Good morning!
A swift change is coming - and it is bringing with it an opportunity that if successful will launch you in a wholw new direction - one that you defended in the past when the idea was merely a dream.
The crow stood proudly on top of the cliff. It has an idea and left its position below with the other birds to gain a better view of the land in the distance. This ruffled the feathers of the crows below and took the independent crow's actions as an insult to their way of life. For generations, the crows stayed in their place - content with where they were with no need to look elsewhere.
In the past position is the Seven of Wands serving as an important piece of your foundation. Not only do you dare to dream differently than those around you-you also take action. Of course, this may have caused some arguments in the past or you may have felt a need to defend your position - nonetheless, you were able to stand tall and write your own story - even if it went against your family and friends.
The crow stands on a wand that effortlessly sails through the air. A free-spirit in search of a new adventure, this crow approaches life with an exuberance as new opportunities are embraced not feared.
At the heart of today's reading is the Page of Wands and with it is an enthusiastic energy that supports embarking on a new path and leaving the past behind. A new life is ready to emerge - one that will let your creativity shine. This will be a time of rebirth as you take charge of your future - in doing so you will spark a positive change.
Perhaps it was the act of breaking free from the life others wanted you to live that set up the opportunity for the Page of Wands to enter. Your confidence and determination will shine through and although there may be some who question your decision - you will feel no need to defend your position at this time because it is what it is - and it is your life - your choice.
If you have found yourself yearning for something new - the energy that is building right now is one that supports starting over as opportunities for you to change your life for the better will manifest. Your destiny is in your hands - the Page is not a passive fellow - no this is a time for action.
The crow on its way to success diligently works on perfecting yet another pentacle. The act of creating is its passion and works daily to improve through dedication to practice.
The Eight of Pentacles enters as a result of changing course with the Page of Wands. An incredible opportunity will soon present itself, however, it may leave you wondering if perhaps too much of a good thing is possible because in order to achieve your dream you are going to be tasked with taking that thing you love to do to whole new level.
The Eight of Pentacles may manifest in an opportunity to put together a yoga retreat that is far beyond what you have done in the past - however, in doing so you will gain a good deal of press and new business.
Maybe you are a glass artist and an architecture firm just put in a request for you to do all the lighting for a new hotel - if you take the job it will solidify your place as a leader within the glass community.
With the Eight of Pentacles in the future position, you may at times feel like this opportunity is a baptism through fire of sorts and you may question your choice to take on so much work - however, when you succeed you will come out on the other end very happy you put your nose to the grindstone and got the job done.
