Goddess Guidance Oracle Card for Tuesday ~ Kali

Goddess Guidance Oracle Cards by Doreen Virtue

Goddess Kali comes to us in today’s goddess guidance oracle reading with the theme of endings and beginnings. Her message is: “The old must be released so that the new can enter.”

A cycle or phase in your life is coming to an end and it is time to start something new and embrace the change. It is normal to fear change, but Kali suggests that you relish the chaos – after all, true freedom means constant change! When nothing changes, we become stagnant and stuck.

Today’s goddess guidance oracle also reminds us that working with the cycles of the moon is a powerful way to work with change and not against it. As the moon waxes, focus on what you would like to bring into your life and as it wanes, focus on what you would like to let go of or get rid of. Kali reminds us that we are always in a state of transformation – forever changing, forever growing….

Tarot Reading for Monday ~ Fighting (Osho Zen)

Osho Zen Tarot by Ma Deva Padma

Today’s Tarot card is “Fighting” (Knight of Air) from the Osho Zen Tarot deck. His message is that all outer conflict that we experience is really just our inner conflict expressing itself.

When we have inner conflict and reject any parts of ourselves, we project it outward and it manifests in the form of disliking others and having minor and major squabbles. If you notice yourself getting triggered by someone else’s behavior today, take a moment to check in with yourself to see what it is that is bothering you so much.

This Osho Zen Tarot card also suggests that often, the fighting is mostly in our heads. Our ego/mind is very defensive and easily feels threatened and can sometimes seek conflict simply to make itself feel stronger and more right. Of course, this is usually done subconsciously, so we aren’t always aware of what we are doing.

Today you will have an opportunity to catch your mind in its egoic thinking – whenever you feel a sense of fear, diminishment or the need to be right, you will know that this is the ego in action. This is most likely come up when you are interacting with someone and trying to communicate your point of view.

Remind yourself that it is safe to “take off the armor” when communicating with others. This requires being genuine about what you are feeling and what you are needing from that person. This might make you feel vulnerable, but there will be no true communication until this happens!

Angel Tarot Card for Sat & Sun ~ Nine of Fire

Angel Tarot Cards by Doreen Virtue

The Angel Tarot card for this weekend is Nine of Fire (also Nine of Wands in a regular tarot deck), and this card’s message is: “Don’t give up. Protect that which you’ve created. Have courage and believe in yourself.”

I feel like this message is very similar to that of the Seven of Pentacles reading I gave on Tuesday. When you encounter obstacles, stress or even just a lack of incentive, it is important to remind yourself of your main goal and purpose in doing the work that you do.

You are right on the edge of something, so don’t give up! It’s time to channel your fiery, fiesty side and stand up for what you believe in. What you have set out to do is important and it is worth fighting for. If you feel tired at the thought of doing this, ask for help from the many people that support you. You don’t have to do it all by yourself.

The Nine of Fire Angel Tarot card is here to let you know that you have the strength, passion and resources to move forward with your goals. You will be able to use any setbacks or obstacles as a way of growing and propelling yourself forward.

Oracle Card Reading for Friday ~ Self-Worth

Guidance Dogs Oracle Cards by Kirsten Laulainen

Today’s oracle card reading is all about self-worth, appropriately represented by the Poodle! Do whatever you need to do today to feel good about yourself. This could include some kind of physical pampering, like a trip to the spa, or something deeper.

Taking care of your body involves having a deep respect and reverence for it. Grooming rituals can often be a good time to think about your body in a way that is caring and loving.

Treat yourself to a hot bath today, and put herbs like lavender and sage under the hot running water. Or paint your toenails a crazy colour. Of course, establishing a strong sense of self-worth is about more than just hot baths and nice toenails and today is a good time to reflect on your self-worth…

You can be most acutely aware of how high your sense of self-worth is when you are criticized by others. Think back to the last time someone criticized you. Did you feel personally attacked? Did you feel diminished and crushed or were you able to brush it off? Today’s oracle card reading reminds you that it’s natural to be effected by others behavior and attitudes, but that true self-worth is independent of others opinions.

Strength ~ Tarot Card for Thursday

The Intuitive Tarot by Cilla Conway

Today I drew the Strength Tarot card – one of my favourite cards!!! The message today is that it is okay to make friends with your animal nature and find the beauty in being strong without being forceful.

Don’t be afraid to take advantage of your primal gifts, particularly those of power and sexuality. The Strength Tarot card speaks to our sexual nature and its need for respect and control, minus the suppression.

Society has long held an innate fear of human sexuality and there seems to be a fear that if not suppressed and controlled, it could go crazy and destroy civilization. Many people feel this way about their own sexuality – that it could ruin their lives if allowed to go unchecked.

Today is a good day to rethink this assumption. Stepping into your own power and expanding your spiritual horizons involves developing a deep bond with your sexual self and shedding some of the long held guilt, fear and anxiety around sex.

Another message I get with this card is that you may need to be subtle, yet firm with someone today. Do not be afraid to be assertive – you will still come across as likeable if you communicate in a way that is open and positive. Be clear about your needs and expectations.

Oracle Card Reading for Wednesday ~ The Dragon’s Duel

wisdom-of-the-hidden-realms-oracle-cards
Wisdom of the Hidden Realms Oracle Cards by Collette Baron-Reid

I drew The Dragon’s Duel from the Wisdom of the Hidden Realms Oracle for today’s oracle card reading. This card has to do with inner conflict, morality and conscious choice.

Today you may experience the inner turmoil that results when your Ego and Higher Self battle it out! There are many ways this can show up in your daily life – for example, you may struggle with doing what you feel is best versus what your mind thinks you should do.

The Ego loves to be right, which the Higher Self (or Consciousness) couldn’t care less about! So you may feel torn between letting a long held dispute go and pursuing the argument to make your point.

When it comes to making decisions today and deciding how you will act, take the time to really check in with yourself. What actions or choices make you feel a sense of expansion? What actions and choices cause you to feel tense and contracted?

When you let your Higher Self guide you, a sense of freedom and ease will be present (even if you are doing something that scares you or feels a bit rebellious). Today’s oracle card reading reminds you that you always have the choice between aligning with Ego or Higher Self. Once you make that choice, all inner conflict will dissolve.

Seven of Pentacles ~ Daily Tarot Card for Tuesday

The Paulina Tarot by Paulina Cassidy

Today’s Tarot reading has brought up the Seven of Pentacles Tarot card, which is all about establishing patience and trust in your life.

Perhaps you are feeling frustrated today that things are not unfolding as quickly as you would like. Or maybe you are not seeing the results of your hard work just yet and you are doubting yourself just a bit.

At times like this it is helpful to think of a seed being planted in the earth. Many changes happen to the seed as it grows under the soil, but to the the observer it would appear as though nothing is happening. Until finally, it pushes up through the soil and grows into a beautiful plant!

The Seven of Pentacles is here to tell you that your goals and dreams are like this seed. Just because nothing major is happening just yet, it is not time to give up! Waiting can be difficult, but do not give up – nurture your dreams and have patience. Uncertainty is normal at this stage, but when you trust the process, you can ease your self doubt and enjoy this time of anticipation.

Daily Oracle Card for Monday ~ Integrity

Guidance Dogs Oracle Cards by Kirsten Laulainen

Today’s daily oracle card is Integrity, represented by the Australian Shepherd dog, reminding you of the importance of keeping your actions in line with your words and beliefs.

Living with integrity means that what you do, think and say are all very similar. You do what is important to you and and any observer can tell what is important to you based on your actions, deeds and creations.

If you don’t live with integrity, you will experience stress and inner conflict and it may be hard for you to really know what you want from life and what matters to you. In other words, you will feel lost on your path.

The strong message I get with this daily oracle card is that integrity means being true to yourself. Live according to your own rules and what you believe is right, not someonelses. This in itself isn’t always easy, but the more integrity you have, the more grounded and purposeful you will feel.

Just for fun, ask yourself the following questions:

  • Do my actions and creations express what is important to me?
  • Do I walk my talk? (Do I do what I say I will?)
  • Are my actions in line with my thoughts and feelings? Or do they sometimes differ?

Goddess Guidance Card for Sat & Sun

Goddess Guidance Oracle Cards by Doreen Virtue

This weekend’s Goddess Guidance card is Abundantia (prosperity). The message on this card says “The universe is pouring its abundance out to you. be open to receiving.”

This weekend you will have an easier time aligning with the flow of abundance. The universe is always broadcasting out different frequencies of abundance, all you need to do to receive is to resonate or vibrate at the same frequency.

Once you are able to tap into that energy, it will feel like syncronious events are lining up for you, having you meet the right people at the right times, as if opportunities, gifts and abundance are all just falling into your lap.

The key with this Goddess Guidance card is that you don’t have to try too hard or strive to get what you need and be “in the flow” of abundance. We are taught that you need to work hard to get what we want, but that just isn’t true according to this card. Instead, focus on raising your vibration so you emanate abundance. You can do this in a variety of ways:

  • Think about all the things in your life that you enjoy and are grateful for (make a list!)
  • Imagine what it would feel like to live in abundance and focus on feeling that way now
  • Draw a picture of yourself and surround it with words and images that illustrate what you would like to draw toward you.

A book on this topic that I really love is Ask and it is Given by Jerry and Esther Hicks.

Ten of Pentacles ~ Tarot Card for Friday

Shadowscapes Tarot

Today’s tarot card is Ten of Pentacles – twice in one week! You may recall that Wednesday’s card was also Ten of Pentacles, only from a different tarot deck.

I get a different feeling with this Ten of Pentacles, compared to the one on Wednesday. This card has an abundant, nurturing vibe and speaks of the importance of nurturing your goals and dreams as they are about to bear fruit.

It may feel like where you would like to be is so far off that you cannot see it clearly. However, it is closer than you think. Focus on nurturing your hopes and dreams – be gentle with them, don’t share them with others just yet. Give them a chance to grow and become strong and vibrant.

Soon you will be able to develop a brighter and clearer vision of your destination. You are about to end a particular phase and start a new one. Once this new phase is over, your dreams will feel much closer to you.

I am curious what you think the significance is of the Ten of Pentacle card coming up twice in the same week? (click on “leave a reply” at the end of this post to share your insights)
