full moon spread (a bit late)


OK I know its late, but, well, its been a crazy week. Lots of work, emotional stuff and just not having time! So I hope the Gods can forgive me doing a full moon reading a bit late

1.- What can be seen with clarity, so bright that can even blind you.
2.- What gets completed. What closes a cycle.
3.- What begins to fade away, to darken, to abandon you... or what needs to be.
0.- Yourself. Shadow card, from the base of the deck.



1.- What can be seen with clarity, so bright that can even blind you. 3 of Swords SISo, a card about heartache. However, this card has someone preparing to stab themselves in the chest. I think this is suggesting, I make my own heartache, make things hurt me and then keep poking the scar. What can I say? I have a catholic history LOL.
And I know this, so Im trying to change my mindset, offer myself some love and take down some of the blocks from self inflicted ICK. It didnt occur to me till yesterday that sometimes I block the good stuff from me. And when I started to let it go, let the ick fade away because I was surrounded by such love, light and healing.. well. Puts it all into perspective. Just gotta keep that perspective

2.- What gets completed. What closes a cycle.6 of Cups SI
I think this is linked.. its about not constantly giving of myself, and learning to accept gracefully the gifts that I am offered. Because that is what will make me strong and healed.
Not receive to panic that Im not worthy, not good enough or that I am should give in return. Recieving the blessings given to me with love.

3.- What begins to fade away, to darken, to abandon you... or what needs to be. 8 of swords SI
I think this can be read in two ways. The Figure isnt obviously bound like the usual RWS figure, so they could be creating their worries and pain into defences, barriers, better the pain you know than another...
OR it could be that feeling of being protected, and yet in that finding strength.
I guess it could depend on the swords. I could be transforming my perspective (swordy stuff) from painful barriers to hide behind and crucify myself with, or I could use a barrier to stop the negativity getting to me, so I'm strong behind my defences.

Or maybe its just hiding behind something, and I need to just STOP doing that. Why hide when you have nothing to hide from? Just be bold and filled with love?

0.- Yourself. Shadow card, from the base of the deck. Lovers SI
Oooh I think this is what the Lovers is hinting to. The Heart and YinYang are the WHOLE of the card, that Love, positivity, balance, Divine and romantic love are what should be my main concern and nothing else. The rest will just fit in, without my worrying about it. Let love guide your way and it will appear in your life.

VERY fluffy, but I need some positivity :)

ETA I ended up deciding that to make sure I got some universal love flowing and set myself up a wee crystal grid flowing with Reiki to myself for some love and healing. And it worked.

So did watching Dr Who with people I love and love me :D
