Every week we’re faced with all kinds of challenges and opportunities. This week we are faced with the Seven of Swords as an insight into our challenges and The Hanged Man as an opportunity to look out for.
The Seven of Swords as a Challenge
The challenge to look out for this week revolves around guilt, regret, and choosing to do the right thing.
You may feel like there is an amazing opportunity coming your way but you should let it pass because there is too much deception involved. You would be ashamed of yourself if you moved forward towards what looks like great treasures as a result. Feelings of guilt may arise from previous deceptions you have gotten away with. Take a moment to meditate on what led you to take such deceptive actions and think about how you could have done things differently. Use this as an opportunity to teach others about your past mistakes.
The Hanged Man as an Opportunity
The opportunities to look for this week include new perspectives, waiting, release.
This week we are being asked to embody patience. Don’t try to be in control of your present situation; let go to receive the greatest benefit. Make peace with all the uncertainty. Observe the environment around you from a new perspective. Make time to get in deep contact with your true spiritual aspects. The wonder of The Hanged Man is that if you don’t make time for this pause the Universe will do it for you. Let that be the catalyst for the change you need in your life.
Make this Week Yours!
Eckhart Tolle said: “Some people awaken spiritually without ever coming into contact with any meditation technique or any spiritual teaching. They may awaken simply because they can’t stand the suffering anymore.”
Take this week to analyze your mistakes. Learn from them but don’t let anyone make you feel shame for your past. Change the way you look at things, gain new perspectives, and keep moving forward.
The deck I’m using is The Pagan Otherworlds Tarot by UUSI. You can check them out here.
