Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

No one can take away your confidence and pride. No matter how much you may have given up in the material world, there are some things you simply cannot lose. Unless, you give it away yourself. Don’t lose faith in your ability to succeed and give up who you are for a false promise. You’re worth more than that. And you deserve better!

Additional Insight:

Desperation makes a very bad bed fellow.
Don’t give up and give away your very soul.

All things around you are changing, and they are moving in the direction you need them to go. You may not be able to see the destination, but that doesn’t mean you should get off the trail and look for another route to where you’re going. That desperation will lead you down a path of greater pitfalls and struggle. Stay the course and ride out this brief lack of confidence.

You deserve more and indeed you’re working toward making things better. But the unknown that’s holding you in fear can divert your good intentions and judgement down a path of false promises. Don’t give up the ship for the little dingy that will not hold all the rewards you deserve. Continue reading →

Sometimes all the little jabs can add up and pull you down. Don’t be so hard on yourself and remember that feeling sad is just as much a part of living in balance as being overjoyed. You can’t appreciate happiness, if you don’t understand the sadness. But don’t let the struggles overwhelm you. Each one is nothing more than a passing moment.

Additional Insight:

Try not to overlook the little things in life,
because the big things don’t happen very often.
Finding a thrill in everyday events is Priceless!

In the world of spirituality and life coaching we do a lot of talking about choosing to be happy. Starting the day with positive thinking and creating the day you want. But in paganism we talk a lot about living in balance and striving to achieve a balance in all things. And that includes your emotions.

Feeling sad isn’t a bad thing. Having a good cry every now and then is a very cleansing experience. It pulls up the energy of struggle, disappointment and challenge in a release that “gets it out” and gives you a chance to let it go. Holding it in all the time can keep that energy churning away within and eventually causing physical illness. Finding healthy ways to face it and let it out can help you release all the little thorns in your side that have piled on and weakened your resolve. Continue reading →

You may feel as though troubles are raining down upon you today. But you’re much stronger than you think you are. You really aren’t losing the battle. In fact, if you pay attention to details, you’ll discover that the negative events are falling by the wayside. Stay calm and you won’t become the target. You’ll be able to weave your way through the fire and escape without issue.

Additional Insight:

There’s a lot of change going on in the world. A lot of it is pushing people and events to change when they don’t want to. That’s creating turmoil for those who are moving forward and welcoming the shifts needed in their lives.

If you’re one of the people going with the flow and enjoying the adventure, you can still feel the anxiety going on around you. Especially if you’re sensitive to subtle energy shifts. Don’t worry. It’s not you. Try to set some shields of protection and push away the fear, anger and turmoil of others. Don’t let their struggles become your battles. You may find yourself in a fight that has no value for you.

If you’re fighting against the tide and trying to keep the status quo going, you’re putting yourself in the line of fire. You’re being pushed out of negative or bad situations and toward a better environment. Don’t fear the change, revel in it. Accept that some things have to change in order for you path to get better. You’re not where you should be and the Divine in your life is trying very hard to get you moving. Continue reading →

Once again you need to pay attention to the flow of your thoughts. Things are not upside as your anxiety is telling you. Stop expecting the bottom to fall out or you will make it happen! Keep within your means, do what you can and you’ll control your environment with ease. Letting go doesn’t mean throwing caution to the wind. It means actively participating in the here and now, to focus on your positive future.

Additional Insight:

Don’t create a self-fulfilling prophecy. Letting go of your anxiety doesn’t mean you can ignore your budget or your work load. It means you must release the negative thoughts that hold you back from taking care of those things in your own life and being consciously responsible for your choices.

You can’t throw caution to the wind, say I let go and let ‘God’ and then go out and spend what you know you don’t have. You must live in the here and now, with an eye on the future. Swinging the pendulum to the other side of the extreme is no better than living without. Today strive for the balance in the middle.

Focus on the even keel and you’ll discover you’re not losing things from your baskets, but rather adding to them. Your anxiety won’t get the best of you, because you’re being accountable. You’re reasoning things out and setting up a plan to have the little things you desire, while still working on the really big things. And you will be able to do both, if you keep calm.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Be open to receiving and what you need will present itself. Be careful that your annoyance at situations and at certain people don’t close you off to welcoming what’s coming back your way.  You maybe holding things together with a string. But you’re strong enough to get through the delay and wait for the rewards. Remember, things happen in their right time and space. As long as you’re open for it to happen.

Additional Insight:

Things aren’t always what they seem. You’re not losing ground even though you may think you are. Those thoughts are nothing more than your anxiety getting the best of you…again. Turn the focus upside down and you’ll see nothing is falling out of your baskets. You’re still on track and things are still ok.

Remember to open your arms and catch the things that are coming your way. They’re not really rewards, but rather things you’ve worked hard to achieve and bring into abundance. So stop waiting for the other shoe to fall. It’s not going to happen!

Instead, keep control of your stress and pay attention to the little gains you’ve made. Things aren’t nearly as tough as they were this time last year. Or as tough as they were the year before that. You have come a long way and you are making strides. Keep your head on your shoulders. Keep yourself open to receiving good tidings and let the Fae bring some magik into your day. Continue reading →
