SURPRISE!! There's a party happening over at https://www.facebook.com/groups/alisonspokes. I'd love for you to crash it! Once you find the missing cards and make your pick, come back to this post and comment "FOUND." Join the party, and you may win a prize.

1. SIX OF WANDS All hail the conquering hero! Expect a victory or a public acknowledgement of your talents or achievements. Whatever your endeavor, you can expect a successful outcome this week. Enjoy your time in the spotlight and do not be afraid to toot your own horn a little. You deserve recognition. Happiness is found by taking pride in your achievements. 2. TEN OF SWORDS If you're going to overdose on soda pop and ice cream, you're going to feel a belly ache and brain ...freeze and you cannot blame anyone but yourself for that. The good news is... after a good rest and time out, the sun will rise and bring with it a new day! It can't get any worse... as long as you stop tormenting yourself. Pull out those prickly swords and look back on what you've learned so you can get back up, dust yourself off and start to heal. Happiness is found by accepting finality. 3. SIX OF SWORDS Those who fight and run away live to fight another day. This card symbolizes leaving behind difficult or troubling times. This may require physically moving away from unhappy spaces or people, or beginning a recovery from some sort of ailment. No one succeeds in isolation, so put your pride aside and ask for help when you need it. There is no need to set arbitrary deadlines with regard to your recovery either, nor should you feel bound to restrictions or limitations set by others (this is not permission to ignore or disregard medical advice. Follow professional medical advice, if applicable.) You are free to set your own pace, as long as you are moving forward. Clinging to or dwelling on a set point in time is not helpful. You cannot reverse past events, but you can progress and move forward. Happiness is found by accepting a setback and recharging for future opportunities. Deck used: Happy Tarot

Happy March! ...and a happy message! Pick a card...

1. TIME FOR A NAP Step back. Take a break. Relax. Everything can be put on hold until you rest for a bit. A busy mind can get in the way of productivity. Better to do nothing and rejuvenate than burn out accomplishing little. It's in your best interest to step into a state of non-action for the time being. You can let inspiration and ideas flow while saving the action and engagement for later. 2. BUILDING BLOCKS Your efforts, relationships, beliefs, values and personal ethic...s are setting the foundations for your future. If you are on solid ground in these areas, your beautiful design is showing amazing potential! Keep going! If anything feels shaky or cracked, best pay it some attention now before your building anything more on top. 3. TICK-TOCK Time is not your primary concern. Not having enough time is a myth. You have all the time you need to create the life you desire. Stop trying to control the agenda to conform to a particular schedule. If it is important enough, you have it within you to make it happen within divine timeliness. Follow your bliss, enjoy the process and do not concern yourself with when or how things will manifest. Trust that they will when they're meant to. Deck Used: Wisdom of the Oracle

A message for the week from one of my favourite oracles. Pick a card...

1. THE MESSENGER Be weary of the Messenger in your life. Someone who uses gossip to stir up mischief. This person loves to talk about what other people think or say, but doesn't necessary tell you everything. Be certain that you verify what you hear before you assume it to be true. The truth can be misrepresented. Take it with a grain of salt rather than personally. A big reaction is the Messenger's reward. 2. THE JOY OF THE FUTURE The future is coming and there isn't anythin...g that anyone can do about it. You can consume a lot of fearful energy worrying about all that could go wrong. You could use the same amount of energy dreaming about what could go right! Which one do you think is better spent? If you can control the outcome, then you don't need to worry, you just need to take action to secure the most favourable result. If you cannot control the outcome, then the most you can do is prepare for it. If you do not even know what to prepare for, then concentrate on the present so you won't have the time to worry about the future. Sometimes just being positive is enough to influence the outcome. 3. THE LADY OF THE LEPRECHAUNS Be careful what you wish for. Emotionally we may know why our heart desires something, but subconsciously we may want it for all the wrong reasons. The Lady of the Leprechauns has clear sight and foreknowledge of what is to come, and what most of us wouldn't give to have that kind of certainty! But Faeries, especially leprechauns can be tricky folk. Faeries always tell the truth, but that doesn't stop them from leaving out important details or expressing themselves in ambiguous ways. Sometimes it's in our best interest to politely decline their gifts and offerings. All that glitters is not necessarily gold. : 1. ? 2. , ? 1 2. ' . . Deck used: The Heart of Faerie Tarot
