Today I am using my Fey Tarot, which although it is pretty new to me is already a lot of fun. I don’t generally go for the cartoony cards, so this is a nice diversion for me and hopefully for you as well! Today’s draw was the eight of Chalices, The Chariot, and the two of Pentacles. Click on the cards for a full sized scan.
The eight of Chalices in this deck seems to really specifically point to walking away from something that you may once have been attached to, but which you realize is not really for you. It isn’t about giving up or escaping, but about making the right and reasonable decision to step back. The most recent decision that I have made to that affect has been to try to do more with less. For example, yesterday I was mourning the fact that yet another pretty pair of socks had worn through the toes because they are so thin. Socks are either pretty but short lived or sturdy but plain, it seems. I wanted a new set, but didn’t really need them, especially since they don’t last long. That’s when I realized that I can crochet or knit my own colorful socks from now on. They will probably be more sturdy, and less expensive, too. Plus they will have actual meaning for me.
The Chariot reminds me that this is not just a “minors” decision but a grand one that will be a constant journey for me. I will never be done walking this path for as long as I choose to stick to it. It is a good reminder to have. The fey on the two of Pentacles are reminding me that it is possible to be happy with what is in front of you. I’ve already turned myself away from several small purchases by keeping this kind of thinking in mind.
