Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Eight of Wands – Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

You may feel as though issues are raining down on you today, but don’t fret. They’re not about you. Others are taking out their frustrations and trying to dump them in your lap to handle. Don’t allow them too. It’s their mess, they made the choices and they must live with the consequences of those decisions. Learn to say ‘No’ and you’ll be fine.

Additional Insight:

Others will try to blame you and insist this wouldn’t have happened had you done this or that. Don’t let them shift the buck to you for the bad decisions they made. They could have consulted you first; and they choose not to. The onus is on them, not you. So don’t let them bully you into dealing with the aftermath. It was their call, make them handle the consequences of their choice. Others involved will stand behind you. That maybe a surprise, but you’ll be amazed at how they react to the blame game.

It’s lonely at the top. You can’t shake your responsibilities, not can you express your frustrations without taking them out on others. But you’re really not alone when you remember to rise above the pettiness and look at the lessons the path is trying to teach you. Stop being the punching bag for everyone else and say enough. You’re the boss. So take control, make the tough decisions and solve the problems instead of only talking about them and pushing them farther out in hopes of having them resolved for you. They won’t be.

Additional Insight:

Whither you’re the boss in business, in the household or just your own path, you don’t have to be anyone’s scape goat or punching bag unless you want to be. So if you don’t want to be, you’re the only one who can stop it.

Being the boss means taking responsibility for the direction of your life. Don’t just talk about what changes you’re going to make. Work to make those changes a reality. Yes it takes effort, yes it takes time, yes it will take confrontation and putting your foot down. But you’re the boss. Remember that and you will empower your position and your confidence to make it happen.

You don’t have to be mean (though that might be needed with some). So remember you’ll catch more bees with honey than vinegar. You don’t have to be vindictive. There’s a difference between needing someone’s assistance and ensuring your business runs smooth and efficiently. Don’t fire the one you need. But you don’t have to keep the one costing you business either.

Stay calm, get focused and put your ideas into action. Walk your talk!

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Worry is making you weary and taking your energy. You put all your eggs in one basket and there’s not much you can do about that now. Blaming yourself for past choices is holding you in the past of lack and struggle. You must let it go and deal with the here and now. You have responsibilities that must be met head on and face to face. You can refill the basket, but you must work for the future with what you have before you. Not what you didn’t have behind you.

Additional Insight:

Stress is not only taking your energy, it’s impacting your health in your physical condition and mental thoughts. Stop dwelling on the past and the choices you should have made. You can’t change the past. But you can change the way you allow past decisions and events to affect you now and tomorrow. You have plenty of things in front of you to work on. Focus on your future choices and decisions. Gather your information and evidence and you’ll have better information to decide what needs to be done.

Don’t forget to say thanks. Someone has gone out of their way to help you. While you may feel frustrated with the whole situation, they have made an effort to help you out! Make sure you say thank you! If they’re someone you’re close to, give them a hug. They deserve it and you need it! You’ll feel better for it and it will make your weekend a lot more calm and relaxing now that things have been taken care of. Even if you have a final solution to work out.

Additional Information:

You know how it feels not to be appreciated. Someone went out of their way for you and while they may not say it, they would like some appreciation from you. Remember what you put out, you get back. So put forth some gratitude and caring and you’ll receive that back when you need it most.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Crying over spilt milk when your cup is over flowing really makes no sense. What more do you want? What more are you asking for? You already have what you’re looking for. Wake up and take off the blinders. It may not be your perfect vision, but what you’re wishing for isn’t perfect either. Nor is it the best thing for you. Put your focus back on what’s before you and stop daydreaming about things you don’t need and in the end will not want.

Additional Insight:

The fantasies may be a nice distraction but they are affecting the energy you’re expressing to others and to the world around you. Remember what you think, you create. Often times, that means destroying something in order to create something new. But if you allow your fantasies to become real, you could be destroying the very thing you’re trying to acquire and achieve.

No situation or person is perfect. Things do not work out exactly as we want them to and people don’t react exactly like you imagine they will. Don’t destroy what you have in order to achieve some perfect vision that doesn’t and won’t exist even if you do manage to acquire it.

Stop the day dreaming and turn your energies on what you can control and manage. Open your communication levels and express your views and feelings with compassion and trust. Explain your lack of feeling secure, loved or attention. Others can’t read your mind, so why are you expecting them too and then holding them to a standard that even you can’t meet. Knock it off and appreciate what you have, before it’s gone.

Sometimes all you need is a hug. Let someone know it’s going to be ok and give them a hug, or a simple touch on the shoulder. Things aren’t as bad as you think they are. There are many blessings around you and all your cups will be filled shortly. Hang in a little longer.

Additional Insight:

It’s amazing how far the power of touch can uplift another person. Whither you’re the one needing the hug, or the one who can give it, share your strength with compassion and caring. A simple hug can let someone know they’re not alone and they’re facing the trials on their path in solitude. Even those with partners can feel segregated or pushed aside. A touch on the shoulder, a pat on the back or even a simple holding of the hand to show caring and concern can be an immeasurable gift to someone who needs it.

If you’re the one needing the hug; don’t let the stress of being responsible weigh you down. Those that attempt to rise up and be accountable for their actions will discover rewards in the end. It’s easy to feel the burdens in hard times. But you have overcome more than you realize. You have survived through the thick and thin. You will over come the current stresses and you will succeed. Believe in yourself and let the worry fall by the wayside.

It may seem like the little vermin are scurrying around you constantly. You can allow them to annoy you, or you can learn from watching them what not to do with your own possessions and prosperity. You can allow them to turn things upside down, letting your finances fall out of your pockets. Or you can rise above the pettiness and keep your thoughts in Divine light to grow and keep your abundance.

Additional Insight:

If you focus on the people who insist on pushing your buttons and create stress and strife, you will make some costly mistakes. Don’t allow them to control your emotions or you duties. Focus on your tasks and pay attention to the details. Giving into their attempts to control you only gives them more power than they deserve.

Ignoring their jibes and jabs will turn the tables and allow you to push their buttons for once. It will also allow you to retake control of your emotions and your actions. Doing so today will keep you from paying out for things you otherwise wouldn’t have to deal with. And can’t afford in the first place.

What you’re searching for is already in your hands. Stop allowing the stress and strife to blind your view and keep you from seeing it. Anger and frustration only create blinders that cause you to focus your attention on the wrong things. Let it go, and see what you already have at your finger tips.

Additional Insight:

Be careful you don’t look at the world around you with glasses of frustration. Just like rose colored glasses, overwhelming frustrations can cause you to warp your view of all things around you. You’re wasting so much looking for the answers in something; or someone; else when the answer is already right in front of you.

Let go and let the Divine guide your path and your view back on course where you implement your desires and enjoy what you already have.

Use all your tools of the trade to their fullest and you’ll be able to pull the right card out of thin air. Allow your talents to shine, and your confidence to shed light on the deception others are trying to put forth as fact. You’ll rule the day and gain both pride and self-reliance at the same time.

Additional Information:

While others are pretending to have a solution, or claim the work of others as their own, you have the skill to pull the solution out of thin air. Don’t let the deception of others shake your confidence. Use all the tools at your disposal and you’ll clearly see what to do and more importantly, how to do it with skill. Believe in yourself. You know this stuff! You can do it!

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Accept the gifts of spirit even if you don’t yet understand their purpose. The events in your life come to bring lessons of enlightenment, be they karmic or spiritual in nature. We may not always see what they bring to teach us, but when we accept their energy and make choices that break old negative patterns, we achieve a step forward toward our own spiritual wisdom and understanding.

Additional Insight:

We set the path that we walk in life. Either as a spiritual blue print, or through the choices we make in life. Our way forward or backward comes by our own hand. If you repeat your steps; consider looking at the situations you find yourself in from a higher spiritual perspective. What pattern are you repeating?

Take the situation into meditation and contemplate on the choices you’ve made in the past. Are they choices made out of anger or hurt? Are they decisions based on what someone else did to you in the past and you’re applying that same scenario to new situations with new players?

It’s time to set the old baggage down and leave it behind. You no longer need it and it’s only holding you back from moving forward freely. Forgive yourself for carrying it for so long. Allow your inner spirit to engulf you in compassionate loving light, soothing your spirit in green healing light. Then let it go and move on. Make an effort not to assume others will treat you the same way the foes of the past did. It’s not fair to the new actors in your life’s play and it’s not fair to you either.
