I can sum this whole reading up in the words of the 20th Century #HopePunk prophetess Octavia Butler:⠀
⠀
God is Change,⠀
And in the end, ⠀
God prevails.⠀
But meanwhile… ⠀
Kindness eases Change. ⠀
Love quiets fear. ⠀
And a sweet and powerful ⠀
Positive obsession ⠀
Blunts pain, ⠀
Diverts rage, ⠀
And engages each of us ⠀
In the greatest, ⠀
The most intense ⠀
Of our chosen struggles. ⠀

The April Tarot Challenge XIV. 2 card story: Remember that there is no shame in prosperity because the more I have he more I can give and it’s okay to let the things that no longer serve me go.

The April Tarot XIII. Witches Sabbath: My Luck - My Blessings Four of Cups. This was a puzzling card for me at first but the more I sat with it the more it seemed plausible. Ideas appear to me from the aether. The Muse visits with regular frequency. This is incredible luck and an incredible blessing for sure! The Universe provides, but it’s up to me to follow through.

The April Tarot Challenge XXII. Face this- Justice (represented by Athena)/ Be honest here - The Fool (Dionysian crone). I feel obligated to be a balancing force, indeed I am responsible for my own life and happiness, my choices and their consequences, good bad and indifferent. But sometimes it feels really good to just let go in a Dionysian fervor and let someone else worry about the consequences. I have to maintain control but sometimes I would rather let chaos take the lead.

The April Tarot Challenge X. Where has my path shown true growth this year? Queen of Pentacles - I have always identified this as “my” card in any deck, and I take this as a sign I am becoming ever more me. I am enjoying my home life more and more and I am becoming more and more financially solvent as I both have ideas and then implement them. The implementation has always been my weak suit but I am getting much better at it.

#inspiringapril 2018 Day 13- Why/where do I lack inspiration? Why would I not draw the thirteenth trump on Friday the 13th? Death- I have never gracefully moved through transitions. I have to be drug most of the time, kicking and screaming and clinging to the familiar, even if it’s familiar garbage. The looming towers in the background remind me of the Twin Towers of New York City, and the news cycle I sometimes find myself so caught up in whole days, even weeks can go by and I have been so wrapped up in things I can’t really affect that I haven’t done the things that I can- my work, care for my circle so that the waves of compassion and community can hopefully emanate throughout. I need to practice just surrendering and focusing on what I can do and be.

#inspiringapril 2018 Day 12- My key ingredients for an inspiring day- I chose to lay three cards down because of the use of the plural ingredients, and also because I believe the magic happens in the interaction of the cards. So I have Ace of Wands - Seven of Pentacles - Ten of Wands. The Ace is easy, inspiration seemingly from on high. All I have to do is receive. The first thing I see on the Seven of Pentacles is the dog, which yes, my dog is my best buddy and I heart him. The Seven interacts with the Ten of Wands to reinforce something that I have long known holds true for me- The Muse doesn’t come at a whim but I call her by putting my behind in the chair and fingers to keyboard and doing my work. I am responsible for my quantity of work. I have to let the Divine be responsible for the quality, a notion I am not altogether comfortable with but my comfort matters little.

These cards are from Modern Spellcaster’s Tarot.

#inspiringapril 2018 Day 11- Inspiring sign from Source : Death. Everything I want is on the other side of fear, and everything I fear will dissipate as I choose to step into it.

#inspiringapril 2018 Day 10- How can I inspire others to take action? Eight of Swords- I am moved by the stories of those who have had it hard and done it anyway. So I can inspire others by showing how I have become the instrument of my own salvation, even in a dark place where it didn’t seem possible. I can move forward even when I feel I can’t, because staying still isn’t an option either.

#aprilfoolstarotchallenge Day 15- In a deep, smoky voice, smooth as molasses, the Devil croons, “What do I fear about myself that can become a source of power?” The Chariot- whoa, Nelly, where do I begin with this card? Immediately I am struck that a symmetry and mirroring exists between the specific imagery and colors of these cards. In the Devil I see myself as one of the chained figures, subject to dark whims outside my control. In the Chariot, I am the driver, and I am the one who subjects the beasts to my whims. I fear being controlled, but I also fear the power of taking control. I display a true aspect of Libra as my ascendant in often just walking a line to the beat of my own drum, choosing neither to follow nor lead. I go back a couple cards to my lack of making decisions and this reading reflects that even more strongly. Then I consider that the Chariot is my life purpose card, and I know that at times I feel fearful of my destiny, because to embrace it means no going back. Yet, not embracing it really is not an option. Not being who I truly am leaves my energy weak, power diluted.

#aprilfoolstarotchallenge Day 14- Temperance never spills a drop and never takes her eyes from mine as she sweetly asks, “What can teach me inner and outer balance in my life?” The Emperor. This rendition of the Emperor carries the strong masculine energy of The Horned One, the promise that the ruler has ties his fate to his land, while reminding me in the crescent moon that feminine energy is also present. I need both. I need the discipline and boundaries the Emperor which are the specialty of the Emperor, and I need to be tempered by my intuition as represented by the moon. Not too harsh with my lines in the sand, but never ignoring the soft still voice inside me.

#aprilfoolstarotchallenge Day 13- From the solemn skeletal face of Death a soft whisper emanates, “What aspect do I need to cut off?” The Hanged Man-I often stay perfectly still simply because I either don’t know what to do next or because I fear the ramifications of making a choice. I often bind myself up in the fortunes of those I am close to. I need to simply make a choice, and do so quickly. It may be wrong, and that’s okay. There are few times in life when a wrong choice is disastrous, but I have always survived those times and I always will in the future too. My indecision needs to go, as well as my misplaced sense of responsibility for other people.

#aprilfoolstarotchallenge Day 12- No more perturbed by his upside down state than by the wind wafting through his hair, in the most natural voice The Hanged Man asks, “Where is my passion for life?” This Hermit is very me- a dog, a book, a night pushed too late because the dog and the book are too lovely to sleep on. My dog and my book and my quiet time, my learning and introspection, those are the things I am passionate about, for sure.

The April Tarot Challenge XVI. Reminders III: I forgive myself for not always being the kind of mother I wanted to be and for not being the kind of daughter my mother wanted and loved. I forgive myself for all those aborted ideas that I held in my hand, that needed me to give them the breath of life, and I couldn’t find it in me to do that. I embrace letting go of guilt and shame and moving towards a better future even if I can’t see it clearly from where I am. I don’t need to.
