You know, I didn't get into the non-profit world to do networking or to struggle with competition - I just want to help kids learn! I had a weird, stressful day at work, I've got a big grant hearing tomorrow, and my car is making a burned-plastic smell. Not the best of days... Let's see what's in store for tomorrow:
Ah! Looks like a better day! By the way, I'm using the Universal Waite tarot deck, which is one of the most common decks from the 20th century. I like it because it has a lot of Judeo-Christian symbolism - and it was my first deck! (My favorite deck is the Robin Wood Tarot, though, which is based on a pagan symbolism.)
Body: The Sun
I take this to mean that I'll be feeling complete and whole and healthy and happy. The Sun is just about the most positive card in the deck! How wonderful! It shows a smiling naked child on a white horse, with a stone wall and sunflowers in the background, and a huge smiling sun. The child is waving a red flag, too.
Mind: The Three of Wands
This card symbolizes waiting for a return on something you've invested time into. Very appropriate since I'm going to a grant meeting! I've been spending a lot of time working very hard on grants for the museum, I think this card is telling me to be patient and wait for the ships to come in. The card shows a man standing on an overlook watching three ships in a golden ocean. I learned the meaning of this card to be: you've put out good things and now you're waiting for them to come back to you.
Spirit: The World
Two Major Arcana! This is exciting - a big positive day! The World symbolized completeness, wholeness, and happiness. It shows a naked woman surounded by a wreath with a purple sash wrapped around her. This is the last card in the Major Arcana, which is why it symbolized wholeness and a completeness.
Well, according to these cards, tomorrow should be a much better day! Whew!
