Weekly Reading August 9-15, 2015 -- Going Back to Basics with My Classic Rider-Waite Deck

Hello there, thank you for joining me for another weekly reading! I felt strongly called to go back to basics with my classic and inscrutable Rider-Waite deck this week and as usual my intuition was rewarded with a very powerful message.

We could encounter difficult people or a difficult situation this week. Whether it is work-related or whether it regards personal relationships, we are likely to encounter bickering, negativity, people's egos getting in the way and everyone trying to convince you that their opinion is right and you should follow their lead. It's very important for you to stand up for yourself and speak your mind but it's even more important for you to come from a place of calm and serenity when you do so, as symbolized by the Four of Swords.

The Four of Swords has always been one of my favourite cards in the Rider-Waite tarot. It evokes such peace and restfulness of mind. This is essential when dealing with people who are all riled up and invested in their own agendas. In order to deal with them in the most effective way you need to come from a place of total calm and self assurance. That way even if they still don't listen to you or continue to act chaotically it has no effect on your peace of mind.

If people challenge you or try and joust with you this week, take a deep breath and smile. Go to your peaceful place. No need to make war ... and realizing this means you will always walk away from any battle intact and unscarred.

Have a wonderful week!

Weekly Reading -- July 26-August 1, 2015 -- Simply Deep Tarot

Get your fans and air conditioners ready because this week is all about fire and passion! All of our cards this week are Wands cards which signify creativity, passion, inspiration, sexual energy and the drive to express yourself.

We have two reversals but we also have the incredibly strong support of the King of Wands, either externally or within ourselves. It is definitely possible to turn the reversals upright and channel their positive energy if we can embrace his confidence, ambition, and dynamism. The King of Wands is a huge achiever. He gets out and DOES things and captures everyone's attention and admiration while he does it. He is not afraid to be seen and to pursue his desires.

It's time to bold and take a chance with an idea. Don't be afraid to shine and don't allow others to steal your light from you. Be the King of Wands ... go out and get whatever it is you want.

Have fun with this energy this week!

Weekly Reading -- December 1-7, 2014

This week is a combination of fiery energy, inspiration, and creativity and a peaceful groundedness by the end of the week. It's a nice mixture, starting off powerfully and ending in a relaxed, contented way -- the perfect start to our weekend.

We start off the week with a surge of vitality and energy, a very powerful focus. Either we have a very specific goal in mind or we are just raring to go with some kind of idea. We are literally busting with enthusiasm. By the middle of the week we may come to realize how satisfying it can be to work with others, especially when it comes to a common goal. We all have our own unique gifts to bring to the table but others have their own input to offer as well. Be cooperative, not combative. By the end of the week we feel stable and satisfied. It's the perfect time to enjoy who we are and what we do.

Enjoy this very productive, satisfying week!
