Mi-Shell Posted January 29, 2021 Posted January 29, 2021 Lots of health trouble and upheaval here, so I will hold on to my Ironwing deck.
VGimlet Posted January 29, 2021 Author Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) I'm using the Prairie Tarot for the next month. I can't remember if I've used it for a month or not, but I'm pretty sure it was on my "more later" list. Very stressful day yesterday, and I'm glad it's my two days off. Going for some peace, some writing, and some Sims 4, and maybe a little World of Warcraft. And reading. Of course. Ignoring the chore list today. Because I can. Heh. Positive energy your way Mi-Shell. Edited January 29, 2021 by VGimlet
Amberjune Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 Will be working with the Majestic Earth Tarot and the Isis Oracle. Many blessings to you Mi-Shell, may well-being and replenishment be steadily with you and the people in your life. Wishing you a blissfully relaxing weekend, VG! Weather here is stormy, so I'll read plenty and maybe play some Cyberpunk.
Bodhiseed Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 Hugs and thoughts for calm and comfort to all who need them. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 I'm in this week with the Wild Unknown paired with the Pictish Oracle.
AJ-ish/Sharyn Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 ditto good thoughts expressed above! Green Wheel Oracle for me, Imbolc comes the 1st. Thanks VG!
vulprix Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 Hi, everyone!! 💐 I will be having fun with the CBD Tarot de Marseille~
Bodhiseed Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 This week I'll be using the Wild Unknown Tarot, created and self-published by Kim Krans. I'll also be using the Pictish Oracle, created by myself and brought to life in 3-D form by an Etsy craftswoman. Today's draws are the Devil and Wolf: The quality of our life is determined by our mind’s response to the circumstances of our life. It is not determined directly by the circumstances. —Yoshin David Radin What do we do when, metaphorically speaking, our feet are in the fire? How do we handle a tsunami-sized wave of stress and anxiety that is related to external situations beyond our control? Intense emotions often result in binges of some kind, whether food, sleep, shopping or alcohol. While these actions offer a temporary distraction, they are neither beneficial nor healthy for an extended period of time. For the Picts, the wolf represented a marauder who took their livestock and presented a danger to night travelers. It symbolizes a predator, especially to the unwary. Both these draws suggest a need for a consistent spiritual practice that can help ground us when circumstances pull the rug out from beneath us. Now is the time for starting, however. As Rick Hanson said, "When the storm comes, you're left with what's already inside you."

For me, the first trump in a traditional deck that really forces responsibility onto the querent 😄 I love the wolf figure—seems I’m having a case of too much sympathy for the devil today 😉

VGimlet Posted February 4, 2021 Author Posted February 4, 2021 I've always been fond of the devil, the personification of sex, drugs and rock and roll, lol. Many moons ago someone said, "When I see the Devil I know sex is going to be involved." which stuck in my mind, and makes me smile when the devil comes up (even when it doesn't mean that in the spread I'm reading,)
