Oracle Mornings: Where oracle cards awaken your morning ritual

This week has been a heavy one in the U.S., and today’s episode of Oracle Mornings invites us to pause, reflect, and return to love. Amanda shares openly about the collective grief and division we’ve felt, and then turns to a card we’ve pulled recently—Ascendancy Capacity from The Medicine Heart Oracle by Alana Fairchild.
When a card comes back into our spread, it’s a powerful nudge from Spirit to listen more deeply. Today we explore what it means to expand your field of power, to radiate love even in challenging times, and to become a stabilizing light in the world.
You’ll also be guided through a simple but powerful journaling exercise to uncover your deeper “why”—helping you connect to your purpose and fuel your path forward.
Take a breath, open your heart, and step into your capacity to rise above with grace.
🌿 Key Takeaways
When an oracle card reappears, it signals a deeper invitation to embody its message.

You can transform pain and heaviness into sacred fertilizer for healing.

Have you ever found yourself in the middle of an “adult tantrum”—a mood so heavy it feels like you just want to run away and hide? In today’s episode, Amanda shares the story of a client who felt exactly that way and what it can teach us about navigating dips in energy and emotion.
Amanda pulls the card “Empathetic Starseed: Energetic sovereignty. Absorbing what’s not yours” from The Starseed Oracle by Rebecca Campbell, which beautifully aligns with the reminder that sensitive beings often absorb the moods of others—and that it’s okay to step back, care for yourself, and protect your energy.
If you’ve been feeling weighed down by energy that isn’t yours, this episode offers a compassionate perspective and gentle encouragement to reclaim your sovereignty.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
Why “adult tantrums” can actually be moments of growth
How empathetic starseeds often carry the weight of others’ moods
Simple reminders for protecting your energy and giving yourself time to recover
A journaling prompt: How can you take better care of yourself energetically?
✨ Remember: Your presence alone shifts the world. Take care of yourself first so you can continue to shine sustainably.
🌸 Affirmation
I honor my sensitivity as a gift and protect my energy with love and care.

As the seasons shift and the days grow shorter, Amanda reflects on the feelings that come with winter’s darkness—resistance, fear, and the longing for light. Today, she pulls the Owl card from The 13 Holy Nights Oracle Deck by Lara J. Day, a powerful reminder that the unknown holds wisdom, healing, and even miracles.
Known as the “Eagle of the Night,” Owl teaches us to befriend the darkness, widen our perspective, and trust that clarity can emerge even in shadow. Together, we’ll explore what it means to navigate the unknown, embrace both light and shadow, and discover the hidden gifts waiting for us in this season.
Takeaways from today’s episode:
Why Owl calls us to trust the mystery and the unseen.
The power of darkness as fertile space for transformation.
How to find balance between light and shadow in your own practice.
A gentle reminder that clarity and miracles can emerge when we least expect them.
🌙 May this message inspire you to meet the darker seasons of life with curiosity instead of fear, and to welcome the wisdom hidden there.

"I trust the wisdom of the unknown and welcome the gifts hidden in the darkness."

This morning, Amanda shares a simple but profound reminder to trust in the great mystery of life. Inspired by a quiet moment with a deer in the field, she pulls the Whale Spirit card from The Spirit Animal Pocket Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid.
The Whale Spirit invites us to let go of the need to understand everything with our minds and instead lean into trust, intuition, and awe. Just like the seeds of intention we’ve been planting this season, there are forces beyond our sight—angels, spirit, the unseen realms—tending to them on our behalf.
In this episode, Amanda reflects on:
Why the everyday moments in nature can feel miraculous
How Whale Spirit guides us to embrace mystery rather than fear it
The synchronicity between trusting the unseen and the harvest season we’re moving through
Take a deep breath, let yourself rest in the unknown, and remember that life’s mysteries are not meant to be solved—they’re meant to be lived.

September is a month of reinvention—a time to clear away what no longer serves us and to plant seeds of intention for the season ahead. In today’s episode of Oracle Mornings, Amanda reflects on how our desires are not random, but sacred signposts leading us closer to who we truly are.
Today’s card pull is Our Lady of the Whispering Heart from Mother Mary Oracle by Alana Fairchild, illustrated by Shiloh Sophia McCloud. This message reminds us that the clearest guidance doesn’t always come from the loudest voice. While fear and doubt may shout, love and truth whisper quietly, consistently, and deeply within.
✨ In this episode, Amanda shares:
Why September feels like the perfect time for reinvention
How your desires reveal who you truly are
The wisdom of Our Lady of the Whispering Heart
A reminder that love whispers, while fear shouts
Journaling prompts to help you listen beyond fear and into truth
Take a few deep breaths, open your heart, and trust the whispers that are calling you forward.
Journaling Prompts
If fear were not part of my story, what would I do?
If I could wave a magic wand, what would I want in my life—and how would it make me feel?
What would my heart say if it was completely free from fear?

Today’s Oracle Mornings episode begins with guidance from the Snow Leopard card in Messages from Your Animal Spirit Guides by Steven D. Farmer. This card invites us to embrace solitude as a sacred way to ground, reconnect, and restore balance.
Amanda then shares a powerful teaching she heard about in Kabbalah, about expanding the vessel and the light—a reminder that we are all vessels of Divine energy, and that expanding our capacity requires gentleness and patience. Just like our nervous system, the vessel must be strengthened over time so that it can safely hold more light without overwhelm.
In this episode you’ll discover:
The difference between solitude and isolation, and why solitude is vital for grounding.
How the vessel mirrors our nervous system.
Practical ways to expand your capacity: breath, meditation, grounding, and rest.
An affirmation and guided visualization to support your nervous system in receiving more light.
🌟 Affirmation:"I am a sacred vessel for Divine light. With each breath, I strengthen my capacity to receive, to hold, and to flow. My nervous system is calm, steady, and open, balancing expansion with grounding. I welcome the light in perfect measure for my wholeness."
✨ Try This Practice:Take a few minutes today to sit quietly with your breath. Imagine yourself as a vessel — a bowl, cup, or lamp — slowly filling with golden light, drop by drop. Whisper: “I can hold this. I am safe to receive.” Allow your nervous system to soften into the safety of expansion.
This week, notice how solitude, grounding, and nervous system care can help you grow your vessel with strength and grace.

Today, Amanda reflects on September as a natural new year, drawing inspiration from Rosh Hashanah and the rhythms of the harvest season. This is the perfect time to release what no longer serves us—and plant seeds of intention for the year ahead.
Today’s oracle card, Lady of Lhasa Descends from Alana Fairchild’s Wild Kuan Yin Oracle, carries a powerful reminder: we don’t always need to strive, climb, or push to manifest what we seek. Sometimes, the Divine meets us where we are, offering grace, blessings, and comfort when we soften into trust and receptivity.
💫 Key themes in this episode:
September as a sacred time of endings and beginnings
Letting go what no longer serves us—fear, doubt, guilt, scarcity
Planting seeds—of joy, fun, and abundance
Trusting the Divine Mother to deliver what we’ve been seeking
Shifting from striving into receiving with grace
Affirmation:I release fear, doubt, and striving. I open my heart with trust, ready to receive the Divine gifts flowing toward me with ease and grace

Today's card is the Bison Totem from The Medicine Woman Oracle by Catherine Maillard. After a weekend spent camping with my family—under the stars, by the trees, and near the water—it felt like the perfect reminder from nature itself.
The Bison teaches us about abundance, gratitude, and community. Its message is to honor what we already have, to use resources respectfully, and to give generously of ourselves. By trusting life’s generosity, we open ourselves to a deeper sense of connection and support.
The Bison also invites us into reflection: What abundance already surrounds you? How can you share your gifts with your community? Take a moment today to breathe into gratitude and to reaffirm your trust in life’s provision.

Amanda shares the card Breaking the Chain of Repeating Cycles from Exploring the Empath’s Oracle by Raven Digitalis. This powerful message invites us to notice the patterns—both positive and challenging—that tend to show up in our lives, and to choose how we respond to them.
Together, we explore:✨ Why some lessons seem to repeat until we learn from them✨ The true meaning of karma as “action,” not punishment✨ How awareness and curiosity can help us shift old habits✨ Ways to lean on trusted friends for gentle feedback and reflection✨ The freedom that comes when we choose a new response
As we step into the last few weeks of summer, this is a reminder that breaking cycles doesn’t mean erasing the past—it means transforming it with love, awareness, and courage.
🌸 Affirmation
I honor the lessons of my past, and I choose new responses that break old cycles and open me to freedom.
