It’s Monday, and the last one in September. Isn’t it insane to think of Christmas coming right around the corner? As always, I hope you leave this post with a positive thought and maybe a bit of inspiration.
Today, I am sharing a podcast video from my neighbor, Judy White-Artz. She is in the process of publishing her first book. So, she’ll be joining our author family soon. She shares some pieces of divine wisdom she learned through life experiences. She has a unique perspective on everyday facets of life. She’d be so honored if you’d visit and share.
I don’t know about you, but I am happy to see this card come up this week.
The keywords to this beautiful card are waiting or shifting perspective. When you are suspended upside down, there is time to reflect and see things from a new angle. This indicates a period when there is no movement forward. It is in this stillness you have the opportunity to see your situation from a new perspective.
Sometimes, you have to surrender to what is happening and find peace during moments of inactivity until the time is right for action and transformation. Basically, this card is asking us to pause and take the time to reflect on or surrender to the present moment as fully as we can.
My Takeaway:
It’s time to pause, take a breath and be still!
I love this fantastic Dragon card! It speaks directly to my thoughts and ideas about the transformation this planet is undergoing. I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for the new Golden Age!
I hope you have a wonderful week ahead and take the advice of The Hanged Man with you.

Congratulations to Judy on joining the author family. I wish her all the best with her release.
And another gorgeous dragon card. I also love the idea of pausing and reflecting on the moment. Not everything is about plowing ahead!
Thank you, Mae, for the good wishes for Judy. She’s a lovely soul. I’m glad you liked the dragon card. They are all so beautiful. And yes, sometimes we have to take a pause for the cause. Thank you for stopping by!
I like that interpretation of Hanged Man. Not nearly as negative as I’d always thought.
No, it isn’t. In fact, I always enjoy seeing it come up because it gives me an excuse to step back and take a breath. Thank you for stopping by!
Great reading, Jan! And congrats on the new venture! ???

Thank you, Yvette!
For a society that always seems to need and want the next big thing, it’s nice to slow down, take it all in, and be thankful for our blessings. Reflecting and looking at a problem from a different perspective is a sign of maturity.
I couldn’t agree more, Pete. Thank you for adding to the conversation today.
I love that takeaway. Pause, reflect, and be still. Like Denise, I delayed the release of a book because I felt rushed and didn’t feel I had the time to devote to marketing it beforehand. It’s a decision I don’t regret.
Congrats to your neighbor!
I did somewhat of the same thing with A Beggar’s Bargain. Instead of rushing to get it out this year, I’ve put it off until spring. I think our work deserves the best chance possible and that includes preparing it and marketing it. Thank you so much for stopping by and for the congrats for Judy!
I am very ready for that new golden age, Jan 🙂 i am right in the middle of getting a new perspective on many life matters that I ignored too long. As for writing, it paid off to approach a story set aside now. It seems to be the right time for many things 🙂
Thank you for your comment, Denise. I, too am ready to help usher in that new golden age! Getting a new perspective can often make a lot of difference in our physical and mental well-being. I agree that it seems to be the right time for many things. I hope you have a fabulous week ahead and thank you so much for visiting!
Loved seeing your friend Judy! How wonderful to finally get her book published and I’m so happy for her. The Hanged Man huh? I can sure use a pause and some reflection. Helps me see things better. Love you, Sister!
Thank you, sister. I’m glad you enjoyed seeing Judy and hearing her message. It’s so exciting when someone gets their first book published! Yep. The Hanged Man. Time to step back and get a different perspective. 🙂 Hope you have a great day. Love you!
A fresh view is always a good one. Thanks, Jan.
I agree, John! Thanks for visiting!
Well, the uS capital markets are turning so maybe the golden age isn’t so very far away ?. I can never sit still and reflect, I’m too busy with projects.
One can only hope that the Golden Age is nearing, Robbie. And I can definitely see you as a person constantly on the move. You have so many projects going on at the same time. Every now and then, take three minutes to take three deep breaths, then plunge back in. Thank you for visiting!

Now I understand why I’m being gently shoved back. Basically, I’m remaining “still” to shift ideas and projects. Thanks so much! Enjoy this last week of September! I’ve been lost in another realm that I thought we had more days in this month. Teehehe….
As the bands would say, “taking a pause for the cause.” Sometimes we just need to breathe and that seems to be the theme of this week. Lol, Mary! I relate to the feeling of losing time. But it is what it is and we must make the best of it. Have a wonderful week and thank you for visiting. Hugs!
I like the Hanged Man card, Jan. Having the ability to wait is imperative particularly for a writer! I loved the photos you shared on IG this weekend. Your grandson is a handsome fella. He looks like a nice young man. Have a great week ahead!
Awwww, thank you, Jill. He has grown up WAY too fast. He will be 18 in March and will soon be off to college. He’s a wonderful young man with a huge heart, and I’m so proud of him. I’m glad you enjoyed the Hanged Man card this week. Sometimes, we have to take a step back and look at things from a different angle. I appreciate your support so much more than you can know. Have a great week ahead.
Oddly enough, I’m going to be the Lone Ranger at work this week. The Hanged Man seems appropriate.
Perfect, Craig! Step back and take a deep breath. Maybe your Eagle will come to visit. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
I think the best thing about Judy’s message, besides the message itself, is the fact that she is willing to learn from her grandchildren. Nothing makes people, especially young people, feel better than to know their thoughts matter.
That is so true, Dan. I lived here for several years before I met her through a mutual friend and she has been a blessing in my life. And now she is going to have a book published! Thank you SO much for taking the time to listen to her message. I deeply appreciate that.
That Hanged Man. It does speak to me since just minutes ago I felt like being stuck in my business life. So, a great card to show that this may be the time to step back, take a deep breath, and look at everything with a fresh mind.
I felt the same way, Erika. When this card showed up, I instantly sat back and took in a deep breath. I’m so glad it spoke to you and thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment. Here’s to a fresh perspective!
It was meant to be connected to you since we may be on a similar path when even coming from different directions. Amazing how these cards always hit the nail on the head!!
