Healing Light

A Buck Moon Tarot Spread

If you looked in the sky last night, you saw the beautiful moon now at full phase. The peak illumination of the current full moon happened this morning; Sunday, July 21st at 6:17 a.m. EDT [EDT meaning Eastern Daylight Time]. Even though the peak is in the morning hours, the moon will still appear full to the naked eye tonight. This full moon is also known as the Buck Moon, as it is the time of year when male deer regrow their antlers.

As the Buck Moon rises this evening, casting its silvery light and potent energy into our world, it is the perfect time for a tarot reading. As bucks shed their antlers under this full moon, we too are called to embrace release and transformation. This three-card tarot spread delves into what we need to shed, the potential that awaits us, and the actions required to step into our renewed selves.

For this Buck Moon spread, you will need three cards:

1. The Moulted Antler: This card represents what you are ready to let go of. Is it a limiting belief, a negative habit, or a situation that no longer serves you? This card reveals the aspect of yourself that is ready to be shed, like the buck’s antler, to make way for new growth.
2. The Velvet Seedling: Beneath the discarded antler lies the potential for something new. This card represents the seed of possibility waiting to sprout within you. What is the new aspect of yourself or situation waiting to emerge?
3. The Call of the Wild: Taking action is necessary to cultivate the potential revealed in the second card. This card offers guidance on the steps you need to take to step into your newfound self. What action or intention can you set to nurture the seed of possibility?

Shuffle your deck while focusing on the energy of the Buck Moon and your desire for transformation. Draw three cards and lay them out in the order above. As you interpret the cards, journal about what they reveal about your own shedding, growth, and the actions needed to move forward.

By embracing the lessons of the Buck Moon, we can utilize this potent lunar energy to release what no longer serves us and cultivate the seeds of our truest potential. So light some candles, draw your cards, and step into the magic of this transformative full moon!
