This is one of the more powerful and beautiful short meditations I’ve found recently. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

The Tarot Reading for the week focuses on our spiritual body.

Do you know how rare it is to have all of one suit come up in a reading? Here we have all Wands, and if you remember from our study of the cards, Wands represent our spirituality, inspiration, determination, strength, intuition, creativity, ambition and expansion, and original thought.

The Four of Wands is a card of joyful celebration, blissful happiness and appreciation for the good things in life. When this card appears in a Tarot reading, it is the perfect time to celebrate with those you love most. In numerology, four symbolizes stability and firm foundations, and with the Four of Wands, you are now enjoying a period of happiness and security. This card indicates a sense of harmony and balance as well as completion and thus denotes a time of peace and contentment in life that comes as the result of hard-fought efforts.

The Eight of Wands is a dynamic card, containing a high level of energy that propels you forward to reach your goals at a much faster pace than ever before. You can expect to be very busy, but this is one of those β€˜good busy’ periods during which you are enthusiastic about the progress you are making. It encourages you to go with the flow; don’t resist it. Everything is moving fast right now, so make the most of this forward momentum to manifest your goals and dreams. Allow the energy of the Universe to flow through you and propel you closer to your goal.Β Be laser-focused with your intentions and actions.

When the Knight of Wands card appears in a Tarot reading, you are charged up with energy, passion, motivation, and enthusiasm, and you channel that energy through your inspired action. You have a clear vision about what you want to create and, fueled by your passion and inspiration, you are now moving forward with leaps and bounds to turn your vision into reality. This card is your sign to go for it!

Wow! That’s a lot of energy!

My Takeaway: Be thankful for your loved ones and celebrate them in your life, then be ready for a big burst of energy that will propel you into whatever you are focused on. Go with the flow and let your passion, motivation and enthusiasm carry you through this week!

On a personal level, I have ditched one writing project temporarily for another story that is demanding my full attention. So, I’m going to take all of this passion and energy and run with it! The working title of the new story is “A Beggar’s Bargain” and it is set in the 1940s. I’m super excited and inspired!

What about you? Are you feeling this energy? Let’s talk!

And look at this gorgeous dragon! Wow! I love the lotus flower in the heart center.

  1. Wow, Jan, a high-energy spread. You’ve been super busy with your tour, so I’m sure that comes in handy. Lots of joyfulness in there too. I wish I had your energy. Lol. Have a wonderfully creative week.

    1. Lol, Diana. I don’t know about my energy. I fake it until I make it. πŸ™‚ Thank you for stopping by and I’m glad you enjoyed the reading. With today being 2/22/22, it’s a powerful energetic day! Those are super numbers!

  2. Such good timing for this uplifting post, Jan. I just got some bad news–not important what it was. What’s important was that your post cheered me immensely. Yay!

    Love the positive mojo. Good luck with your new project. I’d say strike while the creative juices are flowing. Have you ever written stories from another era before?

    1. Thanks, Pete! I wrote a short story set in the 1800s but I’ve never written anything in the 1940 time period. I’m excited about it!

    1. Thank you, Teri. I love that time period and have lots of stories from my folks, but I feel the need for a road trip to Missouri to look over the town and the land. πŸ™‚ I appreciate you stopping by!

  4. Wonderful and hope-filled reading! Love it, Jan. All the best with your new project, I completely relate as I’m doing something similar. πŸ’—

    1. Thanks so much, Gwen. How exciting!! I hope you feel the energy from these cards this week. It’s strong! And tomorrow is a special power day 2-22-22! Enjoy!

  5. Thanks, Jan, for inspiring me with your Tarot Reading. I need all the energy I can get to finish my book, “Skull’s Vengeance.” Hope you have a fantastic week!

    I love all that energy, Jan:) I think I was feeling that when I did a lot of cleaning projects this weekend focusing on my spaces. I’m excited for you that it led you into a new project! Congrats.

    1. That sounds like a productive weekend. I need to take the time to do some deep cleaning and I always think I will after I finish one more project. πŸ™‚ Eventually, I have to shut everything down and clean. Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your good wishes!

  7. I forgot one thing! Congrats on the new project you’re working on. It’s amazing how inspiration often leads us astray. πŸ˜‰

  8. I’ve mentioned before my fascination of tarot reading & how I try to study the cards before proceeding with your post. I immediately noticed that all 3 cards pertained to Wands. I also noticed the hands being raised on the first card. I thought, that looks like a celebration! I say all of that to say this… I love these readings, Jan. I also love that I’m paying attention & learning so much. For that, I thank you. πŸ™‚
    Now as for my take on the reading, I can definitely feel the energy and positivity. I had some hard days last week, but I’m finally feeling back to myself. It’s a good feeling and this reading kinda amps that up.

    1. That is such an awesome observation, Marlena. We can learn so much just by studying the images. It’s taken some time, but I am getting better at reading the cards from the images and from what I’ve learned before I consult the books. It’s always confirmation when I’ve gotten something right. πŸ™‚ Thank you for stopping by and here’s to a great week ahead!!

  9. This reading is perfect as I’m just completing a book that has taken me longer to than normal to write. I’m so pleased with the final product. Very positive cards all around. I love your new story! Wow! The title alone hooked me. I can’t wait to see what pours out of your heart. Love you, sister. πŸ™‚

    1. I know you are going to get a burst of energy once you finish this book and get to start on the new one! I loved these cards. They really reflect what I am feeling and again, they are all chosen at random, so no way I can manipulate them. Thank you for stopping by!! Love you, too!

  10. I’m so glad you’ve found new inspiration in you work. Can’t wait to hear more about it.

    That dragon is gorgeous!

    You know I’m celebrating my loved ones. Lovely reading, Jan. Thank you.

    1. Yes, I do, Staci! That card fits you to a T! I am so excited about this new story and can’t wait for a few minutes to keep working on it! It’s been a while since I’ve felt that kind of passion. Thank you for stopping by! And I agree, the dragon is gorgeous!

  11. I could definitely use some of that energy. Lol! I’m going to embrace it before I feel it, having full faith it will show up at some point this week. Great reading, Jan! πŸ™‚

  12. That’s a lot of positive energy, Jan, and it’s clearly impacting your creativity with your new project. Way to go!
    I’m currently kind of stuck on mine, so I’m going to try to harness some of that energy and run with it.
    And ANOTHER GORGEOUS dragon card!

    1. Exactly, Mae. That is a lot of creative energy for sure. And yes, it is impacting my new project! It’s been a while since I couldn’t wait to get back to writing a story!! Loving it. And yes, another fabulous dragon card. Thank you for stopping by! Here’s to harnessing this beautiful energy!
