As a new month begins, I find myself under the light of another full moon. I often ponder over what this new cycle will bring into my life and I always try to seek guidance from the cards during this time. Lately, I have been feeling unsettled and anxious, partly due to the ongoing pandemic, but also because I have not been living in alignment with my true self and higher purpose. Unable to focus on anything else, I realized that my question for the full moon revolved around this internal struggle. I wanted to know: What are my guides trying to communicate to me?
Seven of Wands: The card of protection and standing up for what you believe in. I realized that I have become stagnant and I am not fully honoring my beliefs as I should. The message here is clear – I must defend my beliefs with honesty and integrity, and not let external pressures sway me from my path. I must protect my loved ones and the fruits of my labor, as they are divine gifts and manifestations of my dreams.
Page of Wands: Symbolizing the passion for life and being a free spirit, this card reminds me of my creativity that I have been neglecting. New ideas have been flowing into my mind, urging me to nurture them and let them guide me towards a new chapter in my life.
Nine of Wands: A representation of resilience and persistence in the face of challenges. To bring to life the ideas my guides have shared with me, I must remain steadfast and focused. Despite potential distractions and naysayers, I must keep my eyes on the prize and push forward with determination.
Animal Guides of Avalon: The Cat: In a three-card reading with oracle cards, the Cat symbolizes healthy boundaries and independence. The message I received is to not rush or feel pressured by time. While it is crucial to stay on track, it is equally important to rest and recharge. Just like the cat’s nine lives, I have the ability to try again and always land on my feet.
