Day Two of #theaugusttarot before I go to bed. These are the three things I've been most thankful for lately. ▪ My Home is finally a safe space. I have room to flourish in new & fun ways! For once in my life I have a room that feels truly mine, one that reflects my personality & represents my passions. I have a roommate who challenges & nurtures me. 🏡 ▪ My Friends/ Family are a constant reminder that I'm not in this alone. Not only do I love feeling loved by these people, but it means everything to me to see them smile & succeed. 💗 ▪ My Guiding Spirits ... Hm. They are certainly the most abstract concepts represented at the table, haha~ I won't get into the details because that's not the point, but these are non-human entities that have had some kind of positive influence on my life. 🌌 ▪ Deck: Wild Unknown Tarot ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ #queertarotreader #tarotchallenge #augusttarotchallenge #guidedhealing #gratitude #iamthankfulfor #chosenfamily #guardianangel #queerwitch #gaywitch #gaytarotreader #transwitch #transtarotreader #nonbinarywitch #operculum #smokyquartz #cartomancy #divination #altarspace #wildunknowntarot

Almost caught up! Day 24 of the August Healing Tarot Challenge: "What's the best method to heal from this incident in my past?" I drew the Star card reversed. ⭐️ I'm not that familiar with this card in the Reversed position as it doesn't come up often. So I did a little studying up. Many books said it was about being pessimistic and stubborn. Neither resonated with me. So I dug a little deeper and one of my books said "at the shamanic and magical level, this card indicates working with the earth and plants. It's about purifying and reconsecrating the body and soul." That is what I have been doing! It's so great to dig around and find other meanings that aren't that popular but can resonate. #augusttarotchallenge #day24 #healing #tarot #starcard #reversed #earth #plants #plantmedicine #rejuvenation #soulhealing #cleansing

Day 22 of the August Healing Tarot Challenge: "What aspect or incident of my past needs healing?" I almost skipped this question as it's a no-brainer but then I got curious. I drew the Justice card. ⚖️ I'm still healing from the ramifications of my abuse. If I could sue my abuser and/or my parents, I honestly would do it. That's probably not the answer. Besides healing from this, I also need peace of mind. The Justice card does represent legal matters and old wrongs but it's also about maintaining balance. This includes not allowing strong feelings -- no matter how justifiable -- to take over your life. The message is to compromise if you can and take up the battle on another day if you need to. Time will take care of this. #augusttarotchallenge #day22 #healing #tarot #justice #abusesurvivor #legal #peaceofmind #balance

Day 21 of the August Healing Tarot Challenge: "What is the best way to heal my relationship with my sister?" I drew the King of Wands. 🤴🏻 The King of Wands can represent a real person and this person is my brother-in-law. He's a good communicator and negotiator just like the King of Wands. This card also indicates a person who can solve a long-standing problem. He's the type of guy who lets you bounce ideas off him until a solution arises. 👑 The problem is I'm not ready to open that door. Not to anyone in the family. But at least I have options and solutions when the time comes. #augusttarotchallenge #day21 #healing #tarot #kingofwands #communicator #negotiator #takecharge #problemsolved

Day 14 of the August Healing Tarot Challenge: "What needs healing in relationship to my parents or family unit?" I went to my Lenormand deck and had to pull 3 cards. 🙌🏻 The first card is the Woman so I rent this represented me. This card is about feminine energy. The Tree represents health, and the House represents sanctuary and shelter. When the Tree & the House are together, it indicates a house that has security but possible ill health. That describes the house I grew up in and where my parents still live. 🌳🏡 I think this combination means that I have to use my feminine energy and power to heal my relationship with them. The problem is I've tried. Maybe there's more I can do? Maybe I have to keep trying? The rose that woman is holding represents connection. I imagine that we have been together in past lives. I know that I am the key to the healing in the family. But for me, it's not the right time. 😞 #augusttarotchallenge #day14 #healing #lenormand #woman #tree #house #security #illhealth #feminineenergy #power #connection #pastlives #family #itsuptome

Almost caught up! Day 12 of the August Healing Tarot Challenge: "What aspect needs healing in relation to my spirituality?" I again went to my Lenormand deck and drew Clover. 🍀 The Clover card is about luck, but generally only short-term such as playing the lottery or gambling. I don't gamble or buy lottery tickets so I had to do some digging. One of the common themes I found was that situations can be resolved, just not the way you think. That still didn't help me so I had to leave the card on the table and do something else. I knew the answer would come eventually. ⏰ I sat down to watch Million Dollar Matchmaker and someone said, "You gotta have faith." That's the answer! Every gambler has faith they will win if they blow on the dice. Every lottery ticket buyer has faith they will win. Otherwise they would stop buying them. Things may be resolved with my family one day. I know I need to have more faith. But as a sexual abuse survivor, it's not easy. #augusttarotchallenge #day12 #healing #lenormand #tarot #clover #luck #resolution #faith
