Tough Times And A Loving Touch

I have so excited about this deck. It's called the 'Infinite Visions Tarot' and has been designed and handmade by Gloria Jean. Its a great size, the art is borderless,  flowing, beautifully coloured, detailed and inspiring. I love it! The handmade touch makes this deck extra special.

Infinite Visions Tarot

Anyway! My dad is still in hospital awaiting another scan to check there isn't an underlying cause. I just got a letter this morning telling me I have to go to court and testify that I saw someone I know (but don't like, some idiot loser) beat my friend up for kudos points. It's also my son's birthday today, and after a stressful morning getting the kids to school I'm a little fed up now!

Using the wonderful 'Infinite Visions Tarot' and asking "What do I need to know today?",  I drew the 'Five of Pentacles', 'Page of Cups' and the 'Eight of Pentacles'. Both the 'Five of Pentacles' and the 'Page of Cups' turned up on Monday so  am concerned that I am missing something that needs my attention.

The 'Five of Pentacles' tells me I am broke (yes, paid big phone bill yesterday!) and there are big changes happening on the home front. Which is true considering my Dad is in hospital, which is pretty bad. He needs to lose weight, I am sure this is whats causing his stomach pains, his body wants him to drop weight, you cannot live on painkillers all your life. I wrote yesterday, that I would take the cards advice and get on his back about it, rather than just keeping quiet.

The 'Page of Cups' again, hmm I am not sure what this card wants to tell me! My brother told me he was gay on Tuesday, that might fit the 'Page of Cups'!  Other than that I am going to receive message of some sorts, perhaps relating to my witness summons which has made me consider whether I will be emotionally strong enough. It also tells me that the changes in the 'Five of Pentacles' are causing me an emotional time, which is true, I realise it now.

So that leaves the 'Eight of Pentacles' - hard work and diligence. Yep, today is going to be action packed with my sons after school party! The 'Eight of Pentacles' shows a little boy with a birthday candle! So, although I'm feeling a little sorry for myself I know I'll get through it with ease, especially with with the 'Eight of Cups' showing - It will be a fun day celebrating my sons birthday - but I can't help imagining that I'll look like the women in the 'Five of Pentacles' by the end!
The quintessential card is the 8+5=13 Which is the 'Death' card. A concerning card considering my dads health, especially when the 'Five of Pentacles', a lower from of the death card, is in my reading. However I think it indicates that something has to be done about by dad's health or he is going to ebb away. The hard work being shown by the 'Eight of Pentacles', the man and child, my father and I, we need to do something together. Perhaps I need to give him this message, perhaps I need to be the 'Page of Cups' and tell him lovingly that he's jolly well going to lose some weight! That's if he improves enough to do it.

With the reappearance of two cards from monday, and many aspects relating to my current situation, I have a tough time ahead and much to think about.

The Page of Cups was a message of love from my mother. Well it was actually a love revelation she had previously denied.
