Whew, this month is a doozy! April roots us fully and firmly into the heart of Aries season on the wings of an Eclipse season and Mercury stationing retrograde. 

Our theme for the month of April is Declining the Invitation. We're not saying no to everything, or bypassing what matters. We're being invited into a space of deep reflection and review this month (hello Merc Rx & Eclipse szn), and as such, we cannot afford to put anything extra on our plate -- including unhelpful stories, untrue narratives, or pursuing stuff that's either a no or a not right now. Trusting in ourselves and the unfolding of things, as well as being extremely gentle with ourselves, is the order of the month ahead. 

Our Soul Tarot Reading for April

Card for the month ahead: The Lovers

How the month will feel to us: Three of Swords

How can we marry these two things together?: The Tethered One

Deepest lesson of the month ahead: The Hermit

What we’re being invited to pay attention to most: Six of Pentacles

An Aligned Action to take: Four of Cups

What we’re being invited to make space for and welcome in: Seven of Wands

Welcome to a new Monthly Medicine, loves! 

March always represents a powerful turning point on the wheel of the year, as it is the gateway into which we exit Pisces season (and all that that previous cycle represented and held for us) and enter a new astrological year on the wings of Aries season. Between that threshold and our first Eclipse of 2024, this March is shaping up to be quite momentous. 

Our theme for the month of March is Fullness. We're being invited to explore a few things around that theme: 1. the "fullness," zenith, or completion point of this cycle we've been in, and allowing that to be a jumping off point for deeper reflection about what we want to grow and foster on the other side, and 2. how to open to a greater sense of fullness and fulfillment around our own well being this month and beyond. 

Our Soul Tarot Reading for March

Card for the month ahead: Queen of Pentacles

How the month will feel to us: The Magician

How can we marry these two cards together?: Ace of Wands

Deepest lesson of the month ahead: Nine of Swords

What we’re being invited to pay attention to most: King of Swords

An aligned action to take: The High Priestess

What we’re being invited to make space for and welcome in: The Emperor

Today on the podcast we dive into two beautiful questions sent in to us by listeners: how can we trust in, and surrender to deep healing with The Star card when we have trauma around rest, and how can we square receiving Ten of Cups during a period of deep loneliness?

Happy Imbolc/Lughnasadh, loves! 

Our theme for the month of February is Warming. Things are beginning to warm, quicken, and stir this month. Indeed, much of the 8/Strength energy that we're going to be cycling through in 2024 is starting to come online. The seeds we've been sowing are coming to fruit, and we're opening to some newfound excitement and fresh energy in February. Our work will be to hold ourselves with gentleness and compassion through the expansions and contractions of the cycle ahead -- to root into our most restorative practices, and open to the supports (both internal and external) that feel the most accessible to us. 

Our Soul Tarot Reading for February

Card for the month ahead: The High Priestess

How will this quickening of the pace feel: Death

Deepest lesson of the month ahead: Nine of Swords

What’s asking for our attention most: Nine of Cups

What’s being cleared out: Seven of Cups

What’s cycling in: Knight of Wands

Honoring and acknowledging that this podcast episode was recorded on the unceded land of The Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, currently called Portland, OR, with the deepest respect to the Kalapuya Tribe, Cowlitz Tribe, and Atfalati Tribe.

Today on the podcast, we dive into three different questions, all centered on the same inquiry: how can we make peace with difficult, challenging, or disappointing card pulls around the year ahead? Together, we dive into how to begin to do this, and how this practice can serve to widen our capacity to remain present with difficult things happening outside of our Tarot practice.

Happy New Year, Wild Souls! We are finally here in 2024 -- a profoundly transformative and powerful year -- and January's energetic invitation is greeting us as warmly and as potently as we could possibly wish for. 

Our theme for the month is Beloved. January is a big month with a lot of strong invitations. We are really being asked to clear the deck, to look at things with fresh eyes, and to set down some new intentions. How can we be a beloved to ourselves as we navigate these things? How can we center our wellbeing and what our body and being are longing for as we do so? How would that change what we said yes or no to? 

Our Soul Tarot Reading for January

Card for the month ahead: Two of Pentacles

Deepest lesson of the month ahead: Four of Wands & Ten of Wands

What’s asking for our attention most: The Lovers

An action to take, if any: Ace of Wands

What’s being cleared out: Death

What’s cycling in: Ace of Pentacles

Today on the pod, we dive into The Nines of the Tarot, looking at how they can be of tremendous benefit to us in big or pivotal personal moments. The Nines invite us to come home to ourselves and respond to an inner need. Through our willingness to do so -- to be present with that part of ourselves -- we shift and transform, opening roads in our lives to new destinations. In today's episode, we will dive into The Nines, The Hermit, and how to work with these energies in practical, heart-led ways.

Deepest blessings to you at the crest of a new month, Wild Souls, on this very potent time of the yearly spiral. Happy Samhuinn, Halloween, and Day of the Dead to all those who celebrate and acknowledge them. 

The theme for November is Grief, and it is no wonder that it is. Whether witnessing the horrors happening in the world right now, or working through our own deep personal process, grief is at the center of this moment, and deserves our full attention. We are in a time of suspension and change, one that is highly liminal and unknown (hello, last few months in a Chariot year), which can bring up highly vulnerable, tender feelings. 

Our work in November will be to keep our hearts and eyes open, to nourish a soft front and a strong back (thank you to Alua Arthur for this sentiment), and to tend to ourselves and one another in these times in a way that is sustainable and useful. 

Our Soul Tarot Reading for November: 

Card for the month ahead: Queen of Pentacles and King of Cups

How can we work with the energy of this card?: Justice

What we’re being invited at offer our attention to most: The Magician Rx

The deepest lesson of the month ahead: Nine of Swords

How are we being invited to tend to ourselves most this month: King of Swords

How are we growing and transforming this month: Ten of Cups and Ten of Pentacles

Read the transcript: https://www.tarotforthewildsoul.com/episodes-transcripts/ep-249-monthly-medicine-november-is-grief

CW: grief, illness, injury, anxiety, ancestral trauma, death, loss of a loved one, genocide, violence, colonization, land-based trauma, parenthood, birth, and pregnancy

Today, we are responding to a listener question about how to work with ancestors when we don't necessarily align with or condone their behavior when they were alive. Together, we unpack the different ways we can frame our work with ancestors, and a Tarot anchor that can help! 

CW: mentions of parenthood, childhood trauma, abuse, eating/food, relationship to body, racism, inherited generational patterns, genocide, violence, slavery, colonization/settler harm, ancestral & land-based trauma, systemic oppression, white supremacy, and white privilege
