ckocher, inspired me to pull out my tarot cards and create a spread. I keep them in a beautifully handmade crocheted or knitted pouch. A friend made it for me years ago out of a variegated silk yarn that is green, blue and purple. She added two silver horse charms to the draw string. It is all so very much me. I have a quest tarot deck that I bought in 2002. It is my very first and only deck and I love it. It has been a few years since I pulled it out. I was lucky I didn't lose it in the fire in '08.
I believe my question was not specific enough for that first spread, but I still got quite a bit out of it. The overall impression for goals to work on in 2014 was to be happy with what I have, finding balance and harmony and togetherness. In the quest spread, there is a card that specifically relates to me and the energy around me. That card was the Three of Swords, Mourning. (heartbreak, sadness, feelings of loss, being separated from those I need to be near) After contemplating the card, I realized I really have been in that state since the summer. I have wanted to be near my mother as she has gone through the trials of cancer and to hug her desperately after her brother died unexpectedly.
I have decided to make sure I get to bed at a decent time, (not too hard for me), and get up at 6:30 each morning. That is about 1/2 an hour earlier and before the first kiddo is up. I actually did that this morning, though it wasn't actually intentional. My plan was to begin next week. I woke up when Ned got up to get in the shower and remembered I forgot to set the coffee pot up for him. So, I was up at 6:20, made coffee and breakfast and had time to myself.
I pulled the tarot out again and did a simple three card daily spread. It was lovely and full of positivity, pretty much my state of mind this morning. I then had my breakfast and coffee and Katey didn't wake up until 7:40. Bonus! It is almost 8:15 now and I need to get Nicky motivated to get ready for preschool. I am hoping you all have a wonderful day!
