6 of Pentacles (Reversed) – The Inequity of One-Sided Charity

The Reading

Today’s theme revolves around the imbalance and inequity of one-sided charity, encapsulated by the reversed 6 of Pentacles card. It’s a topic I often find myself wrestling with, and I’m sure many of you can relate. We, empathetic souls with hearts of service, often struggle to avoid the pitfall of unbalanced giving.

It’s all too easy to fall into a pattern where others come to expect our continuous generosity without offering anything in return, whether they’re aware of it or not. As a result, this dynamic creates an inequity that can shift the power dynamics in our relationships. The power lies in these unspoken expectations.

So, as you navigate your day, I challenge you to take a moment to reflect on your relationships. Are you inadvertently setting up an unbalanced dynamic where someone expects you to give without receiving anything in return? I’m not referring to a simple thank you or words of appreciation, but rather consistent actions that help to rectify the imbalance and inequity of one-sided charity.

Our relationships are delicate and can be fickle if we don’t nurture them properly. Let’s make an effort to give them the care and attention they truly deserve.

With warm regards, Maggie

Daily Reading for Monday, January 8, 2024

The Fool (Reversed) – Be Emboldened

The Reading

Let’s dive into the theme of “Emboldened” in today’s reading. To begin with, a quick search defines it as having the courage and confidence to take action in a certain way. Today, The Fool (Reversed) card reminds us not to be emboldened in a reckless manner; instead, it calls for caution and self-reflection. So, balance, my friends, is the recurring theme in many of my readings.

Imagine it like the Speed Limit. My dear grandpa, Bud, once got pulled over for driving too slowly, impeding traffic, and putting others at risk. In the long run, he got a traffic ticket, much to his chagrin. On the flip side, there are those who are so emboldened that they ignore the posted limits and speed recklessly, endangering themselves and everyone around them.

Life, my dear ones, isn’t about moving too sluggishly, missing out on opportunities. Nor is it about racing ahead so fast that you fail to appreciate the beauty along the way. I encourage you to be emboldened to find a speed that’s neither dangerously slow nor recklessly fast. In summary, find a pace where you can savor the journey and discover fulfillment.

With love and light, Maggie

Ten of Swords (Upright) – Being Focused on a Fresh Start in the Midst of Chaos

The Reading

Have you ever caught yourself daydreaming about leaving your current life behind? Imagine, if you will, creating a fresh start for yourself, like the tales told in books such as “Wild” by Cheryl Strayed or “Into the Wild” by John Krakauer. Let’s face it, the allure of a clean slate can be magnetic, even if it feels like a dramatic notion. Consequently, the Ten of Swords (Upright) gently hints that you can embark on this journey without leaving your loved ones behind or braving it alone in the wilderness. Echoing the wisdom of Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh, who advises, “Many of us have been running all our lives. Practice stopping.”

Story Time

For example, please allow me to recount a story where I found myself in the role of a first responder, arriving at the scene of a car accident just moments after it occurred. Incidentally, my colleague and I resided near each other and it took me no time to get to his location. Once there, I discovered him standing outside his vehicle, which another driver had rear-ended. His mind was racing, and I found it challenging to get him to focus. I had to intervene with a firm command: “STOP!” His thoughts were spinning so rapidly that he couldn’t discern any pain amidst the chaos. Thus, I started guiding him through a thorough head-to-toe assessment, I ensured there were no concealed injuries.

In the End

This story is meant to illustrate that we often overlook physical or emotional discomfort in the whirlwind of life. Therefore, the Ten of Swords serves as a gentle reminder that you hold the power to embark on a fresh start, much like the characters in those captivating stories, sans selling everything and going it alone. Rather, it encourages you to pause, engage in self-reflection, and commence the transformative healing journey.

Therefore, I encourage you to take a moment to pause, akin to the characters in “Wild” or “Into the Wild.” Tune in to the whispers of your heart. Embrace the prospect of renewal, for it marks the initial step towards embracing the idea of a rejuvenating new beginning.

With warmth and unwavering encouragement,
Maggie

Two of Wands (Upright) – Rediscovering Dreams: Embracing Passion and Ambition on the Journey of Self-Discovery

The Reading

What do you dream of becoming when you grow up? As for me, I’m still on that journey of self-discovery. It’s funny how our enthusiasm as seven-year-olds for various professions can change over the years. Yet, I began to mute my passions and aspirations somewhere along the way. Particularly, I believe, it was out of fear of being ridiculed for failure after being too vocal about my dreams. If you had told me just three years ago that I’d be reading Tarot, not only for myself but for real people, I would have probably laughed, added a sarcastic comment, and dismissed the idea entirely. Yet, deep inside, I would have been awed and endlessly curious.

But you know what? I quietly started reading Tarot, first for close family and friends and then for the public. Feeling like an impostor is natural when you’re just starting out. However, the key is that I began. The upright Two of Wands encourages us to rediscover our enthusiasm, empower ourselves to pursue long-term goals and seize opportunities. Add a dash of ambition, and the possibilities become boundless.

With determination and the proper perspective, we can all embark on our unique journeys of self-discovery and growth.

With love and awe, Maggie

Page of Pentacles (Reversed): Negative Meanings and How to Navigate to Positive Assumptions

The Reading

One of the things I tell my clients when I read Tarot for them is to avoid immediately associating the card’s meanings with negativity. Therefore, I guide my clients away from thinking about the negative meanings and encourage them to navigate their minds toward positive assumptions. It can be easier said than done, as humans tend to have preconceived notions about particular words.

For example, take the Page of Pentacles (Reversed) and its association with “immaturity in financial matters.” At first glance, it might sound like a criticism of one’s financial skills. However, I encourage you to withhold judgment until we explore the full reading. Imagine this card as an invitation to something new – like the opportunity to invest in cryptocurrency. If you’re unfamiliar with it, instead of viewing “immaturity” negatively, see it as a chance to embark on a positive learning experience. We all start somewhere; this is your starting point with a positive mindset.

Now, let’s consider a situation where the card suggests a “lack of focus and missed opportunities.” Instead of immediately assuming it’s a negative judgment on your focus, let’s turn the situation around. Maybe you haven’t needed to focus on this particular aspect of your life before. While it may seem like a missed opportunity, could it be that the timing wasn’t right?

There’s a beautiful country song by Garth Brooks called “Unanswered Prayers.” It reminds us that some of life’s greatest blessings come when our prayers remain unanswered.

Dear ones, I encourage you to start each reading with a presumption of positive intent. Let’s steer away from harsh judgments and focus on the potential for growth and learning in every card’s message.

Go in peace and positivity,
Maggie

Daily Reading for January 4, 2024 – The Hanged Man (Reversed)

In the reversed Hanged Man tarot card, you see a crow with its wings stretched behind, raising one leg. Above the crow, there are vibrant red poppies growing towards it, instead of hanging below. The crow stands firmly on a flowering tree branch rather than hanging from it. To the left of the card, there is a representation of amethyst, while to the right, you'll find selenite. The card is labeled with the caption "The Hanged Man (Reversed)" and a description that reads, "Release From a Period of Suspension or Stagnation." This suggests that one move on, gain fresh perspective, or journey with one's friends or kindred spirits. Additionally, there are identifiers for the source, "OldeCrowTarot.com," and the card's origin, "Card: Crow Tarot by MJ Cullinane." The background of the image is beige.

The Hanged Man (Reversed)

The Reading – Move Forward and Gain Fresh Perspectives With Friends and Kindred Spirits

Life is a tapestry of significant events, and right now, it feels like we’re in the midst of one. Perhaps it’s the dawn of a new year, or maybe it’s the phase of the moon guiding us. Whatever it may be, it’s a moment when we can harness our focus and move forward.

The Hanged Man (Reversed) Tarot card speaks of breaking free from the bonds that have held us in suspension or stagnation. It signifies our readiness to step into the next chapter of our lives. Along this journey, we’ll gain fresh perspectives, leaving behind the delays and uncertainties that once plagued us. We’re prepared to take that next big leap.

Yesterday, our message centered on love and the power of words in strengthening our bonds. While we can certainly navigate life’s journey alone, there’s something profoundly beautiful about sharing it with those who resonate with us.

Allow me to share a personal experience. When I was 16, I embarked on a journey to Germany with a group of unfamiliar faces. It was a whirlwind of firsts – from flying to culture shock, and even discovering the wonders of curry ketchup. As a curious soul, I couldn’t wait to spread my wings, even if just for a brief escape from the nest. The adventure was incredible, but amid the excitement, I found myself longing to share it with my mom, dad, and occasionally, my younger brother.

The point I want to make is that solo adventures can be amazing, but the magic truly intensifies when you have someone to share those moments with. So, as you move forward, consider embarking on this journey with a friend or a kindred spirit. Some of my fondest memories are intertwined with the presence of friends.

May your path be smooth and brimming with fulfillment.

With warmth,
Maggie

The Lovers (Upright)

The Daily Reading – Regarding Love and Relationships

Today’s tarot card, The Lovers (Upright), delves into matters of the heart. In our previous reading, we touched upon the significance of nurturing our relationships. The universe is reinforcing this message by putting love at the forefront today.

It’s all too easy to take our relationships for granted, especially those closest to us, the ones we rely on day in and day out. I come from a stoic Scandinavian background, where love was often implied rather than explicitly expressed. There was a constant undercurrent of uncertainty about how a family member truly felt about another.

So, today, I invite you to take a bold step. Tell someone near and dear to your heart that you love them. Go a step further and let them know just how much you appreciate them, providing a specific example or two. I can assure you that people never tire of hearing how much they mean to someone else. We shouldn’t have to rely on intuition to decipher someone’s feelings toward us. Likewise, we shouldn’t expect others to do the same for us.

I understand that uttering these words may feel challenging at first, but remember, like any skill, it gets easier with practice. Those individuals you’ve chosen to have in your life deserve to know exactly how you feel about them. That’s why I want to take this moment to express my appreciation and love for you, dear one. You are valued just as you are.

With love, hope, and positivity,
Maggie

10 of Pentacles (Reversed)

The Reading

Happy New Year, beautiful souls!

As we transition back to our regular routines after the holiday season’s excesses and family gatherings, we often come face-to-face with how this time of year affects our finances and relationships. As a result, it is a time when the reversed 10 of Pentacles tarot card’s themes resonate. This card suggests that now might be the ideal moment to address these crucial aspects of our lives.

Just as many people make resolutions to improve their physical health, today presents an opportunity to go on a financial diet and mend any rifts in our relationships. Take a moment as you navigate through this day to set up a fund for giving, such as a savings account or “Christmas Club” for next year, and reach out to someone with whom your connection might need a little TLC. Challenge yourself to make both financial and relationship resolutions as you step into this new year.

In the spirit of friendship and love,
