Enthrone Yourself in Creative Authority

MONDAY TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 3/30/2020

Theme, The Emperor. This Major Arcana card is all about power and authority. This week, look for opportunities to enthrone yourself in creative authority. That is, recognize that you are the authority on your creativity and creative work. Take control and take responsibility for it. The sign of Aries, a Fire sign, encourages you to allow the passion for your work to drive you forward.

Focus, The Star. Another Major Arcana card, the Star is what is needed in these challenging times. She provides solace, healing, hope, and inspiration. Ask yourself this week, “Who or what inspires me? Who or what soothes and heals my soul so that I can give myself to my creative work? What is the source of light and illumination that lets me see my way forward in the dark of creative confusion, misdirection, or hopelessness?”

Action, 8 of Wands. Wands is the element of Fire in the realm of spirit, creativity, career, and work. Eight in the tarot is about movement and change. In the Wands, it is fast movement with lots of energy behind it. Notice that Sagittarius, another Fire sign, is faintly in the background. This is the sign of the storyteller and traveler, a restless and adventurous energy. One or more creative projects are near completion and have considerable energy behind them. Take action this week to finish up so that they are ready to be put out into the world. Channel your restlessness and desire to be out and about into finishing the work.

Gift, Queen of Swords. Swords is the element of Air, in the realm of mind, thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, and communications. The Queen is the mistress of the element, knowing how to use it effectively in service to others and herself. This week, when you enthrone yourself in creative authority, you receive the gift of being able to communicate clearly and with…authority about your creative work, without false modesty, and getting your point across.
