Today’s Tarot of Bones Daily Draw is the Three of Cups, reversed. Isolation can be a difficult thing, and many of us have had more than our fill over the past two years. It’s okay to reach out to others, even at a distance, and right now it may be more imperative to do so than ever. I know you have a lot on your plate, but you are not an island. Even if you were, in fact, you’d still be connected to others by the great blue ocean, never completely alone. So make some ripples; you’re allowed.

Tooth: The Tooth is in Fall. The decisions you’re making come from a place of accomplishment, and the need to take a break now that you’ve seen some results. Make sure your choices are in alignment with your best interests, to include making space for self-care and enjoyment of life, not just work and responsibility.
Vertebra: This bone is in Spring, but in the corner very near the boundary among all four quadrants. This suggests that your day to day life could go in any of a number of directions, and you’re desperately looking for a change. While Spring may seem lovely, it’s still a lean time for many, and you really want to get rid of things in your life that no longer do well for you. It’s time to streamline, and move on.
Rib: Tucked up right next to the Long Bone in Fall, the Rib suggests that you are acting through your emotions. You’re tired, you need a break, and you’re no longer pretending otherwise. It’s okay to be honest about your needs and wants; just make sure that you also consider the rational perspectives associated with your decisions.
Long Bone: Also in Fall, supported a bit by the Rib, this bone reiterates that message that you’re letting your emotions lead you. Don’t get me wrong–you’re correct in that this is a good time to slow down so you can get a clearer view of the world around you. But you do need a balanced perspective.
Overview: This reading is very similar to last week’s osteomancy reading. Not only is it reminding it’s okay to take a break, but your perspective may be clouded by your emotional and physical exhaustion. Failing to listen to yourself could lead to worse problems in the long run, to include a collapse of your overall health. So for your own good–rest.
Today’s Tarot of Bones Daily Draw is the Lovers. Today, focus on love and connection–and not just romantically! It could be with a partner, a friend, family, even a pet or other companion. And don’t forget to foster a healthy relationship with yourself! I know these relationships aren’t always easy, especially for those who haven’t always had good models of connection to learn from. And it’s okay if you don’t “get it right” all the time, whatever that looks like. We’re human, we screw up, it’s okay. Just do your best to try to accentuate the positive and healthy connections you do have, even with their imperfections, and see if there are ways to leverage what’s good to help you deal with the not-so-great in a constructive, mutually fulfilling way.

Today’s Tarot of Bones Daily Draw is the Moon, reversed. It’s a difficult but necessary work to deal with our shadows, whether that’s anxiety and depression, obsessions, traumas and fear, or other negative influences that come from within–and which often have their roots in the world around us as well. We can only do so much about these things, but when we at least try to address them to the best of our ability we take a step toward bettering our life. We also gain more realistic expectations of ourselves, and that can help us to set better boundaries, to include with others. So keep up the hard work; you’re worth it.

Today’s Tarot of Bones Daily Draw is the Hanged Man. My readings this week have been pointing a lot toward slowing down and taking time to rest. You should also use this time to reflect, and see whether your path is really going where you need or want it to. By doing this assessment, you are looking for whatever may no longer serve you, or even what could be threatening your progress. And by excising these things, or at least adjusting to them, you make your success more likely.

Tooth: The Tooth is settled firmly in Fall, suggesting that you should be planning to slow down and set aside whatever resources you have leftover for the future. You’ve put in a lot of effort, and it’s been paying off, but don’t let your success lead you to overdoing it. Instead, whether you need to be saving money, energy, or time, give yourself the opportunity to hang onto something for a rainy day.
Vertebra: This bone is way over in Spring. You may feel that your everyday life is opening up to some new possibilities and that you should jump on them now. However, remember that Spring is still often a lean time; flowers are not as edible as fruits, after all. And while your situation is improving, you don’t want to squander what you’ve managed to put aside, so just cool your jets for now.
Rib: On the cusp of Summer and Fall, you’re definitely feeling some accomplishment and pride, and well you should! It’s okay to bask in your achievements; too often we’re discouraged from being “too prideful” even when we’re just being justifiably happy about something good. So allow yourself to glow; it’s not every day that you have such a sense of victory!
Long Bone: On the boundary of Fall and Winter, your actions are saying that you’re ready for a break. And really, that’s the best thing for you. Everyone deserves downtime, and if you’ve managed to carve out some time for yourself, don’t fritter it away with creating unnecessary busy-ness. Instead, let yourself unwind and unfold a bit so that you can recuperate and be ready for whatever’s next.
Overview: You know how they tell you not to rest on your laurels? Well, now you actually get to do that! You don’t have to fill every waking moment with activity, and really it’s not good for you to never take a break except when you sleep. So make the most of a windfall of resources by taking time to relax, and setting something aside for the future so that you’re not just constantly spinning your wheels.
Today’s Tarot of Bones Daily Draw is the Seven of Pentacles, reversed. This is a good sign that you’re feeling directionless in your life, professional and otherwise. Maybe you feel like you don’t have a long-term goal, or that the thing you were working toward isn’t a viable option any more. This could breed depression and angst, so you need to be mindful of your mental health during this difficult existential time. Your best bet may be to take a step back, breathe, and then rethink your trajectory to the best of your ability.

Today’s Tarot of Bones Daily Draw is the Four of Cups, reversed. Sometimes our brains like to lie to us, and one of the biggest is all about rejection. if your brain is telling you no one likes you, people only tolerate you, etc. you need to see through its deception. You are deserving of love and attention, and pushing it away won’t help you to experience that acceptance.
