National Ego - Weekly Tarot Horoscopes - September 29 - October 5

The biggest opportunity we have ever had as a nation sits squarely on our shoulders for the next 3 weeks. It is confusing, upsetting, and terrifying and that does not begin to describe how it really feels. We can make headway through a lot of traps we have set for ourselves but we still have much to learn.

The cards show we have the opportunity to walk away from what is not real. The blinders are off, finally, and we begin to see that we need to rearrange our place in the world. The idea of fixing ourselves and not something outside of ourselves takes hold. If we could just start to see ourselves as stewards and not owners we will have conquered the largest part of ego, that same ego that seems to have had a huge hand in creating the problems we have in the first place.

The number 8 is prominent in the reading as well as the suit of Coins, not surprising. 8 is a money number, it also indicates a connection between the above and below, or the internal and the external. It reads for me as a point of crossing or indicates a crossroads. In this instance a crossroads for consciousness. We are fast approaching a split not between the haves and the have-not's but between the ego identified and the ego aware. 8 in the tarot is linked to the Magician card, the Strength card and the Chariot card.

If you are tied into psychological time, as Eckhart Tolle calls it, or tied into ego, identifying with the outer world totally and not accepting the inner world, then this is a point in existence where opportunities to shift away from ego begin to wane. The longer we stay tied into ego with no attempt to recognize the power inside us, the more real that ego becomes and along with it depression, fear, anxiety, violence, abuse, addiction, slavery. It becomes more and more difficult to find your way back. Any addict will tell you so.

So start with yourself and stop reacting to the discussion outside of you (that includes the chattering in the mind) and start responding and acting toward the life inside you and watch your circumstances change. “Things” don't matter during a hurricane but people's lives do—aren't we in the middle of the biggest hurricane you've ever seen?

The final weeks before the election will be down right bizarre.

Don't spend it all in one place.

Strength Is The Secret Code - Weekly Tarot Horoscopes

March 4 - March 10

The tarot horoscopes this week focus in a huge way on the Strength card – remember when I “read” these horoscopes I am using the foundation card as shown plus others for clarification and Strength showed up in many of the clarifications. Strength is about self-control, about inner discipline, about using the inner nature in appropriate ways. It is matched with the process of digestion where food is transformed into fuel for the body, and yes, parallels with poor eating habits are part of this.

A good way to consciously step into and use the Strength card is to surround yourself with what you want to become. The experiences, the people, the foods, the words, the objects and the thoughts that you choose to surround you and fill you are what you become. Surround yourself and begin to interact with the world and person you want to become and watch your being change. Sorry, no instant lotto winners here as this process requires focus and attention. Find yourself wandering from the mark? Not a problem, just bring your Self back and begin again, repetition is key. Your subconscious responds best to sharp, clear images. That’s why television programs and especially the nightly news have such a huge and unfortunate impact on the world, especially us Americans and our youth - we become what we clothe ourselves with.

The beauty of being human? Our brains can handle any change we want to make, it’s never too late to go to the next level. As always, you are in charge of what you do with this information so make the best of it! Strength is The Secret.
