September Tarot Reading

I am proud of how far I’ve come.

This is the month where we stop waiting around for change to happen. This month we take hold of the reigns and we create the change we’ve been wanting to create for awhile now. We stop day dreaming about what we’d like to do and create, we get out of our comfort zone, and we create a path. 

This can mean different things for everyone. Perhaps you finally start that new business, you decide to get started on your home renovation, you finally start learning that instrument you bought a year ago, you join a new group or create your own, or you decide to put all of your efforts into finishing an old project. 

Something about this month’s energy is giving you all the power you need to buckle down and make shit happen. You can finally let go of any emotional blocks that have been stopping you. You’re ready for change and all the challenges that may come with it. 

There’s a sense of leadership and paving a new way for people. You’re encouraged to be the first one to do things in a different way. Something you’re involved with can certainly have to do with groups, community, or humanitarianism. There’s also a sense of perfectionism and some competition this month. We may find ourselves being very precise or methodical about a task we’re doing. 

There’s another theme here all about getting in touch with your childlike wonder. Doing something just for fun, not being afraid to stand out from the crowd, playing games, and using your imagination to create stories and worlds. Overall, just getting very creative.

We’re getting the soothing influence of lavender in this reading. Do your best to keep a calm and cool head this month. Even when your emotions are stirred on the inside, this doesn’t mean you need to show it on the outside, as that’s not always the wisest decision. 

Grounding can be very helpful for us. Connect with the earth, crystals, and plants. Clearing out clutter physically and metaphorically can also be a tool for our happiness at this time. Release the old stuff you no longer need. Feeling that our space is clean and cleared out helps us manifest the magic of the next season of our life. 

This is one of those moments when we need to clear the slate so that we can have that lovely fresh feeling about life again. 

Candle magick is being highlighted this September and I love this so much because it’s already such a good time of year to bring out your candles. As the nights slowly grows longer, the weather gets cooler, and an element of mystery returns, a candle is just the thing to accompany us on our journey. 

This is also about setting your intentions. Speak out loud to the room, your ancestors, the spirits, the universe. Declare your intentions, wishes, and thoughts. Saying things out loud helps them to actually manifest. 

Also, speak about this moment. What are you creating right now? What are you grateful for? A candle can hold that energy and send it out further into space. 

There is an importance this month on protecting your own energy and aura. Try your best to be aware when someone else’s energy is messing with your own natural vibe. When and if this happens, it’s important to call back your power and take space if needed. 

There may be a shake up in a group dynamic this month. This shake up may result in you wanting to pull your energy or contribution back. There’s also a sense that you could be feeling pressured into doing something you don’t want to do. 

Our advice is to be strong enough to stand our ground, set boundaries and say no if you must. You saying no to someone could very well be the shake up that happens. 

If you have found yourself in the habit of being a people pleaser and feeling like a victim because it’s always about what other people want, then it’s time to change that narrative. Take your power back this time. 

I’m reminded of our overall themes for the month when it comes to leadership. You deciding to go a different way and doing your own thing can very well inspire others to do the same. Don’t be afraid to stand out from the crowd. 

Others may be trying to cause confusion or acting like there’s a misunderstanding in a situation but this doesn’t reflect on you. You seem to know very well what’s going on, what you are standing for and building for your future. Stay sure and steady regardless of what others are doing. 

I want to be so real about the cards coming out for this section of the reading. There is potential this month for money or assets to be lost or stolen, so please be very vigilant. Watch your surroundings, lock your doors, and double check where you’re spending your money so you don’t get scammed. There’s a feeling that something is taken away from you and it’s just not fair. 

Also, be careful of who you trust and who you lend a hand to because they may try to take advantage of you. It’s as if you help someone and then they don’t know how to stop asking for more. Don’t settle for less than you deserve and do not put your security (financial or physical) at risk. 

Remember that pretty much anything taken away can eventually be regained over time. Don’t let any losses make you want to give up. Fight for what you deserve. 

On the flip side, you may have to temporarily sacrifice something for long-term personal development. This could mean cutting back expenses in one area in order to save for something important or more meaningful. Getting serious about your dreams and ambitions could mean it’s time to be more strict with yourself. 

There may be some kind of decision you need to make that you feel stuck on. You’re not sure if you should do something this way or that way. The surprising part is, there may be a mother figure in your life who somehow answers your question without even trying to. 

They just happen to say something very specific that makes the next steps you need to take quite clear. This could even be a quote you hear in a movie or a song. It may perfectly relate to your situation and feel like a sign from the universe. 

When working on creative projects this month, seek out inspiration. Who or what sets your imagination ablaze with possibility? This inspiration may seek you out naturally. When you come across it, study it as well as you can and then go deeper.

What is it exactly about this muse that activates your imagination and feelings? What feelings are those exactly? What emotions are you wanting to convey and why? 

Instead of just creating something that looks good, think about what the meaning behind it truly is. If making a product or experience, what emotion are you trying to ultimately sell? Figuring all of this out will help you make something of value and connect with your audience on a psychological level.
