Once in a Very Blue Moon Spread

January 1st, 2010. Blue Moon of December 31st, 2009

Deck: Universal Tarots

Card One: What about me is unique and rare?

10 of wands: This card signifies in many instances a burden, an overloan on your shoulders. But as a response to the question, the first thing to get to my mind was my capacity for multitasking. Thas is for me routine. From other sources, I have learned that "multitasking" is the way of 2010 at universal level, so I was not surprised at all to see this card. After consulting other books of tarot, I found interesting information related to this card: "take time for your personal journey" (from Tarot Bible). This is also related for my plans for the future in regard to spiritual activities.

Card Two: What unusual subject(s) should I focus on in the coming month?

3 of coins: This card is related to work, with skills. The focus this month is related to my skills and abilities. I interpretet it, to follow up with the same topic, with the fact that I need to use my knowledge and spiritual gift for selfguide and to plan my future in a couple of years. "Being aware of your potentials" one of the intepretations given in the Tarot Bible. It certainly confirms my interpretation. Also "do work that is satisfaying". That is why I am working in this blog.

Card Three: What should I do that is out of the ordinary this month?

The King of Swords: This king brings intellectual energy. He is articulated, analytic and assertive. That is the way I have to behave this month. The Tarot Bible says“Tap into your mind power”,  "cut through confusion and mental fog”.  In other words, it is absolutely necessary to think and plan first, and later have the discipline to implement the plans. It is important to stay focus and follow the plans.

Card Four: What message does this Blue Moon have for me?

The king of wands: This king's energy is one of self assurance and sometimes, even self-suficient. The message for me is absolutely clear: I need to start believing in myself and my capacities. From Tarot Bible I get: “Believe in yourself!” This king is a master in some sort of art or job. He is a risk-taker, and does not hesitate to risk anything in order to do what he consider his passion. His intuition and knowlege are his guide to achieve what he wants, without paying attention to the opinions and comments of others.
Interpretation:

* Two court cards. Both kings. This is a month to project myself in a different way, with the characteristics and attittude indicated by the two cards. It is interesting that are male energies, more active. Definitely, this reading is directed toward my job and my plans for the future in this field. It is totally consistent with the information obtained through other sources.
*To summarize: Given my ability to multitask, and making an effort to dedicate some time to follow my personal, spiritual path, I should focus on my spiritual skills in order to work on something that satisfies me and makes me happy. The energies of the two kings suggest that I use my analytic capacity and my discipline to achieve my goals. Also I need to trust myself, listen to my intuition and use my knowledge and experience to move ahead with a project that reflects my passion, even if its necessary to take some risks.
