Another week has passed and another weekend and opportunity to take a peek and the signposts of the tarot is upon us! This week’s reading is being done using the Legacy of the Divine tarot which you can find here on Amazon.com. It’s an amazing deck if you haven’t seen it yet and it’s one that I’ve been working with and enjoying for the last few months. Check it out if you are able!

The Knight of Swords
Something or someone has possibly shaken up the end of your week and possibly rattled your cage a bit. If you find yourself feeling like you need to let off steam this weekend it wont be any real wonder. The Knight of Swords could be you and not someone else, and if it is, it’s important to remember that you need to work to keep your thoughts and emotions in check. Like a raging tornado we can easily find ourselves spinning out of control if we don’t focus and use some direction in doing what we need to do. If your situation for the end of your week does seem to be one where you are dealing with some frustrations and issues, especially if they are brought on by another, take the time to calmly think and plan your words and actions. This weekend will give you some needed cooling off time and time to really plan to act rather than react to something someone else may have done or said to you. The key message here is to remember that it’s better to let cooler heads prevail so that thoughts and actions have meaning rather than to attack and lash out. Take your time this weekend to contemplate your next move.

Six of Cups
Falling somewhere in line with the issues of the day before, today you find yourself in a somewhat reflective and nostalgic mood, something that may seem to be in complete contrast to the evening prior. Take the time today to recall the more positive sides of the situation that you’re dealing with and see if you can feel that happier emotion you once had all over again and draw on that energy from the past to help you find your way now. If your situation that you’re dealing with has to do with a work related problem, think back on when things were running smoother and when you were feeling at the top of your game. If it’s a situation with a friend or family member, try and recall all the good times you’ve had with this person and think about the things that you love about them rather than the things that have been frustrating you so much. Know that you’ve had problems with whomever or whatever in the past and managed to get over them before. And it’s that love of what you do and who you are around that pulls you out from the darkness and into the light once again. Let today be a day to clear your head, refocus and reinvigorate your desires.

Ace of Wands
Today is the day to plan your actions to take tomorrow as the new week starts out. You have many possibilities and different ways to go with things, some positive and some not so positive. Ultimately it’s up to you to decide where to go and how to deal with your situation but know that you have the power to turn things around and make things the way you want them. By simply taking hold of the Wand and wielding the power within, you will be able to practically do away with all your problems with a wave of that wand. But, like in magick, before you can really make the wand work for you, you need to know how to make it work and how to harness the power within; the same is true here. If you want to change things knowing what you’re going to do, what you’re going to say, and how you’re going to handle things from this point on will be a powerful thing. Decide today what outcome you desire and plan your steps to get there. The power is yours if you use it wisely.
So it looks like this will be a weekend for planning future move and actions. Even if none of this pertains to anything specific for you right now, and there is no specific thing that you need to address that has been pressing, take the time this weekend to think on the things that you have wanted to do but may have fallen short on. Are there some things for the new year that you were hoping to kick start but never got going with? Is there a project that you have been wanting to work on but your thoughts have been a flurry of emotions and plans, like the tornado that accompanies the Knight of Swords in this deck? If that’s the case, use this weekend to start hammering out some thoughts and ideas for making actions and create a game plan that you can put into effect on Monday. Don’t let another day slip by where your true will isn’t honored and your goals and dreams elude you. This weekend the moon is in the sign of Aquarius and with it’s ruling planet of Uranus a desire for freedom and the unconventional may be in the air. Now is a good time to use that moon energy, especially the New Moon we have right now, to work from an intellectual standpoint, rather than the emotional, in order to make some change.
Have a great weekend!
