“None of us knows what might happen even in the next minute, yet still we go forward. Because we trust. Because we have faith.”
~ Paulo Coelho
This card reminds me a lot of the Magician card in the traditional Rider-Waite Smith tarot deck. And I’ll tell you why. First of all, for me, the big message behind the Magician is that you already have all of the tools and magic you need inside of you in order to move forward, create your dreams, etc.
Here, for the message today, it’s showing an unclear path forward. Alongside is the 10 of Swords, inverted. You’ve just regained your strength and drive. You’re shaking those swords off of your back and rising to meet the sun over the purple mountains in the background (so much symbolism here). You know it’s time to move, but you’re unsure how or where or what. Looking ahead on this card, we see the ankh symbol for eternal life. This reminds you that there is no true end to your life, just a series of rebirths and reincarnations (spiritually and physically). To the right, we see the Eye of Horus, promising healing and protection on your journey. And to the left, there’s the Sun, waiting for you to get yourself up and brush your hands off.
The Temperance card calls for patience and calmness through this transition. One step at a time, just as long as you’re stepping. The details might be blurry right now, but the Universe is asking you to just trust. Using everything you have within; you have the power to create what you’re dreaming of. You are the Universe here on Earth. As above, so below.
Affirmation:
My heart and mind are in perfect alignment
My heart’s desire and my thoughts are one
I am a spiritual being in a physical body
The journey ahead is filled with light
The light of my soul illuminates my path
