Monthly Challenge: Lionharts’ Light My Fire Tarot Challenge: Days 7, 8, 9 and 10

On By HeatherIn Monthly challengeLeave a comment

I DID IT AGAIN, I’M SORRY THIS MONTH IS A LITTLE INSANE.

I would like to promise you that the next month of May will be better. That is a lie.It will probably be worse.

Anyway, here’s wonderwall.

Day 7: How can I harness my energy to fuel my creativity and pursue my passions?

Card: 6 of Vessels (6 of cups): Look back on memories, turn back the clock and remember the good times of the past. Look at how I’ve harnessed my energy in the past and use it in a similar way- I always used to dive deep into creativity and express myself through writing when I was a kid, so maybe this is something I should look back into.

Day 8: What can focusing on my passions do for me?

Card: Ace of Wands: It can give me new ideas, new thoughts, and new ways of expressing myself. I think it can also give me a chance to cleanse myself- sweep away the cobwebs. It can give me a way of opening up the world around me- unlocking my community. For me, I think this is telling me that by focusing my energy on the new things happening around me, I can have a fresh start.

Day 9: What steps am I guided to take to further awaken my inner fire?

Card: 10 of coins Rx (10 of pentacles reversed): Avoid spending money? Maybe? Or spend money but be careful and watch out for overspending? Taking in what I have right now, and enjoying the journey I’m on. Making the most out of what I have in my power at the moment. Ok, I can do that!

Day 10: How can I cultivate a sense of adventure in my life?

Card: The Crow and Dogwood: Intelligence: Solving the problems that exist in my life and believing in myself. Try and find unique and interesting ways of solving problems and look for the shiny, interesting things happening in life- find them and latch onto them.

The decks used today are The Transient Light Tarot, and Woodland Wardens Oracle cards. They’re both awesome, affordable, and available at a tarot website or shop near you! 🙂

Happy Readings 💛💛

monthly challenge: Lionharts’ WanderLust: Day 3 and Day 4

Tardy to the party for day 3 (sorry) I’m going to combine those mofos together.

And also? I am not very good at tarot photography it turns out. I am not bad at photography generally, but I am terribly out of practice. This is less than ideal. I know. I’m sorry. Hopefully my photos get better!

Today I’ll be using an oracle deck as well. Oracle decks aren’t the same as tarot decks- they have no set number of cards, or set imagery that they should cover. They mean whatever the creator wants them to mean (and usually they come with a little book to explain what they mean). They can be used on their own, with tarot decks and tarot spreads, or a mixture of both- there’s no wrong way to use oracle cards! Now! Onto the prompt:

Day 3: What part of me and I encouraged to show, express or share (more)?

Cards pulled: Strength reversed (Rx), The Empress, and 4 of wands Rx.

For me, this reading means I should be proud of my current physical transformations* because I’ve managed to stay the course and not falter on my goals. I’m beginning to feel tired, and I don’t really want to do it any more, and I think this reading wants me to be more self-confident and proud of what I’ve achieved, so I can continue!

The deck used here is The Modern Witch Tarot– one of my firsts and one of my favourites (and in my opinion: one of the few mass market decks with decent quality card stock for not a billion dollars but whatever). Highly recommend this deck: female-centred, traditional RWS-based deck for those on a budget.

Day 4: Where am I to use my instincts and follow my intuition? Why is this important for me?

Cards pulled: The Duck and Chrysanthemum (Luck), The Hare and the Oak (new opportunities), The Hound and Pear (loyalty).

Hmm… I keep getting cards about new opportunities lately- and choices, they seem to be following me and I’m really not sure why because I thought I knew everything on the go at the moment. I think this reading is telling me that I need to keep my eyes open and follow my instinct when it comes to new opportunities and lucky chances (maybe I should be buying lotto tickets, lol). Loyalty could be why this is important to me- maybe it’s telling me that I should follow my intuition when it comes to the new happenings in my life and that the loyal lovelies in my life will have my back, no matter what.

The deck used here is an oracle deck! Very popular at the moment, it’s Woodland Wardens– a series of animal and plant pairings and a cute little guide book to go with them.

What do you think? What cards did you pull today? Let me know in the comments!

Happy readings 💛💛

*I’ve been trying to lose weight, as I’m quite heavy, and it’s at the point where it’s bad for my health, bad for my back, bad for the longevity of my mattress, etc. I would like to be able to climb a flight of stairs and not feel winded, and I would like to feel comfortable flying economy- not like I’ve been crow-bared in and out of the seat. I’ve been at it since October, and I’ve lost just about 22lbs (the bigger thing is, I’ve stuck to my eating plan, something I’ve never been able to do before).
