NOTE – Because the Universe has an amazing sense of humor, I now have a splint on my right hand, and orders from the Urgent Care doc to let my thumb rest and heal. I had a week’s worth of posts uploaded & scheduled, so I’ve connected WP Publicize to auto-share them to Facebook, Twitter, Google +, and Tumblr. Hoping to catch up with everyone next week.
Welcome to Tarot Tuesday for the week of October 10th! My monthly free Tarot card readings were so popular, I decided to make them a weekly feature. If you want to be sure to catch the next one, you can follow my blog on WordPress or Bloglovin’, stalk my Facebook, Twitter, or other social media (all my links are in the widget on the left), or simply bookmark this site and set an alarm on your phone for Tuesdays at 8am EST.
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. And for the record, I take a new picture of the card backs every week – first, I do the cards face up, then flip them over and take a snap of the back. I add the numbers and such with Canva, and use the picture from the top of the post to create the blog graphic.
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?

1 Five of Pentacles
You are not alone. You’re lost. You’ve had a bunch of setbacks, and you feel like you have nothing left. No worries – there is help available, right around the corner, but you have to swallow your pride and ask. Things will be better soon, and you’ll know who your true friends are. As Kate Bush said to Peter Gabriel, “Don’t give up ’cause you have friends. Don’t give up you’re not the only one. Don’t give up no reason to be ashamed. Don’t give up you still have us. Don’t give up now we’re proud of who you are. Don’t give up you know it’s never been easy. Don’t give up ’cause I believe there’s a place, there’s a place where we belong.”
2. Five of Wands
Little fish meets big pond. You have that thing that you’re really good at, but lately you feel like you’re just one of many people who are good at it too. You’re afraid you don’t stand out from the competition. The bad news is, you’re right. The good news is, all you need to do is to get out there and battle for your spot. Once you’ve joined the fight for supremacy, you’ll get a sense of what you can do to make yourself stand out from all the others. Remind yourself, “in a world of Muggles, be Hermione“. Staying on the sidelines and bemoaning the fact that no one pays attention to you won’t get you the attention you want or deserve. Fight for it!
3. Page of Swords
Storm’s coming. There’s a quote by an unknown author floating around social media that reminds me of this card – “Fate whispers to the warrior, “You cannot withstand the storm. And the warrior whispers back, “I am the storm.” You have the energy, the knowledge, and the drive to get what you want. The biggest challenge comes in harnessing the power of the lightning, before the storm passes. Grab it quick while you can, and “heart to heart you’ll win“!

I AM THE STORM! Thanks doll. Shared & shizzle x
For the first time, I couldn’t pick just one. They all spoke to me. In reading them all, that’s just what I needed. Thank you! Blessed be.
Get in there and fight. Got it!
Thank you – one of the cards spoke to me and the explanation was spot on so thank you x
Very fitting this week. Especially because of this: “in a world of Muggles, be Hermione.” Sealed the deal for me! 🙂
I’ve been so behind on everything I haven’t done this is a while. I’m glad I did today though, I liked my card and it’s meaning. It’s made me feel better x
Hope you heal soon…..you eejit!! 🙂
Don’t give up is exactly what I need today! I had a tough day in work and haven’t done any proper work on my manuscript in a week! But I’m going to edit a few words 🙂
I am the storm too! I like it! 🙂
Awesome!
