Today's Tarot - Daily Meditation Reading - Strength

Integrity doesn't just let you live well with others, it lets you live well with yourself.

Today's Tarot - Strength

A little self-discipline and a few good habits are the stuff that makes your auto-pilot work right on the days when you need it.

Profound Strength

The strength card is about strength of character and integrity, not about brute strenth or power over others. Like Craig Ferguson sung about "Dr. Who"...it is about "intellect and romance over brute force and cynicism"


I was watching the President's speech to AIPAC yesterday (Sunday) and the summary contained my new favorite quote...one that resonates quite a bit with the Strength card, and with integrity in general. It is a beautifully poetic expression of a deep and well-known truth. This is the kind of deep intellectual and emotional authenticity to which I aspire, and hope we all as a country and culture can value.


"... if you want to know where my heart lies, look no further than what I have done..."   


~Barak Obama

Today's Tarot - Strength

When words hurt, Strength is silent. 

When truth must be spoken, Strength roars.

Today's Tarot - Strength

Every path has had its crossroads. Compassion and wisdom isn't the easy choice, but it's the right one. Fear and anger only leads to more fear and anger.

Daily Meditation - Strength (major arcana card)

Strength from the major arcana is associated with strength of character, integrity, compassion, leadership....I've been on a sci fi binge lately: think Firefly's Captain Mal and Shepherd Book all rolled into one and you get the idea.

Being strong, having integrity, doing the right thing doesn't mean struggling or wrestling with your conscience all the time. Sometimes strength and integrity is easy. Being in the flow of things, being "in the zone" is probably a good indication that you ARE doing the right thing.

A Bitter Pill

Sometimes the answer is just plain no.

Everyone can listen to their intuition...we all have it.

Not everyone is cut out for working with it publicly. One of the hardest parts of doing readings for other people is ... not giving "bad news"...but not being able to give any news at all.

Psychics aren't like battery packs...it isn't throw a switch and psychic ON!

Sometimes there is a personality mis-match. Or sometimes the sitter is so fixed on a certain idea they can't hear what you are saying...whatever the case, sometimes there is a wrench in the works, a jam in the pipeline.

When that happens...and if you do this professionally, it at some time will...then the honest thing to do is to buck up and say so. If I'm just not getting any message...so be it. If someone just won't listen to my policy about predictions vs advice or choice...see ya. I won't just make something up and take their money. Which sucks, because I could use the income as much as the next person.

Like doctors and mechanics, psychics have our strengths and specialties. Some mechanics just have a knack for electrical systems. Some doctors specialize in hearts, others toes. You don't ask a podiatrist to treat you high blood pressure long term or a cardiologist to operate on your bunion. Would you get mad at a doctor if he sent you to someone else because your illness was outside their specialty. A good psychic will do the same thing...if we aren't getting any message or intuition about you, then we will at least try to put you in touch with resources that might be better able to help. Or at least and ETHICAL psychic will.

An unethical psychic would make something up and charge you anyway.

It's a bitter pill for everyone: we don't like not being able to help...we don't like not getting payed. The person who is looking for answers doesn't like hearing 'I can't help".. But sometimes the bitter pill is the best medicine.

That is why the STRENGTH card is in the MAJOR arcana. It's a big, but essential lesson for everyone.

Wishing you strength, ethics, compassion and integrity in all the readings you get and give.

MAJOR ARCANA - STRENGTH

Daily Meditation: Strength is more than physical ability. It speaks to how we live life. Fear and anger are the enemies of Strength. Compassion and Integrity are its allies.
