The 5 of Coins and Helping Others Because It's the Right Thing to Do

Had odd dreams that I had strong feelings about not exactly sure what they were about though, not job related but equipment and technically related.  And something to do with Spirituality and Tarot.  All throughout the night I had an inkling that I was involved in some sort of spiritual works.  I awoke several times almost disappointed that I was being taken away from important work and if I remember correctly I returned to the same scene all throughout my sleep, or was I even sleeping?

Spirit Is and today's Tarot Energy is the “5 of Coins: Hard Times.  Material difficulties.  Lack of money.  People in adversity helping each other."

The “5 of Coins", where people should be willing to help people.  Adversity can take many forms however this is the “5 of Coins" so the adversity hinted at is financial or health or perhaps, even both, for sure, it has to do with something in the physical plane.  It could even be us helping planet earth by doing more to conserve energy, limit/reduce waste and excess, reduce our consumption of fossil fuels and other pollutants harmful to not only Earth but ourselves.

Thank You Spirit.

The 'Two of Swords' and Hard Choices?

Sunday, March 27, 2016.  Mindfulness was our word of the day yesterday as a health piece on the local news discussed this and reminded my partner of an article in the college paper that also discussed this.  I mentioned that this is very well known in pagan, wiccan and new age circles and has been for a very long time.  So we both practiced mindfulness throughout the day and what an enjoyable each of us had in both our separate activities and things we did together.

Spirit Is and today's Pagan Tarot Energy is the "Two of Swords: Our Witch sits on a park bench under a waning gibbous moon.  She holds two swords crossed over her arms while a fellow Witch stands behind her, covering her eyes.  She isn't in danger or alarmed in any way.  The Swords represent two choices.  She must pick one.  By covering her eyes, her friend is helping her weigh the choices based only on the feel of each sword and by her reason.  You are facing a choice.  The best way to approach this choice is to tune out everything that is not directly related.  Get a sense of the essence of the two choices.  Do not look at them in relation to anything else.  Make your decision based on the choices themselves and your own logic."

Making a choice, a decision based on the choice itself or the choices themselves...hhhmmm...what is or what are the choices I am facing?

One choice that comes to mind is the "job".  Do I keep working at a place that robs and is demeaning for many employees or do I take leave of this job and take my chances as Wizard Oron: Spiritualist, Spiritual Coach, Tarot Intuitive, Chakra Worker and Mystical Researcher?  Or do I seek out another job that may or may not be any better than the one I have now?  Or do I stay at the current job and make a stand up for my fellow employees and seek better treatment for us all, as I find myself struggling to walk through that door each and every morning?

If I'm truly honest with myself, I think (realistically know) the decision has already been made.  But do I have the courage to follow through with it?

Hhhmmm...Tarot by Donation is floating through my mind.  But getting back to my need to make a choice, the choice is made and that is that I cannot keep the job I currently have so I'm putting it out there and asking for help so I can free myself from the encumbrances of a job that no longer serves me or my needs.  I need to move forward in the pursuit of my goals and I'm asking the universe for help.  Not only do I need to live more fully through the pursuit of my passions I also need to as I said about a week ago, to make more time for my family: Dad, brother, sister, niece, nephew and brother-in-law.  And the universe responds and guides me as to go about leaving the job and taking up my long sought after spiritual career.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

...that's when it hit me...

Tuesday, March 22, 2016 at 3:23pm.  While running some errands a few minutes ago, that's when it hit me...the thought and softly spoken sentence, just under my breath..."I've never been more comfortable than I am at this very moment with being who I am, Wizard Oron."

Wizard Oron...spiritualist, spirit seeker, spiritual coach, tarot enthusiast, tarot intuitive, tarot reader, tarot storyteller, skilled listener, mystical researcher and frequent visitor of the non-rational world.

The '5 of Wands' and Striving to Be Better

Friday, March 4, 2016.  An odd night of sleep.  Dreams were confusing and one dream kept re-occurring or something of that nature.  We were going to a large gathering of some sort that was taking place in a large ballroom.  No one appeared to be dressed in anything other than their everyday clothes so it was a casual affair.  This dream was interspersed with images of my job and things that had to get done there.  And the night seemed to go on forever.  I awoke a few times and kept wondering when it would be time to awake and get out of bed...highly unusual for a work day.  Such eagerness is usually reserved for weekends and other day's off.

Today's Gay Tarot Energy is “5 of Wands: The Hockey Game.  The project meets resistance.  Testing one’s ideas against others.  An enjoyable struggle.  Competition in the marketplace."

Going to hit the internet and browse a few paper publications to check out the competition, if you will.  I'm contemplating a visit to a Tarot Reader/Intuitive to get a good feel for the dynamics of a reading as done by others and see what guidance I can receive as well.  Besides, it's not really competition from where I stand as we all play a role in expanding the light, love, and peace that Spirit has to offer.  Each of us specializes in connecting with unique individuals that desire to learn more and open up the possibilities that life has to offer.

Such energy is just a poke to get us to pay attention and not get too comfortable or lazy in what we do.  We always strive to be better a more in tune with and attuned to Spirit.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The 'Two of Bows, Decision' and Universal Energy Changing the Direction of Life

Sunday, February 21, 2016.  Sleeping with a piece of amethyst under my pillow has definitely improved my sleep.  I've been sleeping with amethyst under my pillow for a week and a bit and have noticed a significant improvement in my sleeping pattern, the depth of my sleep, the quality of my sleep, as a well as in the significance and detail of my dreams.  This morning I awoke twenty minutes past seven.  A more natural time for I, Wizard Oron to awake.

Thank You Spirit.

Today's Wildwood Tarot Energy is the "Two of Bows, Decision: The bow represents not just the potential energy latent within any situation, but the need to direct and manage that energy to achieve your goals.  This can mean first movement towards reinvigorating and reforming the relationship with life.  It requires the decisive will to step across a threshold and take control in a positive and proactive manner.  Sometimes this may require a reclaiming and remaking of the mental and emotional tools and energies that are required to move on in life.  By preparing to step up and through the gateway and make a choice to allow forward momentum to flow naturally, the fashioning of a new mental discipline or processes, or the reawakening of a previously effective but abandoned one, may be required.  By summoning and directing the powerful, healing energies available to you, the rough-hewn bow stave can be grasped and the process of shaping and crafting your destiny can begin.  You stand at a crucial crossroads from which you can now move forward with confidence.  Once the decision to take control of these elements and harness and direct your power is made, a new paradigm of possibilities is released.  These energies will need skilful harnessing and responsible management to reach their full and effective potential."

My initial reaction to viewing the "Two of Bows, Decision" is that a hard decision has been made at least on the subconscious and energetic level on the direction my life is going to be taking moving forward from today.  I have a strong sense and perhaps an innate knowledge that the cosmos, the universe is behind and forcing this change, if you will in my life.  It's a direction I want to go in however I just was not sure how to change directions but the change has been made for me.


However, with having said that, it is now more than ever, incumbent on me to harness and more precisely direct this energy so I can nurture what the universe has given me into the spiritual career that is now my for the taking.  This desire first flickered within me back in about 2002/2003 but thankfully has re-emerged and provided me with renewed hope, strength and courage to see it through to the end, as in having landed in a career of spiritual coaching, intuitive tarot, and chakra work.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

'8 The Stag' and Taking Control of My Life

Saturday, February 20, 2016.  Had a decent night of sleep even with awaking here and there and then by the time 5:30 I was wide awake and my eyes wide open of free of any sleepiness or tiredness for that matter.  I would have to say that I was almost raring to go.

Spirit Is and today's Wildwood Tarot Energy is "8 The Stag.  On a personal level, some kind of adjustment or interaction has taken place.  The key word here is 'responsibility'.  We must, as individuals, constantly observe the rules and regulations of society, and these can fluctuate as the views and knowledge of civilization change.  Whether on a political or moral level, we subconsciously know when a realignment of our perception is due.  This is a time to welcome the justice that has arrived with the coming of spring and the fire of creation.  Face the coming season with honesty and integrity and trust to right and appropriate action."

"Honesty and integrity" have been top of mind since I awoke yesterday.  I need to act with "honesty and integrity" in everything that I do and I must strive to be honest and true to myself and all that I wish to do and accomplish in life.  Responsibility for my life rests solely on and with me so if my isn't what I want it to be I only have to look at myself and the decisions I've made to see and understand why my life is the way it is today.

Yes, outside circumstances beyond our control may come into play however we can still weave and wend our way around and even transcend such difficulties if we really and truly put our minds to the test and see what we're made of.

And if anything the least we can do is to start fresh today, this very instant by declaring 'this is my life and now I take control of it and I accept and take responsibility for all that I do from this day forward.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

'9 of Cups' and a Change of Scenery

Thursday, February 18, 2016.  What a honour and privilege it is to sleep at night.  I'm loving my dreams and sometimes I feel like I'm sleeping for days with all of the lengthy dreams I have at night.  I wonder if it has anything to do with the Amethyst Crystal under my pillow?

Spirit Is and today's Gay Tarot Energy is the “9 of Cups: Serendipity.  Satisfaction.  Everything is going well.”

I loved seeing this card this morning however my work day made it seem nothing like "Serendipity.  Satisfaction" or that "Everything is going well.”  As the job day ended my head was spinning, I didn't know whether I was coming or going and hardly knew my own name or who I am.  What a crazy whirlwind of a day!

Now that I am home however and have had time to sit chill and debrief with my partner the day is a definitely a “9 of Cups" day full of "Serendipity" and "Satisfaction" where "Everything is going well.”

A simple change of scenery and being at home in a loving environment strips away and dissolves the stress and anxiety of a dizzying work day!

And gets me back in touch with who I am, Wizard Oron and knowing that this job is only temporary and that soon enough I'll be engaged in doing everything that I love to do and being happy doing it!

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The '10 of Swords' and Shifting From A Negative Focus to a Positive One

Wednesday, February 17, 2016.  Sleeping has become quite the pleasure as of late.  The nights are long and my dreams curiously happy, satisfying, and uplifting.

Spirit Is and today's Gay Tarot Energy is “10 of Swords: You Choose the Script.  You can choose to plug yourself into a negative viewpoint, or to unplug yourself from one.  The end of a bad situation.  Hysterical overreaction."

It's always seems easier to focus on the sometimes self-created doom and gloom in our lives rather the richness that is our life.  Life is difficult and challenging at times, no doubt about it however, this is more a result of us relinquishing control of our lives to outside sources and influences.  We are more powerful and how more power in and over our lives than we gives ourselves credit for.  So, SNAP OUT OF IT and get on with living your life, your way!

After getting home from work, I sat in the dark for awhile forcing myself to relax and gather my thoughts without unnecessary visual distractions of what I think I must be doing rather than sitting on the sofa doing nothing.  This calmed me down enough that my thoughts immediately swung to fresh thoughts and ideas about today's Tarot Energy, what to with "spiritual" hat and an idea on how to add colour to my model railroad.  Oh, I made myself a cup of Cold 911 Tea as well...feeling much better.  Thank You!

I was able to steer my thoughts away from unnecessary anger and frustration to healthier thoughts ideas, and attitude and put a smile on my face as a result.  So yes, we can choose where to focus our attention and it's far healthier to focus it light, love, and peace.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The '5 of Cups' Shifting From Regret to Optimism

Tuesday, February 2, 2016.  Groundhog Day, moreover, Imbolc.  Hope it's a good day for all!

Today's Gay Tarot Energy is “5 of Cups: The Aftermath.  Regret over past actions.”

So you did some regretful things.  Did they harm anyone else other than yourself?  If not, look for a way to turn that regret around and into something more positive and uplifting.  Try to find a silver lining.  Make amends with others and yourself and turn over a new leaf, change directions and take a step out of the shadows and into the light.  Focusing too much and more attention than necessary on regret simply creates worry and fear and less than ideal conditions to make good decisions and steer away from the regret and will only likely lead to ever more regret.  Shake yourself loose , turn around and see that you have something positive on which to focus.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The '6 of Swords' and Overcoming an Emotional Storm

Sunday, January 31, 2016.  The first thirty-one days and the first month of the year are almost behind us.  What a quick start to the year it's been.  Although, the last couple of weeks were slower than usual at the job...a job I need to part from so I can really live my life.  Often people run away from things but in this case I feel like I'm running to something or at least I want to run to something.  And that is toward living life, living my life with purpose, my true purpose, the reason I'm here at this time and in this place.  I'm Wizard Oron--Reverend, Spiritualist, Tarot Intuitive, Chakra Worker and Mystical Researcher.  How may I be of service to you?

Today's Gay Tarot Energy is “6 of Swords: Peaceful Recovery.  Serenity and the passage of time help to heal wounds.  Stormy emotions are given time to subside, allowing a plan for a solution.”

If it's been a bit of or maybe even a wholly rough emotional weekend for you up to this point, today is all about overcoming those rough raw emotions with a peaceful salve that will return balance and harmony to your household so that you can discover a plan and draw up a solution for what brought about the discord in the first place.

Don't, don't rush.   Allow the peacefulness and serenity of Spirit be your guide.  Don't fret, don't panic and don't try so hard.  Let the plan and solution come to you.  And it will.  Believe and have faith.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Happy Spring, the 8 of Wands and Movement

Thursday, March 20, 2014.  Happy or Blessed Ostara.  May the Spring Equinox bring new opportunities for us all to grow and evolve this year.

I’m moving along with my days focused on the Tarot.  I’ve been scanning and creating digital versions of a few of my favourite Tarot Decks and will likely add a fourth, fifth, and possibly six deck to my digital collection.  As I think I mentioned I love this exercise of going digital with my Tarot decks as it really brings to life each deck of and each individual card each particular deck.  I learn, grow and evolve with each Tarot Card I add to my digital Tarot Book Collection.  What a great way to learn, understand, and become Tarot, an integral part of the world, spirit, and energy of Tarot.

I have decided to become a Professional Tarot Consultant, Reader, and Interpreter.  In fact, I am a Professional Tarot Consultant, Reader, and Interpreter as well as a Spiritualist involved in Metaphysical Science and Mystical (Paranormal) Research.  Until now, I’ve never accepted or put this passion and interest of mine top of mind and this has all come about since I parted company with my former employer.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “8 of Wands: Movement.  Everything is falling into place.  People or circumstances are aligning to facilitate the achievement of your goals.  Matters are rapidly reaching a conclusion.  A group combines their energies while maintaining individuality.”

As I slipped into bed last night and drifted off to dreamland and the world of the subconscious I wondered about how split up my energy and focus is and what to about this as I have too many options before me and must only focus on one, maybe two but all of them, maybe four or five areas I thought I need to keep myself involved with.  Bu this morning I awoke with the feeling that eve with as much time, energy, and even money I’ve invested in things some of it has to, needs to go if I want to grow and evolve spiritually.  If I am to be an effective Spiritualist, spiritualism has to take centre stage in my life.
Sometimes, we must give up the things we think we love and think we cannot live without as giving them up opens up a whole new world of possibilities.  Often we are too close to it to see beyond it the gifts awaiting us just over the horizon.

Movement…is it time for some movement in your life?

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Youth of Coins and Let's Get Moving!

Saturday, March 15, 2014.  I had a great day yesterday.  I made it the gym, we celebrated someone’s birthday, we had a nice meal at “Le Parisien” and I met Pagan Tarot during the afternoon as I opened my newest deck of Tarot Cards for the first time.

A funny thing happened as we were settling into our seats at the restaurant and getting our drinks ordered.  We presented the server with our “gift card” a friend gave us at Christmas.  It was print out of an online purchase receipt.  Well the funny thing is our friend forgot to give us the pertinent information needed to make what she gave us valid.  So in the end our “gift card” was a $100 out of our pockets.  We didn’t worry about it too much at all as the food and service are great and this is our second time at the restaurant.

So I could meet my Pagan Tarot Cards for the first time I set up a nice layout of candles, incense, crystals, crystal ball, cauldron, and my Wiccan Cabinet on our dining room table along with a piece of black silk.  I opened the box of cards and held them in my hand for the longest time.  The energy and spirit I felt is amazing, these are my cards.  I then laid out the major Arcana and simply soaked up the images on each of the cards.  What a powerful and tiring experience!  Absolutely wonderful!

I then decided that I need to create a Pagan Tarot booklet that I take with me when I leave the house so I scanned the cards and the booklet that came with them so I can create a mobile version of the cards without taking them physically with me as I have done with my other favourite deck.  Thank You Spirit.

I’ve also decided that I must accept that I am a true through and through spiritualist.  I often sense, feel, see and interact with Spirit so I’m taking ownership of my abilities and will use them the best I can to benefit as many people as possible.  Am I capable of hearing them?  Not as far as I can tell but I’m okay with that as other people are gifted in that area and I’ll leave it to them to communicate with and disseminate messages from Spirit.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Youth of Coins: Focusing on the physical.  Beginning a regimen.  Matters relating to nutrition and exercise.”

It’s time to move beyond thinking and contemplating and start acting.  I’m back at the gym on a regular basis and I must start acting on my spiritual gifts and using them to the best of my abilities to live a purposeful and purpose driven life that benefits all kind.  Much of what I do is available online so I need to get my website up and operational over the next couple of weeks.  Thankfully, I’ve been acting on this by finding and creating content for the three, four, or five pages I wish to create or have created for me by the experts.  Having a solid web presence will give me the exposure I need to grow all facets of my Odds n Ends Scraps and Crafts business in whatever form it takes from such online exposure.

So the underlying message of the ““Youth of Coins” is “Let’s get a move on here, times a wasting.”

Thank you Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The 8 of Cups and Making Proactive and Productive Changes

Tuesday, March 4th, 2014.  Today is another day.  I slept well and had a ho-hum kind of day.  The highlights of my day were meeting with a networking partner at his place of business to so we can discuss each other’s business and learn how best to refer people to each other and the other highlight was coming home to my partner.

I worked with Spirit and Tarot and feel spiritually complete yet needing to make changes in my life, changes that are likely needed for me to be more productive and purposeful in my day-to-day living.  As much as I wanted my current job to be a success for both me and my employer I don’t think it’s going to end that way.  I do believe that the writing’s on the wall and I’ll likely be parting ways with this company rather soon.  Spirit is my support and my highest ideal and I really need to dedicate some time with Spirit through meditation and contemplation.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “8 of Cups: Farewell.  Moving on.  Leaving behind a person, a situation, or a part of yourself.”

The “8 of Cups” is not a complete surprise for me today.  When I saw it appear I knew where the card was going with this message and in fact this message was reaffirmed during my afternoon meeting with my networking partner in something he said.  To paraphrase he mentioned how he had to change careers to keep himself from becoming emotionally detached from a job that he liked but at the same time was very troubling to him.  Making this change led him to do what he aspired to do and that is in a sense to change the lives of people if not even save them through motivating people to adopt healthy lifestyles through eating and fitness.  His gym has great energy and he made me really feel like a friend.

Thank You Spirit.

I need to make a proactive and productive change in my life and I have to do it now.  I need to take a chance, that leap of faith that will lead me one or another and I’ll never know until I just do it.  Take a chance on myself and my talents and abilities.  I can do it!  Believe in myself, trust myself, and be myself!

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

VIII Justice and Rising Above Anger and Condemnation

Monday, March 3rd, 2014.  I think that last night felt like the longest night I’ve ever experienced.  I thought that I first awoke between three and four in the morning however when I opened my eyes again it was only a few minutes past four.  Then after sleeping for what felt like many hours and the time the alarm should be going off it was only five.  Then I fell back to sleep and awoke mere minutes before the alarm thinking that it was about time.  I guess in a sense I was worried that I would not hear or that the alarm was not going to ring and that I’d sleep in.  I think I missed something last night thought that Spirit wanted to me to see and or experience.  I was definitely awaking for a reason.

But I did during these moments of awakening I work and commune with both Spirit and Tarot.  I really need to devote more time to this as well.  I’m feeling quite encouraged to make a career out of all things Spirit.  I’m not sure about how I’ll work out the finances for this type of work however it feels right to be reaching out in this direction at this time.  My day at work kind of confirmed this for me too!  I kept a level head and did not lash out when I was being belittled in front of others.  I kept my cool and defended myself by discussing the work and effort I’m making in growing the business—all thanks to the strength of Spirit in my life.

Thank You Spirit.

Upon awaking I quickly got on with the day and took a few moments out to again reflect on Spirit and work with Tarot.  Today’s visiting Tarot Card is “VIII Justice: Even today, gays can be the victims of “justice”.  An unfair judgment.  Being too judgmental or righteous.  Feeling restricted by others’ expectations.”

This card sure helped me today as I showed patience and level headedness whereas in the past my more immediate reaction would have been to lash out.  But even though I was being poked at in a meeting I kept my temper and anger under control.  I felt sorry in a sense for the person that was not treating me well in that meeting as I’ve come to, with the help of Spirit, and understanding that this person likely feels weak, inferior and inadequate and the only way they know to overcome these feelings is to be rude, obnoxious and put people down.  I do not like this person but nor do I dislike this person.  They are who they are and could use a good therapist to overcome their demons but such a decision is theirs to make.

For myself, I refuse to be or to play the victim.  I am Spirit.  I am Tarot.  I am Nature.  I am the Goddess and God.  For these are in all of us and are the highest ideals of ourselves that must always be the heroes we are chasing after in our lives.  Matthew McConaughey said something similar to this during his acceptance speech upon receiving the Best Actor Award at the 86th Academy Awards as he felt that these three things made him the person he is today-- He needs someone to look up to, something to look forward to and someone to chase.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The "4 of Coins" and I SURRENDER

Sunday, March 2nd, 2014.  The Moon moves into Aries this morning and it is Sunday - ARIES: Good for starting things, but lacks staying power. Things occur rapidly; but quickly pass. People tend to be argumentative and assertive.  And - SUNDAY (SUN): Healing, spirituality, success, strength, and protection .

Yesterday morning I joined my brother and a couple of friends for breakfast at Cora’s in Surrey and as always I enjoyed my meal.  I had their breakfast Panini and as always it came with a generous serving of fruit.  I also had a strawberry and banana smoothie so I think I hit my daily fruit and vegetable intake quite well.  Then it was a day staying at home with only a brief outing to renew the car insurance for another year and have our mid-afternoon coffee at Tre Galli in the River Market.  Then I simply enjoyed our quiet evening at home.  I had a great night’s sleep with dreams filled with family and friends.  Although I awoke a few times I was happy to bring my dreams into my conscious and put a smile on my face.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “4 of Coins: The Lighting Director.  A position of power.  Wanting to control how others perceive things.”

I need to learn to go with the flow more as well as truly chase after my dreams.  I’m sure if it came from the blog I was reading last night however something I read hit home with me.  My dreams do fill me with fear so I how am I going to work through this fear and go out and pursue and live out my dreams.  What must I do to punch through this fear and forge ahead with my dreams?  I know deep down that I have the skills and talent to do this so why am I not doing it?

Blocked change for one.  Not only am I experiencing blocked change in the work place I’m suffering from blocked change that I’ve brought upon myself.  I need to give up control and go with the flow.  Spirit, the cosmos, the universe, the goddess and the god and even Tarot are telling how to live my dreams but I’m failing to recognize the messages they are sending my way because I’m wanting to have too much control.

I SURRENDER!

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Dreams Within Dreams

Dreams within dreams, an experience I do not remember having and a little bit off-putting but not really, at the same time.  I dreamed that I awoke to use the bathroom and came back to bed however, I then awoke from that dream but was still dreaming of a guy or was it a seal performing in a pool.  He was trying to play what I would say was basketball and he and his coach were trying to figure out a way of getting him more lift out of the pool in order to really shoot some hoops then I actually awoke from that, well kind of, maybe as I then was thinking about travel and the “10 of Wands” appeared, then I opened my eyes and it was two hours later than I thought it was.

So I’m not sure where my mind is at the moment but I am quite awake and in an odd state of mind.  I worked with Tarot and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “10 of Wands: The Burden.  Responsibilities.  Obligations.  Overcommitting yourself.  Realizing that burdens are a part of life."  I need to focus my energies if I really want to get out there and travel the roads of North America, if that really is my goal.

When the image of this card from the deck I’m using came to mind while I was dreaming I immediately thought of travel as this is thought, the idea the image evokes in me, plain and simple travel.  So seeing the 10 of Wands makes me want to travel however it is also sending me other messages as well, those of responsibilities and obligations, lack of focus, trying too hard to reach my goals.  I think I need to sit back and relax a little and just let things be, including myself.

One step at a time...no worrying...believe in myself and my abilities...tackle my dreams and goals with courage and conviction and forever strive to reach the “pot of gold at the end of the rainbow”.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Faith

We had what I’ll term a “busy day”.  Mid morning we met my brother, aunt, and two uncles for breakfast/brunch around 11am.  We sat at the Knight and Day Restaurant at King George Blvd and 96th in Surrey until 2pm eating, visiting, and chatting and having way too much coffee.  We made it home and relaxed until our next scheduled event between 6:30 and 7pm at Taverna Greka here in New Westminster to join 12 or 13 others for dinner and to celebrate our friends 39th birthday.  Both food and company were great.  We left this event around 9:30, maybe 10pm.  We made it to bed around 11:30pm after relaxing a bit after our long five minute walk home.

Spirit is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is “XV Self-Hatred: The trap to avoid for all minorities.  Unconsciously accepting societal norms.  Low self-esteem.” 

I must always strive to be myself and not become part of the societal flock that is blind to the fallacies of the life they/we all lead.  I must believe in myself and my desire to be a craft’s person and a totally self-employed, self-sufficient individual living my life my own way and not by or according to another person's standards or expectations.  I say this because our birthday friend showed everyone the card I made him and the card and I received rave reviews.  I have talent and I must have faith in myself and what I can and desire to do.  I’m an RVer, craft’s person, ventriloquist, spiritualist, writer and traveler.

Thank you Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Guide of Cups

What a tough night of sleep we had.  Neither my partner nor I could stay asleep last night, we tossed and turned throughout the night.  I even slept in until the alarm awoke me and luckily I caught myself falling asleep again so I quickly hustled out of bed before sleep once again overtook me.

My reams were all over the map, the most prominent one being about my RV, my motorhome and how I was giving her a wash but then somehow forgot her keys at home.  Other dreams and thoughts revolved around love, being in love falling in love, loving both myself and my partner.  I also gave some dream time to what I'll be doing once my job comes to an end either at the end of this month or at some point in September.  It's been some time since I've been unemployed.  And as happened six years ago, this job is also coming to an end because the office is being closed and everything handled out of Toronto.  I do not like being unemployed so I then turned my thoughts and dreams to my crafts - cards, bracelets, and masquerade ball masks.  I need to keep in mind all of the job opportunities that are before me.  Upon awaking my thoughts were on becoming a Spiritual Guide of sorts, a Spiritualist offering direction and guidance but no opinions or advice instead trying to open doors and assist others in finding the answers they seek, themselves.

Today's visiting Tarot card is the "Guide of Cups" and is a reflection of where my thoughts and dreams were last night and where my thoughts still are percolating and deciphering what my future may hold for me.  Maybe I will become a Tarot Card Reader, traveling the bi-ways and highways of North America assisting people decipher their lives while on the road.
