Tarot Card for the Day, October 25, 2013, (Shadowscapes Tarot Deck)

Eight of Wands

This is such a wonderful card. The number eight in numerology refers to things in the material world that are coming into fruition or manifesting. Wands speak of things that are spiritual or that we are passionate about. It’s a nice blending of the elements because of course, it fits quite well with the idea represented with the saying “as above, so below”, meaning that as things are in the spirit realm, so they are in the physical realm.
Today the energy of this card is being used by Spirit to call us to look at what our dreams are, and then to make them known to the universe. In the story of this card, the woman is releasing her wishes into the universe and blowing the flower parts is giving them a vehicle on which to travel far. Today it is time to consider what our wishes are. It’s time to quit letting fear stop us from thinking that those wishes could be reality. It’s time to let the universe know about those wishes and send them out spiritually into the great and wonderful universe that we live in, so that they can manifest back to us fruitful.
How do we do this? Maybe we write our wishes down on paper so we can see them. Maybe we visualize ourselves making a wish as we hold a puffy dandelion, and then blowing that wish onto the dandelion fluff and watching them be carried away into the universe. However you do it, after you have sent your wishes out to the universe, then just sit back and let the universe do it’s work while you focus on other things. Trust.
Peace,
