Your Daily Tarot...

Two of Pentacles

It's time to do the financial balancing act. Either you've spent too much on Wants and not enough on Needs, or you've been way too practical and need to loosen up Abe's collar to spend a little bit on a treat for yourself.

Either way, a semi-serious look inside your wallet and bank account is warranted. Don't get all crazy--there's plenty of time to self-correct.

Knight of Cups

Someone might come to your emotional rescue today, so take heart, breathe, and hang in there. Your sore emotions will be soothed. You will receive soup and tea. You will receive a blanket and a teddy bear. And a nice nap.

Your Daily Tarot...

Ten of Swords

An inevitable ending, with ugly words and even uglier thoughts, is quite possible today. Not very uplifting, is it? But like The Tower, this crashing blow was a looong time coming. You have tolerated a metric s**t-ton of disrespect, insane emotional outbursts, and screamy tirades. The foundation was shaky to begin with, but now the whole damn thing is rumbling in preparation for disintegrating into dust.

Enough of this utter rubbish.

Whatever was brewing, it's going to boil over and it *must.* Whatever you're engaged with is super unhealthy and leaving you raw and bleeding. It is time to stand up, and keep standing in the rubble. Once it is done, step over the debris and walk on. You *will* survive this, stronger and more powerful than ever.

Page of Wands, Reversed

Mindset of the Day:

I'm broke, but I'm happy
I'm poor, but I'm kind
I'm short, but I'm healthy, yeah
I'm high, but I'm grounded
I'm sane, but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost, but I'm hopeful, baby

And what it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five

I feel drunk, but I'm sober
I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired, but I'm working, yeah
I care, but I'm restless
I'm here, but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry, baby

And what it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flicking a cigarette

And what it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a peace sign

I'm free, but I'm focused
I'm green, but I'm wise
I'm hard, but I'm friendly, baby
I'm sad, but I'm laughing
I'm brave, but I'm chicken s**t
I'm sick, but I'm pretty, baby

And what it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
Well, I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is playing a piano
And what it all comes down to my friends, yeah
Is that everything is just fine, fine, fine
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab

The Hanged Man

Sometimes turning yourself upside down is necessary to change your perspective. Today, try empyting out your judgments and opinions and see a situation through someone else's eyes. You must *choose* to do this--that's the key to the greatest understanding.

Ten of Wands

Christ on a cracker, don't give up now! The road is long, with many a winding turn--listen, I won't start quoting song lyrics now but you need to keep moving forward. This chapter is coming to a close and the proverbial new door is opening.

As you are trudging along, consider casting off some of the luggage you've picked up. You don't need all that s**t--his s**t, her s**t, their s**t, anyone or anything's s**t. Let it go. Surrender it to the roadside--Address Unknown.

And keep going. This particular life path is near the end. A new day is dawning.

The Empress

Traditionally, this card is all about fertility, growth, rebirth, abundance, connection to the natural world, the divine femini--

but hold on. Many of us are exhausted from all the growth, all the flowering, all the sweat it takes to raise something up from nothing, birthing, nurturing, releasing...because Summer is gasping its last breaths and instead of bright green and abundant, we are withering and falling off the vine.

So let us look instead toward the *other* aspect of The Empress, when she turns from mother to crone, from Persephone to Demeter, to Baba Yaga, Hecate, and Kali. The Harvest. The cutting of the sheaves, the wilting and the dying, the falling onto and into the earth. The scythe in the fields, the gathering and storing.

Because, dammit: we are tired.

As we lean into Autumn, allow yourself deep rest, cool water, cool breezes, cool nights in the darkness with the diamond-like stars. A new chill will settle, will awaken a different energy in you--the falling away, the opening of spaces, the vastness of your heart and spirit. It is much gentler in some ways, less riotous and violent.

Allow the emptying out.

Four of Pentacles

You want financial security, but squeezing Abe until he squeaks is not projecting any sort of Law of Manifestation. Sometimes you've got to go back to the witchy ways of "whatever you give returns to you." And that means building financial stability while giving where giving is needed.

Find your favorite need today and toss a few coins into the jar. Random acts of financial kindness are good for the soul.

Six of Swords, Reversed

If you are swirling in s**tty memories, regrets, humiliations, wrong moves, and been-there-done-that scenarios...it's time to shut that movie down and get TF out of the theater.

What is done is done. What is gone is gone. Thinking about it will change nothing. Letting it rule your life will change nothing.

It's time to go forward. If you've made a mess, start cleaning it up. If you regret how something ended, make amends and move on. If you miss the good ol' days, start making these days the good ol' ones. Time marches on and so do you, so don't waste it looking back--you're not going that way.

Your Daily Tarot...

Five of Pentacles

I dunno who this guy is supposed to depict or why the card looks so happy-happy joy-joy because the Five of Pentacles is about having a scarcity mindset and fretting about money.

Oh, right. He's the bum you married and he took all your money and you had to return home like a schmuck on a Greyhound bus paid for by your parents via Western Union. Or maybe that's just me.

ANYway--you've gotta turn THIS card upside down and find your financial blessings in this mess. Look at what you DO have, not what you THINK you need. Or want. If you have even half a sandwich to stick in your mouth at lunch as opposed to a stale Werther's you dug out of the back of a desk drawer, you're blessed.
