An Uneasy Feeling


Perhaps it has to do with the stock market and the economic climate, or maybe it's plain old "writerly" doubt, but Miss Michele had an uneasy feeling that things were going too well lately!

The tarot is perfect for pinpointing the source of these intuitive flashes, so Miss Michele asked a targeted question for her daily throw.

"What forces could prevent me from being as successful as I want to be today?"

After multiple cards (all potentially relevant) fell out of the deck, Miss Michele decided she was just being sloppy, stopped, focused, and pulled a card.

The Seven of Wands.

This card indicates a battle of wills, pride in action, and competition from unexpected sources. I may realize I am not as good as I think I am (today) or I may simply become overwhelmed by all on my plate and feel like I'm not doing as well as other freelancers in my position.

Misdirected competition has been a theme in my life lately, and I wonder if that won't manifest in more than one area today?

The tarot advises me to be ready for the battle, muster the courage and the strength to persevere, focus and get it done! Financial rewards may not come immediately, but I am in an important growth stage right now.
