Wednesday, July 17th, 2024 Tarot Reading

Greetings, dear seekers of wisdom. Today’s tarot reading dances around themes of energy, action, and creative passion. Let us delve into the profound wisdom of our chosen triad: the Knight of Cups, the Knight of Wands, and the Page of Wands.

Our initial journey takes us on the path of the Knight of Cups, an emblem of strong emotions and the dreamer. The Knight on his horse is the embodiment of the passionate affair between the heart and the spiritual quest, he is an escort who, with elegance and charm, invites you to follow your dreams and desires.

”The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it.” -Marcus Aurelius

The cascade of your thoughts and emotions shapes the reality of your being. The Knight calls you to ride along, but remember not to let your heart’s reigns go untamed, reminding us of one of the fundamental Stoic principles, having discipline over our passions and emotions. It’s an open door to meditate on your feelings and the way you express them. Do they serve your greater good or do they distract you from it?

The fire within brings us to our next luminary, the Knight of Wands. The Knight charges forward with a blaze in his eyes, embodying energetic action, adventure and quick movement. But beneath the thrill of the quest lurks impulsiveness and haste.

”To what service is my soul committed? Constantly ask yourself this and thoroughly examine yourself by seeing how you relate to that part inside you which is divine.” -Marcus Aurelius

Impulsivity can lead us into the embrace of chaos, or on an exhilarating adventure. The crucial factor is intent. Is the swift movement and action serving a higher purpose, or merely stirring the cauldron of unrest? The lesson here is to harness your energy, align with your divine purpose, and assertively charge forward.

Lastly, we turn our gaze upon the youthful energy of the Page of Wands. The Page embarks on a new journey carrying the torch of creative ideas. We find ourselves here at the crossroads of an inspiring initiative, but journey beginnings are often accompanied by unpredictability and uncertainty.

”If you really want to escape the things that harass you, what you’re needing is not to be in a different place but to be a different person.” - Seneca

Let the Page’s fiery illumination light your way through any apprehension towards the unforeseen. Embrace your new venture as a stoic philosopher would, fully aware that change is the universe’s only constant. Be adaptive, open, and willing to evolve along the way.

Journal Prompt: Reflect on the areas in your life where you’re charging ahead like the Knight of Wands. Are you harnessing your energy for your higher good or just being carried away by your impulses? Explore opportunities to embrace the Page of Wands’ energy and embark on a new, creative venture, and consider how the Knight of Cups’ emotional intelligence could guide you.
