Oh good, stay safe! Also, does this mean your dad can work from home? Or is he out of a job until things calm down?

Not too late at all! There’s still an hour or so left!

What can I do to overcome my fears?

Six of Cups

Fear is something that often keeps us rooted in one place or another, blocking us out of all others. Right now, you need to find a way to connect to your past, even if fear holds you from it. Reach deep within yourself for memories, both good and bad. Hold them close to your heart. What have you learned from them? What comforts have they given you? What hardships have you already weathered and come out on top? Memories are a powerful tool when used with discretion. Learn to wield them against even your greatest fears, and you’ll find that you can triumph again and again. You have the power. 

Which element can aid you right now?

Queen of Cups

The suit of Cups is ruled by the element of water, which represents emotions and relationships, and is closely associated with the soul. The Queen of Cups in particular embodies this soul energy. She is all about the inner self’s consciousness, the intuition that we carry with us everywhere. The energy of water is calling out to you, seeking to aid your inner self and help nourish your soul. Don’t be afraid to let it in. It holds the secrets to the more nuanced things that you’ve been so desperately trying to figure out. Let it quench your thirst for the inner knowledge.

What can you look toward for peace in hard times?

Five of Bows

Remember that you are not powerless. Inside you there burns a fire, and though it may sometimes burn low it still is always burning. Let its heat both warm and nurture your soul. Ask it to lend you its strength, its empowerment, and it will answer. The fire is you after all. Learn to harness its heat for your own means, learn to temper its ferocity and turn it into your strength. Fire can both aid and destroy, and in this duality you lie as well. Look to the fire for what fuels you, for what aids you, and for what helps you strike back at life’s challenges. Keep burning, bright phoenix. The world can never stop you. 

What do you need to hear right now?

Ace of Cups

There is a new beginning on the horizon, and with it will come a period of revitalization. A new love is walking into your life, something or someone that you’ll be able to rely on and look to for a source of joy–whether the connection be romantic or platonic. If you feel like things are changing and everything is turning on its head, just go with it. It’s going in the right direction whether it feels like it right now. Be ready to be really happy! 

What can you expect to manifest this Summer season?

The Wheel of Fortune

You’ve been walking along a cycle that was set in motion by the universe’s hand for some time now. It’s time to begin the next step. This Summer, you’ll finally be moving forward in the goals you’ve been working towards. All your hard work will start to pay off, and you’ll be building foundations to work towards the next step once more. The only way the universe moves you right now is up, and it’s a good time to make sure that you begin laying the brick work to keep going higher and higher, and continue achieving the things you hope for!

Hey! I also have issues with anger getting the best of me. I’d like to add a bit of personal advice to whatever my reading says: Breathe, imagine yourself taking a step to the left or right, and then stepping forward into what you want to do or say. It helps remove you for just a moment so you can respond instead of react.

How can you best stay focused and grounded?

The Wheel

Become intimate with the cycle of life. Change is an inevitable, beautiful thing that is happening always whether we are conscious of it or not. Take a moment to step back and notice the changes in your life, both the good and the bad. Notice how they led you to your place in life, how they changed the steps you took to get here. Find the things in yourself and your surroundings that you want to change. Take control of your life and begin living it, understanding that you can alter the cycle however you need to. Welcome the changes that come your way as you take control. Understand that all things, both good and bad, must and will pass. Revel in the beauty of it.

What am I not seeing about the bigger picture?

Eight of Wands

You’ve sewn a small seed without even realizing it, and now it’s beginning to bloom into something more. It’s been slowly growing in the background, nurtured by you without you paying it active mind, but now it needs your help. It calls to you to take it to some high ground and look towards the path beyond what you can see in front of you. Where does it lead? Is it going somewhere you want? The journey is going to be long, but the seed you’ve sewn promises something great if you take it. Follow the path that brings you the most hope. When you are ready, climb down from your perch and begin the journey with fervor. It’s time you see where your destiny is leading you to.
