Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here's your perfectly time to tarot An intuitive reading for
the week starting first of September twenty twenty five. Now
I say perfectly timed, because yes, this reading is absolutely
for the week starting first of September twenty twenty five.
But the truth is, whenever you're listening to this, whenever
we're connecting and you're receiving this reading, whether it's days, weeks, months,

(00:23):
or even years after that date, just know that you're
receiving this at exactly the right time and in exactly
the right way for you. I'd like you to just
take a beautiful deep breath, hold it for a moment
and exhale, and just know that you are in exactly
the right place and exactly the right time, and go
ahead and set the intention that the right messages jump

(00:44):
out at you, because this episode is full of gold
nuggets from my own life and practice, intuitive messages, and
of course some beautiful Taro readings as well. Very shortly,
I'm going to pause some cards for you from the
Ride Away Smith Taro, deck read them and describe them
as I go along. I'm also going to share intuitive
guidance and messages that come through me as well, So

(01:06):
make sure that you're nice and comfortable, you've got your
notebook and pen ready, and most importantly, that you are
open to the messages that you most need. Okay, So
as I'm shuffling the cards, I want to let you
know two very exciting announcements. The first is we are
doing a beautiful reopen of the Confident Reader Mastermind. So
if you're ready to learn how to retaro with confidence,

(01:30):
take yourself seriously as a reader, and develop your intuition
and gifts, then we're ready for you. There's a whole
library of trainings just waiting for you to dive into,
and of course our beautiful group sessions and bonus materials
as well. And the other announcement I've got for you
is live workshops will be starting again this month. Okay,

(01:51):
so the first card that's come up for you for
this week is the Magician. I always smile when this
comes up because it's just honestly my favorite card in
the whole deck. This is a really beautiful start to
the reading and a very powerful start I think to
this new month as well. Right September one is particularly
magical because it's the first it's also a Monday. It
also marks the sort of turning point right. August was

(02:14):
intense in a lot of ways. It was very hot.
We had you know, retrograde, we had shadow period, we
had some other sort of astrological stuff going on as well,
and September is much lighter and fresher now. The Magician
card is a powerful card from the major arcana, and
it's really an invitation for you to reclaim the magic

(02:35):
in your life. Okay, few of the beautiful symbols I
want to share with you from this card. The first
is the infinity symbol above the magician's head, indicating the
infinite possibilities that are within and around you. Stop limiting
yourself thinking the worst. And also, you know, I'm getting
a strong message for you here. Stop replaying old versions

(02:56):
of yourself and making decisions from those versions of yourself.
You want to be making decisions from the new role
that you're playing in the movie of your life. Okay,
Instead of always reacting from the old version of you,
respond from the new version of you. Think about how
you can really step into your power, you know, using

(03:18):
the using the power of your self concept, how you
see yourself and most importantly, how you show up in
your life. If you're always making decisions and sort of
seeing yourself as maybe disempowered or someone that needs saving,
then you're going to be always playing that role. The
magician is really asking you to understand how powerful you

(03:39):
already are in your life. Another symbol I want to
share with you is the position of the arms. Now.
I share this in nearly all of my readings using
this beautiful card because it's just such a magical message
for us. The arm pointing up holding the wand represents
as above, and the arm pointing down represents so below.
As above so below basically means your mindset, the way

(04:03):
you see yourself, the way that you think and feel
about yourself greatly influences and impact your life the things
that manifest around you. I want to say something to
you now that might sound a little bit blunt, but
this is said with love and respect. Okay, you need
to really make sure that your inner world is a sacred,

(04:24):
safe place for you. If you are always putting yourself down,
criticizing yourself, and scaring yourself, it's going to be very
difficult for you to manifest the things that you want
because as above, so below right. So, for example, if
you're always scaring yourself, imagining the worst or criticizing yourself,
and then you're doing lots of maybe love and relationship

(04:46):
type magic. Of course that magic will work, but it's
always going to come through that filter. You always want
to start with creating what you want inside of yourself first.
So let's say that you're wanting to manifest healthy, happy, romantic,
new relationship. Of course, do your spell work, do your candles,
do your vision boards, all those beautiful things, but start

(05:07):
giving that to yourself first. Start treating yourself with that
sense of kindness and romance and love. Create what you
want inside of yourself first. If it's more success, more clients,
more more abundance, same thing, stop scaring yourself, start cultivating
feelings of gratitude and appreciation and see yourself as successful. Okay.

(05:31):
The third symbol that I want to share with you
from this beautiful card is actually the altar in front
of the magician showing all the other suits of the tarot,
but also tools, and the message here is really about
you using the tools within you and around you. I
was reading for a beautiful client earlier, and a message
that kept coming through for them was are you witching

(05:52):
about it? Or bitching about it? Right, This is something
I say a lot in my workshops as well. I
just love this phrase. Are you witching about it or
bitching about it? Now? Bitching about it basically means you're
complaining about something you're sort of maybe going into like
a disempowered self talk or sort of victim narrative. Not
much can come from that, Okay. Witching about it means

(06:13):
that you are doing magic on the situation. You're aligning
your inner world with what you want, and you are
managing your self concept, your vibration, your frequency. You're not
letting the outside world dictate how you see yourself and
what's true for you. Okay, I want you to remember
that phrase. Are you witching about it or bitching about it?
Of course, process what you need to process. Talk to

(06:34):
people you know, of course, But if there's a goal
or an intention or something that's really important for you,
stop disempowering yourself and then wondering why things aren't landing
the way that you want them to. With your magic,
start with your inner world first, Okay, speak to yourself
with kindness and love, but also speak to yourself in

(06:54):
the way that builds you up. That empowers you start
doing magic from that version of yourself. Okay, next card
is the beautiful Queen of Swords. Now she is such
a great card. I think visually it's a beautiful image.
But the Queen of Swords is all about boundaries, protecting
your energy, protecting your world. Actually, this is something that's

(07:15):
really important. You know, whatever you're wanting to manifest in
your life, whether it's you know, more success, more abundance, relationships, moving, travel, more,
whatever it is, right, whatever is important to you, The
Queen of Swords is there to remind you of a
few things, one of which is clarity of intent. Get
crystal clear on what you want and claim it. Don't

(07:36):
be wishy washy with the things that you want. Oh
I'd love that, but no, don't do that. Okay, in
the bin with that, I want you to be really clear,
and I want you to give yourself permission to name
and claim the goal. This is what I want, this
is my goal. Okay, give yourself permission to do that.
Then I want you to protect your world, really protect

(07:57):
your world. I use this example a lot in my workshops.
But if one of the things that you're wanting to
manifest in your life is let's say, you know, a healthy,
happy relationship. Stop listening to sad, angry music. Stop talking
to people about all those things that went wrong you're
upset about, Stop following those kind of accounts, Stop listening
to people who don't have what you want. I know

(08:19):
this might sound extreme, but it's true. If you're wanting
to create something in your life, you have to really
protect your kind of inner world, especially from things that
are the opposite of that. You know, listening to someone
endlessly complain about their relationship is not going to help
you get into a happy, healthy one. Similarly, with prosperity,
money abundance, don't listen to people complain about things and

(08:43):
you know, overly focus on the stuff they don't want.
You want to really protect your energy. Okay, connect to
you know, social media accounts, podcasts, people, coaches, mentors, readers
that lift you up and they pull you up to
where you want to be. You know, a little side
note here I'll give you. Don't work with readers or

(09:03):
coaches or mentors who get in the mud with you
and complain. You want to be with people who pull
you up. They pull you up to their vibration and
that's One of the things I always do with my
clients is I will not let them criticize themselves, you know,
play victim, put themselves down and scare themselves. Just before
recording this, I sent two clients a message saying, is
your crown back on? You know, we had just done

(09:25):
a session and we've been coaching on like, you know,
putting the crown back on and taking their power back.
So I'm saying that to you as well. Protect your
energy and you know, connect to people and things that
support what you want. Maybe it's time to stop following
those accounts that constantly post angry Rante videos. Maybe at
the time to stop listening to that sad, angry music,

(09:46):
especially if you're wanting to create change. Okay, think of
it like everything that you connect to has an impact,
has an effect. I remember years ago talking to a
personal trainer and he was like, everything that you do
this week right down, it all adds up. It's the
same thing with manifestation. If you're wanting to create more
wealth and success and ease, then you sort of you

(10:09):
need to make sure that your habits and your inner
world are aligning to that too. Okay. Third card is
the beautiful four of ones. Now. I love this card.
It's a happy, beautiful card, but it's also a great
reminder about building the foundation first. Okay, building the foundation
for what you want first. An example I often use is,

(10:29):
imagine that you want to be a speaker, right, you
want to be someone who does talks and you know,
speak at events and you do videos and all that stuff.
How you would lay the foundation for that would be
first of all within yourself, seeing yourself as someone who
is a speaker, spending time visualizing that, feeling the feelings,
practicing giving your talk, practicing walking around the room. I've

(10:52):
told this story many times on here, but years before
I ever started doing classes, I would practice. I would
literally walk around my living room practice talking, so that
when that actually did happen, I just sort of went
into this, you know, almost well, let's say a well
rehearsed role. So I want you to think about what
foundations are you laying right now? Are you laying the

(11:13):
foundations for what you want or what you don't want?
Are you laying the foundation for the old version of
yourself or the version of yourself that you're stepping into
If you're wanting to let's say again, be in a healthy,
happy relationship. Some ways that you could be laying the
foundations would be, you know, making sure that you're taking

(11:34):
great care of yourself, making sure that you know you're
you know, you're loving it, and being kind to yourself. Right,
you're putting yourself out there in a healthy way. You're
also looking at ways you might be, you know, possibly
pushing people away. I'm just using examples here, but think
about how you can start laying the foundation for what
you want within yourself and then practically inside my Confident

(11:57):
Reader Mastermind program, one of the things we do a
lot of work on is self concept, seeing yourself as
a gifted, talented reader who is confident in giving readings
and sees themselves in that way. Right, there's no point
in wishing for anything. You need to decide, So I
want you to decide what's true for you right now.
I mean, look at the first three cards of this reading.

(12:18):
We've what the Magician. We've got that reminder of your
power and your magic. We've got the Queen of Swords,
set that intention, protect your energy, and then we've got
the four of Ones. Lay the foundation for what you want.
Every single time you start practicing the habits of that
version of yourself. You are laying the foundation for what
you want. Ask yourself, how can I lay the foundation

(12:38):
for what I want? Fourth card is the Four of Cups. Now,
the four of Cups is a beautiful one. Actually, people
see this and they kind of go, oh, I don't
like that energy. No, let me tell you why this
is great. The Four of Cups can be an invitation
to look at where you might be closed, might be
being closed to what you want, okay, where you might

(12:59):
be sort of push pushing things away or not quite
open to them, and that can manifest as things like
putting yourself down, speaking negatively about yourself, criticizing yourself, or
even just you know, assuming things every time that you assume, Oh,
it's tough out there, people aren't buying, there's no one
to meet in my city. I could never do that.

(13:19):
You are going into four of Cups energy, you're sort
of closing off opportunities. If you look at the image
of the card, the Four of Cups, it shows somebody
sat under a tree, legs folded, arms cross looking away.
What's right next to them is a cup coming out
of the cloud, sort of almost waiting for them. To
take it, but he's not taking it because he's sort

(13:41):
of looking away a bit annoyed. It's the same thing
when we're trying to manifest something. You cannot be annoyed
and irritated about something enough to manifest it right. And
on a much more let's say, subtle level, If you
are making comments and statements about yourself and your life
and you're going into stories that don't support what you want,

(14:02):
there could be right in front of you, let's say
an opportunity or a synchronicity or a person, but you're
not tuning into it. And that's one of the things
about magic is you know, there's many different paths and
faiths to talk about, like timelines, you know, different versions
of you and different realities and things. I truly believe that,
And when you do magic and you're aligning with that

(14:25):
version of yourself, you are sort of jumping timelines, if
you want to call it that, And then that's when
those things magically punintended just appear in front of you.
But the truth is they were always there. They were
just waiting for you to get into alignment with them. Okay,
next card six of Pentacles, there could not be a
better card after the four of Cups. These two are
like opposite energy. The sixer Pentacles is being in the

(14:47):
flow of giving and receiving. It's about being open to
receiving what you want. If what you wanted appeared in
front of you right now, would you be ready to
receive it and hold it and into you know the
example that's coming now. Imagine you're an actor, right and
you get a call tonight and someone goes, we've got

(15:09):
a part just come up. Do you want to come
in tomorrow and read for it or do you want
to jump on set right? Do you want to have
that part of the movie? Are you actually ready for
it in terms of how you see yourself, in terms
of what you're rehearsing, and in terms of like just
your self concept. Don't get too addicted to the wanting
of it. Get into the being of it. Okay, that's

(15:30):
coming through me really strongly right now. Stop being so
addicted to the wanting of it and get into the
being of it. Next card is the World, and I
think that beautifully completes the read. The World is actually
all about that. It's about integrating lessons that you've learned,
upgrading how you see yourself, or as I like to say,
updating your inner software and the world is also about

(15:51):
seeing how powerful you are in your own life. There's
two ones in the person's hands, indicating twice the power,
and if you look at the card itself, the persons
just surrounded with this kind of magical energy and symbolism,
and it's really indicating how powerful you are. You've always
got the power of choice, You've got the power of
how you see yourself, the story you tell yourself. You've

(16:13):
also always got the power of practical steps and decisions
that you can make. Okay, I want you to really
think about getting into that place where you're not just
wanting it, but you're being it. Okay, you're stepping into
that new version of yourself. And this really couldn't be
more perfect. Right. We've just got through August. It's a
fresh new month, fresh new energy. We've got the last

(16:35):
four months of the year. I just had to count
on my hand yet four months, four months of the year.
So let's choose together to make this the most magical
four months of the year so far and to wrap
this year up powerfully and beautifully. Okay, I hope you've
enjoyed this reading. This is always such a pleasure to do,
