Intuitive Strategic Plan Ritual
(Optional) clarify your vision and get focused, tangible action steps with these journaling prompts:
My future self wants ...
My inner child wants ...
My loved ones want ...
My higher power wants ...
This could look like, "My future self wants me to take care of my health. My loved ones want me to know they're there for me. My inner child wants to play, make music and art," etc.

Draw a card for "in alignment" and one for "out of alignment".
In the future, when faced with a decision, does this feel like the energy from somewhere/something in or out of alignment? Can I shift this action to feel more in alignment?
Use dowsing/favorite form of muscle testing to figure out the number of priorities to focus on right now. Being priorities, it's probably around 1-3. Draw that many cards and lay them out.
From here, break stuff down into tangible steps as needed, if you want.
My first priority was to breathe and get grounded. Nothing simpler than that! It didn't need any more breaking down.
Then, I moved on to the next priority, used dowsing to check how many action steps I had. I drew cards for that and laid them out under the priority. I asked myself, "Do these action steps need to be broken down further?" until I had a beautiful, clear, laid out plan in front of me.
