For this reading we’re joined by White Buffalo Calf Woman, the sacred figure from Lakota tradition who brings teachings of peace, respect, and right relationship.

Her medicine is calm strength: step back from pointless struggle, remember who loves you, listen to Spirit within.
Perfect company for:
- Thinking: V of Swords - Feeling: V of Cups - Doing: II High Priestess
Together, these cards talk about choosing peace over ego, letting love matter more than loss, and trusting your inner knowing.
Thinking – V of Swords
--Card Lesson: Not every battle deserves your mind, or your energy. --Keywords: Conflict, ego, hollow victory, perspective --Affirmation: “I step back from battles my ego doesn’t need.”
There’s a particular kind of argument where, halfway through, you realize you don’t even care about the topic anymore. You just don’t want to “lose.” That’s V of Swords territory. In your thoughts today, you may notice where you’re mentally rehearsing comebacks, replaying old conflicts, or planning how to prove a point long after the moment has passed.
White Buffalo Calf Woman invites you to ask a simple question: If I win this, what do I actually gain? If the answer is “a bruised relationship and a smug moment,” that’s your cue. Your mind is ready to pivot from scoring points to protecting peace.
Spiritual Nudge: Notice one mental battle you’ve been chewing on. Instead of feeding it another story, try releasing it: “I don’t need to win this to be okay.” You can still hold your truth and your boundaries without turning everything into a war.
Feeling – V of Cups
--Card Lesson: Let yourself grieve, but don’t forget what still stands behind you. --Keywords: Loss, disappointment, emotional focus, gratitude --Affirmation: “I am loved, and I let that love in.”
Emotionally, V of Cups shows the heart lingering over what went wrong: the spilled cups, the opportunity that passed, the person who didn’t show up how you hoped. This isn’t weakness; it’s honesty. Something did hurt. White Buffalo Calf Woman doesn’t rush you past that. She sits beside you in it.
But she also tilts your chin a little, so you can see the cups still upright, the bridge still standing, the people who are here for you. Today, your feelings may be learning to hold both truths at once: “This hurts” and “I am not alone.”
Spiritual Nudge: Gently name the thing you’re grieving right now. Then, just as deliberately, name three sources of love or support in your life: people, animals, ancestors, spirits, places. Let your body feel the difference between being abandoned and being supported through a hard season.
Doing – II High Priestess
--Card Lesson: Give your inner voice a real seat at the table. --Keywords: Intuition, inner knowing, quiet wisdom, mystery --Affirmation: “I listen to and trust my inner voice.”
In the realm of action, the High Priestess is an unusual guide, because she doesn’t rush you to do more. She asks you to move from a deeper place. White Buffalo Calf Woman and the High Priestess together are like two elders saying, “Slow down. Listen first.”
Today is less about dramatic outward moves and more about aligned choices. That email you send, the boundary you set, the rest you allow, the invitation you accept or decline: all of it goes better if you check in with your inner council first.
Spiritual Nudge: Before you take one important action today, pause and ask:
- “What does my body say about this?” - “What does my deeper self already know?”
Then adjust your action, even slightly, to match that inner answer. Every time you do this, you teach yourself that your intuition is trustworthy and worth consulting.
Carrying Her Peace into Your Day
With White Buffalo Calf Woman beside you, today’s spread is a lesson in gentle strength. V of Swords invites your mind to stop wasting energy on ego battles. V of Cups invites your heart to honor its sorrow without losing sight of the love that still surrounds you. The High Priestess invites your actions to spring from inner wisdom, not pressure or fear.
You don’t have to fix everything in one morning. It’s enough to step back from one needless fight, to let in one beam of love where you’ve been focused on loss, and to take one action that truly aligns with your inner voice.
May White Buffalo Calf Woman bless your day with calm clarity, may your heart remember it is loved, and may your steps be guided by the quiet, wise voice within. 🌾✨
