A friend of mine who used to manage a hotel in Ohio once told me of a story of a person who came in one night looking for a hotel room. As an intuitive, she knew that the person was on the verge of an emotional breakdown and any wrong move could have caused him turn violent in the lobby. Because she did not have a room available, she was kind and accommodating to him while she tried to find a room at another location. She say that by the time she was done interacting with him, she could sense a change in his energy, and that her kindness towards him providing emotional break through for him.

Tarot Decoding The Hermit This year, as I do my own tarot readings, I’ve been pulling the Hermit card quite a bit. It’s a picture of a man in cloak walking by himself. He represents the divine solitude needed for spiritual enlightenment. 2020 has forced many into a isolation by virtue of losing jobs and having to social distance to prevent the spread of Covid 19. And where the spirit workers tend to be okay alone, many people struggle mentally with isolation. But to me, the struggle with isolation is the very need for isolation. I think it’s important to be able to be with yourself and sit with your own presence and mind. When we are unable to do that, we miss the lessons inside of us. We forego the development of our intuition and we never do the work to clear up our own subconscious blocks. Being alone allows us to examine what our deepest beliefs are. It allows us to decode the symbols that are swirling around us attempting to present patterns that make up our lives. Being alone allows us to learn to hear from and experience the spirit world, and to receive the messages from our ancestors and spirit guides. Being alone also helps us shape our standards and define our deepest desires. The hermit card on the dark attribute could represent extreme loneliness and the negative attributes of being isolated from necessary human interaction. We do need others, connection, love, and communication to live a healthy personal and social life. There should be a healthy balance between independence and vulnerability. Both strengthen us and awaken us. When the hermit comes up in your reading, think about your own spiritual journey. Is it requiring you to take some time for yourself to go within yourself? Are you overwhelmed with life in general and need to take a break, or just develop a better work life balance? The theme of 2020 has leaned us towards healthy isolation. Maybe it’s time for you to make the most of social distance.

The Myth of The horse holds symbolic meaning to ancient mythology and modern cinema. To Celtic mytholgy, the fairy horse represented a ride from the mundane world through the subconscious to the spirit world. It’s light attribute is access to spiritual information, to communication with spirit guides or ancestors, and to understanding the symbolism of dreams. However, it’s dark attribute, according to The Guide to the Fairy Ring Tarot system, is the Kelpie. Mythologically, the Kelpie kidnaps the unwitting and the lost, carrying them underwater never to be seen again. This represents following negative subconscous beliefs and fears into an abyss of depression, anxiety and mental dysfunction. The good news is that the fairy horse is always available to take us mentally to our higher spiritual, mental faculties, helping us to resolve and clarify the questions in our subconscious and our dreams. As I stared pondering the fairy horse, I examined the symbology inside of the Disney Classic, Sleeping Beauty. When Prince Phillip, the representative archetype of the young, valiant student of pure love and leadership discovered that Princess Aurora had been placed under a deep sleep by Maleficent, he conquered his “dark night of the soul”. His horse took him though the woods at top speed to Maleficent’s castle, which symbolized the depths of his inner fears. His horse led him from his current state through his subconscious and forced him to challenge danger and risk of death that haunted him, all to save his deepest desire, true love. In meditation, you can use the fairy horse by visualizing yourself being carried by him through a wooded path or through a cave to make sense of your subconscous symbology. Examine the images through your mind as you ride him or as he stops at a scene before you. Pay attention to the scenes around you and the symbols they might include. Does it bring up memories from the past or beliefs that don’t really serve you? Let your imagination be your guide. Your imagination isn’t just some thoughts you are making up. Your imagination consists of the symbolic images inside of your subconscious landscape. It tells you the story of your soul. Let your fairy horse help guide you through the forest.

ITS TIME TO Own Your Life Let me ask you a question. What are the various ways for you to earn $500 residually per month. You could amass hundreds of thousands of dollars and put it in the bank and live off the interest for a few years. You could invest in a real estate property and make the rents so high that after paying the mortgage you are left with $500 additional dollars each month. You could write a song and license it to a tv show or a major ad campaign that plays for about a year. But trust, these ways will either cost you a lot of time, effort, and money or will only pay you for a temporary period of time. An easier way is to consider a business that pays you to help others succeed.
