A Personal Journey Through the Tarot: Queen of Wands

Today I draw the Queen of Wands and fearlessly move forward with my life’s plans. Doubters be dammed, let the fires of creativity burn away criticism. If it doesn’t work the first, second or third time, try, try again!

A Personal Journey Through the Tarot: 8 of Wands

Today I draw the Eight of Wands and contemplate the movement of the Universe. Our Galaxy, our sun, our world are all spinning and flying through space at incredible speed. We can either go with it, flying boldly towards the future, or we can enact a crazy unbalanced force to try to stop it in a futile attempt to stay in the past.

A Personal Journey Through the Tarot: 5 of Swords

Today I draw the Five of Swords and reflect upon the my last argument. Was it my way or the highway? Was the point worth the pain and suffering I caused? Fighting is easy; am I strong enough to apologize?

A Personal Journey Through the Tarot: 5 of Pentacles

Today I draw the 5 of Pentacles and reflect upon my privilege. I am hugely grateful for the luck of the draw to be born a Canadian. I am forever grateful to live in a society that wants to educate and medically care for its citizens. I am eternally grateful I live in a country that believes everyone, regardless of race, religion, gender, or status, deserves a life of equality and opportunity.

A Personal Journey Through the Tarot: Knight of Swords

Today I draw the The Knight of Swords and consider my motivation. Am I acting out as a quick fix or do I have a plan of action laid out that will take me where I want to go? Am I a fool rushing in where angels fear to tread?

A Personal Journey Through the Tarot: Justice

Today I draw Justice and reflect upon my sense of equity. Is everyone in the situation being treated fairly and with dignity? Am I expecting special treatment anywhere or am I allowing the situation to unfold on an even playing field?

A Personal Journey Through the Tarot: 2 of Pentacles

Today I draw the 2 of Pentacles and reflect upon my endeavours. Am I supporting my dream or have I sacrificed it to support others? Have I found a happy balance between what must be done and what I want to do? Do I feel obligated to juggle everyone else’s balls but my own?
