Let it Shine!
When I was young, we used to sing a song in Sunday School. “This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.” Years later, the lyrics from my favorite songs on the radio sent me a similar message.
It’s important to find your inner light and let it shine. That might mean developing your talents, setting goals, promoting your business or simply living the life that is right for you.
Don’t let doubt, uncertainty or difficult people cause you to hide your gifts.
This week, make a commitment to let your inner light shine!
Shiny Tarot Cards!
We find the message of shining your light in many tarot cards. Often a tarot reading helps us discover and develop our talents and passions; those things that make us shine.
Part of learning to shine is developing confidence, and a sense of comfort in ones’ own identity. Tarot reading can help with that, too.
Here are just a few of the tarot cards that encourage you to let your light shine!
The Sun – Be as bright as you can be, without fear.
The Hermit – Find the light of wisdom within yourself, and then let it shine for others.
The Three of Pentacles – Do your work with skill and mastery, and you will receive recognition and acknowledgement.
The Six of Wands – know that you can and will be victorious!
The Week in Review
This week, I shared a post on my 78 Magickal Tools blog on PaganSquare, about ways to add a little speed to your tarot magick, or to your life. See how the Knight of Swords and the Eight of Wands can speed things up for you!
On my personal blog, I wrote about my first library summer program tarot event. Read “Making Tarot Welcome”.

Card 6: Clouds
Card 6, Clouds, refers to confusion, uncertainty, bad weather, and sadness. While is this considered a negative card, we recognize that clouds pass quickly. Often clarity will replace confusion as quickly as the wind blows!
When the Clouds card appears, look to surrounding cards and recognize there may be an element of uncertainty or instability in the areas of life those cards depict.
The Clouds is associated with the King of Clubs. As such, this card can indicate the presence of a gentleman who may be dark-haired, protective and intelligent.
Next week we will explore Card 7, Snake.

Your One-Card Weekly Reading
Your One-Card reading this week is the Hanged Man.
You may find that you are in a time of waiting, or that you can’t take a particular action until the time is right.
The Hanged Man reminds you that, even if you are impatient, or uncomfortable with your surroundings, everything is exactly as it needs to be.
During this time of waiting and discomfort, you have the opportunity to find enlightenment because of your suffering, rather than in spite of your suffering. Use this time to your advantage!
This time of waiting will naturally end before too long. Since there is nothing you can do to change the situation, let go of your desire to control it, and take advantage of the opportunity for new perspective and enlightenment.
