Today's Theme for Daily Life
Dealing with a trouble-maker
What's your first reaction when you have to cope with someone who is critical, negative, or unfair? Do you try to reason with him? Do you strike back? Do you say nothing and just seethe? Do you fret and feel guilty for days? Do you just try to shut it all out and act like it doesn't bother you?
How about this one ... do you stop and ask yourself why someone would behave like that? This strategy alone could set you free from ever worrying again about what such a person thinks of you. It could also make you rejoice that you're not him.
An additional thought to ponder:
A trouble-maker is exercising power -- either the only kind he has or the only kind he thinks he has. Either way, if you get sucked into his games, you're helping to provide him with the power he wants.

The art of living lies less in eliminating our troubles
than in growing with them.

Today's Theme for Relationships
Rediscovering joy
Expect to get a wake-up call in the next few days ... demonstrating how you are drifting, wasting time, being irresponsible, not using your talents, feeling sorry for yourself, being pessimistic, lazy, and generally indulging your Inner Victim. That realization, of course, is the first step toward standing up, adjusting your attitude, and putting yourself back in charge of you inner creative life and your emotional well-being again.
You may encounter this energy "by example," too ... through an encounter with someone else who acts this out for your benefit ... and education. If you find yourself dealing with someone living in a world of his own, running away from reality through counter-productive strategies, complaining that nobody loves him and that he never gets a break ... and using these excuses to continue mucking his way through life -- you've got a cautionary tale unfolding right before your eyes.
Be sure you're not buying into some of the same futile tactics, and be doubly sure you're not playing the part of the "patsy" ... helping somebody else stay on this pointless merry-go-round with endless offers of "help," money, understanding, advice, and sympathy.
An additional thought to ponder:
Do you know what it takes for you to be happy? Many people don't. Even the structure of our language seems to put that state outside ourselves somehow. We speak of something "making" us happy, as if we are passive pawns of circumstance. We're not, and if we stop acting and thinking otherwise, happiness is a lot easier to find.

To be surprised, to wonder, is to begin to understand.

Today's Theme for Money and Practical Concerns
Parasitical attitudes
The next few days may present you with a close-up chance to witness over-riding concern with luxury and status, snobbishness, pretentiousness, and vanity. You may have to cope with someone who is helpless, lazy, impractical, wasteful, or irresponsible. Or you may have to confront these qualities in yourself.
This suggests an encounter with someone who blames others for her problems, stubbornly refuses to assume responsibility for her own life and actions, is poisonously status conscious, or who wants others to "take care" of her. Again, these may be facets of your personality that rise up and demand attention. Regardless of how this experience takes shape in your life, notice your response when it arrives.
An additional thought to ponder:
This card depicts a very childish or short-sighted attitude regarding life's practical responsibilities. The energy here wants to be pampered, coddled, and provided for without effort. Often it shows up as a woman who doesn't work -- or doesn't want to, as someone whose self-image is way too attached to her economic status and love of convenience and luxury, or someone who can't or won't take care of herself.
It's also possible you are causing yourself physical problems from the stress and concern you feel over money, etc., which is not the way to safeguard your health. The natural caring, gentle, nourishing energy of this card's uncorrupted expression needs to be restored in your life.

What you pursue, you don't get.
But what you allow to grow slowly in its own way, comes to you.
