April Tarot Reading

This is the 5th of a series of Tarot readings our group will do for 2017. When most public (and some private) rituals take place, the first altar we usually approach as we enter the circle is for Earth in the direction of North. The Earth Priestess stands for us and invokes the Element & Direction.

It is said that "the Earth is our Mother & we must take care of Her" because She supports every step we take and will never let us go.

Like the rituals we do, we have personal space for ourselves alone, private space where we invite a select few into our circle, and public spaces where everyone comes and goes at will. Our reading, this month, focuses on those sacred spaces where we sit or stand. Your reading might speak to choices you have that can make your sacred spaces more environmentally sound. It can suggest what you need to do to feel healthier.

This is an electronic swap, so we invite all members from around the great green Earth to join us.

Get into your sacred space. Take your entire favorite deck, shuffle and cut three times to the left. Then from the top of your shuffled deck, pull off the first card. YES, just one card will tell it all for the month of April regarding how we are to honor our Mother Earth. It means you, as the reader need to do a lot of sensing, looking and interpreting of this card. You don't need a book to give you the meaning. Just look at it and tell your partner what is there.

Tell your partner what you see in the card that represents what they need to be a part of this world. It is such an interesting journey.

When I did this reading for myself, I drew the 7 of Pentacles (I separated the Pentacles from the entire deck as an example). Please use your entire deck for the reading.) My deck shows a woman surrounded by a variety of Felines both wild & domesticated, plus a Snake & a Scorpion. It is so appropriate because Cats teach us how to care for our bodies, how to look good, how to rest, how to own the room. Both Snake & Scorpion remind us how dangerous our choices can be, and also how powerful we are.

As a Priestess invoking the Element of Earth, one might call in all the beauty she sees in Nature, the power of the Stone Nation, the wonder of the Plant/Animal Nations that provide us sustenance, good health and practical magick.

If you participate in this monthly series, you may want to keep the readings all together and let them form patterns. If you drop in for one or two during the year, you will get another kind of pattern. Here is where we trust the divine messages.

No cost for this swap, easy one card reading, scanned and sent electronically on time. Rate when you receive your reading whether or not you like it. When you get the scan you can add to it for yourself. Just be aware that the divine forces are at work here and send messages whenever you agree to have your cards read by another. Beginners are welcome.

Let me know if you have questions or if there are issues.
