This week, I had the opportunity to take a class with the incredible Collette Baron-Reid, using her Wisdom of the Oracle deck. As someone who deeply trusts the language of Spirit and signs, I knew this experience would offer more than just a reading—it would offer a mirror for my soul.

Collette guided us through a spread that began with choosing an Anchor Card—a card to reflect where I am now, what’s happening beneath the surface, and what energy is guiding me forward.

My Anchor Card: Poised (#48)

I pulled card #48 Poised, and my heart immediately lit up.Not only is this card a message of being ready to leap, to shine, to rise—but I’m also 48 years old. That synchronicity hit deep.

It felt like Spirit saying, “You are exactly where you're meant to be. All the healing, the waiting, the wondering—it's brought you to this threshold. You’re ready.”It was confirmation that the next chapter of my life is not something I have to chase—it’s already unfolding. I just have to rise and meet it.

🌙 I went deeper with a 3-card spread based on the themes of the Anchor card

What am I poised for?
What energies am I supported by?
What is my next inspired action?

Here’s what came through:

✴️ 1. What am I poised for?

Orphaned (#5) – ReversedThis card stopped me in my tracks. It spoke directly to the parts of me that have long carried the wound of not belonging.But reversed, it was clear: I am poised to finally release the belief that I’m alone.I’m moving into a space where I can truly feel that I belong—within myself, with Spirit, and with the community that sees my heart.

This is a healing not just of my own life, but possibly of generations before me who didn’t know they were loved exactly as they were.

🕊 2. What energies am I supported by?

Peace (#23)I felt this card in my body.I am being supported by stillness, softness, surrender. No more pushing. No more proving. Just the gentle knowing that I am safe to receive, safe to rest, safe to bloom.

The energy of Peace reminds me that my power doesn’t have to roar—it can whisper.

🔀 3. What is my next inspired action?

Never Ending Story (#37)This one felt like a sacred nudge from the Universe.I’ve been running old tapes in my mind—stories of lack, of not being good enough, of needing to earn love. This card was a compassionate call to pause the loop.

My next step is to rewrite the narrative. To speak to myself like I would a child—loving, patient, affirming. To interrupt those old thoughts and remind myself: "This is just a pattern I’m breaking—not my truth."

🧳 Integration: This Moment Matters

This spread wasn’t just a reading. It was a sacred initiation.

I am poised to leap—not because I’m perfect, but because I’m ready.
I am supported by peace—the quiet knowing that I am held.
I am empowered to break the old story and tell a new one—one where I belong, I thrive, I rise.

To be 48 and pull card 48… that’s no accident. That’s alignment.That’s magic.
