Tarot Card Reading of the Week – August 26, 2018

The past energy (or energy we are leaving) is the Eight of Swords reversed. This is a good card to get reversed because it can indicate coming out of this “blind and bound” phase.  The blindfold comes off and now you can see.  And you are able to break free of what had you bound and tied to one place.  Since this card is sometimes referred to as a mental card, and the suit of swords can correspond to the mind and thoughts and communication,  this could have all been in your head. And you’re finally breaking free of whatever thoughts had you trapped.

The present energy is the Queen of Swords reversed.  The Ice Queen, she’s sometimes called. She can be an air sign adult female (Aquarius, Libra, Gemini) – but she doesn’t have to be. This is a woman who uses her words and her mind to hurt.  Sharp words, a sharp tongue.  So get ready for some harsh words or difficult truths coming from her this week.

The future card is the Six of Swords upright. All swords cards this week.  So a lot of thinking – a lot in the mind. This card can indicate moving from something…to something better.  On a mundane level, it can indicate travel of some sort. A trip. Or moving in any other sense of the word. Moving house, changing a job, changing where you do something (if you always run a certain route, maybe you’re running a different route, as an example).  But it’s the idea of movement from where you are (maybe not so good) to something else…and it’s better.   Again, because it’s a swords card, it could just be your thinking about something. If you’ve always thought the neighborhood you live in is not the best, maybe something happens to change your mind and you realize it’s not that bad.   So it’s a “movement of thought” about something.

We just had a Pisces Full Moon and Mars is set to go direct. One door may have closed (as full moons can signify endings or a completion to something) and now with Mars direct, we’re ready to march forward into something new.  But before we can actually do that, we have to first think it and imagine it and visualize it in our minds.

Be open to what calls you…
