Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: Tarot of a Moon Garden, Karen Marie Sweikhardt, instructions by Laura E. Clarson, published by U.S. Games Systems, Inc.

Card: Ace of Pentacles

This week, there is likely to be a continued focus on finances, and wealth—both material and spiritual. There is the potential for new opportunities in increasing financial sources, particularly when it comes to picking up side jobs or projects that are liable to provide a good return for the effort expended. Spiritually, openings for expanding not only how spiritual practices are conducted but also exploring new ways to magically apply what is being learned.

Conversely, all that glitters is not gold. And even if it is actually gold, it does not guarantee that obtaining it will result in happiness. There is also the likelihood of indecision resulting in missed opportunities, but deals that seem to be too good to be true should probably be avoided. Due diligence should be performed before signing on to any new deals, no matter how great they might seem at first.
