From the oracle deck Angel Guide by Kyle Gray

Card- Angelic Protection

Message: A brilliant light of protection is around you at this time. Angels are guiding and guarding you and want you to know that you are safe. Whether you are worried about physical, emotional or spiritual harm , or not, this card is confirming that you have spiritual protection. Your angel guide is supporting you and leading you to positive experiences and outcomes. If you have decisions to make or opportunities to take and you are unsure what to do, this card is giving you comfort and support. The angels that are with you only need a prayer from you in order to swoop in and guide you.

Notes from me; I say a daily bedtime prayer thanking the angels for supporting me, encouraging me, guiding me and unconditionally loving me. I thank them for their continuous presence in my life. This card reminds me and affirms for me that they hear me and they protect me always. I’ve have some key times in my life where I could feel them with me and they protected me from danger. When I am stressing out, I feel them comforting me and my anxiety de-escalates. I feel a warm glow of calmness and I know they have my back always. I am grateful for their presence and know that I am never alone.

My wish for you today, whomever reads this post, can know and experience the Angels in their life. All you have to do is call them and they’ll be there. Look for the signs from them. When I first started connecting fully to them, they left dimes along my path. One of Angelic signs is coins and also include numbers, repeated number sequences, and feathers to name a few. Keep your heart open for their messages.

From Oracle deck Everyday Witch- Make a Move

Will Kemp from Swan Lake

Today I was pulling cards from this Oracle deck for a daily message and two popped out. For this card, I decided to just meditate on the image. As you can see on the card, this male and female witch are in ballet pose with their feet in a stream. They have sparklers in their hands of sorts invoking the magic of water. Fish are popping out of the water dancing along with them. A cat is batting at the fish playfully. There’s a gentle waterfall flowing around them and otters as their audience. There’s healing magic all around them. They are carefree and very much alive in the moment. All of this reminded me of Will dancing. It’s magic. It’s empowering, seductive, inspiring and soothing. Symbols from this card and their meanings are:

Water- emotions, healing, life itself in all of it’s enthusiastic ways

Fish- abundance

Cat- mystery, intuition, inner knowing

Otters- Givers of great fortune. Symbolize friendship, peace, kindness and family. They are also symbols of grace, empathy, happiness and never-ending curiosity.

As I’m studying this card, I can hear the song ” Get On Your Feet” by Gloria Estefan in my ear. ‘

” Get on your feet. Get up and make it happen. Get on your feet. Stand up and take some action.’

That’s the message of this card. Don’t just sit there. Get up and move. Get it done. Make the magic happen. Feel. Heal.

These are all my intuitive thoughts of this today. Whoever reads this, I hope it inspires you to move with the rhythm and flow of life.

Oracle Deck- Everyday Witch Oracle by Deborah Blake

Card of the Day- Imagine and Envision

Element- Air- Thought and Communication

Divination Message- The card reminds you to use your imagination. Are you limiting the solutions to a problem because you can’t imagine possibilities beyond the obvious? Maybe you are feeling discouraged and need to dream big about your future. Let your imagination roam and see what comes up. Then pay attention.

Thoughts from me: Well, I’ve been really stuck in a huge rut these days and I need to snap out of it. Some of my happiest times have been when I used my innate creativity and passion to charge up the atmosphere. Let’s face it. It’s been a tough year and then some. We are limited and isolated in so many ways due to the pandemic. It’s hard to get a spark of inspiration. So, bring out the books. Listen to the music. Watch a good movie and connect socially to others on your social media platform of choice. Don’t be shy to reach out and tell someone you love what they do. Share your creative projects with others. Don’t get discouraged. You just never know who you can inspire. Go for it.

Have a great day and let your imagination run wild. Dream of the possibilities and put them into action.

Deck- Influence of the Angels deck by Jody Boginski Barbessi

Card of the Day- 10 of Pentacles

Meaning: Material access, prosperity, abundance, Solidly established, Deep roots, Legacy, Inheritance, Passing down from one generation to the next

Angelic Message: May your prosper in any way possible

Notes from Me: To me personally, the pentacles suit is about worth- not just material but also worth of self. The family depicted on this card is rich in wealth. They have everything they need materially to be content. When the angelic message says’ in any way possible” I think it indicates your own self worth as well. You can have all the money in the world but are you truly satisfied and content. Tend to your own garden of worth as well. In that way as well as materially, you will find contentment and a sense of true sense of fulfillment.

Have a great day. To all who read this post, this message is sent and meant for you as well.

From the Influence of the Angels Tarot by Jody Boginski Barbessi

Card- Strength

Direct Meanings: Inner Strength , Quiet Courage, Patience, Compassion, Gentle Persuasion, The ability to control a situation without overt force or aggression

Angelic Message- Take care not to confuse the strength of compassion with the weakness of sentimentality.

Notes from Me: Each sign in the zodiac has a tarot card associated with it. Strength is Leo’s card. I’m a Leo so this card really holds a special place for me. As I was posting this, I heard the message ” taming of the beast”. It’s gentle strength that wins the day. It’s feeling compassion for others. It’s the strength that lives inside each of us. Don’t ever think that you aren’t strong enough to handle something. You are strong enough to handle any storm. Be patient. The tide will turn as it always does and you will have weathered any challenge bravely.

Have a good day.

To all the read this, the meaning and the message is for you.

Deck- Influence of the Angels Tarot by Jody Boginski Barbessi

Card- Judgement

Meanings: Reckoning of your past especially unresolved issues

Completely letting go of inner conflict, pain and dissonance

Forgiveness

Having the inner freedom to move on

Transformation

Angel Message: If you carry the hurt of a painful past experiences, summon the courage to face them, acknowledge the truth about them, and let them go.

Notes from me: I believe ( or heard through the grapevine) that tomorrow marks a New Moon / Solar Eclipse which brings about resolving conflicts from the past, letting them go and moving on. This card is perfect as a reminder of this. If we continue to carry our burdens,, conflicts and things that we have not resolved, we will continue to carry a heavy load. That’s backbreaking . What is one conflict from the past that you would like to resolve? Think about it. Meditate on it. Forgive the persons involved. Forgive yourself. Let go of the burden. Lay it down and carry on.

Have a good day.

Deck- Influence of the Angels Tarot by Jody Boginski Barbessi

Card- The Chariot

Having complete control of the situation managing all moving parts to accomplish a goal

Having the discipline, drive and tenacity to achieve success

Force of will, determination

Recognizing the way things come together

Angel Message- Take care when pushing through a goal. Putting too much pressure on yourself can lead to burnout… and what good comes of that?

Notes from me: Steady goes the race. Pace yourself. You have all the materials to succeed as long as you’re on an even keel. Sometimes, you control the horse and other times the horse controls you.

I’m excited to use this deck for tarot readings but a good way of becoming familiar with a deck and reading with it is to familiarize yourself to it thus a card of the day.

Have a good day.

Deck- Magical Times Oracle by Jody Bergsma

How can we bring magic into our day today?

Card- Confidence- Be bold. Rise up and Stand tall. Feel the fire in your soul.

Message- Today I will connect with my inner power and be bold. I will rise up and know my worth. I banish all uncertainty and remember with pride my accomplishments. I will let no one diminish me. I embrace the strong, beautiful presence that I am and I will go forth with courage.

Notes from Me:

I’ve been witnessing a few people who are feeling smaller than small these days and as if they don’t matter in this world. I’ll be honest. I’ve felt that way more than I care to admit. The thing is that it starts with you. That fire is always inside of you. It may be an ember or it may be a full fledged wildfire. We are the keeper of our fire. It’s up to us to tend to it regularly and then share it without any expectations of attention or applause. Keep on going. You just never know when you can fan the flames and spark that fire in someone else.

Have a great day and attend to your inner fire.

Deck- Radiant Rider- Waite mini deck

I don’t often do reads on politics and government . If I do, I generally do not share them but this one is filled with hope so why not share?

The question I asked Spirit was ” How can we bring harmony to our nation?” but, as Spirit sometimes does, gave me a general reading on the state of our nation. So her it goes.

Situation- Knight of Pentacles- bringing forth a new sense of worth

Crossing- Chariot- things moving quickly going forward

Foundation- The Hierophant- Government

Past- Hanged Man- being strung up- a different perspective

Present- 5 of Pentacles- some being left out in the cold- unequal distribution

Future- 6 of Swords- Moving to safer shore and higher ground

You- The World- World View- Completion

Environment- Strength- Powerful

Hopes and Fears- Justice- good for some- bad for others

Outcome- 5 of Swords- laying down our armor- Standing our ground

Fall out card/ Conclusion- 9 of Pentacles- Contentment/ Big sigh of relief

So, that’s how I read those cards. It came quite easily for me when most of the time tarot stymies me. Big Message! A new sense of worth both material as well as mental is charging forward for our government. We were strung up in the past. There exists unequal standing but we are moving to safe ground. The current regime is complete and we have renewed strength of purpose. Justice will prevail and we will stand our ground and put down the armor to find commonality and equality. We can now breath a sigh of relief and begin the work of bringing forth harmony.

So shall it be!
