202. The Medicine of the Queens Reversed, Part One

Whether a symbol of completion, an indication of stuckness, or a signal for revised action, all card reversals bring medicine. When we greet a reversed Queen card, it can be a deep, impassioned plea from our very soul to pay attention, and come home to some aspect of ourselves that has been requesting our presence. In Part One of this two part series on the Queens reversed, we will dive into Queen of Pentacles and Queen of Swords, exploring what they mean, and how we can work with them. We also -- of course -- dig into what they invite us into when they show up reversed, and how we can respectfully, compassionately heed that call.  CW: mentions of parenthood, systemic racism, trauma, ancestral trauma, unpaid labor that is regularly asked of folks of color, shared labor in parenting/co-parenting, light mentions of diet culture, fatphobia, and intuitive eating.  Read the transcript for this episode here: www.tarotforthewildsoul.com/episodes-transcripts/ep-202-the-medicine-of-queens-reversed-part-one LINKS: Got Q's?
