Card of the Day: 2 of Wands
Tuesday: Ruled by Mars
Hello, Tuesday! I can’t believe the Autumn Equinox is in two days. Already I’m starting to notice a shift of the season here in the mountains. A lot of blooms are going to seed, leaves are just barely starting to change color and the temperatures have been dropping. It’s been a very nice summer but I’m so ready for fall!
Tuesday is ruled by Mars and is associated with asserting one self, our inner drive and ambition.
Today’s card is the 2 of Wands from the Thoth Tarot. This card is tied to Mars in Aries (Mars also rules Aries).
As a card for the day: How do we tap into our ambition and inner drive today? The 2 of Wands invites you to dive all in and push yourself! Think about your goals and what you really want, and take some active steps towards those today… even if they’re small ones. Any action is better than none. With Mars in Aries, there’s no stopping you so try not to get in your own way by overthinking it. I’m guilty of this more times than I would like to admit. Push doubt aside and go for it!
The fiery energy in the day and in the card says to go, go, go!
I’m woke up feeling quite driven today, not so much physically but more mentally. My hands are anxious to write and create… My first intuitive reaction to the imagery of this card was me thinking the two crossed Tibetan Dorjes in the center were actually pens. The blue color brings some clarity into this cards energy… it’s heated but also some balance. Since it’s Mars day, I think I will apply my energy into translating some notes in my old notebooks and push myself into getting some writing done today!
