Stop Playing With Pride

Our Divine Download for November 13, 2026 is Don't Let Pride Get In Your Way/Full Moon in Leo from the Moonology Oracle Cards. Our pride is essentially the manifestation of an overactive ego. Technically pride is an emotion or an emotional state and our ego is a reflex originated by our brain stem to keep us safe. However, ego unchecked can cause pride to feel much more intense than it otherwise would. What are you not doing because your pride has been barking at you? How is pride keeping your paralyzed rather than helping you? Our ego learned to keep us safe when we first existed on the planet, where nearly everything is either could, or was actively trying to kill us. It is a reflex that screams at us "you're not safe!" or "you're going to die!" Fortunately due to an evolution in circumstances and society, very little is actively trying to kill us on any given day, even if our ego has not kept pace with that fact. Pride becomes disproportionate when it becomes SO dead serious. "I would die before I give her the satisfaction..." "Hell would freeze over before I'd ever talk to them again..." Because the truth is, it is rarely every that serious. When you choose to pull your energy back from a connection or a situation, that decision should always be about you and not the other person and should therefore usher in a sense of peace. Pride's most expensive currency is your peace. If there is a situation or a connection that you are not at peace with, chances are better than not that pride has fucked with you at least a little bit in regards to that connection or situation. If you have an emotional response or a visceral reaction when a person or situation comes to mind, you are not at peace, than chances are better than not that pride is at play. Pride and ego tend to be partners in crime when it comes to developing maladaptive behaviors and coping mechanism. This card is a sure sign that your pride is holding you back from something that you are meant to do or experience. Are you going to stay stuck and let it continue to have that kind of hold on you? Or are you going to process your emotions so that pride doesn't have anything to cling on to? The Full Moon in Leo's directive is clear: whatever you do, do not let pride get in the way!
