The Weekly Three: April 17th, 2023
A Solar Eclipse occurs in Aries and Mercury goes retrograde in Taurus to shake us up this week.
Welcome to The Weekly Three! Each Monday, I share three cards to help you focus your intuitive energy in real life and take action with intention.
I pull these cards with the collective energy of my community in mind, but if you want a custom spread of your very own, you can get it right here.
Stuck, unbalanced, resistant energy is in the spotlight this week. Oopsie…
The VIII of Swords shows a person who is bound, blindfolded and surrounded by a cage of swords, but there are no other beings visible in the image. Who actually tied them up? Who’s holding them back?
The suit of Swords speaks to our mental experience of life: communication, logic, mental health, thoughts…
This card immediately brings to mind the idea of our thoughts being our own worst enemies. Examine your thoughts and beliefs and see where you could be holding yourself back, worrying yourself into a corner or stopping your communication before you even start.
The II of Pentacles is reversed, and instead of someone successfully juggling responsibilities, we see someone dropping the ball. Maybe you’re so hung up on an idea of how something should be playing out, you’re ignoring the way it actually is playing out.
Remember that the suit of Pentacles is all about our physical resources. Yes, that can mean money, AND it can also mean our physical health and vitality.
Balance in either of those areas isn’t possible without accepting what’s real about a situation. Might you be overcommitted in some way or other?
Death, reversed is also showing MAJOR resistance to a shift that needs to happen but can’t because you may be holding it at bay, ignoring it or lying to yourself about what has to happen.
This card can also indicate the occurrence of an unwanted change and struggling to accept and adapt.
The Big Idea:
Are you really giving yourself what you need right now? Or are you operating on a wish and a prayer?
Are you being honest enough about what REALLY needs to happen (as opposed to what you wish was happening?)
Look at the places in your business where you need to reframe, rethink, accept what is and reroute.
Focus your energy and actions there, and you could move through some major (maybe self-imposed, maybe not) blocks.💛
Thanks for reading the first installment of The Weekly Three! You’ll see them on Mondays from here on out. 🤓
Until next week,
