Hey there,
My name is Lisa and welcome to Timeless Tara,
Your intuitive reading for your week ahead.
You have chosen the Garnet Spider.
Garnet is a grounding stone,
A stone for deep emotion associated with the root chakra.
If you know about root chakra work,
It symbolizes passion and life force and commitment to one's purpose,
Often associated with protection and stability.
The spider is the sacred weaver of destiny and creativity.
Spider represents manifestation,
Interconnectedness,
Feminine power,
Shakti energy.
They have the ability to shape their reality through intentional action.
The spider also represents patience,
And it calls us to slow down and trust the web we are weaving.
So together,
This symbolism is very deeply the energy of rooted creation,
Intentional weaving of desires,
Stability during spiritual growth.
So here you are,
My Garnet Spider group,
That is your symbol that you have chosen.
Let's go ahead and dive on into your tarot card reading.
Alright,
My Garnet Spider group,
You have received the seven of wands in reverse.
The seven of wands upright normally means a boundary,
A defending of your position.
There's a challenge or perseverance,
But through protecting yourself and protecting what is yours,
Whether that be your peace,
Whether that be your dreams,
Your ideas,
You are standing your ground in a sense.
This is very Mars energy,
Very Sagittarius and Leo energy,
I would also say,
Maybe even Taurus with standing your ground,
But it is in reverse.
So with the reversal,
It usually is that that energy is there,
But it is in a point where it is being expressed differently.
Maybe there's this overwhelm.
Maybe you feel that you are slowly being broken down.
Maybe there's this idea of quitting or surrender or yielding.
Maybe it's this idea of exhaustion and I just can't keep fighting anymore.
I can't keep trying to put up these boundaries.
I can't keep trying to say the same thing over and over and over again,
Just to be unheard at the end of the day,
Or I can't keep going for the same dream,
Just to feel like I'm not getting there.
There's this huge point of wanting to admit defeat.
But I feel within this card,
The seven of wands happens on the wands journey towards the end.
And this is the deck of creativity and passion and mastering your creativity,
Your fire,
Your passion.
I keep hearing the word in Japanese,
Ikigai,
In a sense,
Your destiny.
And it's very easy to just want to give up,
Especially when you're almost at your breaking point.
But what I'm sensing from this,
My garnet spider group,
Is because you have chosen the garnet spider,
Which is about rooted groundedness and manifestation and patience with this particular card of seven of wands,
Which asks us to stand our ground and persevere and protect our dreams,
Protect our peace,
Protect our territory,
Protect our position.
There is this energy that is,
I almost feel like you're being called to keep going.
You're being called to take a rest,
But do not admit defeat.
Because he who hesitates may lose the opportunity.
He who doubts or she or they who may doubt themselves may not give themselves the opportunity or the courage to keep going and to keep fighting.
This is a very interesting card.
The more I look at it,
Because it usually depicts someone in the center with one staff,
One wand,
As other people around them are kind of poking at them.
This could also be a card where,
I'm going to be honest,
If someone sees,
Especially because they're at the top of the mountain,
If someone sees you're at the top of your game or at the top of your mountain,
Or maybe if it's even yourself where you feel you're in the perfect position to go for something,
It is very easy to want to give up then.
I think for whatever reason,
Especially if we've,
And I don't want to keep,
Because I'm now learning as we dive deeper into this age of Aquarius,
We can always blame things on our trauma,
Right?
We can always blame things on our past.
We can always shift the blame to other people.
But there comes a time when after the healing and the processing and the acceptance of,
Yes,
That happened to us,
We did not deserve that,
There comes a time where we have to put the power into our own hands.
Thinking about the spider in this position,
I see the spider very grounded and waiting.
It does not fear that the other spiders are saying your web is so strangely placed,
Or you're such a small spider,
Or any sort of negativity that may come your way,
Or maybe even internal negativity,
There is this patience,
There is this perseverance,
There is this challenge of the challenging aspects of life.
And you're protecting yourself,
Group garnet spider,
You are protecting yourself because you're protecting a jewel,
Something important.
So for this week,
The journal questions are,
Is,
Do I need to protect something that may feel like a burden,
That may feel exhausting?
But do I need to protect that thing,
That thing that I'm passionate about,
That thing that calls to me?
Maybe it's that someone,
Maybe it's your piece.
What am I protecting?
What am I weaving into reality that may need more perseverance,
More patience,
And more boundaries?
How do I best ground down into what I'm cultivating for myself this week?
No matter how seemingly big or small,
It could be seemingly as small as tidying up your space,
Or as huge as changing careers,
Or gaining a new family member.
How do you ground down into the intention of what you are protecting?
What do you need to protect on this journey?
So with that,
My group garnet spider,
That is your reading for your week ahead.
Thank you so much for joining me,
And I will see you next time.
Take care and bye for now.
