Iris X Reading of the week/week beginning on 9/12/22

Good morning and happy Moon day to the friends of Iris X Readings. Every week, I shuffle the cards and ask for a reading for someone who will read this post. I never know who it will be for until I post it. Sometimes, it's for one person, other times it is for many. This reading was done on the Santa Muerte Tarot. 

The week begins with an idea. The Ace of Wands is an opportunity that you can take and run with right now. You are inspired by something and wanting to move forward. Your plan would change everything, and you are trying to decide if you should take the opportunity of the Wand, or leave it where it is. You are not obligated to take it, but an Ace shows a potential for something to work really well. 

The IX of Swords appears next, showing you in a cage of your own thoughts. Nervous and anxious, it's hard to move forward with new plans when you are thinking the worst of everything. When you think of your new opportunity, you see the things that could go wrong. Instead of what it could mean if it all went Right. Worrying is keeping you up at night. 

The Page of Cups appears next. First, it is normal for your emotions to be shaken up when thinking of starting something new. You are worried that things will not go ok, but this is often how it feels right before something really big happens. Remember- you were excited about this opportunity, and then- you thought too much about it. I always pull a card as a message when I see a Page, and the message is The HIgh Priestess. Stay centered and calm. Look at the situation from a place of discernment- not fear. The High Priestess is the gatekeeper. Perhaps- there is something to this idea you are having.

The key to the week is another Page. The Page of Wands is a message of the excitement that you were having (all of this- before worrying!). But he is also a messenger communicating something very important for you to hear. The message that came up is the X of Pentacles. This is a card of success and prosperity. It shows things working out for you in a very real and manifested way. If you take this option and run with it- it will go well financially for you. The cards are saying- move forward. This is going to work out. 

Here's what I see. Two Messengers (Pages) came up to tell you that you are talking yourself out of something that could be very good for you. You have a high chance of being really successful right now, but you are coming up with reasons for why things won't work. You seem to have an idea that will go well if you move forward. Use your discernment to tell the difference between excitement and anxiety. There are good reasons to move forward here, and if you do- you will be successful. Take a chance on the Ace of Wands- it will be worth it.
