2 Card Draw Temperance - A good day to find the middle ground and create balance in our lives. Blend the spiritual side with the material side to create harmony. Gather what you need together to find the perfect mix to create what you want. Sea Nymph - is a female nature deity of the sea, or female spirit of sea waters and they symbolized everything that is beautiful and kind about the sea. Wheel of Fortune - We are always evolving as we turn on the Wheel. Things never really end, they just start over in a new cycle. We risk repeating the same mistakes if we don't learn from them the first time around, so be aware of what is happening and learn the lessons before the wheel comes around again. You have the power to alter your fate and transform yourself! Inquisitor - a person charged with eliminating heresy and finding heretics who would probably cause problems for the church. I can't help but think of Monty Python's song, "The Inquisition, what a show, The Inquisition, here we go, We know you're wishing, That we'd go away, But the Inquisition's here and it's here to stay " - as a whole, not a fun group of people to hang out with. So today, take charge and question yourself about all the things you have learned in the past and things you want to take forward into the future. Stay balanced and create harmony in your life by integrating the lessons you need and getting rid of the things you don't need to carry any longer. Be firm, but you know, don't flog yourself here. Be kind with your emotions!

2 Card Draw Five of Cups - So many emotions being tossed to and fro and it can be hard to try and figure out what we want to keep and what to let go of. But we need to move on. Storm tossed waves might make us seasick if we continue to wallow in sadness. Better to let go of the waves and grab hold of some dry land. Mermaid - *earworm warning* Wouldn't I love, love to explore that shore up above? Out of the sea, wish I could be part of that world..." Our Little Mermaid was willing to give up her fins and her voice for love. In the movie it ended ok, not so much in the book. Decide what you are willing to part with. Follow your heart and your path and once you decide on a course of action - go with all your heart. The Devil - So much imbalance can cause addiction, obsession and our own imprisonment. But in this case, WE can do something about it. Decide what you really need to let go of because you have the power to liberate yourself and walk freely. Demon - A supernatural and often malevolent being that can cause some serious oppression and may often need to be removed - forcibly - by exorcism, depending on what demon you have on your back. But they can be removed when you realize you no longer want to carry that weight. So today, keep an eye on the emotional upheavals in your life. You may need to decide that something needs to go and instead of being sad about it, turn and look at what awaits you. Move forward with love. You have the power to liberate yourself, stand tall and leave the baggage behind you. Daily Mindfulness
2 card Draw The Tower - Things are going to happen that are out of your control. This is a dramatic bolt out of the blue that will clear out the things that need to go. You will make space for newer and better things to enter. It may seem harsh and cause great upheavals in your life, but try to look at this event in a positive light if you can. Things will work out even if it seems all is chaos. Gargoyle -These creatures are said to frighten off evil spirits and protect those that it guards, such as a church, from any evil or harmful spirits. The Lovers - While this can relate to romantic love, it can also represent loving partnerships and commitments of all kinds. The relationships with balance and equality - to unify different forces and bring them together. You attract the qualities that you put out into the world - so be sure to put forth your best self! Succubus - a demon in female form, that appears in dreams and takes the form of a woman in order to seduce men, usually through sexual activity... no balance and equality here. So today, things may be happening quickly and brutally but these things need to happen. It will clear out the things in your life that have been holding you back. Try to face these events with balance and a loving heart. Send out positive vibes so you get positive energy back - leave your inner succubus at home today. Daily Mindfulness
2 card Draw Wow - look at all that lovely fiery energy! The Sun: All is well in the land of you. There is bright light and joy. Share that light and love with others - Life is meant to be fun - so enjoy it! Phoenix - Associated with the Sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor. The old dies away so the new can be reborn. Judgement - the looking back over my life and let's see what can be improved card. We should always be evolving and moving forward on our paths, awakening and transforming ourselves. Decide what works and let go of what doesn't as we move along the way. Cerberus - the Hell Hound that guards the gates to the Underworld so no one escapes. He also has 3 heads. Hagrid had one named Fluffy that kept watch over the entrance to the Sorcerer's Stone. But all you had to do was play him a bit o' music and he fell asleep. So today, grab all that lovely, creative, fiery energy and let your sun shine on everything. Always look to evolve and transform yourself as you learn and try new things on your path. And if you start feeling a tad on the cranky side, play a bit o' music and let those negative energies slip away. Daily Mindfulness
2 card - Situation/Challenge Situation - Five of Pentacles - Being able to sustain ourselves, or not sustain as the case may be. Is this true lacking? Or are we sort of wallowing in our misery and not really wanting to accept help - because help is there. We just need to see it and honor it. We can change our paths, get out of our ruts and move forward, but sometimes we need help doing it. Don't be too proud to accept this help. There will come a time when someone is going to need our help so knowing how that feels, will help us share what we have. Shaman -is someone who is regarded as having access to, and influence in, the world of benevolent and malevolent spirits, who typically enters into a trance state during a ritual, and practices divination and healing. Can supply insight and medicine to those in need. Challenge - Four of Wands - It's a party now! Time to celebrate life and all of the joys it brings with our friends and family. There is a bounty to be enjoyed and shared with all those who helped bring it to life so enjoy! Fairy -Early modern fairies does not derive from a single origin; the term is a conflation of disparate elements from various sources, influenced by literature and speculation. But we have seen them in stories and movies and for the most part they like to have fun. Some of them can be a wee mischievous and tricksy, but on the whole they like to enjoy life. So today, take a good look at life and how you are interacting with it. Are you needing something but just don't want to ask for help? Channel you inner Shaman and accept the help. Enjoy what life has for you and it does have a bounty, if you only see it and ask for it. Daily Mindfulness
2 card - Situation/Challenge This was neat - each night I choose a card(s) to take those attributes into my dreams with me. I chose the Empress and the Magician last night. This morning - I pulled the Empress! I like that kind of synchronicity! Situation - The Empress - the Love Goddess - all facets of love - she loves the sensual textures of life and has a great compassion for all things. She rules over nature with ease and comfort and nurtures passion, friendships and romance. She brings abundance effortlessly. Kali - a Hindu Goddess - destroyer of evil forces and worshipped by devotional movements and tantric sects variously as the Divine Mother and Divine Protector. Challenge - Two of Cups - Magnetic attraction, love, communication between two people are deeper and more open. Heartfelt connections. Keep you heart open to connect meaningfully with others. Unicorn- a creature that has been described as an animal with a single large, pointed, spiraling horn projecting from its forehead. They live in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts castle and are creatures of pureness, beauty, love and magical abilities. Its blood can keep you alive and was slain by Whatshisname in order to come back to full power. Tsk Tsk So today, Be open to the sensual facets of life. Show compassion and love to all things and revel in this thing called life. The challenge is to keep your heart open so that you can connect meaningfully to others, don't close yourself off, you never know what you might miss if you do. Daily Mindfulness
2 card - Situation/Challenge Situation - Three of Pentacles: Teamwork and cooperation is where we need to look today. There is much harmony in the connections we have with working with others. Sometimes we need a little help with what we want to accomplish and today is a great day to find like minded others who can help you forward. All together, you can create beautiful things. Dwarf -Heigh Ho - It's off to work we go (you are so welcome for the earworm) Remember the 7 who worked together all day and managed to keep an eye on Snow White as well - they all cooperated and got stuffs done and even managed a few songs in the process! Challenge - Knight of Swords - Forward full speed ahead. This is a courageous defending and a peaceful warrior. Even if the face of fear, will continue forward anyway. Remember, swords are aligned with our thoughts - so don't let them take control of you. You are in control of them! Barbarian - I never much got in to the Conan thing but he was a highly skilled warrior, knew his way around a sword and was a talented commander, tactician, and strategist, as well as a born leader. Brave and got things done! So today, I think is more a day of planning and working nicely with others. Cooperation and harmony will move you forward - try leaving your Inner Conan at home - he is great to have around but today is not the day to rush forward on your own. Daily Mindfulness
2 card - Situation/Challenge Situation - Nine of Wands - There is a wariness here. Things have happened in the past and you are kinda wondering if they might happen again. But you got this! You made it already and stuff happens and it will happen again. You have what you need already to deal with whatever comes up. Pumpkinhead - I am rusty with my 80s horror movies but I did see this one! Bad things happen to this guys son and when he wants revenge he has to resurrect a corpse, which rises as a gigantic, demony monster named Pumpkinhead. Many bad things happen and then I think they set it on fire along with the guy who started all this and the witch from the beginning of the movie buries him again as the new Pumpkinhead. Yeah, 80s horror movies rocked LOL Challenge - Ace of Cups - A happy yes from the Universe card. An emotional start to something - new love or other spiritual opportunities. Your heart will be filled in a deep way for you so be sure to leave your heart open and willing to receive. Pay attention to your intuition as well. Giant Whale - I am going with the Star Whale on Dr. Who. This was a very caring and loving creature who helped guide people through space. But after awhile it was misunderstood and abused and people did horrible things to it until Dr Who and Amy came to save it. This giant whale only wanted to love and help people as she saw them as her children. And she still wanted to help even after all the pain they caused her because she couldn't bare to see her children in distress. So today, you may be tired and weary and wondering if something is going to happen... again. But don't look at everything with a sketchy side-eye. Remember that you have all you need to take care of whatever comes up in your life. Leave your heart open and be willing to receive love when it comes to help you. Bad things can happen - and freaky raised from the dead things can try to work their way into your life - but you have an inner Star Whale that loves and cares for you. Don't forget that. Daily Mindfulness
2 card - Situation/Challenge We have a whole lot of squirming things going on today *shudder* Situation: Ace of Swords -This is the Universe saying YES today. Clear communication is key - use your mind to solve any problems that arise - try to use impartial clarity and rationality today. Quezalcoatl - an Aztec sky and creator god often referred to as The Feathered Serpent . He was also the patron god of the Aztec priesthood, of learning and knowledge. Quezalcóatl became the god of the morning and evening star, and his temple was the centre of ceremonial life in Tula. Also a Wind God of learning, writing and books. Challenge - Eight of Wands - Things are flying quickly now. Gather your thoughts and resources and aim them in the direction you want them to go. If things are going well for you, they will speed up and continue in that way - if things are starting to go pear shaped, be aware and try to batten down the hatches before it gets to speedy. Hydra - sort of a creepy water monster with poisonous breath and blood so virulent that even its scent was deadly. It also had a lot of heads. Way too many heads. And if it lost one, it would grow back 2 in it's place. *shudder* So today, think clearly and rationally, don't let things go so out of hand that you have heads falling off and more heads are replacing the original heads only you don't even like those heads and you can't stop them once they start. It will be a mess. Best to be clear and have things planned well so when things speed up, they go just the way you need them too. No extra messy heads needed! Daily Mindfulness
2 card draw Situation/Challenge Situation- Two of Wands - I like this one, it's a nice dream big and have visions of how you want your future to be kind of card. And then taking that vision and making it happen. Cyclops - Based on most descriptions, they were gigantic and strong beings with a single eye in the middle of their foreheads. They excelled at metalwork and eventually ended up helping Hephaestus, whose workshop was supposed to be in the heart of the volcanic mountain Etna. They were also said to have forged Zeus's famous thunderbolt. Challenge - Page of Wands - Hmm, wand and wand here - this wand is our intrepid explorer. He is just setting off and is very enthusiastic about whatever happens along the way. He has spirit and passion and loves new things to see and do. Necromancer -The practice of communication with the dead by summoning their spirit or raising them bodily for divination to see the future or learn hidden knowledge. And our Necromancer sure does seem to be quite enthusiastic about his task there. So today, while we have two very creative wands here, perhaps we need to take care to not get so overly into what we are attempting that we inadvertently dig up something that is better left undisturbed for now. Maybe it would be best to stick to the home forge making things happily in our own little nook and save the grave robbing sort of thing for a later date. |
