The High Priestess of the Paulina Tarot comes to you today in all her mysterious femininity, reminding you of your own power and mystique.
Her body is made up of eyes, suggesting you look inward at what is inside you. Don’t be overly concerned with what’s going on outside of you today. Since the outer is a reflection of the inner state, go within.
That is the secret that this Mona-Lisa-esque High Priestess is here to tell you. Don’t overlook what’s happening within you. If you are at war with yourself, you will create battles in your daily life. If you feel emotionally blocked, your life will also feel “stuck” in many ways.
You are full of mysteries just waiting to be explored and practices like meditation, journalling, creative writing and yoga all help you do this. So carve out some “me-time” this week and rock out 😉
Monday’s Tarot card is the Seven of Swords and it suggests you are trying to sneak away from something.
It can be tempting to shirk responsibility for something, especially if that something feels out of your comfort zone and a bit scary.
Normally I am all about shirking responsibility, but this time it feels like you need to persevere and not give up just because something is difficult.
Most importantly, don’t run from your thoughts today….observe them carefully because they hold the key to what is really going on with you. Examine your thoughts as if they were a sly intruder who has snuck into your mind and is plotting mischief!
In the comments below, spill the beans on what it is that you are avoiding today…
Are you ignoring a golden opportunity? Today’s Tarot card, the Four of Cups, suggest you might be! Your expectations may be very high, which is good, but don’t forget to look beyond appearances.
Something that might seem totally boring could actually turn out to be a delicious experience! So if you find yourself feeling a bit closed off to people or to trying new things, loosen up a bit.
Something will be presented to you today and you will be tempted to turn away or just ignore it – but look again, think twice and don’t be so quick to say “NO!” this time.
Today’s Tarot card is the Six of Wands, from the Paulina Tarot deck. You’ll be going places today, so hold onto your hat!
The message today is that you are moving onward and upward. Any goals you set today will be well within your reach. The Six of Wands is all about making progress and feeling a sense of achievement from your hard work and efforts. Lap up any praise or compliments that others give to you today….sure it’s a bit ego-centered, but who cares?
If you are feeling like a bit of a loser today, start by making small goals that you know you can achieve. Once you have achieved those, your energy will have shifted and you will find it easier to start setting and reaching bigger, bolder goals. So prepare for lift off!!!
On Monday I became a Certified Angel Card Reader and to celebrate I am offering 7 reading spots for those who would like an Angel card reading about manifesting more prosperity and abundance in their lives. I am currently on a break from doing private readings, however I feel so excited about doing Angel readings right now that I felt I needed to take a break from my break 😉 Click here for more info.
Today’s Tarot card is the Two of Swords, from the Paulina Tarot. It’s decision time again! And its also time to stop being so annoying indecisive! This is not a life or death situation, so don’t feel like you have to mull things over for eternity.
The real issue here is that you have a hard time trusting yourself. Yes, you ARE capable of making the right decision and if you happen to make the wrong one, you are capable of fixing things and getting back on your feet again.
If you want to wait until you have more information to go on, that’s fine….just don’t wait forever. You may be trying to make this decision with your intellect, when consulting your heart is all that’s needed. Your mind is great, but it can only get you so far.
Today’s Tarot card is the Ace of Wands from the Paulina Tarot and the message is all about paring passion with wisdom. Passion is represented by the Suit of Wands and wisdom is indicated by the giant owl, an ancient symbol of wisdom.
Wisdom on its own is wonderful…but a little boring. Passion on its own is exciting, but can die down without the mature, guiding force of wisdom. When you combine the two, you strengthen your ability to enhance the world around you in a real, meaningful way.
Today, ask yourself where you could use a little more wisdom and what areas need a bit more passion. If you are working on a project or have recently had a new idea, see how you can combine your passion with your wisdom….and then watch the magic unfold!
I want to send a huge THANK YOU to all who have participated in my survey. Your feedback is incredibly valuable and I truly appreciate you taking the time to give it to me! If you haven’t done my survey yet, its still open – click here to let me know your thoughts 🙂
The Page of Swords from the Paulina Tarot is today’s card and he comes with a warning: don’t speak until you have thought things through.
If you are feeling particularly annoyed with someone, you may be tempted to write them a snippy email or give them a piece of your mind. Put some distance between the event that upset you and your response – give yourself time to calm down, collect your thoughts and evaluate your feelings.
The Page of Swords can also indicate feeling uncertain about something. If you feel this way, use the power of your pen to sift through your feelings. Write out all your concerns on paper (you can shred or burn the paper after if you are worried about others finding it). Once you have your thoughts down on paper, chances are they won’t be swirling about in your mind, making you all crazy!
Today is the perfect time to study or explore something that interests you! Read a book that calls to you, sign up for that night-course that intrigues you, or take a new route on your walk today. Shake up your regular routine by doing something new, fresh and interesting.
The owl in this card suggests that your true wisdom can be accessed when you fully engage yourself in what you love to do. Particularly when you are feeling playful and joyous. We often think that “wisdom” and “playfulness” don’t really go together, but here in this Ace of Wands, they do!
You are on the cusp of a new beginning and about to come into your own wisdom and see things with a fresh set of eyes. This whimsical Paulina Tarot card reminds you to keep an open mind and a playful attitude!
Today’s Tarot card is the Ten of Swords from the Paulina Tarot. You might be tempted to over-dramatize things today and beware that minor issues may feel like big catastrophes – this is mainly due to the fact that yesterday’s Full Moon is still effecting us today.
Right now is a time of heightened energy….its like a culmination of energy, energy that has been building over the last month. You may have sensed a feeling of energy building inside of you and around you. This is also a good time to release old energies and patterns that no longer serve you.
Use the power of the Full Moon to shine a light on that which holds you down – write it down on paper if you need to. While you can do this kind of releasing anytime, now is a particularly significant and powerful time to do this work. By the time December comes, you will be feeling fresh and free of any burdens.

The Queen of Cups Tarot card, this one is from the Paulina Tarot, comes today to remind you that your dreams are waiting patiently inside of you, wanting to come out!
If you often find yourself wondering if something is possible, the Queen of Cups would tell you that you need not wonder if, but how you can bring something into reality.
All possibilities are already inside of you. It’s up to you to decide which ones you are going to “give birth to” or manifest. It is a matter of opening your mind to what you believe is possible and then consciously aligning yourself with your dream.
Life Coaching Activity
Here is a fun activity to help you get started on mapping out your dreams and creating realistic pathways and inroads in your life to help you get there! For this you will need: colored pens and a large piece of paper (or two regular sized sheets of paper taped together to form a long, rectangular piece).
On the left side of your sheet of paper, write a vertical list of what elements make up your life right now. This could be your job, daily activities, hobbies – basically what you do in an average week. My Life Now:
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
On the far right side of the paper you write your dreams. You can be totally free and creative here – you don’t need to be realistic. Just list the elements of your ideal life! Sometimes it can be fun to draw little pictures beside each dream. My Dreams….
__________________________
__________________________
__________________________
__________________________
In the center of the paper, draw a big heart (or globe) in this you will brainstorm all your positive qualities– your gifts, talents, learned skills, likeable traits, etc.
Now, in the space between the heart and your dreams, write down how you would like your life to be like one year from now. You should be somewhat realistic here – only write down things that you believe will be achievable in one year. My Life in One Year:
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
In the space between your life now and the heart, write down 5 small steps you will take in the next couple of months in order to move closer to your one year goal. Underneath this, make a list of all the people that will help you on your path (such as friends, teachers, mentors, family).
You can put this up on your wall or fridge, or tuck it away and peek at it every now and then. You will surprised how quickly some of your goals manifest after writing them down like this!
