With spring in full swing, I turned to my tarot deck for a five-card spread to brighten the month ahead. This May, take care of your emotional needs and commit to happiness.
Your Tarot Reading for May 2024
Your Power: Queen of Cups
The Queen of Cups is a compassionate, intuitive card. Pay close attention to your emotional state. When life gets crazy, taking care of yourself can be overlooked.
This card reminds you to take care of your health. Prioritize your peace before things fall apart. There is a reason for how you feel. Dig deeper into your self-care practices.
Your case: Sun
It's time to take responsibility for your own happiness. The sun tells you that happiness doesn’t just happen to you; It’s the experience you create through your actions and intentions. Take advantage of all the avenues you have for artistry, self-expression, and joy. Don’t overthink it – everyone is creative in their own way.
If you're out of ideas, try it out until you find something you like. Create your own sunshine.
Your Obstacle: Knight of Wands
When the Knight of Wands gets in the way, it's a sign that you may be trying to do what's best for you. This card asks you to avoid being overly competitive, defensive, or insecure.
Stir up the fire of inspiration, but keep a tight rein on your time and energy. Keep your ego in check.
Your Action: Lover
Commit to your health, even (and especially) when it’s hard. How can you take better care of yourself? What steps do you need to take to achieve your goals?
If the sun reveals what makes you happy, then follow your joy. Don't let distractions get to you.
Your Course: Page of Cups
You're learning new ways to heal, express yourself, and create your own fun. It was a time of experimentation, big dreams, and idealism. Have enough confidence in yourself and the world to try, and enough humility and awareness to learn.
You also gain a clearer understanding of yourself and others. Understand people's sensitivities and needs. Consider whether your actions are sustainable. Allow yourself to let these discoveries change your perspective.
How to Use the May 2024 Tarot Course
This is a good month to check in with your emotional and mental health. I don’t mean religion, but your sense of purpose, your intuition, and your connection to loved ones and nature. Cultivate these elements in your life – If you’re not sure how to do this, make a list of activities that interest you and start there.
Attending a class or workshop on an interesting topic is a great way to practice something and meet like-minded people. You can also explore through books and self-study.
Whatever you do to take care of your mind, body, and spirit, do it with joy. Be confident in your abilities and be open to growth.
