Today’s Tarot: Eight of Swords (Imprisonment, Restriction, Oppression) This card can be quite daunting. The figure stands in a circle surrounded by swords. Usually, we take this card to mean she is somehow imprisoned by the swords. Yet, over the years, I’ve been overwhelmed with the number of times, I’ve instead seen the potential within…
Today’s Tarot: Eight of Pentacles. (study, learning, details) You know that old saying that the Devil is in the details? That’s absolutely the case today. Pay close attention to the details. Read, reread, and then re-reread everything. Make sure you have a clear picture of the exact situation in which you find yourself. Another that…
Today’s Tarot: Four of Pentacles (Control, Taking Stock, Being Possessive) The Four of Pentacles always makes me think of grabbing my life’s bull by its horns and the difference between how others view us and how we view ourselves. Let’s take the words self-centered. In our society, we generally have a negative view of someone…
Today’s Tarot: Ace of Swords. (Beginnings, Truth, New Mindfulness). Oh man, I’m glad I pulled this card today. In my personal life, I’ve just had a couple of epiphanies that have led me to make sweeping changes in my life. They have been mostly internal but the external manifestations will come. This card epitomizes beginnings…
Today’s Tarot: Queen of Pentacles. Nurturing, abundance, peace-of-heart. One of my favorite cards, the Queen of Pentacles calls on us to do that which can be so hard. She calls on us to stop rushing, stop stressing, and trust that things are exactly where they are supposed to be. There is a quote, the source…
Today’s Tarot: The World. (Fulfillment, Completion, Integration) (The following is a PG-17 write-up so please refrain from reading or check with your parents if you are younger than that.) Ooh, this is one of my favorite cards (if you are younger than 18, please don’t read the following sentence…) It is like a life orgasm….
Today’s Tarot: Justice (Balance, Truth, Consequences) This can be a challenging card because it calls us out on our stuff. No one can lie to us like we can lie to ourselves. No one can rationalize for us like we can do to ourselves, and no one can take us for granted like we can…
Today’s Tarot: The Star Dreams, Creativity, Inspiration. When I think of the Star card, I think of keeping your feet on the ground while reaching for your dreams. In the card, the figure literally has one foot on land (of practicality) and the other in the water (of dreams). She tells us to stay practical…
Today’s Tarot: Temperance (Balance, Synchronicity, Getting it just right). Imagine you were making marinara sauce. As it simmered, you would periodically grab a taste and see what it needed. A little more garlic? A little more oregano? As you tasted the sauce as it bubbled along in the process of cooking, you would add whatever…
Today’s Tarot: The Lovers. Partnership, union, LOVE! I love this card and yet… it can be tough to decipher. Sure, it means romance, love, passion, lust and all that other good stuff. And, and this is a big and, it also means partnership and connection. The soul-to-soul union that not only feels right but is…
