Where do we go from here?

It freezing cold outside and this frosty weather is a perfect representation of how I feel lately. As you all know S is moving out and is very busy in her new house. The actual move is scheduled in about two weeks and that leaves me in a kind of stasis: a “before and after the move” way of thinking. 
The two cards I’ve drawn for today from the Original Rider Waite Tarot, depict the upcoming changes in our lives very well: The Page of Wands is eager to try out new things. He isn’t quite clear about the how and the why but he does know he wants something new and exciting. The Chariot tells us to find our way into the world, follow our dreams and pursuit our goals. It speaks about living authentically and finding our purpose in life. Fortunately this cards holds the promise of success.
The three of us are on the threshold of a new phase in our lives. S is moving out and M and I are about to find  a new way of living together. Also we have to learn  to live without each other. Not to see and talk to one and other on daily basis. It will probably take some time to get used to all of these changes.  

But for now it is still freezing  outside and everything stays the same for a little while longer

  1. Sounds like you and S will be riding in different Chariots soon. Change can make me feel a little wobbly, but it can be filled with good things too! Wishing you both a smooth ride. :)

  2. I wish you much luck and support in adjusting to this change. I completely understand what it is like for a daily relationship to switch over to a less consistent one.

    It's funny...my year card for 2016 is the Chariot. Momentum...focusing on what you want...moving forward. But currently I am not quite sure where I want to go. I guess I'm standing with the Page of Wands as well.

    1. Thanks WM. I know I am not the only one with changing relationships but sometimes it feels like I am the first mother whose daughter is moving out :)
      I hope the Page of Wands will inspire you too to seek out new adventures whenever you are ready

  3. I also see in the Page of Wands that if you can be happy to be curious and see how things go, you will move forward with greater ease and smoothness :) Good luck with all this transition!

  4. Yes, anticipation definitely has a liminal quality to it. You know what is coming but can't know exactly what it will feel like until it happens, so you are neither entirely "here" nor "there." I hope that the transition is as smooth as possible, and that S enjoys her new phase of life!

    1. She was until this morning when she discovered she was ill with a bad cough and a fever. Hopefully she will recover soon because the move is planned for the coming weekend. Fingers crossed. :D
