tarot yesterday and today
I did pull a tarot card yesterday and it did seem encouraging but I didn't feel like writing about it then.
the Visconti Tarot deck - 6 of wands
Just as a design and knowing nothing of it's "meaning" I like the image with its growing flowers and leaves traveling through it. Six - a good number - regular and strong, easy to get along with and work with. Greens and browns - my colors. A card of summer, growth and being centered. When I looked it up I found this meaning for the card (from BiddyTarot.com):
The Six of Wands depicts a man wearing a victory wreath around his head, riding a white horse through a crowd of cheering people. The white horse represents strength, purity, and the success of an adventure, and the crowd of people demonstrates public recognition for the man’s achievements. The wand held by the rider also has a wreath tied to it, further emphasizing success and achievement. He is not afraid to show off to others what he has accomplished in his life so far, and even better, the people around him cheer him along.
I took that as an encouragement to get over that stupid lady publicly shaming us on Sunday. Just cause I made a mistake (and the kids made a mistake) there is more to who we are than that.
Today's card:
from the Dream Inspiration Card deck
I am the one who...
...is amazing! I come from a shabby place, paint chipping from the walls. I keep the shutters closed - people stand at the door and whisper about me. They doubt me. They wonder. I can float though. I am weightless. It seems as though I am moored by that finger. Without it touching something I would float away entirely. I usually do this amazing thing in the privacy of my own home but now there are people watching. The people don't exactly look hostile, just doubtful.
Today is the day I have decided to start the process of contacting the customer about the mosaic for her kitchen - going to give her a call. I have been avoiding that for a while now. I always have a tendency to doubt myself! I think she originally called me way back in October but I said I would be too busy with jewelry orders with Christmas coming and then usually January is a busy month too so I wanted to wait till February. It's time. The card looks like it is happening in a kitchen, a very bare kitchen and the table looks like a mosaic table so that is what makes me think it might be relating to this mosaic commission. I have cleared enough stuff away from my mosaic materials in the basement (I'm not done with clearing and organizing the whole basement by far but I can get to my materials) so really I can get started. Let me keep in mind when I talk to her - I am Amazing!
