→ Weeds
You have some weeds to pull darling. Manifestation is a buzzword we’ve all heard but the problem is that there’s a lot of shit that gets in the way of manifestation being possible. You may have tried manifesting more money instead of understanding you’re poor because you have poor spending habits. You may have tried to manifest a loving partner instead of addressing the fact that you don’t believe you deserve love. So even if you did manage to manifest these things, you’d probably lose them because you don’t know how to hold them in your spirit. Or you just don’t have space because your weeds aka traumas and experiences are taking up all of the room. You have to pull the weeds first before you can plant a healthy garden. Otherwise whatever you grow will quickly be overtaken by things that are stronger and grow faster. That doesn’t mean you can’t have what you desire. It just means you have some work to do first.

→ Corn Dollies
I’m just going to cut to the chase and skip the lore associated with this card. Essentially, this card means there’s someone in your life that needs your attention. You haven’t been showing up for them the way you should be doing and frankly, that’s growing tiresome for them. You have to be there for the people you care about. You’re going to lose this person if you don’t start making more of an effort. Now I understand that most of the cards this month have encouraged you to set boundaries and rest but remember connection is a form of self-care too. We all need a community. We all need someone who can support us in our time of need but that means we have to support them too. Don’t take your people for granted. Call them, send a text or an email. Tell them you love them, give them a hug, do whatever you need to to show that you’re here and you care.

→ Fruit Trees
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.

→ Garland
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.

→Fruit Jam
When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade but don’t stop there. You can make candied lemon, lemon marmalade, lemon curd and so on. This card was inspired by the process of preserving fruit by turning it into jam. Fruit left on its own will spoil quickly, especially in the summer’s heat. Our ancestors could cry over a short lifespan or be resourceful and turn one thing into another that could last longer. You don’t need anything right now. You don’t need more resources or time or experience either because you need to learn to be content with what you have or because what you have is more than you’re willing to admit. I always say, having more clothes doesn’t make you stylish. Some of the most elegant dressers create outfits with 30 pieces and that’s it. Chasing resources is an excuse; an easy way to avoid actually doing the thing you want to do. Stop looking for something to need and start using what’s available– it's more than enough for right now.

→ Corn
Corn represents both the masculine and feminine which means you are being asked to move through the world today being mindful of both your heart and your mind. Be careful not to rely too heavily on logic and the same goes for emotion. One isn’t more valuable than the other and in fact, they are a pair the same way the sun and the moon are a pair or up and down. In the physical sense, this is your reminder that any goal be it big or small needs a healthy dose of practicality and emotional connection. You’ll lose interest in a dream you don’t love and frankly, you need a little bit of fantasy to create something that doesn’t exist. But you also have to understand the bills still have to be paid and the paperwork filed. So you need your mind to show up to this party as well.

→ Summer Games
This is your sign to shake things up. You need a little dose of fear and perhaps a bit of competition to get you out of your comfort zone. Competition can spin out of control, this is true but it can also give you a gentle push. We all need that sometimes otherwise, we would stay complacent and never be forced to rise to the occasion. So if someone is coming for you then let them come. This is your chance to prove to yourself what you’re made of. The trick is to do it for you, not for them. At the end of the day, the only competition that really matters is beating yourself. That means today you do a little bit more than yesterday. As long as you’re growing, then you’re on the right track.
