Daily Tarot: 6 of Swords

It's all a matter of perspective with the 6 of swords. The world looks dark down at the bottom of the heap. Darkness, rain, gloom, sadness abound... except... edging into the picture... a rainbow! If you can see past the darkness and gloom, there is hope, light, peace to be found.

Six of Swords stands for recovery from difficult times. There is hope at last. Things will get better. Surround yourself with joyful friends who will help to lift your spirits.

Daily tarot: Eight of Cups

This is the second card from the reading I did for myself on New Years Eve.

Eight of cups is symbolic of moving on. The woman in the picture has her back to us, she's walking forward, toward the sea, toward adventure, toward the unknown, away from where she was. She has made her choice and is at peace with it. The dolphin is a messenger, greeting her at the beginning of her journey, possibly bringing her the confirmation she needs that it is time to go. The night sky is clear. The stars twinkle in the night sky to guide her on her way.

In the position of Present, after my Past was represented by pain and grief, this card is significant. It's time to move on. I already knew that, but here is a symbol to help propel me forward. Leaving the pain and grief of the past year behind, I'm journeying on toward the future with peace in my heart and a favorable wind in my sails.

Come back tomorrow to see the card that represents my year to come.
