“To see the glow of your own light, go into the dark.” Barbara Moore

((The Steampunk Tarot, Moore and Fell))

Sometimes, The Hermit arrives to caution us against relying on others but other times, simply reminds us we need to take time out for ourselves – this is one of those times. The new week begins with a message for peace and quiet; retreat from distractions, find your center – you will need this time to prepare yourself for the holidays.

THE TAKEAWAY: Everyone needs a break from time to time, and now is the time to take yours. The holiday season is in full swing, the days and nights will become increasingly hectic, and if you do not take some time for yourself right now, you will certainly regret it later.  You cannot  pour from an empty cup.

REMINDER: SELF CARE IS NOT OPTIONAL!
