It’s Monday, and it’s my birthday!!! I was born on this day in 1951, and I am grateful to have made another complete trip around the sun. It is a blessing to still be here surrounded by a loving family and an entire community spanning the globe. I love today’s quote. How true is it? We often let our doubts stop us in our tracks.
This meditation touched me deeply, and I hope it will you, too.
Again, because the reading for the entire month of August was so powerful, I am only pulling one card to set the tone for the week ahead. If you missed the August reading or just want to take another look at it, you can find it here.
This card is pure action! The Knight is charging forward, brandishing his sword of truth. Sometimes this card can represent a situation that must be dealt with head-on to avoid confrontation. Or, it may suggest that you need to be more assertive in focusing on your goals with all your available energy. Is there someone in your life trying to engage you in their drama? It’s best to keep moving and seek only the truth.
It could apply to a project you need to focus more intensely on. Often applying yourself more strongly, in general, will bring a change regarding your work. News may be on the way, and if so, it’s coming rapidly. Be assertive in going after what you truly want in life.
MY TAKEAWAY:
There isn’t much I can add to that. On a personal note, I did take assertive and definitive action regarding my new business venture of opening tarot reading services to the public. My new website is up! I’d love it if you’d take a look and share it with anyone you know who might be interested in a reading. WEBSITE
Here is my logo. Thoughts?
I was drawn back to the beautiful dragon cards this week. This one is just stunning!
That’s it. I hope you have a great week, and if you are in this intense heat, stay cool!

This is a great card for setting out on vacation, Jan. I’m leaving all the daily drama behind and hiking into the mountains. 🙂 I popped over to your new site and what a lovely introduction. I thought it was interesting that you left The Chariot card most visible. Was that on purpose?
Happy belated birthday, Jan – hope it was a wonderful one!
Thank you, Teri!
Happy birthday, Jan, and best of luck with your new website!
Thank you, Jacqui!
Happy Birthday Jan! And congrats on your new tarot business! You asked for thoughts on your logo, I can’t make out what the centre image is. Is it a name, initials? It’s hard to make out what it represents. Maybe ‘Jantarot’ could be in bolder print? Otherwise, lovely. <3
Thank you for your input, Debby. The letters are JT in script. Perhaps a more readable font would be better. Much appreciated!
Oh, ok Jan. I’m sorry I couldn’t make it out. Maybe a little tweak. 🙂 x
Happy Birthday, Jan. I hope you have an awesome day, my friend!
Good luck in all your ventures!
Thank you, Mae!
First off, happy birthday, young lady. If you’re like me, birthdays no longer excite me. On the other hand, as my mother-in-law used to say, “It’s better than the alternative.”?
Like the knight, I now try to operate by taking the bull by the horns. I wish I had been like this long ago, but better late than never. Enjoy your day, Jan!
It’s true that birthdays don’t excite me, but I do love the chance to be with my family and let them express their love. That’s what it’s all about. I’m glad you enjoyed the post. Thank you for stopping by!
Wishig you a very Happy Birthday and a fabulous year.
Thank you, Darlene!
I like the tarot card meaning for today: hang in and keep focused on the goal. It has a lot to do with believing in yourself because then you only look at the/your truth without distraction.
So very true, Erika. Part of accomplishing anything in life is believing we can do it. Thank you for your wonderful comment!
You are very welcome, dear Jan ?
Happy, happy birthday, Jan! I hope you have an amazing day 🙂 Loved that card you pulled, first thought seeing it was charge! Loved the dragon too. Congrats on the new website, I shared it and wish you a ton of success. Enjoy your day.
Thank you so much, Denise! I appreciate the birthday wishes and am so glad you enjoyed the cards today. Thank you for visiting and sharing the new website. Hugs!
Happy birthday ???I hope you have a great week too.
Thank you so much, Thomas!
Well, this card fits perfectly with the reading you did for me yesterday. Wow! I’ve just been drifting without a real purpose but it’s time to take action. Happy Birthday, Sister!!! Much love and big hugs.
Yep. I agree, sister. It does fit right along with the other cards. It’s time to start moving again. You’ve had an extended period of downtime and you needed it. But it’s not permanent. Love you, and hope you have a great week!
Happy Birthday, Jan! What a lovely quote! Wishing you many more turns around the sun! I hope you’re doing something fun today and this week. Love with hugs! Off to take a peek at your website. 🙂
Thank you, Mary. I appreciate the wonderful wishes. Thank you for taking a peek at the website! Have a great week.
Happy birthday, Jan! xo
Thank you, Kymber!
Hi Jan, this is an interesting reading for the week. I like the idea of people going after what they truly want in life. A lovely logo.
It is truly the only way to reach dreams and goals, Robbie. I’m glad you enjoyed the post and thanks for your input on the logo!
Happy birthday, Jan. I love what you said about another journey around the sun. I’ve never thought of birthdays in that regard before.
A good reading and great quote from FDR. I love the dragon card. Congratulations and good luck with your new business venture and your logo is lovely.
Oh, and happy birthday ?
Thank you, Jeanne! I’m glad you enjoyed the post and appreciate the birthday wishes and congrats!
Thanks, Joan. I appreciate the birthday wishes. I can’t remember where I first heard that term regarding a year, but it stuck. Have a great week!
Happiest of birthdays, thus far, Jan! & MANY more!!! <3
Thank you, Annette!
Happy Birthday, Jan! Enjoy your special day. Great quote! xo
Thank you, Jill!
Happy Birthday, Jan. Hope it doesn’t bring you too much action according to that card.
Lol! At my age, I can’t take on too much action. Thanks, Craig.
Happy Birthday, Jan! That’s a great quote to begin another journey around the sun with. I hope you can make it a good one.
Thanks, Dan!
