Tarot Tuesday - Tarot for my Kiddo and the Dentist

Tarot for my kiddo and the dentist


I decided to pull a card today to help me with my daughter. She is only 3 but she needs to have several fillings done today and I wanted some advice on how best to handle the situation with her.


Sometimes tarot surprises me. I expected a card saying I should coddle her. After all she will need to get up early, she will not be allowed to eat anything, then she will have to have 4 fillings done first thing in the morning. She will stay home with me for the day as the dentist office advises she does not go to daycare after having “sleepy juice”. So as I said I expected a card about spoiling her and making her feel special.


Instead I got the 7 of Wands. Stand your ground. Do not let those opposed to you knock you off balance. Apparently it will be much more a day of tough love than a day of coddling! This card indicates that you have the “moral high ground” in an issue and I suppose that is true. She needs this dental work done. Even though these are “baby teeth” she will likely have them for almost 10 more years and so the right thing to do it so get them treated properly.


Even after pulling this card I don’t really expect a fight from her. Strangely enough she loves going to the doctor or the dentist and she is usually a good patient so I do expect her cooperation. But I may have to deal with some whining about not being able to eat breakfast, or needing to go so early, so I am now prepared for that.


You can take this same message with you today, too. Stand your ground. Don’t be afraid to fight for your beliefs. Don’t let the haters bring you down!


It dawns on me that perhaps this card shows up because this is how I feel about going to the dentist, too:  stay away from me!  LOL


Card is from the Robin Wood Tarot.
