Every Monday, I draw three cards to focus on for the week coming up.

I apologize for the lack of posting last week! Unfortunately, I’m unlikely to post much this week, as my focus will be on finishing my last week of work at this assignment and moving. Signed a lease yesterday! The new place is not as big as I’d hoped, but the kitchen makes up for it (and dishwasher and free laundry).

That said, here’s our cards for the week!

Eight of Imps

Taking quick action, coming to a conclusion, receiving news

The little guys depicted here are on defense: wands ready, knowing there’s a fight coming, no one quite taking sides to work together.

XIX The Sun

Becoming enlightened, experiencing greatness, feeling vitality, having assurance

I sure hope this is heralding more sunlight for us. That would be pretty great! The Sun is a pretty personal card for me, so it’s hard to not identify with it strongly. In my case, it reminds me to let the sunshine fill me with energy so that I can be there to pour cheer into others’ hearts.

Queen of Imps

Attractive. Wholehearted. Energetic. Cheerful. Self-assured.

This is my wonderful friend Becky, queen of fire and creative ideas. It fits that she’s having a few revelations the last couple of days, and that the Imps, creatures of fire, also use sunlight as their energy source. Pretend you’re a plant for a while and soak in a few rays to ground, center, and ultimately find what it takes to be true to YOU.

Conclusion

More than a little of this might be colored by a re-read of my favorite witching series (which I should write about!). We have fire and creativity forces working this week to push us out of our shells. Take a deep breath to soak in that glorious sun energy and then go create something beautiful. Don’t get caught up in the details of the day-to-day, either: that way lies madness. The most important thing to come out of this is to be true to you.
