December 2020: Month Ahead Spread
December 2020
At the beginning of each month, I’ll pull a few cards and muse a little on what the month ahead may hold.
The spread I’m using this month is from @modernseertarot on Instagram - this one really resonated with me, it covers a lot of ground and allows for a bit of introspection (which I’m feeling would be great for the end of what has been a super challenging and different year!).
Here is a little peep of the spread and what each card position represents:
The fantastic Month Ahead spread from @modernseertarot
And here is the spread I pulled using the beautiful Oriens Tarot:
Dec 2020 Month Ahead Spread - Using the beautiful Oriens Tarot (paired with grounding garnet).
Current situation - Queen of Cups: Movement and progress has been slow, but steady - you’ve had to trust your instincts in order to know how to progress. Both for yourself and for others. You’ve been a rock for others and your empathy and caring approach is so appreciated, even if no one has specifically told you.
Theme for the month - Three of Wands: You’ve worked so hard on something, you’re super prepared. And this month its time to shiiiiiiine! Things are starting to happen that you’ve been planning for - so exciting! But even more exciting, is the prospect of new opportunities that will keep you on the path of expansion and growth.
What will we accomplish? - Ten of Wands: Everything (ha ha ha!). You’ve committed to a lot of things! But be wary that you’re not burning out or working yourself too hard - working hard for future gain is admirable, but working smarter rather than harder could be the way to get things done without sacrificing your own wellbeing.
What should we avoid? - The Moon (one of my favourite cards in this deck): Deception and deceptive behaviours, situations that cause anxiety and stress. Leading into the holidays is a stressful time - but if we know this, we can do things to minimise or avoid those situations.
What should we embrace? - Knight of Swords: Our ambition, our belief in ourselves to achieve what we want to achieve - and know that we have the intellect and determination to make things happen.
What obstacle will we face? - Five of Wands: Eeeeek, there may be some people who don’t agree with what you are trying to do or are not willing to help. You’ll have to be creative in how you navigate conflict this month.
Where to find support - Seven of Pentacles: You’ve worked hard and you have a few resources and contacts squirrelled away for a rainy day. This month could be the time to dip into that nest egg to support you in your December endeavours.
What action do we need to take this month? - The Hanged One: The action you need to take is to pause and reflect BEFORE you take action! Flip things around and look at a situation from all perspectives. By doing this, the action you eventually decide to take will be well considered and successful.
Advice and encouragement - Six of Cups: December is often a time where we remember past Christmas’s - amazing family holidays, sentimental presents (that you may still have), and great childhood memories. Happy times. Soak in and enjoy those nostalgic memories - although you’re going to be busy chasing your goals and dreams this month, sometimes looking back makes you even more grateful about how far you’ve come already, and even more determined to keep moving forward.
I hope you enjoyed this reading! I certainly enjoyed pulling it together - it felt gooooood!
If you are keen for more, make sure to let me know, but also check my Instagram account @moonamaia - I do a weekly Z(odiac) reading using decks that are available on this website and other readings as the mood takes me.
Until next month!
