, suggestions and sharing feelings about what needs to be done. While the physical masculine self has been searching for answers and not living in balance with the self to get things done! Now the cross roads have become fraught with thorns. Find the balance and get things back on track.

Additional Insight:

Whither it’s a fight between partners or a fight within yourself, you’re wasting energy in arguing and pointing fingers. Each side is searching for answers and trying everything they can to rise up from beneath the thorny bush. It takes both the feminine side of intuition and emotions with the masculine side of putting things into action; to get things accomplished! Pay attention to each other, listen and implement plans and ideas from both sides!

There’s no bad player here. But there is an imbalance of energies as swords represent Strife or Strength and sometimes even both. The intuitive gut feelings come from the feminine side. Putting action with those prerogative energies comes from the masculine physical side. You need both to create a balanced road to make your travels easy and progressive.

Spending time on fighting between these two selves only creates deep seeded anger that can divide a partnership or cause an individual to spin their wheels and get no where. Don’t let the thorns of anxiety play upon your worst fears and deepen the anger that can tear you apart. It’s not worth it in the end and you could be pushing away the very thing you’re trying to hold onto the most. Continue reading →

Everyone seems to be handing things off to you. Whither they’re slacking off or really need your expertise, you’re the one who can do the research and discover the solution. Don’t get upset or annoyed, it will only take time away from you getting things done. You’re the one who will benefit most in the end.

Additional Insight:

You’re being stretched to the max and forced to do things alone. But don’t worry, you’ll get it done and prove your worth. Doing so will remind you how self-sufficient you are. As well as, how capable you still are. You really don’t need anyone else to get things done. But you seem to need to prove it to yourself.

Getting it done, will re-build confidence in yourself, but it’s also going to remind others that you got along fine without them before. And you can do that again. If they’re not willing to change and try to move things forward, you’re ready to move forward on your own.

Work through the healing of your own inner self. If you’ve scratched up old scars, you know what it will take to heal them. You’ve done it once, you can do it again. And this time, it won’t be nearly as bad as it was the last time, because you’re not the same person you were back then. So don’t allow the hurt and anger to take you back to who you used to be. Otherwise you could upset the cart and spill out all that you have gathered to improve things. If you knock them over, they’re likely to spill out on the road and be trampled on.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Your kingdom cannot move forward until you lead the way. A shield of protection is always a good idea, but not when it’s holding in fear disguised as anger and vengeance. Rise above and let your higher Spirit cloak you in kindness and compassion for those who are waiting for you to get up and walk out of the past.

Additional Insight:

Your domain may be your physical self or the Mind/Body/Spirit of you. It maybe your immediate family or home. It could even be a business or group you officiate. Or maybe even the path you’ve set for yourself and the journey you’re taking. Whatever the dynamic you’re in, you’re the leader that everyone is waiting on to lead the way.

It’s your energy that is creating the situations around you and impacting those closest to you. Some of the current events in your personal life are  mirroring your actions and your talk back to you. What you see played out in front of you from others, is the result of your perspectives, talk, thoughts and actions that are affecting the energy of world around you. Remember, what you put out, you will get back. From thought, speech and action your energy is pushing the buttons that cause strife, even if you’re not there to see it played out. 

The more you dwell on anger and revenge, the more steps you take backward. Don’t lose what you’ve gained and the work you’ve already put in to change things around. Nothing is as bad as you think they are or will become. Continue reading →
