Today's Card: The Empress (from the Tarot of a Moon Garden deck)
In this card the Empress is represented with butterfly wings. She
sits atop a cornucopia overflowing with all of nature's goodness from
all the seasons. In her hand she holds her staff and gazes upon the
crystal ball on top of it.
The Empress card represents how our personal power comes from
learning to shift our perspective. Learn to focus on abundance and
opportunity rather than on limit and lack. View the past struggles
in life as what allowed you to grow wings, rather that what will
always hold you back.
The butterfly wings speak of metamorphosis. In order for a butterfly
to be born the caterpillar must transform. The process is can be
scary, and we are called upon to move from the familiar to the new
and unknown. It is the only way we can stretch and grow and hope to
reach our fullest potential.
The Empress speaks of creativity as well and traditionally is symbolic
of maternal energy, whether it be actual pregnancy/child rearing or
merely being "pregnant" with good creative ideas and ingenuity. This
is a good time to look for creative solutions to challenges, to use
your energy to create something new, to benefit others, etc.
Spend time today focusing on gratitude and looking for new
opportunities. Celebrate simple abundance and you will find your
life transforms right before your eyes.
