Tarot and Oracle Readings with other Spiritual Matters by Barb Ward

Deck- Energy Oracle by Sandra Anne Taylor

Question- What will be the energy for this week?

Overall Energy- Adjacent Possibilities- Many Unconsidered Options

Sometimes the force of habit keeps you stuck and unaware of potentially healthier and happier choices at hand. Yet every moment gives you the option to open a different door and take a different course- whether it’s your thoughts, behaviors or major life decisions.

What is above- what is coming from Source- Blossoming Abundance- Increasing Wealth and Value

This card signals a new increase in wealth, possibly in an unexpected and dramatic way. Be aware that the seeds you sow of your own wealth and prosperity, much like the garden works the ground and begins to see blossoming results take hold.

What grounds us? What is our foundation?- Goddess of the Moon- Intuition, Going Within

This card is all about intuition, the ability to receive insights from your soul’s point of view. It tells you that you have the power to get intuitive information on all types of issues, and now is the time to use it.

What lies behind us? Door to Value- New Beginnings to Finance and Career

There was potential for exciting new beginnings or expansions where work or money is concerned. Look back and see where that possibility was presented and move forward with it.

What lies before us?- Hostilities- Defenses up, Aggressive Actions

The aggressive energy may be verbal or emotional, with someone in your environment being excessively critical, demanding or hurtful. It may be backstabbing or out and out slander going on. Allowing dishonoring treatment from others is an open invitation to the Universe to send you more. It may feel risky but you need to have the courage to stand up for yourself now and always.

Clarifying Card to above card- Caring Connections- Friendship, Partnership of Two, Possible Love

This card reveals a caring connection – but usually between two people only. This card signals a beginning or deepening connection of a kindred- spirit connection or even the appearance of a new love.

Notes from Me- If your stuck in a rut, look for new ways and new perspectives of seeing things from a new angle. The Universe is always an abundant source if your open to it. Be open to receive and perhaps change your pattern from one of need to one of gratitude. Use your intuition and know that deep within your soul lies the answers to all things. All you have to do is stop the constant chatter, be still and be open to any messages received. Be an open channel of Source. Review anything that may have slipped through the cracks as potential to increasing value in your life. Don’t miss any opportunities that may have been presented to you. Finally, review the people in your environment that may be aggressive and/ or abusive and taking you for granted as their verbal punching bag. If we allow this type of behavior directed at us, we will keep on being in victim mode. Break away and stand up for yourself. Do not allow these people to zap your energy. Walk away but if you can’t walk away, please do stand up for yourself and set boundaries. When we do this, we open up new doors of possibilities for caring connections and love to find us.

Don’t forget that the New Super Full Moon is coming on May 7th and it’s suppose to be a doozy- all good energy and healing to boot. Light a candle that evening and ask for collective healing for yourself and the Universe.

To all may read this, this message is for you. And me too. 🙂

Deck- Angel Prayers Oracle by Kyle Gray

What Message do the Angels have for us today?

Left Card- Earth Angel

Instead of working out what you want next in your life, ask yourself these simple questions: How can I be of service? How can I first serve myself? and How can I extend my help to others? When you have the answers, know that they are guidance from the angels. They want you to be like them, and by living your life in a balanced way for yourself first and then for others, you become a living breathing Angel.

Middle Card- New Beginning

This card indicates that a new opportunity is being presented to you at this time and is divinely guided. Whether it be a new relationship, home, career or child, embrace and this exciting and prosperous new beginning that is being brought to you by God and his Angels. There is exciting and abundant light surrounding you now.

Right Card- Honor Your Beauty- Archangel Jophiel

The Angels are here to boost your confidence ( I sorely need this personally) because they can see how harsh you can be with yourself. Your beauty goes beyond your looks but you must see you are beautiful inside and out because that’s the truth. Take some time to look at what you love about yourself in the sense of your looks and what you love about yourself within. These thoughts and acknowledgements will align your soul with God.

Archangel Jophiel means the beauty of God and she is the angel that can acknowledge our beauty.

Color associated with Jophiel is dark pink. Crystals are dark pink crystals. Essential Oils- Chamomile and lemon

Notes from me: By looking at yourself and recognizing your beauty both inside and out, you will see things with a new perspective. You will value your assets and see yourself as God and the Angels do. In order to help others, you must help and uplift yourself first. Then you can answer your call to service and help others. Blessed Be!

Kyle Gray’s Angel Message Monday’s card for 4/27/20 was: From his deck Angel Prayers Oracle

Spirit Animal- Thank you animal kingdom for blessing my path with love.

In his message he says: Animal consciousness surrounds you at this time and passes messages to you from you Guardian Angels. If you felt inspired to help the animal kingdom in any way, perhaps by becoming vegetarian or adopting a pet, The Angels are encouraging you to follow the guidance. You not only have a Guardian Angel but also a spirit animal who is with you at this time. Say the prayer on this card then close your eyes and ask the spirit animal to show itself to you. Trust the first feeling and/ or vision that comes to you of this animal and connect with them through your spiritual practice.

I said the prayer, closed my eyes and eventually the Elephant showed his presence. The Elephant’s Spirit Message is:

Elephants remind us that we are strong enough to be a leader in our tribe. They stand tall and powerful. Thank you, Elephant for showing up for me at this time. I certainly need strength and power to navigate my life. Blessed Be.

Deck- Earth Magic Oracle by Steven D. Farmer

Question- What does Mother Earth have to say to us at this time?

Left Card- Wolf- Instinct

You have lost touch with your instinctual sensitivities. It is the result of controlled mindset that states that anything instinctual must be controlled or eliminated. Now is the time to let go of that limited mindset and tune into those instinctual cues once more. Let the spirit of the Wolf be your teacher and call upon this benevolent being to guide you to hone on your instincts and help you to understand the messages that is giving you.

Middle Card- Dance- Celebration

It is time to find the joy in your life. To let go of inhibitions that prevent you from being happy. Dance. Sing. Be free to express yourself and be happy.

Right Card- Full Moon- Completion

You can take pleasure that whatever you are working on or towards will be nearing completion. That’s the way life works. It’s cyclical. Some cycles last longer than others and we find ourselves impatient for the completion but just like the moon reaches it’s fullness, so will we. Keep your eye on the prize. Nothing in life shall be rushed. A steady pace is best.

EARTH WILL RESTORE ITSELF ONCE MORE. IT JUST TAKES TIME. BE PATIENT.

Left Card- Angel of Clarity- You have the clarity to see things from a higher perspective

It is time to see things in your life from a higher perspective.
Sometimes we as humans forget that is always an answer to every question. We just have to sit still, be patient and wait for the answer to reveal itself.

Affirmation- I possess the clarity to see, feel and hear aspects in my life in a clear and present manner.

Middle Card- Angel of Power- The Angel of Power is by your side guiding you with your journey.

The Angel of Power will show you how to empower others. He will guide people into your life who will appreciate the powers and gifts that you possess. Together you will empower others.

Affirmation- I am a powerful and confident spiritual being that chooses to make life choices that are for my higher good.

Right Card- Angel of Imagination- Your imagination is a glimpse of what you can and will bring into your life.

Your Angel of Imagination can see the visions that you inspire on a daily basis. Your angels want you to explore those visions your are receiving and set your imagination free.
All you need to do is ask him for assistance and your imagination will ignite in ways you can only dream of. Believe!

Affirmation: I am inspired by my Angel of Imagination to use my imagination to bring my thoughts into reality.

Notes from Me: The Guardian Angels are encouraging you to see, feel and hear things from a higher perspective. You have the power within you to make things happen and draw people to you can assist. Use your imagination and see things that you can create in your life and believe that if you envision it, you can create it. Believe!

Deck- Angel Prayers Oracle by Kyle Gray

Question- Angels, what message do you have for us today?

Left Card- Love and Accept Yourself- Thank you Angels for lovingly guiding me to self-acceptance.

*With everything going on in the world today- right at this very moment- all we can do and what’s the most important is to first love and accept yourself for who you are right as this moment. The only control we have in life is our control on ourself and how we react and act. Remember, nobody else can love you if you do not love yourslf so monitor the words that you say to your self. Make sure they come from a pure and loving place. Give yourself a hug.

Middle Card- You Are Protected- Archangel Michael- Thank you Michael for surrounding me with your protective light.

*Who’s your buddy and who has your back always? It’s Archangel Michael. If you haven’t connected with him yet, I encourage you to do so. He’s a shield and offers protection even in the darkest of times. All you have to do is call his name and he’ll be there. He has the power to be in many places at once. He will calm you fear and let you know that you’re not alone. He is mighty and powerful.(If you would like to draw Archangel Michael out, diffuse frankincense, lavender, tea tree and/ or Myrrh. His color is blue and his stone is Sugalite.)

Sugalite tumbled stones

Right Card- Spiritual Support- Dear Angels, I allow you to support me as I grow to become more spiritually award.

*Now’s the time that you need to connect with your source of higher power whoever they may be. We are so focused in our physical worlds going to and from that we forget to connect with the source that is inside of us. Angels are only a thought away. Call on them and they will answer. Once you call angels into your life you will never feel alone or unloved. They are asking you to seek them out.

Notes from Me: Whoever opens this reading, will be infused with angel love and protection. May the angels be with you, support you, guide you and protect you. So shall it be.

*These are my own intuitive thoughts and expressions.

Deck- Magical Times Oracle by Jody Bergsma

Question : How can we bring more joy and magic into our life now?

Left Card- Dance

Find your Heart’s Rhythm. Step lightly and swing with the melody. Close your eyes and let joy lead the way.

Frog Spirit message: You are simply inclined to navigate between physical, emotional and spiritual planes and find joy in life and nature.

Middle Card- Power

Call upon the elements. Focus your intentions. The greatest dragon is within you.

Dragon Spirit Message: Dragon reminds us of our emotional endurance, strength and courage. They encourage us to take advantage of our physical forces and look through life via the lenses of mystery and wonder.

Right Card- Humor

Laugh at yourself. Lighten your heart. Let nothing steal your happiness.

Cat Spirit Message: Cat’s symbolize all things sensual, curious, mysterious and magical with our need to inject our life with curiosity and magic. It reminds us of our desire for freedom.

Notes from Me: Each card had an animal in the image so I added the spirit message for each animal depicted. I think these cards are pretty self explanatory. I love this deck so much. It lightens my mood. I hope that you enjoyed this reading. Anyone who opens this and reads will find more joy in their heart. Remember, dance, claim your inner power and find humor in each day.

What is the current energy and vibration occurring at this particular point in time?

Door to Personal Healing and Happiness
New beginnings in our personal life

*There will be a harbinger of change. Make sure your intentions are sent and coming from a place of goodness.

Journey: Movement, relocation, travel

*After all is said and done, are we stuck in our current situation or are we anticipating new opportunities for growth and evolving.

Adjacent Possibilities
Many unconsidered options

*What will we do? Are we open to experience changes in our lives? Have we considered the possibilities or are we going to go back into what we know and what makes us comfortable?

Notes from Me: Well, well, well- just look at all that female, queenly energy! I have felt that for some time that feminine energy is rising to meet up and be equal to male. What is the key to feminine energy? I believe it’s nurturing. What will be happening? Well, male energy will soften. Instead of force of will and dominance, it will become more gentle with an open heart. When the male and female meet-up, we will prevail both personally and as a whole. When the yin-yang merge, we will see things in a new light. We will look to the past to see where we were at and why we did the things that we did. We will see growth and a new perspective going forward. Remember, love and oneness is at our core.

* My personal notes of these energy cards

Deck- Spirit Animal Oracle- Colette Baron-Reid

Thought I’d check in on the animals to see what message they had for us during this particular time in our lives. These are the cards that came forward.

Left card- Vulture- Nothing is wasted

What seems hideous, had it’s own beauty, and the recycling and repurposing does is as important as any other activity in nature Vultures message is that nothing is to be wasted, for nature sees value in everything that exists. You are reminded that any suffering you have experienced has not gone to waste. Wisdom and understanding that arose from the experience are talismans that will serve you on your journey. The alchemy of transformation is a gift from Spirit so never disown what embarrassed, disappointed or shamed you.

Middle card- Squirrel- Believe in yourself

You have accumulated wisdom and experience and are surrounded by all that you need. An abundance of resources are available to you through the generosity of Spirit. The unpredictability of life can shake your confidence in yourself and your potential for handling the challenges that come your way. You have come so far on your wits and creativity making use of your potential and all that Spirit presents you to help you through life’s trying times.

Right card- Starfish- Open to infinite possibility

As you look out to the horizon, do you open to infinite possibility? Spirit is the source of opportunities beyond your wildest imagination and ensures endless possibilities are available. When cynicism says no, Spirit says yes a thousand times over.

Notes from me: Living through challenges gives us the opportunity to grow in wisdom. Never caste it aside or make it less valuable. There is value in everything that we go through. We experience. We learn. We grow. There is always something for us. Know that have the strength and creativity to rise above. Please don’t forget in the midst of turmoil to stay open to the possibility for growth in understanding and compassion.

During this meditation, these are the animals that came to me.

Wolf was the first to appear. He looked at me and asked me to follow him. Wolf’s spiritual message serves as a guide for you to trust your instincts and pay attention to what they are telling you.

The second animal that came buzzing up to me was a dragonfly. They were making quite a racket. The Dragonfly brings with it news of change and transformation. It reminds us to be open to new things.

The third animal that came to me was an ant crawling on a long blade of grass. Ant’s spirit message is about community and how you need to work with others and establish camaraderie to have a peaceful co-existence.

The last animal I saw was a firefly. Firefly’s message is bringing about creativity, illumination and self discovery.

It was interesting to me that all animals that the wolf showed me were insects. Global symbolism for insects as a class of animal are these: variety, nurturing, fertility, sustenance, productivity, natural order, tenacity, persistence, privacy and community.

The overall message is to trust our instincts, be open to change, work within the community to establish camaraderie and peaceful co-existence. Be creative in ways that bring about illumination and discovering your true self. These are the things we can do as the Universe is giving up the opportunity to do so at this particular time in our life and history.

I had all intentions of doing this meditation and then pulling some animal oracle cards but Spirit had other things in mind for me. It was so nice to get back to my roots in Native American meditation and experiencing the animals that come to me during it.
