Time to Shake Up Your Creative Work

MONDAY’S TAROT MESSAGE FROM THE MUSE, 5/21/18

Theme, The Tower. When this Major Arcana card shows up it’s time to rock and roll, to shake up your creative work. The shake up may be in a particular project, your process, or just how you are approaching your creative life. Wherever things have become too reliable, to structured, look for something to shake you up a little and make you rethink some aspect of your creative work.

Focus, 10 of Wands. Wands is the element of Fire in the realm of spirit, creativity, career and work. Ten is a number of tying up loose ends and resting from your labors before beginning again. This week, ask what is the project or projects you need to finish up and what do you need to do to prepare for the next one?

Action, 8 of Wands. Eights in the tarot are about movement, and for Wands, fast, powerful movement. This week, take action to give a current project that is past the midway point, a final push towards finishing. It has momentum; keep it going with the same energy with which you started it.

Gift, 2 of Cups. Cups is the element of Water in the realm of heart, emotions, dreams, intuition, and creativity. This week, after you shake up your creative work, let go of old projects, and give a final push to one in process, look for the gift of partnership, collaboration or support from someone close to you, or someone who wants to help you in your work, like a critique partner. Someone who sees your vision for your work.
