The Past Queen of Wands

The Present Ace of Swords

The Future Four of Cups

Tarot in the Land of Mystereum|images/mystereum/reversed/wands13queen.jpg|The Queen of Wands indicates great power to attract what you want. Abundance of mind and body, a fire of life, expresses her. With a love of nature and home indicated, a practicality with money is also present. A life acumen inclusive of a strong and intensely enjoyable balance of business and pleasure reigns. This complete scenario, a vibrant and reflective mind-body-beautiful, has strong and wonderful emotional content to infuse life into every step.

There is strength in kindness and generosity. With the Queen of Wands, you are no sleeping tiger. More so you are a white tiger, awake and present and strong to the degree that there is nothing to prove, and though nothing may be new, you feel and see the original in everything. Your sense of smell may even attune your perception. Reasons are unreasonable here.

Visualise and feel the tiger's life. . .towing your life with the weight of your own body, grace and strength and passion are present and not petitioned. Rather than living your dream, your dream is the heartbeat of all your doings.

* A manner of reading a reversal is to emphasise rather than a reversed meaning, an internal meaning relating more to one's inner self than indicating the outer world. Read the card with your inner context, what it says to you about your inner person.

The Ace of Swords card indicates to stick to the point, make yourself clear. Prepared, stand up for yourself. Meditate options objectively before taking the next logical step. Understand or identify the cause by feeling it. You get what you want by trusting your own personal convictions and inner voice implicitly.

Be mindful of impersonal, indifferent, or even bossy expressions. Cut through the bull while protecting your privacy. Do not let down your guard, and visualise your guard and armour as your health. Keep your wits about you. Feelings rule here over reasons or explanations.

Ideas are present with the Ace of Swords, but with no certainty towards placement. The Ace of Swords presents your present opportunity to cut through the confusion, and shed some new light on the situation that is causing difficulties. Change the light in your home. Wide open blinds! Blast-wash with light. Your ideas are there. Let them cut in to your dance! This is the daily sword-sharpening devotion. Let its roots flower in patience. There is a discipline of the ritual in plants. First year roots. Second year foliage. Third year fruits and flowers.

Swords often represent some type of communications. A problem that you've created for yourself in your own mind, involvement in a situation where a clear decision isn't present, or you've been looping, record-skipping, can't see an end in sight. It is indicated to cut through and look at the core of what is being communicated to you.

Reversed, the Ace of Swords could mean an opportunity that won't really make any difference to the situation. Don't be fooled. Continue your daily sharpening and feel your inner landscape. Your only outburst is recommended to be a smirk of a smile inside or out amidst and during your whetstone strokes, sharpening your sword. Breath is prayer. Pray as breath. Sharpen as breath.

The 4 of Cups indicates one's desires manifesting, good fortune, good luck. Enjoying the fruits of one's labours is indicated. Stagnation is a possibility. . .so is a continual attentive, patient, and present care to your enjoyment! Enjoy what you have made! Responsibility at this time is indicated to be thorough and inherent.
