Page of Penacles

The Princess of Penacles more commonly known as the Page brings the message that now is the time to gain knowledge in what you are passionate about. This could be applied to the work field you are currently in, a side project that you do more for the enjoyment then the money it brings in or a serious hobby. All knowledge is worth having so learn in any conventional or unconventional way. Take that first step out of your comfot zone and ask the questions that keep you up at night. Reach out to others who have been doing this for awhile to watch and pick up tips and tricks. No matter where you are in this journey there is something to learn. The page brings in youthful energy so use that to start this new endeavor.

This Princess (or page) has taken the time to learned how to set realistic goals when it comes go her finances. She is taking the time to count things carefully. She at times can be split between knowing to save for the future and wanting to buy what her heart desires. Since the Princess (or page) can be easily lead astrayed with good intentions she has to be cautious of others who could easily take advantage of the wealth she has gained through hard work. She knows that sometimes what the heart wants and what she really needs to survive can be two different things

Edit note: with the holidays right around the corner and black Friday and all other "big" sales going on this week be careful of sales that seem to good to be true. Sometimes our inner child can work against our better judgement.

Ten of Penacles

After a few weeks of isolation or feeling of not being present in your life its now time to be the glue that holds your family or friend group together. You are being called to help others by bringing in words of affirmation, acts of service, gift giving, quality time or physical touch. These acts bring people comfort, when we create that space you bring wealth into your life and others.

Friends or family are out in town and happen to meet up. The man sits down to enjoy some time with two dogs. Both of these things were not planned but the joy it brought these people and animals show how important connection is. It doesn't take grand gestures to show others you love and care for them. Just showing up in small ways builds lasting relationships. This week look for ways to be present as it would have been just as easy for everyone to have continued to on their path instead of stopping to spend some time together. Yes life is busy but these moments are what fuels us to keep going.

Week of November 10th-16th

King of Swords Reversed

The King of Swords has wisdom gained from being a wise judge and mediator. But what happens when even though you have a strong background in knowledge but you just feel overwhelmed. The unfortunate answer is you run the risk of being cranky, have a short fuse and others can view you as being a bully. Even though you are normally logical and plan ahead the stress of life has created someone who is being self absorbed. Now is a good time to look at how you have been treating others and yourself and how you can make amends. If you don't do the hard work now you run the risk of becoming numb.

The crow sits on his throne but is trying to lift the heavy weight if his crown. Today it feels heavier than normal and the weight is causing discomfort. The crown used to be fun to wear but this week it just feels like a burden. The five feathers represent pieces of the crow it feels its missing or is currently losing. This causes the crow to not even recognize itself at times. The number five in tarot is connected to grief and loss. This crow mourns who it used to be to who it has become this week. It know it has some deep inner work to do but struggles to find the mental capacity to follow through.

Week of November 3rd-9th

Four of Wands Reveresed

After of week of hard emotions don't be surprised if this week you feel disconnected. This could be with friends, family, coworkers or even yourself. What you body and mind is needing is stimulation but after an emotional hang over you might feel like it's too much effort or that its too hard to leave the house. In actuality going out and reconnecting with people or hobbies is the mind break you need yet giving your body the stimulation it also requires.

The first cat is stopping to smell the flowers but he's so caught up in his own head he doesn't notice the cat behind him who is also alone. If they both took the time to look up they could meet and enjoy the scenery together. Sometimes we're ment to go through things alone but other times we need to rely on others as we go through tough times. These others could have gone through something similar or can just be a shoulder to help you bear the weight. Either ways we all need that break at times and it's best to spend some rest with others who know and love us so well. The green represents the heart chakra and the need to reach out but the reversed card shows that sometimes reaching out feels harder at this time than it has in the past.

Week of Oct 27th- Nov 2nd

Knight of Cups Reversed

Be prepared to feel your feelings this week. When the Knight of Cups is reversed its here to say that maybe you are the center to your own problems. Let's be honest no one wants to hear that, but sometimes the truth is a tough pill to swallow. There is a high chance this week that your emotions will be tough to regulate and you'll take things personally. You're creating a space for melodrama and that feels like no one understands what you are going through. This narrow minded thinking is setting you up for more heart ache. Take a look at the blame game you are playing this week and know the only way to heal and help is to be truthful woth yourself on how you got here.

The wings on the helmet and shoes of this Knight shows how easy it would be to fly away from your problems and hope they'll go away on their own. The high emotions the Knight is feeling is even affecting his horse who is normally steady but instead is twitchy and wants to bolt as well. Both of the Knight ahd the horse feel unsafe. The Knight is unaware that his emotions have leaked over to another as all they are aware of is themself.

Week of Oct 20th-26th

Nine of Swords Reversed

Lack of sleep is playing a role in your feeling of negativity and being down in a slump. It's time to evaluate what it is that's keeping you up at night. When we get stuck in this state of mind we can focus so much on what put us here that we start to lose sight on other important parts of our lives that can help turn things around. Worries about the past or the future can cause a spiral so its important to look at the here and now. Living in the moment, day by day, second by second will set things into a clear path towards finding happiness, health and much needed rest.

The cage in the lower corner is where you feel trapped at the moment. The bars look stronger than they are. But when you find the crows in the card they aren't in the cage. One is building a nest to get some rest while the other two are dancing together on a sword. While they must be careful on how they balance on the sword they have the freedom to let their bodies and minds live outside the cage. When they realize both are free and their minds are actually free they then start to see what was holding them back was just an illusion. They can go forward into the world with optimism.

Week of Oct 13th-19th

Justice Reversed

This week feelings of unfairness is on the rise. You'll see others getting ahead or paid what they are due yet you feel like your are being skipped. Sometimes the universe has a bigger plan for you and those who are patience can reap the bigger reward. There is a reason the universe wants you to observe others and wait your turn. But when this card is reversed patience isn't always a virtue we have at our disposal. Sit back, watch and learn from others who are getting these benefits. There is a life lesson to learn as long as you keep a rational mindset.

The scales show opposites. One has baren cold lands while the other has warm fruitful lands. These two represent what type of mindset you have which extends to how you represent yourself to the world. If you have dark and cold thoughts then others will pick up on that and you're making your situation harder for yourself. But on the flip side if you are warm and productive then others will be more inviting towards you. This week is a scale so it'll be easy to jump from side to side so don't be surprised if it feels like an emotional rollercoaster. But you are ultimately in the driver seat and have the choice to balance the scales or weigh heavy to one side or the other.

Week of Oct 6th-12th

Eight of Wands

After a harder pervious week we can now enter a new one with hard earned knowledge that will help bring us much needed change into our lives. You've made it through and have been successful and its time to take what you learned and apply it to your present. Look back on last week and see what help or what didn't and use that to your full advantage. If last week was such a low point and that you feel like you're starting all over again just know you have the determination and self confidence to succeed.

Eight arrows in your quiver, one target in the distance. You have tired to hit the mark and gotten close but still have some fine tuning to do. But even though you haven't been as successful as you have hoped or envision doesn't mean you aren't capable. Sometimes it take practice and luckily you have Eight more arrows to try again with. Don't take this as you are moving backwards. With each time you haven't gotten it "right" or where you want to be this gives you more chances to learn, grow and change your approach. Fail isn't a word to use here, but if you hear yourself saying it this week just change the narrtive to the word. When you break it down FAIL it stands for first attempt in learning.

Week of September 29th- October 5th

Five of Cups

Get ready for some emotions this week. With the seasons change its easy to look back on the summer and see all the things we didn't accomplish or the wish list that grew to long and didn't happen. Maybe work got in the way of fun, or maybe the colder seasons are not your favorite and your mourning the loss of the longer warmer days. Whatever your situation is this is a reminder that the year is not over. You still have time to accomplish goals, you still have the chance to be outside and soak in some sun. Just because something is over doesn't mean what around the corner isn't just as exciting.

This crow looks that the three tipped over cups that are losing its contents. The crow looks in shame and is already grieving what it could have gotten from these cups. They could have been his energy, his nutrition, or his dreams. The crow now feels lost and unsure what to do or where to go so he sits and mourns what could have been. But if the crow just turned around it would see two full cups behind him full of possibility. If the crow would just move and start to look around it would see that he has more going for him then to only see what was taken away.
