#Dailytarot Temperance rests in the recent past, reversed Emporer in the present, reversed Mother (Queen) of Pentacles in the near future. My explanations of the card meanings in replies and yes other readers are welcome to chime in their insights. #cosopagans #Generalreading
Temperance indicates healing and renewal, The imagery of the card depicts a calm heron peaceful in between fire and water. This card symbolizes the question of being a self-moderator focus on cooperation compromise and if you have been excessive in one aspect of your life practice self-restraint. This is in the recent past unless you found a way to actually found healing and balancing yourself with moderating for a little Harmony in your life.
The reversed emperor indicates lack of protection, stability and possibly an absence of a father figure. One side is protective decisive and truly stable. However, with the sitting in reverse, it's indicating the opposite. This card is literal points to paternal relationships in your life. With it sitting in reverse, it's a good time to reach out to your father figure. This indicates reconnecting to a point of view that stands strong and tall and knows just what to do. Listen to your instincts.
The mother of pentacles in reverse indicates the lack of the domestic, love, and patience in your life. This card indicates That there is a lack in home cleanliness, possibly tasks that need to be done but have been put off for one reason or another. It would be good to schedule time to focus on the home your loved ones and taking some time to really be patient with yourself. It's okay to get distracted from time to time. Don't beat yourself up about it.
Now this is just a general read. So, anyone is welcome to add their voices to this on what insights they pick up from the cards themselves.

I know exactly fuck all about Tarot but I am reading these with a lot of interest - and today, a lump in my throat because I have been missing my Dad who died in 2017
@PaganMother
And initially instead of typing "I have been missing my Dad" I typed "I have been my Dad" and now I really want to cry
@publickovacs It's okay to miss him. I'm sure he misses you too. Just because he doesn't walk next to you or have a phone number to be called, doesn't mean he's not with you. When you find some time to yourself, whether it's in your room before you're heading to bed or while you're cooking a meal for yourself, talk to him like he's really there. I find that helps a lot with working through the grief and healing those old hurts.
@publickovacs Grieving a parent is something that never really goes away, It gets smaller, easier to manage but it never really disappears. We learn to adapt to accommodate for that grief and patience is key to that.
@publickovacs To share with you on this, I lost my mother in 2004 to a pulmonary embolism. It was quite sudden she didn't feel any pain but she was young, she was only 52 years old. Every August I sit down with that grief and I listen to the world around me and I talk to her. She may not walk with me still but I can feel her presence whenever I talk to her. I don't get exact answers but I can feel when she's there when she approves and when she doesn't. I guess you could say she's my guide now.
@publickovacs You're most welcome Mel. I do hope it becomes easier for you to handle. May the gods give you peace.
@publickovacs I suppose the most important piece of advice I can give you for working through the grief is to be patient with yourself. It will hit you at the most random times. You'll smell something that'll remind you of him or you see something that looks like something you saw with him. Embrace those moments, be gentle with yourself and let those emotions pour out. It's hard but it does get easier as you heal and adapt.
