Today's Tarot 3/6/12

Six of Pentacles, Death (again, not the physical kind). Today, it’s about balancing what you have vs what you don’t have and what you need vs. what you want. Just because you want that new purse, car, shoes, DVD, whatever, doesn’t mean you need it. Unless, you do. Did the car break for the last time? Is it time to let it die a dignified death? If so, then perhaps it’s time to break out Craig’s List and see what’s out there. Otherwise, it’s time to pull in, suck it up, and deal with the issues at hand. Because, frankly, things are coming to a head and you don’t want to arrive late to this particular party. You need to make yourself aware of all the ins and outs of whatever’s going on or you will be left out in the cold. You see, some major thing is about to go kaput. If you aren’t prepared for it, you will be playing catch-up and you will be stuck in uncertain times. It is far better to be sure today, than it is to wring your hands and wonder. So, get out there, ask your questions, get your answers, and kick some butt.

An additional thought: Sometimes, we have to go to deeper, darker places in order to get to that light, the spark, of an idea. We have to descend into our own soup, as it were. It’s ok to go there, as long you leave yourself breadcrumbs to find your way back. There is information for you in your sad/dark/unhappy places. That doesn’t mean you need to take up permanent residence, but if you need to find out what is causing the darkness, then go seek it, find it, and handle it.
