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

Time to Launch a New Creative Project?

MONDAY’S TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 8/29/2016

Theme, Ace of Wands. Wands is the element of Fire in the realm of spirit, creativity, career, work. Ace is the beginning, the seed, the first step. It’s time to start that exciting creative project that you’ve been sitting on while you tend to other things. Let it loose. Begin.

Focus, 9 of Cups. Cups is the element of Water in the realm of heart, emotions, dreams, intuition and creativity. Nine is a number of completion. Here, the 9 of Cups can mean something born from the imagination in support of that Ace. Just like pregnancy, ask yourself what are you giving birth to? What do you want to manifest creatively now? What is it you truly wish for?

Action, 6 of Swords. Swords is the element of Air in the realm of mind, thoughts, attitudes, beliefs and communication. Six is a number of of new directions, imagination, and harmony. Here we see the woman heading from the past into the future. Her imagination can be both ally and saboteur, depending on whether she focuses on her fears and the doubts of others or on the vision for her future and her work. Thankfully, she has someone in the form of the boatman and his light, helping her navigate. This week, take action according to your vision and not your fears.

Gift, Queen of Coins. Coins is the element of Earth in the realm of home, health and wealth, anything you can touch, taste or feel. The Queen is the mistress of the element, deeply connected to the Earth, to all things physical. This week, look for someone in your environment who’d like to offer support in a practical way, either physically helping you with creative tasks, or investing in your work, or even cooking up a good meal in acknowledgement of your hard work.
