Saint Sully

This time, I asked, "What should we all focus on today?" and pulled these cards. One is from the "Heaven and Hell" oracle and the other is from the I Ching. Both new decks for me!

Maybe some people slighted you in the past, or you're still wounded by those who turned out to only be fairweather friends (at best.) I get the vibe you were kicked a lot while you were down. Now, you're more set up for success and can actually pursue endeavors that matter to you.

Leave the past in the past. 🙏 Use your power wisely. Trying to punish people who wronged you is pointless and distracting. Like many have said, "Rotten fruit always falls by itself." It won't magnify your blessings anyway.

Spend some time alone to relax. Live in the moment. Contemplate what gifts and opportunities were given to you lately. To express your gratitude, make the most out of them. Your whole life is a beautiful gift. Make the most out of that, too.

Don't let anyone distract you from what truly matters.

For today's reading, I asked, "How can we all make the most out of the changes in our lives?" and got the King of Wands. This is filled with strong visionary energy. If you don't already, try to cultivate an eminence-type mindset.

There may be some unexpected conflict ahead. You can choose to handle it in a healthy way. Use your power wisely. Some people see you as a leader or example. It could be a warning against self righteousness. Try to have empathy for others' experiences and remain humble. You can trust yourself and your vision. It's a good time for calculated risk taking as well.

A friend asked, "How can we confront evil in our lives?" and this is my reading for the collective concerning that. Basically, number nine and Wunjo deal heavily with the community.

Focus on how to serve others instead of how you've been hurt/wronged. Continue to respect everyone's humanity and see at least a seed of potential for good in them. The more heinous the injury, the more pivotal this attitude will be to your own enlightenment.

Multiply the love and creativity in your heart. Continue to share that with everyone around you. Artwork, writing, etc. are all great outlets of expression. Use what happened to fuel your endeavors and inspire efforts to help others.

Deep down, we are all children. Focus on the little wounded child inside each person you come across. ❤️

Ace of Cups is about compassion. (Both for yourself and everyone around you.) Easier said than done, but move with love instead of spite. When you act, ask yourself where in your heart this comes from.

It's not easy to wish everyone well. You won't lose anything else if you do this, though. Be the kind of community you want to see. Part of having community is being community.

Lead by example.

You can (and should) feel confident in your ability to succeed and provide for yourself/others, however, don't rush into any decisions concerning how to do that long term. Take your time to truly hear your inner voice. Your intuition is worth listening to. Big efforts yield big rewards.

Set goals that are realistic and resonate with you. Don't second guess yourself. You will always have some way to make ends meet.

Caution is one thing but don't internalize input from those who didn't (or still don't) fully see what you're capable of. You are more talented and clever than many gave you credit for.

Pay them no mind. Their gossip won't pay your bills. At least not literally. Negative energy can be transmuted into further abundance or you can do a return to sender and watch them squirm. It's your choice!

Remember to exercise patience in all things. Patience is a reward in itself and a gift that keeps on giving. Take a deep breath and listen more than you speak.

This is the "jealous hater" spread! 😝 1. Who is jealous of you? 2. What are they jealous of? 3. What can you do about it?

Knight of Cups: A creative, romantic person. It could be someone who saw you as a potential partner or just someone to collaborate together. You rejected them or it didn't work out for another reason.

Five of Cups: This has something to do with the relationship you have with your grief/pain. It's healthier now. Maybe you struggled with an addiction and your recovery has finally built on itself in a noticeable way. The card is often associated with a lack of control of some sort. This person hates how they're still deeply sick and troubled while you're thriving in your own special way.

The Star: Continue to develop/express your gifts without worrying who it will piss off. Publicly reflect on your achievements and how you overcame past struggles. Do not worry about rubbing in the way this person feels inadequate.

For example, I plan to draw something to celebrate my next big alcohol-free milestone. I'm going to be 6 years strong in October.
