Lord of the Rings Tarot Weekly Reading August 23-29th

✧ Hello lovelies, for this August 23-29th weekly card reading, I am using The Lord of the Rings Tarot deck. After shuffling and cleansing my cards, I was drawn to pull ‘The Lady Éowyn‘. Éowyn represents bravery, healing and companionship.

Who is Éowyn?

Éowyn is a fictional character and noblewoman of Rohan in The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R Tolkien. Éowyn fell in love with Aragon, a man from a long-lost bloodline who was to become King; though he loved another. Éowyn was not expected to fight as she was a woman, though she longed to win renown in battle. Believing herself to be a shieldmaiden, she stood by her own faith and bravery to fight for Middle-Earth. She rode into battle on horseback and killed the Witch-King of Angmar in the battle of Pelennor Fields. As a result, she became ill and it was in the houses of healing she preservered and met Faramir, a man whom she soon fell in love with. Éowyn and Faramir married and settled in Ithilien, and soon after with their son.

Advice on how to spend the week ahead?

For the week ahead, heed your intuition. At times it can be difficult to truly listen to yourself, though no one knows you better than yourself. Take note of difficult feelings as they are always a clue that change is needed. If you continue to push these feelings aside you will create bigger problems for yourself and you will feel even more lost. When going through a rough time, remember how Éowyn found love in the darkest of days by staying true to herself and following through with her beliefs. Know your values and morals, and know them well. When you act in line with these principles then life will fall into place.

Activity suggestions to make the most of this week:
✧ write down your values
✧ write down ways to act on these values
✧ reflect on your feelings
✧ work on one thing you’ve been putting off for a long time
✧ do one thing you’ve wanted to do for a long time

I hope that this card reading helps your journey. Please comment and let me know how your week goes, I love getting to know fellow pagans!

Love and Blessings,
