QUICK NOTE – Things are still a bit hectic, so while I’ll have these posts scheduled to upload every Tuesday at 8am EST, I’m not sure when I’ll have them up on Facebook and such. Feel free to bookmark the Tarot Tuesday category page, and you’re welcome to share the posts on your wall, or tweet, pin, stumble, tumble, and whatever other social media strikes your fancy. Hopefully things will quiet down around here soon – I wrote a bit about what’s going on HERE and the latest update is HERE, if you want to take a peek.
Now, without further ado, welcome to Tarot Tuesday for the week of August 22nd! My monthly free Tarot card readings were so popular, I decided to make them a weekly feature. If you want to catch the next one, be sure to follow my blog, stalk my Facebook, Twitter, or other social media (all my links are in the widget on the left). I shout out just about everywhere when I have a new post up.
For those wondering, I use my Universal Waite Smith Tarot Deck to draw the cards, but since it’s so well loved (I’ve owned it for a bazillion years), I then substitute my Radiant Deck for the photographs. Also, while it probably doesn’t need to be said, I’m saying it anyway – this is for fun, and my messages should never be a substitute for your own good judgement and common sense. In fact, that applies to most things in life – if your gut tells you it’s not right, always listen.
Now, on to the reading! Pick the card (or cards) that you’re drawn to, then scroll down to the bottom of this post for the card reveal and my short interpretation of what to expect in the upcoming week.
Okay, you’ve picked your card, right?

This!
1. Nine of Swords
It’s not that bad. You know the facts, and they aren’t great. But it’s not the end of the world either. Stop focusing on the fear and negativity, because all it’s doing is blowing the problem way out of proportion. No sense in wasting energy worrying about the “what ifs” – instead, look for something distracting to help you break out of this cycle of, “doom and gloom, DOOM AND GLOOM!” Maybe grab your favorite, “gotta get out of this funk” movie (mine is Stardust), and forget about your worries for a while.
2. The Lovers
Love. True love. You’ve found someone or something that speaks to your soul. Now comes the hard part – keeping that love going. See how (on the card) the man is looking at the woman, but she is staring at the angelic creature in the sky? He has to trust when she says she’s seeing it, and she needs to communicate what she sees. Trust and communication. If this is about your soul’s passion, you need to trust yourself and communicate with those involved. Did I mention trust and communicate? *grin*
3. Wheel of Fortune
Lady Luck is smiling! Oh wait – that should be, “The Goddess Who Must Not Be Named.”*grin* Regardless, your luck is changing! Not only are good things heading your way, but this card is a great reminder that when things aren’t going as you hoped, just be patient for the wheel to turn back around again. Stay as positive as possible, focus on the bright side of things, then (and this is the most important thing), take some steps to make a change. Soon enough, the wheel will spin back around and you’ll appreciate being up all the more for having been down.

Spot on! I chose 2, the Lovers, although it’s not lover related I could relate to the ‘trust and communicate’ message 🙂
Awesomeness, Shelley! 😀
I picked 2. I dont have anyone in my life but I could so work on the communication and trust aspects!
Yep, Theresa – seems like I’m forever working on those myself! Bright blessings to you!
