I used the Wild Unknown deck as I find the dark moodiness of it quite appropriate at the moment!
And wow today was poignant.
We got the 5 of cups, affectionately known by me as the "emo" card. The 5 of cups is down in the dumps and struggles to see the goodness in anything. In the Rider-Waite deck, he is a cloaked figure who can't see that on the horizon his castle and happiness are waiting for him.
The four of Wands is all about hard work and plans coming together and rejoicing. You have a firm foundation to achieve your dreams.
The father of Wands is crackling with energy - he is a call to action. What is calling your soul right now? What it stirring in your heart and body that you know you must do?
These cards clearly say to me that this isolation and pluto retrograde combined are a huge opportunity. If we use this time productively to really delve deep into our shadow and our uncomfortable feelings we will have a strong base from which to spring forward and achieve more than we ever thought possible.
In this context I think the four of Wands is a "bridge" card between the two energies.
Don't wallow in despair but also don't shy away from the dark, ask questions, be curious - why do I react the way I do? What is really happening when I'm triggered? Why do I believe that limiting belief? What does this remind me of from my past? When have I felt like this before? Is what I believe about myself true?
Send loving feelings to that aspect of yourself and as much forgiveness as you can.
If we use this time to be brave and look in the mirror and get acquainted with our innermost selves we will be unstoppable when the time comes.
Then think, how can I move forward? What fills me with hope? What do I want my life to look like? What is my dream? How have I been holding myself back by not addressing my shadow?
