Ask for Help with Creative Work from the Right Place

MONDAY TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 11/4/2019

Theme, 5 of Coins. Coins is the element of Earth in the realm of home, health, and wealth, anything physical. Five is the place in any of the four tarot suits where there is challenge or conflict. This week, be aware of moment or situations where it isn’t necessary to go it alone, where you are better off asking for help. Then, ask for it from the right place, probably a place or source that you haven’t accessed before. Don’t keep asking from a source that can’t or won’t help.

Focus, King of Coins. Coins, again, is the element of Earth, anything physical. The King in any of the four suits is the master of the element. See how this king is elevated, calm, looking out and down? This week, ask how you are the king of your creative work. Are you seeing the big picture, managing resources, balancing budgets and delegating where necessary?

Action, 10 of Swords. Swords is the element of Air in the realm of mind, thoughts, attitudes, beliefs and communications. Ten is the number of tying up loose ends and preparing to begin again. Often, having put your creative work out into the world, the critiques, criticisms and rejections can halt you in your tracks, immobilize you and your work. Your action this week is to acknowledge the swords aimed at your back, that they are always going to be there (because not everyone is going to love what you create) and decide to keep moving forward anyway. Get started on the next project in spite of all those painful words.

Gift, 5 of Wands. Wands is the element of Fire in the realm of spirit, creativity, career and work. Five, as above, is conflict and challenge. As a creative, roles and priorities are often in conflict with one another. This week, receive the gift of finally being able to establish your creative work as a significant priority, you, the creative, as a significant role. This stops the inner batttles and helps you give more time and energy to your creative work.
