Tarot in the time of Covid-19 Reading #74 Social Justice Spread . How can I embrace social justice?: The World- wholeness, completion, integration The final card of the journey, signifying harmony and contentment from its completion. Everything has come together. Now is the time to contemplate on what it means to be whole- letting go of white supremacy and embracing anti-racism- and tune into my spiritual lessons. Embrace this energy every day. . What action can I join in with the community to take?: Nine of Pentacles- happy healthy home, abundance This is the time to enjoy the fruits of my hard work- I have been spending a lot of time creating readings and assignments in my course that responds to #BLM. I am in harmony with the environment around me. . What does the world need to heal from injustice?: Daughter of Swords- honest, insightful This is a woman whose honesty, frankness and insightfulness is valued, along with her keen observations. She never seems to stop “watching” and this can be a burden, since she can’t help notice. This noticing- using a new way of thinking, a new idea, a new perspective, new knowledge, or a new technique- through uncomfortable may be necessary for healing to happen. . Often a wound provokes an urgent yearning for wholeness and provides the ground to achieve it. In shadow work, the problem is part of the cure—you don’t heal the wound; the wound heals you.

I have not been in a mental state to do a reading for a while. But today... Tarot in the time of Covid-19 Reading #73 Social Justice Spread . How can I embrace social justice?: Nine of Staffs- resistance, strength, determination There is a reserve of energy left within that can carry me though this time of depletion. Have faith and trust in self and remember what I am fighting for. This will shield me from giving up. . What are my areas of unawareness when it comes to social justice: Ten of Blades- Karmic lessons, endings When I hit rock bottom, the impact may knock the wind out of me. But from this sense of defeat can come a clarity of purpose that helps me to rise up again. Accept that this movement involved painful awarenesses. Learn and move forward. . What action can I personally take to be of support?: Wheel of Fortune dormant- resistance to change, breaking cycles This is the time to hunker down and do the hard and unpleasant work- the work with no glory but the work that breaks negative cycles that do not serve social justice. . May we allow spirit to sustain and guide us from the path of dissolution. May we do work that matters. Vale la pena, it’s worth the pain. Gloria Anzaldúa .

Tarot in the time of Covid-19 Reading #72 . Context of the situation: Ace of Clouds- Consciousness There is a crystal clarity available to me now rooted in the deep stillness that lies at the core of my being. Moving from the unknown to the known, and from the known to the unknown is an eternal cycle towards enlightenment . Where you need to focus: XII New Visions When I open up to the ultimate, immediately it pours into me. I am presented with an opportunity to see life in all its dimensions- that the dark and the difficult are needed as much as the light and easy. By allowing all life’s colours to penetrate me, I become more integrated. . Outcome: Ace of Water- Going with the Flow This is the state of relaxation, ease, receptivity, of being available, and trusting that the water movement will support me and take me where I need to go. Flow also can mean performing an activity fully immersed, feeling an energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process. . By cultivating awareness, we minimize wounding; by maintaining compassion and empathy for those of different genders, races, classes, regions, generations, and physical and mental capacities, we link to them. To maintain our connections, we must cultivate liberating insights / conocimientos and radical realizations that burst through the cracks of our unconscious and flow up from our cenotes. We need artistic expressions and efforts that heal and inspire, that generate enough energy to make a difference in our lives and in those of others. We must create new art forms that support transformation. Gloria Anzaldúa . This journey attempts to build on the powers of hope and resistance and magick.

Tarot in the time of Covid-19 Reading #72 . Context of the situation: The World- completion, integration The cycle has [nearly] reached completion. Only two assignments left to grade to end this semester. Everything has come together and I am in the right place doing the right thing. But I need to avoid the urge to rush into the next project, but savour this fruitful ending. . Where I need to focus: Wheel of Fortune reversed- resistance to change Forced change triggers resistance, and being told the fall semester will be remote and I will have to adapt my highly interactive, embodied, connected, experiential teaching is triggering me big time. But I have a choice: hope things get better or take action to improve the situation. This card is suggesting that I accept the inevitable in order to flow. . Outcome: The High Priestess reversed- stillness This card is my major arcana archetype, and so is very significant here. Once I let go of my resistance, I am called to be still, and draw my attention inward to tap into my wisdom. This will show me the way to adapt my teaching. I should avoid being swept up in the drama and hidden agendas of others. My intuition is my superpower, and through it I will find my way. . Jumper card: Five of Swords reversed- reconciliation A particular thing I need to pay attention to is to give up my oppositional stance. Forgiving allows me to focus my energies on more constructive activities. . Without imagination, transformation would not be possible. Without creativity, “other” epistemologies—those of the body, dreams, intuitions, and senses other than the five physical senses—would not reach consciousness. Gloria Anzaldúa .

Tarot in the time of Covid-19 Reading #71 . Opportunity: 6 of Swords- hope at last, releasing baggage This card indicates recovery from difficult times, and a mental shift. I am just beginning to not feel the effects of my burn-out starting two years ago. Hope is on the horizon and things will get better, achieving a greater mental clarity and a renewed acceptance of change. I need to rest, revitalize, and surround myself with joy. I should plan a short trip to lift my spirits. Perhaps the grocery store? . Challenge: 2 of Cups- unified connection This card is about the flow between two people- deep connection and love relationships. Yes, friendships are strained during this time of quarantine. And being isolated for 41 days with the same person… Luckily our house has 3 floors! . Outcome: 9 of Pentacle- abundance This card indicates that if these challenges can be met through hard work, then the benefit will be newfound stability, happiness at home, and the ability to enjoy the finer things in life. I can now finally enjoy the fruits of my labour. While Pentacles typically focus on material wealth, this card also suggests that I will be in harmony with the environment around me- the beauty and abundance found in nature, harnessing this high-vibe energy to bring pleasure into my life. Y . It’s vital that we maintain our heritages’ useful, nurturing aspects but release the unproductive and harmful components. Gloria Anzaldúa .

Tarot in the Time of Covid-19 Reading #70 About the Self . Me: Eight of Blades- empowerment, new faith, restoration . This is the card of intergenerational trauma interrupted by new patterns that sustain healing and growth, supported by profound institutional and individual social change. Remove the blinders and escape the chains. Face fear in order to act and move forward. Ask for help. . My current path: Lil Gourd dormant- isolation, vindictiveness. . Feeling wounded, stuck, and disconnected from wells of light, love, and gentleness. Interrupt this path through play and creativity. . My potential: Five of Blades: vindication . This is a warning about defeat and the many forms it can take if continuing on the path of feeling wounded. . We are all wounded, but we can connect through the wound that’s alienated us from others. When the wound forms a cicatrix, the scar can become a bridge linking people split apart. What happened may not have been in our individual control, but how we react to it and what we do about it is. Let’s use art and imagination to discover how we feel and think and to help us respond to the world. Gloria Anzaldúa . This journey attempts to build on the powers of hope and resistance and magick.

Tarot Pulls for Change Reading #68 . Past: The Page of Wands- the home of fire, free spirit . In whimsical moments I would put on my armour and step into the minefield. Trauma shut down this ability. I can reconnect with my courage and bravery by plumbing the depths of my magic. I am up to the challenge. . Present: The Devil- the shadow self, limiting beliefs . I have fallen into the trap of the internal oppressor, believing that this will bring me safety and survival. This has caused me to lose the connections to my centres of energy. I need to count my wounds, and forgive myself for submitting and quitting. My current question: What will it take to escape what no longer serves me? . Future: The 7 of Pentacle: long-term view, sustainable results . This is the work of the abuelita, a vision in the making for 5 to 70 years, a labour of love, deeply seated in beauty. My plans may have strayed from my heart, and my magic may have dulled by losing touch with my journey. But I can refashion myself to be the future echo of my past. Motto: Perseverance without expectation. . the universe is a web—tightly woven connections of all living things past, present, and future, containing both positive and negative forces.

#Repost @adriennemareebrown (@get_repost) ・・・ Four of swords. “Postponement is simply st*pid. Tomorrow you will also have to decide, so why not today? And do you think that tomorrow you will be wiser than today? Do you think that tomorrow you will be livelier than today? Do you think that tomorrow you will be younger than today, fresher than today? Tomorrow you will be older, your courage will be less; tomorrow you will be more experienced, your cunningness will be more; tomorrow death will come closer--you will start wavering and being more afraid. Never postpone for the tomorrow. And who knows? Tomorrow may come or may not come. If you have to decide you have to decide right now. Make up your mind. Don't go on postponing infinitely. The relief and expansiveness you will feel once you put aside all the dithering thoughts that are preventing you from acting now will make you wonder why you ever waited so long.” from Osho Zen Tarot deck, #resistancetarot #movementtarot

Tarot Pulls for Change Reading #63 . Father of Swords: fair, analytical . Like all swords, the Father has a gift for perception. He has the ability to put aside his feelings in any situation, so that he can see it more truly from all angles, without the haze and cloud of emotional turmoil. He is respected for this ability by others, who describe him as fair, just, and deeply responsible with strong ties to his family. . When this card appears, I am in my power, ruling from a place of authority and respect. I stand firm in my truth and express myself with deep conviction. As a result, others pay attention to what I have to say. . In seeking the truths of our lives, let’s not draw back from what frightens us. Gloria Anzaldúa .

Tarot Pulls for Change Reading #62 . The Hermit . The Hermit is not suffering from pain, she is transforming it into magic. The Hermit built herself a sanctuary free from excess, but brimming with survival tools: music for dancing; a candle for channeling; a plant for oxygen; and a window for Light. The Hermit is focused on transforming the mind as the only tool you need to heal. . The Hermit is a silent meditation, a silent performance, or the artful YELLING that heals the soul, even if no one can hear you scream. Her art is singing along; she knows every word to every song that taught her how to fight. She asks you to do the same- to perform, breathe, and today, live for no one but your own reflection. She asks you to take what you gather and let it fortify you. She asks you to believe that someone somewhere misses you, and they will be ready when you are. . Nobody’s going to save you. No one’s going to cut you down, cut the thorns thick around you. No one’s going to storm the castle walls nor kiss awake your birth, climb down your hair, nor mount you onto the white steed. There is no one who will feed the yearning. Face it. You will have to do, do it yourself. Gloria Anzaldúa . This journey attempts to build on the powers of hope and resistance and magick.

Tarot Pulls for Change Reading #61 . The Three of Wands reversed: Playing small, lack of foresight, unexpected delays . How do I expect to grow if I am playing it safe, and staying within my comfort zone? This closes me off to new opportunities, and limits my potential. What is holding me back? Probably myself… Unexpected delays and creative blockages fuelled by self-doubt have popped up. I am feeling disappointment and frustration and wondering if I may have just wasted my time by even starting on this path. I am also struggling to put my (perhaps overly ambitious) plans into action and am now feeling worried that I have over-committed yourself. I need to accept that these setbacks are an essential part of my life’s journey and contribute to my personal evolution. .

You are surrounded by love, support, and compassion. It is now time to show it to others. The energy is high, and you’re here to do amazing things. . This card also invites you to collaborate with others on a creative project and inspire one another to reach new heights. Collectively, working towards a common goal for the greater good of others, and by reaching out to others and banding together, you can achieve a great deal by sharing your positive energy and passion with the wider community. .
