Hi, I’m Brigit, founder of Biddy Tarot, and this is the Monthly Tarot Card Forecast for August 2016. OK so I’ve drawn our cards for today, and I have Judgment reversed for our Blessings, I’ve got the Eight of Wands reversed for Challenges, and I’ve got the Eight of Cups reversed for our Outcome.

What we have here is we have three reversed cards. Now some people thing reversed cards mean all these problems are going to be coming up, or it’s a lot of negative energy, but I like to see reversed cards often in the frame of internalized energy — you’re actually focusing your energy on yourself.

And we also have two Eights here. Eights are often around mastery, and really getting into our skills and developing our skills. Let’s start with our Blessings for the month of August…

Blessings card: Judgment reversed

I have the Judgment card here. I really see this in the reversed position as kind of like an inner calling. You start to feel like something is emerging within you and something is calling to you, and you have a choice: you can listen to that call, or you can ignore it. The reason why people sometimes ignore that inner call, is because that call will often ask you to make big sacrifices in your life, and make some really, really tough decisions about what is truly important to you. You can see it as, “Wow, this is a sign that I’m slowly being drawn to a different path. So the Blessing this month is that there is an inner calling, but it’s really up to you as to whether you’re going to hear that inner calling and pay attention to it.
