Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: The Mystical Dream Tarot Deck, by Janet Piedilato, illustrations by Tom Duxbury and Janet Piedilato, and published by Red Wheel/Weiser LLC.

Card: Dreamer of Pentacles (similar to the Page in traditional decks)

The week ahead is likely to offer up lessons in patience, as well as the rewards of perseverance. There may also be a concerted focus on staying the course, consistency, and remaining loyal in the face of adversity. Another factor is recognizing that the knowledge held within oneself can often provide the answers being sought.

Contrarily, the potential for feeling stuck, trapped, or lacking motivation is liable to be prevalent and thus prevent or hinder forward momentum. Getting trapped in one’s own head could also be an issue. Breaking the cycle by switching up routines and practices is likely to be key for ensuring progress.
