Queen of Swords Energy✨ Clarity, Truth & Powerful Decisions Ahead

Queen of Swords Energy✨ Clarity, Truth & Powerful Decisions Ahead

The Queen of Swords arrives this week with one message: get clear. In this episode of the It’s Giving Mystical podcast, we explore the energy moving us out of emotional fog, distraction, fantasy, and indecision — and into radical clarity, truth, and self-authority. This is a threshold week. A week for powerful decisions. A week for cutting through the noise and asking: What is actually true for me now? Kirsten unpacks the transition out of the Ace of Wands and Hanged Man energy of May and into the potent frequencies of June: The Lovers and The Tower. Together, these cards point toward major choices, energetic expansion, and the restructuring of systems that can no longer hold who you’re becoming. This episode explores: * The Queen of Swords as the archetype of internal authority * Why clarity can feel both liberating and uncomfortable * Emotional fantasy vs. aligned truth * The habits, dynamics, and distractions that may need to end * Gemini energy, communication, and precision * Why June’s energy is asking for decisive movement * The paradox of discipline and ease If you’ve been craving clarity, direction, or the courage to finally move differently, this episode is for you. ✨ Listen to the end for insight into June’s powerful Lovers + Tower energy and the deep transformations already beginning to unfold. #tarot #tarotpodcast #queenofswords #weeklytarotreading #tarotforecast #spiritualpodcast #mysticism #shadowwork #selfdevelopment #geminiseason #thelovers #thetower #spiritualgrowth #tarotcommunity #itsgivingmystical

The Hanged Man ⚡ The Shift Locks In/Your Body Knows

Something shifts this week. In this episode of It’s Giving Mystical, we move from the fiery awakening of the Ace of Wands into the deep reversal energy of The Hanged Man — a card of surrender, truth, attunement, and irreversible perspective shifts. Kirsten explores what happens when the body begins recognizing truth before the mind can explain it. This episode is a meditation on authenticity, desire, discernment, nervous system resonance, and learning to trust the quiet knowing inside yourself. There’s a strong theme here around reversal: What can no longer be sacrificed. What can no longer be desecrated. What your body simply refuses to abandon anymore. This conversation weaves together tarot, somatics, embodiment, desire, revolution, Zelda references, truth as resonance, and the strange sacredness of becoming more fully yourself. ✨ Themes explored: * The Hanged Man tarot meaning * Reversal, surrender & energetic shifts * Truth as a somatic experience * The body recognizing alignment * Desire, appetite & authenticity * Why “feeling good” matters spiritually * Nervous system discernment in relationships * Sacred embodiment & personal revolution * Trusting what you know without explaining it If this episode resonates, share it with someone moving through a major energetic shift. #thehangedman #tarotpodcast #spiritualpodcast #weeklytarotreading #embodiment #healingjourney #consciousness #mysticism #tarotreader #personalgrowth #divinefeminine #authenticity #itsgivingmystical

You’re Not Dead Yet: Ace of Wands Energy

The Ace of Wands arrives this week like a spark returning to the body. A remembering. A reawakening. A reminder that you are not done yet. In this episode of It’s Giving Mystical, we move through the energetic arc from the Ten of Wands to the Seven of Wands and into the life-giving warmth of the Ace of Wands — the tarot card of vitality, desire, inspiration, creativity, sensuality, and renewed life force. Kirsten explores what it means to release outdated identities, soften scarcity around joy and love, and open the gates to more aliveness. This conversation weaves together tarot, embodiment, grief, motherhood, boundaries, desire, nervous system safety, and the deep permission to feel good again. If something in your life is beginning to awaken… this episode is for you. ✨ Themes explored: * Taurus New Moon energy & “new beginnings” * The Ace of Wands as vitality, eros, and inspiration * Releasing old identities and scarcity thinking * Boundaries, openness, and safe connection * Feeling more alive in your body * Motherhood, grief, tenderness & nervous system regulation * Why pleasure and aliveness are sacred * Learning to trust there is more available for you If this episode resonates, share it with someone walking through their own reawakening. #tarotpodcast #aceofwands #taurusnewmoon #spiritualpodcast #tarotreading #mysticism #selfdevelopment #embodiment #divinefeminine #healingjourney #personalgrowth #energyupdate #consciousness #itsgivingmystical

Seven of Wands Reversed: Opening the Gates | Weekly Tarot Reading

There’s something fascinating happening collectively right now… a strange nostalgia for the quiet of quarantine, for sourdough and slow mornings and being forced back into ourselves. In this week’s episode of the It's Giving Mystical, we explore what that longing might actually be pointing toward: the body’s pacing, the sacredness of ordinary life, and the deep human need for space to simply be.  The tarot card for the week ahead is the reversed Seven of Wands — a card of boundaries, energetic space, and the tension between self-protection and connection. This week asks: what happens when you stop fighting so hard to defend your peace and begin trusting the safety you’ve already built? What if the gates could open a little?  We talk about hypervigilance, nervous system contraction, embodiment, authenticity, and the possibility of letting yourself be seen without abandoning yourself. There’s a softer invitation moving through this week — one that says you don’t need to over-control everything in order to remain safe. You may actually be ready for more connection, more spaciousness, and more ease than you realize.  ✨ In this episode: * Why people are suddenly nostalgic for lockdown * The body’s relationship to safety, pacing, and spaciousness * Reversed Seven of Wands energy for the week ahead * Hypervigilance vs. grounded boundaries * Opening the gates to connection without losing yourself * Somatic awareness and tracking tension in the body * Letting yourself be fully seen in your uniqueness * Why “safe” and “connected” no longer need to oppose one another If this episode resonates, you can explore deeper work with me inside Mystic Rising or reach out about private sessions and Shaman School. ✨ Connect with me: Instagram: @givingmystical Website: Giving Mystical [https://www.givingmystical.com/?utm_source=chatgpt.com] #tarot #sevenofwands #tarotpodcast #spirituality #embodiment #nervoussystem #healingjourney #mysticism #archetypes #weeklytarotreading #collectiveenergy #selfdevelopment #tarotreader #energyupdate #sacredfeminine #podcast #shadowwork #intuition #consciousness #personalgrowth

The Hierophant & The Devil: Sacred vs. Profane, Inversion & Awakening

This month feels big. Like… quietly revolutionary. We’re working with the energy of the The Hierophant and The Devil—two archetypes that, on the surface, couldn’t be more opposite. One represents the sacred, the institutional, the “this is the way.” The other holds the body, desire, instinct, the things we’ve been taught to question or even reject. But what I’m seeing for May is something different. These energies are inverting. What we’ve been told is sacred… may not be. What we’ve dismissed as profane… might actually be where the life is. There’s something here about holding opposites—really holding them—without rushing to resolve them. And in that tension, something begins to shift. Something new emerges. A deeper truth, maybe. Or just a more honest one. This shows up collectively—in our relationship to institutions, authority, and what we’ve trusted without question. And it shows up personally—in our bodies, our desires, our choices, and the quiet ways we’ve outsourced our own knowing. One of the strongest threads this month is the body. Not as something to manage or override, but as something sacred. Intelligent. In conversation with you at all times. There’s an invitation here to listen differently—to let your body lead, even when it contradicts what you’ve been taught you “should” want or do. This might also bring up questions around desire. What you actually want… versus what you learned to want. And whether those are even the same thing. There’s a kind of unraveling happening. But it doesn’t feel destructive—it feels like truth. Like something that’s been upside down for a long time finally turning right side up. So for May, the practice is simple (but not easy): Stay with the tension. Get curious about what you believe is sacred—and why. And most importantly, listen to your body. It knows. Zodiac readings begin about two-thirds of the way through for each sign.
