Hello everyone,
My name is Morgan Thomas and this is my first Insight Timer video.
I am going to be bringing to you a weekly card or cards from the Tarot to describe the energy of the week.
For this week it'll be January 2nd through January 9th and the energy of that.
For this week,
Before we start,
Let's go ahead and take three deep breaths.
Keep taking those breaths and get grounded into this moment with me.
We know that time is just a concept so whenever you listen to this,
Whenever you find this,
Know that it can still be helpful.
For this week,
I pulled two cards and the messages just came through very clearly.
The first card was the Ten of Swords and for my Tarot lovers,
I'm using the Modern Witch Tarot deck.
I pulled the Ten of Swords and for this card,
I actually have two Ten of Swords in this deck.
The card to them says,
Actually Ten of Swords in this card specifically says,
Everything is fine.
It shows a person on their phones and it's a modern day deck and they have swords all stabbed in their body.
I really just got this energy of this week is especially hard.
It's like the hardest Mondays of Mondays because we are coming out of the holidays.
We are coming out of time with being with family.
We're coming out of these really challenging,
Possibly overwhelming on our nervous system.
There's this pressure that comes with the new year and everyone celebrates the new year differently.
For a lot of people,
It's new year's resolutions,
A new slate starting over and we really see that with the second card I pulled,
Which is the Page of Wands reversed.
Any sort of page card in the Tarot is all about someone younger or starting something new,
Kind of like a fresh look on things.
This card is really saying to me that we're coming out of these trying times of the last year we just had and the years before.
It's really okay for us to kind of turn a blank page and start again.
But also there's this reminder that I'm feeling that it's okay if we aren't ready to jump right into this newness.
So for some people,
It could be a daily routine they're trying to incorporate or a new career they're going after or a new mindset or love or a new hobby.
I really think these cards are honoring that if you feel this duality of maybe some of us do feel ready to go for the new year,
To start our new things.
But I also think that for some of us,
Maybe a lot more of us,
We're still kind of working through of what just happened with the past year.
It could be grief,
It could be loss.
And the Ten of Swords is,
I don't say this in a pity way,
It's one of the saddest cards in tarot.
It is just exhaustion,
Burnout.
I don't think anything super huge has to happen for us to still recognize that life is just difficult and we can experience intense feelings of burnout and exhaustion.
And maybe we're just not ready this week to start that new thing,
To start the new spiritual practice,
To start the increasing our water intake or whatever it is that's been kind of weighing on you.
I really feel this sense of trust that you will know when it is time to change,
When it is time to take the next step.
I think within the year there's this culture that we all have to be ready and all on the same page at the same time.
And these cards are saying,
Take your time.
Because we just came out of a year of completion and Ten in Tarot is all about completion and end of a cycle and we just sure came out one heck of a year.
So I really want to encourage you with these cards and this message here that it's okay if you aren't ready.
And if you are ready that's great too.
Think honoring ourselves in our own pace and we can do this by turning inward.
Maybe take some time journaling after this to reflect on what it is you want to change and how will you know when you're ready.
If you're into astrology,
Honing in on that,
If you're into human design,
Honing in on that.
I know for me as a generator I have to really have a full body yes before I can take on the next sort of self development thing.
So those are the cards for this week.
Thank you so much for tuning in.
I hope this resonated and was helpful in some way.
And I will talk to you soon.
Take care.
