MESSAGE

Let’s see what cards I flip. Immediately when I touched my deck I saw XIX THE SUN in my head so I’m going to go with that.

I’m focusing on the image of XIX THE SUN in my head and I’m drawn to the baby on the card. The Fool in a sense. The innocence required to initiate a project. I definitely needed that innocence when I began my practice because it gave me the energy to go out into the world…and then Higher Mind made my curriculum more difficult and brought me to experiences in which I needed to develop healthy boundaries.

So! This week! I’d say this is a supportive week to begin new projects. To not have our mind broadcast too far into the future where we then catastrophize and think of XYZ hardship or the like. I’d say get a pen and paper ready to record any ideas that pop into your Mind Tool!

If you’re looking to launch something then I’d also say this is a good week to do so.

I’d also say this is a good time to reflect on Procrastination and Perfectionism. Are you putting off beginning a new project? Do you need every fine detail structured before you launch something?

We learn the most when we just do something! I would not have learned everything that I did regarding my practice and PSYCHISM if I did not just start. I had no plan. I just learned as I went. Direct Experience…Experiential Learning. It is the end of August 2025 already so what would’ve happened if you just began XYZ 5 months ago when Spring began? Let’s not beat ourselves up, but maybe be honest with ourselves and view the Wheel of Time spinning.

This project doesn’t have to be a business. It can be a personal thing such as beginning a new health-promoting-lifestyle or start a savings plan or begin learning a new skill or refining a skill.

There’s just a supportive air around us that is encouraging us to start start start! And also examine the ways we Procrastinate, how much we Procrastinate, and why we Procrastinate. I’m not saying we need to GO GO GO since there are times when we are in more of a “receiving phase” so we want to be honest, direct, and exercise discernment.

IX PENTACLES

Ooh! I like this one especially as it coincides with the above writing.

Self-Sufficiency…Independence.

This card can mean a lot of things, just like with any card, but I want to focus more on the FEELING of when we are comforted by our own self-driven aspects of our lives.

I think this week there’s an air also for us to examine if we feel confident in how our abilities to acquire resources, sustain our resources, and navigate this world independently.

I’d definitely say that the sun’s energy is shining light to give us ideas of how to be more self-supportive. We may even find ourselves in a bit of a challenge where we look around our lives and examine ways we are too co-dependent.

Hm. Seriously, if you’re looking to initiate a project or launch a project then this is the week to do so!

X PENTACLES

Hot damn! I know that we all have varying financial situations, but overall…this week is very good for money, resources, and the material world.

We have a potential to be struck by ideas on how to acquire more resources and then share them with our loved ones. I’d say that the Initiatory Energy leads us to begin this project and this project will provide us with more material resources.

Anyone want to adopt a new puppy? Go for it!

QUEEN OF SWORDS REVERSED

Ah. The Queen of Swords. She does not like falsities, lies, and nonsense. She wants to communicate directly. She makes me feel like we have that sword of truth in our hand and we want direct communication. Especially with finances! It could be a week of having difficult conversations that eventually lead to clarity and a plan to become more financial healthy and prosperous. It may sting initially, but it will help us in the long run if we just see what we are dealing with, what the other people involved in our financial health are doing, and then initiating the plan!

That’s it!

Have a lovely week!

Sincerely,

Jake
