October 22 - October 28
Here are some thoughts I have had this week.
- Sometimes you must just let go of preconceived ideas.
- Our minds know how to order and organize to survive. But what if that is because our consciousness leads it to do so.
- What if we become more comfortable with being uncomfortable, develop an appreciation for ambiguity, smile to ourselves in public and sing at the top of our lungs at a red light?
Here is what I do know.
- We must learn to appreciate ambiguity. When we find ourselves locked into a thought, one that says it has to be this way, one that sends us into a personal tailspin that entails constant brain chatter and a surprising level of anger, we must look to our long held beliefs.
- It isn’t about them and what they have said or done, it is about us and how we choose to perceive it, think about it, live with it. This is not to make lightly of violent or abusive circumstances, this is to frame them in a manner in which to learn by and move on so as not to dwell.
- Dwelling should be about our environment and what a dwelling can do to support and not terrorize. It shouldn’t be about creating a rut where there is no need for one.
I’m working with the Star card at the moment. Viewing the Star card before a meditation, or meditative movement, such as yoga, can assist the inner knowing to surface in a clearer manner. Revelation is often tied to this card. This would be an inner revelation that does not come in words but seeps in on a very deep level and informs the psyche that it is possible to shift and receive. I am finding this card disruptive on one level and spiritually moving on another. This may be due to The Tower card that precedes it or the Moon card that follows it or a combination of both. I have yet to discover which. I'll let you know if and when I figure it out.
Manifesting Deep Desire - Weekly Tarot Horoscopes
October 15 - October 21
I want to warn you about a particular pitfall I faced these last several weeks. I have talked a lot in this blog about intent, focus and attention. I have talked about choosing one thing at a time to manifest and the idea of creating a visual image and holding it in the mind as you move through your daily life, knowing that it is being created as you wish it to be. I speak to you from my own experiences and beliefs and so when I realized I was experiencing something potentially detrimental I knew I had to tell you about it.
Here it is: I almost did not recognize a result I had long desired and that had finally manifested for me. This experience made me wonder if I had gotten there before and didn’t know it. I have been so busy making sure that my daily life provided me with a way of physically surviving that I had created a particular momentum in the physical world that really had nothing to do with my deepest desires except to give me a financial avenue. I always keep my deepest desires in my thoughts but physical life has a demanding presence that insists we keep up. There is nothing particularly wrong with this as I believe it happens when you walk in several dimensions. It is, however, a very demanding existence at times.
I recognized this event through several weeks of on again off again illness that zapped me of energy and required me to figure out what was happening to me or possibly get fired. It was during a weekend of doubt that I realized I had taken on way too much and that the second job I had just acquired was the springboard I had been looking for. I new this when it showed up but I saw what I thought was an opportunity to gain some financial ground and continued to work a 50 hour week. Somehow I didn’t recognize it as the turning point that it was and instead I followed the momentum of the physical world. The result was illness and a month of struggle--the very struggle I had been attempting to avoid. LOL!
So what did I learn that I want to pass on to you?
There is a need for consistent self-analysis--notice I didn’t say constant, I said consistent. You must give yourself time and opportunity to experience or there is no point to any of this so constant won’t do anything but wear you down. Constant has its own form of stress.
Stress that causes illness needs to be addressed and dissipated. You must recognize your role in it. You must shift your thinking to remove it. Sometimes it means shifting a job assignment, moving to a different department in the same company or trading shifts with someone else. And sometimes it means chucking the whole thing and creating something new for your self. Be wise about this but don’t be afraid to tumble.
The body and environment follow when your thinking makes connections and truly understands a new concept. Once I realized I could let go of the first, and very stressful, job and not return, the relief and leap happened without effort.
Educate yourself about yourself. If I did not understand my personal symbols and be as consistent as I have been about my deepest desires I would not have recognized the moment when I did.
Blame is not part of this. If you find your mind creating blame scenarios and difficulty then you have not let go. Letting go means just that, completely letting go and moving on. When you let go in the mind you are creating space for new life to grow.

Weaving Desire Into Your Life - Weekly Tarot Horoscopes
October 8 - October 16
Mistakes. Humans make them.
Perfection. Humans desire it.
Perfecting mistakes. Humans should do more of this. Why? Mistakes are an opportunity to touch spirit, a place to stop and listen and have a conversation with yourself. They are there to get our attention. Some are much more dramatic than others and some are never noticed except by us. And still some grab the attention of the world, like the train wreck we can’t take our eyes off of.
My obsession with pattern leads me to the spirit line of the Navajo weavers. The spirit line is a thread running from the center of the weaving all the way to the outer edge. It is often in a different color or texture than the pattern of the weaving and most definitely not part of the pattern. This spirit thread allows the spirit of the weaving egress. The idea being that the weaving doesn’t trap the spirit by its enclosure, or the nature of its pattern. Instead, “the mistake,” as Western culture often refers to it, creates the avenue for spirit to travel and gain more knowledge. It is not trapped in the pattern of its maker.
This begs the question, what patterns are you trapping your spirit with? Make your mistakes a way out of the trap.
FYI: Venus is very active right now. Creativity is flowing and imagination is being sparked. Make sure you give it a structure to manifest in.
