So How are Those New Year’s Resolutions Going? In an effort to kick-start my brain this morning I had a look at what I’ve written about this card. I found I was pretty happy with my thoughts about it from a little over a year ago, for example: On the RWS version of this card weContinue reading “The Daily Draw: The Devil, Reversed”

The Daily Draw: Eight of Pentacles, Reversed
Pay Attention to Detail The Eight of Cups is the card of the skilled craftsperson, if not yet the master. So this is someone who is quite knowledgeable in their field with a strong foundation and an awareness of detail, yet this person is still learning. Ideally, aren’t we all? With that in mind, thisContinue reading “The Daily Draw: Eight of Pentacles, Reversed”
The Daily Draw: Ace of Cups, Reversed
The January Blahs The Ace of Cups represents the beginnings of, or gifts stemming from positive emotions, love, spirituality. For example, it might signify the birth of a child, the beginning of a true love relationship, or a deepening of spiritual awareness. This oversized chalice is so full that water pours over the edge likeContinue reading “The Daily Draw: Ace of Cups, Reversed”
The Daily Draw: The Empress
And so two work projects, a Yule, a Christmas and a New Year later, we are back. Getting Back to (My Own) Nature The Empress epitomizes the earth mother type. She is in harmony with nature and keenly aware of all her senses. She is nurturing and supportive. She also represents abundance in its manyContinue reading “The Daily Draw: The Empress”
The Daily Draw: Page of Cups Reversed
Study Your Emotions While pages can represent young people, it is just as likely that a page will represent someone with the qualities of a young person or someone doing things a young person would do, like being a student. Which is a long winded way of saying that, for me, the Page of CupsContinue reading “The Daily Draw: Page of Cups Reversed”
The Daily Draw: Three of Cups Reversed
Push Yourself Out The three of cups has a great energy of community, friendship, high spirits. It’s a perfect card for heading into the festive season. So when it comes up reversed, it’s a sign that something is not right in those areas. Maybe you’ve got a case of the pre-Yule/Christmas blahs. Around these parts,Continue reading “The Daily Draw: Three of Cups Reversed”
The Daily Draw: Eight of Wands
One Door Closes and Another Opens And so we continue on with what is, so far, a pretty positive wand week. On the RWS version of the Eight of Wands, all eight rods are sailing through the air against a clear, blue sky. They are on their way back to earth having spent their energyContinue reading “The Daily Draw: Eight of Wands”
The Daily Draw: Six of Wands
Feeling Bad About Doing Well This isn’t a mistake. This card did come up yesterday also. So the obvious question to myself was, “what did I miss”? So I consulted my sources and a pendulum and soon realized something big about the Six of Wands and its relationship to most of us that really needsContinue reading “The Daily Draw: Six of Wands”
The Daily Draw: Six of Wands
A Job Well Done On the RWS six of Wands, a person sits above the crowd on horseback, head held high. Even the horse looks a bit pleased with itself. A laurel wreath hangs from the wand the rider is holding. Externally, this card is a clear sign of success. Whatever this person has putContinue reading “The Daily Draw: Six of Wands”
The Daily Draw: Five of Wands, Reversed
Conflict Avoidance is Not Conflict Resolution The fives in the minor arcana are all about change and challenge—there’s no room for complacency. Maybe that’s part of the reason the Fives of Wands can seem to take such a wide variety of positions on the theme of conflict, competition, inconvenient hassles, especially when reversed. Maybe it’sContinue reading “The Daily Draw: Five of Wands, Reversed”
