MEMORIES: Make some new memories! Meet life head-on as a wealth of experiences awaits, helping memories to manifest. A loved one wishes to be remembered.
This mermaid swims in from your past – or from your future – with a handful of photographs to remind you of a special time in your life. Perhaps a loved one who has passed on is wanting you to remember them fondly. Memories take up permanent residence within our hearts and minds, so maybe it’s time to create some magical new ones to fill your beautiful heart with even more joy and echoes of loving moments in your life.
Some memories make you happy and others make you sad. Some take a precious place within your heart and bring upliftment and joy in time of sadness. The important thing to remember is that, whether happy or sad, these memories are an important part of your history. So it’s good to honor them as these memories and experiences have made you the person you are now.
Try keeping a journal of beautiful memories, as this will help you get over a loss. You can then look back when you’re feeling low and remember all the wonderful times.
Photographs are significant for you right now. Notice any photographs that appear in social media, online or anywhere around you over the next few days or weeks. They will have a significant meaning for you. Also, be aware of who turns up in your dreams – friends and people from your past may appear with meaningful memories or messages. Perhaps you enjoy taking photographs and creating your own memories?
This card could also be a reminding you that a special celebration is coming up soon.

FEELINGS: Express your feelings as honestly as you can. E-motion means ‘energy in motion’. Emotions can come in powerful waves of intense feelings.
This mermaid is swimming into your reading to let you know that it’s safe to express your feelings. You don’t have to pretend that everything is fine when it’s not. Equally, if you’re feeling joyful, share your joy and allow it to spread to those around you.
Feelings can run very deep and often affect our actions in various ways. This is why it’s positive to release your feelings in a healthy constructive way. If you’re feeling sad, then crying can be helpful, as can sharing your thoughts with a trusted friend. By contrast, singing at the top of your voice to express feelings of happiness is a beautiful thing to do, and this can also help to release any inhibitions. The Sirens of the sea are known for their singing, which acts as a musical magnet for anyone who hears.
Don’t attempt to stifle or hide your feelings, even if they’re uncomfortable. If someone hurt you, let them know – you can do this in a gentle, kind and compassionate way. This way they will be more receptive to hearing you as you express how you feel. You’ll certainly feel better for sharing, too.
This card also indicates that someone around you might be finding it hard to share their feelings. If this is the case, have a chat with them over a cup of tea or coffee and encourage them to open up about how they feel, or go out for a walk together, ideally on the beach, so their feelings can flow.

SOLITUDE: Take time to retreat from the world. Go inwards and explore your inner-space to reveal the treasures therein. It’s okay to be reclusive or solitary at times.
We all need time out to be in our own space and enjoy our own company. This solitary mermaid is saying that the tonic you need right now is some time alone.
Being solitary doesn’t mean you’re anti-social or reclusive; it merely indicates you honor yourself enough to enjoy your own space. Taking up a craft or hobby is also a wonderful thing to do, because it allows you to take pleasure in your own company while also being productive and creative.
When we live in a large household, we can sometimes feel stifled or trapped. The desire and very real need for ‘space’ becomes greater, as it can feel like there’s no escape from the constant presence of others. No matter how lovely it is to have company, we all need room to spiritually ‘breathe’ and gather our thoughts.
However, this card can also be saying the opposite: that you’re spending too much time alone. When we distance ourselves from other people, we can become wrapped up in what is going on inside our own head and get swept away with our thoughts and feelings. So, the answer here, is balance. You need to find the right balance between having solitary time and spending time with others. This will create a healthy way of being and will also help to keep thoughts and feelings in perspective.
