The '7 of Wands' and a Worthwhile Struggle

Sunday, December 20th, 2015.  We ventured out to White Rock mid-morning so I could pick up a couple of model railroad supplies I ordered awhile back as the supplier called me twice and emailed me once about picking up these two items so I thought that yesterday was the day to get it over and done with.

On our way we made a pit stop at our favourite grocer and picked up our weekly food supplies, a lighter week with it being Christmas and all so it was a quick and easy stop.  We also had lunch out.  We relaxed for most of the afternoon doing not much of anything before venturing out to friends for their annual "Seasonal Party".  I must have set my watch wrong yesterday after putting in a new battery as we thought we were leaving relatively early at 9:30pm but it was in fact 10:30pm....aaarrrggghhh.

Spirit Is and today's Tarot Energy is the “7 of Wands: Fighting the wind.  A Quixotic struggle.  Winning against the odds.  Confrontation.”

Sometimes, the biggest and hardest struggles we have are with ourselves and this is what I'm finding in my own life.  Trying to balance all of the competing situations, circumstances, elements and demands in my life gets to be rather difficult and tiring at times but I'm plodding along so I can get to where I want to be in within the next twelve months or so.  And at times, I must admit it can be fun and even quite enlightening so it's all good.

If you find yourself in a struggle of sorts maybe take a step back and analyze the situation from a new angle.  Perhaps, you'll find a new way to cope or another way to work around your dilemma or perhaps find a way to transcend it where it becomes a slight battle scar and a new source of strength for you.  The “7 of Wands" points to a good outcome source there is your/our source of hope.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The 7 of Wands, Lammas, and Struggling to Reach Dreams

Happy Blessed Lammas.  The first harvest of the season is upon us.  The Sun is waning and darkening of days is upon us.  How quickly seasons change and the brightening days pass but it is the continual turning of the wheel.  Thank You Spirit.

Yesterday was another slow and productive day.  I wish I could use more hours than I allow myself to but such is life.  I work with the hours I give to myself, learn from what I do and give much thanks for the experience and spiritual growth that comes with it.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “7 of Wands: Fighting the wind.  A Quixotic struggle.  Winning against the odds.  Confrontation.”

With courage, conviction, and determination success is within reach.  The struggle is a long and difficult one but one worth working through to the end, to the goals and dreams that are very much within reach, just moments away…I give thanks for having such opportunities before me and am humbled by the blessings I have and continue to receive.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

7 of Wands

I had a rough time sleeping for a short while, not sure what was up but sleep eventually overcame and I awoke around 7:00am.  We had an evening out last night, meeting a friend for dinner at La Casita before taking in the movie “NO”.  Both dinner and the movie were enjoyed.  We all made it home without incident.  Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “7 of Wands: Fighting the wind.  A Quixotic struggle.  Winning against the odds.  Confrontation.”  Hhhmmm...this card baffles me at the moment but I’ll let it percolate and see what happens throughout the day.  But, if anything I get the feeling that I have struggles coming up that I will work through and overcome.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Belief and Faith

I slept very well last night so well in fact that I slept right through the night.  I was having weird but good dreams I guess involving our friends and neighbours downstairs. Then I started awaking and the dream faded into nothingness.

We have been experiencing a slight bug problem for th|e past several weeks and may have discovered why last night when after dinner and a shower I started cleaning out another cupboard that seemed to be housing quite a few bugs.  I discovered their breeding ground and home in a box of “red River” cereal.  At first when I peered inside the box I just noticed that the cereal was clumpy but then movement – aaahhh bugs.  So we emptied the cupboard entirely and washed it down leaving everything out overnight.  I put the things away and have not seen any bugs this morning.   Maybe they’ve taken up residence somewhere else.

Spirit is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “7 of Wands: Fighting the wind.  A quixotic struggle.  Winning against the odds.  Confrontation.”  I need to hold my head up, high, my courage strong, my will never-ending and my desire ever strengthening so I can overcome this ‘quixotic’ struggle once and for all.  I need to believe and have faith that I am succeeding, that my dream is alive and well and I’m living it this very moment.  My home is my RV most of the time and this home I’m in now is my refuge, my fortress, my security blanket when times get tough and I need to feel my partner next to me.

Thank you Spirit.

Blessed Be

Repeating Card of the Day???

Sunday, October 28, 2012.  I slept quite well even with awaking a couple of times.  I think I could have slept longer if I just turned over and relaxed but I instead decided to and did get out of bed.  Last night as I was using the bathroom sometime around 8pm I noticed the towels were swaying or swinging back and forth and my immediate thought was Spirit, then perhaps a strong wind, or a small earthquake.  As it turns out an earthquake struck off the northern coast of the province at a magnitude of 7.7.  Were the swinging towels a result of this or Spirit or perhaps even both?

Spirit is and today’s visiting Tarot card is a repeat visitor and his message is very important, the “7 of Wands: Fighting the wind.  A quixotic struggle.  Winning against the odds.  Confrontation.”  I must not give up and I really need to muster up the courage to do what is needed of me, of myself in order to push forward with my dreams however foolish or unrealistic they may appear to be.  They are my dreams, they are tangible, real dreams and I’ve wanted to live out these dreams for a very long time so I mustn’t give up on them or myself.  I can do this.  I am doing this.  I did it!


Thank You Spirit.


Monday, October 29, 2012.  I pretty much slept right through the night, only briefly awaking once when my partner got out of bed and another earlier in my sleep cycle.  I never even had to use the bathroom.  I could have probably slept longer but it was almost 7am so I decide to get up and out of bed.

We had a nice visit with a friend yesterday afternoon and evening and dinner was very good.  It’s a recipe out of the “Memories of Cuba” cookbook that is a combination or ham, bacon, garlic, onion, corn, green pepper, cabbage, and tomatoes either whole, diced or in sauce form.  All of these are combined with salt, pepper, and cooking sherry.  We served it over rice instead of cooking the rice with the rest of the ingredients.

Spirit is and today’s visiting Tarot card is again, the “7 of Wands: Fighting the wind.  A quixotic struggle.  Winning against the odds.  Confrontation.”  I have to commit myself 110% to the pursuit and realization of my dreams and goals.  My solutions to any problems must be well thought out and committed to in a way that the solution is well executed and done to the best of my abilities.  I must strive for dare I say perfection.  Here I am thinking both about my remodel and repairs to the RV as well as when making my cards and other crafts.  I must be fully involved and paying attention to the tasks at hand, no thought of other things when I must and should be working on one thing at a time.

Thank You Spirit.

I hope I am understanding the importance of the "7 of Wands" appearing now three days in a row and 4 out of the last seven days however I'd like to ask for others, your insight into this just in case I'm missing something.  Your advice, suggestions and what not are greatly appreciated and I sincerely thank you for your comments.

Blessed Be.
