Don’t Get Pulled Off Your Creative Path

MONDAY TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 10/21/2019

Theme, The Chariot. This Major Arcana card suggests success with speed, but success is only arrived at if you don’t get pulled off your creative path by competing goals. As the charioteer, be clear about where you want you and your creative work to go, and what your desired destination is. If you keep your eyes on the prize, as they say, you transfer that energy, that vision, through the reins to the horses. The clearer you are in your vision, the faster the arrival at success.

Focus, 7 of Cups. Cups is the element of Water in the realm of heart, emotions, dreams, intuition and creativity. Seven is a number of action. In this case, it’s the action of exploring too many possibilities, of being distracted when you need to stay focused. This week, ask yourself where you need to maintain focus. When you are tempted to spend time on something easier or less demanding than your current creative project, ask if that distraction is going to pull you off your path. What is your creative priority this week?

Action, 7 of Swords. Swords is the element of Air in the realm of mind, thoughts, attitudes, beliefs and communication. Seven, again, is action. But here, the action may be one of being aware of the value of your work. Are you underestimating it so that you leave yourself vulnerable to thieves who would steal, not the work, but your confidence and belief in its value and worthines? Recognize its value this week. That will help insure that you don’t get pulled off your creative path.

Gift, 3 of Coins. Coins is the element of Earth in the realm of home, health and wealth. Anything you can touch, taste or feel. When you keep your eyes on the prize, stay focused on your work then you are given the gift of time in your studio or creative space. Lovely, concentrated, creative time for hands-on, focused work. And isn’t that the best gift?
