How can I avoid playing small, sabotaging myself, or blocking my power? QUEEN OF WANDS - Cat Action tempered by insight, connection to true self, confidence, intuition, a witch, etc. Aww! My name is Cat so this feels very fitting! The Queen of Wands is very special to me. She was my first stalker card - she was urging me to step into my power and enjoy every second of it. I have a history of playing small and the Queen of Wands stands in to slap it out of my system. I am a regal bitch witch and it’s okay to be proud of it. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 #bewitchedsunflower #lionharts #tarotchallenge #pnwtarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreader https://www.instagram.com/p/CiBeD91M91b/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Where have I seen a lot of growth in my spiritual journey through August? 4 OF SWORDS - Moonglow Anemone Contemplation, rest, recuperation, meditation, self-care, etc. Despite having severe anxiety, I have really calmed down in my incessant need to earn my way by doing. For the first time in my life, I can simply BE on my spiritual journey and it’s beautiful. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 #bewitchedsunflower #lionharts #tarotchallenge #pnwtarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreader (at The Magic Bean) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch_QFw-sJo5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What has my journey through the wild unknown taught me? KING OF PENTACLES - Olympic Elk Status, monetary success, authority over the home, abundance, self-discipline, etc. I have learned that I am more capable than I know. I am a hard worker, resilient. I can and I am providing for my family. That is not something to be taken lightly and I am proud of myself! 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 29. How can I build upon this journey moving forward? QUEEN OF CUPS - Orca Supportive, explorer of the subconscious, intuition, emotional maturity, compassion, kindness, etc. It’s easy to forget how much I contribute to my home when I am amidst the daily bustle. I can stop being so hard on myself now. I will continue to work hard, but I can keep my momentum while focusing my energy on my hubby’s and my own emotional needs. What good is it to work so hard for a beautiful life but then forget to enjoy that beautiful life I’ve built? Learning to consistently check-in. Because I deserve it. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 #bewitchedsunflower #lionharts #tarotchallenge #pnwtarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreader https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch3rG4KMhSs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Into the Wild Tarot Challenge @lionharts #theaugusttarot Pacific Northwest Tarot by @bren.marn 🍃🪺🍃 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 Part Three: By following the deviant moon 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 25. In what area am I guided to take a leap of faith under this New Moon? THE HIEROPHANT - Queen Honey Bee Structure, tradition, conformity, social hierarchies, education, beliefs, etc. Under this Virgo New Moon, I am building my own structure, my own routine, my own hierarchy of needs. Subconsciously this is scary and I feel some resistance. If I become self-sufficient, then… that means I won’t be taken care of externally (fulfilling an inner child need). This also means a lot more effort and a chance of royally fucking up. Forgiving someone else is easier to me than forgiving myself. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 26. How this New Moon help move towards my independence? 10 OF CUPS - Violet-Green Sparrows Homecoming, happiness, family, stability, culmination of a journey, etc. Starting a new chapter is not easy. A new semester, different teachers and classmates, new material, new expectations. Meanwhile at home it’s a new routine and a new schedule at work. My anxiety is not a fan. However, I have an adoring husband who is always gently nudging me to grow in areas I’m weak - but also not condemning me for being weak. He inspires me to strive harder to become more independent in fulfilling my own happiness. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 27. What should I be mindful of during this New Moon cycle? 6 OF CUPS - Giant Pacific Octopus Nostalgia, sentimentality, innocence, a protected place, etc. I mentioned my inner child above. She is getting more and more verbal after years of taking up a little space as possible. As I enter this new chapter of another semester is grad school, it is important for me to honor her needs. As I try to be more self-sufficient and grow in areas I am weak, I need to be gentle to my inner child. I owe it to myself. She needs my attention, my love, my protection. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 #bewitchedsunflower #lionharts #tarotchallenge #pnwtarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreader https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch1BhrDMdSw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What personal lessons does Virgo want to teach me during Virgo Season? KING OF SWORDS - Great Blue Heron Clarity, insight, authority, strictness, exacting, truth, etc Virgo wants to urge me to stop wasting my energy on things that are not for my higher good. And there’s a lot. I’ll take any clarity you got, Virgo! 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 23. In what area is Virgo guiding me to focus more on myself and my needs? 3 OF WANDS - Red Tailed Hawk Readiness, decisions, planning, discovery, progress, taking a risk, etc. Oof. I work for my mother. And it’s not always healthy for me. In fact, it’s draining. I’ve contemplated leaving but ultimately I decided to stay. Is it time to take the leap, I wonder? Every time I do it’s like I get the opposite sign to stay where I am. Where I am is exhaustion. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 24. Where can I be more self-reliant? THE MOON - Pacific Loon Intuition, illusion, dreams, duality, anxiety, insecurity, instability, etc. Start listening even harder to my own intuition. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 #bewitchedsunflower #lionharts #tarotchallenge #pnwtarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreader https://www.instagram.com/p/Chqmgpjsd08/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What empowering knowledge can I find within my shadows? 7 OF WANDS - Mountain Goat Protective, defending the status quo, possessive, standing up for yourself, etc I have found my voice! I can now stand up for myself! Self-advocacy has become my strength. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 17. In what way can embracing my shadows or darkness help me? THE HERMIT - Black Bear Contemplative, self-reflection, introspective, meditation, etc. Taking the time to self-reflect will be better for my health, my mind, and my path. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 18. How can my shadows serve me as a catalyst of my strengths? KNIGHT OF PENTACLES - Black-Tailed Deer Reliability, patience, diligence, etc. I’ve always been steadfast in following through on my word. Previously that had been to my detriment but now I choose what is healthy for me to give my word on. I can still hold true to my values but also while honoring what’s best for me. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 #bewitchedsunflower #lionharts #tarotchallenge #pnwtarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreader https://www.instagram.com/p/ChaheQ8ue1C/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

How can I best grow within my magic or my personal powers? THE HIGH PRIESTESS - Goldenrod Crab Spider Secrets, mysteries, intuition, hidden talents, accessing the subconscious, etc Whelp, it’s a mystery to me! Hahaha! In all seriousness though, this card has recently popped up a few times for me. I am to tap into my divine feminine and get in touch with my body, my subconscious mind, and be enshrouded within my own shadows. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 14. What new paths are opening up by building on my own strengths? 5 OF PENTACLES - Pronghorn Poverty, need, hardship, desperation, worry, etc. I find this card placement to be very interesting… I am in a TOUGH spot financially and it’s caused a lot of worry and desperation. Yet through all of that, I am discovering that I am where I need to be. Because of being in this particular predicament, I have been humbled and prodded to reorient my perspective. What truly brings me joy? Let’s get down to the bare minimum and reassess, shall we? 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 15. A personal reminder of something I overcame I should be proud of: KING OF WANDS - Grey Wolf Leadership, vision, decisiveness, execution, competence, charisma, etc. Wow, I am amazed at how far I’ve come. I used to be a doormat with no idea what my worth was. I used to stifle my voice and take up as little space as possible. I have completely transformed into this powerful witch you see before you! 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 #bewitchedsunflower #lionharts #tarotchallenge #pnwtarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreader https://www.instagram.com/p/ChZ1Vthuyxj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In what area is the Super Full Moon guiding me to follow its light? 6 OF CUPS - Giant Pacific Octopus Nostalgia, sentimentality, innocence, childhood memories, etc The Super Full Moon is coaxing me, nurturing me, encouraging me to take my first baby steps toward the next phase of my journey. And I am grateful for the thoughtfulness and gentleness. It’s an uncomfortable season of life right now and I am so appreciative to have the support I need. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 11. What is the Super Full Moon helping me to clear away? 10 OF WANDS - Rocky Mountain Elk Burden, duty, obligation, stress, burnout, etc. Ummm, I am concerned that I will never be able to let down the weight of the world on my shoulders. I am the reliable, organized, adaptable one. And I keep going, going, going. I have, however, begun to detach my steadfastness a bit away from the needs of others and focus a bit more on my own. I’ve always been considerate to a fault and I am learning to take up space. 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 12. What suppressed energy am I guided to express under this Full Moon? ACE OF CUPS - Hydrangea Emotional energy, spirituality, intuition, love, creativity, compassion, etc. LET MYSELF FEEL THE THINGS. All the things. Even if I pregame with logic to deny the pain of feeling it. It still needs to be felt. By the me. Even if there is nothing to be done about an emotion, I still need to allow myself to feel it. Easier said than done, but I am making progress! 🍃🌲🌿🌳🌱🌳🌿🌲🍃 #bewitchedsunflower #lionharts #tarotchallenge #pnwtarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreader https://www.instagram.com/p/ChL_P7-s8kV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
