The Queen of Fire from the Osho Zen deck comes bearing the message that you have so much more to share with the world than you realize!
Its easy to forget that your small, positive actions, words and deeds have a huge impact on the “big picture”. What you do and create has a radiating effect that continues influencing the planet long after you have forgotten all about it. This card reminds you that your contribution doesn’t need to be some big flashy deal to have a transformative impact.
What do you most want to share with your community? What do you want to share with the world? Perhaps you can think of several things! If you could only write one page outlining the most important things you have leaned so far in your life, what would you write? The more you share your gifts and wisdom with others, the brighter your light will grow and the more alive you will become.
Today’s Tarot card is Four of Cups from The Tarot of the Pagan Cats! It suggests that you may be feeling a bit bored with things lately, like nothing really excites you too much these days.
It’s good to follow your intuition when deciding whether or not to pursue something, but the Four of Cups indicates that fear may be masquerading as boredom and ambivalence. So if you are feeling unenthused about something, go deeper into that feeling and see what’s really behind it.
The Four of Cups Tarot card shows that you will be offered something this week – you don’t have to take it if it isn’t right for you, but try not to immediately dismiss it without really thinking it through, as it could be an opportunity of a lifetime!
The Ten of Cups Tarot card is all about enjoying a happy home life and expressing your love and appreciation for your romantic partner, family, friends and pets. You may feel a sudden outpouring of happy, loving energy today – don’t ignore it! Share it.
If you are in a relationship, spend time today really enjoying it. Notice your partners positive qualities and find a way to let them know how much you enjoy their company. Spend time connecting with each other and talking about your day. If you are single, you can express this kind of appreciation to your family, friends and pets.
The key message with the Ten of Cups is to be playful in life. Have fun with those you live with and share time with – don’t take relationships too seriously – spend time laughing and enjoying the comfort and ease that comes with having a happy home.
The Ace of Swords is Monday’s Tarot card! Go for it! – take the bull by the horns and just go for it today. Now is the right time for fresh starts, new projects and taking a chance.
You have an uncanny ability today to cut through the things that hold you back. Self doubt, fear, worry – all of these things can be overcome today. So what would you do right now if you knew you could not fail?
Be on the lookout for fresh insights to old problems and brilliant ideas that mysteriously pop into your head for no apparent reason! You are tapped into a higher energy today that will continue to help you think clearly and make progress all week.
Friday’s oracle card is Visualize Success from Doreen Virtues Angel Therapy Oracle deck. The message on this card is “see yourself doing well in this situation, and have faith in a positive outcome.”
You create your own reality with your thoughts, attitude and energy – and visualization plays a big role in this. The more you can visualize and imagine the reality you want to create, the easier it will be.
If there is a future event that you are feeling nervous or worried about, try visualizing a successful outcome and spend time really feeling and imagining what that would be like. Let your imagination be as detailed as it wants to be. Pretend you are creating this event ahead of time in your mind so you no longer have to fret about it in the present moment.
The main message I get with this card is that there are thousands of different possibilities for you, but the possibility that will manifest into reality depends on your energy, thoughts, beliefs and actions. So align yourself with the outcome that you desire!
Its the first day of November (a rather ordinary month, in my opinion), so it makes sense that the Ordinariness card has come up today! This is also the 8 of Pentacles, which is all about the daily grind of hard work, routines and ordinariness.
The Eight of Pentacles comes to remind you that beauty, happiness and pleasure can be found in the ordinary. Practice just simply being today. Don’t think about goals, dreams, the future or the past. Just enjoy whats going on around you, even if its a bit boring!
The Eight of Pentacles Tarot card also stands for working toward something important. You may feel like you are putting in a lot of hard work and time into a job or project that isn’t really paying off right now. It will eventually if you have patience and enjoy the journey as much as the destination.
Halloween is one of my favorite days of the year – there is always such a fun, magical, mysterious energy to this day! The Seven of Cups is the card I drew and it represents choices, dreams and indecision.
Do you feel like your head has been stuck in the clouds lately? If you have been feeling scattered, the Seven of Cups reminds you that having lots of dreams, interests and choices is something to celebrate. But if you feel like you spend way more time dreaming than actually making your dreams happen, you may want to take a new approach.
The main message I got with this card was that once you identify what your major time wasters and energy zappers are, you will be well on your way to transforming your life.
I thought about this myself and realized that watching TV and spending unproductive time on the internet was draining most of my free time. For the month of November I am going to eliminate TV altogether and limit my internet time and see what kind of a difference it makes in my life.
The Seven of Cups Tarot card prompts you to ask the question: What change can you make today that will enhance the quality of your life and help you get your head out of the clouds?
The Queen of Cups Tarot card, this one is from the Paulina Tarot, comes today to remind you that your dreams are waiting patiently inside of you, wanting to come out!
If you often find yourself wondering if something is possible, the Queen of Cups would tell you that you need not wonder if, but how you can bring something into reality.
All possibilities are already inside of you. It’s up to you to decide which ones you are going to “give birth to” or manifest. It is a matter of opening your mind to what you believe is possible and then consciously aligning yourself with your dream.
Life Coaching Activity
Here is a fun activity to help you get started on mapping out your dreams and creating realistic pathways and inroads in your life to help you get there! For this you will need: colored pens and a large piece of paper (or two regular sized sheets of paper taped together to form a long, rectangular piece).
On the left side of your sheet of paper, write a vertical list of what elements make up your life right now. This could be your job, daily activities, hobbies – basically what you do in an average week. My Life Now:
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
On the far right side of the paper you write your dreams. You can be totally free and creative here – you don’t need to be realistic. Just list the elements of your ideal life! Sometimes it can be fun to draw little pictures beside each dream. My Dreams….
__________________________
__________________________
__________________________
__________________________
In the center of the paper, draw a big heart (or globe) in this you will brainstorm all your positive qualities– your gifts, talents, learned skills, likeable traits, etc.
Now, in the space between the heart and your dreams, write down how you would like your life to be like one year from now. You should be somewhat realistic here – only write down things that you believe will be achievable in one year. My Life in One Year:
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
___________________________
In the space between your life now and the heart, write down 5 small steps you will take in the next couple of months in order to move closer to your one year goal. Underneath this, make a list of all the people that will help you on your path (such as friends, teachers, mentors, family).
You can put this up on your wall or fridge, or tuck it away and peek at it every now and then. You will surprised how quickly some of your goals manifest after writing them down like this!
Today’s Tarot card is the Five of Wands, a card of minor struggles, squabbles and healthy competition.
You may feel more tempted than usual today to disagree with people, try to prove yourself right or instigate arguments. If you can, try to resist!
This card also refers to inner struggle between different aspects of yourself. You may find that you feel like lounging on the couch all evening, while your more industrious side thinks you should finish a project, or do chores. Or your rational side may squabble with your more emotional side when it comes to decision making.
Whatever it is that you experience today, it will help you to develop a healthy sense of humor about it. Learn to laugh at your ego and see the lighter side of a situation. Remember what is important to you and focus your attention on creating harmony and cooperation in your life.
