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 -- January 5-11, 2015

Happy New Year! Thanks for joining me for another year of tarot readings.

Our first reading for 2015 starts out with some very nice energy with the Page of Pentacles. Pages are said to represent young people or people with childlike energy -- enthusiasm, optimism, curiosity. Pages have a willingness to learn but not a lot of experience. They can also be messengers. We could start this week and year with a new venture or a new idea. Perhaps you're looking for a new job, considering taking a course in school, or doing something you haven't done before. You could also receive a message concerning these things.

The Knight of Rods (or Wands) follows the Page which is a natural progression of the energy that started with the Page. This could indicate that we are not only willing to learn something new but that we have fully embraced it and are taking it on with a great deal of enthusiasm and determination.

By the weekend, the Seven of Rods (Wands) indicates that we could come in contact with someone who makes us feel that we have to defend ourselves or our ideas. Sometimes people in our lives get jealous or competitive when they see us approaching something with enthusiasm and excitement. They may try to knock us down. This could also be you second-guessing yourself and trying to talk yourself out of this new venture due to self-doubt and fear. Whichever scenario it is, outsider or yourself, don't allow this negative energy to throw you off and knock you off course. Stand your ground and don't allow other people (or yourself) to tarnish your enthusiasm and end your project before it even gets a proper start.

Thank you for visiting and wishing you a prosperous, successful new year!
