Tarot Spread: Good Morning, Gorgeous!

-

 


I have a new tarot spread inspired by Mary J. Blige's song "Good Morning Gorgeous".  This is a three-card spread you can use in your morning tarot or oracle readings.  Let's break it down!


1. What I Want To Hear — This card represents what your soul wants to validate about you today. 

2. What I Need To Hear — This is the truth that grounds you today.

3. How To Strut My Stuff — This card tells you how you can show up confidently and visibly today. It bridges the gap between what you want to hear and what you need to hear with how to act.



The Spread In Action




1. What I Want To Hear — I drew The Fool. I want a total reset. I'm ready for new beginnings and I'm ready to move on. I also want things to come easy to me and for it to be fun. Less hard work, more play please!


2. What I Need To Hear — I drew the Five of Pentacles. The hard stuff needs attention right now. It's time to get my hands dirty. This is not a time for pity parties or "poor me."


3. How To Strut My Stuff — The High Priestess — I have to balance work and play. Maybe focus on the easy tasks first and then move on to the hard stuff. Balance mind, body, and spirit. Stop struggling, get quiet, and listen to your intuition. My strut today isn't about being the loudest person in the room, it's being the person who knows what's going on. 


My Journal Entry:


Today, I really want to skip out on responsibilities and ignore the hard stuff. But there are practical realities I cannot ignore. The only way to handle this is to trust my intuition and stay cool. Now is not the time to run around frantically fixing things. It's a day to sit back, tune into my inner wisdom, and handle business with silent, mysterious confidence. 


In a weird way, this reading is calling me out. I have been wanting to ditch the responsibility of helping with my dad and just lock myself in my bedroom and play The Sims uninterrupted. But things aren't that simple. I need to get a reality check and do the hard things. I know when I can play and when it's time to get my hands dirty. Right now, my mom needs my help more and I need to show up. 


Funny thing is the five of Pentacles. I have been having pity parties and "woe is me" attitude because I am not physically strong. And I have felt worthless to just about everything in this world. As a daughter, as a business owner/tarot reader, as a writer, and as a member of society. I really want to check out of this reality and go live in my games or, better yet, in my dreams.


The High Priestess reminds me that I do know I am not worthless or useless. That I do stand in my truth and authenticity. I need to stop doubting myself and my self worth. I bring a lot to the table. How dare of anyone to try to make me feel small, especially myself! I'm able to manage my parents finances, make my parents a good cup of coffee, take care of me, take care of our cats, help my dad get around. Just because I can't physically lift my dad up when he falls or able to change his catheter bag, doesn't mean I am useless or a child. I know I am doing my best considering the circumstances. The High Priestess is all about maintaining the "spirit" of the home, not so much physical and manual labor.

  Hey hey my people! I have a spread for you today since we are nearing the final stages of Mercury Retrograde! I thought the collective could use another Mercury Retrograde Shadow Work tarot spread. Has something been drudge up through this retrograde? Perhaps an ex resurfaced, there's been communication snafus, or travel plans gone awry. Perhaps some past trauma, which you thought you had healed, now demands your attention? This spread will help you find the root cause, and hopefully you will feel lighter, or at least, your tarot deck will entertain you by doing this spread. Without further ado, here is the tarot spread! For transparency purposes, ChatGPT helped me develop this spread. I created the graphic using Canva. I have no intention on ripping anyone off. If I have ripped off your spread with ChatGPT, please let me know at samstarotbiz@gmail.com   and I'll take this post down! 1. The Surface: What is Mercury Retrograde bringing up to the surface? This card tells you ...

  Over my 22+ years of reading and studying the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot — through personal readings and those I’ve done for others — I’ve noticed a pattern. There are certain cards that show up when someone is settling, whether it’s in a job or a relationship. So today, I want to take a closer look at the cards that, in my experience, carry that 'settling' energy. This is my personal list, but I’d love to hear from you, too. What cards say 'you’re settling, babe' in your readings? Let’s open up the conversation — share your thoughts in the comments!

The Queen of Swords Isn't a B*tch! A Post About the Queen of Sword's "Nasty" Reputation

  Introduction Most beginning tarot readers (and some “professionals") see the Queen of Swords as a cold-hearted, bitchy woman.  As a professional tarot reader of 18 years and studying the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot for the last 22+ years, I can assure you she is NOT a bitch. Stick around, because hot tarot tea is coming in! I will die on this hill that the Queen of Swords is not a bitch. She is one of the tarot cards that is misunderstood. In this day of age, I see more young people (especially young adult women) adapting the Queen of Swords persona (and that’s wonderful!). She is “F*ck the patriarchy” but abides by the law. She champions those wronged, unfairly treated, or unable to speak for themselves. She is selective with who she shares her empathy with. Yes, she is empathetic.  She uses logic to determine who deserves her empathy. She doesn’t give into every sob story. She knows not everyone with a sob story is telling the truth. She is discerning and can spot a charl...
