General Description:
The Hei Tiki amulet is used by the Maoris of New Zealand. It is carved in jade, the sacred stone of the natives. Worn as a neck ornament for good luck, and to protect from witchcraft and evil spirits. These charms are regarded as valuable heirlooms, and are carefully handed down from father to son, as the talisman was believed to possess all the good qualities and virtues of their forefathers. The Hei Tiki is a curious and distorted representation of the human figure in the attitude of listening, the head leaning on the shoulder.

The Priestess is the Gatekeeper of the subconscious, the unknown. She travels in worlds which most of us only glimpse in our dreams. Her realm is that of unseen truths, untapped potentials, and hidden dangers. Purely Yin in nature, The Calling of The Priestess is to go beyond the obvious and visible to tap those powers which are veiled from normal vision. While she is passive by nature, she has the power to uncover unknown potential and is very aware of the infinite potential all humans harbor within them. She is also very patient. She can wait for events to blossom in their own time.
As a daily card, The Priestess suggest the answers you seek can only be found by looking beyond the obvious. This is a span in which you may do better by applying the power of your subconscious to your everyday actions. Your intuition should be very strong. Be patient, allow events to unfold and you will find propitious moments of opportunity.

Witches Rune for the Day
The Blank Rune
Meaning: This is a rune of difficulty and negative influences will rule your life for a time, but as all difficulties are a learning experience it will lead to improved personal perspective and progress on your life’s path. Always consult the surrounding runes with this stone. If it lies with a positive stone, it indicates that the pain of this experience will lead to a beneficial change in circumstances

Like The Sun, The Universe brings good blessings. The Universe appears where all is in balance. It allows you to act effectively not only as an individual but as a member of a group too. The Universe promises contentment, fulfillment and completeness to those under its influence. It doesn’t guarantee there will not be moments of strife or discord in your life, but it does indicate that your trials and tribulations will be overcome; that ultimately you will know inner-peace and contentment. The Universe suggests you have found or will find your place in the scheme of things—that place where all is as it should be.
The Past
Berkano
Berkano is the Rune of birth and rebirth. This may symbolize a time when you are capable of great personal growth. Love may be in the air as well.
The Present
Dagaz
Dagaz represents the fresh light of a new day. You are close to making a breakthrough. You have the will to change whatever you deem necessary. You may see the world with absolute clarity at this time.
The Future
Ansuz
Ansuz represents mankind’s spiritual connection to God and the universe. It is often referred to as the “God Rune.” This Rune embodies reason, truth and justice. It denotes the coming of knowledge and true counsel from a higher authority.

Shuffling the Tarot cards before a reading is an essential step in the Tarot process. This quick action allows you to focus on why you’re conducting the reading and to imprint your energy on the cards.
Before even shuffling the cards, take a moment to reflect and relax. Reading Tarot is all about intuition. Your intuition will help you choose the best Tarot cards for your situation — but only if you can listen to your intuition over the noise of your everyday thoughts.
Then, get ready to shuffle the Tarot cards. If you are using a deck often used by others or you were in a different space/mood during your last reading, you need to override the previous energies so that nothing interferes with the clarity of the current reading. This is called “clearing the Tarot deck,” and shuffling is the easiest way to do this (also, there is something soothing about the physical action of moving the cards around that will help you relax).
As you shuffle, focus on the question for which you need answers. Many people find it helpful to say the question aloud, but this isn’t necessary.
The thing to remember is that there is no wrong way to shuffle your Tarot cards. No matter how you shuffle, it’s the energy and the intention that really matter. That said, you have several options for shuffling. Here are three of our favorites:
For other ideas on how to shuffle your Tarot cards, check out Biddy Tarot’s YouTube video.
Any of these methods can be repeated as many times as you’d like — and even used together. For example, you can use the messy method once before cutting the deck twice. Again, it’s all about what feels right to you and making sure that your question or intention is really at the top of your mind as you concentrate on choosing your card or cards.

We are in an awkward phase when our emotions may seem like obstacles on the road to pleasure. An irritating Sun-Mars alignment makes it difficult to know whether we are coming on too strong or not strong enough. We lose any semblance of objectivity when the Moon enters passionate Scorpio at 9:18 am EDT. Although memories of relationship dissatisfaction surface as the Sun forms a dynamic square with Chiron, our old wounds have the potential to heal.
Revealing a deep dark secret from your past to someone you love seems like a wonderful idea today until you open your mouth to speak. Your intention is to create a deeper level of trust, but your words might have the opposite effect now. Although you are not responsible for anyone else’s reaction to your disclosure, some things may be better left unsaid. Consider your motives before you start to talk. If your actions are truly for the good of the relationship, then it’s probably wise to proceed. If not, pick a topic that is healing rather than hurtful.
You may feel as if you’re bumping up against a wall when someone opposes your plans today. What bothers you most is that the objections seem more emotional than logical, and you don’t know how to respond. Stop and take a few breaths before going any further. Paradoxically, your best offense might be a temporary retreat, giving the other person time to reconsider their position. If your idea makes sense, you will be able to move ahead once the resistance begins to fade. In the final analysis, this delay is actually an opportunity in the making.
A recent setback might have slowed you down, but now you have a possible solution in mind. You’re eager to change direction on your project today, only to lose steam later in the day and wonder if you’re even on the right track. Don’t let self-doubt prevent you from testing your strategy in the real world even if someone’s lingering negativity is still problematic. Strength comes from overcoming the things you once thought to be insurmountable.
You might want to pack your bags and head home, but your persistence at work could pay off sooner than you expect. The strength of your convictions is not in question; however, you prefer to defy authority through passive aggression rather than open conflict. Thankfully, life is not an either/or proposition. You may not have to do battle at all if you firmly hold your goal in sight without faltering. The shortest path to success is not talking about your plans. As Amelia Earhart said, “The most effective way to do it, is to do it.”
Although you might not know how your plans will come together today, you sense that miraculously somehow they will. Your firm belief in your own ability to save the day is your greatest strength now, yet it can be wasted unless you do something about it. Unfortunately, there may be additional people involved in your dreams, but you can’t rely on them at this time. Continue striving to achieve your goals; others will join your cause once they see you mean business.
People are thrilled to work with you today because you appear to be so flexible in your approach to getting things accomplished. However, they may be in for a surprise when they realize how set in your ways you actually are now. Adapting to someone else’s style makes sense sometimes, but obstinately sticking to your plan is currently essential to reach your goals. Don’t compromise for the sake of political expediency. Determination trumps destiny now.
Interactions with others test your core beliefs today as you attempt to find common ground and establish mutual long-term goals. Unfortunately, you may be persuaded to give in too quickly so you can maintain peace and harmony. However, you might not be able to control your anger later if you don’t speak up for your values now. Succinctly state your non-negotiable standards and go from there. Do what is right, not what is easy.
You are standing in your power today which could make others quite uncomfortable. Most people do not want to experience your emotional intensity, especially if it interferes with their progress at work. Nevertheless, it’s not in your best interest to hide your feelings so someone else can avoid a sensitive issue. Naturally, it pays to be kind in your delivery, but honesty is still the best policy. Tell it like it is and let the chips fall as they may.
Your coworkers might be so sweet to you today that you don’t trust anything they say. However, they may be speaking the truth, even if you are clinging to failures that belong in the past. Although a certain amount of skepticism is healthy, it doesn’t have to be the main focus of your current strategy. If someone with a joyful attitude waltzes into your life, dance with him or her until the music stops. Beautiful things happen now when you distance yourself from the shadows of negativity.
It’s easy to be annoyed with someone whose scattered approach at work distracts you from your regular routine. You like to jump in and help if people need it, but not when they are wasting time while expecting you to bail them out. The political dynamics on the job are quite delicate now and need to be sorted with care. Taking the time to talk with a colleague who isn’t carrying their weight could be a catalyst that turns a difficult moment into a positive one. Two-way communication is the key to personal and career success.
It doesn’t matter how charming you seem to everyone else today, you might be unsure of your own self-worth. You could accomplish great things yet still feel empty if you suffer from low self-esteem. Rather than expecting others to provide you with the missing ingredient in your life, search for it within your own heart. You may be quite surprised when you realize lingering emotions tied to a past failure are blocking you from experiencing satisfaction in the present. Sometimes a moment of introspection can drastically change your life.
You may be quite chatty today even if you have little of substance to say. Fortunately, you don’t want to engage just anyone; you need to feel emotionally safe while interacting with another person, whether or not you’re discussing something important. But filling the silence with your endless rambling is not fulfilling for anyone, including you. Don’t wait until you tire of your own voice. Everything in your life is a reflection of your little decisions in each moment. Making different choices produces different results.

Uranus transits in harmony with your Sun this year . Exciting changes and new interests are likely during this period.

You are able to find creative solutions to problems now. Flexibility is the key to success. Your personality is sparkling, which is sure to attract new circumstances and people into your life.
However, Saturn forms an opposition to your Sun from February 2017 forward. Saturn calls upon you to identify the weaker areas of your life, and to fix or strengthen them. Take the time to sort out your life, improve your work, and to become more efficient. Taking a slow and steady approach to life is necessary now. Pushing too hard will likely lead to frustration and setbacks. Take it easy and work on self-improvement. Results are not immediate, but will eventually come and bring healthy rewards.

You have a taste for the offbeat and this energy can bring sudden or unexpected romance into your life, perhaps a scenario that feels like love at first sight.

Advice – reach out, but avoid scattering your energies.
