The "Novice of Wands", Dedicated to the Task at Hand

Many lakes and forests, a whole lot of nature in my dreams last night.  I awoke with the idea or feeling or that I was camping in a tent in a heavily wooded and serene campground.  I had my tent for sleeping and relaxing in as well as one where I had my own private bathroom so I didn't have to resort to using the public washrooms or outhouses for my personal business.  In lieu of using water to shower with I used shower wipes to keep clean while camping for a few days.  And likely since I was thinking about this before slipping into bed the idea of visiting fairs and exhibitions throughout the province also poked around in my mind once in awhile.  As did Edith and Eugene Tokalot, my vent friends.

Also, upon awaking and getting into my morning ritual mode the notion of taking myself and my ideas, dreams, goals and desires seriously also filled my mind.  If I don't these seriously how can I expect others to.  I'm serious about being a Tarot Intuitive.  I know that I have the talent, skills as well as the spirit to slip into this role and be successful at it because I genuinely want to help others better their lives.  Especially for those who see Tarot as a legitimate source of guidance and advice in their lives.

Spirit Is and today's Pagan Tarot Energy is "Novice of Wands: The suit of Wands and its corresponding element, Fire, is passionate and dedicated to the task at hand, so a young man with red hair represents this Novice.  He wears a long orange robe and necklace.  He intently examines a ritual wand.  A small fire burns nearby.  This Novice can be someone of great focus and enthusiasm.  He is ready to take on any endeavour and give one hundred percent.  He runs the risk of recklessness if he doesn't temper his excitement with a  balanced approach."

This morning I find myself full of "great focus and enthusiasm", "ready to take on any endeavour and give one hundred percent" but knowing that I have to temper his (my) excitement with a  balanced approach.  Balance is needed so that I, we do not get into wishful thinking, pie in the sky scenarios.  I need to stay focused and be willing to take the slow and steady approach instead of trying to rush things through to the end so-to-speak.  One step at a time, okay!

This is a great approach, the right approach as I am very open and receptive to an abundance of ideas and creative inspirations so taking things slow and steady will allow me to better evaluate things such as the pros and cons of any new ideas that come my way as well as with my progress in becoming more intimate and knowledgeable about and with Tarot.  A deepening of my connection with and living in the world of spirit is also taking place but again taking things slowly is the best approach where I allow things to happen at their own pace without trying to force them or move them along at the speed I want them to be moving.

Yes, I do have the power of will and Spirit however I also need to recognise and understand when to use my will and when it needs to take a backseat and let the cosmic forces do their thing in my life.

Thank You Spirit.
