The Nine of Swords and Ridding Yourself of Worry Once and For All and a Spider Visits

The weekend has arrived giving me another couple of days to pull myself and my spiritual career together and take another few steps away from the job that no longer fits my needs.

Spirit Is and today's Pagan Tarot Energy is the "Nine of Swords: Our Witch is having one of those mercilessly sleepless nights.  Every worry and concern presses down on her.  The weight of the world prevents her from relaxing in any way.  Nor is she being productive...all the crying in the world won't solve any of her problems.  It's likely that you may find yourself having a sleepless night or two.  Be aware that this kind of unproductive worry doesn't solve anything.  You are fully capable of handling these things that are bothering you.  As soon as you do, you'll enjoy restful sleep again."

If stress, worry and maybe a hint of fear are keeping you awake at night the most important thing you should focus on is that "You are fully capable of handling these things that are bothering you."

I know that this is more than true and that weights are truly lifted off of your shoulders and he world looks and becomes a much brighter place and then when you fall asleep, "you'll enjoy restful sleep again."

The best way to handle this is to take control of your life and accept the responsibilities you have.  One big way to do this is to find something that grabs your passion, something you strive for rather than wasting energy on running away from something...it works, I tell you, it really works.

During my lunch break a visitor dropped by unannounced but more than welcome and she stayed with me as I drove from Langley to Abbotsford once I finished lunch.  I'm not sure what type of spider she is but general speaking seeing a spider is about "weaving fate".  Letting me know that I shouldn't "take the roundabout way -- be straight."  That I should 'weave something new' and "trust feeling more than seeing."  Animal-Speak Pocket Guide, Dragonhawk Publishing, Jackson, TN, 2009

So I trust that I'm on the right track and do indeed have important thoughts, ideas and words to contribute to the general discourse out there.  I don't want contribute by standing on a soapbox though.  I want to contribute by example and through spiritual and genuine communication whereby the discussion is authentic, real and heartfelt...truly driven by and guided by Spirit.

Thank You for your visit, my dear spider friend.

Thank You Spirit.
