Elevate Your Reading for Yourself and Others In partnership with Azahar Aguilar Tarot and Clay Series Part 4

Even if you know nothing about the cards, they can still speak to you. If you allow them to. If you make space to listen. Because we tend to care for others better than we care for ourselves. The cards remind you that you are worthy, too. When you forget to nourish, set boundaries, love, and protect yourself, the cards let you know.
Just like a good friend, they can give you tough love. Call you out. Read you to filth. They can also gas you up. Remind you of your power. Tell you how life will look if you allow it. 

Will you allow it? Sometimes we make ourselves fail by pretend trying, and then act like it’s proof the inability, mistakes, and failure are true. The cards remind you that this is not true. You deserve your own kindness. You deserve to put in your all. You deserve to flourish and expand in ways you never dreamed possible.
