Managing Priorities

/ Twist the Leaf / 1 Comment

Today’s meditation was skipped.  It was suggested by the cards but all I really wanted today was time with Gideon.

Eros TarotToday’s draw is the Two of Pentacles, which is traditionally a representation of balancing different aspects of one’s life, struggling with prioritizing multiple responsibilities or projects, and themes to do with time management. This card can often indicate the ability to adapt to a constantly changing playing ground in one’s life.

The imagery in this card absolutely says to me “both need equal attention”.  Not that I’ve been with a woman in… well, a really long time now. Gideon and I have been together going on 14 years, so at least a bit longer than that.  But, in my experience?  When it comes to pleasure, foreplay, and breasts… both need equal attention.

The card is sexy, but the message?  That is about making sure I’m balancing my needs with my business and my business with time spent with Gideon.  Only through a modicum of balance can I make sure to eek out as much pleasure from the day as possible while still managing to get my responsibilities taken care of.

Gideon’s Challenge

Tenderhearted
tender soul
and tender footed
in the snow
a handful of tears
drip down my face
and knots unfurl
and an
oh so slow pace
but the fresh
crisp air
smooth and clean
eases almost
everything

Valentine’s Day Tarot Reading

Valentine's Tarot Spread - Luna's Light Angel Tarot

How can I accept myself as I am today?

Nine of Coins – Take some time to look at and admire all that you have accomplished and recognize how well off you actually are. Give yourself credit for all that you’ve done.

What can I do to show myself love today?

Four of Cups – Meditate. Let go of your dissatisfaction and disillusionment. Accept that you have done what you can for today, and that it’s out of your hands now until tomorrow. Brooding on the issue is not going to help you, and is forcing you into an unhealthy state.

How can I best express my love today?

Hanged Man Rx, Seven of Wands atop Chariot Rx – Restrain yourself from going gung-ho into “fight mode”. You know you’re in the right, but getting up in arms is not going to resolve things any sooner. You will draw in more bees with honey than vinegar.

Something someone else does to show me love.

Page of Wands – They give you new and exciting things to focus on to take your mind off of the things that you can’t deal with right now. Gideon, in particular, has been working to distract you through your shared passions and new adventures you create together in your play.

Something that will bring more love into my life.

Three of Swords – Acknowledge your pain, sense of betrayal, and disillusionment, and then let it go instead of holding onto it so that it continues to bleed you. Don’t coil yourself around that pain, or it will continue to cut you over and over again.
