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

Are You Serving your Community with your Creative Passions?

Monday Tarot Message from the Muse. 10/29/2012.

Theme for the week, Knight of Wands. Ready to do battle? Put on the armor of your passion for your work, then ride out to use your creative work to serve others. Your passion for what you do fuels the passions of others and inspires them to creative action as well. And remember that your creative work is a gift, a service to others.

Focus is Temperance. This is a Major Arcana card, so this speaks to big energy and importance for the focus. Temperance is about balance and harmony, about mixing in new creative elements that strengthens our creative work, and about the testing of our commitment and strengths. Keep asking, “Where do I need to strengthen my work? What new elements could I integrate that would help do that?”

Action for the week is the Moon. No surprise, since we have a Full Moon tonight. This week be especially mindful of paying attention to your dreams and your intuitions. Trust your emotional responses to situations and ideas. Keep your journal handy so you can record and process. This will keep you from becoming overwhelmed by everything that is flowing through you.

Gift is the 9 of Cups. Cups also has to do with emotions and with the love of your creative work. Look for that sense of emotional abundance that comes when you are in your creative flow. And look for the gift of getting your wish, a common reading for this card, related to your creative work.
