The Burn of Ambition

Today’s meditation was skipped.

The Nigel Jackson Tarot - Queen of SwordsToday’s draw is the Queen of Swords, which is traditionally a representation of a receptive alpha energy, personality, or person in the area of one’s thoughts, intellect, education, instinct, and communication. This is the energy of support and sharing through knowledge, experience, and advice. It is where ideas are fostered and encouraged.

The Queen of Swords is often seen as a sharp and gold energy, and although I see sharpness in this imagery, I do not see coldness.  Instead I see flames and fire.  I see someone that has become so focused on what they deem important that everything else including social niceties and politeness has been burned away.

Today’s card poses the question… where in your life have your ambitions and focus become so laser sharp that you’ve forgotten to cushion your words with kindness? Where do you need to ease  up on the pushing of others to reach their potential so that there is also room to encourage them to pursue their own joys and interests?
