Tarot TiMe: September VIbes

prioritize patience
September Vibes

We’re rolling into September on the back of momentum and success in our personal affairs. This year has revealed truths about ourselves and our relationships and asked us if this is the path we want to continue. We should feel validated in our emotional vibe checks, and if you’ve done the work, we’ve had the chance to redefine the nature of our projects (and relationships) and the meaning we ascribe to them. This is where the universe comes in to put those convictions to the test! You’re up, and if there’s one thing clear in September, we had all better make patience a priority.

What to Know
Summary for the month

We’ve accomplished so much this year, and it’s not over. Looking back, you can probably pinpoint moments where you’ve been in your flow state. You had clear objectives, made the decisions, and took action. The results of your efforts are undeniable. Whether they were outright successes or bigger learning moments in the form of challenges, we’re here now and have a glimpse of our long-term potential. We may be tempted to take shortcuts, but this is where we need to reassess. Ready or not, a test is coming to see how well we’ve set the foundations of our plans and our boundaries. Our ticket to continue progressing is to be patient, very patient. Not everyone in our environment will be able to exhibit that virtue as the pressure intensifies. A patient approach now will provide insight that improves your ability to be agile in the future.

How to Flow
Counsel for the journey

When the same cards appear in a reading, the meaning is amplified. Patience. To cultivate patience, we could use some creativity at an emotional level. At the beginning of the month, we cross paths with the three Graces. They inspire us to approach the world with beauty, charm, and grace. Empathy is a natural fit here that can also help us to expand our ability to be patient and gracious. As we near the end of the month, it may feel that time is standing still, and there seem to be airs of obstinacy in all of our challenges. It’s no use complaining. Take a deep breath and channel patience and empathy into your environment to ride out the lags.

Where to Grow
​The path to evolution

Let’s not run before we can walk. It can be frustrating to meet resistance, but instead of lashing out and feeding the frustration, we should consider taking baby steps toward our goal because at least we will be moving. Yes, it may feel like a concession, especially when we’ve already identified where we want to go and are ready to hit the ground running. In this case, building up to where you want to be is a safer bet than skipping some steps to build higher and faster, but ultimately, you’re on shaky ground.
