The 5 of Coins with Further Guidance from the 10 of Coins

Saturday, January 31, 2015.  We once again had another quiet evening at home last night.  The television was not on very long.  We watched a bit of news and then it was off.  I piddled around with my model railroad after working with Tarot.  Then it was off to bed.

This morning was an early one as I awoke and made my way to the gym after giving thanks for awaking to another day and having all the blessings I have in my life.

Spirit Is and today's visiting Tarot Card is the “6 of Coins: Dependence.  Resentment because of financial dependence on another.  Charity.  An unequal relationship" with further guidance coming from the “10 of Coins: History.  A knowledge of and appreciation for history.  Seeing your concerns in a larger context.  Seeing your life as a story; who is the author."

After quickly engaging Tarot, an extension of who we are, I headed off to the gym.  I struggled with the first couple of exercises but the rest were the usual effort.  Once home I had coffee, breakfast, and a protein bar before piddling around with my model railroad all the while contemplating today's visiting Tarot Card, the “6 of Coins".

Then we headed out to run a few errands and do our weekly grocery run. We made a slight adjustment to our plans so I could accommodate my brother and provided with a taxi and delivery service for the afternoon as his car is sitting dead in his parking stall.

We're now home after accomplishing all that we set out to do and I give thanks for the time with my brother and the safe travels that we had today.

As part of my self-empowerment efforts I realize that the “6 of Coins" is more about taking actions to conserve and protect the planet than finding ways around financial dependence on another.  And realistically speaking I'm not so much financially dependent as I am being blessed by having my housing needs taken care of and living a very financially freeing lifestyle because of this.

Thank You Spirit.

And as a message for the day, I have to say that each of us has to look in the mirror and see if we can change our situations through better management of the resources we have rather than resenting on having to rely on others to support us.  How do we spend our money?  Do we spend it responsibly?

Any smokers out there?  Anyone who has to buy coffee on the way to work rather than make it at home?  Do we out a lot?  Where can we make changes and save ourselves a little bit of money?

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.
