Monday: Tens link us to an end of a cycle, completion and perfection. Cups energy is linked to the water element and about emotions and feelings. Water can be gentle or a powerful flood. Linked to conquest or drive in creative matters or relationships. It talks of successful relationships, marriage, long term partnerships, commitment and family dynamics. This card is also known as the Happy Ever After card. Therefore it is positive energy that steps forward for us today in w

Wednesday: Last night I was sooooo tired I went to sleep when my head hit the pillow at 11pm. I woke at 1.30am, glanced at the time and slipped back to sleep, then again at 6.09am. I woke at 10am having had three strong dreams that I partly remembered. I was definitely ‘dead to the world’. The Death card follows the Hanged Man. This is not talking about physical death but about the rising of the phoenix from the ashes of something that has befallen or arisen with us. A card

Saturday: From the 12th through to the 23rd, we are in the magical season of meteor showers. *higherself portal shares: ‘Meteor showers asks us all to tap into our own inner compass. To see beyond what our normal senses may express to us and tap into a reality that’s only visible when we believe in it, trust in it, and use it to have our greatest experience and thus teaching others to do the same as well. You can only be the light, when you become the candle. By being the exa

Friday: Our second and final royal card this week brings queen energy of caring, experience and maturity. Also, confidence, courage and determination as in taking the lead. She channels her power towards success in her life. She is a warrior queen to bring fulfilment. Associated with the developmental stage of creativity or work before achieving success. She is about taking action on her intuition. So, today again, we are asked to feel into our intuition and use it for our be

Tuesday: Another day of the energy of the planet Mercury in the Sun sign of Cancer where it is currently residing in the cosmos. This energy brings us diplomacy and the art of listening. Being aware of others and especially emotions. The three is about communication and creativity, enthusiasm and optimism. Today we see the sirens dancing in the ocean as in the depiction of the card, I hear ‘my cup runneth over.’ It is a call to celebration, to be united in joyful togethernes

Monday: The second Page of the minor arcana suits is our earth element messenger today and talks to us of enthusiasm and youthful energies. While in the suit of Cups it adds its water element of emotion and spiritual interest. A card that speaks to us of trusting our intuition and knowing that our emotions won’t be this intense forever. Yesterday the planet Mercury entered the Sun sign of Cancer which is also of the water element and will be with us through to the 27th of the

Thursday: One day up, the next day down. Life has us teeter tottering or, sea sawing through this week. Fives are about change, about instability and unsettling energy. Cups are about emotions, feelings and relationships. Therefore we may see some emotional conflict or disagreements coming to the fore today, people can find change and challenge intense and difficult to see beyond. We can be held in the past and not willing to change, yet, change is the most natural thing in l

Wednesday: Known as the Nostalgia Card we take a trip into the past and that of a child’s tea party with invited guests of stuffed toys and loving guardians placating a child’s innocence and simple pleasures. A card that asks us to find a happy place to be, to be joyful. That feeling of things being alright in the world regardless of what is actually happening. Can we find some of this delicious innocence? A card of charm and creativity. Of regeneration, sensitivity and wi

Tuesday: Another Tuesday and again we have the Ace of Cups. Last week as our top slice of a sandwich, today it stands alone as the ace but with another three of it's suit. The aces come as gifts from the Universe. They are about new beginnings and potential, but, we have to take action. When the time is right for that we will know. Do not spend our days fretting about when something should be done. Relax, flow and trust that you will know. This card is also known as the Cup o

Monday: We move to the energy of the planet Jupiter today (the lucky planet) and still in the last sign of the zodiac i.e. Sun sign Pisces. If we can steer clear of the negative traits of this planet e.g. overindulgence and irresponsibility then we will get the best out of this card today which is also known as the Wish Fulfilment Card. This card represents us. It is about our journey and we are given the guidance that we will be happy again. We may be involved in conversat

Sunday: We revisit perception as we end the week with the Major Arcana card number twelve, the Hanged Man. It is again about looking at things in a different light. A time of waiting, a pause. A card of intuition and sensitivity. From the Shadowscapes Companion book, it says: ‘The spirals of red draw his mind into that place of deep meditation where thought becomes action and where the stillness speaks with the voices of the gods. . . He goes willingly to his fate, [and] unh

Tuesday: First of our two Aces this week and today the water element with the suit of cups. In fact, the two aces balance either side of a strong and bright major arcana card which will magnify the power of these cards for us and amplify the energy of new beginnings. Are we ready to embrace this energy? The hand of God, the cup of joy, this card can guide us with an offer or an opportunity of something that we really want. It can herald a new beginning in the next stage of ou

Wednesday: We welcome our royal visitor of this week and engage with his attributes of authority, leadership and protector. Kings are of the fire element so bring their own passion to the fore and the Cups are of the water element so maybe together we can create some steam today, or balance the two and have a lovely warm bathe. This is a card of achievement and dominance in an area of emotional or spiritual interest. It is the energy of paternal care. Our king has travelled t

Tuesday: For all of us that have had technology issues this last Mercury retrograde, it stations direct tonight at 11pm GMT+1 [BST]. It will be mid July however before we are clear of its power. Today’s card asks us to engage with our intuition. It is about trusting our instincts and reconnecting to our true selves, our personal power. She steps up for us to guide us forward in knowing that all may not be as it would appear to be. In two days time we will have the full moon e

Thursday: We are dipping back into the water element with today's’ ten. The Shadowscapes Companion book shares: ‘The water swirls around the two of them. The wave-tops have been kissed by the sun, and the waters are warm and inviting. . . . The Ten of Cups is the final attainment of serenity and peace. Success and happiness have been granted at last – an all-encompassing emotional contentment, not just a physical or material pleasure. Family support and bonds are important to

Thursday: Our second day of 8 energy and today in the suit of the Cups. Eights are about mastering something. About positive change, movement, power and progress. Our eight of cups is the step before the wish fulfilment, so ‘hang on in there’. Don’t give up at the final hurdle. An energy of moving towards something better and in so doing walking away, saying goodbye to something else. The Shadowscapes Companion book shares: ‘. . . Slice through the waters. O Seeker of truth,

Monday: A similar set up to last week with four major arcana, one suit and two royals, starting today with the Queen of Pentacles. Queens are of the element of water and are caring, experienced and mature. Meanwhile the Pentacles are of earth element and this card is linked to the Sun sign of Capricorn. This is the last suit of the deck and therefore the most knowledgeable of the Queens and nicely portrayed here within the trunk of a tree, grounded and connected. She has garn

Thursday: How nice to see our lovely Queen of Cups stepping forward for us today. Yesterday we blew our wishes out to the Universe with the full moon energy. Today we receive the energy of faith that all will be as it needs to be for us. Our Queen steps knowingly without looking, trusting that the Turtles will be there to support each step she takes. The queen energy is of caring, experience and maturity. Queens are of the element of water as is the cups suit. Will this energ

Monday: Starting and ending this week with two major arcana cards we receive their fated energy with interest. Today another visit from the numerology energy of twelve and three by way of the Hanged Man who was also with us on Friday. *Joanne at Sacred Scribes, says of 12 that: ‘Angel Number 12 is a message from your angels to ensure that what you put out to the Universe is of a positive nature. You are asked to stay on a positive path and to use your natural skills, talents

Friday: Today we have another knock on energy from the previous day’s card as we continue with the water element of the Sun sign of Pisces and its attributes of emotion, imagination and intuition. The Hanged Man can be about indecision, intuition, prophecy and sensitivity. This is the energy of being in limbo, waiting and trying to look at things in a different way. A time to pause, to surrender, to release control. Associated to the planet Neptune, it is of dreams and illusi
