Card of the Week: Breaking Barriers

Oracle Card of the Week
Breaking Barriers from the Gateway Oracle Deck.

Gateway Oracle Cards was the deck that I pulled from this week. The card I drew was Breaking Barriers. “I am expanding beyond limitations into joy and freedom!”

If something is holding you back, or if you have any self-imposed barriers, now is the time to break through them. Just as a sea turtle hatchling has to break through the egg, crawl up through the nest to the surface, and make a run for it’s ocean home, don’t let anything stop you from reaching your goal.

Don’t let fear or self-doubt hold you back. Although going through this process may feel messy, disruptive, or tumultuous, things will eventually settle down. Just keep focused on what the end result could be. When you look back at this experience, you may even realize that life is now better because you broke through the barriers.

Card of the Week: King of Pentacles / Bison

Tarot Card of the Week
King of Pentacles / Bison card from Animal Totem Tarot.

This week’s card was drawn from Animal Totem Tarot. The card I pulled was King of Pentacles / Bison.

This card depicts a bison proudly showing off his prizes of a gold pentacle and a crown hanging from one of his horns. Scars on his face show that he had a tough fight to win his achievements.

Bison is a survivor. He can thrive in the most harsh conditions, and was almost hunted to extinction. No matter where Bison finds himself, he knows he can conquer his surroundings. This is the energy of the King of Pentacles…confident that you have the resources and instinct to obtain what you need. You may need to scrap, fight, stand your ground, but you innately know it will be worth it once you have manifested that which you have fought for.

Message from Bison:

“Where you are is as good as it is going to get until you can master the here and now. In this place, you have all you need to tether yourself to a past that can no longer sustain you or provide you with the tools you require to build a life fit for a king. The secret is to stop looking at what is around you and start focusing on what is inside of you. For it is the conditions of the inner landscape that determine the outcome of your physical world.”

Card of the Week: Eight of Fire

Tarot Card of the Week
Eight of Fire card from Angel Tarot Cards.

The Angel Tarot Cards is the deck that I used for the card of the week. I drew the Eight of Fire.

This beautiful card  depicts a dragon wrapped around a wand, with seven wands darting and swirling. Waves can be seen in the body of water behind the scene.

Just like the dragon, it is time to hold on because things are going to start moving! Any delays you may have had in your plans are now over, and it’s full speed ahead. It could come a surprise to you, and may seem a bit overwhelming as you witness the frenzy.  But you have been hoping and planning for this, and it will feel good to see it finally happening now.

Remember to take time to stay grounded if things seem too chaotic, however keep in mind that the momentum will continue. Enjoy the positivity and spotlight!
