INVITATION TAROT/NUMEROLOGY DAILY… …8… Balance

Standard

18 march  2012    >  8/17  >  Balance/adjustment/justice/The Star

 

TAROT HAIKU

All is not fairness

Justice lays warped perceptions

Just be nice all-ways

 

Today’s invitation comes from the number ‘8’ and Balance along with it’s Tarot ally, The Star (#17). Some tarot-authored decks, differ on the # 8 Major Arcana; Strength/Lust or Justice/Balance.   I made a choice to use Crowleys delineation making the ‘8’ card Balance/Adjustment/Justice. Simply, a personal choice.  Within either choice is the opportunity to consider how you balance your life, how you consider the choices you make to address inner conflict, or trust what you know is the way to sustain equality within yourself and around you.

 

In the ‘8’, is the management of your resources, your time, your money, and the consideration of how you control and have power; how you lead yourself and others.  It is considered by some the card of Divine Order.  It will be about how you order your life and live in the material world.  How you manage it and others.  It can be dictatorial, and overly controlling.  Be Mindful.

 

If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.

 

Today is a day to consider…

*What will you reach for that balances and adjusts your life?

*How do you maintain your well being?

*How do you use your power and resources?

*How do you manage your time?

*What needs you to manage it right now?

*What does your body tell you that you need to know?

*What will you do that makes a difference in your ‘every day’?

*How do you listen to the world around you before you take action?

*Can you let yourself Shine?  What does that feel like?

 

Please feel free to ask me a question.  I welcome comments and feedback.

Invitation tarot/numerology daily… 6 …. lovers

Standard

16 march 2012   >  Lovers/Devil

 

TAROT HAIKU

 

Life without loving

Impossible joyless breath

Laugh in spite of it

 

Todays invitation is about relationships with others and yourself.  In the ‘6’ there is a great desire for harmony, there is the nurturer, the care giver, the humanitarian, the giving of the self so that others thrive, and the focus on hearth and home.  If your number is ‘6’ (add your date of birth together) you also have a charm about you that can be irresistible. Problems rise when you have given yourself away and have nothing for yourself.  It’s easy to see the Lovers in this number.  

Now that Devil… well…The Devil is the trickster, he/she who sets before you choices that tease you from your path and suggest that you might want to try something different, a new fruit to flavor your life.  When you begin to question who you are and what you do, the Devil will slip into your mind, and tickle at what challenges these questions. The Devil, that little poky voice within, pushes at your marginal resolve, into something that might not be the something you had in mind.  If you know what I mean?  The Devil will challenge your relationships; the ones you have with others and the the one you have with yourself. Thus, I am of the mind that the Devil performs a gift for you on your Path of life so that you can really have a sense of your integrity, your authenticity, and how you allow harmony and love in your life. 

 

As always…If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTION TO PONDER

 

How do you sustain harmony and balance in your life?

When do you notice that you have ‘giving yourself away’ and there isn’t enough for just you?

If the ‘Devil made you do it’, what would you have done otherwise?

What patterns rise for you when life is going well and balanced, and you get restless to stir the pot up by creating disharmony?  Why?

How do you make sure that you are taking care of yourself as well as others?

How does the ‘be-devilment’ remind you of who you really are?

How do you trick yourself into believing the unbelievable?

How will you nurture your relationships in a healthy way?

How do you make friends with your devilish side?

What would you like to do differently from your usually pattern of caregiving that still feels like you are giving and receiving?

 

INVITATION TAROT/NUMEROLOGY DAILY …13… death

Standard

14 march  2012   >  13/4/0  >   Death/Emperor/Fool

 

TAROT HAIKU

 

Slither old skin off

Re-new commitment to self

Love all you’ve become

 

A lucky ‘13’ day.  That’s how I like to think of it.  A day, a year if it’s your birthday, of transformation.  Ending that give way to new beginnings.  Ridding of old ‘stuff’ to make way for the new.  ‘4’, the Emperor likes order, structure, rules, a form to work in.  A home and family to support and give to.  Death, questions all that you possess, all that you give attachment to, be it body, mind, or spirit.   Transformation ask that you let go to let in what might better serve your life.  The Fool, well…he/she advocates surrender to the highest good, the freedom of being all of who you can be.  Jump into life fully.

 

QUESTIONS TO PONDER

 

What will you let go of to make way for something new?

What holds you to a way of being, living, acting, that doesn’t serve your life?

How does the thought, idea, feeling of transformation influence you?

Who’s rules have you been following, and do they work for you?

How can you create the life you deserve to have?

When will you let go?

Can you give form to your feelings?

What does leading an inspired life mean to you?

 

INVITATION TAROT/NUMEROLOGY DAILY … 11 …Hanged One

Standard

13 march 2012   >  12/21/3    HangedOne/Universe/Empress

 

One of the invitations in the Hanged One’s card is, as you notice the life you live and what whirls and twirls within and around your life, is to relax for awhile, look at life from all it’s many angles and facets;  begin to notice the world from a new perspective.  It’s the play within the new possibilities, the gift of ‘hangin’ out’ without really taking action on anything in particular till you feel moved to do so.

THe Universe tags in and speaks to that waits just at the portal of decision time when you step through and into a more expanded view of all that is.

The Empress nurtures the way, giving guidance and the invitation to creatively try many things before settling into your Heart’s Desire.

‘12’ lead to the ‘3’ in numerology and that invitation is about inclusivity and exclusivity.  A trinity of what happens when two get together and another thing is born.  Something, someone new is brought into the conversation, to be heard and noticed.  The process is an incredibly creative one when two give themselves to it.  So, within the Hanged One is the opportunity to ‘be’ and to engage with others or a quest of sorts, to notice what works or doesn’t.  Making no hurried choices till that ‘birthing’ feels right.

If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTIONS TO PONDER

 

Can you give yourself to playfulness?

What new perspective might you need to consider?

How do you feel about just letting go of your attachment to making a decision right now?

What one thing might you do to expand your view of the world?

Is there a class or creative project that is waiting for you to take action?

What does it feel like to wait and then maybe wait a little more and know that that is perfect?

What do you take soooo seriously that gets in the way of your joy?

How can you nurture yourself?  What does that mean anyway?

Can you create one day/evening a week for simply having fun?

What or who are you noticing that might inspire you to birth some creativity?

Breathe into the knowing that you have as much time as you need.

TAROT HAIKU

 

Take hidden away

See beyond what eyes can see

You are the forest

 

A day/year to express your passion, your lust for life.  A time to trust your intuition and pay attention to your instincts.  Feeling and noticing your inner urges to express yourself.  Finding ways to be appropriate in that exchange between what inspires you and what feels right.  

‘11’ finds it way to the ‘2’, the number of exchange, finding counsel within yourself or finding counsel in a trusted friend or therapist.  Sitting quietly and allowing yourself to feel and see beyond the veil between what is obvious and what lies hidden.

If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTIONS TO PONDER

 

How will you lift ‘the veil’ between what you know and what you think you know?

What counsel are you in need of?

How can your vulnerability be your strength?

What does it mean to experience the luster of life?

How are you accountable to yourself and others?

How do you give trust to your intuition?

What do your instincts tell you?

How do create clear communications?

What does a ‘partnership of the heart’ feel like for you?

What can two do better than one?

How does the creative force of two bring it all together?

 

INVITATION TAROT/NUMEROLOGY DAILY … 10… WHEEL OF FORTUNE

Standard

11 march  2012   > 10/19/1  >  Wheel of Fortune/Sun/Magician

 

TAROT HAIKU

Around and around

Life finds itself circling

In the up down center 

 

It doesn’t seem like it takes long to make it through number days does it?  Already back to the beginning.

Today… Is a Wheel of Fortunate day.  A day for the wheel of life to turn and turn again; Up, down, left, right.  What goes up comes down and back up.  It’s all about where you stand in your wheel of life.  Centered?  At the edges? Hanging on for dear life?  All these ways of being connected to your life will happen and happen again.  Where ever you are in this cycle/circle, your attitude will be what supports you in the traveling.  Are you a victim of your life or do you hold yourself accountable for what happens within and around you?  It’s about you today and if it’s your birthday it’s about you alllll year long.

‘10’ leads you to ‘1’.  The beginning.  Once the fool has jumped into life, the Magician gathers the tools of life… earth, fire, air, and water, to create a life worthy of living.

 

QUESTIONS

How do you make your life worthy of living?

What magic stirs around you that you wish to harness and utilize?

What brings you back to the top of the wheel?

What is the light that shines at the center of you feel like?

What edges in life need a little push?

How do you stay centered and grounded?

How do you shift your attitude from negative to positive?

Can you not lay blame on anyone or anything when the poo hits the fan?

Can you take responsibility for where you are right now?

Think of what is fortunate in your life and remind yourself of that daily.

What are you grateful for?

INVITATION TAROT/NUMEROLOGY DAILY … 9 … hermit

Standard

10 march  2012   >   9/18  >    Hermit/Moon

 

TAROT HAIKU

Quiet waits answers

All is hidden within you

Heart has much to say

 

A Hermit kinda day.  I don’t think of the Hermit as some recluse being hiding in a cave or remaining hidden from others for extensive periods of time.  Which isn’t to say Hermit ‘energy’ doesn’t need time to ponder and recluse; to gather energy in quietude and meditation so that there is more energy to have and more light to shine., more wisdom to gather and share.  There isn’t a time limit on the need for silence and gathering. And… once this time of quietude finds completion, Hermit energy is ready to give back and share what wisdom was held in the shadows of life and shine it out for others to see and feel.

‘9’, is the number for bringing-it-all-together: tying up lose ends, completing that project, that plan, that thought, so you can move on.  

This day or if it’s your birthday is a time to take some quiet time and really gather your light, your unfinished business, your need for closure, whatever has been lingering in the undone zone that pokes at you to finish up.  Maybe you’ve been plowing through life and are drained, depleted, no time for yourself and your creative desires and dreams.  This is day to give a little bit to tidying up what has been bugging you and you feel frustrated with.

With the Moon as your ally,  (it has been full the last day),  What fullness completes you?

If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTIONS TO PONDER

 

What wisdom have you gathered that you can honor and share?

What is your ‘light’ and how do you gather your Light and share it?

Can you take some time to just be calm and quiet with no doing?

What does it mean for you to ‘lighten up’?

Do you have project or two or three that you’d like to finish and what does that mean for you?

Can you take some down time?

What needs ‘pulling together’?

Can you honor your own needs and say no to something when you need time alone?

Who needs you to say ‘no, not now’?

Think of what the Hermit means to you and how do you feel about that expression within yourself? 

What inner wisdom is urging you to pay attention to it and listen? 

 

 

 

 

 

 

INVITATION TAROT/NUMEROLOGY DAILY .8. BALANCE

Standard

9  march  2012    >  8/17  >   Balance/adjustment/justice/The Star

 

TAROT HAIKU

 

On one toe standing

The twig dances in the wind

Prepare for landing

 

In the  number ‘8’, is the management of your resources, your time, your money, and the consideration of how you control and have power; how you lead yourself and others.  It is considered by some, the card of Divine Order.  It will be about how you order your life, how you order your spiritual life,  how you live in the material world. and possibly how you navigate in a spirited/spiritual way.  ‘8’ can be dictatorial, and overly controlling.  Be Mindful of how you use your power. This not about ‘power over’ rather about self empowerment and leading from the heart knowing the balance of power and adjusting accordingly.

Pretty easy to see how the ‘Balance/adjustment’ card smoothly fits into the ‘8’.

Balancing the use of self power, adjusting to the influx of other energy that pushes at your edges, realizing that life is not fair and equal for everyone and maybe not for you too.  There is importance in shifting attitude to adjust to endless situations that challenge, or flow, or whatever they do in your sphere of reference,or influence.

Your ‘ally’ The Star, reminds you that staying well and healthy, knowing your vulnerability can be an asset, and that you just might be standing between ‘heaven and earth’ acting as a vehicle of change, are all part of this sense of Divine Order to be aware of, and mind-full of. (that was a long sentence, whew) 

 

If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTION TO PONDER

 

What does Divine Order mean to you?

Can you be a vulnerable leader and what does that mean anyway?

In what ways can you adjust and find balance?

What is the difference for you between ‘power over’ and power shared and given?

How might you find justice in an unjust world?

What needs to get out of the way of your sense of balance?

What isn’t working in how you manage ‘thing’ and what can you do to adjust that?

Can you let go of being perfect, or doing it ‘perfect’ so that you actually get it done?

If you feel you are on a tightrope struggling to stay balanced and centered what might you do to change this?  What needs to happen?

How will you manage your resources?

What are feeling you are losing control over that maybe you need to re-calibrate what that control is?

What is your time management?

 

 

 

 

INVITATION TAROT/NUMEROLOGY DAILY… ‘7’… Charioteer

Standard

8 march 2012    >  7/16   >  Charioteer/Tower

 

TAROT HAIKU

 

Will your focus straight

Heart knows the matter of things

Trust what you believe

 

In the ‘7’, there is the investigator, the analyzer, the observer; he/she who misses nothing and gathers what they know into a deeper understanding of how things work and the reason for being.  They are on a need to know bases as they tend to be suspicious of others.  ‘7’ find inspiration in everything they take interest in. There is a tenaciousness about ‘7’s’, at times even a willful fervor when something is decided, it become nearly unshakeable in the truth of it.  ‘7’ desires to be nearly perfect at something/s.

The Charioteer, shares the story of gathering, investigating, observing something they feel passionate about. giving focus to a cause, or whatever it is that they feel called into life for their own special, spiritual  purpose.  They will take their time and become fluent in what holds their attention.  Shear will, will drive them on.

The Tower card gives a story about what happens when the foundation of something keeps reaching beyond itself.  Reaching till it has grown into something that no longer understands or connects to the very root of what brought it into being in the first place.  And without the foundation of life secure and solid in the knowing of what it stands on, the Tower can take a tumble, needing to remember where it began and felt safest.

If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTIONS TO PONDER

 

What needs to be gathered and investigated right now?

How will you give it your focus?

What incites your suspicions and how can you shift that into a positive outlook?

Is it time for you to take your project to the next level and what does that look like?

Is your foundation strong so that you can take some risks?

Have you gotten to far away from what ‘matters’ and might need to get back to basics?

What inspires you to give all of yourself to?

Does your will-fullness hold people to you or push then away and is that working for you?

Are you too attached to the outcome?

Is it time to shift your attention to something that will work better for you?

‘7’ of what?

 

INVITATION TAROT/NUMEROLOGY DAILY…6… The Lovers

Standard

7 march 2012    >  6/15    >   Lovers/Devil

 TAROT HAIKU

Heart in harmony

Charms the care-full lovers call

Give is to receive


Todays invitation is about relationships with others and yourself.  In the ‘6’ there is a great desire for harmony, there is the nurturer, the care giver, the humanitarian, the giving of the self so that others thrive, and the focus on hearth and home.  If your number is ‘6’ (add your date of birth together) you also have a charm about you that can be irresistible. When problems rise it most often because you have given yourself away and have nothing let for yourself.  It’s easy to see the Lovers in this number.  

The Lover’s, which is today’s card, are all of the above.  There can be a sacrifice that a LOver will give on behalf of the Loved ones.  And… if you give yourself all away in the hope of love finding you worthy, than you missed the point of it all. When there is nothing left for you to nurture and support within, there is not much if any to support anyone else.  It is easy at this point to become a victim of all that giving away and lay blame on other for not giving love in return.  Empty, hurt, and lonely, you can fester in that blame and whatever charms you had are gone.  The thing is….You are already worthy.  If you give without ‘expectation’ of any return, you give from the heart and lose nothing and blame no one.

In that vulnerability is when that trickster, the Devil seeks to ease on in to you mind.  YOur own bedevilment, not someone else’s.  When you begin to question who you are and what you do, the Devil will slip into your mind, and tickle at what challenges these questions. The Devil, that little poky voice within, pushes at your marginal resolve, into something that might not be the something you had in mind.  If you know what I mean?  The Devil will challenge your relationships; the ones you have with others and the the one you have with yourself. Thus, I am of the mind that the Devil performs a gift for you on your Path of life so that you can really have a sense of your integrity, your authenticity, and how you allow harmony and love in your life. 

 

As always…If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTION TO PONDER

 

How do you sustain harmony and balance in your life?

When do you notice that you have ‘giving yourself away’ and there isn’t enough for just you?

If the ‘Devil made you do it’, what would you have done otherwise?

What patterns rise for you when life is going well and balanced, and you get restless to stir the pot up by creating disharmony?  Why?
