Steemit Tarot Tuesday Blog Graphic for the week of May 22nd, 2018.jpg

If you haven't heard yet, it's official - there's now an intro for the Hive account@steemittarot account.

Introducing the Steemit Tarot community!

So, don't forget to check out the feed over at Hive account@steemittarot or the hash tag #tarottuesday for other awesome offerings from amazing Steemians.

Now here's my offering for the upcoming week, beginning today, May 22nd, 2018 ...

Happy Tarot Tuesday, Steemians!

Here's a brief rundown on how I put this reading together every week -

I use my very old & extremely well-loved Universal Waite Smith Tarot Deck to draw the cards. Then, because the cards are definitely not ready for their closeup, I photograph the cards using my stand-in Radiant Deck. Oh, and yes - it's a new picture of the back of the cards every week.

Now for my reading. This is how it works - pick the card (or cards) that you're drawn to, then scroll to the bottom of this post for the card reveal and my short interpretation of what to expect in the upcoming week. If more than one strikes your fancy, go for it! In fact, I've been told there are some who pick all three cards each week, and use this as a mini past/present/future reading! 😊

Now that you're all set with your choice, it's time to scroll to the bottom of the post for the big reveal.

And as you're scrolling through, please enjoy this musical interlude from one of the many extremely talented musicians here on Steemit. I discovered this particular song (and Steemian) thanks to the Steemit Open Mic Week 85 winners post. As soon as I heard the first strains of the uke, I knew this was the song for this week!

So without further ado, here is Goodnight, My Love, Goodnight by Hive account@lillywilton

LYRICS

I like moonlight in the mornings.
But the nighttime suits me, too.
But you said mornings are just for sunshine,
And since that day, I lost my way to you.

So I tried singing a little louder -
A ballad for the morning moon to hear.
And everyone around loved how the music sounded.
But you had headphones in your ears.

Take the time you need.
Take the blanket that you like.
But there's a spot in the bed in case you change your mind...
Goodnight, my love, goodnight.

Goosebumps, am I right? 😊

For the rest of the lyrics, and the lowdown on the story behind the song, be sure to visit her post Steemit OpenMic Week 85 - "Goodnight, My Love, Goodnight" (original).

Okay, now it's time for the big card reveal. Your message for this week is...

Drum roll, please and thank you

This!

1. Five of Cups

Snap out of it. You've had a run of bad luck, and it seems like every time you turn around, something (or someone) is knocking over a cup of your happiness. While you're not wrong, you're forgetting something important - you have plenty of other cups still standing. Focusing on what's gone wrong, and what you've lost, won't stand the cups back up again and make the water reappear. Voice your disappointment, give yourself a little time to wallow, then pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again.

2. Wheel of Fortune

Lady Luck is smiling! Oh wait - that should be, "The Goddess Who Must Not Be Named."grin Regardless, your luck is changing! Not only are good things heading your way, but this card is a great reminder that when things aren't going as you hoped, just be patient for the wheel to turn back around again. Stay as positive as possible, focus on the bright side of things, then (and this is the most important thing), take some steps to make a change. Soon enough, the wheel will spin back around and you'll appreciate being up all the more for having been down.

3. Page of Cups

The Look of Love. I think of this as the Romeo card – time to fall in love, either with a person, a story idea, a creative project, or something of that sort. You may also be receiving a message of love from someone – maybe not as overt as flowers and chocolate, but something to show they care. It could be as simple as a bringing you a fresh cup of coffee, or sharing a Facebook meme, that shows they are thinking of you. Artistically, it's that moment of sudden inspiration, when you see your project in a new light, or a bizarre-yet-brilliant idea presents itself - go with it.
