October 2023 - Father of Stones in the West

There are moments when it feels like the universe aligns in our favor, guiding us along our chosen path.  Today, I experienced one such moment, encountering the Father of Stones in the West care, also known as the Old Man.

This card symbolizes an outpouring of creative energy. As a writer, I resonate deeply with the image - a figure tirelessly toiling behind the scenes, leaving a legacy of beauty long after they've departed. It's a poignant reminder of the unseen effort that goes into crafting a piece of art, and it fortifies my resolve to persist in my own journey.

As fate would have it, during the recombination of my deck, two additional cards made their presence known - the Son of Wands in the East and the Three of Wands. This deviation from the norm felt significant, a whisper from the universe.

The Son of Wands, represented by Krishna, epitomizes a zest for life - a sentiment that resonates deeply with my current state. This year has been rife with personal challenges, but I sense a turning point, a newfound freedom emerging from the shadows.

The Three of Wands, also known as Virtue, heralds harmony and a resounding affirmation that I am on the right path. It gently reassures me that despite the occasional struggle to carve out time for writing amidst life's demands, I am indeed capable.

Taken together, these three cards paint a powerful message: This is my moment. While the fruits of our labor may not always be immediately visible, there exists an appreciation for the effort we invest. It's an encouragement to forge ahead, for our endeavors matter, even if they remain hidden behind the scenes.

May these musings resonate with you as you navigate your own creative journeys. Remember, your work matters, and your efforts do not go unnoticed
