I get a number of decks to review each month, but don't always have the time to use all of them right away. So, I thought, why not start a series where I use a deck for an entire week. Use it in spreads, do daily pulls, and all the normal stuff I typically do when I want to use a deck.
For the first mini series, I'm going to be using the Black Moon Lilith Cosmic Alchemy Oracle by Adama Sesay and illustrated by Carlos Fama, and published by Hay House.
If you want to see a full walk-through of this deck, check out my YouTube channel!
I decided to take some time before going to bed to pull one card from the deck, just to close out the energy from the day before I go to sleep.
I pulled card #31 Pluto — Endings and Regeneration.
I opened the guidebook to read the entry because this is a new deck to me and I love working with the guidebook when it comes to oracles that are new. The first sentence is..
“Misalignment can manifest physically as that uneasy feeling in the pit of your stomach.”1
Wow. Reading that first sentence made me feel so seen. I had such a rough day at work because it's the Q4 grind currently and things are wilding, and I totally feel uneasy when I'm overwhelmed.2
So, as a message before bed, I interpreted this as:
Yes I'm going to have uneasy feelings because of the day I've had. But I need to let go of the energy of the day because tomorrow is a new beginning. A fresh start. For all I know, tomorrow could be a better day, so I shouldn't let today's unpleasantness cloud tomorrow's possibilities.
What I also like about this guidebook entry is that there's a little section called Life Metamorphosis According to your Pluto Sign. My Pluto is in Scorpio and for me it says Crisis, death, regeneration.3 When I read that I laughed because my mind automatically went to tower, death, and the fool. You need to go through a lot of shit before you can change and start a new! Which is true, but also exhausting because I just want rainbows sometimes haha.
Well, I'm getting tired. It's time for bed. So, good night.
I’ll leave you with the affirmation associated with the card:
“Everything must come to an end. Wipe the skate clean and make space for the new.”4

I wrote this back in November. It was a wild time.
