I have a confession to make.
I have been crying A LOT lately.
Granted I am pregnant and my whole life changed in the last 12 months and I am far away from my family and most of my friends. Aaaaaand I am pregnant.
It is hard to know if it is because I have a body full of crazy, nausea inducing hormones or if it is because I am processing a lot of change. There is also the part of me that is resisting it.
I can’t help but enter any sacred space and immediately miss my coven sisters and my community in Australia. Which leads to tears.
I can’t help but hear from people back home and question why I am here sometimes so far away. Which brings tears.
I can’t help but feel tired and uninspired by my very basic life at the moment (which goes a little something like; sleep, work, sleep, work, sleep, laundry) and the pressure I am putting on my significant other. Then the water works start.
I am not sharing any of this to get sympathy. I am not the first person to be away from home pregnant. In fact I met a lovely choreographer at my sisters party in Seattle last weekend who was pretty much in the same boat. I am not the only woman who has moved away answering a calling that she barely understands at time to find it harder than she thought.
What has been reassuring is the presence of the 7 of Wands that has been coming up in all of my readings it is the one card I have pulled for the last few days which is a pretty loud call from my guides and I am listening.
This card always reminds me that I am never given anything I can not handle. That I need to ‘Just Keep Swimming’ and that I am on the right track. Yes it is hard and I am a little weary but not everything comes easy.
There is also an aspect of being prepared about this card. Which calls to question when is prepared enough? Certainly a lot is going on at the moment which could warrant a little more attention but I am not sticking my head in the sand and ignoring it either.
So persistence, persistence, persistence. That is my message at the moment. Which is encouraging and also requires me to remain diligent and steady.
I would love to hear if you have a note on the 7 of Wands meaning or if it has shown up in your life lately, either in a reading or in a situation.
Blessings

I am very new to Tarot. I have been doing a little ritual that I came up with before I start using the card. And from there I just do whatever comes natural. So tonight the seven of Wands came up. And I always look at the card before I research the meaning. And I answer the questions that you suggested one by one.
I think she would talk she would say I’m too smart for this s*** I’ve learned valuable lessons from my battles in the past. I may not be the smartest person but my soul is enlightened. She has no regrets she knows each and every situation was necessary for her to ascend. Her voice would be even toned confident sure and calm. I think I would be quite comfortable with her.
And right now I’m in the part of this routine that I am researching the meaning.
