Today is Blue Monday, the saddest day of the year. The dark has taken a toll on us all, and the joy of Yule and the festive season has passed.
I myself am on sick leave til at least March, due to autistic burnout, and have experienced magnanimous lows throughout life, which is what brought me to divination in the first place. My mum gave me a deck of Titania’s Fortune Cards when I was about 8-9 years old, so that I had some support from the pictorial keys when people failed to connect with me through childhood mental and behavioural struggles, and for the first time in my life, I didn’t feel lonely.
Tarot is an incredible tool for this; offering a guiding compass, hope, and even warnings to help us manage hard times. It gives a voice to our inner world and helps us make sense of our emotions, provides a space for emotional recovery, and helps us step back into our strength.
Of the thousands of readings I’ve done, never once have I seen the cards tell someone to just give up and end it all. They show the way through the woods, and help us identify the fastest route to recovery of personal power; to a return to the self. They show me that you can rectify wrongs, make peace with the past, and that there is always a future.
If you found this post, and you’re feeling low, then I hope this inspires you to pick up your cards, to buy a pack; or look for omens elsewhere. The swirling in your coffee foam, the changes in nature, animals, or your dreams and ideas. Signs are everywhere, and having visual cue to unfold the Pandora’s box in yer swede might just do some good. So notice them, interpret them, look for guidance and hope in them, journal them, use them to craft your vision or connect with your eudaimonia.
