Eight of Cups reversed/Three of
Wands reversed. The Eight of Cups (Saturn, discipline,
responsibility, limitation, law and order, in Pisces, “I believe,” feeling,
duality, suffering, soul growth) in an upright position tells of an ending or a
decline or a change of direction, often one associated with emotions, and it
offers one possible response to that decline or change: moving on. My Eight of Cups is reversed, and
re-evaluation may not be my strength today. The Three of Wands (Sun, the inner core of a person or
situation, the deepest self and personal power, in Aries, “I want,” action
oriented, pioneering, assertive) in an upright position is a card of planning
ahead that tells of the excitement that comes with good possibilities at
hand. This one is also reversed,
and they both have the concept of action in common, so today may be a good day
for treading water.
My Thoth card is the Nine of
Pentacles. “Gain” is Uncle Al’s
keyword for this one. The
Nine of Disks (Venus, beauty, allure, relationships, in Virgo, “I serve,”
practical, analytical, work and service oriented) in an upright position tells
of accomplishment through the imposition of discipline. Perhaps this card is not as active as
the other two above, but it still implies the imposition of discipline onto a
situation, and perhaps that is enough action for the day.
My Legacy card is the Six of
Swords, flavored by Justice reversed. The Six of Swords (Mercury, reason, intelligence, education,
communication, in Aquarius, “I know,” friendships, the group, cause oriented)
in an upright position is about balance, healing, moving towards a better
place, and even about learning the science behind things that work (because
understanding why they work makes them more effective). This also allows us to extricate
ourselves from unhealthy situations.
Yes, I am beginning to see a pattern here. My Six of Swords is being flavored by Justice reversed. Justice is a card of adjustment, and it corresponds
with the element of Air (hot/separates and wet/adapts, and quick, animated
energy that usually brings problems or challenges that bring growth), Libra
(“we are,” partnerships, balance, cooperation), Lamed (ox goad; training or
teaching), and the Path between Tiphareth (the hub of the creation process
where energies harmonize and focus to illuminate and clarify) and Geburah (the
place where forms and structures are challenged or affirmed). My card is reversed, and it hints at a
danger of misjudging, or of allowing prejudice to cloud judgment. I may be a bit sensitive today, but
overall the energies are flowing toward recovery.
My 6-digit date number is 2,
the number of balance, polarity, and the energy of “distance between.”
My horoscopes: “Try
not to be harsh and judgmental today, Sagittarius. You don't understand others'
perspectives and the codes they live by. Differences are no reason to find
fault with people. You have a powerful personality that's perceptive and
creative. Use these gifts in a positive, healthy manner instead of using them
to get down on others and their behavior”
And: “You
have been caught up in a social whirlwind lately, and today you are happy to
stay home by yourself and unwind. You might want to get out pen and paper and
record some of the incidents of the past few days. It could be that you've
gained new insight or understanding into a particular problem. Some quiet time
spent analyzing the situation could yield some interesting solutions.”
My Shadowscapes Insight is regarding the Knight of Pentacles. The Knight of Pentacles takes the focus
of the Nine and turns it into a crusade.
His vision is narrow, but that means he is not easily distracted from
his task. Is that the way to go
today? Knowing exactly what we
want and striving with determination to attain it is not a bad thing, but taken
to extremes, it could cause me to miss something important. Balance!!
Ugh, what a day. I actually was ready to leave a bit
early this morning, and then went out to start my car. LOL, that is where the trouble
began. I ended up driving home at
about 50 mph, all 160 miles of the trip, because of a car issue. Now I cross my fingers and hope it
isn’t anything too huge. I am
tired; four hours plus of waiting for the car to die does that to ya. But my car held up, thankfully, and fer
sher it could have been much worse.
