“The ultimate call of the Muses in contemporary life is to live a creative and authentic life.” Angeles Arrien

Show off Your Creative Work with Pride

MONDAY TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 2/24/2020

Theme, Page of Coins. Coins is the element of Earth in the realm of home, health, and wealth, anything you can touch, taste or feel. As with last week, the Page is the messenger. This Page is a messenger with actual products, not feelings. He/she wants to show off your creative work, whether that is to submit it to an agent or editor, talk to a gallery owner about an exhibit (or hold your own), audition for a part, or perform on stage. This is the week, to show it off, not be falsely humble or let doubts make you hide it.

Focus, The Moon. This Major Arcana card asks you to focus this week on the nighttime messages. Are you paying attention to your dreams, intuition, or ideas that come to you in the night? Do you honor the messages of your dreams, by recording them? Same with your intuition. Are you jotting down the ideas and guidance it gives you, or are you discounting it? The images of Thoth, the god of the Moon, standing to either side of the card, reminds you that you should be recording and learning from these nighttime messages.

Action, King of Swords. Swords is the element of Air in the realm of mind, thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, and communication. The King is the master of the element. He has no need to wave his sword about, his authority is innate. His power and confidence unquestioned. When you show off your creative work this week, invoke this King, and show your work with the sense of power and confidence of the King of Swords.

Gift, 6 of Swords. Swords and the mind again, but with the six as the gift. When you share your work this week, and do so with confidence, you receive the gift of moving forward with more ease in spite of fears and doubts. You’ll find yourself less focused on those and more focused on where you want to go with your work. And you might even discover someone who will help you navigate the waters and get you where you want to go.
