The Ten of Cups Tarot card is all about enjoying a happy home life and expressing your love and appreciation for your romantic partner, family, friends and pets. You may feel a sudden outpouring of happy, loving energy today – don’t ignore it! Share it.
If you are in a relationship, spend time today really enjoying it. Notice your partners positive qualities and find a way to let them know how much you enjoy their company. Spend time connecting with each other and talking about your day. If you are single, you can express this kind of appreciation to your family, friends and pets.
The key message with the Ten of Cups is to be playful in life. Have fun with those you live with and share time with – don’t take relationships too seriously – spend time laughing and enjoying the comfort and ease that comes with having a happy home.
The Queen of Cups Tarot card, this one is from the Paulina Tarot, comes today to remind you that your dreams are waiting patiently inside of you, wanting to come out!
If you often find yourself wondering if something is possible, the Queen of Cups would tell you that you need not wonder if, but how you can bring something into reality.
All possibilities are already inside of you. It’s up to you to decide which ones you are going to “give birth to” or manifest. It is a matter of opening your mind to what you believe is possible and then consciously aligning yourself with your dream.
Life Coaching Activity
Here is a fun activity to help you get started on mapping out your dreams and creating realistic pathways and inroads in your life to help you get there! For this you will need: colored pens and a large piece of paper (or two regular sized sheets of paper taped together to form a long, rectangular piece).
On the left side of your sheet of paper, write a vertical list of what elements make up your life right now. This could be your job, daily activities, hobbies – basically what you do in an average week. My Life Now:
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
On the far right side of the paper you write your dreams. You can be totally free and creative here – you don’t need to be realistic. Just list the elements of your ideal life! Sometimes it can be fun to draw little pictures beside each dream. My Dreams….
__________________________

In the center of the paper, draw a big heart (or globe) in this you will brainstorm all your positive qualities– your gifts, talents, learned skills, likeable traits, etc.
Now, in the space between the heart and your dreams, write down how you would like your life to be like one year from now. You should be somewhat realistic here – only write down things that you believe will be achievable in one year. My Life in One Year:
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
In the space between your life now and the heart, write down 5 small steps you will take in the next couple of months in order to move closer to your one year goal. Underneath this, make a list of all the people that will help you on your path (such as friends, teachers, mentors, family).
You can put this up on your wall or fridge, or tuck it away and peek at it every now and then. You will surprised how quickly some of your goals manifest after writing them down like this!
Judgement is the Tarot card for today and it is from the Paulina Tarot deck. The Judgement Tarot card meaning has so many layers to it, but the main theme is rebirth and reinventing the Self.
Today is your chance to really step into a new way of being, living and creating. The symbolism in this Paulina Tarot card makes me think of the Goddess and feminine energy – as the trees in this card are shaped in an hourglass figure. This also makes me think of time!
Let go of your obsession with time today – or even just notice your fixation on time. This will pull you deeper into the present moment and give you a stronger sense of appreciation for what is, helping you connect to the earth on a much more profound level than before.
The more you are able to let go of the illusion of time and embrace the feminine cycles of birth, death and rebirth that are inherent in everything, the more quickly you will ascend, rising up past illusions and experiencing life in a whole new way!
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.

This weekend is the perfect time to study or explore something that interests you! Take a workshop, try a new craft, experiment with a new mode of artistic expression or read an engaging how-to book. Whatever you do, this weekend is all about learning new skills and doing what excites you.
The owl in this card suggests that your true wisdom can be accessed when you fully engage yourself in what you love to do. Particularly when you are feeling playful and joyous. We often think that “wisdom” and “playfulness” don’t really go together, but here in this Ace of Wands, they do!
I get the sense that gardening will be an important part of this weekend for many of you, as will be spending time in nature and watching birds and other critters go about their day. Be on the lookout for owls this weekend….
You are on the cusp of a new beginning and about to come into your own wisdom and see things with a fresh set of eyes. Keep an open mind and a playful attitude!
