Card of the Day - 10/29

We are continuing to use the Halloween Tarot by Kipling West for the entire month of October. This reading is being assisted by the use of the exciting and cheeky Steampunk Tarot by Barbara Moore. I chose this card earlier in the day from my Steampunk Tarot app on my iPod Touch. 

Today's card: Seven of Pentacles & King of Ghosts

Shadow and top cards: The Hermit & Ten of Pumpkins. 

I added up the numerology of the cards. 7 + 1 (court cards are 1)+ 9 + 10=27=9. 

Doreen Virture's Angel Numbers 101 app says this about the number nine:

Get to work, Lightworker—now! The number 9 means that you’ve completed all of the prerequisites to achieve your life purpose. Stop procrastinating, as it’s time to start taking action steps. Even baby steps are useful.

The 9 is also about a completion of something and the hope of something new appearing on the horizon. 

So, now is the time of action. That is pretty funny considering The Hermit is all about going into solitude. And basically, inaction. The 7 of Pentacles is also about inaction. You are waiting on external things to manifest and you feel stuck.  The Steampunk Tarot defines the 7 of Pentacles this way. It's time to seriously assess the situation. It's the card of quiet contemplation. Identify what you had hoped to accomplish and see how far you've come. 

The King of Cups is driven by emotions, art and relationships he would rather sit back and watch his loved ones have a good time than actively participate in shared activities. He is driven by his heart. 

Basically what these three aspects are saying is that the waiting is over. It is time to start jumping into the fray and taking action on those things your heart leads you to. You've done all the work. And now is the time to saddle up and move em on out. 

The Hermit says that you'd rather stay in your man cave and hide out playing with your x-box and video game emulator. But you have broken the seal on your new beginning and it is coming in so you might as well get ready. 

The Ten of Pentacles says that if you take action now you will definitely be rewarded. You may feel like you're walking in the dark like a sightless man navigating the scary  city sidewalks. But this is telling you that even baby steps is enough right now. 

So the waiting is now over. Giddy up!

Blessings.
