Tarot for self care and self exploration. A place to learn, develop and explore tarot.
Card: 3 of cups (how fitting!)
The energy of Dionysus can be best welcomed into my life through reunion, partying, drinking with friends, and indulging in the warmth that both booze and friendship can bring. Yes. I’m on board.
Deck used: Morgan-Greer Tarot (small version)

Day 22: How can I break free from patterns that no longer serve me and hinder my growth?
Card: King of Cups: Tap into my abilities to control my emotions or seek out someone who uses their emotions as a catalyst to move forwards in life- a good therapist or a friend perhaps?
Day 23: What inner wisdom can I tap into to make empowered decisions for myself?
Card: Three of Cups: Get together with the girls to gather my thoughts and make a plan- two heads are better than one? Empathetic socially driven wisdom will help me make the right decisions for myself.
I’ve used a new (!!!) deck I’ve just got that I really, really like for this set. It’s called Creatures Tarot, and it’s by an amazing artist called Sara Kathleen. She’s amazing, and this deck is a gem. It smells beautifully of ink, reminding me of tattoos, and the cards have such a beautiful bounce that I’m not afraid of bending them. The illustrations are simple, and straightforward and her philosophies on making things attainable for others are awesome sauce. If you get a chance to check this deck out or pick it up in her shop, you won’t be disappointed!!!

Day 4: How can I best embrace and embody my carefree spirit in the present moment?
Card: The Wheel of Fortune Rx (reversed): What carefree spirit? LOL I need to reflect back on my past actions- maybe I can use them for inspiration. Remember times when I was more carefree and fun-loving. Embrace that moment.
Day 5: Where can I infuse more playfulness and curiosity in my approach to life?
Card: 3 of cups- this is my second three of cups within an hour lol- I guess I have to meet up with folks and party a bit more. Let my hair down. Worry less.
Day 6: What can I engage in to bring more joy into my life right now? Draw up to 3 cards.
Cards: 3 of Swords, Guardian (Queen) of Wands Rx, and 5 of cups: I’ve been hurt and suffered loss (who hasn’t), and those painful moments have caused me to limit what I can feel for others, how close I let them get, and how much I share with them. I believe that very few people can be trusted, and I need to look towards breaking out of that mentality and learning to forgive others and myself. I need to reestablish my sense of self, my sense of purpose and not remove boundaries but instead assess how those boundaries help and hinder me.
The deck used today is a bootlegged copy of the Spacious Tarot (a gift from someone who didn’t know it was a knock-off). I like the imagery in the Spacious Tarot, and I think if you’re on the hunt for human-free images, this is a good one!
Happy Readings! 💛💛

Day 1: What inner fire am I guided to ignite, nurture, and/or honour this month?
Card: 3 of cups: I should honour my connections to others, help myself grow and develop the relationships I already have, any new ones I’d like to create or build afresh. Maybe also indulging myself- treat yo self kinda vibes!
Day 2: Where do I need to take a bold step forward in my life?
Card: 3 of Pentacles Reversed: Hmmm teamwork- I don’t really work in a team though, so I’m not too sure about this card- Maybe I need to be bold and join a team, or work together with someone on a project of some sorts? It could be that the activities I’m doing at the moment are too boring, and don’t inspire passion, so perhaps I need to develop those? The branches of this tree on the card make me feel like it wants me to step out of my individualized life and make some new connections maybe.
Day 3: Draw a card and use its message to create a daily mantra for the month ahead.
Card: Judgment: lol: I trust myself. I am wise. I know what is best for me.
The deck used today was The Essential Tarot- I wouldn’t really recommend it, to be honest. The images aren’t always helpful- it veers more towards a pip deck (a deck with the minor cards as just the number of the symbol, so the 3 of pentacles you can just see 3 pentacles, etc), and I don’t find it super intuitive to read. It doesn’t feel like there was a tonne of thought put into its creation and some of the images (especially of the court cards and major arcana) don’t really guide you at all, or give you any help. It was available at a discount book outlet so I grabbed it, but I wouldn’t recommend you do the same. The card stock is good but a bit sticky, and it smells strongly of chemicals. It’s growing on me, but I don’t think I’ll use it much.
Happy Readings 💛💛
