You have plenty with the 10 of Cups

*This post contains an ad link.*

 Here is seriously one of the most positive, shiny, happy cards in any tarot deck.

This is where happily ever after is. 

 The 10 in any suit is going to be about completion and the end of a cycle, we're coming back to one numerically.

When it comes to the cups, you're dealing with emotions, dreams, and wishes, & in this case they are happy ones.

 The traditional image on the 10 of cups depicts a couple standing together and children dancing around happily. The cups are displayed across the sky in a radiant rainbow, with a house in the distance across a peaceful pastoral landscape. As an animal lover, I'm very partial to Siolo Thompson's interpretation of this card, and these pink lovebirds say everything about the points above. 

The 10 of cups is the fairy tale bliss. Marriage, holidays, joy, rewards, abundance, it's all here.

 Even the reversal of this card isn't all bad.

If this card shows upside down, it can mean that looks are deceiving. 

Think "social media" happy. Don't believe the glossy surface. There's something that needs to be handled that isn't so shiny and happy and may be out of whack with your personal beliefs. 

But once this issue is dealt with, or a certain area of life has the attention and realignment it deserves, then the full happiness of the upright meaning is just within reach.

You can email me to book a reading or crystal consult for yourself.

If you're a reader or tarot collector and love this gorgeous interpretation by Siolo Thompson as much as I do, 

you can order the Linestrider Tarot deck and see the rest of the beautiful deck. 

 The stones shown with the card are all heart chakra stones. 

For the most part, any stone that resonates with you for a meditation on joy, harmony, and love, is perfect for this card.

Rose Quartz

Rhodolite

Rhodochrosite

Rhodonite 

(Especially for reversal of this card, as rhodonite is thought to assist in bringing awareness of one's oversights or missteps without negative judgemental attitudes and instead gentle correction to alignment to one's purpose.)

Queen of Wands; Linestrider Tarot

A great card of the day for building confidence, focus, and motivation, because the Queen of Wands is, well, the queen of getting stuff done! 🔥

She's the mistress of the fire element, of wills, vibrancy, creativity, and lives strongly in her center. 

She knows what she wants and what she needs to to do to get it, and how to motivate others with her warmth and vitality. 

In her most positive aspects, she is incredibly generous, compassionate, sunny, and loyal.

That being said, I do like the illustration on this particular deck (Linestrider by Siolo Thompson) because the

queen is surrounded by a sort of whispy, dark cloud.

This queen may be the energetic go-getter, but she's also shrouded in some mystery, and likes to wield a bit of magic. The traditional black cat is included here next to her baton and not just at her feet. 

Both of their eyes let you know she can show some claws, so you should probably just stay on her good side.

She's sort of the original #GirlBoss ...

When a reversal shows up, it can indicate a misuse of the queen's gregarious nature; 

manipulations and domineering actions aren't unheard of for this archetype. 

Some helpful focus stones or crystals when meditating on the this card:

Citrine ~ Self-Confidence, Balances Manipura 

Sunstone ~ Power, Vitality

Carnelian ~ Creativity

Rose Quartz ~ Compassion, Self-Esteem

Labradorite ~ Intuition, Synchronicity 

Well, that's the Queen of Wands from the Linestrider deck.

What does she say to you?

Page of Pentacles; Linestrider Deck

Well, hello sexy lady!
It seems totally fitting that I pulled this card today for several reasons.

Like all pages, this card brings new inspirations, beginnings, or tidings of new things to come, but this one will probably bear some juicy fruit. Earth energy, pentacles, coins, whatever you want to call it, it's about manifesting it into the physical realm. 

If you're sitting on a dream, it could be time to make that shiz happen. 

 Think about how you can sharpen the skills you have, or need learn, to build a new business, hobby,  or all out new venture.
Deck used in today's pull was The Linestrider Tarot by Siolo Thompson.
Some stones for this kind of meditation are pictured & labeled on the image.

 Both citrine & green aventurine are great stones for manifesting, attracting luck, and meditating on growth. 

Pyrite is also another crystal that is associated with prosperity, but it has the added benefit of grounding and protective energies.

Labradorite is associated with many things, but in this line up, it's here to help bring about synchronicity and that extra boost to manifest a dream into reality.

 On the next note, hello and welcome to the Grey Lady Oracle blog!

This is my newest outlet for all of the weird and esoteric specialness that I love so much.

Whether it's the Jungian archetypes and deep collective consciousness/inner knowing of the cards, or how certain crystals and minerals can help us focus on meditative states and intentions to achieve a particular mental and spiritual focus, I've studied and been fascinated by the "woo woo" and the wonders of real neuroplasticity for decades.

I've been posting on Instagram for a bit, but sometimes writing those captions on a teensy phone can be irksome. So, here I am. 

Swing by the Instagram to see posts of the cards, and then swing by here for a more detailed description.

 I'll figure this blog thing out eventually...
