Because this is a card reading for the week that flows into the next calendar year, this reading and these energies can carry over throughout the year. Think of it as a preview of what the year ahead holds.
The energy we are leaving (the past week, the past year) is the Knight of Pentacles reversed. This can be an earth sign person in their twenties or thirties (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn). Knights are about movement and action, but this knight is the slowest moving knight of the deck. He can also be about money or material goods. Tangible goods. Reversed, he may be moving a little faster than usual. Because upright, he’s plodding along. Which isn’t necessarily bad if it concerns money or your property, right? You want to be methodical and to be thorough about decisions and actions. But reversed, he’s moving on something. Which is good.
The present energy is the Two of Cups upright. A beautiful card of love and relationships and union. It doesn’t have to be romantic in nature – it can just as easily be a partnership around business or a deepening of a friendship or becoming closer with a family member. But it’s coming together. It’s love. It’s union. Beautiful.
The future card is the Nine of Pentacles upright. Which is kind of the opposite of the Two of Cups in a way. This is the “happy single person” card. It shows a woman dressed in a beautiful gown, surrounded by nine pentacles with a bird on her shoulder. I love that this card shows a woman with her pet critter with her. Pentacles generally refer to money and tangible goods (our stuff). She’s doing quite well financially and she’s happy. She’s also by herself. So this can indicate making peace with being single if that is a dynamic in your life. It can indicate success with a private business or a solo venture. j
The oracle card is Here and Now. It’s about being present in the moment. Not getting stuck in the past and not being super concerned about the future, but about being content and at peace with this moment, right now. With what you have, right now. Finding happiness with where you are now. We tend to be very focused on the future at the beginning of a new year. What the next year will hold, the things we’d like to manifest or create, what we’d like to accomplish. But there’s something to be said with just being content with right now. With all that you have and all that you have already accomplished.
Astrologically speaking, towards the end of this week, all the planets will be direct and they will stay direct for about two months. There’s no excuse to NOT start that new thing or go after that new goal now. Not just because of a date on the calendar, but also because the universe is giving us all a cosmic push to go after what we want. It’s about forward moment and forward momentum. Take advantage of it. There’s always a period of about 6-8 weeks every (calendar) year where all the planets are direct. Those weeks/months are the time to GO. And to DO. It’s not about planning and figuring out and calculating. It’s about doing. Use this energy – it’s truly a gift from the universe.
Be open to what calls you…
