Pick a pile: what to focus on this month

I wanted to do a short and simple reading for you all today. Choose a pile and read about your focus for the month of March

Pile one:

Ten of Wands

You may find yourself taking on extra responsibilities in the month of March. Some of these things will be because you need to and some will be because you feel like you have to. During March, do your best to prioritize the needs vs wants. By the end of the month, things will ease up a bit and you’ll be able to take a rest.

Pile two:

The High Priestess

This is a month of spiritual growth, pile two! You are being called to listen to your intuition, trust your guides, and embrace your divine femininity. In the duel against head or heart, your head has been winning lately. Logic and plans both have their place and are important, but it’s time to listen to your heart. Really focus on how you feel this month.

Pile three:

Nine of Cups

This month, take a step back and look at all of the beauty in your life. Your life is filled with love, friendship, happiness, and success. Don’t focus on making changes or feel pressured to DO things. Our world is so focused on go, go go, and NOT going can make us feel like we’re failing. But, what they don’t want you to know, is that enjoying your life in the here and now can be just as revitalizing. Using this month to simply appreciate life will make you even stronger for April.

Pile four:

Two of Cups rev. and The Sun

Self-love is the theme of March for you, my lovely fours. I think it’s something you’ve been working on and you’ll really be stepping into the power of it this month. Do the things that make you happy and fill your heart with warmth. Stay positive even on the crappy days, and let your light shine. People are noticing your radiance and they are so happy for you (and because of you).

Monster Girl October (tarot deck) day 15: Rexy from Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park as the 10 of wands card!

The ten of wands (or staves) suggests burden, responsibility, accomplishment, or sometimes a lack of perspective. I think the situation of bringing back dinosaurs for entertainment make Rexy and the other dinosaur ladies at Jurassic Park suit the card well! Here, the 10 wands are pikes in the electric fence that is failing to hold her back.

The Ten of Wands is a lonely place to be, it’s feeling as if the entire universe rests upon the path you set out for it. Everything depends on you and you regret the price you’ve had to pay to get to this point but you still have to follow through.

Ten of Wands and Seven of Swords

You're both so busy that you barely even manage to nod a polite greeting as you pass.

Ten of Wands & FE3H

The Ten of Wands depicts an all out effort that demands everything in the name of success. It shows a figure striving against impossible circumstances and the presence of too many burdens in order to return to the safety of their home. 

This is less of an event and more of an ongoing circumstance. Petra participates in the Empire’s war in order to win her and her people’s freedom. Although she is not technically from Adrestia, her long tenure in the country as a hostage colours her with many of the markers of ambition and their effects. She will sacrifice everything to gain independence for her nation, because the other option is vassalage forever. Although she is treated as a second-class citizen, she still strives for her goals tirelessly. She is holding all of her own ambitions, the hopes of her people, and the burden of the Empire’s war in her arms as she charges onwards. 

I like this card so much when it comes to thinking about Petra’s position. The figure is looking down at his feet, his vision completely obscured by the Wands. Petra as well, does not have the luxury of looking forward to the future. She is overburdened with all her responsibilities as a vassal of the Empire, and as a princess of Brigid. The pose of the figure is hunched over, with the shoulders raised in discomfort. Petra says in some of her supports with Byleth how uncomfortable she is in the Empire, but she must endure for her people. And finally, we see the castle in the distance, warm and inviting. Just like the figure, Petra is trying to find a way home. She must carry all of these burdens in order to regain independence for her nation.

Q: Is it The Fool or The Magician in tarot that is related to the Joker in a deck of standard playing cards? Which one is a trickster?

“Whoa, the dogs are howlin', all over the neighborhood/ That’s a sign of some dark double dealin’, baby,/ And that ain't no good,” Willie Dixon.

The world is full of trickster spirits. They appear in every culture and every religion, from Lucifer to Loki, Anansi to Maui. Possessing great intelligence and occult knowledge in one form or another, they most commonly function as a dire (often humorous) example of what happens to people when go against the norm. Coyote’s eyes are yellow because he was tricked into trading them for some tree sap. Curupira, a spirit with backwards feet, loves creating misleading paths in order to get people lost. One could argue that the concept of the Hungry Ghosts, found throughout much of Asia, are themselves tricksters, pretending to be things that they are not in order to get the prayers and energy from unsuspecting mortals. How people who take spirits at face value are able to distinguish between what really is and what they’re told as a form of manipulation has always been a bit of a mystery to me.

To answer this question, though, the only similarities for me between the Fool and the Joker are in their costumes, which were modelled on European court jesters. The Fool in the Rider-Waite deck is all about taking that first step into the unknown, whereas the Joker would be actively trying to get you to forget why you even rolled out of bed that morning and wouldn’t doing something else be a lot more fun?

In the Tarot of Syssk (where these images come from), the 10 of Wands is all about being unable to see what is right in front of you. The card speaks to the 4 of Sword's warning that a sinister shadow might be concealed in the most charming of outer appearances. Here the drummer stops beating her drum when she realizes that the figure before her is not ol’ Cousin Earl, but actually a Kitsune, a fox spirit, using a life-size puppet to manipulate others.

Sadly, Syssk (like so many of us) is spending far more time jamming on her biwa than paying attention to the world around her and remains oblivious to any danger (pratfalls and zaney misunderstandings are bound to follow).

What to leave behind and what to bring into the new month

Happy last week of January! Pick a group for insights on what you should leave behind as the month ends and what you can focus on in the new month ahead. Let me know if you have any topics you'd like me to pull for!

My dear pile one,

It is time to let go of your need to do everything on your own. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or weighed down by your responsibilities – or what you think is your responsibility – try remembering that you’re not alone and there are people here to help carry the load. Allow others to help, even in small ways.

Personal growth and development may be a great focus point for you in the upcoming month. The Magician brings forth the tools and energy you need to make progress in this personal journey. Focus on your “why” and look inward at your power. This period of growth will last you throughout (and beyond) the month, so don’t get hard on yourself if you don’t see immediate results. Growth is not linear.

Hello lovely twos,

Rather than the Tower representing a destruction that has already happened/is currently happening, I think you’re being told to leave January with a bang (semi-literally), and create the destruction of your self-limiting beliefs. Light up some sticks of dynamite, rev up the bulldozer, or get that wrecking ball swinging cause we’re not going into the new month with any of our same thoughts. Your self-limiting beliefs have felt like a chaos storm in your brain, and this is your permission to let them go.

February is a month of self-exploration. It is a month to figure out why these self-limiting beliefs exist. This may be a good time to do some shadow work. Shadow work is tough, but I think some good realizations can come out of it. Here are some shadow work prompts if you’re ready to get started. You may find truths you didn’t know existed. Or you may find yourself answering just as you’d expect, but this time… it’s gonna hit different. You’re going to find answers for yourself which will put a lot into perspective and really help with letting go of your self-doubt.

For those who aren’t ready to dive deep into the darker parts of your soul (which is A-OK!), take a look at the resources at your fingertips. How can you align these resources with your goals? For example, do you have a goal to say nicer things to yourself each day? Make yourself a daily check list – add some normal items like “1 hour with no screen time” or “brush your teeth” and then add “say one good thing about yourself”. As you check of the easier items, you’ll see the tougher ones. And in an effort to make those check marks, you’ll get in the groove of participating in the hard tasks.

My pile three friends,

Teamwork and collaboration seems to have been a theme in January. Whether it be your new years resolution, a project at work, or homing in on a new habit, the foundation was set in this last month. I wouldn’t say you’re really leaving anything behind, but the creation stage is ending. You are moving forward into the stabilization and growth phases of this beautiful thing you’ve launched.

Bring this sense of accomplishment into February with you to start the month off strong. You’ve done really great work! One great way to keep momentum is a partnership between your higher self and the work you are doing. As you continue to build on the project you started think: what can I get out of this project personally and what can I bring to this project to ensure it thrives. You will feel better about the end results knowing that it made your heart happy and that you had something to do with its success.

To my pile fours,

You know what your higher self is trying to tell you. You know what your guides are hinting at. Maybe it seems too good to be true or it’s scary, but either way, you gotta get rid of the clouds you’re using as a way to doubt yourself. I know from experience that self-doubt speaks LOUD. It is MEAN. But it is soo worth getting past. It doesn’t mean it’ll go away for forever, but it sure can get quieter.

In this situation, “clarity” can be seen as the opposite of “cloudy” , and mental clarity is exactly what the King of Swords wants you to bring into/work on in the new month. You may not be ready to jump right into this new thing in February, but you can do the work this month to feel more confident when the time officially comes. Lay out the facts for yourself: I have done hard things in the past; I have the resources I need to be successful; I have people I know will support me when it gets difficult. And repeat these facts to yourself as much as you need to. As with pile two, you could do some shadow work to  bring clarity to why you feel this hesitancy to move forward.
