Divination Systems: Be Your Oracle
"2008 YEAR OF FORTUNE"
|
|
 |
by James Wanless, Ph.D |
|
|

Our lucky number in 2008 is ten, for those digits add up to ten, which means perfection. Ten reduces to the number one, which portends perfect unity and a new beginning. Ten in the Tarot represents the Fortune card and number one is the Magician. The Latin origin of the word, "fortune," is the realization of your destiny and abundance in all aspects of life. Magic is your power to make all this come true.
Wow, the potential for our coming year is potentially huge, personally and collectively! It's a real turnaround opportunity, but it comes with activating the principles that are symbolized in the Fortune and Magician cards and in the Voyager Tarot's map of the whole life as seen in all the number ten cards and their associated number ones, the Aces. Indeed, the opportunity of 2008 is manifested when the chance of our lot in life is met by preparation and action on these time-tested, universal tarot principles.
Let's get going, by first of all, believing in this possibility and intending its realization. This is the "opportunistic mind," where every thing, every situation, and every person is an opening and resource for good fortune. Where some find trash, see a treasure. While others wallow in setback, view it as a strategic retreat to find the open door of endless treats. As the Ten of Crystals suggests, we can either follow our visions and dreams, or crap out in doubt. Even if you don't believe, believe.
And follow your passions (Ten of Cups)! When you are passionate, you are fortunate. Where there is passion, there is genius. With genius, wherein resides the magic of our inner Magician, there is success. It all starts with the impassioned beat of your heart. It takes heart to follow your heart. To win the big spin on the wheel of life is risky business. Fortune is like the roulette wheel, so now is the time to gamble on yourself with courage and trust. We never know whether our dreams are just that, delusions and pipedreams, but like the matador in the Voyager deck, it's only by risking misfortune that we find our fortune.
2008 is not for the faint of heart, it's for those of you who are ready to grow, stretch and reach (see the Ten of Wands "Growth"). Jupiter, Fortune's planet, suggests that it's time to expand, increase, go big. The outcome for betting on yourself is reward, victory and success. Keep visualizing yourself being successful, steadfastly and often. As you do this inner picturing, feel the feeling of success, and affirm your magical abilities and talents.
In doing your "readings" for the new year, your outcome cards represent the possible future. If you like what you see, follow the fortune and magic principles to make them come true. If the cards have frowned upon you, now you are prepared to prevent and pre-empt. Once you have committed to turning the wheel from down to up, pick another card as your reward. Again, if you like what you see, meditate on it and make it happen.
