Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is Strength, reversed. There is more strength in you than you realize, and you aren’t giving yourself the credit you’re due. Today, focus on crushing those internal voices of doubt that tell you you aren’t good enough. Consciously practice speaking your strengths, even if it feels fake at first. Deep inside there’s a part of you that recognizes what you’re all about, and that is the voice that deserves to be heard. Give it a place in your life to counteract all the negativity so that you can grow to truly own your power.

Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is the High Priestess, reversed. You’re experiencing confusion and you aren’t sure what path to take. Given the messages of the past few days’ readings, I’d say this is to be expected. You need to find your center of calm, and then–do nothing for a while. Set the issue aside, and stop thinking about it so much. You’re overthinking things, and that’s got you backed into a corner. Instead, focus on something else a while, and see whether that gives you the clarity you’ve been seeking.

Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is the Seven of Pentacles. I’ve been talking a lot the past couple days about assessing whether your effort has been worth it or not and whether you should keep going. Today, the message is to look at your progress and appreciate what you have accomplished, even in spite of setbacks. Even if you end up deciding to change your current trajectory, don’t dismiss everything you’ve learned and achieved already. Just because something didn’t turn out the way you expected doesn’t mean you didn’t get anything out of it, after all!

Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is the Nine of Wands, reversed. This card is basically confirming the message of yesterday’s Pocket Osteomancy reading. You feel alone and like you’re the only person still pushing at the effort you’ve been engaged in for so long, and it’s making you wonder whether it’s worth it. You need to have a long think about this whole situation, because you’re already courting burnout. Will the potential payout–if it happens–be worth all the risk?

Tooth: The Tooth is on the border between Fall and Winter. You’re hesitant, because you don’t know if it’s time to take a break or not. Should you keep trying to milk a situation for anything else that can be gained, or is it time to stop? You worry you may be missing out on valuable opportunities if you stop now, but you also run the risk of wasting your time for dwindling returns.
Vertebra: Just about to start the move from Spring to Summer, this bone suggests that you’re on the cusp of growth, and that may be feeding your worries above. But until you’ve actually seen that shift happen, where you know that what you’ve been doing is paying off, you can’t say for sure whether it’s worth it or not. However, you’re stuck in the sunk cost fallacy: you’ve put so much effort into this endeavor at this point that you’re afraid to cut your losses, especially because you can still rationalize reasons to hang on just a little longer.
Rib: This bone is settled into Winter. You’re tired and burned out, and what you really want is to just stop and rest. But you’re having trouble letting yourself do that because of all those worries, and the fear of missing out. You have to decide whether your emotional health can handle continuing the way that you have been. Will it be worth the strain if there’s a payoff? What if things end up not working out after all? This is the tough decision you have to make.
Long Bone: The Long Bone is almost entirely in Spring, with just the last little bit left in Winter. You’ve been spinning your wheels a while, and while things look like they have promise, you aren’t seeing fruition yet. At least you know the territory, and what you’re in for. Your actions aren’t going to see much change unless they start bringing you results, and right now it looks like you’re just going to keep doing the same old, same old for a while yet.
Overview: You’re feeling stuck in a rut. Your motivation is waning as you wonder whether you’re wasting your time. yet there’s something that motivates you to keep going even through the malaise. What is it? You need to figure out whether there’s any substance to it, or if you’re just chasing a pipe dream.
Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is the Magician, reversed. You are taking yourself for granted, and not giving yourself enough credit. You think of yourself as incompetent, and yet you have achieved so much in this life! Stop comparing yourself to other people; all you do is hamstring yourself that way. Instead, step back and take an objective look at everything you have learned and done over the years, and consider how much more potential for growth you still have. You are an amazing being, and it’s time you believed that fact.

Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is the Lovers, reversed. You need to look below the surface of whatever conflict you’re dealing with here. What’s immediately obvious is not necessarily the root of the problem. You may need to look at the motivations of the people involved, and perhaps try to see things from their perspective. You also need to examine your own thoughts and feelings more deeply, in case there’s something you’re missing or in denial about.

Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is the Empress. Have you connected with the natural world lately? It is high summer, and life is in overdrive, with all sorts of young beings stretching forth toward the sunlight. But it is also a time to be mindful of the care we need to have for these beings, for we have cause an immense amount of imbalance and destruction to their world.

Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is the Seven of Cups, reversed. If you are facing a difficult decision, go with your gut. You know deep down what needs to happen. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t temper it with rational consideration, of course. But this is one of those things where you need to be true to yourself, and trust your own judgement. Allowing yourself to be distracted by outside factors could mean trouble ahead.

Today’s (slightly belated) Summer Solstice Skull Scrying comes from Black bear. Here is what she had to say:
“The sun rides high in the sky, and the heat brings out the sharpness in the scents around me. I can smell the water evaporating from morning mist, and I lick my chops. I have been well awake for some time now, first through the time of earthy roots, and then into the time of salmonberries, and now an abundance of grubs to be found in rotted logs. Flowers begin to turn to fruit, with the sun warming the slowly ripening skins.
Life is at its zenith, and all seems well. But the plants know that this is the beginning of the end. The frenzied growth they have experienced since spring’s beginning will be replaced by a gradual senescence as the sun begins its trip back south. Now is our glorious hurrah, and yet these green beings lead the vanguard toward sleep.
Where are you, humans, in your time? Have you already ascended the peak, and are you now beginning the descent? The ever-harsher heat you have brought upon us all says that there is trouble ahead, as there is trouble now. And, moreover, will you be able to survive the times ahead when food and water are scarce, and sickness plagues the land more than ever?
You have such power, humanity, more than any species has ever dreamed of. Yet it has been squandered on selfishness and destruction. As your awareness of this grows, what shall you do with the knowledge you are only now realizing? Life hangs on the precipice, and it could fall either way. To which end will you throw your weight?”
