The Promise of Something New

A new start always offers hope.

I hope your 2019 is off to a great start – but even if it’s not, don’t worry.

There are a lot of superstitions about New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, but the truth is, what happens in the beginning of the year does not impact or predict how the year may turn out for you.

What is the best creator and predictor of your success this you? You are!

Inherent in every new beginning, be it a new year, a new day, a new job or a new attitude, is a potential for change, and a promise of possibility.

That energy of newness is a magical thing. As we get older it sometimes becomes harder to hope for, or anticipate, great new things. Yet, the more excitement we can muster, and the more optimism we generate, the more likely we are to create something wonderful.

Let’s greet the opportunities of 2019 with hope, with wonder, and with optimism.

New Beginnings in Tarot

It’s interesting to note that many tarot cards can indicate the beginning of something new. Here are my favorite heralds of new energy in tarot.

The Fool

The Fool can discuss a new adventure, or a new journey.

The Magician

The Magician can talk about initiation; studying something new or taking a step toward a specific goal.

Death

Death is a card of transformation. In this card we may see a change that creates a new opportunity.

The Aces

All four Aces can indicate a new beginning. The sort of new beginning is indicated by the element of the suit.

The Pages

Each Page carries a youthful energy full of promise, and could discuss a new lesson, or a new opportunity to learn. As with the Ace, the type of lesson is denoted by the suit.

The next time you see any of these cards in your reading, know that something new may be coming your way.

If you want to manifest something new in your life, use these cards in meditation and ceremony to help manifest that opportunity.

The Week in Review

This past week I shared a blogpost on my 78 Magickal Tools Blog. The post offers a special tarot spread to predict your year based on the Wheel of the Year. What makes this spread different than other New Year spreads is it also offers an opportunity for you to manifest what you want in 2019.

From Around the Web

Because this is the first full week of 2019, here are some other tarot spreads and techniques for the New Year for you to try.

From the Wild Unknown Tarot, here is a Year Ahead Spread based on the months.

Here is a tarot spread based on the astrological houses from Jess Carlson.

Did you know that we each have a special tarot card of the year? From. Jessi Huntenburg, here’s how to find yours.
