This is a great time of year to acknowledge what we’ve learnt. 💜

Pulled #TheSun #tarot on a sunny, cold day. I have drawn this a number of times in late 2025. Clarity, joy, success, happiness. Bask in the glow of your own authentic self ☀️. It is never too late to find happiness!

Whether you are celebrating or not today, peace to you and yours.

Patience, patience, and more patience. That's #7ofPentacles energy. Honor the pauses that happen organically in your projects. Take time to strategize and reflect on progress. #tarot

Today's message is from #WildWoodTarot. #TheBlastedOak shows a wild fall-similar to #TheTower. This energy represents a significant paradigm shift. I just finished reading "Just a Thought" by Dr. Amy Johnson- learned that my anxiety and imposter syndrome are not the real me. Give it a read! #tarot

I woke up sick (as typically happens at the end of each semester) felt drawn to the #WildWoodTarot deck, & drew #7ofStones. What a gorgeous healing card. Make👏time👏for👏healing👏. Rest & recovery aren't respected enough in academia. I need to practice BOTH during & after the semester. #tarot

#TheEmperor has planning and ruling energy. Be strategic if you want to reach your goals. Do you have a 5-year plan? My cats wants to know. #tarot

The #9ofPentacles has this nice, celebratory energy. Bask in this energy a little; enjoy what you've accomplished. Do you celebrate each publication or the end of a semester? If not, you should! #tarot

A little out of focus, but #5ofPentacles indicates poverty of some kind. Career-wise, ask for help if you need it! If you are junior faculty, look for a mentor. If you're senior faculty, offer your mentorship. Let's transform academia by paying it forward; not leaving anyone out in the cold. #tarot

The #WheelofFortune card reminds us that life is always in motion. Things are good? Cherish the moments. Things are bad? This will pass. Try to "go with the flow." #tarot

The #QueenofSwords #tarot card emits an energy combining intellect, wisdom, & perceptiveness. Decision-making should be based on facts, not emotion. At the end of the semester, with students clamoring for better grades & makeup work, I try and keep my emotions (exasperation!) out of it.

These days I DNF *more* books than I finish. My time is precious😁

#3ofWands has a clear connection with #2ofWands. You made a decision and now move forward- the upcoming obstacles and opportunities are more clear. I've been working on a new research path that is a big departure from what I've been doing the past 6 years. Exciting/scary (excary!). #tarot

Sometimes you need to leave-that's the message from #6OfSwords. I had tenure & a mortgage, friends & relatives in the area, a partner w/ a good job, but I had to get out of a department that was bullying & belittling me. Making the decision to leave was difficult but I'm glad I did it. #tarot

Death to what holds you back! Bury the bad habits or the inability to believe in yourself- death to the limiting factors that you've let dictate your life. #tarot

The #8ofPentacles card suggests it takes many hours of focused practice to master a skill, such as academic writing. Consider your writing as practice and not as something you should automatically know how to do. #tarot
November 24, 2025 at 8:38 PM
The #SunTarot has risen from the deck again! Joy and clarity to all of you as we embark upon the final weeks of the semester here in the southern states. #tarot

#9OfSwords has all the feels today. My spouse has been in & out of the hospital for weeks, we don't know what's wrong. I'm thankful for a flexible job that allows me to be gone from work when needed. This card reflects negative thoughts, but also it's a message to reach out for help. #tarot

Happy Friday! Today I am grateful for me the life I have. It's so easy to be grateful for external blessings and forgetting that we are a blessing.

Gratitarot is the creation of Carrie Mallon.

REST. How are you going to get some rest this weekend? I am avoiding email, watching football, knitting, and reading. We have to learn how to be regularly & spectacularly unproductive. See the #4OfSwords card and my cat sleeping for inspo. #tarot

It's the Working Mom archetype, #QueenOfPentacles, taking care of her material world & those she loves. I know self-care is nearly a cliche, but this Queen reminds you to take care of yourself: Carve out some solitude, enjoy the sunshine through the trees, plan out your week, read a book #tarot
