Feb 5, 2021King of Pentacles: Prosperous PatriarchThe last of the pack. On this Friday, I draw the last of the Tarot cards and have encountered all the different stories and meanings. As I think about this journey I am surprised by how many cards have very similar meanings. …Abundance2 min readAbundance2 min read
Feb 4, 2021Queen of Pentacles: Nurturing MotherI picked one of prettiest cards in the deck today — the Queen in her garden, surrounded with beauty. I am particularly jealous of her rose vine, while I sit in my little box in the sky surrounded by melting snow and shades of grey. Today, feels a bit lighter…Nurturing2 min readNurturing2 min read
Feb 3, 2021Knight of Pentacles: Hard WorkI picked this card yesterday, but only finished my entry today. I was carried away in work, which is coincidental given the meaning behind this card. I was productive which was satisfying but not necessarily fulfilling, if that makes any sense. …Hard Work2 min readHard Work2 min read
Feb 1, 2021Page of Pentacles: Drive and DeterminationWe move to a new month on a Monday, and yet, nothing has really changed. January felt like the longest month ever, however I accomplished very little. We seem to be stuck in Groundhog Day, walking, working, eating, sleeping, rinse and repeat. …Determination2 min readDetermination2 min read
Jan 29, 2021Ten of Pentacles: Legacy and PrivilegeThe card I picked today depicts what looks like a happy family scene — the scene that the movie would probably close on. I don’t know how I feel about it. I am both envious and annoyed by these figures. …Legacy2 min readLegacy2 min read

Jan 27, 2021Eight of Pentacles: Mastering the CraftA sunny day after a fairly heavy snowfall. It’s odd that I felt happier yesterday than I do today, despite the fact that most of the time the sun lifts your mood. It’s mid-week and I am counting down the days to the weekend, though I don’t actually have any…Mastery2 min readMastery2 min read
Jan 26, 2021Seven of Pentacles: PerseveranceToday is a strange day. Yesterday was hard, for no clear reason — possibly from being unproductive, being stressed out or generally feeling unmotivated. But today is brighter, though none of those things have gone away or changed. It is snowing today so perhaps it’s the change in weather that…Perseverance2 min readPerseverance2 min read
Jan 25, 2021Six of Pentacles: Giving and ReceivingAn inspiring card to pick on a Monday morning, when you are so focused on setting up for a better work week but need to be reminded there are bigger things in life. One of the things that’s been bothering me, more and more lately, is the purpose of the…Giving2 min readGiving2 min read
Jan 22, 2021Five of Pentacles: Hardship and LossAnother dark card that suits this month of January so well. There isn’t more to say here than how much loss sucks. The pain associated with it is heavy, it feels like weight pushing down on you. You see it in this card in the body language of the figures…Loss2 min readLoss2 min read
