Tarot Card for the Day, October 28, 2013, (Shadowscapes Tarot Deck)

Ace of Wands Reversed

The aces bring up new beginnings in the upright position, and wands are fiery, passion, spirit and energy related. In the upright position this card would be talking to us about a new inspiration and possibilities of letting that grow in our lives.
Reversed, Sacred Spirit is using the energy in this card to point out that today we are feeling less than inspired. We are doing the same old same old all over again. (Seems kind of perfect for a Monday card actually.) The passion and energy for what is around us is starting to slide away from us today. That’s why it’s very important that we be consciously on the look-out for the inspiration that is around us. This is a day be very actively appraising the good that we are doing and appreciating it as if it was new to us again. To look at it with fresh eyes so we can keep our energy up as we go on. To also see with fresh eyes the good that is around us, in our environment and in the people we interact with. To let those things inspire us as well.
The really great thing about cards like this, is that having the heads up that this might be a rougher day to make it through, helps us to be prepared for the struggles so that the impact is minimized or eliminated for us. We get to come into the day with a plan of action to follow. How great is that?
Life is good.
Peace,
Amista
