Happy Full Moon!! So this full moon is called the harvest/corn moon because it's all about gathering what you've sown through the year. We'll have another on October 1st. October gets 2 full moons this year. But back to ours. This moon will appear very large as it's the closest to the earth right now. If it's clear out make sure you go take a look. This full moon is also in Pisces so if you've been feeling rather emotional, creative or just want to run and hide this is why. Don't be mad at yourself if you get super emotional over your dog coming to greet you or your cat in the litter box it's just the moon affecting Pisces. A great night to get creative as well. So go out and enjoy. Since it's a full moon I thought I'd do our first monthly reading today. Look below!!

September Tarot Reading:
Temperance(reversed):
Well of course things will still be off balance this month as long as Covid is around this won't change too much. But just make sure you are not letting yourself be a push over with all matters it should always be give and take.
Priest(reversed):
Feeling a bit rebellious this month. Get out there and say what you need to say. Speak up for yourself and be proud of who you are. This is not a time to be meek and generic show the world why you're you.
Wheel of Fortune: 
This is great as some luck will come your way. It won't really be planned just pretty random so pay attention. Also it's a good time to ask about job options, promotions, raises and even looking for jobs. Sometimes people pop into our lives so be on the look out for someone new.
Lovers:
This not only can mean that you'll meet someone wonderful but it can be you rekindling the relationship you have. As well as there's options open to you and you will come upon them and have to choose your path. As there will be multiple.
Hermit:
Make sure you get that time to yourself that you need. It's your best thinking time and with the world like it is a little alone time can be a good thing. Also treat yourself, hit the spa, buy something nice for yourself. Nothing wrong with a little me time. 

Choosing your tarot deck is pretty important. If you have no connection to it then it will not work for you. There are many times of decks that are out there now, it's quite amazing the choices that you can find now. As well as regular decks, oracle decks and even angel decks. I personally use several decks, standard ones, featuring anime, steampunk, fairies, dark fairies, round ones, kitsune oracle cards and regular playing cards. 
First off you should pick ones that you have an interest in. Because they are all part of your personality if you aren't into ancient Egyptians then don't get an Egyptian deck. Pick something you love something that will help you connect more. Also decide what you like more a Rider Waite deck or the oracle style which can be very different. I choose to use both depending on the situation or if I want a different perspective. 
When choosing a deck if you can at least go to a store and touch them this is really helpful. I've found that when I can touch them I get a light electrical energy a tingle if they are a set that I connect with. If I don't feel it then I don't even look further. Unfortunately, you can't do this when buying them online. That's why I say you need to pick a deck that you identify with. I've definitely have gotten a few duds buying ones online I thought I would like. They still work but I'm not as connected as my other decks. So do try to touch them when you can it'll save you a great deal of money. 
Once you pick your deck go through them touching every single card connecting to it. Say a little prayer that you see the truth and that you are able to help yourself and others with what you see. At that point you are ready to begin. If your cards ever feel clogged like you're getting muddled information then hold them in your left hand and knock on them with your right to kick out the excess energy, then you go through them saying your prayer again so they're ready to go. 

I do hope this helps anyone out there. And please feel free to ask me anything. Drop me an email at shellystarot@outlook.com especially with any ideas for topics for the blog.
