The Daily Draw: Nine of Wands, Reversed

Friday. Weary. The last few days were long, working towards today’s software release. The last few nights were spent setting up the playschool website. Did the school run this morning so I’m later than usual. Now the road ahead is closed.

The Queen of swords is experienced, intelligent, and quite formidable.

Meditation is a necessity This is a card of meditation and reflection, looking inwards.  This card says to me “There’s been enough going on in your life lately, it’s not time to take on something new.

Daily Draw: Nine of Wands

If you lived in the states in the early 60’s, you may remember a fellow named John Cameron Swayze advertising Timex watches on television, in much the same way that Barry Scott now advertises Cillit Bang, although perhaps less loudly and with a bit more of the gravitas you would expect from a news commentator.Continue reading “Daily Draw: Nine of Wands”
