Daily Draw


Finally, a day off; and a rainy one at that! No going out, (okay, a quick trip to the library, and back), just sort of lazing around, dreaming dreams, thinking about what's next, and curling up in a cozy chair and reading. It's IN the cards!

DAILY DRAW


THEME: Seven of Cups

It's rainy days and Sundays... so the words go... and today is the former and it is a day to dream. The choicfes are many and anyone of my day dreams could, with work, become reality.


GUIDE: Four of Swords

Even within the daily routine of being 'off' there are some small things to be done, but I am guided to relax, and enjoy the rest on a day such as this one affords. The theme flows into this quite nicely.


MEDITATION: Five of Wands

While resting and dreaming, use this time, as well, to meditate on some of the struggles that have popped up. With space away and time to work on coming up with solutions to keeping molehills from becoming mountains. Consider the best way to smooth things over.

SHADOW CARD: Ace of Swords

Welcome to the realm of thought my friends. This underscores the whole day quite well, and allows me to hone my strategic skills. Feed the brain and ideas will materialize more easily.

WHAT IT ALL MEANS:

Tis a day spent in the mind's arena. Resting the body gives time to work out current struggles and with else to do today, clarity of thought will rule the day!

Whistle While You Work


DAILY DRAW


THEME: Two of Pentacles

Balance is the name of the game. Remain in the moments but guide them in the space ships of the imagination. One mundane moment should be balanced by a spirit activity or a turn in the playground.


GUIDE: Six of Cups

Play 'Remembere When,' during the day, as I become involved with something. Take a moment to remember something that particular activity reminds me of.

MEDITATION: Temperance

Remember to not overdo anything. Meditate on the idea of moderation in all thought and action and to balance each out with a moderate opposite thought or action.


SHADOW CARD: The High Priestess

She stresses the idea of keeping a blance, as well, especially between the mundane and the spiritual activity.


WHAT IT ALL MEANS

It means BALANCE, with a capital B and that rhymes with C and that stands for Cool. Walk in balance. One work, one play, and don't forget to remember something I've done like it in each moment.
Be moderate and let the intuition guide the day.

Daily Draw Reflection


DAILY DRAW


THEME: Four of Swords

GUIDE: Page of Swords

I am guided to think clearly today; to listen for and see what messages come my way through other beings in the Realm.

Reflect upon the obstacles I've gone through. Treat each morning as a rite of passage completed. Glide peacefully across to the next shore. I know my Guides are always with me.


SHADOW CARD: The Hermit

It is time to realize I am never in the dark. I carry the light of Spirit and Enlightenment within me. Study the landscape of every moment when I feel stuck and read it like a card. The answers are always right there inside me. Find the spread with which to read the world and the moments in which I dwell.

WHAT IT ALL MEANS:

Take things slowly, and open my mind to the messages in the world. Remember past experiences to help puzzle out the present. Use the FORCE, Luke!

Mabon Daily Draw Reflection


MABON
Daily Draw


THEME: Eight of Swords

My eye is drawn to the rays of the sun coming up from behind the clouds; I am beginning to understand there is a possibility that I am not stuck. If I just move, I will see that I do not have to be, in fact, imprisoned in the clutches of fear, and will be able to work my way out of this rut.


GUIDE: Two of Swords

So, I have moved, and am sitting upon - where I do not know - but I am guided to feel balance returning. I must face my fears in order to maintain this balance, and continue to work my way out of this rut.


MEDITATION: Page of Pentacles

Like the young novice, I know if I meditate upon the symbol of my faith, I will find my way with eyes wide open to the core of my spirit being, and can continue to study, and work.


SHADOW CARD Five of Wands

I must understand, as with all things, there will be a struggle to find my place again. If I work with all aspects, assure all aspects that there is a place for each of them, then all the pieces will fall into place.


WHAT IT ALL MEANS:

My imprisonment is self-created, and in that understanding, I begin to find balance. Keep the faith, and meditate on my purpose, and this will help me work through this current struggle.

Aces High



DAILY DRAW


THEME: Ace of Cups

The day will be filled with all that is good on the emotional front. Moments will be filled with wonder and it will manifest in a generally feel good day.


GUIDE: Ace of Swords

With such good emotion flowing, I am guided to maintain clarity of thought. Use this time to my advantage to plan and organize for the Turning of the Wheel and to convey ideas for things that will help others.


MEDITATION: Six of Pentacles

The Guide lends credence to the idea of 'sharing' (giving to help others) with those who need it; this will bring success for them. Remind them that hard work will pay off. Meditate on what to say and how to say it.


SHADOW CARD: Queen of Pentacles

The Queen will lead the best way to thinking things out; how to do things. Patience is paramount in giving advice. Find the maternal instinct to fulfill my goals to help.


WHAT IT ALL MEANS

With perfect emotional and mental balance, it will help to convey the message I have. Retain a charitable demeanor and remember to think before acting.
