Miss Tarot is back for her Spring visit
Watch this 
View More Posts Ignore
It seems like she comes around every Spring,
I don't know how long she'll be sticking around,
so I ask:

"how do I best deal with the anxiety of the coming few months in particular, and the coming year in general, given all the changes I have so little control over?"


Your upcoming changes are throwing you into a bit of internal upheaval, especially since you know you'll be evaluated anew, and competing with others for security. It'll be too easy to feel anxiety and stress over it all. Maybe even frustration that you can't control the situation the way you'd really like to. Your creative sparks may be burning low while your way through thorny obstacles

but get this, take the path of least resistance this one time, don't be so hard on yourself.

Besdies your work experience and your reputation, you know, dry spells dont last, and you know you're going to emerge from this difficulty with renewed energy and creativity.

"A change is as good as a holiday."

Let your friends support you, and move forward deliberately and with confidence.

" Miss Tarot,
I need some insight.

A fresh, budding romance or a rekindled one with a woman whom I love sooo deeply but had a hurricane of an ending during the holidays? "

" I want a reading too!
The question: Can I finally see what I have on the plate in front of me and stop looking for problems?
Ups, it's a yes or no...ok...WHEN I can finally appreciate what I have? Getting impatient with me... "

" pollofrito

the coming year will have more conflcit, but far more peace
conflict is not a bad thing, it can sharpen trhe senses
clarify what is worth fighting for
but if you want a peaceful heart than you cant let it degrade into destructiveness

the best sort of conflict is when mutual understanding is the end result
its the calm you bring into a chaoticx world
its being able to negotiate change

keep working for peace
think about the areas of your life you have already created harmony
and keep building on those
keep in your awareness that peace doesnt last forever
but then, neither does conflict

you're going to be feeling better and better as the year progresses "

" sopain,

its the Year of the Hero for you
here's the thing,
the flow and change in life is going to take you to some strange places
but no matter how calm or how turbulent you're going to be able to navigate the waters ahead
you're going to feel filled with purposeful action
you'll feel connected to the universe
and you'll respect rather than fear the unknown
you'll be brave
have the company of friends, a pet too maybe
and oops, even a little ecstasy (what???)
(heh)

you are wide open for new experiences
you challenge yourself to break through your fears
you wont mind asking for help once in awhile
and you're becoming a source of comfort and inspiration for people who are facing some of the same fears you are conquering right now

(wow)

you go sopain! "
