1 - Knight of Pentacles: This card is about realizing that your home, and everything you need, is already with you... wherever you are. I think this is a beautiful card to represent a spirit guide. Someone or thing that encourages you to slow down, to take it easy, and open your eyes to what you actually have in front of you and within you.

2 - King of Cups: My spirit guide is here to help me heal. Plain and simple. The King of Cups in this suit is someone who helps me when I'm open, plain, vulnerable, but, mostly important, open to healing. It's a two way street, and they will be there for me if I show up.

3 - Four of Wands: You wouldn't really think this card would be something I should ignore. But it's easy to get caught up in others, pulled into the work they're doing - maybe just for themselves. My spirit guide is there to remind me that I'm the most important person to me.

4 - 10 of Cups reversed: I love that this card shows dolphins jumping from the heart chakra to the third eye. This is continually my struggle, and, obviously, my spirit guide would be concerned with that.

5 - Page of Cups reversed: It's OK to think I need to spend a little bit more time in my cage. And I cannot rely on others to help me make the journey out; it's something I need to do on my own.

Feb. 2015 Challenge Wrap Up

So I wanted to take some time and reflect without cards on both of the daily tarot challenges I partook in this month. (Spread a Day 2  and Feb. Daily Draw)

Things I've Learned:

NEVER EVER SIGN UP FOR TWO DAILY DRAWS AGAIN.  I mean I appreciate the experience and I loved what it's done for me, but two at once is a bit more than I can handle, so if I decide to do daily pulls in the future it will be only ONE challenge.  Daily draws in general are just terrible for me, when I self read, I only need it about once a month, and doing it daily twice was just repetitive over kill, and also caused me to hyper focus on things in my life amplifying my stress when I use tarot as a meditation device to reduce stress.   It's been kind of eye opening and I'm happy to have my threshold tested, but I'm be glad to be able to breath for a few days because no self readings!

I defiantly have a better grasp of the cards meanings over all, I can read faster than ever (I'm still slow as a turtle, but a faster turtle!); and I can read pretty comfortably with the new decks that I focused on this month (deviating artwork throws me for a loop, Thoth deck: NEVER EVER), but I feel sad for my 1st deck (Hanson Roberts) She's an old friend I've forgotten about this month and I'm going to crack her out and use her a bit.

I figured out some valuable information to include in my readings guidelines, Some things can only be learned by doing and subsequently having the problem crop up.  I know the "rules" aren't going to stop people from trying to push the envelope, but at least I have a better publicly listed guide where my black and white ethics are for tarot reading.  I don't want to waste a client's time waiting on a reading/reply when there's no chance I'd pull cards for their question.    There's always another reader who is willing, so it helps everyone out in the end.

I'd also like to give a BIG THANK YOU to anyone who allowed me to read for them during the month of February.

Almost all of you gave me feedback and cherry on top, the satisfaction rate was unbelievable.  For someone who has just started reading for strangers, it's been a huge help and confidence booster!  I cannot express my gratitude enough for taking the time to send some feedback after you got your reading.  It really meant the world to me.  Lame pun intended.

Now onward to whatever March holds and Beyond!

#Spreadaday2, day 22 (Finally ACTUALLY finished, now...  XD)

Deck: Deviant Moon

What is one thing about me that everyone else can see? 2 of Swords reversed

You are one of those people with two sides to your personality that has a hard time reconciling them.  You seem to be coming from two different directions about many things, and it can make decision making hard for you.

What is one thing about me that is kept hidden from everyone? The Star reversed

While other people may look at you and see someone who is very optimistic, you have a side to yourself that tends to look only at the ill.  Here the star keeps her light eye open and her dark eye closed, while in reverse she likely reverses these; thus she looks to the "darker" side of things and doesn't see the good things right in front of her.

Hope that wasn't too prickly!
