Hello, Heartbeats! This week’s tarot and oracle reading encourages us to get ready for the holidays – really! Our divination tools are the Original Rider Waite Tarot Deck, the Moonology Oracle Cards, and the beautiful Nature’s Whispers deck – details at the bottom of the post. Let’s see what cards showed up! 🃏
Queen of Pentacles is a pragmatic feminine force, which means she is grounded and connected to nature and its rhythms. This queen knows, trusts, and depends on the change of seasons, and she thrives in all of them.
In this reading, the Queen of Pentacles follows The Tower, suggesting that some false foundations have been destroyed, but only to bring us down to earth – stable, nourishing, generous earth. Sometimes, grandiose constructions only distract and detach us from the essential practical aspects of life, and it becomes so emotionally and mentally unhealthy that Divine intervention is necessary. But we needn’t worry about that right now, because it’s behind us.
Thinking that the winter holidays are upon us, The Moon energy is quite evocative. It’s that time of year when we detach a little from the mundane, and our attention is usually guided by Christmas lights 🎄 into memories, fantasy, and festive cheer. The Moon also speaks of cyclicity, the underlying theme of this week’s reading.
The first of the two oracle cards is none other than the Full Moon in Aries. This particular full moon is highly charged and climactic. It represents forceful willpower, unapologetic self-expression, assertiveness, fiery emotions such as passion and anger. This energy can be negative if it ignores and overrides other people, but it can also bring a surge of vitality where such a boost is needed – think slow projects that should be finished before the end of the year, for instance. Also, this level of intensity is not sustainable; it peaks, and then it declines.
But rest assured by… the Assurance card 😉 that everything is balanced. This oracle card reminds me of the Temperance in tarot – it evokes that same harmonious union of elements in just the right proportions, in perfect timing and a healthy rhythm.
It’s good energy for a satisfying Christmas gift shopping spree, especially if we can make our holiday enthusiasm and practicality work together, preventing overspending or compulsive purchases. 🛍🎁💸
Enjoy every step of the holiday season, because, as we know, it doesn’t last long. Keep up to the rhythm of love!
❤️
