Two of Wands (Upright) – Rediscovering Dreams: Embracing Passion and Ambition on the Journey of Self-Discovery

The Reading

What do you dream of becoming when you grow up? As for me, I’m still on that journey of self-discovery. It’s funny how our enthusiasm as seven-year-olds for various professions can change over the years. Yet, I began to mute my passions and aspirations somewhere along the way. Particularly, I believe, it was out of fear of being ridiculed for failure after being too vocal about my dreams. If you had told me just three years ago that I’d be reading Tarot, not only for myself but for real people, I would have probably laughed, added a sarcastic comment, and dismissed the idea entirely. Yet, deep inside, I would have been awed and endlessly curious.

But you know what? I quietly started reading Tarot, first for close family and friends and then for the public. Feeling like an impostor is natural when you’re just starting out. However, the key is that I began. The upright Two of Wands encourages us to rediscover our enthusiasm, empower ourselves to pursue long-term goals and seize opportunities. Add a dash of ambition, and the possibilities become boundless.

With determination and the proper perspective, we can all embark on our unique journeys of self-discovery and growth.

With love and awe, Maggie

Daily Reading for Sunday, December 17, 2023

Card: 8 of Wands (Reversed)

Moon: 27% Waxing Crescent

Astrological Sun Sign: Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) “The Archer”

Crystals: Clear Quartz (Clarity and Focus) and Amethyst (Stress Relief and Intuition)

Essential Oils: Lavender and Clary Sage (Soothes Frustration and Anxiety)

Today’s Number: 8 (Balance, Abundance, and Power)

Daily Mantra: “I embrace patience and trust in the timing of my journey.”

In this fast-paced world, where everything seems to happen at the blink of an eye, the concept of waiting can indeed feel like an eternity. Yet, there’s profound wisdom and unexpected beauty in the art of patience, as eloquently captured by Amos Bronson Alcott: “Success is sweet and sweeter if long delayed and gotten through many struggles and defeats.”

As you encounter the 8 of Wands in its reversed form, it’s as if the universe is gently whispering to you, encouraging you to embrace this period of seeming stagnation, not as a setback, but as a valuable lesson in patience and trust. This card isn’t just about delays and frustration; it’s about preparing you for the sweetness of success that becomes all the more precious because of the wait and the challenges you’ve overcome to achieve it.

So, dear one, lean into this lesson. Allow yourself to find peace and understanding in the knowledge that what’s meant for you is making its way, albeit slowly. The reward at the end of this journey is waiting, and it promises to be even more rewarding because of this period of waiting and growth.

Sending you love and light on your path,
-Maggie

In the whirlwind of the holiday season’s frenetic energy, it’s all too easy to feel like a forgotten ember amidst the bustling festivities. Amidst the flurry of short days and long nights, the rush of gift shopping and wrapping, the kitchen filled with the aroma of baking, and the planning of grand feasts, you might find yourself lost in the merry chaos. But, my dear, I want you to know that you’re doing exceptionally well. The 6 of Wands is a gentle reminder that you’re perfect just as you are.

I challenge you, my friend, to embrace the gift of humility and validate not just the presents you wrap but the love you carry within. Take a moment to acknowledge all that you do and all that you are. In this season of twilight, when the world is adorned with the glow of holiday lights, remember that your inner light shines brightly, too. Sending you light and love during this magical time. – Maggie

Card: Knight of Wands (Reversed)

Moon: 65% Waning Gibbous

Crystals: Black Tourmaline, Red Jasper, Tiger’s Eye

Essential Oil: Vetiver

Today’s Number: 4 (Stability, Structure, and Strong Foundation)

Clearly, the Knight of Wands had more to say, regardless of my dutiful shuffling of the Cards. The Knight of Wands Reversed tells us to take seriously the warnings of the past few days. This card suggests there is a lack of purpose, impatience, and hasty decisions leading to problems or setbacks.

As you go through your day, remember not to act too quickly without thinking things through. Make sure to plan and consider your decisions. Instant gratification can lead to long-term regrets.

Be safe and wise, dear ones. -Maggie

Use Black Tourmaline for its grounding properties.

Red Jasper is a stone of endurance, nurturing, and steadiness.

Tiger’s Eye provides clarity and focus.

Card: 4 of Wands (Reversed)

Moon Cycle: 95% Waning Gibbous @ 0753 CST

The theme of transition continues with the reversed 4 of Wands and the Waning Gibbous. As you go through the day, be mindful of unease or dissatisfaction in social settings or with family. Take time to reflect on your relationships and environment. Don’t be surprised if celebrations are canceled, a dispute erupts with a group, or you feel unappreciated or unwelcomed in a social setting. In Numerology, the number four represents stability, structure, and order and therefore, you are encouraged to turn inward to find this reprieve. As we get closer to the Winter Solstice and the nights get longer, your light will come from within. This, too, shall pass.

Peace be on to you, dear one. -Maggie
