Communicate Clearly about Creativity Boundaries

MONDAY TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 9/18/2023

Theme, Queen of Swords. Swords is the element of Air in the realm of mind, thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, and communication. The Queen is the mistress of the element, and this Queen doesn’t want to deal with interruptions, criticisms, and unnecessary demands. This week, enthrone yourself in the royalty of your creativity. Communicate clearly about creativity boundaries, about the priority of your work, its purpose, and your need to devote time to it. Don’t let anyone try to take that from you or convince you otherwise.

Focus, The Moon. This Major Arcana card also offers an opportunity for clarity with the soft reflected light of the night. But are you willing to pay attention to your dreams and intuition, to go deep within? Are you willing to let go of negativity and open to insights that help you discern between reality and illusion? What are the riches and new understandings that wait for you within?

Action, 7 of Cups. Cups is the element of Water in the realm of heart, emotions, dreams, intuition, and creativity. Seven is a number of reflection. After defining boundaries and paying attention to intuition and dreams, you now have a number of rewarding creative possibilities available to you. Be sure to focus on the one or two that hold the most promise for moving you further toward the vision you hold for yourself and your creative work. Don’t be distracted by those that won’t get you to that dream.

Gift, 4 of Coins. Coins is the element of Earth in the realm of home, health, wealth, anything you can touch, taste, or feel, anything physical. Four is a number of stability and structure–or stagnation. In the position of Gift, it’s a reminder that your work is a gift to others. Don’t hold onto it, or work to make it perfect. Instead, let go of it. Be generous with it. Send it out into the world to do its magic.
