Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is the Page of Pentacles, reversed. Yesterday’s reading mentioned allowing yourself to be open to many different possibilities. Today there’s a warning to not be so open that you can’t pick anything–analysis paralysis, as it were. Try to find the balance that allows you to find a course to follow, but one that isn’t so strict that you’re prevented from making changes. This way you make progress while also being adaptable to changes as they happen.

Tooth: This bone is right in the center of the seasons. This means that you have a lot of potential options in front of you, and you may not be entirely sure which one you want to take just yet. Hopefully this means that you are encountering a wealth of opportunities, as opposed to a pile of confusion. Either way, look to the other bones for direction on what decision you should make next, and perhaps consider keeping as many options open as possible for a while so that you aren’t losing possible gains.
Vertebra: Just about to cross over from Winter into Spring, the Vertebra suggests that although your resources may have been lean for the time being, you are about to shift gears into growth. It will take some preparation, of course, and you may not see the returns immediately. But this is a good sign that change is on the horizon, and you just need to hang tight until you can get through to the other side.
Rib: Fully settled in Summer, this bone promotes optimism and hope. Sure, things aren’t always easy, but they aren’t always hard, either. Do your best to focus on the positive (while keeping a realistic eye on the not so great stuff you have to deal with.) By giving yourself a break from worry and pessimism, you are actually building up your emotional reserves. This will allow you to be more open to possibilities when they arise, and also have the energy and motivation to make the most of them.
Long Bone: Moving from Summer into Fall, the Long Bone suggests that your actions are about to show some results after a lot of work and effort. It doesn’t mean you should slow down; rather, keep doing what you’re doing, because it’s working. You may need to change your direction to accommodate the changes on the way, but pay attention to the things in your life that are going well and the choices that you’ve made for the better.
Overview: Prepare for an improvement! It may not be absolutely earth-shattering, but any breathing room is appreciated. Don’t let worry and doubt cloud your vision of the future; rather, allow yourself to be open to possibilities. Focus on what you’ve done right, and use what you’ve learned to keep yourself going. There’s something good on the way; you just need to stay the course til you get to it.
Today’s Tarot of Bones daily draw is the Six of Pentacles. Today’s focus is generosity. In what areas of your life can you afford to be generous without giving too much of yourself? There are always those in need, and you need to be judicious in deciding where your energy and resources go, but even a small bit of help can make a huge difference to someone who’s at a low point in life. Meditate on that balance, and see where you might be able to make the world a little better today.

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.
