The Winter Witch
The Winter Witch appears as the manifestation of your inner power. Your soul will draw this card to your reading when you need a reminder of how many resources and capabilities are already within you or available to you. Be bold and confident in your pursuits, and speak your aspirations plainly and ask for what you want with conviction. This is your summons to find clarity in your desires and direct your energy with intention rather than seeking to force your way to success. It would be so easy to approach an obstacle with frustration, anger, panic, or a sense of defeat, but that is not the witch’s way. Instead, she urges you to face complications with peace, to once again trust in the universe to work with you to find solutions. Likewise, it may seem natural to greet a goal with self-doubt and fear. All the same, The Winter Witch reminds you there is no dream or hurdle too big or too small to stop you when you open yourself to the magic of the spiritual realm.
Artisan of Winter Wands
The Artisan of Winter Wands, typically called the Queen of Wands, is bold, confident, radiant, and charming. In a reading she represents the kind of person who lights up the room, commanding respect and awe wherever she goes. This type of person is creative and enthusiastic, gently urging everyone around her to step it up to match her vibration. This person will be a natural leader, effortlessly communicating her wants and needs while helping others find their gifts.
As an evolutionary energy, the Artisan of Winter Wands invites you to shine more brightly, to borrow her social grace and share your creative vision with others. Don’t be afraid to talk yourself up or connect with like minds who can help you in your endeavors. The Artisan of Winter Wands is never afraid to self-promote: she views networking as an art, dancing with ease between different social circles.
Ace of Winter Swords
Like all aces this card represents a new beginning. You may receive a spark of an idea, especially when it comes to communications. Perhaps you feel inspired to take up public speaking or share a gift for words, or you may simply be embracing the more logical side of your brain and leaning into intellectual thinking and reasoning. However, this is the most challenging of the ace cards, so know there will be challenges ahead.
The shadow of this card is using truth for harm. You may have information that could be especially hurtful to someone and should be kept to yourself. It can also represent holding back information, also for malicious reasons. Be mindful of how you use your words, as they can cause real damage if rooted in harmful intentions.
How to use Seasons of the Witch Winter Tarot
The Seasons of the Witch: Winter Tarot is similar to the Seasons of the Witch oracle series in the sense that it functions in the same way as any other tarot deck, and the meanings can apply to any situation no matter what time of year you use it. The themes held within this deck might feel most relevant visually during the winter, but the energy of this deck isn’t limited to just one specific season. Your soul won’t care if it’s December 29 or June 12 if it’s experiencing burnout and needs a break. Thus, the energy of winter can appear for you during the entire year, and when it does this deck will be there to support you.
