Celebrate Accomplishments, then Move Forward

MONDAY TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 8/26/2019

Theme, The World. This card is the last card of the Major Arcana, also known as the Fool’s Journey. The Fool has arrived at the end of this journey and stands fully revealed and triumphant. This week, look for opportunities to celebrate your accomplishments and successes so that you can continue to move forward in your work with confidence and a sense of “I did it before; I can do it again.”

Focus, 5 of Cups. Cups is the element of Water in the realm of heart, emotions, dreams, intuition and creativity. Five is mid-way between 1 and 10, a point of challenge, sometimes conflict. Here, the woman sits with her back to the wall protecting her two remaining whole cups. If this is you, will you stay where you are, protecting what you have, afraid to lose more, to receive more rejections or loss? Or, will you get up and move forward, determined to try again, even with the risk involved?

Action, 5 of Wands. Wands is the element of Fire in the realm of spirit, creativity, career and work. This week, once you celebrate your accomplishments and then decide to take the risk and keeping moving forward, you need to establish priorities so that you stop the inner battles about your work. You can’t put your focus and energies into putting your work in the world if you are spending all your time battling with roles or project demands. Be the commander and establish order.

Gift, 6 of Coins. Coins is the element of Earth in the realm of home, health and wealth, anything you can touch, taste or feel. Six is the point past the conflict and challenges of the two fives. Once you commit to moving forward and you’ve established your priorities, then you receive the gift of balance in your energy and resources. The energy you put into your work comes back to you. You don’t waste your energy worrying or being distracted by too many demands all at once. You put focused energy into your work and receive the reward back.
