Pile 1

Tarot Cards: Queen of Wands (Justice and Nine of Wands), The Sun (Four of Wands), Six of Pentacles (Six of Swords), Seven of Cups (Two of Cups)

Bottom of the Deck: Two of Swords, Strength, The High Priestess, Ace of Swords

This guide can be a more motherly figure or a very ancient deity that appears more feminine. It almost has a “Crone” energy.

It’s okay to be happy after you have had to put walls up against a certain person, people, or your family. It’s okay that you are happier after establishing boundaries, my love. Compared to what they have done to you, no matter how minimal it could seem, your act of standing your ground and standing up for yourself is justified. It’s okay to be happy. The scales of justice have tipped in your favor. You’ve always questioned why you had to suffer, that the ones who have wronged you seem to always be able to get away with things. But now that you get to be happy once, you feel guilty when you should feel like the weight is lifted off your chest. The shackles they had put on you, the thoughts they put in your head to make you stay small, are a far greater harm than you standing up for yourself.

It’s okay to walk away. You may regret staying as long as you did, taking care of people wishing to receive it back but never getting it in return. But don’t. Your heart and your love is a great power. It is something that makes you strong. You loved yourself enough to finally walk away. And there will be another that shares the love you have, all you had to do is walk away from the people who didn’t. 

Pile 2

Tarot Cards: King of Pentacles, Seven of Pentacles, Ace of Cups, Five of Pentacles, Three of Swords, Ten of Wands, Six of Cups, Eight of Wands 

Bottom of the Deck: The Hanged Man 

This is a very masculine feeling guide. “Great Oak” energy, strong and warm. This could honestly resonate with people who picked pile 2 from my recent week ahead reading. This is a very father-like energy, built like a brick house and someone who does everything with love. A full heart and very, very protective. You could have seen him as a kid? Maybe in a dream or you actually saw his spirit. He could come around as a certain animal you see whenever you are going through something, or it’s like you are the only one that sees this animal and no one else sees them around. He gives off the energy of a bear, coyote, fox, tortoise. Orange daylilies. 

This guide isn’t really one for words but for actions, so I will do my best to describe what he’s showing and making me feel. He didn’t like that he had to keep his hands out of a situation that left you defeated and heartbroken, because his instinct is to keep you behind him and deal with your problems so you can keep living your life with as much peace and happiness as possible. However, he is showing me that he was told not to intervene. 

But just know, he walks beside you on your new journey. He is very adamant on making me tell you that he’s extremely proud and you’re doing a great job. He just nodded and gave a few claps. Don’t let the fire in your heart die and keep your “childlike wonder.” “Everything you thought as a child is true…you are just looking in the wrong places/looking too hard.” The journey ahead is great and filled with merriment despite the lack of coins in your pocket. There will be another great shift that will happen in your favor but keep on trucking. All that work will pay off and you have friends to enjoy the journey with. 

Pile 3

Tarot Cards: Seven of Wands, Ten of Pentacles, The Spirit Plane, Ace of Pentacles, King of Pentacles

Before I pull any cards, you have a guide or guides that come off as very ambiguous. They come off as very angelic or air/light fae, sylphs. I just see light creatures/beings and hear giggling. They are very lovely and they can be tricksters, but don’t cause much harm. They are light-hearted and like to keep the energy of fun around. Now I see them dancing with each other. I also see an expanse of field.

Another note: Since you probably believe in them if you picked this pile, I have a gnome friend who also wants to say something. 

I just have the top row of cards out and they all want to talk. They already have a flurry of messages. They want to say that, yes, you did see/hear from them and you aren’t crazy despite what others have said. They see you as one of them and as a good friend. You probably don’t feel human most days and become very confused/distressed from the way life is in this realm. You operate more in their realm of living. They are also telling you that you are far more rich because of that. 

They just wanna tell you that you aren’t crazy, they keep repeating that. Your view of the world is most likely correct. Nothing makes sense, what you believe should be makes sense though. And there is also a warning here that all beings of this category aren’t happy. In fact, they are actually really angry. “Something’s coming.” They won’t expand on that but they want you to know. You will be protected from your guides! And it will seemingly feel like everyone around you is effected but you. And throughout your life, you may have felt very lucky because things may have felt like were dropped in your lap or life has been pretty easy and it’s because of them. They don’t know if they want thanks or not, but they will take your gratitude in the form of gifts/offerings!

Pile 1

Tarot Cards: Knight of Wands, Seven of Wands, Nine of Pentacles, Ace of Cups, Queen of Wands (Bottom of the deck), (Two of Pentacles)

Oracle: Understanding, Strength, Celebration, Intuition, Pleasure, Acceptance (bottom of the deck)

While I was shuffling the deck, the two of pentacles was the card left on my desk that I didn’t pick up to shuffle again. And as I got your main cards out, I believe that it was there for a reason. You may have made, what you think, was a risky decision recently. It may have felt not safe to make this decision but you had a gut feeling that this is what you need to decide because it feels right, even if your logical mind thought otherwise. This decision could’ve happened years, months, weeks, days, before this reading. 

And after you made this decision, you spent the time after working extremely hard. 6 months just popped in my head, maybe there was a 6 month gestational period. There is also a feeling of making this decision to spite someone (parents?) that told you that it was wrong. But you are so passionate about this. It probably doesn’t feel like work because you love it so much. I also keep getting “pregnancy.” That won’t be for all of you but I know it is for someone. It could also symbolize the time you have worked on whatever passion you decided to go for.

This week I believe you are seeing the fruits of your labor! You’re seeing all your time and hard work paying off. There is a sense of abundance, this is the type of abundance you’ve always wished for. And these people that have tried to put doubt in your head could see the potential in you and tried to stop you out of jealousy. It may not be that they don’t want you to succeed, but they want the courage you have to go after their dreams and wishes like you have. And seeing it pay off may strike a nerve. You may have gone through a lot of emotional drama before this happens and it’s because the energy is shifting in your favor. 

For some of you, the passion you have lost for something could be reigniting. 

Newts are being shown to me. They usually symbolize adaptability, regeneration, renewal, and transformation. 

This week should be confirmation to you that your intuition works and that you can trust yourself! You know what you want and you have the strength to push yourself through to get it. Your dreams require work, strength, and determination (even if it’s just baby steps). They won’t just land in your lap. However! You probably didn’t feel like you were working at all and so it will feel like it dropped in your lap, which gives you a sense of relieve and gratification. Celebrate your win!

Pile 2

Tarot Cards: (The Tower), Ace of Wands (Seven of Wands), The Hanged Mand (The High Priestess), Seven of Swords (Nine of Swords), The Hierophant (Ace of Pentacles), The Star (Eight of Pentacles), Queen of Swords and Strength (both bottom of the deck)

Oracle: 

While I was shuffling, The Tower card peaked out and it was just the words of it. There could’ve been a situation that you had a feeling was coming or could see happening and it probably just showed itself. I was going to say that this feels very similar to pile 1, but I don’t think that’s the case.

While laying out your cards, I had to get clarifiers. There is a sense of looking at a situation from all sides or finally getting the other side of a story which triggers the happenings of this week. And I was also very set on organizing the cards, even getting the oracle cards out early. 

I want to warn you that the energies are warning you not to make any rash decisions just yet. (Even if you really want to.)

There is a situation that probably just happened. either in a friendship (group), relationship, or family. There is a feeling of something coming out of the woodwork and catching you a little off-guard. It also could’ve been something you have been suspecting all along and you finally got confirmation. Whatever it was, you might have ended up in a fight with this person or these people but you were left with the last word. You had to say your piece and put your foot down. Maybe you didn’t mean to but the emotions were so high that they slipped out and made decisions for you. (Whatever it is, I believe it caused a sense of panic because I’m feeling hot and getting the type of sweat that happens when panic/anxiety happens.)

You may be feeling down or were. There is a sense of betrayal and the feeling of being lied to. (Don’t call yourself stupid for not seeing it.) But I believe that this week could be the time where things are slowly turning around. It’s time to pick up your feet and head to the drawing board. 

I won’t call it a “revenge era” because that means that you are doing it for the other person. You are going to be making plans for your future. You deserve better and you know that the previous situation was getting you nowhere near what you want for your life. It could’ve been a situation where it was safe, but the latest issue was the last straw. The energies that be are giving you a boot in the ass. They are a little tired of you staying where you are, they know you’re tired of this situation, so they are pushing you in the direction you need to go.

You have big hopes and dreams to work towards! And whatever dreams that reoccur in your daily daydreams are meant for you to work towards. So take this week of silence and peace to plan the next few steps moving forward.

Pile 3

Oracle Cards: Transformation (Patience), Passion (Influence), Readiness (bottom of the deck)

Tarot Cards: Five of Pentacles, Soulmates, Nine of Swords, Queen of Swords (reversed), Ace of Cups and The Emperor (Bottom of the Deck)

This was the only pile I was called to pull oracles first. And the energies feel more melancholic and peaceful than the other two piles. Another note: I separated the oracle and tarot, like there is a noticeable presence of separation. And I am all over the place as I write this out because I keep bouncing from thought to thought and having to move sections around. 

I believe that, like everyone that has encountered the altering energies of October, has been forced to slow down. The transformation oracle kept looking at me while I was shuffling. And on this card is a bat. I love bats and they have followed me on my own journey through life. They are a symbol of journeying through darkness, movement even when there is no clear path. You could have been through something this month or recently that has left you in the void. Everything has been stripped away and almost feels like starting over. Here’s the kicker, the energies that be are trying to guide you but you’re too in your head to notice. 

You are in the process of transforming, most likely in every way, but you aren’t giving yourself the patience to let it happen. It’s not going to happen right away. Slow down! Breathe…You are missing out on everything around you. And by missing out on the present, you may be missing the clear path laid out. In video games, players have a path but they don’t usually just keep on the trail. There’s side quests, time where players spend doing the mundane, nothing at all… And I believe that you need time spent just enjoying the day to day. The peace you have been given. Life isn’t peaceful all the time and you want to skip over the chance to have it right now? 

I almost feel like I’m comforting someone that has been crying to any divinity and asking what to do. I see you crying at me… Love, you’re okay. You don’t need to know right now. You have been given the time to just be. Sit and be. The energies that be aren’t your enemy and haven’t left you. They are like the ultimate parent and have been holding your hand the entire time. The times they are silent are the times where you get to think and figure things out yourself. Take this time to feel the emotions, rest…When the time comes to move, you know you can figure it out. You have guided yourself this far and you can guide yourself on the journey ahead. But for now, enjoy the peace.
