The cards pulls for this week are quite interesting. They bounce back and forth between focusing on yourself and being mindful of how your energy projects itself into the world. Of knowing that your life isn’t going to be the same as someone else’s but also knowing that you have to separate what’s happening for someone else away from what’s happening with you. That can be especially challenging in this age when we have so much access to everyone else. Privacy is becoming more and more of a luxury and with that unlimited access, it’s all too easy to compare yourself to a life that has very little it at all to do with your own.
The biggest takeaway from this week, is that you are encouraged to have the best energy you can personally have. And isn’t the timing appropriate for Leo season? The zodiac sign that is responsible for your interests, desires and how you express yourself. I want to drive home the idea that you can live a beautiful life while having compassion for others who cannot. You can celebrate your own wins even while someone else is going through something difficult. That doesn’t make you a bad person or insensitive. It makes you a human, who’s doing the best you can to live life the best way you can. So hold onto that if nothing else.

I would argue that the most healing thing one can do is to be yourself. And not in the spiritual self-help kind of way. I mean to truly embrace yourself at the deepest levels. To exist without diminishing or apologizing for anything that makes you odd. To see whatever you perceive as a weakness as something to wear with pride. To look something in the face and say “thank you” whenever they throw something at you that’s meant to be an insult. Frankly, they should be too busy minding their own business to worry about yours. Healing doesn’t mean you need to fix yourself or overcome your shortcomings or let go of your past. It means holding your head up high despite all of that. You may have to force yourself to do this for a time but once you do, there is very little anyone can do to make you feel like a problem to solve. Stop being humble. Stop being embarrassed. Say “and?” when someone tries to put you down. You don’t need to earn the right to do that. You just have to decide that’s what you want and claim it.

This card represents good fortune and a positive change in your circumstances. On the surface, it might seem like a card of good luck but luck doesn’t have much to do with it. Good fortune finds you when you’re willing to do the work. When you show up for yourself and do what’s required to heal, grow or evolve. That means you aren’t making excuses or coming up with reasons why you “can’t.” The most important thing to remember when receiving this card is that nothing is going to drop in your lap. You want to receive good fortune, well, stop expecting a miracle and instead, start reminding yourself everyday that anything is possible when you work hard enough for it. They say luck is preparation meeting opportunity so start preparing yourself for greatness and you will start to see a much bigger harvest.

This is a card of collaboration. It invites you to bring together many parts to facilitate a greater whole. That could be many different people coming together to work towards a common goal. It could also be combining your years of experience to help you achieve a major dream. Nothing can be achieved as a sole entity. No successful person achieved success alone. There is always someone who contributed something meaningful and allowed that success to happen. This is your sign to ask for help, enlist a partner, learn from someone more knowledgeable or to seek support in any way necessary for you to get shit done. You don’t have to do anything alone if you choose not to. There are people out there who can help you but that also means, you have to be willing to ask for it.

A comment might seem meaningless to you or even funny and good natured but be mindful about how cruel words can be. Calling someone fat, plain, boring or slow can severely harm someone in ways you may never realize. Others have to carry your comments with them. You may forget after a few moments but you never know how one comment might stay with someone for years. Poetry appears to remind you that the words you speak matter. Not just to others but to yourself too. There is such a thing as self-bullying. Every time you make a mistake and think “ugh, I’m so stupid” or look in the mirror and ask “why are you so fat?,” you’re bullying yourself, same as if you said it to someone else. Reread that sentence and think about how many times you’ve said similar things over the years. Now add that up. Have you put yourself down dozens, hundreds or even thousands of times? No wonder you believe the words you say to yourself; you’ve said it so many times, how could you not? Never diminish the quality of your words. You’re speaking your story into existence with each and every word you say.

Everybody’s path is different, I know you know this. But do you believe it? Do you know that you don’t have to compare yourself to someone else? Do you understand that your life isn’t supposed to look like theirs to be valuable? I know it’s easier said than done but I also know that you aren’t doing yourself any favors by being jealous. You’re putting energy into someone else’s basket when you focus on what they have. That’s energy that could be directed towards your own desires and plans. And if you aren’t careful, you’ll waste so much time trying to reach someone else’s branch that your own branch will wither and die beneath your feet. And guess what, that person will still have what they have while you’re the one who ends up with even less. The grass is greener where you water it so stop looking at their green acres and start watering your own garden.

Poppy comes into a reading when you’re tired, burnt out, or you’re so overneeded that you can’t see to your own needs. And you want to know what happens when you feel like this? You aren’t able to receive the guidance and clarity you need because your focus is everywhere else but on you. You aren’t able to understand the directions for your own path because you’re too busy walking along a road that isn’t yours or isn't meant for you. All those ideas you once had that are now ghosts, died because you didn’t nourish them. All those days your body could’ve rested were instead filled with “should do, could do, had to do” instead of investing in your spirit given yourself the right to recover or recalibrate. You’re seeing this card because you need a strong reminder that you’re pushing yourself too hard: it's no wonder you feel lost or confused. That’s your body telling you it can’t hold more right now; not until you slow down and give yourself a break.

Somewhere along the way, we’ve convinced ourselves that we’re not allowed to be happy because others are suffering. But here’s a newsflash, someone is always suffering somewhere and that will always be true. You shouldn’t have to stop your joy just because the world is and always has been a dark place. Being joyful when your life is going well doesn’t mean you can’t have compassion for others who are not experiencing the same or that you’re not taking notice of how others have less. You can still do your part, you can still support those who need help AND ALSO revel in life lived well. Beauty doesn’t stop happening on one part of the planet because a hurricane is happening in another. That’s because creation and destruction, light and dark, happiness and sadness can all exist at the same time. So do yourself a favor and stop reducing your joy. You don’t have to flaunt it or be rude about it but you don’t have to pretend it doesn’t exist either.
