Yes, I did do a reading yesterday, Sunday, July 25. I didn’t post it because I was still contemplating the meaning. Well, still am, but I want to put this up so I won’t forget it.
Ace of Wands and The Hierophant. I am a little stuck on The Hierophant, and I will explain later when I have more time. Hmm… I sure am getting a lot of major cards! What’s up?
What an interesting combination to me, The Moon Reversed and The Fool. 2 major cards, must be a significant day today and for the near future.
The Moon to me signifies mystery, the wild side, intuition, instinct, lunar influences. In reversed position it seems to point to clarity, mystery revealed. Whatever that was just below the surface is now coming into the light. Logic. The Fool indicates a new journey, new phase in life. He is stepping into the unknown with courage and hope, full of confidence. Look at the contrast in behavior between the two dogs in the cards. In The Moon it joins in with the wolf in howling at the moon, giving in to the animal instinct, fully embracing the influence of the moon. In The Fool it is warning its friend of the possible danger in front of him, logical, sensible, cautious.
This does feel like a big change in life, a new cycle. One phase ends with clarity, without doubt. Another begins with hope and trust in fate. What can it be? Very interesting.
Sneaking in a reading this morning. (Fell asleep last night, ha ha.) So nice to be working home today, but not sure if I like what the cards are saying. One positive is that Ace of Pentacles popped up during shuffling. Good sign, good foundation, good start for financial/material security.
Today I have Five of Wands Reversed and Four of Cups. Yes, I decided to go back to 2-card readings. This time I designate the first card to the theme/vibe of the day, and the second card to influences that can help or hinder for the day. So, it seems that today I might let the things overwhelm me and lose clarity. I have an inkling what that is. There is one major project that I need to do today, and it does involve many different components. I need to keep focus and not end up withdrawing into myself feeling sorry about what I might not accomplish today. Look at the bigger picture. There are accomplishments to be proud of and to encourage oneself to stay focused.
Added 4:08pm – OK, so I really underestimated the time I needed for this project, a website using CMS. Kind of regret losing some valuable time in the beginning of the project. Take a deep breath. There’s still a week before deadline. Even if I can’t present something today, I still have time. Breathe. But I do feel like kicking myself!
Hard to get this exercise going in a consistent manner! I think it’s too difficult to try to do this in the morning. Lately I’ve been waking up thinking about what to do, for my design projects, for the gallery. I think it’s probably best to do this at night before going to bed. It’s usually quiet in the evening, perfect for reading cards. Except last night. They were filming something with loud bangs. Probably some kind of gunfight. Downtown living is exciting!
I am back! Wow! My day off was 3 days long. 
Today I have Eight of Wands. Full speed ahead! Fast pace into the future. Lots of energy and creativity. There’s no lack of clarity in this fast paced day!
