The Cards

from the Urban Tarot by Robin Scott

6 of cups: in this case, represents pleasure, kindness, fertility, innocence and the kind of energy that can be presented to the world without shame; the kind you fell entirely good about. This also represents nostalgia, and happy memories of the past.

The Empress: This card is the idea of mother in every sense of the word. This character is the ideal of what it means to be feminine: nurturing, loving, compassionate, abundant and merciful. They accept without judgement and represent the symbol of the softer side of authority.

5 of wands: represents the moments where we have been called to shake ourselves out of the complacency of our lives. We are facing competition and strife but in this, we are being called to become better versions of ourselves and to overcome and grow from this experience. To do so, we must fight for our rights.

9 of cups: This card represents the first moment we define what happiness means to us up till the moment it reaches its full expression. This is when it becomes fulfilling and all encompassing. Through all the setbacks and the roller coaster that human emotion can sometimes be, we have recognized the vision that drives us and the happiness that knows no doubts, no reservations and no bounds.

The tower: This card represents sudden drastic change and the idea that things have gone so terribly and horribly wrong in our lives. We are scared, we are angry, overwhelmed and uncertain. Sometimes, it may be easy to believe that we don’t have the strength to move forward and rebuild. But we still have pieces left to work with once the dust settles.

9 of wands: This card represents the strength in adversity we all have deep inside us. It is the devotion we have to power through our tasks, no matter how difficult or time consuming they may be. It is that stubborn little fire that burns on in us, in spite of the dark, cold nights we all experience from time to time.

Queen of swords: this character is a keen observer and possesses a sharp creative intellect. This person’s mind is constantly buzzing with new ideas though these are drawn from the world of emotion and dream. They feel things as deeply as they observe them and with their talents, they distill their views of the world and reflect it back to the rest of us. This person’s art is the mirror in which we see the deeper truth.

This moon cycle will be an interesting one to say the least. There will be plenty of moments where self-expression comes through without shame and happiness will know no bounds. But there will be moments where I’ll have to sit back and be reflective. These moments will come forward the strongest when there will be conflict and sudden change but I have a secret weapon on my side. That is my ability to sit back, observe, and draw my strength from the stubborn little flame of passion that just won’t seem to die, no matter how hard the world tries to snuff it out. I’m working hard to make sure I have things in order as things move ahead, but there are so many things left to do. I know that with a bit of a little faith and a lot of heart, I’ll achieve the things I set out to do.
