Pay Attention

Today’s meditation was skipped.

Il Tarocco Bizzarro Di Franco Bruna - Il Bagatto - The MagicianToday’s draw is the Magician card, which is traditionally a representation of capability, potential, resourcefulness, action, and manifestation

In the imagery for this card, the magician has all his tools before him and the infinity above his head shows that he is more than capable… but he’s not looking at what he’s doing and is trying to fill a cup while the cup is turned upside down. This speaks to me of inattention being the issue with how things aren’t going quite right for the man, rather than a lack of equipment or skill.

The message in today’s card is that you’ve got all the skills and tools you need, but you need to make sure that you’re paying attention to what you’re doing to make things work in your favor.

#DiscordTarotholicsJun2022 Challenge Prompt
Topic for June 20th: About the past…

Dixit Game Cards Memories Expansion PackReading Summary: Too many of your brilliant ideas (Left Card) have been shot down (Center Card) by an unfeeling master (Right Card).

Take Away: Growing up this was a common story for you as your parents were both far more interested in their own prerogative than in yours, your interests, or your feelings for that matter. You were expected to conform, and when your ideas stepped outside of conformity they were quickly smothered by the parental unit.

This is a pattern that needs examining more closely, as it speaks to why you have such a hard time picking and choosing which great ideas you have today to pursue, and which to set aside. You struggle because you want to explore them all, and you attribute those “shot down” feelings of your past to the ideas that need to be set aside.

#TarotForGrowthSeptember prompt 19 … Purpose

/ Twist the Leaf / 1 Comment

For the hell of it, I did the #TarotForGrowthSeptember prompt today from Instagram.   I know this is actually a 3rd post for the day, but I’d actually intended on including this in my card for the day post that I made this morning.  I just forgot.

20190919

Question: What message does my spirit have for me about my purpose?

Reading Summary: In times of worry, troubles, or strife, my creativity and the joy that I take in it will guide the way from darkness into the light.

Take Away: Sometimes when I am in the midst of personal struggles, I forget the spiritual value of what I do in my business.  There is a reason behind why I decided to sell my artwork, and that reason goes beyond the making of money.

The creation of the jewelry I make involves the gifting of a part of my soul.  In the creation, a small bit of me that  I share with the world is put into each of the pieces I make and sent out into the world, one small bit at a time.  When I make these pieces, each is made with the intention of bringing the recipient pleasure or joy.  It makes me feel good to contribute this to the world, and in doing so, improve the lives of others in some small way.

Self Care Saturday (on Sunday)

As I’ve mentioned before, these readings are (not usually) bearing in on any one thing or event in my life, as the question used is asking for a more general outlook. This is a self care exercise, and are not meant as a predictive reading.

The question is… What do I need to focus on in the week ahead?

Earth – Ace of Pentacles – New opportunities in manifestation and abundance for 2nd week in a row. The little girl happily swinging, shining bright in her glass bubble is an indication of inspiration and enjoyment in exploring these new opportunities from a secure place.

Air – King of Cups – Seek out Gideon when my mind becomes too chaotic and anxieties threaten to take over. Remember he is a safe place to take refuge and a breather.

Water – Ten of Swords – If I don’t work on finding balance instead of bulking up my defenses, things are going to run the risk of going catastrophically wrong emotionally.

Fire – Queen of Swords – I often view the Queen of Swords as cold and restrained.  The clarification card expands on this theme for a message concerning caution and restraint in sharing inspiration with others in order to protect your interests.

Moving Away From – The Staff & Beauty Way – These cards in the “moving away from” position indicate that finding balance, positivity, and optimism will be a bit of a challenge over the next week.

Heading Toward (and Moral of the Story) – Middle World – Now is a good time for new endeavors, as the world and its energies support you. But, take caution to not be reckless or careless with your resources or confidences.

#TarotForGrowthSeptember prompt 14 … Patience

/ Twist the Leaf / 1 Comment

For the hell of it, I did the #TarotForGrowthSeptember prompt today from Instagram.

Question: How can I develop better patience with myself?

Reading Summary: Let out that magical childlike wonder and magical inspiration that sparks fire within the depths of my soul. It’s okay to have fun and play, even while you work hard at that which supports you.

Take Away: I’ve been pushing so hard on focusing on the business and separating myself from the more emotional and fun-loving side of things. For some reason this has been a really strong focus for me recently, and I’ve been highly judgemental with myself for the struggle involved. I’ve lost sight of the FUN that is a part of my business and my craft. It’s time to get back in touch with that aspect.

What this reading is saying is once I am able to get back in touch with the -fun- of my business and craft again, my harsh inner critic over my lack of enthusiasm will ease up.

The question is… What do I need to focus on in the week ahead?

Earth – Ace of Pentacles – It is time to again set your eyes upon your financial and business goals. Keep your focus and clarity will come along with the manifestation of what is desired.

Air – Ten of Pentacles – Peace of mind concerning my stability and security of hearth and home as well as the business and finances. Be sure to pay attention, as some beliefs are mistaken and will need assessing for this stability and security to manifest past the mind into reality.

Water – Four of Wands – The drop will soon lift.  Enjoy the time of peace and harmony that follows, and don’t take it for granted.  Languish in its comforting warmth.

Fire – Eight of Pentacles – Reiteration of the draw for Earth. Stay focused and diligent on your goals.  Don’t get distracted by curiosity and pretty things.

Moving Away From – The Child – A time of innocence and uncertainty. Leave behind the fumbling and replace it with surety.

Heading Toward – The Witness – Acknowledge preconceptions and learn by observation and example of others.

Moral of the Story – Clarity and focus are your friend. Pay attention and examine your motives and beliefs, so that you can be sure to manifest what you really want.
