Card of the Day is Gang Leader from the Cowgirls and Alien Oracle.

Affirmation: I will prioritise myself and my own needs.

A single gunshot rings out across the desert. Her horse rears as smoke rises from her laser rifle. Her old boss lies in the dust, silent at last. The rest of the gang look on, startled but not surprised. It’s a cutthroat planet, and a change of leadership is long overdue. “Change of plans, girls—we’re going my way now,” she says, and the gang cheers as they mount their horses and follow their new leader across the plains.

The message here is that it’s not easy to climb to the top of an outlaw gang, this side of the Milky Way, but the gang leader is tired of following orders. With her cunning and determination, she’s decided to take matters into her own hands. This time, she’s putting herself and her aspirations first. It would be wise to stay out of her way.

Have you been spending too much time setting aside your own dreams to help others? Perhaps it’s time to start putting yourself first and taking the lead. It’s perfectly acceptable to say no sometimes and take time for yourself. After all, you won’t be of much help to anyone else if you’re feeling unfulfilled or incomplete. Now it’s your turn. So, fearless leader—your new outlaw gang is waiting for your orders. What’s it going to be?

Tip: Remember, every time you say yes to someone else, you’re also saying no to yourself. You only have a finite amount of time to achieve the things you want in life. Don’t feel guilty about prioritising yourself when you need to—you’ll be better prepared to help others if you take care of yourself first.

Charms Pulled: Butterfly and a hundred-dollar bill.The butterfly charm is a powerful symbol of transformation and growth. Just as the gang leader reclaims her power and rises from the dust, the butterfly speaks of your own ability to emerge renewed from challenging situations. It’s a reminder that prioritising yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential to your evolution. Trust in the process and embrace the changes that come with stepping into your own leadership.

The hundred-dollar bill charm is all about abundance and the confidence to claim what you’re worth. It speaks to the idea that when you start putting yourself first—like the gang leader—you create opportunities for wealth and success to flow into your life. By daring to go your own way, you invite the universe to reward your courage with material and spiritual abundance.

Together, these charms reinforce today’s message: prioritise yourself and watch as transformation and prosperity follow.

I’ve really enjoyed working with the cowgirl and alien oracle this week—it’s been such fun and something completely different. Tomorrow I'm excited to work with the Mystic Islands Oracle.

Side note: when I was doing my cards for the month of June (pulled in December last year), my affirmations for the month was: I deserve to say no to that which no longer serves me. Seems to tie in perfectly with today’s reading
