ATTUNE TO THE MOON

GENERAL

For some of you, fear of taking a risk or the unknown holds you back. You could be holding onto old ways of doing things and getting pretty much the same result each time. Or you could be carrying some out-dated ways of thinking/acting regardless of any good intentions you have. You may have trouble following through on new ideas or plans and keep reverting back to the old way of doing things. It’s time to let the new ways in. Be open to change. When the 7 of Swords (R) pops up it’s time to let go or stop hanging on. You’re running with an idea that won’t work. This may be because you haven’t thought it through properly and could be acting impulsively. Instead go back to the beginning parts of your plan. They need to be either dumped or re-worked. The 8 of Pentacles also encourages you to take your time and not attempt or try to take any shortcuts. Quality over quantity. That’s what seems to matter at the moment so pay extra attention to fine detail. Don’t just be in a hurry to get things finished and done. You may feel like you don’t have the time or enough to do all that and intend to keep running in the hope that it all works out but you’re only setting yourself up for delays, set-backs or complete failure. The 8 of Pentacles signifies that you have very strong abilities or skills that you may not be utilizing to your best and full advantage. You may have a hobby; doing or making things in your spare time, which brings you great joy. This could be self-taught, through research and reading up on your subject. The 8 of Pentacles indicates that you’re sitting on a goldmine. It may be time to show others your abilities and skills by exposing it to a wider audience. Take your work to the people and let them make up their own mind. If you feel unsure about certain areas, then do a few online courses to add a professional touch. On one hand, you could be playing safe by not putting all your eggs in one basket. The 7 of Swords (R) also indicates a ‘cooling off’ period —you don’t seem to be fully convinced about what you’re doing. You may also be taking advice from those around instead of doing what you think and feel is right. Part of you knows this but you fall under pressure to comply with the majority. On the other hand, good advice or a warning goes unheeded and if you continue to proceed in a manner that may ultimately have disastrous consequences, looking solely to yourself may not be the best idea at the moment (for those who may not know what they’re doing).

Keep in mind, the 7 of Swords (R) also indicates sly, cunning and devious behavior. Whoever, this person is—(and it could be you) they’re prepared to do anything they can to argue their way out of the blame. Take a good look around you as there may well be someone taking advantage of you. In terms of love and relationships, you may choose to ignore or disregard a warning about your partner. You may be guilty of turning a blind eye to their carry on or refuse to face the truth. At it’s essence the 2 of Cups (R) is about self-love. Love in any form, starts with love for yourself. When you love yourself unconditionally you accept and appreciate who you are, and you respect and honor the most authentic version of yourself. When you come from this place of self-love, self-acceptance, and self-respect, you’ll have more fulfilling and loving relationships with others. The 2 of Cups (R) can also signal a break-up or a falling out. You may be out of sync with someone or don‘t share the same emotional connection as you once did in the past. You may notice a lack of trust and/or being open with one another is proving difficult. Communication and the energy flow between you two may be stifled. The presence of the 2 of Cups (R) can also suggest that you or your partner may be attracted to someone else. You need to identify your needs in a relationship and also question what it is that draws you to another. Try turning this situation around by opening up. Create, share and hold a safe space for one another to express your feelings. Even with one conversation, you can shift the energy flow significantly.

The Hermit’s (R) indicates that you are deliberately avoiding searching within in fear of what you might discover and the changes you then may have to make in your life. On the other hand you may have taken this reflection stage a bit too far and have become almost obsessive about going within. With The Hermit (R) you may feel left out in the cold by family and friends or an outcast on the fringe of society. You might be a true Hermit living unsociable and avoiding close contact with anyone. To be the best you can be, know who you really are. Reject the definitions others and even yourself project on you. Search within. What do you really value? What do you really want to achieve? Empower yourself by embracing yourself, warts and all. For some of you, The Devil (R)indicates that you’re taking the necessary steps to free yourself from a restricting situation. You’re now beginning to think for yourself again and deciding your own path. You realize that money doesn’t buy happiness. For others of you, the 6 of Pentacles could mean that you’re finally in a position where you have a good relationship with your income and finances. The 6 of Pentacles is about sharing what we have – giving when we have more than we need, and asking for help when we don’t have enough. Even if you’re not financially wealthy, you still offer up your time, energy, love and support to those who are in need. Charity is simple: we should all look out for each other. Self-interest comes naturally and putting the needs of others first may ease your progress toward a balanced life. In terms of love and relationships, partners help each other. Healthy partners agree on rules for dividing up chores, financial responsibilities, and social roles—and then honor those commitments. Define what equality means for you, and help each other achieve it. There may be times when you wonder if you can truly afford to give generously to others and the wise advice of the 6 of Pentacles is to trust that every contribution you make is valued and will come back to you tenfold. On the other hand, with the 6 of Pentacles, you may be on the receiving end of other people’s generosity, accepting these gifts with gratitude. Try identifying ways in which you can become more self-sufficient in the long run. Don’t turn accepting to becoming dependent. Also, be mindful that you’re not growing submissive or noticeably desperate of the charity that someone else is providing you.
