Energy Shift

Feeling stifled and unmotivated, I pulled Biddy Tarot's Energy Shifting Tarot Spread to see what shakes loose. This spread is read clockwise from the 3 o'clock position.

Card 1: Page of Pentacles - Pages generally represent an inexperienced and receptive personality. With the financial nature of pentacles, it can mean a new financial venture. A startup, if you will. Manifesting creative energy into new pursuits, learning new skills, setting the ground work for success. A perfect starting point for the two new hobbies I want to learn and eventually draw income from! 

Card 2: King of Swords, Reversed - Kings are normally experienced and active personality types, but notice it's in reverse, which means it's all internal wisdom, power, and authority. It shows my unwavering belief in myself - very encouraging! Alas, it also indicates a lack of clarity about what to do next, and spending too much energy worrying about making the wrong decision. Yep, yep, yep. We've seen that already this week.

Card 3: Two of Pentacles, Reversed - Disorganization! Reprioritization! This card is telling me to get organized and more structured. Admittedly, this card fits for the entire duration of my life; I am chronic procrastinator, and I get things done in order of interest level so I'm usually playing whack-a-mole with all the crap I have to do and don't really want to. I am easily and frequently distracted. If I want to succeed, I'm going to have to manage this better.

Card 4: Wheel of Fortune - What goes around, comes around. The wheel continues to turn, and something new is coming around. I am approaching yet another turning point. Maybe new opportunities (pointing back to Card 1)? Now is the time to be flexible, open to growth, and allow the universe to work its magic.

After seeing these themes of indecisiveness and lack of organization, I went back to my planning notes. I wrote down my visualizations of my ideal life - regardless of whether it's "realistic" at the present. I set down a clear plan of actions; what needs doing first, second, etc., to meet just one goal. Once I've checked off those tasks, I will move on to the next goal. In this way I will shift my mental energy into action!

Card of the Day: Six of Pentacles

Giving, receiving, sharing. I couldn't really relate to this card as I'm not typically the philanthropic type, and I'm also not on the other end of the balance needing charity. Looking at the Biddy Tarot definition, the author pulls out an application for relationships that is a perfect fit: "...If you are in a relationship, the Six of Pentacles can suggest that one partner is dependent on the other to provide most of the money, love or energy for the relationship to keep going... The relationship is, therefore, unequal; however, both partners have mutually agreed to this arrangement to ensure stability." My husband was already laid off for a couple weeks when the COVID-19 pandemic began. There were no jobs all winter or spring, but he had unemployment, and the CARES Act provided enough supplemental income to keep going as normal as possible. I pulled this card the the last week of hubbin's unemployment benefits, and as of yet, we don't know if he is eligi...

Death of a Friend

 A boyfriend from high school died a couple years ago and I only just found out. For the last several years he would post on FB for his sobriety anniversary and I hadn’t seen anything so I went to his profile and saw… “heavenly birthday” greetings from last year?!?!  No announcement on his profile, no obit, not even an open post on his wife’s, kids’, mom’s, or brother’s pages. I did some internet sleuthing and all I found was a rejected bankruptcy filing from 2 years ago for $3000 of debt. His last profile pic he looked sick so he could have had liver issues, cancer, anything.  I was deeply infatuated with this dude and am feeling really gutted. I decided to pull a mini-cross spread to get some intuitive insight but it’s really not comforting 😢 6 card mini cross Mystic Cats Tarot  1: subject/person King of Cups Rv Prone to moodiness or depression but emotionally self-aware.  Yep.  2: obstacle/challenge Judgement  Higher calling, life purpose, letting ...

Not Immediately Clear Does Not Mean Wrong Part I

 I have pulled two readings for myself in the last month that just don't make sense, and I could not figure out what the lesson, or how to apply it to my life.  The first was this one from Dec 3: First of all, I don't even remember the question, but I think actually that will help me get clarity. I will often pull a spread that has nothing to do with what I'm after, but still makes sense in some other aspect of my life that actually has higher priority.  9 Pentacles Rev: Self-worth, over-investment in work, hustling 7 Pentacles: Long-term view, sustainable results, perseverance, investment 8 Cups: Disappointment, abandonment, withdrawal, escapism At first I could see how being obsessed with work and material gain can lead to disappointment and giving up, but I was not sure how it fit with me right now. In the two jobs previous to this I definitely hustled my ass off and was  not  rewarded fairly. I got major burnout. Yes I was disappointed and I quit both jobs....
