Today’s meditation was once again interrupted. This time by my mother in need of technical support for both her computer, printer, and her iPad. I managed to help her with two out of the three, so she was able to use the iPad to print what she needed. But, I was unable to help her with the computer and she’s going to need someone to take it in for repair. I think she needs a boot disk, and I am absolutely certain she doesn’t have one.
So… I will be including a meditation into my bedtime routine again tonight.
Today’s draw is the Page of Wands, which traditionally is a representation of a receptive omega energy, personality, or person in the areas of one’s drive, ambitions, passions, and innovations. This often displays itself in themes involving inspiration, renewed enthusiasm, and an exponential potential for growth.
What stands out to me today in this card is the “posture of discovery” that the rabbit is portraying in relation to the wand in his hands… and the little rabbit head at the top of the staff that, to me, indicates a sense of familiarity and communion. It also feels significant that the bunny is barefoot, as it conveys a certain amount of vulnerability.
The message in today’s card is that it would be a good idea to take a look at the every day and the familiar in my life. These things can be taken for granted, but can in truth also be great motivators and refresh the spark of inspiration when given a chance. The vulnerability aspect has to do with being open to that inspiration, instead of “keeping your head down” and trudging onward because that is often what feels safest.
I relate really strongly to this message today, as I spent a great deal of my day on the farm helping them restructure their planting and harvest plans for this year to adjust to the diminished demand for perishables due to the extremely diminished demand from the restaurant industry combined with people’s reaction to the pandemic spurring their desire to stock up on non-perishables rather than purchasing fresh produce at the same rate as in previous years.

Question: What fulfills me?
Reading Summary: Whether my intuition is full on (High Priestess) or is being blocked by emotions or other issues (Page of Cups Rx), I am fulfilled by my efforts to help others (The Hierophant) to be proactive in moving forward upon their own path (Temperance Rx).
Take Away: One of the things that greatly fulfills me is helping others find their path and move forward upon it. Their paths are very rarely the same as my path, but that really doesn’t matter. It’s about helping them find what works for them, which is something that I feel capable of doing even when my intuition is blocked… but most especially when it’s not.

#DiscordTarotholicsMay2020 Challenge Prompt
Question: How can I improve upon the person I am now?
Reading Summary: Don’t allow the lack of alone time (The Hermit) to steal away (Seven of Swords) my commitment (Page of Cups) and enthusiasm for leaning into (Queen of Wands) the emotional growth I’m currently experiencing (Previous Reading).
The Queen of Wands and the Page of Cups hearkens back to a reading I did for myself with this same deck on May 5th, where jumpers gave me the exact same cards which landed in the exact same positions on the board when first pulled as they did today. That reading was about allowing my emotional exploration and growth to have some free reign, and the repeat of these cards in today’s draw holds a message to remind me of that reading and build upon it with this one.
Take Away: Yesterday I had a good deal of business themed readings. This reading is a reminder not to allow what needs to be done for the business to distract me from the emotional growth and exploration I’ve made the decision to embracing.
