The Element of Fire
In metaphysics, and in esoteric systems such as tarot and astrology, we see the element of Fire as the element of passion, creativity, spirituality and motivation. The Fire energy is what burns within us.
We can connect with fire in meditation, or by spending time with a campfire or a candle.
When we nurture the energy of Fire in our lives, we allow ourselves to live more passionately; to be more engaged in life. We are more able to feel our connection to Spirit, and to access our own creative energy.
Fire is the chi life force, the spark of divinity within us, our inspiration, and our motivation.
How do you nurture fire in your life?

The Element of Fire in Tarot: Inspiration!
In tarot, the suit of Wands is related to the element of Fire. In these cards we see action, motivation, creativity and defense of the things about which we are passionate.
The Major Arcana cards associated with Fire are the Emperor, Strength, the Wheel of Fortune, Temperance, the Tower, the Sun and Judgement.
We can use these tarot images to ignite our inspiration and fuel our creativity.
Look through the Fire tarot cards and think about the images in terms of your own creative struggles and triumphs. What stories do you see in these cards? How do these images inspire you?
From just these Fire cards, pull one card at random to answer this question.
“How can I best nurture inspiration in my life?”

The Week in Review
This week, on my Dark Forest blog, I posted the first of a three-week series, about marketing mistakes made by healers. If you are a tarot reader, massage therapist or have another sort of healing practice, this series is for you!
On my personal blog, Tarot Trends, I wrote about suffering. So many times, when we are suffering, we feel that we have no purpose, or that our life has no purpose. It’s clear to me, though, that there is always a purpose. Read “The Purpose of Suffering” and find out what it is!
On my Tarot Topics Community Blog I shared some information for tarot students about situational spreads.
From Around the Web
From Lua Tarot, a post about using your tarot cards to help you in your tarot business. That is a concept I developed in my 2010 book “Fortune Stellar.” I am glad to see it working for other tarotists.
From Psychology Today, here is a great post about being in the present.
From Psychic Revelation, here is a wealth of tarot spreads to try.

Learning Tarot: Ten of Cups
 The Ten of Cups is often called “The Happy Family.” Typically, this card predicts and describes a happy marriage, a happy home, children, love and romance. Some people call this the “They all lived happily ever after” card.
Key words for the Ten of Cups are happiness, romance, love and family.
The Ten of Cups can describe a happy relationship, or predict a happy relationship in the future. The Ten of Cups could suggest that a couple will soon announce an engagement, have a child or buy a home. The Ten of Cups could describe the desire for a happy outcome.
The Ten of Cups is the final card in the numbered pips of the suit of Cups. With this card we complete a journey through the element of Water, where we learn about our feelings, our relationships and our emotions.
Next week we will begin our exploration of the Cups Court, with the Page of Cups.
