Returning to What Grounds You

This week, the Queen of Pentacles arrives with a steadying kind of comfort. Her energy encourages us to slow down, breathe and reconnect with the simple things that help us feel held. She brings gentle reassurance that tending to your body, your home and your spirit is sacred work.

The Queen of Pentacles appears when life has been heavy or overwhelming. She reminds us that grounding is not avoidance. It is choosing stability in the middle of everything else. This is a good week to prioritise routines that soothe your nervous system, nourish your body and bring warmth back into your day. Think small comforts, quiet rituals and anything that returns you to yourself.

Let this card guide your pace. Let softness be enough.

Under Pisces Season

We are moving through Pisces season, a time when intuition deepens and emotions rise to the surface. Everything feels more tender, more imaginative and more connected. The Queen of Pentacles offers the balance we need, helping us stay rooted while honouring the flow of feeling and sensitivity that Pisces brings.

It is a supportive time for intuitive work, gentle magic, creative exploration and emotional clarity.

Waning Moon in Sagittarius

The waning Sagittarius moon brings a soft call to release pressure and slow the inner fire. Sagittarius usually inspires movement and exploration, but the waning phase asks us to rest, reflect and let go of what feels too heavy to continue carrying.

This lunar energy reminds us that slowing down is part of the journey, not a step backward.

From My Heart

This week’s reading comes as I am finally out of a long hospital stay. The back injury and the nerve pain have not eased. If anything, they have become heavier and more exhausting. But for the first time in a long while, I feel like I am in the hands of the right doctors. There is hope now, even if the pain is still loud.

Another hospital visit is planned soon, and I am holding onto the possibility of real relief after a year of living in constant discomfort. My mind feels clearer, my spirit feels steadier, and I feel more supported than ever. Through all of this, Cat has been incredible, fighting so hard to make sure I received the help I needed. Our bond feels stronger, more grounded, and deeply protective.

If this card met you at the start of the week, you might also be feeling the pull to slow down, honour what your body is carrying and treat yourself with patience and care.

So with that in mind, ask yourself: Where are you being asked to nourish yourself so you can show up with more steadiness and ease?

This week we choose to care for ourselves, honour our needs and stay rooted in what truly supports us.

With patience,

Racquel
