The 8 of Swords and Untangling My Life

I did my best to keep my focus on making cards yesterday.  Well, not actually making cards but stamping as many images as possible and I did a fairly decent job of it.  I kept talking to myself, giving myself pep talks so I was focused on and careful with what I was doing.  Later in the evening I actually set out to make a couple of cards as a couple of the stamped images were not working for me.  However, once I built up a card with them I much more satisfied with the way they look.  I just need to add an embellishment or two and maybe a “Merry Christmas” or “Season’s Greetings” and they will be perfect.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “8 of Swords: The Crowded Subway. Restriction.  Being trapped by your own biases and prejudices.  Feeling lonely in a crowd.

I, at times feel lost and confused, not sure which way to turn.  I know and am thankful for the decent life I have but at times feel unsatisfied or not quite where I should be in life.  I often feel like there is something missing or that I’m missing something, missing the point, that not quite at where I should be.  This feeling is much stronger these days as I’m looking for work and sending out resumes but not hearing anything back—not a huge concern except I have debts to take care of and I cannot shirk my responsibilities to do so as I undertook this debt fully aware of what I was doing.

I’ll work through it though as I do have choices and the power to over these feelings and this situation.  And one of the best ways to do so is with clarity of thought and purpose.  I need a plan, I need to know what I want to do and accomplish!

How about a nice little crafting business?  I can do this as I’m now a talented card maker.  I’ve sold many a card and now have repeat customers so I must be doing something right!

I feel better already.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.
