Sunday Tarot: March 29, 2020: 8 of Air (Swords)

Sunday Tarot:  March 29, 2020

"The Good Tarot" by Colette Baron-Reid

8 of Air (Swords)

Release from denial,

seeing things as they are, clarity

"With Spirit as my side encouraging me, I open my eyes to see things as they really are.  

To be disillusioned is to free myself from illusions that keep me from the growth and healing that I deserve, so I bid goodbye to illusions that have clouded my vision.

Honesty gives me strength and courage to face whatever I have to face."

Interpretation:  While the 8 of Swords usually depicts bondage and self-imprisonment, mental confinement and anguish, The Good Tarot tells a slightly different story. Even through disillusionment, we can find courage through self-honesty and looking at situations with clarity.  "The truth will set you free."

Wednesday Oracle: March 25, 2020: 16 Coyote Spirit

"The Spirit Animal Oracle" by Colette Baron-Reid

16 Coyote Spirit

"Trust in Divine Detours"

Oracle Message: 

"Do you find that you are being led on a strange detour in your life right now?

Does it seem that what appears to be the next right action and the right choice, best situation, or fabulous relationship unexpectedly turns into the opposite--or just disappears into thin air, as if you've been tricked? 

Coyote Spirit's trickster energy is designed to bring you into situations to teach you lessons you have forgotten to learn.  Perhaps you need a taste of failure before you experience success, a need to feel disappointment before you can truly appreciate the joy, love and prosperity that is coming up for you.  Perhaps you are revisiting a pattern you forgot wasn't in alignment with the life you intended to co-create, being reminded that gratitude, not complacency, will keep you awake and aware of all that is available to you in this moment. 

Coyote Spirit reminds you to laugh about the unexpected twists, to develop humility and gratitude while releasing your attachments to the form of your desires.  Even when you suddenly find yourself on a detour, wondering when you will get back on track to manifesting what you desire, remember that Spirit has a plan and wants the best for you. 

Trust in divine order now.  Coyote Spirit is a divine helper;  no matter what seems to go astray, things are exactly as they are supposed to be."

Interpretation:  With all the chaos, social distancing, working from home or not working at all, this Coronavirus crisis has us all on a strange detour.  We may have expected this spring to work out in the usual way, with the usual amount of control over our respective lives.  Instead, there is "something in the way," physical, mental or emotional barriers to where we want to be.  This is what is supposed to happen for humanity on planet Earth right now, even though life has thrown all of us a curve ball. Remember to be grateful and don't forget to laugh.

Sunday Tarot: March 22, 2020: 3 of Fire (Wands)

Sunday Tarot:  March 22, 2020

"The Good Tarot" by Colette Baron-Reid

3 of Fire (Wands)

Expansion of opportunities,

the fullness of creativity, achievement

"I am on the right path toward my success.

I have an abundance of opportunities before me. 

I need to trust myself, for I can make good choices for myself and co-create situations and relationships that are in harmony with my heart's desire."

Interpretation:  Creativity and business are emphasized here.  Your ideas are taking shape in the world, but have not yet coalesced. Your project, idea or business has just been launched.  This is a good time to ask for help or advice.  Think positive!  Be willing to see your project through. Set goals for your venture.  It's only when we make a commitment that our ideas have a chance for success.

Wednesday Oracle: March 18, 2020: 63 Vulture Spirit R

"The Spirit Animal Oracle" by Colette Baron-Reid

63 Vulture Spirit

"Nothing is wasted."

Protection Message (Reversed):

"Do you wish you could run away from your past or deny your mistakes?  'Not so fast,' says Vulture Spirit.  You have gained something valuable from the experience.  Let your grief or anger move through you and soon your emotions will transform, for you will come to see that you have learned and grown. 

The alchemy of transformation is a gift from Spirit, so never disown what embarrassed, disappointed, or shamed you.  It will soon be a source of great wisdom and strength for you as you work with the magic that allows miracles to be created out of sadness and beauty to arise from ugliness. 

Vulture Spirit wants you to know that you embody beauty, and the alchemical transformation of the past is happening already. 

Hang in there, you are so loved, and so much beauty is waiting to come out of all of this."

Interpretation:  The past can be difficult.  To remember.  To process.  It can take years to understand why something happened the way it did and to find meaning in mistakes, disappointments and shame.  Even happy memories can be painful.  The losses add up over time.  It's important to feel "all the feels," instead of shoving the past in a drawer like it didn't  matter then and doesn't matter now.  Allow the pain, anger and grief to transform into something better, something with its own beauty and grace.
