Focus on Positive Outcomes for Creative Work

MONDAY TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 7/3/2023

Theme, 6 of Swords. Swords is the element of Air in the realm of mind, thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, and communication. Six is a number of relationships and harmony. Here, there are three relationships with the Swords. The boatman uses them as markers of a pathway for the boat. The figure on the boat focuses on the peril of the Swords. The woman at the prow is focused on the far shore, looking forward to the outcome of the journey. This week, instead of focusing on how things won’t work, or figuring out your creative path in detail, focus instead on positive outcomes for your creative work. Discern where you want to land with your creative work and who will help you get there.

Focus, 6 of Wands. Wands is the element of Fire in the realm of spirit, creativity, career, and work. Six again, about relationship and harmony. Success comes with a harmony between dreams and acquired knowledge and experience. For those positive outcomes for your creative work, ask, “What creative challenges and struggles have I overcome at this point? What have I learned from them that will lead to even greater success? What creative outcomes can I take pride in?”

Action, Page of Cups. Cups is the element of Water in the realm of heart, emotions, dreams, intuition, and creativity. The Page is the youthful enthusiast and messenger, in touch with emotions and intuition. Now is the time to trust in your intuition about new creative directions and projects. Allow yourself to feel that enthusiasm for your work, as well as the excitement and joy that comes with following the flow of creativity where it leads.

Gift, 5 of Cups. Cups again, the element of Water in the realm of heart and all that represents. This doesn’t exactly look like a gift but because it is in the position consider it the gift of letting go of past disappointments and regrets, because it is only in letting go that you make room for the new opportunities and positive outcomes for your creative work.
