March 18th, 2021: Pleasantly surprised

((The Lightseer’s Tarot by Chris Anne AND Wisdom of the Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid))  

Surprises can make us anxious. But as is so often true, an attitude of gratitude can go a long way; disappointments are often blessings in disguise, and our rivals can be our greatest teachers.

And now, to the cards! 

THEME: SERENDIPITY. Be open to the possibilities; you never know what you will find.

INFLUENCE: Knight of Pentacles. Don’t be in a hurry; it is more important to be prepared.

INFLUENCE: The World (21). Accept the happy ending, enjoy the success, and move on to the next thing.

STRATEGY: 7 Swords. If you do not feel appreciated, feel free to move on – no drama required, just go. NOTE: You may be the villain in some one else’s story, and they may move on as well – let them go.

BE REAL. BE RAW. BE POWERFUL. YOU GOT THIS!

March 17th, 2021: Rolling up our sleeves!

((The Lightseer’s Tarot by Chris Anne AND Wisdom of the Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid))  

Sometimes there is no substitute for hard work, and there’s nothing to it but to do it.

And now, to the cards! 

THEME: CHOP WOOD. Time to do the necessary and practical.

INFLUENCE: Ace of Swords. Think it through; work smart when you can, hard when you must.

INFLUENCE: The Emperor (4). Think long-term; be mindful of the best uses of resources.

STRATEGY: Ace of Pentacles. Start fresh, plant seeds. Best of luck!

BE REAL. BE RAW. BE POWERFUL. YOU GOT THIS!

March 16th, 2021: Roll with the changes!

((The Lightseer’s Tarot by Chris Anne AND Wisdom of the Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid))  

And now, to the cards! 

THEME: A CHANGE IN THE WIND. We’ve been feeling this for weeks; anticipation of Spring may be the antsiest of the season changes. No matter what the actual weather provides (62 degrees Friday, snow today – seriously?!) grab a jacket and get to it – walk straight into the teeth of the wind, and be the change(s) you want to see in the world.

INFLUENCE: The Star (17). See The Star, and make a wish – but be mindful! – this energy is for making things happen so choose wisely. SERIOUS NOTE: If you are inclined to use this energy to start trouble, upset others for the sake of it, or ruin things because you are just that miserable, I sincerely caution you against it. This is serious boomerang energy, and it will certainly return.

INFLUENCE: Death/Rebirth (13). If you want to make changes in your own life, you will have to accept both moving away from where you , and moving towards where you want to go – turning a page, closing a book, going back to the shelves – because every beginning comes from an end. It may be bittersweet but it is still quite good.

STRATEGY: King of Cups. This king has mastered his emotions, using them just as wisely and well as King of Swords uses his brilliant mind. Trust yourself! Allow your intuition to guide the way.

BE REAL. BE RAW. BE POWERFUL. YOU GOT THIS!

March 15th, 2021: Time to get going!

((The Lightseer’s Tarot by Chris Anne AND Wisdom of the Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid))  

Who’s ready to go? Everyone. No kidding.

It’s time to move along; our paths have been stalled long enough – hope we all enjoyed the rest – it’s time to get back to it.

And now, to the cards! 

THEME: TO THE SEA. Ready to sail away? Sail on , Sailor! Much like the 6 Swords, it’s time to set sail on our personal voyages.

INFLUENCE: 3 Cups. Enjoy the company of friends when you can but do not allow it to get in the way of your work – they can help or hinder so be mindful.

INFLUENCE: 10 Pentacles. Comfortable at home is a priceless gift. Keep that in mind when you are away.

STRATEGY: The Chariot (7). Do not be intimidated by movement or travel; you can’t get where you’re going if you refuse to leave where you are. (Actually, literally, figuratively, and metaphorically – all true.)

BE REAL. BE RAW. BE POWERFUL. YOU GOT THIS!

March 14th, 2021: It’s always about give and take.

((The Lightseer’s Tarot by Chris Anne AND Wisdom of the Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid))  

And now, to the cards! 

THEME: EXCHANGING GIFTS. An attitude of generosity, and gratitude, will serve us all this season; our best growth will be in our sharing with others – be particularly generous with time to nourish relationships.

INFLUENCE: The Lovers (6). Mars in Gemini can make for seriously hot sex but not necessarily lasting bonds – decide what you want before you let the genie out of the bottle.

INFLUENCE: 3 Pentacles. There are times when teamwork is the answer – if the right help comes alone, accept it graciously.

STRATEGY: 10 Wands. Success brings responsibility; do your best to carry it with grace as well as humility – an attitude of gratitude is good for everyone.

BE REAL. BE RAW. BE POWERFUL. YOU GOT THIS!

March 13th, 2021: Feeling Spring!

((The Lightseer’s Tarot by Chris Anne AND Wisdom of the Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid))  

It’s still early March, and we all know the likelihood Spring has sprung (and Winter vanquished!), is incredibly slim but we do not seem to care.

The feeling of all things new and possible is bubbling all over the place – enjoy it!

And now, to the cards! 

THEME: NEW LIFE. Your desire to make changes will manifest a new life – if you are not careful, you may be sorry. Mind your wishes as well as your words and actions – work mindfully with this energy and create what you want.

INFLUENCE: Queen of Wands AND Queen of Swords. When these queens appear you have the perfect balance of passion and intellect; Queen of Wands passionately pursues whatever the Queen of Swords thinks is a good idea. Also, these queens are quite capable of making their own way – those weapons are not ornamental.

STRATEGY: 3 Swords. Ignorance may be bliss but Knowledge is Power. Do not be afraid of the truth, even when it hurts, you are better for it.

BE REAL. BE RAW. BE POWERFUL. YOU GOT THIS!

March 12th, 2021: Count your blessings

((The Lightseer’s Tarot by Chris Anne AND Wisdom of the Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid))  

As we continue to build our post-COVID lives, it would be very easy to count the losses of 2020.

DON’T DO THAT!!!

STOP COUNTING YOUR LOSSES AND GET TO COUNTING YOUR BLESSINGS!!!!

And now, to the cards! 

THEME: MILK AND HONEY. Success in love, life, career, et al, is flowing with the renewal energy of Spring. If you do not have a plan to best use it, this would be a great time to get started!

INFLUENCE: The Hermit (9). Time alone is rejuvenating; if you cannot enjoy your own company and counsel, you cannot enjoy anything. Welcome the peace.

INFLUENCE: King of Wands. The more passionately you feel, the more mindful you must be – even small movements can have big impact under this energy.

STRATEGY: King of Pentacles. Patient and Practical, this king is a reminder of the importance of mindfulness in our resources and behaviors – slow and steady wins this race.

BE REAL. BE RAW. BE POWERFUL. YOU GOT THIS!

March 11th, 2021: Not quite finished

((The Lightseer’s Tarot by Chris Anne AND Wisdom of the Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid))  

Take the time to review what you have; decide what to keep, what to pass along, what to recycle, what to throw away. Don’t be in a hurry, be mindful in your decisions.

And now, to the cards! 

THEME: MENDING. Whatever it is, fix it if you can. Do not allow, time or pride to get in your way.

INFLUENCE: King of Wands AND King of Pentacles. When these kings ride together, great things can happen! The passion of wands with the practical application of pentacles creates balance in the making of bold moves.

STRATEGY: Knight of Swords. GO FOR IT! There is no better knight to battle for kings; he is full of bright ideas, an eagerness to prove himself, and a willingness to ride or die.

BE REAL. BE RAW. BE POWERFUL. YOU GOT THIS!

March 10th, 2021: Keep your eyes open!

((The Lightseer’s Tarot by Chris Anne AND Wisdom of the Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid))  

Though I search tirelessly for blessings that are not in disguise, they can be incredibly difficult to find. Most blessings are sneaky little suckers, masquerading as loss or disappointment.

Don’t be fooled! Keep your eyes open!

And now, to the cards! 

THEME: OBSERVER. Be watchful, not reckless; you fire AFTER ready and aim. Don’t be in hurry – keep your eyes open.

INFLUENCE: 5 Pentacles. Mind your resources. Do not generate drama with carelessness.

INFLUENCE: Judgement (20). Be sensible in your decision making. Knowledge (tomato is a fruit), and Wisdom (do not put it in the fruit salad), are meant to work together.

STRATEGY: Page of Wands. Greet opportunity with fresh energy and open eyes!

BE REAL. BE RAW. BE POWERFUL. YOU GOT THIS!
