For today I've drawn the Ten of Pentacles from
the Anna K Tarot. As I’ve said before, this beautiful and vibrant colored tarot
deck reads for me like a storybook. This card is the “They live happily ever
after” card for me. It is all about family, security, loyalty, traditions and
yes… also about gratitude for all these things J.
Honestly, the
guidebook says: “The Ten of Pentacles stand for the kind of wealth that can be found in
daily life. They stand for happiness with your family, for the small joys of
life - garden, sunshine, a cup of tea, the sound of rain, the visit of a good
friend... Those who know and appreciate this kind of wealth will hardly ever be
discontented or unhappy.”
So as from today this can also be my "gratitude" card!

Yesterday I've
addressed the issue of last post and although difficult is was the right
decision to do. Afterwards I felt so much better. It was such a relief to have been able to
express my feelings and to be heard.
What stands
out to me the most in this card, is the love and care for this tiny baby. It is
surrounded by family and friends and is safe and protected. When I consider a
tarot card as a mirror of who I am then the child is that little precious part
of me who I want so badly to be happy and cherished. And today I am sure I am
not the only one who wants this and I
feel loved and supported by my family and dear ones
I suppose it was because I just read Sharyn's post - Wake Up! - that your post reminded me of how often I miss out on the little joys because I'm looking for a Big Joy (winning the lottery, taking an exotic vacation, etc.). If I look at life through a child's eyes of wonder, I won't fail to notice them. :)
ReplyDeleteLooking at life through the eyes of a child is a beautiful attitude.
DeleteI've learned many little joys together are resulting often in a very big smiles. Just this morning I've bought a new vacuum cleaner and another customer in the shop offered to bring it to my car. Now how sweet is that. and now I am smiling again :D
It really is important to remember what you love and to say it out loud. Stop feeding your worries and use that time to feed your spirit instead. Easy to say and maybe a little harder to do but certainly 100% worth the effort. Always ongoing. Keep smiling today, Ellen. :))))
DeleteThanks you Carol I know how important this is and also how this is an ongoing learning process
DeleteKeep smiling too my friend!
Hugs
That is such a beautiful interpretation, Ellen! Yes, we all want to be happy and cherished. And a part of that is allowing ourselves to be cherished...
ReplyDeleteWell receiving all these wonderful comments on my Anniversary blog was indeed a happy experience. I find myself more aware of these experiences now I've been more mindful about expressing gratitude
