Tarot Time: Reading 19 JUL 09

After reading a friend's Tarot card on Facebook, I pulled out my set and did a reading for myself last night. Now before I go on, I want to say this: Tarot cards are not magic. They do not channel mystical powers. There is NO supernatural or paranormal anything about Tarot cards. They simply act as catalyst to the human imagination. They provide perspectives on how to consider one's life and one's desires. No magic, just ideas.

But HEY! What a powerful outcome!! These cards are really all about creativity and possibilities.

Card one in the Stranger position is the Knight of Wands; the impish jokester, the insatiable sexual satyr who delights in the power to inspire and create. Card two in the Self position continues the theme of creativity. The 3 of Wands is another member of the Fire Arcana and begs one to contemplate the synergy of harmonizing the body, heart and consciousness. Card three is strength in the Friend position. It asks you consider the inner strength you possess and to trust it as you grow into the future. Card four is the second card from the Major Arcana and it's the Empress. In the Family position, it first asks you to contemplate your relationship with your mother, but more importantly how your mother's legacy channels through you to others. Card five in the World position is the 5 of Disks: the Worry card. It does not ordain worry, but rather counsels to be aware of the power of worrying to derail one's dreams, and to remember that the power exists within each of us to set aside worry through focussing on the simple contentment in our life.

In a phrase, the reading says to me: "Go for it!" Now, I just have to figure out what IT is!!!
