August 31st, 2024 by

Dear Readers,

As we close out August, I’ve conducted a tarot card reading to gain deeper insights into my current journey. Here’s a look at the wisdom revealed through my cards.

LEFT HAND DRAWING:

PAST – Eight of Swords

“I can choose to see truth.”

Reflecting on the past, the Eight of Swords invites us to recognize the illusions and limitations we’ve placed on ourselves. It encourages us to shift our perspective and see the truth behind our fears and doubts.

PRESENT – Four of Swords (Reversed)

“I deserve rest, peace, and stillness.”

In the present moment, the Four of Swords (Reversed) highlights the need to prioritize our well-being. It’s a call to step back, find solace, and ensure we’re not neglecting our mental and physical health.

FUTURE – Justice

“Everyone is accountable for their own actions.”

Looking ahead, Justice serves as a reminder of the importance of fairness and accountability. It suggests that balance will be restored as actions are weighed and consequences are faced.

RIGHT HAND DRAWING:

PAST – The Sun

“I feel the joy of being alive.”

The Sun in the past position brings a burst of positivity and joy. It reflects a time of clarity and warmth, reminding us of the vitality and happiness that once illuminated our path.

PRESENT – Justice

“Everyone is accountable for their own actions.”

The recurrence of Justice in the present emphasizes its powerful message of fairness. It indicates that we are in a period where truth and balance are paramount, and our current actions will be closely aligned with our values.

FUTURE – Knight of Swords (Reversed)

“I am not afraid of confrontation when it is needed.”

The Knight of Swords (Reversed) suggests a future where we are prepared to face challenges head-on, yet with a mindful approach. It’s a call to be courageous, but also to choose our battles wisely.

As we navigate the final stretch of this month, may these insights guide you toward greater self-awareness and balance. Remember to embrace truth, seek peace, and act with integrity.

Warm regards,

Mid-Day Tarot Reflection: Embracing Determination, Adaptability, and Respect

Today’s Mid-Day Tarot Card Reading offers a powerful journey through the past, present, and future. As I explore these cards, I find valuable insights that resonate deeply with my personal journey and offer guidance for navigating life’s challenges. Let’s dive into the meanings behind The Chariot, Eight of Wands, and King of Pentacles.

PAST – The Chariot:

“I know when to exert determination and when to let go.”

The Chariot in the past position speaks to a time when you were called to harness your determination and drive. This card reminds us of the balance between pushing forward and knowing when to release control. In my own life, there have been moments when sheer willpower was necessary to overcome obstacles, but equally important were the times when I had to trust the process and let go. The Chariot reminds us that true strength lies in knowing when to exert effort and when to surrender.

PRESENT – Eight of Wands:

“I can handle and adapt to the demands of life.”

Currently, the Eight of Wands suggests that life is moving swiftly, and demands are coming from all directions. This card embodies the energy of quick action and adaptability. It’s a reminder that in the face of rapid change, we have the ability to handle whatever comes our way. Whether it’s juggling responsibilities, making decisions on the fly, or navigating unexpected situations, this card encourages us to stay grounded and trust in our ability to adapt.

FUTURE – King of Pentacles:

“My resources are sacred. I treat them with respect and care.”

Looking ahead, the King of Pentacles represents a future where resource management and respect for what you possess will be crucial. This card is a call to treat your resources—whether they be time, money, or energy—as sacred and valuable. The King of Pentacles embodies stability, prosperity, and a deep understanding of the importance of stewardship. As I move forward, I’m reminded to approach my resources with care, ensuring that they are used wisely and sustainably.

This Mid-Day Tarot Reading offers a powerful narrative about determination, adaptability, and respect for resources. The Chariot teaches us to know when to push and when to let go, the Eight of Wands reminds us of our ability to adapt to life’s demands, and the King of Pentacles encourages us to treat our resources with the utmost care. These insights resonate not only with my personal journey but also with the universal challenges we all face. I hope this reflection offers you some guidance and inspiration as you navigate your own path.

Finding Harmony: A Nightly Reflection

Dear Readers,

As the day comes to a close, I drew a single tarot card to center my thoughts and guide my intentions for the night. The card that emerged was Temperance.

Single Tarot Card Drawing:

Temperance

“I direct my energy and resources to find balance.”

This card is a powerful reminder of the importance of moderation and harmony in our lives. Temperance calls us to carefully blend our energies, passions, and resources in a way that creates balance, rather than chaos. It’s about knowing when to act and when to pause, ensuring that we don’t overextend ourselves in one area at the expense of another.

In our fast-paced world, it’s easy to become consumed by work, responsibilities, or even our passions, often leaving little room for rest, reflection, or connection with those we love. Temperance encourages us to step back, assess our priorities, and make intentional choices that bring a sense of equilibrium to our lives.

As you prepare for rest tonight, consider where you might need more balance. Are there areas in your life that require more attention, or perhaps, less? Let this be a gentle reminder to align your actions with your true needs and to approach your life with a sense of harmony and grace.

May you find peace and balance in the days to come.

Warm regards,

Jenny Toussaint
