You have to End to Begin Anew

MONDAY’S TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 5/20/2019

Theme, 10 of Wands. Wands is the element of Fire in the realm of spirit, creativity, career and work. Ten is the tipping point between finishing up and beginning anew. This week, be aware of projects or work that has weighed you down long enough. Realize that you have to end to begin anew. You can’t drag the old work with you. So end it, put it down, let it go.

Focus, Judgement. This Major Arcana card is about calling and vision and re-birth. Are you ready to hear the call to vision and new possibilities in your creative work? To hear the voice of your Muse? It will be easier to hear and be ready if you finish up and let go of that old project.

Action, 5 of Swords. Swords is the element of Air in the realm of mind, thoughts, attitudes, beliefs and communications. Five is the mid-point and therefore a testing point in the tarot. The advice this week is to pick your battles mentally and in communication with others. What is the one form of communication that you need to use to make it clear to someone (including yourself) that you are done with a project? Communicate clearly and to the point that you have to end to begin anew, that you are done, finished. Perhaps you need to tell yourself to stop tweaking in hopes of perfection?

Gift, 6 of Coins. Coins is the element of Earth in the realm of home, health, wealth, anything physical. And isn’t interesting that after the five of the action card, a six appears. This six suggests that the gift is a balance of energies and resources. When you bring a project to an end and let go of it, you’ll be gifted with more time and energy to give to something new.
