Let’s drop in on a reading from this past month.
Finishing as we started, I will pull in a few additional reading tools for this month’s reading because (to quote myself), “When you mix tools, new and unexpected insight rises to the top.”
Here, I use tarot cards, charms, and crystals. Notice that some of the themes are recurring; for me, this acts as confirmation.
The client was looking for guidance on moving forward in a business relationship. There are many messages here, and none are wrong. So I would like to invite you to apply the reading to yourself. Sit with what speaks to you, and leave the rest.
Pay Attention To:
🔮 Where do your eyes land first? (card, crystal, charm, color, image?)
🔮 How do you feel? (any emotion coming up for you?)
🔮 What does your intuition say?
The Strength card symbolizes the inner courage that helps us succeed in facing life’s challenges. We need to reinforce strength daily—like how we need to keep lifting weights to remain strong. You build strength whenever you speak up for yourself or act in your best interest—even if you feel scared or weak. Strength is a choice. You can crouch and hide, or you can meet a challenge head-on. The woman (a picture of composure and poise) is calm and ideally at ease, and the lion looks at her with trust in his eyes. There’s no struggle here. This is a card of self-discipline, boundary setting, and grace under pressure.
Shark Charm
Sharks symbolize power, strength, and tenacity and have a fantastic sense of smell. They have no problem sniffing what they most need or when they smell something is off! The shark personality is hard-driving, in your face, and results-oriented. They are motivated by money, recognition, and significance. Sharks have no natural predators and can represent an unwillingness to be victimized or intimidated by others.
Crystals
Tiger’s Eye – Keywords are Strength, Courage, Leadership, Success, and Grounding. It is an energy-healing crystal used for manifesting inner strength and helping develop ironclad willpower. A root and sacral chakra stone that allows you to get grounded, build a safe and strong foundation, and find your motivation once more.
Chrysocolla – Keywords are Communication, Gentleness, and Power. This empowers the feminine energies found in both women and men. It stimulates the throat chakra for clear communication of your inner wisdom. Chrysocolla can also help you learn what wisdom is. The process of formulating and speaking your ideas can reveal your inner wisdom.
Message
Themes revolving around strength, courage, leadership, empowerment, and boundary-setting are present. While there may have been some fear around setting stronger boundaries, a recent breakthrough or newfound clarity connects you to your courage/confidence and strength/resilience that felt out of reach. Ground yourself, trust your intuition, and speak your truth. You get to decide what happens next.
🤔 Questions to Consider or Journal About:
- When have you felt stronger than your challenges?
- Where in your life do you most need strength?
- What makes you feel most vital and alive?
