Six of Swords + Denial (Healer Guides)
Rune: Raido - travel, destiny, on the right path, movement
Both the rune and the Six of Swords speak to movement taking place. The Six of Swords may be asking you to tap into your creativity as you move away from something in search of something new. Take only what you need with you and be on your way. This may signify leaving the past behind or minimizing while releasing what no longer serves you. This movement forward requires acceptance and letting go of what you cannot control. Acceptance asks you to take a look at what you’re denying. Be honest with yourself so that you can properly heal as you move forward rather than slinking into denial and unintentionally carrying all of your baggage with you. It’s time to be completely open and honest with yourself. Make it part of your self-love and self-care practice.
Page of Wands (R) + Success (Nature Spirits)
Rune: Kenaz - creativity, calling, clarity, knowledge
The Page of Wands Reversed reflects an uncertain start rather than one built on confidence. Here, I’m looking at the colors Yellow (Solar Plexus: courage, confidence, trusting gut feelings, gut health), Pink (Heart Chakra: self-love, self-care, unconditional love), and Blue (Throat Chakra: honesty, communication, affirmations, frequent thoughts), which also reflects the strong pinks, yellows, and blues featured in the Success card. Your problems or distance from success might be due to your lack of consistency, willingness to initiate, inferiority complex, or the way you make excuses for yourself. For a while, you might have been too exhausted to make some of the necessary steps toward your goals, which is understandable. However, after a while, there comes a time where we are just making excuses for ourselves to avoid taking action. You have everything you need to make your next steps. You need to stand on your business and lean into your confidence. Commit. Don’t rush into anything without really assessing the situation. Whatever you’re wishing for requires your action.
9 of Cups (R) + Disruption (Helper Guides)
Rune: Hagalaz - disruption, upheaval, catalyst
Some things in your life might have shaken things up for you, but I think reconnecting with a community you trust might be in order. Alternatively, if you’ve been in situations that haven’t panned out the way that you had hoped, allow this to be your permission to accept that things weren’t what you expected and make plans to safely and tactfully move on. Your Helper Guides want you to know that they’ll be along for the ride. Don’t forget to ask them for assistance and guidance as you figure things out or find balance. Your Helper Guides are encouraging you to release all that no longer serves you. That job that you lost, connection that ended, or another loss of the sort might have been what was needed to make way for something that is in better alignment with you and your values. You’re stepping closer to the truth of who you are. This is a journey of absolute honesty.
