Things that go bump in the night… After a hellacious Mercury Retrograde which seems to just keep on giving, the appearance of this card is not much of a surprise. When you go to bed at night no doubt you have a great deal on your mind. With everything going sideways for weeks on end, it is easy to become jaded and convince yourself it will all go wrong again no matter what you do. Today is actually meant to be a pleasant day which can be enjoyed, so having a restful night sleep is in your best interest. Also bear in mind Neptune is stationing to go direct in three days, and all manner of dreams can be off the charts at this time. Pay attention to what the context is, but do not allow your mind to run away to places it does not need to visit.

The 9 of Swords is a card of worry, sleepless nights, and nightmares. It is important to remember thoughts are things and if you think negative you will beget negative. For earliest possible access to my Tarot Card of the Day, download the free PodBean app from your AppStore, or follow me across your favorite podcast platforms.
