Soul Reading for the Week of November 2

It's November already and I can't believe it! Halloween (Samhain) is a time to honour the dead and to explore ancestral lineage healing. My sweet l'il doggie Djinn Djinn explored her first beach/ocean ever and I'm gearing up for a small art show in Temecula, California titled "Smile like you mean it.” I can only seem to paint cute kitty cats these days perhaps because we could all use some warm, fuzzy kitty hugs during these crazy times.

As always, I suggest watching my Moonday Soul Reading Video below first to guide, inspire and cheer you on in the coming week and then checking out the oracle cards pulled in the reading for the week beginning Nov 2. All cards are from my hand painted oracle decks and are described in greater detail when you scroll down.

Sparkly Blessings!

Me

When this card appears in a reading it’s time to get serious, take charge and get ‘er done! Put on your action cap or your thinking cap or whatever cap you need to help you focus on what’s important. If you’re a woman this may mean accessing your animus or your inner male – the part of you that thinks in a linear, goal focused way. Whether male or female take a moment to honour yourself and recognize all you’ve achieved so far in your life.

In my own personal life I gain daily focus by writing a to-do list every morning after breakfast; a list that actually is do-able so that I can gain much needed satisfaction from checking things off my list.

Halloween Full Moon Soul Reading + Samhain Blessings

Every Moonday I share a Soul Reading Video and Blog with the help of my hand painted oracle decks to guide you through the week ahead. This week there is a Full Moon on Saturday in conjunction with the Witches’ New Year: Samhain (or Halloween). This is a time when the veil between worlds is thin and we welcome in our ancestors and wise guides from the Other Side to share any messages they might have for us as we in turn honour them with gifts of food and drink, photos, memorabilia and memories, heartfelt and magickal.

Abby-Girl

The beloved dead surround us, the unborn future waits…in this darkness we birth the eternal Now, for all time is one and magick awaits, awakening our intuitive heart in tune with Mama Moon. Blessed Be.

This Samhain I will be remembering my big dog Abby who passed away on Sept. 21. She was my best friend and I miss her terribly but know I will be with her again one day. I see her now with Goddess Diana roaming free and shining bright in the sky.

Mel by Kathy Crabbe

Card 6: Mel (Lefty Oracle Deck)

Mantra: I dance.

If this card appears in a reading it’s definitely time to try something new. Perhaps step out of your comfort zone or get out of your own way. Whatever helps you shake things up and gain new insights and a new perspective. Be wacky, colorful, free, flamboyant for a change, or if you’re naturally this way try being quiet, contemplative, and/or inward.

In my own life I observed how this card helped someone very close to me as she was dying. Finding some lightness, humour and colour in your day can mean a whole lot to you when you are afraid and in pain.

Artemis, Artemis,
Goddess of the wood
You are bows and arrows, death and birth
Midnight revels and pregnant mirth.
Wild woman, child, hunter of beast,
We find our true self when we dance at your feast.

Artemis is the virgin moon-goddess roaming the forest with her band of nymphs, bearing the bow and quiver, avoiding men and killing any male who looks upon her. She was also known as the many-breasted Artemis of Ephesus, a symbol of fecundity. As the warlike Artemis she is said to have been the special goddess of the Amazons.

Behold by Kathy Crabbe

Card 5: Abraxia upholds the sky (Lefty Oracle Deck)

Mantra: I expand.

Affirmation: I am guided by my own innate wisdom and in tune with Mother Earth and Father Sky.

Element: Air

If this card appears in a reading anything goes; the possibilities are endless. You have the power to reach for the stars and expand your consciousness into infinity. Your will is strong, your reach is far and your intuition is a guiding force. You are a power to be reckoned with. If you don’t feel this within yourself, then seek out a new friend or an old friend who is expanding in this way and watch their magick unfold. Learn from it; ask questions, analyze, intuit, journal.

In my own life, I find that this card stimulates my strong double Aquarius Moon so I push myself to reach deeper and farther into the mystery, untangle webs and uncover stars. My responsibilities as a shaman and healer are being tested, and I must become stronger because growth is change and I must surrender to the inevitable. The only thing we know for certain is that this too shall change.

Expressive Body Movement Challenge
Stand up (or if you prefer, stay seated) with your arms stretched up high and your feet firmly planted on the ground. Lift your arms as if you’re trying to touch the stars in the night sky (like Goddess Nut), bearing the weight of all this beauty and yourself. Feel your body as a conduit connecting earth and sky. You are a Divine channel allowing the heavens to touch the Earth. Be with this. Feel this. Stretch, stretch, stretch and imagine.

Card 6: Horse (Elfin Ally Oracle Deck)

Horse by Kathy Crabbe

Keyword: Graceful
Meaning: With great pride and joy you charge forward trusting you are on the right path.
Reversed: You are at a crossroads, stuck and uncertain.

Affirmation: I am loyal and free.
Astrology: Jupiter, Sagittarius, Sun
Element: Fire

Medicine: Your gentle, spirited eyes kiss and heal the freedom lover within.

Lore: She called to her wildness and freedom unchained, at home with the wind, her beauty un-reined.

I hear you call my name each night before I go to sleep. Your gentle whinny in my ear tells me I am safe and sleep is guaranteed.

Battle cry.

Benzaitan or Benten was one of the seven Japanese divinities of good luck also known as the Dragon Woman and Queen of the Sea, often appearing surrounded by a retinue of white snakes. Benzaitan brings inspiration, talent, wealth and romance to those who honor her.

Behold by Kathy Crabbe

Card 3: Behold (Lefty Oracle Deck)

Mantra: I delight.
Affirmation: Dare I eat the fruit of my delight?
Element: Spirit

If this card appears in a reading it’s time to plunge into the dark and pull out hope. Whatever stressful conundrum you’re currently in, know that you HAVE the resources and inner strength and power to find a solution and gain clarity. You CAN pull it off. It may require some dirty work, so buckle down and get your hands dirty. There is a decent prize at the end of it all and it’s definitely worth fighting for. If you’re hesitant or un-sure of what to do next then think like a cat, independently. Think for yourself; trust yourself. Call upon your intuition and the Divine or your higher power. You CAN do this; it’s just a matter of time before all will be sorted out and you can once again move forward.

In my own life I sometimes need to get my ‘monkey-mind’ (when my mind is all over the place) out of the mix and be more fully in the moment, trusting that I am being guided and that I can indeed hear and trust my intuition. Like a muscle, the more I work it, the stronger it becomes.

Card 3: Grey Squirrel (Elfin Ally Oracle Deck)

Reversed: If only you could figure things out but you’re over thinking it.

Lore: Squirrel was her wee champion, full of advice all day long, and nuts, and smiles, and songs that kept her spiky thoughts at bay, so that finally, she too could sleep and dream of a better day.

Quick and sure, fast and alert, you keep me on my toes and in the groove – ready for action – my furry friend!

Beebalm by Kathy Crabbe

Card 5: Beebalm (Cat Herbal Healing Deck - coming in 2021)

Beebalm or ‘Balm’ is often worn and mixed into baths to attract love and success.

Card 2: Perdida Kept Her Fishy Stories To Herself (Lefty Oracle Deck)

Perdida by Kathy Crabbe

Mantra: I am at peace.
Affirmation: A secret is a treasure I guard with my heart.
Element: Water

When this card appears in a reading it suggests that you need to share less of yourself with others. Are you over extending yourself right now? It’s time to make space and time for you even if it’s only one minute a day. Set aside a specific time of day starting today because YOU deserve it.

In my own life I start my day by devoting time to meditation, scrying, homework and writing my daily to-do list in my journal along with the phase and sign of the moon. By doing this first thing I take advantage of my peak energy point of the day and this helps start my day off right by aligning me with my higher purpose in tune with Mama Moon and the Divine.

Card 3: Chinchilla (Elfin Ally Oracle Deck)

Chinchilla by Kathy Crabbe

Keyword: Magic
Meaning: Your intuition is your guide.
Reversed: You are asleep and not dreaming.

Affirmation: My eyes are filled with stars.
Astrology: Jupiter
Element: Fire

Medicine: Your starry wisdom leads the way into Otherworlds for we trust your vision to guide us.

Lore: In the sweet close of day she shared her starry secrets with Chinchilla, her ally who comforted her with a curious listening stillness that calmed her heart.

I am a happy Elf Princess with a sweet, toothy Chinchilla by my side; lucky me when it’s cold outside! I protect her from the rain and hot sun and she protects me so I can dream and dance with the stars and then share my visions with my people who trust them above all else when it comes to making a home in faraway lands.

Heather Fairy by Kathy Crabbe

Card 4: Heather (Fairy Herbal Cat Healing Deck)

Heather is an herb of immortality ruled by the planet Venus and the Goddess Isis. Heather also has a long history of helping to conjure ghosts. Heather is also a valuable herb for those who pursue initiatory paths, as they work to unfold the inner self.
