As I continue to explore my spiritual journey through art and my blog, I often seek guidance from my tarot cards to ensure I’m aligned with my true path. Recently, I asked my guide to provide insight into whether I’m on the right track with my creative pursuits and what my next step should be. The cards I drew were The Moon and the Two of Wands—two powerful symbols that have given me much to reflect on as I move forward.
The Moon: Embracing Intuition and the Subconscious
Drawing The Moon card felt like a strong affirmation that I’m where I need to be, especially as my work is so deeply connected to the themes of intuition, dreams, and the subconscious. The Moon is a card that resonates with mystery, inner reflection, and the unseen forces that shape our reality. It’s a reminder that not everything is as it appears on the surface and that the true answers often lie within, waiting to be uncovered through introspection and creativity.
In my own life, The Moon has always played a significant role, particularly in my artistic process. I’m often drawn to paint during the full moons, when the lunar energy seems to heighten my connection to Yesod—the Kabbalistic realm of the subconscious. This card encourages me to continue trusting that inner pull, to delve even deeper into the dreamlike realms where my creativity flows. It’s a reminder that my art and my blog are not just creative outlets; they’re vehicles for exploring and expressing the profound mysteries of the subconscious.
However, The Moon also carries a subtle caution. It asks me to be mindful of illusions or fears that might arise, to differentiate between what is real and what is simply a reflection of my inner world. This is particularly relevant when creating content or making decisions about the direction of my blog. While it’s essential to trust my intuition, I must also ensure that my vision is clear and not clouded by doubts or uncertainties.
The Two of Wands: Planning the Future with Vision
The Two of Wands, which appeared alongside The Moon, adds a layer of practicality and forward-thinking to the reading. This card represents the power of planning, decision-making, and the moment of potential that comes from standing at a crossroads. It’s about taking the spark of inspiration and turning it into a concrete plan for the future.
In the context of my blog and art, the Two of Wands is a call to action. It’s a reminder that while intuition and creativity are my guiding lights, they need to be paired with strategic thinking and deliberate planning. This card suggests that I’m in a position of strength, holding the world—or in this case, my creative vision—in my hands. The next step is to look beyond my current horizon and consider how I can expand my work, reach new audiences, and make a more significant impact.
The Two of Wands encourages me to be bold in my decisions, to step out of my comfort zone, and to take calculated risks that will help me grow. Whether it’s exploring new themes in my art, expanding the topics I cover on my blog, or even considering collaborative projects, this card invites me to think big and plan for the future with confidence.
Balancing Intuition and Action
Together, The Moon and the Two of Wands offer a beautiful balance between intuition and action. The Moon reassures me that I’m on the right path, that my focus on art and writing is aligned with my spiritual purpose. It tells me to trust the deep well of intuition that guides my creative process. At the same time, the Two of Wands nudges me to pair that intuition with thoughtful planning, to look ahead and make decisions that will help me bring my vision to life in a tangible way.
This combination of cards feels like a powerful affirmation that I’m not only on the right track but that there’s even more potential ahead if I’m willing to plan and take action. It’s a reminder that the journey I’m on is as much about inner exploration as it is about bringing those insights into the world in a meaningful way.
Moving Forward with Confidence
As I reflect on the guidance from The Moon and the Two of Wands, I feel a renewed sense of purpose and direction. My art and my blog are not just passions; they’re integral parts of my spiritual journey, tools for exploring the depths of the subconscious and sharing that journey with others. The cards have given me the reassurance I needed to trust in this path while also encouraging me to take deliberate steps toward expanding my work and reaching a broader audience.
The next phase of my journey will involve not only continuing to delve into the mysteries of the subconscious but also planning how to share those insights in new and impactful ways. Whether that means experimenting with new artistic techniques, exploring different themes on my blog, or reaching out to collaborate with others, I’m excited to see where this path leads.
The Moon and the Two of Wands remind me that I have both the inner wisdom and the strategic vision to navigate this journey. With these cards as my guide, I’m ready to embrace the next steps with confidence, knowing that I’m supported by both the spiritual and practical aspects of my path.
For as long as I can remember, I always wanted to be a Grandma. I was fortunate to have two wonderful grandmothers while I was growing up and I have many happy memories of each of them. Today, I live in a “Grandmother’s House” where my husband and I enjoy lots of time with our family. In addition to my role as Grandma to nine grandchildren, I am a daughter, a wife, a mother of three grown children, a sister, an aunt, a friend, a writer, an artist … and a witch.
