This is an apt card for those in the Northern hemisphere as we move this week from Spring into Summer.

We are asked to tend to the seeds we planted almost 6 months ago in terms of direction, thoughts, ideas and energy that are now beginning to bloom. As the seed changes to the flower its needs and care changes.

Notice the shift and act accordingly. See how nature is changing around you – be present. See the plant, bird and insect life all around you.

Some may be looking after a garden, allotment, community space or even a plant of a window sill. Think of how you feed them, water them and pay attention to any issues that you can solve.

Now turn that attention inwards. Realise that your own energy, ideas and gifts also require a bit of care and tlc from time to time. Be open to doing just that so they don’t wither and die.

I also see this card as clarity.

When you are prepared to take responsibility of your actions, beliefs, thoughts and more you begin to have a deeper understanding of what makes you tick.

This is turn allows you to really start looking at yourself and your life to see what fits and what doesn’t. It may require you to take a huge step back and start to see what lies on the fringes of your observation.

Looking at things from completely different perspectives can shakes it up and give visibility of what was escaping you. Such as a simple solution to something that has been gnawing away at you for months. Shifting the perspective can shift the situation on its head.

With understanding comes acceptance and knowledge.

This card is also showing me that we require to give our understanding to others this week. To appreciate people have things going on in their lives that we are not privy to. It can cause them to be snappy, defensive and more. Cut those around you some slack and realise they are doing their best. Try your hardest not to jump into judgement of a situation that has nothing to do with you and you have no direct knowledge of.

Be a support to them instead where you can.

Excellent advice at any time. But you may find over the weekend that pausing before action is no bad thing.

Go beneath the surface of what is being presented and if it seems to good to be true , it may well be.

Do some due diligence and ask yourself does it feel right. If it doesn’t then take more time or say no thank you. Trust your gut.

Jumping into anything this week feet first before looking may not be the best of ideas. Just saying. You don’t have to be pushed into anything by anyone.

No is a complete sentence that does not require justification or explanation.

I do like this card as I’m picking up a couple of things with it.

The first is thats it may be a good time to go a bit deeper into your energy, feelings or emotions to see what makes you, you. To give yourself permission to put yourself first.

For some you may be coming out the other side of things and need a bit time and space to integrate it all. Rest and recuperation may the order of the week.

Also seeing this linked to shadow – which I don’t see as an issue. For me this is the most important work you can do for yourself. It can be an aspect of yourself you haven’t met before – and this introduction may be the first step on where you go next.

Still waters run deep and all that.
