For the last decade I have pulled my tarot cards for the new year ahead. Every January 1st of each new year, I dedicate most of the day to sit in ritual and pull tarot, oracle and astrology cards for each month of the new year. The results of these readings are extremely accurate and actually scarily so, for majority of the events that I have predicted almost a year in advance have completely materialized in extreme detail.
Every year I offer Year Ahead Readings and 6 Month Ahead Readings in the summer. Once a new month begins, I share my monthly outcome from the tarot cards I pulled back on Jan 1st. I also encourage my clients to share with me their year ahead experiences via DM on Instagram or by sending me an email. Sometimes you just have to share how magical and accurate the predictions for tarot can be.
I am going to share with you the cards I pulled on January 1st for May 2024. We will start with my initial prediction and the outcome of events that transpired. If you are interested in a 6 Month Ahead Reading, they are currently available to book and close on July 1st. Click on the link below if you are interested.
May 2024 Cards: The Two of Cups - Reversed and Broke is the Beginning.
Refection from January 1st:
I pulled Broke is the Beginning this time last year and I had to get a new car after a hit and run accident. This time it will be more emotional and I feel there can be a big disconnect with myself if I continue down a path that is no longer in alignment for me. I could feel spiritually exhausted? I may need to bring back some balance in my life? I need to love myself first and anything that jeopardizes this or takes away from this love, must go. What is gone will be replaced with something better and prosperity will come back, I just need to let go of what is blocking more abundance coming in.
The Outcome:
My apologies for now posting this 2 weeks into June, but as per usual Gemini Season has been pure chaos and I am counting down the days until Cancer Season begins. I knew May was going to be one of the most challenging months for me and I was weary of this month since I first pulled these cards. Broke is the Beginning and 2 of Cups Reversed is a Major YIKES combination!
Last Gemini Season my car was totaled in a hit and run accident. This month it has been work and family related. The peak of the cards manifestation really began once Saturn in Pisces became conjunct with my natal Venus in Pisces, which is in my 6th House. Also, Saturn is transiting my 6th house until 2026, so I knew work stress was going to come!
Many times Saturn Conjunct Venus can hit your relationship sector - mine hit my work sector the most, but it was still felt in my familial relationships. Before I take a deep dive into my May, I will say that the genius of Gemini is really seeing situations in a new way and I am grateful for the new clarity and awareness I have been given.
Broke is the Beginning came in a very obvious way, by me not making as much money at work due to some changes that were made. As a contractor it can be challenging to make a consistent income, yes you have more freedom in life than working a corporate desk job (which I have done in the past and vowed to never do again), but it can be very financially stressful at times. With many pep talks, deep breaths and positive affirmations that I had to tell myself on the daily, I got through May. Like the majority of people in this country, times are really hard right now and it has been hard to feel fully happy about anything. I know the universe will never leave me without and I have a very blessed life, but when Saturn meets with your Venus, your money can be affected and mine definitely has.
All I can do is take things day by day and stay in faith, but unfortunately with the 2 of Cups reversal, I have lost a lot of happiness and just view things so differently now. I’m trying to lay low until things change, but I know that eventually Saturn will get off my Venus for a bit and I will have a little break before it returns with the retrograde later this summer.
However, in May I was given 3 new business opportunities I am very excited about and will talk about eventually, so there has been some silver lining to my work situation. The 2 of Cups Reversal has made it really hard to be happy with my relationships with family. I am sure many of you struggle with addiction in your family. I for one am just the same and have three generations of family members who are closeted alcoholics. I say closeted, because they are in denial that they abuse alcohol. I am very fortunate that my parents and boyfriend do not really drink and I personally do not drink.
As a healer I am always holding space for people and I like to keep a clean channel, so I do not do any drugs or alcohol. In the spiritual health system drinking alcohol is the most low vibrational thing you can do to your body and yes it is worse longterm than hardcore drugs. Alcohol is NOT COOL! I personally hate when I see my friends and family destroy their lives with alcohol and are drunk or need to have events that always are surrounded by drinking as a way to have fun.
Sadly, now due to two family feuds that happened at my cousins wedding in May, members of the family are not talking, relationships are strained and it really does seem like no one wants to take accountability and change. I have decided to distance myself from it all. It is sad as someone who grew up with a close family, but alcohol has really been the poison in my family. I am blessed that my parents, siblings, brother in law and my boyfriend barely drink and have a life outside of alcohol.
It is hard to help those who do not want to be helped or see an issue with their alcohol consumption. I’m not saying we need to bring back prohibition, but there needs to be stricter laws on alcohol. I do not have the bandwidth to figure out what that is at the moment, but there needs to be more restrictions on alcohol and less restrictions on plant medicine. But only in a perfect world. Anyways, May was not a fun month for me and I’m glad its over. I knew it was going to be tough and the cards were right once again. Until next month! - The Punk Priestess
