Daily Tarot Reading: 29 April, Taurus 2015

A wonderful Thursday afternoon to you, Sault Ste. Marie! And what a wonderful day it is: lots of sunshine and a cool breeze make a beautiful couple. As usual, there are no scheduled classes today - just our regular store hours from 12pm to 8pm! If you're looking for something to do today, come visit us - if I were a betting man, I'd wager you've never had a bibliomancy reading. Curious? Well, you'll never know if you don't go!

And remember, this Saturday from 2pm to 3pm: All lightworkers, healers, Reiki practitioners, and those who follow a hands-on meditative practice for the betterment of mind, body, and spirit are invited to gather inside Energy Revived at 288 Wellington St. West next to Big Dave's Tattoos for a free group healing circle. 

For practical reasons, this event is for practitioners only. We won't ask for proof of training or check your lineage - this is just an opportunity for all hands-on healers to gather together and share the spirit. The circle is from 2pm to 3pm, and please arrive a few minutes early so we can set up the massage table, chairs, or yoga mats as appropriate into the best configuration for the number of participants.

And following the Millennium clock, today's Tarot card reading is marked by the union of the 4 and 5 of Diamonds who teach the lesson that new opportunities and evolutions don't necessarily lower the worth of your own achievements and chosen path. 

Indeed, this is the lesson of self-confidence and being self-assured: if you truly believe that your chosen path for achieving success in life is so great, then you shouldn't be worried when new or different paths reveal themselves. In a way, today echoes the words of Oliver Goldsmith who famously quoted a Latin expression, saying, "Be not affronted at a joke. If one throw salt at thee, thou wilt receive no harm, unless thou art raw." 

Or said another way, "Don't get upset at opportunity. If life presents different paths, you wouldn't be bothered unless you really felt you were going the wrong direction to begin with."
