Tarot of the Day: Ten of Wands

Your Card for today.  Meditate upon the meaning this card might have for you since it showed up at this exact moment. Not everyone saw this.  Not everyone attracted this message onto their monitor.  YOU DID. There are no mistakes. Feel free to share.

MEANING: You may feel as though you are carrying a burden. You may want to look and see if there are any ways that you might lighten your load. You may find part of the burden you are carrying emotionally belongs to someone else. It will be important for you to pace yourself now. Don’t try to do too much.  If you are tired from working very hard, give yourself a break.

Work: Your workload may be unrealistically heavy now. Don’t hesitate to ask for help or ask questions. If you’re asked for something new on top of your already full plate, ask them which thing you should not do to make room to do the new thing? If you are looking for a position without much success, do not lose heart. Keep trying, and you cannot fail.

Love: The appearance of the 10 usually signifies a hard place in a relationship. It can be that your beloved is undergoing a rough time that has nothing to do with your relationship but needs your support. Most often, however, it indicates that there is something in the relationship which needs to be examined, looked at, and considered. You will not gain by pretending that there are no problems. If you’re in the market for love, do not despair. Your time will eventually come, but perhaps now is a good time to halt your search and just take some time for rest and reflection.

Finances: You are probably feeling over-burdened and stressed about money. Look at your situation calmly and dispassionately, and make a plan. A wise man said “expect the best, but plan for the worst.” You can do both things now. Avoiding the problems will not make them disappear. Be creative in your problem-solving and don’t hesitate to ask for help if you need it.

Health: Stress may have taken a toll on your body, but you can re-build. Calm down, get adequate rest and sleep.  Consider supplementation if you need it; stress  depletes the vitamins in your body. Massage and vacation can work wonders now. If fatigue and sleeplessness and physical problems have persisted, get treatment – even if you have no money and no health insurance, there is help available to you. Find it.

Spirituality: Don’t be afraid to reach out for assistance if you need it. But you also have to learn when enough is enough, and when it is time to get out from under your burdens. The major theme here is to take good care of yourself, in every way, as to do so is especially critical now.
