Alright so today I grabbed my deck because I wanted to check how the Taurus Moon energy vibes with the June 21 Summer Solstice tarot pull. Started by clearing my space – wiped the table with lavender spray and lit this chunky beeswax candle my neighbor gave me. You know how Taurus digs cozy atmospheres? Yeah that.
Prepping the Cards
First thing, I shuffled those cards until my wrists kinda hurt. Kept thinking “June 21 Taurus Moon” over and over while shuffling. Dropped three cards when my elbow bumped the coffee cup – typical clumsy me. Laid them out in a simple past-present-future spread face down. Felt heavy earth energy even before flipping them.
The Actual Flip
Turned the first card: Nine of Pentacles. Made total sense for Taurus Moon! Immediately remembered that fat squirrel burying nuts in my yard yesterday. Taurus loves security vibes, and this card screamed “enjoy your damn garden blessings.”
Next card was The Hanged Man. My brain went “Welp.” Taurus HATES waiting, but the moon’s like “chill, let stuff grow.” I almost re-shuffled right there cause patience ain’t my strong suit.
Last card flipped to Three of Cups. Totally got the Summer Solstice party energy! Realized I’d been skipping friend hangs to stress about work. Card practically yelled “Celebrate stupid!”
Making Sense of the Mess
Stared at these three like they’d grown tentacles. How’s relaxed Nine + stuck Hanged Man + party Cups even connect? Then it clicked:
- Pentacles says “You’ve built stability – enjoy it NOW”
- Hanged Man whispers “But don’t rush the next move”
- Chips in Cups with “Also go hug your people this solstice!”
Real Life Test Drive
Took the cards’ advice literally. Did three Taurus-y things before lunch:
- Actually tasted my coffee instead of gulping it (Nine of Pentacles energy)
- Didn’t panic when client delayed feedback (Hanged Man practice)
- Texted buddies for rooftop drinks at solstice sunset (Three of Cups win)
Honestly? Best damn Tuesday in weeks. Taurus Moon gave permission to slow down AND celebrate. Tarot didn’t “predict” squat – just called out what I was ignoring. Still chewing over why Hanged Man showed up for present position though… maybe my tomato plants know.
