Monthly Tarot Forecast for November 2015

Hi, I'm Brigit Esselmont, Professional Tarot Reader and teacher.

I am here today to share with you the Tarot card forecast for November, 2015.

As always, I have drawn three cards for us to look at the Blessings, the Challenges, and what we can do to this month, to make it a wonderful month.

So let’s just get straight into it.

The first card that I drew for our Opportunities and our Blessings, remember, is the Five of Pentacles.

Now you might be looking at this card going, “What!? There are beggars. They are in the snow. They are injured.”

It doesn’t look so positive, right?

And if you know about the Tarot then you also know that sometimes the Five of Pentacles is about loss and poverty. And you might be wondering, ‘Well, why are we seeing this as a blessing? How is poverty a blessing?’

Well that is an interesting question in itself actually. Sometimes when we go through some rough times, it can actually be a blessing-in-disguise. That is certainly one way to look at it.

But, on a more intuitive level, when I drew this card, the thing that came to my mind immediately, was that we have a blessing this month, in November, to help others – to help other people who are in need. You might already know someone that is going through a really rough time, and perhaps they are feeling isolated, or, literally, out in the cold – because these folks are in the snow here. There is someone out there who needs your help, and you have a real opportunity and a real blessing to be the one who is there to help them.

It might be as simple as checking in on your next-door neighbour and making sure that they are okay and having a conversation; or even taking a bit pot of soup over.

It might be going down to the local Neighbourhood House and cooking up a big meal for the people who live there.

It might be donating some of your time, particularly as we are coming up to Christmas time and the holiday period, you may find a way to help those in need as well.

So there is a really nice big opportunity here to help someone who is in need and really does need and deserve your help.

Very important!

Now, our Challenges for this month, and I have drawn theSeven of Cups reversed.

In this card you can see – and I will just turn it upright – you can see this man and he is looking at all these cups and they all have different gifts in them. Some of them are nice gifts – there is sort of a crown, andsome treasure – all these nice things; but there is also a scary looking dragon, a ghost, and a snake. And what this card tells us is that not every opportunity out there is what we think it is going to be. But, layering on top of that, when this card is reversed it can also show that we are a little bit hesitant or confusedabout which opportunity we need to go with.

And, in fact, you might be presented with a number of different opportunities this month, but there is kind of like a point of indecision about which one to choose, because it is like: If I go down Path A,is that going to do everything that I want it to? Or should I maybe be doing Path B?

And instead of taking action, you might actually find yourself going, “I just don’t know which one to choose, so I am not going to choose anything!”

And you get stuck that way.

So sometimes we just have to make a choice, even if we don’t know for sure what will be revealed; but sometimes it is better just to get on with it, and make a move forward, and deal with it later on.

So, if you are facing a lot of choices, just think:   What is the best one? With all the information I have right now, which one can I just move forward with?

Now our final card for this month, about how we can make the most out of this month, isthe Ten of Cups reversed.

Now, upright the Ten of Cups is all about love, family, harmony, relationships, everything just working gorgeously. You can see this beautiful family dancing under the rainbows with their home in the background. It looks like an absolutely gorgeous place to be.

Yes, it does appear in the reverse position, but to me this is a sign of kind of like an internal gratitude for everything that you have in your life. There might be points where you think, ‘Oh man, today is such a drag!’

Maybe you missed out on something that you thought that was going to be available to you, but now it is not.

But what I really want you to do to make the most out of this month is to think: Okay, even in those tough times, what can I be grateful for?

What relationships am I most grateful for?

Where is there love in my life that I can connect with and really draw on that energy to make things better again – to find that rainbow again in your life?

Because it is there, and you may start to realise that if you do – even if you do those Gratitude Lists – like three things you are most grateful for– every time you go to bed, write down three things you are most grateful for, and you will find that over time you will realise that you have got it pretty good. You do have everything that you need around you.

And, particularly if you are starting to really draw on all that wonderful, abundant energy, and realise that you are – I want to say gifted, but I mean more blessed – blessed in some way,then you know that you can also help others because you are so well off yourself. You are rich and wealthy. AndI don’t just mean in terms of money. You are rich and wealthy in terms of the energy that is around you and the love that is around you. And you can take all of that and help people who are in need.

So I think this month might be quite a nice charitable month.

I really encourage you to get out there and to help those people who are in need.

Don’t dwell to long about which is the best opportunity to go out and do some charitable work. Just take one and see how it goes. You can always do another one later down the track.

So I hope you have a wonderful, wonderful month ahead, and I shall see you very soon.
