Tarot message for this week:

10 of Cups     8 of Cups     5 of Wands

Socially, you want community, you want to be around people who “get you”. Finding your people is sometimes an undertaking, especially if you notice your family of origin doesn’t create the type of community you crave. But you know what? You can attract the community you need.

Be open, lead with your heart, but remember to create boundaries where appropriate. You only have so much energy to share with other people in this world, so make your choices wisely.

The advice?

Let go of toxic relationships, take responsibility for how you have used your emotional opportunities.

By taking stock and being honest, what’s the worst that can happen? You might choose to “work it out” with the people you are in conflict with, but be prepared to let go of some control. Handle your own piece of the emotional puzzle and allow others to handle their piece.

It’s ok to walk away from conflict; work with your strengths. You can’t control the actions of others but you can control your own.

Some questions to consider:

On an emotional level, who are you responsible for? Who do you need to establish emotional boundaries with? By addressing your fears about the relationship, how does it empower you to make choices that are right for you? How can you take a step back and deal with your part of the relationship?

You will find a solution by handling the details of your own life. If someone doesn’t “get you” or your method, it’s on them. You’ve decided to walk away from the heat.
