There’s no meditation drawing today. I apologize for the inconvenience.
For today and through the weekend, just be kind to each other. Stand up for the rights of each other. Spread respect, not bigotry and hate. That what real humans do and we need more of that acceptance and love in the world.

Monday is a holiday here in the States. So we’ll be back on Tuesday.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Life takes a lot of give and take. You’ve gotten used to the giving. Or in some cases losing what you’ve worked hard for. Time to stop that downhill snowball and welcome the unexpected gifts back into your life. In some cases though, you need to find out what strings are attached. And if anything is expected of you in return, you need to refuse acceptance.

Additional Insight:

Someone may honestly be trying to give you something, to let you know there are still good people who care about others. Be gracious and welcome their kindness. You’re not doing yourself any favors by trying to be courageous and refusing a gift. Even if you think it’s all someone else has and they don’t need to be giving it to you. Refusing would be a slap in the face and you certainly don’t want that. Swallow your pride and let someone help you! You deserve it too!!

In other cases, someone might be using your struggle as leverage hidden in a surprise. Those people have ulterior motives and want you on their side without having a real concern for you. Or what might happen to you as a result of their “gift”. Be cautious of those “too good to be true” offers. Continue reading →

Watch your pennies and stay on budget or keep to your plan! As much as you want to indulge in your favorite activity, you know this isn’t the week to let go or give in. Fulfill the desires with personal introspection and seek out what really has true value to your soul. The physical world is tempting, but your spirit knows what you really need right now.

Additional Insight:

So things have been going well, but for many, it’s still a week by week budget or focus that dominates our day. It’s nice that you’re feeling good about things, but that’s only because you’ve stuck to your current limits and worked on your bigger plan. Now is not the time to spend a windfall that you don’t really have yet. Whither that’s financial, emotional or some other goal you’ve been working on. Patience and fortitude will serve you best today.

No matter what your situation, frivolous expenditures through money, emotion or time, won’t give you what you really want. If you’re not careful, you’ll fall right back into the old trap of trying to make yourself feel better by being surrounded with “things” that you already know aren’t good for you. Taking time to be within yourself, to express who you are freely and what you really wish you could become, are the better actions. Continue reading →

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Remember that worry makes you weary. Time to stop dwelling on things that cannot be changed. A chapter is over, it’s ok to grieve. But dwelling on that grief won’t change the outcome and it won’t bring you peace. Everything happens in its right time and space. When it’s over, it’s over. Let it go and move on.

Additional Insight:

Change is hard, we all know that. But change is the only constant in the Universe. You can’t stop it, you can turn back the clock. All you can do is manage how you allow events in your life to affect you today and into the future. The more you hold onto those situations of change, the more control you’re giving to the event that occurred. Let go of the struggle and move forward for your own sake.

“You cannot change the past. You can only change the way
you allow the past to affect your present and your future.”

Just because you have others to think about, doesn’t mean forsaking your own Mind, Body and Spirit. Being a whole and balanced you will be better for everyone concerned. Whither you need to take a stand or accept the consequences of a decision already made. It’s time to put the struggle to rest and move forward for the betterment of yourself, and all others concerned. The choice isn’t going to be as hard as you’re worrying it will be. So stop thinking the worst! Continue reading →

Tears of Joy, not sorrow, are in the works. A long-standing source of stress, will finally be resolved in your favor. Allow yourself to “let it out” and release the anxiety you’ve been carrying for so long. It’s time to let healing take over and a new exploration of life to begin.

Additional Insight:

While the majority of the world has been moving along over the past five years, some have still been struggling for any kind of recovery in various areas of their lives. For those still struggling, today is your day to find that illusive place of relief. Don’t fear the final judgement. Even if you don’t get everything you wanted, you will still come out ahead. There are many reasons to feel grateful for the success you’ll find this week. Even if you can’t see them all right now. Continue reading →

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

You’ve made your choice, now be resolved and be at peace with it. The path you walk isn’t for others to judge, this isn’t their life you’re leading. The fear and doubt they have about their journey, isn’t something you need to share or hold near and dear with the steps you take to move forward. It’s your life, lead it.

Additional Insight:

Many people have been living in the shadows allowing others to make decisions that impact our day-to-day life. From personal to political we’ve been comfortable in our shoes, walking the path that others have laid out for us. Maybe because we didn’t want the responsibility, or it just seemed easier that way. Maybe because we haven’t been able to believe in ourselves, that we can be the one in charge of where we’re going. Continue reading →

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Watch out for the deception trying to confuse, redirect and manipulate you. Keep yourself grounded in confidence, facts and evidence. Especially if you’ve already done the research. Stick to your guns and don’t buy into those stories that try to circumvent the truth with personal drama and rumor. You’re the one who can remain in the light of knowledge, fly under the radar and come out on the right side of the current chaos.

Additional Insight:

Don’t listen to the rhetoric of others. They don’t know any more than you do and are only repeating rumors. If the latest battles involve you directly, then find your own way. Do your own research and discover the actual truth. You may need to find new sources for your information, including the evaluation of facts offered by the opposition. You won’t find the truth by staying within a comfortable bubble. You must look at all sides in order to fully understand what’s been hidden all along and what the real truth has been.

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 →

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Don’t get too tied up in the details, it’s liable to bog you down. But don’t worry too much, there’s someone there to help you get out of the situation. You’ll be able to move and enjoy some freedom, before the day is over. 

Additional Insight:

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. The stress will only divert your attention from the task at hand. Keep your anger and frustration in check so you can think through the situation and untangle the problem. Even if it’s a lot of little problems, you’ll find a way out. Continue reading →

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

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 →
