Good evening, Lovely Souls! I hope this finds you winding down after a wonderful day! Here are the cards from todays Monday Magic!
​They come to us from Colette Baron-Reid’s “Wisdom of the Oracle” Divination Cards.

Lots of powerful messages in this week’s cards. I hope they bring you guidance and insight for the week to come as we prepare for lots of big energy to move through with the arrival of a Full Blood Moon and lunar eclipse. Self-care is key, so be sure to pay focused attention to what your body, mind, heart, and spirit are asking for. Rest, hydration, nourishment, and grounding are key to making it through the week with as few unruffled features as possible. So, take care of your precious selves and I’ll see you all next week! 💖💖💖

1)  OBSERVER (49) 

ESSENTIAL MEANINGS:
Perspective; objectivity; neutral observation from a distance.

THE ORACLE'S MESSAGE
Most people see the world through a personal lens. They closely identify with their feelings and experiences - so much so that they come to believe that these are the only reality. There are times when you need distance in order to gain perspective and understand your circumstances from a more neutral vantage point. Now is one of those times in your life. This is a perfect moment for you to begin to do some exploring. Instead of only considering yourself, consider what you need to understand about the conditions, people, culture, and environment you're engaged with now. You'll be so happy you did. Illumination is the miracle you seek and will indeed find.

RELATIONSHIP MESSAGE
Sometimes you just can't see the forest for the trees in your way. Feelings can get all jumbled up, and often you hear one thing when a person says another. It can be like an echo of an unresolved past experience dubbed over your conversation. Take time out before you react. It's likely the other person has no idea how his or her words have affected you. Take a few steps back and lend understanding to the situation. Have faith in your connection and trust that you can come together. Take to higher ground now and cultivate curiosity about what you observe in yourself, in others, and in the landscape. You will find things much improved sooner than you know.

PROSPERITY MESSAGE
It is an advantageous time for you to get some distance from what you're doing and see your work and your projects from a different perspective. The trick is to connect to the essence of your goals and aspirations while letting the form and timing be dictated by Spirit. You may be too personally attached to an outcome and unable to see the miracle because it's not turning out exactly as you planned. Trust Spirit. The perfect version of your abundance is right in front of you. Remain neutral and curious, and watch the miracle unfold. 

PROTECTION MESSAGE
Ever think sometimes your life options are suction-cupped to your face and you can't see beyond yourself? There's a big world out there - a multitude  of potential realities that you're unable to perceive at present. So you're a little stuck? It's time to get advice from someone you trust, someone who has a better perspective on your circumstances. Other points of view are needed now before you move forward. Take heart! A beautiful vista is waiting for you to drink it in. You just need a little help widening your scope beyond your small "self."

2) NEW LIFE (39) 

ESSENTIAL MEANINGS
Birth of new ideas; growth; opportunities; a breath of fresh air; life renewing itself.

THE ORACLE'S MESSAGE
When spring awakens the world, joy and excitement can be felt all around and in your very core. Blossoms burst from trees overnight, birds return home and sing their glorious song, and nature is full of promise. Miracles beckon all of us. This is one of those times in your life when new ideas inspire you and new opportunities bring you hope for seeing your dreams come true. All is well in your world, and you have the energy you need to feel renewed. Allow your heart to fill with enthusiasm. Let your light shine, for this is a time of good fortune. 

RELATIONSHIP MESSAGE
New energy enters old relationships, and new relationships are bursting with the sweetness and vibrancy only encountered when winter gives way to spring. This is a time to connect with others and share excitement, passion, and hearts full of joy. This card is a very auspicious sign with respect to love and partnerships in all forms. 

PROSPERITY MESSAGE
You have every reason to be optimistic right now, as things seem to fall into place magically. New opportunities remind you that abundance is available to you.. Delight in the bounty that begins to appear in surprising forms. Stay curious and know that your hopes and dreams are being fulfilled. It's as if new life suddenly infuses your projects, work, and creative ideas with a  kind of electricity that crackles with exciting potential. Fortune is smiling on you.

PROTECTION MESSAGE
You must acknowledge your inexperience and gently allow yourself to be like the delicate new bud opening. You are at the beginning of things and haven't yet hit your stride. Be immersed in the newness of it all, and don't try to rush the learning process. New life has it's own timetable for maturity. Be here now. Life loves you.

3) GO THE DISTANCE (47)

ESSENTIAL MEANINGS
Endurance; strength; the long haul

THE ORACLE'S MESSAGE
To bring your dream to life, you must think long-term and pay no attention to the fluctuations in the current of your experience. Joy and disappointment commingle with opportunities, so there is no need to fear the occasional obstacle. Life is not a sprint. This card is a reminder that you have endurance, strength, and fortitude to carry you all the way. Remain true to yourself. Your authenticity alone will keep you in alignment with the energy of miracles. What is yours will never be withheld from you. Remember that!

RELATIONSHIP MESSAGE
You either are in or are calling in a harmonious relationship that can stand the test of time. For better or worse, as you ride the ups and downs - and even strain, break yourself, and are remade in new growth - you are being redeemed by the power of regeneration. Harmony does not mean there will never be a wrong note played but that the relationship is marked by endurance and dedication to overall unity. A new song can be written, an instrument can be tuned, and the symphony of love will play on. Listen with your heart.
Isn't it magnificent?

PROSPERITY MESSAGE
Your most precious dreams are not about instant gratification but enduring prosperity. This is a time to think long-term and engage in continued action. You will experience momentum building as you translate the ebb and flow into slow and steady movement forward. Your efforts, ideas, and hard work now can lead to greater riches that you can imagine. Stoke the fire so that an uninterrupted stream of energy is available to support you in all the phases of manifestation. Be assured that you are in the right place right now.

PROTECTION MESSAGE
Do you feel as if you've been wandering in the desert now for ages and ages and nothing is happening? When you conjure up the image of a desert, you picture parched lips, sunburned skin, and mirages - but there is more to it than that. Amid the hot sands are creatures with resilient spirits, tough skins, and the willingness to burrow deep underground for water so that they may thrive. This is a time of developing survival skills and resilience. You are learning how to conserve your strength, and in this temporary time of austerity, it's wise to be selective about where you expend your energy. Listen to the call of your soul, because it will never lead you astray. This is an important time of letting go of what's not important.
