Mystic Pull Tarot

Deck: Northern Animal Tarot

The Star:

It’s a new moon on the cusp of the longest night of the year, and the star is shining brightly to remind us the sun is about to make its return. You may be in a moment of darkness, but there are sources of light to inspire and guide you if you look for them.

Five of Pentacles Rv:

This card of false poverty shows you might not be looking for inspiration at the moment. Sometimes things just suck, but don’t turn away from the good things in life.

Nine of Swords:

You have been letting stress and worry rule your thinking, and that is understandable. There is a looming unknown and the journey to learn more just seems too daunting and scary.

Queen of Pentacles:

This card is to reassure you that nurturing and taking care of your physical health is necessary and an act of self love. The first steps you need to take will feel the worst, but are necessary for healing and restoring strength.

10 of Pentacles Rv: 

You had big hopes for a prosperous year, but it hasn’t quite turned out that way. You hit way more speed bumps than you ever anticipated, but you’re hanging in there, all things considered.

Four of Wands:

Despite not achieving what you wanted, there is still plenty of reason to celebrate! Gatherings with friends and family will be great medicine. Take advantage of the solstice season and the opportunities to reconnect.

Four of Pentacles: 

Keep a hold on your savings and don’t go crazy with your spending. Less is more for the time being. Give of yourself and gift your creativity rather than your dollars. It might be a little while before you can get back on track financially.

The Luminary Rv:

Unlike The Star of hope after The Tower, The Luminary is the spark that inspires The Fool’s journey! She is the perfect companion for the dark part of the year in the northern hemisphere, bringing light and warmth to the cold months. Showing reversed says you have been dwelling in hopelessness and afraid to make a leap of faith. Let in the little sparks of optimism and acknowledge the small wins to guide you through the darkness!

Judgement:

You feel called to something greater. Maybe this is a sudden new revelation, but more likely it’s been simmering in the background for a while now waiting for a chance to bubble up. 

Page of Cups and Page of Swords Rv:

I’m reading these two together because I see them as a push-pull of the same thing. On one hand (Page of Cups), you feel like you’re ready for anything and the inspiration is flowing. On the other hand (Page of Swords Rv), you’re not putting any of your big ideas into practice. You have the enthusiasm but not the confidence. But look back to Judgement and realize this is not a whim, it’s integral to who you are!

Ten of Wands:

Even so, be ready to bear this heavy load alone for the most part. Though you might have people helping you here and there, the plan and the progress are all you. You are responsible for seeing his through, so pace yourself for the long haul. 

Deck: Golden Girls Tarot

The Hanged Man Rv:

You’re feeling stuck or hung up on something. Every day seems like a repeat of the day before and you are not seeing the progress you want. Instead of seeing a new perspective as indicated by the Hanged Man, you’re focused on what you would rather be doing and not on what is right in front of you.

Death Rv:

But this is literally not a life or death situation. You’re still feeling chained down, but the worst is over! You are regaining some freedom from what was holding you back. What you need now is stability and momentum.

Five of Pentacles:

This is all about the attitude of “lacking”. You would rather go without than reach out for help because you don’t want to be seen as needy. But the glow of the window is a reminder that there are people around you who are looking out for you and can help you along. You only need to ask.

Deck: Cosmobeings by Joanna Nelson

TLDR: All suits are represented here, so whatever is going on with you at the moment is effecting your creative/spiritual side, your thought process, your feelings, and your physical or financial security. But seeing as everything is in the realm of minor arcana, this will not be a long cycle.

Two of Wands Rv:

Your plans for a big move or change have been turned upside down. Now you’re reevaluating your plans and seeing which direction is most realistic for you in light of the new circumstances. Get comfortable because you’re not going anywhere for a while.

King of Swords Rv:

As a result, you might be doubting whether your plans were well thought out, but there is no reasonable way you could have seen this new circumstance coming. You might be short on good ideas for the moment, and that’s forgivable. You don’t have to be the leader right now.

Four of Cups:

You may need to pass up a good opportunity that will leave your feeling disappointed. But, again, this is not a consequence of your actions. You did everything you should to prepare for that opportunity, and you’d be perfectly capable of taking it on if not for this current situation creating an obstacle for you.

Eight of Pentacles Rv:

For not you might find yourself retreading the same ground, plugging away at the same old same old when you fully know you’ve *been ready for the next stage. Don’t mistake this for holding yourself back, you’re just maintaining your level best. This is temporary, and these things will turn themselves around.

Deck: Mystic Cats

Queen of Cups Rv:

This weekend is a time of protecting your emotional energy from anyone or anything that could deplete you. Tread lightly with difficult people or situations if they are unavoidable. Give yourself space to recharge and do something that makes you happy.

High Priestess:

I heard something recently that said, “Intuition speaks in statements. Anxiety speaks in questions.” Follow your intuition as you take care of yourself and the tasks immediately in front of you. Ignore the spinning questions and trust that the time and work you previously invested is still manifesting for you while you rest.

King of Cups:

If you accept the advice of the Queen of Cups and High Priestess, you will be able to call upon the emotional control and diplomacy when the opportunity presents itself. Like I said, there may be challenges that force their way into your path but you will be equipped to handle them with grace.

Four of Pentacles Rv:

You may feel like you are being greedy with your time or attention in this moment, but you are simply guarding your resources and protecting yourself. Very few people are truly entitled to your time and effort, and you decide who that is. You can hold boundaries gently and with love.

Deck: Tone Le Lone 

Ten of Pentacles:

You have found a measure of stability in your life and are integrating different aspects of yourself to achieve wholeness. You are more settled now and placing value on relationships and experiences instead of income or reputation. 

Three of Wands:

You are achieving the progress you aimed for and expanded yourself in new ways! Things are moving and shaking for you. You are achieving most goals you set for yourself. 

Three of Swords:

And yet, there is some kind of monkey wrench in the gears. Something has you feeling deeply disappointed or just really wishing for something different. This weekend, meditate on what this might be and how to process through it. 

Deck: Aquarian Tarot

Ace of Pentacles:

A new beginning is on the horizon. Could be a new job, or chance at entrepreneurship. This is a chance for material abundance and comfort. However, it’s going to take some sacrifice and short-term hardship.

Three of Cups Rv:

Consider this weekend’s festivities a last hurrah for a while. After this weekend, put your party hat away. You’ll need your space and solitude to focus. You’ll be a little bit of a party pooper temporarily. 

Eight of Wands Rv:

Things are going to get *busy*! You may feel overwhelmed, and you may fall behind but you’ll catch the momentum. Set aside anything that isn’t urgent and don’t get distracted by other peoples’ priorities.

Knight of Pentacles Rv:

Self-discipline will be the biggest challenge. You may hit the wall and boredom sets in. You may swing the other way and be a perfectionist. This is all part of the process for whatever this Ace of Pentacles moment is. Stay the course and the reward is yours!

Page of Wands:

Page of Wands returns again this week, telling me you are still filled with inspiration! You have embarked on some kind of passion project that is really revving your engine!

Page of Cups RV:

However excited you are about your new ideas, you are finding yourself easily frustrated by obstacles and you lack the experience needed to navigate around them. This comes with time and practice.

The Devil:

You might notice you feel chained to unhealthy patterns like procrastinating, avoiding conflict, or making irresponsible choices. Instead of tackling these challenges head on, you are indulging in unproductive fantasy, which will ultimately pull you further away from your new endeavor.

The Sun Rv:

You may be overly optimistic about this passion project, and small setbacks are really getting you down. But this is only a matter of perspective; the sun is always joy and abundance if you’re looking at it the right way.

You only fail if you never try! Keep up the optimism, but be patient when you hit roadblocks. Seek out the expertise of others and be open to their guidance. Do the boring and hard things first so that you are laying the groundwork for success brick by brick!

Deck: Northern Animal Tarot

This is a New Moon reading!

The Star:

You are seeing the first signs of light guiding us into a brighter future. We have experienced a major “tower moment” of utter catastrophe, and even though the bricks are still falling and the embers glowing, you see just a glimmer of hope. Hang onto it!

Page of Wands Rv:

You’re full of new inspiration! However, you’re afraid to start and feel a bit insecure sharing it with others at the moment. Actually, this is perfect timing because it’s a New Moon…

New Moon:

This is a time to plant seeds, metaphorically speaking. Brainstorm, make plans, research your new or rekindled passion, It’s perfectly OK to keep things on the low; your ideas are still in development. Enjoy the quiet phase of ideation this week and take good notes for later!

Ace of Swords Rv:

This is a new opportunity for intellectual growth or education. You are embarking on something that requires learning new skills and absorbing ideas. Be patient and give yourself time. The reversed sword is pointed directly at you, so easy does it. 

Seven of Wands:

As you gain some mastery of this new endeavor, you should get ready, and then stay ready. You never know when the opportunity is going to come, and you don’t want to be caught unprepared. And be ready to fight for it, there is fierce competition!
