Today you experience a return on your investments … of time, of resources … reaping what you’ve sown.  So, you’re feeling rather smarmy this morning.  You may have to decide whether to put your energy into the things, people and situations that you already are involved with, or whether to spend your energy trying to bring more into your life.  Choose wisely.  What is happening for you today is the direct result of what you did in the past … and this holds true at work and with your finances, especially.  (Pentacles are all about material abundance, after all.)  You have done well minding your resources and investments.  The 7 for today indicates that your relationships are also doing well, especially with the person you are most intimately involved with at this time.  All is well … no need to fear or worry about anyone on this front.  Observe and take note that Life is cyclical … it is a Wheel, thus, whatever goes around, comes around.  Remember that when you make a point to be generous … whether with your time, energy or money … that too is an investment in your own future.  Share what you have and accept gratefully what you are given.

Now that you’ve decided to take on a few projects, you are challenged with juggling to keep everything in balance.  You are likely looking to balance a couple of major areas in your life … money and health, love and work … but multi-tasking is not your strong suit at the moment.  Step back and reassess all the things you are involved with at the moment to discern and reprioritize what’s important to accomplish now.  Focus on two main tasks, at the most, to begin sorting through your To-Do list.  You can apply this same approach if you’re job-hunting, too.  Narrow your focus on no more than two strong possibilities and give your full attention there.  This is also a good time to consider making a wise investment, if you can afford it.  Give your health the healing attention it deserves by making time to get enough rest and relaxation time … it’s important nourishment to nurture your Spirit.

Today is one of striking a balance through  collaborative efforts in the business or personal realms, or both, with a partner.  Incorporating a bit of gentle give-and-take today furthers you in achieving your goals.  On the work front, things are running smoother and you are about to find the right fit.  Keep cool and keep going forward.  Don’t hesitate to ask for what you are truly due or worth.  Energy work aimed at balancing the chakras and/or mind, body and spirit and will improve body health when done today.  A spiritual partnership with another might be just the thing to make expanding your horizons more of an exciting adventure.  Taking the time to care well for yourself spiritually and emotionally is essential to enjoying spiritually successful relationships with others.  You are Square One.

It’s Friday and a great moment to plan a quick weekend getaway.  It’s been an interesting week and you’re getting that second wind to enjoy some much-needed personal time.  So many projects you could tackle this weekend, too, so why not mix a bit of business with pleasure?  Today is also a great day to share your ideas with your partner … both of you could go off on an adventure together … sharing dreams, so to speak … and enjoy some much-needed bonding time.  New adventures will bring new learning experiences to you.  Take the time to explore these new perspectives, but don’t go overboard spending your resources towards them.  Good ole’ fashioned research will suffice.

The road is opening … what was previously a difficult situation is easing up and improving, particularly where work/career is concerned.  Paddle out and catch this next energy wave with an upbeat, energetic approach.  If you’ve had a project in mind, now is an ideal moment to begin your work.  Be bold and ask for what you want/need in the work/career circle of your life …  you are likely to get what you want.  The powerfully explosive energy of the Ace, coupled with a focus on matters relating to fiery creativity in work and career,  means that it is also a positive sign of growth in your finances.  Sometimes, this Ace indicates gifts of money or anything that has value to both giver and receiver.  And, with healthier finances you are in an excellent position to pursue a new health regime.  The payoff for doing this now will be huge later, so don’t delay.  Remember that mind and body are deeply linked; one affects the other, always.  Aces also indicate new beginnings, which means the introduction of new ideas.  A new spiritual influence is coming into your life.  Who or What is/are your spiritual role model(s)?

Your Spidey intuition is definitely ON, so trust your instincts and your impressions, even if you don’t know where they are coming from.  However, here’s a caveat:  all is not what it seems.  If you feel you cannot trust someone, then you probably can’t.  Go with your Gut.  If you are waiting on another for answers, you will need to be patient as it’s going to take a while.  Don’t make business decisions based on anything other than absolute concrete fact.  Ask questions and practice active listening to make sure you and your co-workers understand each other perfectly.  Remain calm and patient.  Give your co-workers and supervisors the benefit of a doubt, because reality may not be anywhere close to as bad as you think.  Emotions are running high in your key relationships.  Don’t make assumptions.  Take a break if you need to … and if you have to argue, be fair and keep those emotions in check.  As far as health is concerned, definitely follow your intuition, if you find you are not in agreement with your healthcare provider, get a second opinion, or a new provider.  Pay attention to your thoughts and feelings, and to flashes of information that come seemingly out of nowhere.  To entertain your Muse, why not check out a few of those spiritually esoteric sources  … you’ll get more out of reading them than usual.

Reminiscing on the good ‘ole days is fine, so long as you are not stuck in the past.  Our memories are imperfect when we choose to focus on what we perceived were the “good” things and conveniently forget about the “bad”.  Creativity is stimulated today, so if you are able to express yourself through drawing, painting, writing, scrapbooking … any activity along those lines … then do so and enjoy what you create.  In your main relationship, refocusing on what matters most to both of you will be the key to brighter tomorrows.  An old lover might come around today … think long and hard before re-starting an old romance.  Ex’s are ex’s for a reason!  Good moneymaking projects would be creative ways that incorporate a retro or nostalgic feel, or appeal to children.  You also might come across money from unexpected sources related to someone in your past, or an inheritance of which you were not previously aware.  Ritual of any kind can be helpful to you spiritually now.  You may find beauty and meaning in re-creating some of the spiritual rituals that you knew as a child … updating and re-inventing your old traditions will serve you very well at this time.
