Queen of Disks and Three of Wands
This week marks the start of a new month, offering us a chance to begin anew while we navigate the passionate energy of Leo Season. The cards are here to share their guidance on how to move through the days ahead.
Our first card this week is the Queen of Disks. This card is connected to our strong female ancestors who want to support us. In times of struggle, the Queen of Disks often appears. She lets us know the true power of our presence.
I believe this Queen is speaking to us individually and the world as a whole. She is here to remind us of our collective power.
With her crown of twisted horns, this fierce Queen sits on her throne and surveys her land. She has come far and is taking time to look back at all she has accomplished. She reminds us to do the same.
Underestimating our ability to handle what lies ahead and overestimating how challenging it will be is where our fear lives. The Queen reminds us that we can tackle anything we are faced with and always have. The next thing we face will be no different.
The Queen of Disks is an earth card and brings a grounding force. She helps us connect to our core and plant our feet securely on the ground. I need that kind of energy right now, and I’m sure many of us do as well.
This card is also the ‘queen’ of boundaries. She helps us say no to things that bring us down and say goodbye to people who drain us. We are too smart and experienced to allow our energy to be harmed.
We have overcome challenges and let go of people who did not serve our highest good. We no longer accept toxic behavior from others.
Like the Queen, we are growing older, but instead of being bitter or jaded, we are becoming wiser and more confident. We know what we are capable of and are proud of the person we are becoming.
The passage of time has given us strength and intelligence. We are grateful for our past because it has made us who we are. We are also excited about our future because we will use our wisdom to accomplish great things.
By making decisions that raise our vibrations and propel us forward, we are walking the path of the Queen of Disks. Her comfort and power will guide us to our next evolution through compassion and wisdom.
The Three of Wands is our next card and is connected to our journey towards inner truth and discovery. It is easy to misinterpret this card as about doing the right thing according to societal codes. Instead, the Three of Wands is about personal excellence in our beliefs and actions.
This card asks us to determine what is important to us and to live our lives in connection with our values. It calls upon us to establish and maintain high standards and have the confidence and strength to uphold them daily.
Spend time this week thinking about your core virtues by writing a ‘mission statement’ for your life at this moment. Quiet your mind with a centering practice, like a long walk or journaling. Write down what matters to you the most and how you intend to bring that to life.
Explore ways to integrate your values into your daily life. Consider where you might be disconnected from your values and how you could adjust. Taking the time to regularly reflect on what is most important to you can lead to more purpose and fulfillment.
And forgive yourself for the ways you might have strayed from your center. Know that we always have time to reconnect to what is meaningful to us.
Mantra for the week: I draw strength from my ancestors, protectors, and my own divine power, and I live out my beliefs through my actions.
