Focusing on the relationship between two people at home. This can be a few different relationships. Focusing on the emotions between us. I need to finish up this “path” so all can move on into our new beginnings.
I need to give my undivided attention to a pattern that has ended internally, but that I am still acting out. My attention is needed to stop reenacting the old pattern.
Summary
Pretty sure this has to do with the ongoing conflict between my sister and I (she hasn’t spoken to me for a year) and I’m a little anxious about seeing her again when we visit dad.
I always love how you incorporate your reads so easily!!
Not a problem at all Luna, we’re here when you are. Love that 2 Pent card!
I thought the same thing, but I really found it understandable the way you were able to read a hiccup into that card! Again, likewise with your 10 of Swords. Wonderful interpretation.
Well, gonna make some American food for the Fourth for my Mexican Grandson and Mexican Nephew. Grandson has been in the USA for a while, but Nephew is all new to this.
Greenbriar, I can’t believe this, my draw for today is also the 10 Swords.
The question: Am I “operating at top efficiency”? (Am I trying my best?)
And, it’s the 10 of Swords. The 10 representing culmination, a sum-up, in this case the mind. So, I have come to the realization of pain and collapse (in my marriage) but have opened a new positive opportunity/venture. With this being the case, I would have to say, yes, I am “operating at top efficiency”. I have accepted the disappointment of my marriage, but am able to move on without focus on the past and am able to put my energy into the new venture with my son.
Well, putting this in late Thursday, early the Fourth, I figure most people will be busy.
I wanted to go with an America 250 theme with this draw. I discovered the AI would not produce a random draw - I drew 20 cards and they were all Majors and all super positive. So, heck with it. I’ll use one of them and just call today’s draw an affirmation.
Tarot today - What/Who should I say NO to today? 6 Wands; 6 Lovers; Q Pent.
This was interesting. This is what I came up with, took a while to work it out.
In order to maintain my self-confidence (sanity) I need to say NO to anything involving my husband today and focus on nurturing myself.
Which makes absolute sense after what happened yesterday. (My altar was found upturned and burning, in the back yard…ah, locked gate, hmmmm, wonder who it could have been?!)
At first I thought it was simply about saying no and not letting myself be pushy or assertive (which I’m pretty sure I’m not). But then I realized it can be applied a little differently.
For example - Mental Overdrive - I have a tendency to overthink things, to anticipate, over-strategize etc. If I “say no” to those habits and not let them take control, it will leave room for a gentler way of moving forward.
The King of Pentacles (Coins) is the archetype of mastery, stewardship, and mature self‑possession. His “No” is strategic. So my “No” is about protecting the basics of my life - my time, my energy, my resources and maybe most importantly, my peace.
Use whatever you feel called to. This is just friendship and practice. The spells 8 forum has Lenormand daily pulls and Daily Draw that is divination with whatever you choose to use.

Always being the one who has the courage and making the decisions. Being strong for others when I need to be strong for myself. With all the new changes, I need to out me first. And I am not. Everyone is getting the courage and resilience I need to be giving myself. I needed to see this today.
Seven of Cups — Freyja’s Many Jewels (temptation, choice)
Eight of Wands — Sleipnir’s Speed (Odin’s 8 legged horse)
The cards say I am over‑extending in two distinct but intertwined ways: scattering my energy (Seven of Cups) and sprinting without rest (Eight of Wands). I’m trying to do everything at once, at full speed, without a stabilizing center.
While I occasionally overextend - I’m not sure it is as bad as the reading’s strong cards indicate. While my sleep cycle is neurotic (I stay up late - sometimes very late) I do that because I want to - not out of need. Will ponder this.
Side-note about Sleipnir: Sleipnir is the son of Loki. The story of how that happened is one of the weird ones (weirder than most) of the Norse Myths. Google it for a fun read.
Don’t know if anyone here has seen it but I stumbled onto a Tarot quiz from a few years ago. Bry made it - she has lots of little nuggets like it laying around on Spells8.
It looks like most who took it were proficient enough to get good scores. However, I’ve found a quiz is a good teaching element, too. It’s only 10 questions and is well done. If want to try it, go HERE.
Seeing this one jump out of the deck the way it did, I said, ok, I’ll take it. This goes with how life is life-ing. I will find support in introspection in looking at my mind, body, and soul. I need time alone to look into the inner wisdoms of certain spiritual aspects I have been working on. This is a perfect day to do so. Supporting myself is something I do need to help with some self-criticism I have been doing.
