Knight of Wands: See Past The Expected

The Knight of Wands, China Tarot

Knight of Wands Tarot Card: The Power of Optimism

Today, tap into your Knight of Wands piece of yourself and be optimistic. There is something you want to get done- a goal you want to accomplish- and it seems kind of impossible. It’s not impossible though, so don’t worry about what it seems like. You know- you just know there is a way to get this done even if you haven’t figured it out yet. You know if you set your intention to figure this out, an answer will come. You are creative like that. You are able to see past the obvious into the unexplored. In the unexplored is where the answer is, so you spend all the time you need there knowing the answer will come. And it will.

People are amazed that you are able to go into these other realms to find what you need there. To you though, it’s just a normal way to do things, nothing special. This is what it means to tap into the Knight of Wands piece of yourself. It means you can remain optimistic because you know you will find what you need even when those around you don’t understand how or why it is possible. — Jim Larsen

8 of Swords: The Path Ahead Is Open

8 of Swords Tarot Card: See what is in front of you

It is the 8 of swords piece of us that make us feel stuck. This is logical because sometimes we are stuck. Haven’t you ever been in a situation where you want to move forward, but somehow, some way, you just can’t seem to because there are things blocking you and making it seemingly difficult to? It is normal to have these times, so when they happen in your life, don’t feel like there is something wrong.

The thing to keep in mind though is, just because you are feeling it and experiencing it now, it doesn’t mean it will last forever. When we feel stuck, it is normal to get into the mindset of stuckness. We may get so used to the idea that we cannot move forward that we forget that things can change. We forget we ourselves have to power to make the changes we want. We start to think that the way things are is the only way things can be, and so we accept our limitations and stay in one place. What we truly need to realize though, is that situations change. As they are one moment, they may not be the next.

Where conditions may have been such that we were stuck one minute, the path ahead may clear the next. This can be from our own ideas, mindsets, and attitudes. It may also be from the literal clearing away of obstacles in front of us. The important thing to remember here, is that we must be able to see the changes as they occur. Do not get so stuck in one idea that things are in your way that you don’t realize when you move beyond your obstacles and they are now behind you. Keep your eyes open See what is in front of you. Look back and see what is behind you. Notice how far you have come? Let nothing slow you down. This is the piece of you that is the 8 of Swords. It encourages you to take time to examine your circumstances and reassess when you feel stuck, because maybe you’re not stuck anymore but you just haven’t figured that out yet. — Jim Larsen

10 of Wands: Choose a Priority


10 of Wands Tarot Card: Shift your focus

We get to that point sometimes when we have had so many ideas, and have been so open to new opportunities that we get the idea that we can do it all, so we take it all on. It may seem okay at first, but the day can easily come when you realize you are spending so much energy trying to accomplish it all that you are not accomplishing any of it. And why is this? It is because when you are focused on one thing, you think about the things you are not focused on, and you feel bad about that.

You feel like you are not doing enough, so you shift your focus. Now, as you are focused on this other thing, your mind is still on something else you are not working on. This becomes a cycle that keeps you from finishing anything you are trying to get done. This can give you the impression that you are unable to do anything. What can be done about that?

Pick one of these things. Pick any of them. Don’t even try to prioritize them, just pick one. Now forget the others. It’s not easy to do, but do it anyway. Forget the others and stay focused on this one. Work on it. Get it done. Do it! Get this finished, and it will a load off your mind and weight off your shoulders. You will get a sense of accomplishment that tells you that you do have what it takes to finish what you started.

Take the affirmation that you are capable of finishing things and focus on the next thing you want to finish. Again, don’t prioritize, just pick one and do it. Keep going. Before long, you will have accomplished a great many things that you would not have had you let your mind remain scattered among them all. This is the 10 of Wands piece of you. Honor it by getting focused and getting things done. –Jim Larsen

Highway Oracle: 55 and Fate

The Highway Oracle by Jim Larsen

Highway Oracle: Fate

Fate can take you down some strange and winding roads sometimes. This road can have a lot of twists and turns on it. It can have its share of blind curves and no passing zones. If you want to get to where it is taking you through, with strong faith that it is taking you to where you can be the strongest and best version of yourself and best version of yourself, you stay on it no matter what. You accept that the road may not be the easiest road to navigate, but you stick with it anyway because you blindly have faith that it will get easier eventually and that it will take you to a destination that is the best for you to get to.

On the road of fate, the journey itself is meant to shape you. It is designed to give you the optimized opportunities to test yourself and assess yourself for your ultimate enlightenment. So when the going is difficult, appreciate the difficulties for the strength you will develop in it and the momentum that you generate to propel yourself through them.

We each have our road of fate to travel down. For some, this road is congested with traffic from like-minded travelers, for some it is a solitary journey. Often, our road runs parallel with others. Other times, it merges. It is not uncommon for our road to have miles of uncertainty ahead until it is gives way to an understandable geography. Whatever the nature of our road of fate may be, it takes us where we need to be. –Jim Larsen
