Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Death

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

For some, death is a welcomed cycle that brings peace with an end to suffering and pain. For others, it’s about change, which is the only constant in the Divine Universe. The cycle isn’t something to fear, it’s simply part of everyday life. You’ve come to the end of this chapter and things are coming to a close. Make sure you have acknowledged those you love, don’t say good-bye in anger and feel blessed for the lessons you’ve learned. Even though they may have been hard; you’re stronger for getting through and enduring the hardships that have come your way.


Additional Insight:

Whether you maybe saying goodbye to a loved one; or facing the end of a chapter in your life, embrace the changes that bring the struggles to a close.

Those who have the desire to leave this physical world are looking for peace and freedom from pain and sickness. Yes it might be fearful for those left behind, but in the scheme of things that selfish fear must grow up and take life on in their own right. Look for the blessings in the passing of family and friends. They no longer suffer through the physical pain and can rise up with all their strength in spirit. They’re able to watch over you who are left behind and try to give you guidance that make things easier and bring happiness into your life.

For those who have been going through rocky relationships, or situations of great challenge, it’s a time to rise up out of the struggle by bringing the past to a close. Put all the anxiety in a box to close it up and let it go. You’re moving onto an easier road that will lift you out of the daily conflict and overwhelming worry. Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Ten of Wands

10 of Wands

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Keep your magik flowing and allow your inspiration to set you free. Those trying to hold you down are losing the battle. Their efforts to capture your energy has only made you stronger. You have grown in strength, distinction and wisdom that will help you overcome these challenges. Your enterprising solutions will work in your favor and help you to fly out of the darkness and despair.


Additional Insight:

Represent the essence of Enterprise & Inaction, Inspiration & Pessimism, Distinction & Disregard

The “enemy” controlling the ropes has had strength in numbers to capture you and hold you at their will. You have struggled and endured. Learned lessons as you have put your battle plans into play. Even though you have lost many times on the battlefield, you have learned from those events. Now that wisdom is supporting your current effort that could have you finally winning the war.

You have endured and from not giving up or giving in, you are much stronger now. You’re able to pull back on those ropes and get free from the oppression. Energy is still moving and it’s a work in progress. Don’t stop yet though. There’s still some magik up your sleeves that need to be brought out into the light.

It may seem like you’re running out of time, but oddly enough time is on your side. Keep the worry at bay and don’t allow its shadow back into your day. Keep the dreams alive by staying focused on the positives, the dreams and the ultimate outcome you desire. You never know what rewards the Divine might bring to you. So don’t limit the possibilities by talking yourself out of achieving that lofty and spectacular gift.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Five of Cups

5 of Cups

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Stop crying over spilt milk. You can’t go back and change what has happened. All you can do is learn from the past and make sure you apply their lessons to the here and now. Not all of your cups are empty. You still have the important things. Now dry your tears, stop feeling sorry for yourself, buck up and get to work. Time is of the essence.


Additional Insight:

Hiding your eyes and putting things off isn’t going to win the current battle. All it’s going to do is lose time and put more pressure on you to get a lot done in a short amount of time. Stop wasting it and do what you know needs to be done. You’ll manage the stress a lot better if you simply look where you’re going.

Whether you realize it or not, there’s a purpose to all that you’re going through. You may not know what it is for some time, but the answer will become clear eventually. If you keep repeating your pattern of procrastination, you’ll only prolong the agony. And the continual struggle could tear apart the one thing that means the most to you.

You’ve started the process of turning things over to welcome in the new abundance coming your way. The cups aren’t letting more go, they’re bringing more in because you’ve worked to change things around. So why are you still facing the day with the same defeatist attitude? Stop it already!

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Eight of Cups – Inverted

Eight of Cups - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

What you think, you create. So keep thinking positive. It’s a big day to remember what you’ve learned and put it all into practice. Keep positive and keep the fear at bay. You’ve worn away the blocks and can see through the remaining issues. Keep yourself grounded in the moment and do what needs to be done. You’re surrounded by success. Let it manifest and spread through all areas of life.


Additional Insight:

Cups represent the essence of Emotions & Apathy, Happiness & Despair, Abundance & Lack.

Some people see an inverted tarot card and automatically think negative, dread and bad omens. I see an inverted card and think, there are opportunities to view things differently that help you see beyond the doom. As I type this, literally, a large branch from a tree fell in the big storm we’re having at the moment. Some would see that as a bad omen, the death of the tree. I see it as a gift from the tree, where it’s limb will be used in the fire-bowl to bring warmth and light during the next ritual celebration. Today’s card is all about the essence of perspectives and how you use them to create what you see and feel.

There’s still work to be done, don’t allow your fear to get out of hand and cause you to be apathetic. If you continue to imagine the worst, that’s what you’re going to create. Be Mindful about what you focus on throughout the day and week. If a piece of the negative scenario comes into your thinking, sweep it away and replace it with what you really desire. Allow yourself to see with better eyes.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Strength – Inverted

Strength Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Building your escape route is the key to getting out of the situation you’re in. You will find healing in the effort and you’ll find the way up and out of the flames you’ve been going through. While you have tried other methods that haven’t come through as you’d like, keep moving forward. This time, you’re building in the right direction to climb your way out of the picture of struggle. You’re at the edge where you can return to the place of strength you’ve always held in your life. Keep going!


Additional Insight:

Putting yourself in a cocoon isn’t going to solve your dilemma. It’s only going to help keep you lost and going in circles. The storm is raging outside for some, while others can see the clouds clearing. In either case, stop sitting in shadow to hide from the light that’s trying to get your attention and guide the way. Be quiet and take time to listen!

While you may feel beaten up, confused and exhausted, now is not the time to give up. Things may not be resolved yet and you may not even know if what you’re doing is going to be the final answer. But at the very least, your current direction is going to take you to where you need to be and bring a final solution to the struggle.

You’ve had the fortitude to fight, trying to correct the mistakes of the past. Or to recover from the situations you have been put in by much bigger forces than you could control. You’ve given up a great deal to endure the struggle. You’ve sacrificed, you’ve given in, you’ve been pushed, prodded and restricted. Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Seven of Cups – Inverted

Seven of Cups - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Preen your feathers, look your best and get ready to strut your stuff. All eyes are upon you today and you are being judge. Let your ambition carry you through with confidence and you will discover the self-sufficiency you have been looking for. Keep your temper in check, ignore those trying to feed their insecurities by demeaning you. And you’ll find it’s your day to shine.


Additional Insight:

While you’re looking within to build yourself up and improve your circumstances, others are struggling with their own insecurities. Be kind, be patient and try to deflect their attacks on you. It’s not personal, you just happen to be handy right now. When they realize you won’t take the bait, they’ll move on to someone new and leave you alone.

Keep your focus on what you have to do and who you need to impress. It’s a day to put the wheels in motion and in your favor. You can walk away with the bouquet of success, and allow healing to begin. Or you can hold onto the anger, fight a battle that has nothing to do with you and risk everything you’ve worked for.

Be calm. Don’t be tricked into an argument. Don’t allow someone to take your attention away from what’s important to you today. It may not be easy with the hen in the yard trying to peck at you to be noticed. But don’t give into their negativity or reward their bad actions with your attention. You have better things to do.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Four of Swords – Inverted

Four of Swords - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Relax, it’s going to be ok. Spend the afternoon and weekend getting some rest and regain your mental and physical strength.  Take a nap or three. Allow yourself to dream the impossible dream, because they might actually happen. Don’t go out and put on pretenses, while beneath the surface you’re still stressed. Stay at home, snuggle with the one you love and heal up, both inside and out.


Additional Insight:

Don’t shirk your duties today. Get your work done this morning and you’ll have the rest of the afternoon and weekend to relax and knock of the stress you’ve been going through. After today, you’ve done all you can and the future is in the hands of others.

Swords represent Strength & Weakness, Endurance & Struggle, Respect & Animosity.

All the work you’ve put into your project(s) have come with their fair share of stress. Some warranted, some you’ve put on yourself. You’ve endured the struggle  with fortitude and strength! You’re still here, still fighting the good fight. But now it’s time to let go of the anxiety and anger that’s been dragging you down.

You can’t change others, only yourself. You can’t sit in judgement, because you don’t have all the facts. Nor can you take all the blame and heap that burden on your shoulders, to be responsible for either. There’s more than one player involved in this game you’ve been forced into. So even though you may hold a nagging thought that it’s all your fault, you know deep in your heart it’s not. And you don’t deserve to carry the punishment for someone else’s actions. No one does!

Four of Cups Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Even though you’re trying to go with the flow, you can still steer your boat along the way. Stop thinking you’re at the mercy of others. You have a rudder that allows you to glide along the surface and make subtle changes on your travels. Don’t become angry and work against those who are on your side and trying to help. They need you, as much as you need them. Stay strong and stand up for yourself. It’s a day of patience and fortitude.


Additional Insight:

You always have choices. Big and small and every size in between. Slight though as some maybe, even the smallest of movements now can make big differences over the long haul. Make sure you know what you really want, not from a place of lack and fear that cloud you in fog. But from your higher inner self that can see the mission ahead and understands what’s needed to get there.

Be patient with yourself and take time today, to go within and view your spiritual mission from a place of higher Divine consciousness. What’s needed to guide your boat through the rapids? What decisions, big or small, need to be made to ensure you’re headed down the correct side of the river? Your connection to the Divine spirit in your life isn’t hanging you out to dry. They are waiting for you to take responsibility of your own actions and direct your own life along the way.

Going with the flow is a great way to move through the day. But that doesn’t mean you can sit back and do nothing. You must put rudder in water, look ahead at what’s coming and make little corrections along the way to avoid the pitfalls and tragedies that could get in the way. Live your life with accountability and confidence and you will and can avoid the struggles the can get in the way. Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Three Of Pentacles – Reversed

3 of Pentacles - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

You may have finances hanging in the air right now. Shine a light on them and you can discover what’s really going on beneath the service. The end result could be more in your favor than you ever could have dreamed! So don’t give up and don’t give in. Fight for your rights until the very end. In a reasonable way of course.


Additional Insight:

The system isn’t fair for everyone and many fall through the cracks. The only way to crawl back up out of those shadows is to keep fighting for what’s right. It’s hard and it’s tiring. But working within the system is the only way to fight back and hold everyone accountable for their actions on the battlefield.

Don’t be afraid to contact others who might help. Make a formal complaint, or file an official claim or objection. Take time to search online and discover what others in your situation have done and how did those who succeeded, get that end result? 

Shining a light on the problem, even if it’s only your piece of the street, might be all that’s needed to change the system. Not only for you, but for others who are struggling and suffering in the same system as you. 

There’s a lot of deceit going on in the world. Those who are trying to do things correctly or who have done everything they were asked to do, can still level the playing field and move things back in there favor. So don’t give up! Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Two of Pentacles

Two of Penacles

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

You have an awful lot going on with your finances. The more you look at it with worry and trepidation, the more you’ll create lack instead of abundance. Time to put your thoughts behind your goals and let go of the fear. Abundance is here and you’re going to be better off than you thought. Stop worrying already!


Additional Insight:

All the work you have been doing isn’t keeping you stuck in the mud or spinning your wheels, struggling to survive. Though it may feel like it. There has been movement, small and large, though you may not have seen all the work going on behind the scenes.

You and your partner (personal or business), have been planting and nurturing your garden all year. Now you’re not only seeing the prosperity of your garden, but you should be feeling its abundant change as well. That is, if you can allow yourself to relax enough from the disabling fear and allow it to come forth.

As you fill up your fall baskets and get ready for winter, don’t look at this as a temporary thing. That’s still expressing an amount of worry and a perspective of lack. That’s only going to create a self fulfilling prophecy. Remember to imagine every thing that comes your way and adds to your winter stores as an abundant reward for your hard work. View it three times the size than it is and give it energy to grow three times larger when it comes back to you.
