Card of the day: XIX The Sun

#XIXTheSun happy, harmony, love, energy, personal growth, vitality, confidence, success

Hanson-Roberts, Essential Tarot (1984)


Always a good card to get in a reading.  The imagery on the card is one of happiness, joy, growth.  A warm, sunny day signifying the bright, solar energy.  The naked baby on the white horse signifying innocence and joy.  

Change is indicated in this card, but it is always a positive change.  Usually in regards to family matters.  It heralds a message of a celebration (pregnancy, engagement, wedding) or a welcomed new beginning.

The Sun is a divine masculine, creative energy.  

Affirmation: “I welcome all new opportunities.  Now it is my time to welcome happiness and harmony into my life.”

Card of the Day: XX Judgement

#XXJudgement self-reflection, breakthrough, transformation, faith, maturing, transition

Hanson-Roberts, Essential Tarot (1984)



Judgement comes at times not to judge you, but to free you. Have you been feeling judged?  Well, you have a more important journey to worry about that. Time to let go.  
The journey of the Judgement card can be stressful, a struggle, and frustration, however the outcome will be one of huge relief and well worth it.

This signifies the end of an old way of life.  The Universe has plans for us and it’s time to make decisions in going forward.

Affirmation: “I am optimistic about my future.  This is the time for me to who I want to be.”

Card of the Day: Death

#XiiiDeath renewal, rebirth, transformation, end of a phase and beginning of a new cycle.


Hanson-Roberts, Essential Tarot (1984)



Despite the ominous feelings, and stigma with receiving a Death card in tarot, this is actually a very good card to receive.  Especially if you have been going through an emotionally traumatic time.  It is showing an end to that phase and cycle.  If you are going through a particularly positive time it doesn’t necessarily mean the good times will come to an end, even though this life is cyclical and based on a balance ebbing and flowing.  

Very rarely this denotes a physical death, even in times of illness, it may point to a death of the illness itself.  A specific combination of cards would need to happen to point to physical death. 

Personally, this card is coming at a precarious time for myself.  Things are definitely changing and it’s for better or worse.  I am comforted that this card is here to remind me this is a natural part of life.  Letting go of the past and things that hold us back is very important to growth.  This is a reminder to be flexible and adaptable.

Affirmation: “Transformation is part of my life’s journey; new doors are opening for me as I release the past.”

Card of the Day: V The Hierophant

#TheHierophant order, tradition, spirituality, religion, authority, power, responsibility, knowledge

|Hanson-Roberts, Essential Tarot (1984)


Hierophant sits between the two pillars of the material and spiritual suggesting a balanced between the two in ourselves.  As much as this card is about spiritual journeys it is also about learning, knowledge and wisdom here in the material world.

There is great power and authority with this card.  The crossed keys represent intellect and intuition, delicately balanced. The Hierophant holds the staff of the three worlds – physical, astral, and etheric.  Suggesting he is knowledgeable about all existence.

While this card suggests creating order and balance within our world, it also points to hanging on to out-dated belief systems that may be holding you back.  Knowledge and understanding are fluid.  Once we believe we know everything about something we stagnate and no longer grow.  We close ourselves off to possibilities and the natural flow is blocked.

Will you depend on an outside authority to govern your life, or will you take back your power and have authority over yourself?

Card of the Day: Page of Pentacles

#PageOfPentacles new beginnings, a message is on the way, new financial opportunities, spiritual growth, inner child work.

Hanson-Roberts, Essential Tarot (1984)


This is the card of the scholar, learning new things, gaining deeper knowledge and understanding into things you may already be familiar with.  This card comes at a time to tell you to stop day dreaming.  It’s time to beginning the planning stages.  If you have already taken the first steps, then its a good indication you will start to see the benefits of all the hard work put in.

New journeys may not just be financial and career based with this Page, we could be looking at a spiritual journey.  Changes, gaining experience, learning life lessons, and being spiritually wealthy may be on the horizon.  Either way be prepared for change.  This card can point to inner child work.

As for me, in the financial aspect this is great news and I am transitioning out of the planning stages and have begun taking action.  As far as the spiritual stuff, this is the running theme lately, growth, expansion, inner child and shadow work.

Card of the Day: Ace of Rods

#AceOfRods growth, new beginnings, ambition, inspiration, power. Vibrant energy.


Hanson-Roberts, Essential Tarot (1984)


This card is a great sign for the beginning of a new venture, specifically in business.  Seeds have been planted for growth.  Given the last two days, with the cards of being stuck and feeling burdened, this is a great sign that all the hard work will be well worth the effort.

This card reminds us to step outside our comfort zones because we are laying the foundation for our future.  This is a card of action. So take the next step, move ahead.  There is lots of energy and enthusiasm around you at this time.


Much Love

Card of the Day: Ten of Rods (Wands)

#TenOfRods feeling burdened, the world’s on your shoulders. Look at your lifestyle choices, know that you’re in control of what you choose to take on.


Hanson-Roberts, Essential Tarot (1984)


This is completely tying in with the Eight of Swords card drawn yesterday.  The many options, not being able to move forward, and the pressure weighing down.  Definitely.  However, there is always something good, even in the worst Tarot card.  

This is a card of the completion of one cycle and moving forward to the next.  Remember that it’s okay to say, “no” when we have already taken on enough.  Do not over commit to things, this will just make us feel pressured and resentful. Do not let pride stand in your way; let go of the notion that if you want something done right you have to do it yourself.  Do ask for help.  Do look at yourself honestly and be realistic with what you can, and are willing, to take on.

Card of the Day: Eight of Swords

#EightofSwords Feeling bound, but all the tools you need to move forward are in front of you, just take off your blindfold.


Hanson-Roberts, Essential Tarot, (1984)


In this card a blindfolded woman represents the inability to believe that you will ever be free of your current worries.  This is resonating for me today, as I work to launch my new venture.  It can be difficult to see all the choices available when blinded by stresses of everyday life.

I am currently trying to work out the best forms of media to reach out to people.  Seems like there is too many choices.  Eight, ∞ Infinity.  Copious amount of options to choice from, and it’s a matter of choosing what works.


Much Love
