Autumn Equinox card spread 
Collective reading with the Gaian Tarot
Card 1 – What’s falling away?
11 ~ JUSTICE
“Affirmation ~ I strive to be just and fair in my dealings with others.”
– Gaian Tarot
This is where the rubber hits the road, the chickens come home to roost and the scales of justice begin to balance once again. This goes beyond just the social laws of societies and nations, it is the universal law of cause and effect—karmic balance. Each of us has an internal truth detector—by tuning in and calibrating the scales within, we are able to gauge whether our actions and reactions are making our hearts lighter or heavier.
So as we each weigh all of that out on a personal level, we may see old patterns, relationships or ways of being falling away. Justice asks us to consider the consequences of our actions with each choice that we make. We can offer healing to the earth by being a living example of justice.
All that being said, at a most literal level, when it comes to this fall, get out and VOTE!!
Card 2 ~ What does this create room for?
FOUR OF AIR
“Affirmation ~ I take time to get away to my own little nest where I can incubate new ideas and dreams.”
– Gaian Tarot
As the sun sets earlier and the nights grow longer, there is room for self-care. Make time and create space for rest and relaxation. You are incubating great things! You may feel very protective of these ideas and dreams of yours and wish to protect them, keeping them nestled safe and secure. You may feel wary of those who may wish to snatch away your time and energy, including your own ego self—keep your energy clear and your boundaries firm and strong. You may also benefit from journaling and having and a daily self-care practice.
Card 3 ~ What will be harvested this fall?
EIGHT OF EARTH
“Affirmation ~ I cultivate patience as I learn, so that I may share my gifts with others.”
– Gaian Tarot
The process of building a safe and secure nest takes time and skill. Each egg must incubate and hatch at its own pace. In this same way, learning a new skill takes time and devotion. It requires practice and cultivates patience. Perhaps a mentor or teacher can help you to develop skills and hone your craft.
In turn, you have wisdom and knowledge to share with others. This sharing of gifts is the rhythm of giving and receiving. When you are doing the work of your heart, you are attuned to the vibration of pure joy and fulfillment. Trust that the fruits of your labors will be abundant!
Yay!!!!!
