The Herbcrafter's Tarot

Growth
(8:44) #88 Thinking about growth...abundance...food for life. Thinking about the metaphor of the plants I’m growing and nurturing back to health and how that applies to my life. It’s a slow steady process and the goal is to minimize the stress. Stress is the mess that gets in the way of the entire manifest.
What will be shall be no matter what; but it helps to remove all distractions to stay out that rut. The mind is a powerful thing...being...seeing...
All-knowing...so powerful...mind-blowing!
THE CHARIOT in traditional tarot speaks on being a warrior and understanding how to balance the polarities within - the light/dark, masculine/feminine energies. The energy behind THE CHARIOT usually embodies movement of some sort; whether this is internally and/or externally. THE CHARIOT astrologically represents Cancer in the zodiac. Cancerians are generally stable, grounded and in tune with their emotions. Cancers are also very intuitive individuals. The number seven (7) may speak on growth, spiritual enlightenment, a spiritual journey or journey of any kind, and endings. Seven (7) is also a number of manifestations. The Cedar tree, spiritually, may represent strength, beauty, and grace. Some even believe that it speaks on eternity, leading into the number eight (8) which divinely follows the number seven (7). No coincidence that the number eight (8) classically represents STRENGTH (Leo energy) within the major arcana in most traditional tarot decks. ALL things are divinely guided!
The guidebook that comes along with The Herbcrafter's Tarot advises one to:
- Move forward with confidence.
- Be disciplined yet flexible in your pursuits.
- Embody the journey.
As I mentioned about the warrior being representative of THE CHARIOT; further advice comes from the author, Latisha Guthrie, to "have faith in the journey" and "it's not the triumph but the journey that leads to mastery."
In closing, allow yourself to enjoy each and every step along the way no matter how difficult it may seem. All lessons, trials and tribulations are to help build strength, perseverance, flexibility and durability. You are meant to learn from any past "L's" because they are simply lessons, right!?
"Always remember to spread LOVE & LIGHT, and EVERYTHING will be alright!"
