TAROT TODAY
When I asked the cards, “What does the Collective need to know?"—my usual prompt for the Tarot Today readings—I had no thought in my head about romance at all. Yet the Universe is always in tune with the energy of the planet, so I bow to its timeliness.
While the initial outlook for love is rather gloomy according to this spread, the potential for a happy ending is still possible. (In the romance fiction genre, this is called a “Happy for Now” ending.)
Since this is real life, not fiction, it’s appropriate to approach the reading with this caveat and wise advice: You are always in charge of your outcome.
Let’s see how the upcoming V-day might play out for you by reading the cards from left to right as past, present, and future energies.
Attachment. Being in the left position and representing energy you are bringing into the situation, this card indicates there’s an old behavior or pattern that needs to be let go. It could be an unrealistic mental image of what the perfect partner or relationship would look like or a too-rigid definition of what a lover would bring to your life. Or, it could mean it’s time to ditch that old “lucky” shirt or talisman that you thought would bring about the magic you seek and try a new approach. This card is urging you to break loose of whatever is holding you back and try something new.
Storm Warning. In the center (present) position, this card is good news. It means you have time to prepare for a possible storm ahead. Although you have little control over the development of an actual physical storm or someone else’s behavior, you always have providence over yourself. This card suggests that you prepare yourself by being the best version of you…by becoming the kind of person you’d love to be with. Being grounded and secure in yourself is the best preparation for any potential personal or relationship storm. And remember, sometimes a storm serves to blow away energy that no longer serves you…so it may be that it’s exactly what you need to open the…
Door to Romance. When this card appears, it suggests that new beginnings in love are possible—whether in the form of a new relationship or more love in a present one. Being in the right (third) position of the spread indicates that there’s very strong potential for receiving or reviving the love you desire. As with all future-position cards, the result you receive is largely dependent on the action you take in the present. What you desire already exists in energetic potential. To bring it into form, begin with self-love and the Universe will reflect that love back to you from another.
I’ve added a rose quartz heart and the Chakra 4 candle to expand all joyful possibilities for your highest and best good. I hope this reading supports you.
Until next time… My best, Shelley
