Forgiveness

It's time to release any feelings of long-held resentment. Yes, we have had wrongs done to us, but thoughts of revenge only drag us through spiritual mud. Let go and let the Universe deal out the karmic lessons.

A faceless figure cloaked in darkness rests their hands on two twisted rods on either side of them. Behind them, a swirling vortex of rust red and orange flame reaches to the top of the card where a crescent of shadow crowns the cloud. "Justice" written at bottom of card.

Ignite your magnetism

Allow your logical brain to sleep for a bit (a big ask for Air signs, I know). Words only convey so much; communicate more with your charisma and body-speak. Indulge in things and activities that make you feel powerful.

A woman in a gown of midnight shadows stands surrounded by lit black candles. A black cat sits attentively by her side, watching with glowing golden eyes. This Queen of Shadows holds in her palm a lit candle, in the other is suspended a crescent moon on a chain. The sky behind her is a deep blue with flames of red and cream. "Queen of Candles" written at the bottom of card.

Inner Sanctuary

Take this time to retreat into yourself. What is draining you of your life force? Honor yourself with the protection of rest and contemplation. After you have regenerated, return to your responsibilities rejuvenated.

Against a sky of swirled colors, four cloaked figures resembling the Grim Reaper (or Ring Wraiths, take your pick) stand in a formation. The two outer cloaks stand facing inwards toward the remaining two, using hand gestures as though in prayer. The center two cloaks: one is on its knees in prayer, the other is standing. The center figure's cloak has a dark red hue and it appears to be exuding flames from around the hood.

Creating Happiness

They say if you have lemons, make lemonade. You are taking the sum of your experience thus far and performing spiritual alchemy, Sagittarius. Your inner state is a balance that you are taking seriously, actively creating transmutation.

A shadowy skeleton is silhouetted against a background o f rust reds and creams, blending and bleeding together to created a rippled texture. The skeleton hold a goblet in one hand and pours its red liquid contents carefully into another goblet placed on a black pillar. "Temperance" is written at the bottom of the card.

Gift of choice

Every little thing affects something else, and so on. Mind your habits, and embrace the power of baby steps towards your goals. Eventually a situation that felt limited and closed will expand into many possibilities.

What You Want

Ordinarily, one may want to exercise inhibition in the physical realm, but this is about knowing what you want to embody within yourself. You have an image of who you are, deep down. Now go for it. Release yourself from this burden of pseudo-you.

A figure resembling the Grim Reaper sits in a chair, floating in the ethereal realm; its black robes flow with an unseen breeze, flourishes of red subside into blues and grey for a backdrop. The figure holds a sword by its side.

Master of planning

Know what works for you, Virgo. If circumstances threaten to become unruly and beyond your control, let it be. However, create a plan for how you desire to meet these challenges head-on. You can't control the tides, but you can control you.

A figure stands upon a twisted and shadowy pedestal, holding an orb of equal darkness. On either side is a staff adorned with a lit candle. Splashes of color fill the background; shades of pink, blue and cream bleed together. "Two of Candles" is written at the bottom of the card.

Leo, your heart is as the heart of a lion. You give so much of yourself in the name of love, making the world a better place - when you are truly yourself. It's time to remove the things that shadow your light. Sometimes the situation is black and white.

Embody abundance

Feel the earth in your bones. Know you are provided for in all things. You attract what you exude, so be the energy you wish to draw into yourself. Be the boss of your reality. Like attracts like.

Half empty, or...?

If you feel as though you can't break through a wall, become the stone that forms the wall. What stories of the Water element (emotions, regret) are holding back your progress? Progress is by nature slow, but you must focus on the cup that is full.

Your house is not falling

It's natural to second guess the stability of your reality. If it feels unstable, it's only a phase. Embrace the dance and show gratitude for what you have built and the gifts you have been given. It will fall into place.

A shadowy figure resembling a skeleton poses among four staffs, holding a human skull in its hand, outstretched as though considering - or even dancing - with the unusual relic. The four staves are adorned with lit candles; a flowery garland is stretched between the foremost staves. "Four of Candles" is written at the bottom of the card.

No way around it...

Drained or undermined by your social group? Remove yourself. You are an embodiment of the Fire element. Some are unable to handle your heat, so instead they attempt to tear you down or fill you with doubt. Be true to you, dear Aries.

Cloaked and formed into a gaggle, nine (for lack of a better description) Grim Reapers hover over a drained and stricken figure who is huddled and weeping into their hands. Some of the cloaked beings bear crosses on their chests. One is seated in a luminous real chair, overseeing the work done to the bereft individual at his feet. Ripples of cream and purple form to create the background of the card; "Nine of Cloaks" is written at the bottom of the card.

Make space for the new

There is only so much space within our realm of reach. In order to bring into our lives the new and bountiful, one must be willing to let go of previously held beliefs that have grown tired. Hold on to the things that bring abundance.

A golden pentacle lies in its element of rich earth, green and vibrant vines grow in a protective circle around it. The center of the pentacle appears to have its own inner light.

Release yourself

Time to close out recurring cycles of pain, perpetuated by cyclical thoughts. Release guilt, regret, and scars that hold you prisoner to patterns you want to escape. The World is a strict teacher, but you are forged from spiritual ether.

A figure stands among a vortex of clouds. Above is a rounded ripple of light and color. "The World" in golden lettering at bottom of the card.

Tunnel vision

Don't obsess over details: you may never move forward. Focus on the tangible, even baby steps, toward your goal. You don't have to be an exhibitionist to be noticed or forge a path, just be steady and patient.

A young woman stands in a tunnel of trees, staring forward with intensity, her wavy brown hair is blown back from her face gently. Her dark green and brown robes match her forested abode. Suspended from her hand is a golden chain, affixed with a six-pointed pentacle. "Page of Pentacles" in golden lettering at bottom of card.

Injustice, noise, chaos, doubt -
These things can drown out your inner child. This volatile state is inevitable at times, but you can find your balance again through a cathartic experience. What would the pure child within do to restore internal justice?

The untamed waters of the sea bend in DNA spirals upward towards a heavenly body that isn't fully the sun, nor fully the moon. What appears to be a figure with outstretched arms stands atop the spiral of blue and green waters, silhouetted against the heavenly body. Suspended above is a symbol, woven and knotted, like fishing hooks and wire. Everything appears in contrast, yet balanced. "Two of Pentacles" in golden lettering at bottom of the card.

Veiled in shadow, boundless potential.

Pulled in many directions, unable to bridle your deepest desires. Meet with yourself to become completely clear about what truly matters to you. Further, ask what needs to be removed in order to create that reality.

A silhouetted figure sits among a golden forest, light cascading down from the heavens all around her, yet somehow she herself remains hidden in shadow. "The Empress" in golden lettering at bottom of card.

Restore your balance.

There's no shortage of stimuli that leaves your empathic-self drained and in need of bandaging. Falling in love with life can seem like a childhood dream, but there are ways to romance your life again. Find what feeds your inner wonder.

A waterfall cascades gently into a tranquil pool. The streams of water fall in an otherworldly evenness, as though a perfect balance has been achieved within nature. An angelic white light spreads soft rays that alight upon the crest of the falls. "Ace of Cups" in golden lettering at the bottom.

Inner dialogue makes or breaks.

Tune into yourself. It's time. Ask if the inner dialogue you keep fills you with strength, or rips into you like a beast with bloodlust. The old story of the white wolf versus the dark wolf stands: the one you feed wins.

A maiden and a wolf commune together in peace. The young woman's head tilts to nearly touch the furry brow of a complacent yet alert wolf. The wolf stares at her intently with a golden glow in his eye. The woman's hands gently rest on the beast's face. A golden light envelopes the pair as they speak of things we do not know. "Strength" in golden lettering at bottom of the card.

Unity of Division.

True meaning in a connection isn't synonymous with always being in perfect harmony. Through our differences we challenge one another and, if we approach it with the correct mindset and healthy dialogue, we support one another to grow and love.

Two silhouetted figures stand face to face, surrounded by a golden light. The card is split into two colors; midnight blues and blacks on the left, blood oranges on the right. "The Lovers" in gold lettering at the bottom.

You can't lose (or win) if you don't play.

Gracefully removing yourself from a situation can act as the proverbial "ounce of prevention". Sometimes the game is rigged, but sometimes the threat is only in our mind. Use your intuition on whether to engage or bow out.

Silhouetted against calm waters, a figure sits on the embankment. A large tree towers over, dark and quiet. Mists rise from the waters and small clusters of light, like golden galaxies speckle the scene, as though waiting to be reached out and touched. "Four of Cups" in gold lettering at bottom of the card.

Gentle, yet sharp.

Embrace the higher nature of your Air element. Honor your inner realm of emotions, but do not let it lead you astray. A clear mind, a precise purpose, and straight speech that rings with truth shall be your weapon against the unknown.

A young queen sits upon a throne made of swords. Ringlets of her golden hair escape from under her crown, cascading gently across her shoulders, matching her reflective posture. She sits quietly, considering the sword's hilt clasped in her capable hands. The blade rests between her thighs, surrounded by her blood-red battle gown. She carries the weight of knowing her mind can save or destroy lives. "Queen of Swords" in gold fancy lettering at bottom of card.

You are outgrowing a situation.

While accepting the inevitable nature of change can bring a sense of emptiness, remember this sensation is temporary and will just as inevitably clear a space for a newfound sense of fulfillment. Stand strong and carry on.

Like jagged teeth, mountains loom tall and dark, full of unknowns. A lone figure stands before them, silhouetted by the faint yet hopeful glow of fireflies, illuminating the path ahead. "Eight of Cups" in fancy gold lettering at bottom of tarot card.

A pillar of fire explodes from a barren valley, reaching for unknown heights, casting off sparks. The caption "Ace of Wands" at the bottom of the card in gold fancy lettering.

My first thought was earthquake damage, then I considered your post description. I then thought, “Oh, it’s going to be a swarm of bugs.”

I’m delighted by how wrong I was! Great artwork! 🖤
