Daily Tarot Reading for Thursday February 26th 2009
When I do a reading for myself, the 'question' I usually pose to the mind is in simply asking for advice and I always just read the book for that card meaning to find the advice. Today I asked for advice.
I was hoping to draw the Queen or king if Swords for help on how to get my house more organized.

Nope.
Card Drawn: Ten of Wands
THE READING:
This is the card of the workaholic ---and of the individual on a mission. You've assumed so much responsibility you feel burdened. You probably don't want to delegate because you believe the old saw, "if you want something done right, do it yourself." You may resent the heavy load, but you enjoy playing the martyr and missionary.
**Comment: (Okay yes, I admit it, I have taken on a lot of responsibility and I enjoy playing the martyr and missionary.

) Yesterday I spent the entire day running errands, helping my Aunt, mom, dad, and another guy I've added to my list and I was completely tuckered out and tired of running around town. To add to that it was my birthday.)
WORK READING:
It's time to head out into the world and dispense your knowledge. You can certainly handle what you've taken on. But if it proves to be too much because of other commitments in your life, don't hesitate to release some of your responsibilities. Many of the burdens you carry are self-imposed. Make time to relax and enjoy life. You'll return to the fray refreshed and renewed.
**Comment: I like that advice.
FINANCES: It's time to reevaluate. Your debt obligations oppress you. And yet you have the knowledge you need to get where you want to be; you simply haven't tapped it yet.
**Comment: This is certainly true. I was just thinking yesterday how I want to pay down my credit cards more so I would not be paying so much interest, and that I needed to send out some statements to my computer clients and get paid for my work. (I hate that kind of work but somebody has to do it. According to my calculations, I should fire myself.) LOL
HEALTH: The therapies you try don't seem to work. You're tired of being overweight or stressed out or riddled with minor physical complaints. You benefit from time spent alone, from yoga, meditation, anything that forces you to concentrate on your breathing. Power walking my be the answer.
**Comment: Damn! That sure is true. I think I did draw just the right card for this moment in time. I guess my time out for myself should be a power walk or yoga. ... and I was just thinking about that when I woke up this morning.
SPIRITUALITY: You feel compelled to finish an artistic endeavor that is also linked deeply to who you are -- and who you're becoming. It creates a burden on your family and loved ones. Be honest about what you need; your loved ones will surprise you with their compassion and will give you the space you need.
**Comment: Yes this is also very true. I have been sneaking away from my duties to work obsessively on some new Tarot designs for my on-line tarot reading web site. I have almost finished two completely different major arcana sets. I have a the minor arcana to finish. I will be selling files that will allow people to print them on their computers to laminate and use. I'm very excited about this project and I sometimes feel guilty because I neglect some of my other duties.
EMPOWERMENT: You refuse to let your real or imagined responsibilities overshadow the joy of living.
**Comment: This is true. I really do enjoy my life.
This was probably the best card out of 80 cards to draw for my current moment energy.
The Tarot never ceases to amaze me, even though I still have that little skeptic inside that says ... oh pooh! What a bunch of hooey.
Sometimes it does not seem to say anything to me, but that is always when I don't really have a question. When I have a question, I always get an answer.
Ask and it is Given.
Have a good day.
