Today’s meditation was skipped.

Today’s draw is the Animal of Blood (the equivalent of the Knight of Wands), which is traditionally a representation of an active beta energy, personality, or person in the area of one’s drive, willpower, motivations, values, principles, and determination.

What more primal motivation is there other than the base determination to survive? Here in the imagery of this card we see that most primal instinct spurred into action as a giant angry bear towers over a man with a spear in hand. Only through determination and willpower backed by that basic desire to survive can the man make it out of this situation.

Today’s card asks us to examine where in our life do we need to fight for survival? What is it that needs our attention? What needs us to pour our energy into it in order to make it happen?

Are you safe? Are your needs being met? If not, what fire within you needs to be lit in order to make sure these things become a priority and are taken care of?

Questions for September 4th thru 6th – SLOW DOWN

In what area could I slow down to honor my personal space?

Take some time to examine what you think you know (Eight of Swords). You are being too rigid in places where you could afford to loosen up (Six of Pentacles).

Being able to loosen up can sometimes take trust. If you’re too tense, things just don’t go smoothly and not everybody gets what they need. In order to achieve harmony and truly honor your personal space, there needs to be a good balance between trust and caution, not blind resistance.

What is something that I would be better off without {for now}?

For now, make sure that you’re focusing on what you need and want rather than the collective around you (Six of Wands Rx). You have the ability to fulfill those needs (The Magician), but not if you’re constantly trying to people please others all the time.

What can help me embrace a calmer flow in support of personal balance?

Knight of Pentacles and Four of Pentacles – Slow down and enjoy the ride.

Question: How can I help “moving day” go more smoothly this week?

Reading Summary: Pay attention to the uncertainty running rampant on moving day (Anchor card). You can help others see the positive aspects of what is developing and lift up their spirit from one of uncertainty into creative abundance (Spirit of Jewels and Bones of Jewels look up and to the left toward the red Abundance card). You are there to lend stability, understanding, and assistance during this time of uncertainty (Man of Nature looks directly at the Anchor card, and the Anchor card looks back at him in turn).

Take Away: Your presence will provide a grounding affect for others that are feeling the anxiety of  moving day as it takes place. Use this influence to help those in need of it see the opportunities for abundance and creative self expression that the day is providing.

I had a nice nap to recharge today and have tried to take it easy and let myself relax a bit today.
