I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday here in the United States. I took a break from blogging to spend time with family, and it was a wonderful reboot.
I love this quote from John Irving. It takes searching and courage.
I found this meditation to be gentle and uplifting, and hope you will, too.
And now for what the Tarot cards have to say for the week ahead.
The Knight of Wands indicates the time has arrived to take action on your ideas or projects. Consider this a green light to begin. Once you take the first step, everything else will begin to speed up to propel you in the direction you have chosen. As with all of the Knights, this one exudes confidence and purpose. He is telling you to have confidence in yourself, your ideas, and your ability to deliver. If you’ve been feeling blocked or stagnant, the energy from this card comes to reignite the spark of your passion.
The Eight of Wands is all about movement and quick action. Incoming news may spark a series of events that change your trajectory. You find yourself where you need to be and in the company of the right people. Flow with the current. Events move quickly and everything falls into place without you needing to push for a particular outcome. Relax and ride the wave of excitement.
The Eight of Swords dispels the forward momentum and excitement of the two wand cards. It indicates a feeling of being trapped or restricted either by circumstances, the past, or your own internal fears of uncertainty. You may find yourself making excuses for why you can’t move forward or holding everything inside, feeling powerless to make a change. The advice here is to have faith and be patient with yourself. This process takes patience and perseverance, but you can do it!
MY TAKEAWAY:
At first, I thought the Eight of Swords would make more sense in the first position of the reading, but that’s not where it landed. There is a lot of energy around the Wand cards with new exciting ideas and passions that can come to a grinding halt with the Eight of Swords. What I feel about this is to go with the feelings of passion and forward momentum and not allow yourself to get stopped by your own outward circumstances or inner fears. Power through and let the passion flow.
I hope it makes sense to you. What are your thoughts?
This is a gorgeous Unicorn card with a great message. Signs and symbols are all around us every day. This card reminds us to be aware and stay mindful.
