Angel Tarot Card for Sat & Sun ~ Nine of Fire

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

September 2012 / /

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.

Seven of Pentacles ~ Daily Tarot Card for Tuesday

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.

Ten of Pentacles ~ Tarot Card for Friday

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)

Let Go of Stress! ~ Oracle Reading for Thursday

Guidance Dogs Oracle Cards by Kirsten Laulainen

Today is a great day to let go of any stress that is effecting you. Actually, every day is a good day to do this! One of the best ways to do this is to look to animals for guidance.

Try looking at your problem or stressful issue through the eyes of your dog or cat. This will probably make you laugh, as you won’t be able to imagine your dog getting all worked up about a deadline or what someone thinks of him.

So if you feel yourself start to stress out about something, stop and ask yourself what your cat would do in this situation. And take a few deep breaths!

Ten of Pentacles ~ Tarot Reading for Wednesday

Intuitive Tarot by Cilla Conway

Today’s daily tarot card is Ten of Pentacles (or Ten of Discs) from the Intuitive Tarot. The message I get from this card is this:  collaboration is great, but don’t sacrifice your individuality in order to be more acceptable to the group.

The Ten of Pentacles speaks of our strength in numbers and the power of connecting and collaborating with others. You may get the chance to be a vital aspect of a group this week.

While it is truly amazing what we can accomplish when we pool our resources and minds together, there is a downside to the Ten of Pentacles…

Sometimes we may feel that in order to be accepted by a group – whether its social or business related – we must dial ourselves down so we harmonize more easily with others. This can make our group interactions feel inauthentic and stressful. Be sure that the group you join values your individual, unique talents and doesn’t demand that you change yourself to fit in.

The Moon ~ Tarot Card for Tuesday

The Cosmic Tarot by Norbert Losche

Today is a good day to rest, meditate, go within and wait things out. The Moon tarot card suggests that if you are tying to make a decision, wait until there is more information.

There is a time for action and being outgoing and a time for stillness and quiet reflection. Today is a time for quiet. Instead of listening to the many voices of those around you, tune into the soft, inner voice of your intuition.

The Moon tarot card also symbolizes the subconscious and dreams. What themes have been showing up in your dreams lately? This can be a powerful key to unlocking your subconscious issues and drives.

Happy Monday! Today’s oracle card, A New Dawn, emphasizes new beginnings and fresh starts. The message on the card reads “The worst is now behind you, and positive new experiences are on the horizon.”

New opportunities may present themselves today, bringing you excitement and a chance to grow into your talents. Take a relaxed approach and watch as things unfold before you. You really don’t have to do too much right now – everything is unfolding exactly as it should.

As you step into this new era of your life, ask yourself what you are most excited about – what are you looking forward to the most? Doing this can really help draw positive experiences toward you.

This oracle card suggests that moving forward, you will have more opportunities to use your innate, natural talents which bring clarity about life path issues. What innate skills do you have that you would like to use more often? What “gifts” are you wanting to share with others?

Guidance Dogs Oracle Cards by Kirsten Laulainen

This weekend, look around you and truly appreciate the beauty that is present in your life. What is beautiful about your home? What is beautiful about the area you live in? Really enjoy these things this weekend!

Today’s oracle card reading suggests that you might want to do one or two small things this weekend to enhance the beauty of your surroundings. Light some pretty candles, pick fresh flowers, buy a new plant, or hang a new picture. Sometimes its the little things that make a big difference.

When your environment is beautiful, you will enhance your energy and personal vibration. When your mood is lifted, you will find it easier to appreciate the simple pleasures in life and as a result feel more spiritually connected.

Likewise, unattractive things in our environment can drag our energy down. Look around your home and get rid of anything that makes you cringe when you look at it. For me, this is the cardboard box and old newspapers sitting in my hallway! Today’s oracle card reading suggest that once you get rid of the things that look like crap, you will change the overall energy of your home.
