Moments of Awareness

The Wheel of Fortune alters our course, as important, unexpected information and conflicts of interest come to light around controversial matters. Unforeseen developments and new news require that we change our plans as our eyes are opened to an idea whose time has come. At the beginning of this new cycle in our lives it's a good idea to remember that what goes around comes around.

The Five of Swords brings unforeseen problems, struggles, and distress brought on by defeat. We're not interested in expending energy on superficial niceties, and we find ourselves frustrated with regard to work, love, and health. Our friends and any hopes or dreams we can muster will be our best bet for finding beauty and love in our worlds under this energy.

The Five of Cups brings delays and setbacks, exhaustion on every level, and depression as we're confronted with obstacles. We hope against hope the universe will bring something interesting to our realm but we're not in the mood for any extra demands. It's a day for reassessing our activities, discarding those that fail to serve and adding those that will bring future returns.

The Two of Swords asks that we make decisions and move forward regardless of fear, doubt, or confusion. We'll do well under this energy to align ourselves with supportive, responsive friends in anticipation of things to come. Our judgment isn't as clear as we'd like but an intuitive approach will allow for a balanced outcome.

The Hanged Man has us focused on our lives, values, and ways of thinking as we experience a reversal in our affairs. Our dreams appear to lose validity, and what we've been building seems obsolete. We're called upon to remember that feelings of hopelessness and meaninglessness pass with time as the changing of circumstances is inevitable.

The Queen of Pentacles brings us a community-oriented person with a knack for making everyone feel like a best friend. It's a day for refining and making known our hopes and wishes, and verifying our compassion for mankind through tangible results. Finance and profit figure largely in our ministry of service to the wider world.

The Three of Swords finds us feeling disappointment due to adversity and separation. Exterior influences cause strife in personal relationships and delays in business. We'll do well today to focus on renewed efforts in restructuring and rebuilding.
