Iris X Reading of the Week/Week beginning on 3/30/26:
Hello to the friends of Iris X Readings! I apologize for my absence, I was injured in a way that knocked me down. I am getting back to doing readings; either on Zoom or the phone, depending on how I feel! I shuffled the second Tarot deck that I ever worked with- an old, comfortable friend. The Visconti Sforza is not a typical second deck to work with. It is the oldest Tarot deck that you can get in print, and is not easy to work with. I saw it in a shop in downtown Brattleboro in 1999, and had to have it. I shuffled the cards and asked for a reading for someone who will see this post. I never know who it will be for until it is posted. Read on and see if it's for you or someone that you know.
The reading begins with The Moon, and if this is your reading, you may be feeling uncertain about what is going to happen next. The Moon can inspire us to dream or make us feel anxious. It all depends on You. The person that this reading is for is feeling tossed about by the currents and unsure of how to move forward. It probably feels like nothing makes sense. But, with The Moon, there is a cycle and pattern to everything happening right now. You may be feeling nervous, but there is sense to the chaos that you may not yet be seeing.
The IV of Wands appears next, showing really good connections that you have in the world around you. While you feel adrift, there is a lot to anchor yourself to. Whether it be a romantic relationship, good friends, or community collaborators- you know that you are not alone. There are people that can do things that you can't, and it is always wise to ask for help if you feel lost. There may be someone there to take your hand and work with you.
The Star is the next card in the reading and shows healing in the future. There are a lot of things that have felt frozen in your life. It can feel sometimes like the current situation is a constant, and not a passing experience. With The Star, you start to feel like yourself again. You feel creative, inspired and ready to move forward. What was previously frozen in your life feels like it is unthawing so that you can move forward with ease. You are healing step by step; and the things that you thought were permanent end up being a temporary phase.
The key to the situation is The Chariot. Even if you have felt like you are spinning your wheels and getting nowhere, the fact is that there is purposeful movement towards success in the future. With The Chariot, you focus your mind and energy on something and reach your goals. Things are not as stuck as you thought in the past, and you are moving towards accomplishing your goals. The key is to just keep moving. Don't let yourself be stuck- you have a lot of energy and momentum working with you!
Here's what I see. If this is your reading, you have truly felt lost. One day you feel like you know what you are doing, and the next you feel like you are being tossed about by currents that you don't understand. But you are not alone, and there is a pattern to what is happening in your life. It may be cyclical, but that means that it is in the process of changing. You will start to feel better and more like yourself in no time. You are on a path of healing and wellness at this point, and what has felt stuck in your life is moving. Things that you could not make sense of will begin to be clear and understandable. The most important thing is to remember that you have made a lot of progress and that you Are moving forward. The Chariot may not get where it is going all at once- it is very often a journey! But the movement forward is bringing you closer and closer to accomplishing the goals that you have. Lean on your community, whoever they may be, and don't stop moving forward. You will win the race as The Chariot- even if you don't think that you can.
