Magical Nature Tarot

Guiding words/ideas:

An invitation to find clarity; cutting through systemic programing and misconceptions; using tools (writing, meditating, etc.) to help in this process; being timely and kind in sharing wisdom.

Channeled guidance:

This single sword in the Ace of Swords is slicing through all of one’s confusion, cloudiness, and murkiness. It is slicing through to find a point of clarity and thus removes all misconceptions, societal training, insecurities, and fears. It cuts through the emotions and external conditions that can confuse a being when it comes time to know what is right and true for themselves. This card is an invitation to wield the sword of clarity and to allow it to point to what is real and true for you. 

The arm holding this sword is strong, and the blade is sharp. The sun is bright, and the sword is pointing down to a very specific place, a halo or crescent of fire. Think about what swords you have at your disposal to help you find clarity and information from other beings. Use whatever swords you have to write, journal, talk things out with others or yourself, meditate, and be still. Allow these actions to open yourself to the world around you so that you can be alive and fully conscious in each and every moment.

Once you have clarity, this card then becomes an invitation to use that clarity wisely. Use your new-found clarity for the betterment of all. Be timely with your knowledge. Be kind in your communication and firm in your resolve. This is a new level of lucidity. This is a step towards true wisdom.

Plant and metal guidance:

Coreopsis (orange and yellow of sky, sun and “halo” by tip of sword): We are here to smooth out any sharp edges and to aid in opening hearts.

Acorn cap (light brown/grey of sword blade): Like a gentle pat on the head, we offer up slow-moving energy to open the senses and awaken the mind.

Wild grape (purple in lower half of card): We are the bubbly magicians of the edges (of forests, our fields and our minds). We share with you our positivity, creativity and trickster capabilities.

Avocado (red color seeping down from horizon line): We relate to the heart and core of all beings, and thus share energies of love, sense of purpose and deep connection.
