One of the “positive” cards in the Tarot. The Star is a message of hope, healing & inspiration
Happy Friday everyone! The card I pulled today is The Star. This card appears after the upheaval of The Tower in the Major Arcana. Notice the eight pointed stars on this card. The eight pointed star traditionally carries the frequency of resurrection, salvation, abundance, healing, and hope. The Star card in a reading is a positive sign that divine/universal blessings, and opportunities will soon appear in your life. You will experience a renewal of mind, body and spirit. As well, divine wisdom is bestowed upon you in the form of a renewed source of inspiration. This higher and wiser perspective gives one a positive outlook for the future.
Card associated with the 6/10/21 New Moon & Solar Eclipse: The Lovers and 9 of Swords
The cards associated with the June 10th New Moon and Solar Eclipse in Gemini are The Lovers and the Nine of Swords. Gemini (The Lovers) is a sign represented by the twins. The energy of duality and decisions. Paired with the Nine of Swords, I feel the message is that we need to look at something through the lens of discernment. With Mercury in retrograde, not all communication whether from others or even from ourselves may be 100% the truth. It’s no coincidence, that The Magician in the reversed position (Mercury is the planet associated with The Magician) has come up in quite a few client readings lately! Some of you may need to detach for a moment to view a situation from a higher perspective to understand that what you see and hear may not be the entire truth. It may not be your truth at all. Perhaps it is someone else’s truth that is being projected onto you.
The nine of swords is a card of worry, anxiety, sleepless nights, and of reliving the emotional trauma of the past. Left unchecked this energy can spiral into a “loop” of negative self-talk and disempowerment which can prevent one from moving forward and ending the cycle (as shown in the next card of the swords suit progression, the ten of swords). This powerful transit asks us to look within, and to be mindful of our thoughts. You may be presented with information or a new perspective to aid you in ending a cycle. Perhaps it is time to set personal boundaries in your relationships, or come to a decision about what needs to go so that you can move forward in a positive direction. You may discover that your fears were larger in your mind than what they are in reality. Or it simply may indicate that you should trust your inner guidance. If something doesn’t feel right to you, pay attention.
If this energy is activating something from your past, whether this is an ex that trying to come back into your life, or an internal thought process, this transit is a good reminder for you to be easy on yourself. Take stock at how far you have come. Choose the path and patterns that empower you, allow you stay positive and focus on what you want to bring into your life. If you are slipping back into worry, anger and self-doubt, this is an indication that you are focusing your energy on what you DON’T want instead of what you DO want.
This is not a time to take a big leap! Ground and center yourself. Connect with love and move through the process at your own pace. But darling, do be sure you keep moving forward! The Nine’s in the tarot indicate a cycle that is close to completion. You have completed the lessons of the past and now this is your opportunity to embrace not only a new beginning, but to walk within the light of your personal truth (the Ace of Swords).
