Today’s meditation was skipped, although after pulling decks, I did take a bit of time to lie down with my legs up the wall and relax.  Not meditation, but a little peace and quiet down time regardless.

Today’s draw is the Page of Coins, which is traditionally a representation of a receptive omega energy, personality, or person in the area of one’s finances, resources, health, home, and manifestations.

Okay so, I look at the abacus in this imagery and I think of what I am doing today with my time.  That is… pulling decks for February. That means sorting out a specific 54 decks out of the over 3k that I have now.

It’s… a process, to be sure.  Especially since they are primarily in steamer trunks and bins at the moment until I get the new shelves up (end of March at the latest, I hope).

The message today (from the imagery of the abacus combined with the jewelry) is to look at this work as a chance to enjoy just how fortunate I have, and take pleasure in the process rather than simply waxing poetic about how much my back hurts after lifting all those trunks and bins.

Mr Lionharts’ #TheJanuaryTarot Wheel of 22 Challenge Prompt
Questions for January 28th thru 30th

What dreams have I neglected that are part of my journey?

Two of Coins – Finding balance between work and home. Between my drive and my need for self-care. Over the holiday season this effort towards balance was set aside entirely. Now that the holidays are over it’s time to get back on the ball where this is concerned.

One of the things that this involves is the need to get some time off scheduled on the calendar so that I can’t keep putting it off when I need it.

How can I best focus on what matters to me {right now}?

Page of Wands – Make it a passion, but recognize that it is also learning experience to put yourself first and juggle this with those things that inspire you. This card echoes back to the previous, and is a reminder that being motivated is important… being inspired is important, but you still need to take care of yourself at the same time.

Today I will {begin to} move in the direction of my dreams by…

Eight of Swords – … being attentive to what I have as I go about my work. Today’s project is pulling February’s cards. As I go through the trunks and bins today, I need to pay attention to what is in each one more closely. Next month… or possibly March, I will begin filling bookshelves with these decks. It will be much easier to do this the more familiar I am with where everything is.

I didn’t completely finish finding all the decks I need, but when my back said it was time to stop, I also didn’t keep pushing as I normally would.  I stopped and allowed my back some time to rest. I’m 3 decks short of the complete list.  I’ll find the others tomorrow.
