Raven Moon’s Weekly Tarot Card Reading

This week's tarot reading includes the card, "Lys of the Shadows”, who represents healing the shadows, self-esteem, and addictions. Lys is trying to help people develop true self-respect and self-esteem, but she has to start much further down the scale of idealism than that. She tries to inspire practical help for those who need it most. She is the inspiration for the first wobbly steps taken by a damaged soul towards healing. Her presence in a reading indicates that something that had seemed lost and fixed in that loss is now open to healing. Someone is ready to begin, with help, the climb out of the inner darkness. There is hope here, and a need for loving kindness tempered by practicality. If you call upon this... Read More.

This week's tarot reading includes the card, “Gloominous Doom” which represents self-defeat, self-pity, self-destruction, and taking care of ourselves. It is time to face the fact that our attitudes and beliefs about ourselves are our own. We may have learned them from others, but the others  are not responsible for them in the here and now. We are. If we choose self-pity and pessimism, we make a choice that makes our lives worse. When this card appears in a reading, it indicates that this is a time when understanding that concept is especially important -  a time when there is some sort of crunch in the situation that offers someone the opportunity to notice and change such self-destructive habits. If it is yourself, you know what you need... Read More.

This week’s reading includes the card “Tobaira of the Waters” which represents emotions, serenity, meditation, and gracefully accepting change. Water is mutable, changeable, fluid, and Tobaira speaks to us of a particular kind of change – change of emotions and possibly a change in health. We have important choices to make about how we meet those changes and where we let them take us – towards the calm, flowing purity of the healing waters or the boiling cauldron of hot temper and steamy emotions. The choice is obvious, but we sometimes forget that we have the choice. Tobaira reminds us that we do have a choice, and making it, wisely or unwisely, determines our future.

This week’s tarot reading involves “Nelys the Alchemyst”. She represents inner transformation, and deep change. When Nelys turns up in a reading, get ready for things to happen, inwardly and outwardly. The stuck becomes unstuck, the blocked begins to move. You may have to run to keep up with the speed at which the situation around you is moving. You may be surprised by the direction things ( and you) are taking. You may find your plans, even your desires and dreams, changing as the transformative process takes place. It might not have been in your plans, but later on you will look back and say, “Wow! It wasn't what I expected, but it was just what I needed!” When we have been through such an intense transformation, we can... Read More.

This week’s tarot reading involves The Bright Mother". She represents creativity, nurturing, productivity, intimacy, and sheltering. When the Bright Mother is present in a reading, she speaks of a time of fertility, creativity, and nurturing of ourselves or of others.  She might indicate marriage or a birth of a child or a deepening of any kind of relationship. She also speaks of giving one’s all to life, not holding back. She is like a cornucopia, pouring forth abundance. This may be a time to put the needs of others first, taking care of yourself later. Patience may be needed for the process. Consider what you have. Acknowledge the people and things in your life- good, bad, and indifferent. This consideration is not to judge, approve, or reject, but merely  to recognize what... Read More.

This week’s tarot reading involves "G. Hobyah". He represents  facing your fears, confronting that which scares you or holds you back. By confronting them you will realize that they are only feeding into your self doubt. He speaks of imaginary fears, unreal hazards and realistic caution. It is time to look for the truth behind our fears, to distinguish between what is real and what is just our projection of old traumas and fears into our imaginary future. By delving into our old patterns, we can see past them to a more liberating life. Only by facing these fears honestly and seeing them, for what they are, do we gain greater ability to open our hearts to courage and gain strength to face the really difficult challenges in our...

This week’s card is “The Singer of Initiation”, which signifies passage through trial, triumph, a new level, and breakthrough. This card notifies us that significant change and challenge are both occurring in our lives, with the potential for moving into a new realm, which involves a new way of being. This major change has been building for a long time, and the moment is now here to meet this challenge. We may already be aware of the initiation process but perhaps we only have seen it as bad luck or fate.  It is neither. It is an opportunity to see if we have, deep down, truly learned the lessons we have been working on and are willing to apply them to our lives. The presence of the Singer of... Read More.

This week’s tarot reading involves the card, “ The Lady of the Harvest". This card represents completion, grief, loss, harvest, and release. It is time to accept change, to move on to the next phase. Power and strength in the present and future come from releasing the past. This is a time of liberation, and we might as well cooperate with it. It will happen, whether we want it to or not. Release and liberation may be painful or joyful, depending on the circumstances. Cry if you need to, by joyful if that is appropriate, but in either case trust the process, acknowledge what you feel, and prepare to move on.
