Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Fan the flames of desire, you might create the warmth and security you seek. Nothing is just going to fall into your lap out of the sky without any effort from you. Everything worth having, requires a little work on your part. You know what needs to be done, so do it.

Additional Insight:

We all have dreams within our mind that we secretly keep to ourselves. We hope and wish they would come true, but we don’t do anything to help them manifest. You may not attract the movie star, but the one you do attract could be the star you’ve been looking for and who’s been waiting for you.

Dreams give us hope, but they always need a little work to help them come true. When we dismiss them without conscious consideration, we do them and ourselves an injustice. Sometimes they’re trying to tell us to believe in ourselves and we can attain the corner office. Or to trust your instincts and stick to the books to drive that expensive sports car.

Maybe the biggest lesson is to remind you that when you align your energy with the Divine in your life, any creation is possible. So stop making excuses and let the hidden desire be your inspiration to start walking, focus on your studies, put in the extra effort at work, or be brave enough to change a situation you know is bad for you.

The manifestation of your desire may not be exactly the way you have dreamed it to be. But you’ll never know if you do nothing to reach out for it. You may find what comes your way is even better than you imagined.

Today when I pulled the daily card it was still a little dark outside. I thought the card was the Eight of Cups-Inverted. I realized the error when I linked the picture to the page. Something whispered to me that it should be shared today as well. So here’s a second card for you Friday and weekend contemplation.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Eight of Cups – Inverted

Hold yourself in compassion and don’t take things too seriously. Even if no one else can see your wings, you know they are there waiting to spread and help you take flight. Let go of the fear and anxiety and allow the wings in your life to fly effortlessly in the breeze;  (be they yours, or upon someone you love).

Cups represent the essence of Emotions, Happiness, and Abundance. Simply because they are upside down doesn’t mean they are the negative or opposite of those things. It simply means you may need to turn a situation on its head to look at it from a different angle.

Perhaps you have already caught your prize, but your actions are holding it down instead of allowing it to take flight. Don’t allow fear to hold you back, or keep your goal from soaring high above the clouds. If it’s truly yours, it will merely help you expand your view and see the never ending horizons ahead.

If it does fly away, you’ve learned all you can from its presence in your life and there’s something greater waiting for you to discover its existence.

Never be afraid of change. It’s a necessary event here in the Physical World. Without it we cannot discover new beauty, appreciate new connections and be excited for new adventures that come our way. Believe in yourself, trust your instincts and stop gripping onto what you have. Have faith that what happens, is meant to bring you a better cup of fulfillment.

Trust your own judgement and blow your own horn. It’s not the number of people who know you accomplished a goal. It’s making sure the right person knows. That’s the difference between confidence and arrogance. Be careful which side of the line you stand on today.

Additional Insight:

Accomplishments can sometimes be a rare thing in one’s life and they deserve to be recognized and celebrated. But when you want everyone to know and boast about your deeds you undermine the positive course of your actions. It’s not the Shaman who labels them self as the wise person to be listened to. It’s those around them who bestow that honor and give them that label. Be careful about the claims you make today and who you share your news with.

Confidence doesn’t need to be posted and spread through the community like a town crier. The person most important to knowing your good deeds and successes is you. If it’s about work, your boss may want to know. If you’re fortunate to have a special someone in your life, certainly they will want to help you celebrate. But remember you never achieve a goal without help. So make sure you thank those around you who have made their own sacrifices to help achieve the goal.

There’s a fine line between confidence and arrogance and sometimes that line is dependent on one’s perspective. Those who lack self-confidence will always see arrogance, because they lack the trust in their own judgement. Those who have a lack of self-worth will feel the need to boast about their accomplishments in an attempt to elevate their value. Don’t allow your self-doubt or negative talk to take control and run through the town saying “Look what I did”!

Those who hold humility within will discover and hold onto pride from knowing they did a good deed or achieved a desired goal. There’s no better way to celebrate than to honor the self with a nice pat on the back, a special cup of coffee, scoop of ice cream or a quiet moment spent with someone who loves you and will help you jump for joy in celebration.

In the end, the best way you can honor an achievement is to add this rung on the ladder to your collection and elevate the belief in yourself. Trust your judgement and you will achieve the success you seek.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Playing the part of the fool will not win you influence over those who matter. Be careful how you portray yourself. If you want to be seen as someone who deserves to be respected, then don’t be immature and childish. It might be cute for a moment or two, but in the end do you want to be treated as a child?

Additional Insight:

The image you put out to the world is the image others will see you as. Do you want to be taken seriously, as a person with knowledge, intelligence and who should be respected for their hard work and accomplishments? Then don’t throw that away by acting coy and immature.

There’s a big difference between acting silly once in a while to have fun and acting childish to get someone’s attention. If you want to be the person who can be trusted and respected than you must trust and respect yourself first. You don’t have to pretend to be someone else.

Remember you are the perfect embodiment of Divine creation. You are as you need to be to learn your lessons and work on your karmic debt/credit. Be comfortable in your own skin and others will treat you with the respect you show yourself.

If you don’t like something about yourself, you’re the only one who can change it. Whether its physical, emotional or mental; you’re the only one who can alter its impact on your life. If you don’t like being overweight, start walking. If you have a disability, change your attitude and stop seeing it as something that limits you. Everything in life can be changed through innovation, modification, adapting and overcoming.

Be that person who is seen as confident in themselves, but humble in their thoughts. And you’ll find you don’t have to pretend to meek and innocent to win the day. You can merely be yourself.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Put your energy into magikal creations. Stay focused and harness the creative flow between you and the Divine force in your life. Trust your instincts to allow your imagination to soar with ease. You will solve problems, overcome bumps in the road and fulfill your mission for the day.

Additional Insight:

Wands represent the essence of Enterprise, Inspiration and Distinction. Keep your cool today and you have the potential to capture each one of those with success. Don’t go about trying to save the world right now. You can’t help those who continually want to fight against the tide.

A knight knows when to fight and when to let things be. Don’t get dragged or tricked into someone elses battle. They are making up excuses and trying to reason away their lack of attention to their own responsibilities. Remain above the fray by not stepping onto the battlefield.

You can rise above and keep an eye on things. Make sure the battle doesn’t come too close to your domain. But don’t get involved until someone steps over the line and begins to affect your castle. They will come close to pulling you into issue. But close isn’t going to singe your feathers if you Keep calm!

Align your energy with the Divine force in your life and see the issues for what they are. They’re nothing more than games and ploys to weaken your position. By maintaining control of your own energy, perspective and responses, you will be able to see and hear your own instincts that will give you the answers and guidance you need.

Focus on your corner of the world and allow your imagination to help you stay clear of the battlefield. You’ll be able to innovate, adapt and overcome any obstacle that comes your way in the end. Do that and you win the day for your kingdom and achieve peace for yourself and those you care about most.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Crying over spilt milk isn’t going to refill your cup. What’s gone is in the past and didn’t need to be in your life at this time anyway. Be thankful for you still have enough left to germinate the seeds of growth and survive. Stop looking back or you might miss what’s in front of you!! Let it go! And clear the way for new and better things to come.

Additional Insight:

When you don’t heed the warnings, the Divine Universe has a way of pushing you to where you need to be. Take stock of what you do have. Everything has it’s purpose in your life. And sometimes that purpose gets fulfilled and teaches you what needs to be learned. But it’s up to you to accept the lesson, take it in, learn it and move on.

Taking the next step can be the hardest thing to do. But sometimes that’s exactly what we need to do to leave the past behind. Moving forward maybe the only way to find what we really want. Perhaps the lesson is telling you to slow down and to stop running away. Sometimes the thing we want most, can only be found when we stand still.

Don’t pine away for something that wasn’t meant to be long term in the first place. Focus on what you have to work with and build your shed for the next project, garden, job, relationship or whatever. It’s up to you to rise above and move forward. Others cannot do that for you.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

It’s going to be a contentious day. Do your best to control your temper and reactions. You’re not the only one hurting and struggling with anxiety. Try to keep to yourself and stay away from potential volatile situations. Get some rest over the weekend, even if it means backing out of an adventure.

Additional Insight:

Swords represent Strength, Struggle, Animosity and Strife. Sometimes the strength and fortitude are good things to help you get through tough situations. Or to provide a shoulder to lean on when others are in need. But that’s not the case today. In fact it’s the exact opposite.

Getting run down and burning the candle at both ends, never helped anyone. It may be necessary to get the job done, but what gain is often outweighed by what you lose. Make sure you know who you’re alienating. You may not be able to repair the damage that’s done with angry or hateful words and actions.

Don’t allow your tiredness to get the best of you. Take a nap during lunch if you can. But if you can’t, keep your temper and nerves in check. Seriously think about your reactions before you express them. You have much to lose and today could be the tipping point if you don’t implement some maturity and keep control of your emotions.

Don’t assume your family or co-workers will understand. They won’t. They’re under a great deal of stress and strain too and they’re keeping their emotions out of harms way. If they can do it, so can you. No excuses!

Make sure you get some rest over the weekend and things will look much brighter on Monday. Don’t risk the chance on getting so run down that you become sick and get knocked off your feet. Sometimes if you don’t heed the warning signs, the Divine has a way of making you do what really needs to be done.

Don’t blame others until you have all the facts and can discover what really occurred. The “highschool teen” crowd are showing their immaturity by blowing events out of proportion to get others upset and angry. Don’t get sucked into their childish game. Act like the adult you are and think with a level head!

Additional Insight:

Someone in the crowd is trying to making something out of nothing so they can be the barer of bad news and the center of attention. Their complex to be the messenger and the savior is getting old and you should recognize their pattern by now.

Take time to investigate what they’re telling you. Don’t go ask others involved in the story. Go straight to the person the story is about and ask them what occurred and or at the very least let them know rumors are going around.

It can be tricky to do this in the office or in a professional situation. So be cautious what you say and who or how you approach someone. Decide if it’s something you need to be involved in, or if you should walk away and keep you opinions to yourself.

The bottom line is, you don’t have to act like an immature high-schooler spreading gossip and trying to fit into the “popular” crowd. You’ll gain more respect and admiration by standing on your own with confidence and a healthy dose of belief in yourself.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Walk your talk today! Be compassionate, caring and supportive. You’ll do more for others by being a friend, and treating them the way you wish people would treat you. Accept them for who and what they are. You’ll get more from that, than by being the judge and jury.

Additional Insight:

If you over hear news that wasn’t meant for you, ignore it and walk away. Someone may not have intended for their traumas to be out in the public domain. Keep your business to yourself and allow them to do the same.

You don’t care much for others telling you what to do, what you need to do and what you have to give up or ignore. So what makes you think others want to hear that from you?

Govern your own life and keep your nose out of other peoples business. If someone comes to you for counsel, that’s one thing. But don’t tell them what they can or cannot do. It’s their life and you need to let them live it the way they see fit.

Always remember that you cannot learn lessons for others, no matter how much you think you know. Your experiences were meant for you to learn certain lessons and work through your own spiritual issues or rewards. They should have the same opportunity as you. Share your experience and explain what you went through and what you did to deal with it. But don’t tell them they have to do the same things you did.

Being a friend means knowing how to keep a confidence. Knowing when to be supportive and when to be quiet and show compassion. Sometimes saying nothing at all is the best thing you can do, because all that’s really needed is a hug.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Go with the flow today and save your energy. Fighting the current will get you no where and only drain you with frustration, anger and anxiety. Things are happening as they should, in their right time and space. Push too hard and you might capsize or get stuck on the rocks. Let the flow take you where you need to be.

Additional Insight:

You’ve been working very hard this year, but sometimes you have to sit back and smell the roses, or at least take in the scenery. Relax in your boat and enjoy the ride. Don’t push against the current or try to paddle back to where you came from. Don’t force your vessel down a path it’s not intended to go. Doing so could ground your progress to a halt. Or worse, destroy your boat.

Get done what must be done as you can. But if your needs are diverted, don’t fight it or get upset. Let your attention deal with the here and now as needed. Sometimes what’s imperative can be more beneficial than what’s important. And there’s a reason your energy is needed.

Relax, don’t let little things that come up get you into a frenzy. Take them on with clear thought and a calm perspective. Every thing happens for a reason in its right time and place. Try to remember that as you deal with something unexpected. It’s not a bad thing for you and you don’t need to go looking for it. But you are the one who can take care of it and solve it with ease.
