To be honest I didn't feel like blogging today. Yesterday
was our 28th anniversary and today my husband is coming over to celebrate this. A lot of mixed feelings are whirling through my mind but most of
all I am determined to make this visit a success. Especially for him and
hopefully for all for us. So some of my feelings has to be put on the
back burner for today. But when I was playing with my tarot decks just for fun
and relaxation, I noticed I kept drawing a version of the two of swords. I
thought this was so significant I had to write about it. The first two of
swords I did pull this morning was the one from the Tarot of the Sidhe. We see a
face in the sky, half black half white. It
is a quarter moon, half full, half darkened. At the bottom of the card a magpie
spreads it wings; showing his black and white feathers. Everything points out
to a stalemate situation, a temporary balance.
“Now the Mind is split in twain
The glorious whole is seen to wane
And two thoughts must find a path
To bring both peace and conquer wrath”
This is a very
timely card for today. On one hand there is this profound sadness and on the
other hand joy and festivity are in place and expected. M and I have made a
delicious cake with walnuts and chocolate. This will certainly heighten the mood.
For tonight I am going to make my husband’s favorite meal: leek pie, kidney beans
and salad. So now I am going to prepare the leek and the dough for the pie and
I will put in some extra love as “secret” ingredient.
