Tarot Contemplation – Page of Cups

tarot_PageCups

Be gentle with yourself today and be sure to set aside some time for daydreaming.  It’s okay to say “no” to invitations, or to leave an unpleasant or uncomfortable situation.  Having good emotional boundaries is essential to restoring your energy on days like today.  Today, you encounter the energies of someone you know, encounter or some aspect of yourself that is youthful, sensitive, imaginative … with a heart open to love and messages from her Higher Self.  You, or this person you might meet, is emotionally needy and feels unfulfilled when not romantically involved, though willing to share her deepest feelings and dearest dreams.  This person has a strong desire to express herself creatively and can feel stifled and unhappy when she doesn’t have time for creative play.  Pay attention to messages that come through in your dreams … or even a love letter!

Say after me: Lunae Lumen Invocatio Me Confortat (moon light invocation empowers me)

September 16th 2016 – Full Harvest Moon 24* Pisces
Culmination: 12:07pm pacific / 3:07pm eastern

Instead of darkness, this night greets us with the light of the full moon. Again we can bathe in the silver rays that the nocturnal want veiled. This moon is 24* Pisces and yearns to reveal your life’s secrets. The karma entangled with others, whose ties seem sneered, may now be cut. For clarity hidden by confusion surfaces within. The choice bestowed upon your path allows you to reflect and project. To see deeper into the pools of your inner being; where fear and doubt may dwell. This may expose your blocks and tonight you grant yourself the power to see through yourself as though you are water. Allow this transformation, trust it without…

Tarot Contemplation – Knight of Pentacles

tarot_KnightPentacles

Work on a project that is important to you today.  You have a very practical and strategic mindset that will serve you well.  Don’t get caught up in little details … keep on moving and producing.  You can come back to refine later.  This card also signifies the appearance of a person you know or will encounter or some aspect of yourself that is present or to call upon now.   This Knight is cautious, slow-moving and dependable.  He is very careful about everything he does, and sometimes gets so caught up in the details that progress is halted.  The progress he does make, however, is sturdy and long-lasting.  He is a loyal and reliable friend.  He may sometimes be boring or stubborn, but he gives well-thought out and practical advice.  He can be controlling and may value principles and rules over all else.  He values comfort and security and loves luxury.  He is able to take what he’s learned from academic studies and past experiences and use it in very practical ways.

You are very clear headed today.  It’s a good time to look at the big picture of your life.  What do you most deeply value?  Are your values reflected in how you spend your time and energy?  If not, today is a great day to rearrange your priorities.  You will be presented with an opportunity to use your mind to cut through obstacles.  There may be a problem to solve which will lead to personal growth.  You will have the mental focus to make new plans, develop new strategies and commit to effective action.  A new truth will occur to you.  You will understand something in a new way.  You may gain a fresh perspective that is clear and true.  This might be an opportunity to cut away what is unnecessary and leave it behind.  This is an opportunity and a necessity to do the right thing.  Like all Aces, the opportunity must be grasped in order to develop.

Tarot Contemplation – The Hanged Man

Hawaiian_Tarot_HangedMan_12

You are at another crossroads because you’re leveling up.  Choices … and indecision about wanting to do something, but not quite knowing what that something is, or how to go about accomplishing the task.  Clear your head.  Step back, BREATHE full breaths and relax those shoulders.  Allow your mind to clear with each out-breath to let go of that need to control life, situations, people and things.  REassess/REevaluate and then REdirect your energies … this is the best way to utilize the influences of Mercury REtrograde to get you through this juncture.  REmove notions of self-fulfilling prophecies and pay attention to how you allow yourself to say or think about your life.  Those prophecies ought to be about REnewal and bear some REsemblance to the life you really wish to be.
