"everyone's got a Monday..."


1) Possible: XX - The Aeon.

Are you serious? It's Monday, for fuck's sake. Nothing of actual importance ever happens on a Monday. Mostly to busy trying to avoid the mundane terrors that are conjured by the thoughts and fears of an entire populace concerning Monday as a mythical sort of beast intent on destroying us all.

But I like Aeons, mostly. I like the promise that this particular set of terrors is to an end, that there is something coming of it. It's tidy, and hopeful, and I've got way too many planets in Virgo and Sag to not be drawn to tidy, hopeful things.

the possibilities of Wednesday

This is possible: 6 of Wands - Valour

This is important: 5 of Cups - Disappointment

This is courageous: Princess of Wands

This is futile: Queen of Disks

This is necessary: Knight of Swords

This is joyful: VIII - Adjustment

This is funny: Ace of Wands

This helps you to get ahead: Princess of Swords

Today's best case scenario: much is accomplished, through a lot of effort (6W). I am having trouble reconciling that with the 5 of Cups, but I will be on the look out for disappointing things. The courageous part? Seeing this whole situation, whatever it might be, as an adventure (Princess of W), because actually being in control in any meaningful sense (Queen of Disks) will be impossible. It will be necessary to stay cool and objective about it, which is a difficult if I'm to be doing any Princess of Wands-ing. The joyful part of this is finding clarity and balance (VIII). I think this has to be important because it's the only major. In addition, being bitchy and critical might assist me (PsSw). I don't really get how the Ace of Wands is funny. It's a funny card, but...

There are too many court cards today and too many conflicting ideas. Get in there, fight hard, but it's not actually going to work. Have fun, but don't think for a second you're in control. Stay objective and cool unless you think you really need to be bitchy, in which case, feel free.

Sounds like a bit of a disaster, especially on so little sleep.

no hx of trauma (the story of a very expensive trance)

I am having shoulder drama. Whatever. Shoulder drama isn't new. What's new, this time, is that after a month of ibuprofen abuse, and ice packs, and chiropractic appointments (two or three times a week), my doctor looked at me, with a bit of concern, and said, "I think we should schedule an MRI."  Cue panic, and everyone I know sharing rotator cuff stories, and finally me being so bored with the whole thing that I start moving conference room tables again because it's just pain, after all.

COTD: The 8 of Disks

The 8 of Disks suggests, to me, discernment. Carefulness. Watchfulness and patience and reserve.

Attributes that most of my dearest ones would admit, even after a moment of discomfort, that I lack.

Also, I'd much rather be running amok today, kicking ass and/or taking names and/or drinking something fruity with an umbrella. Those 8 Disks are surveying me, now, with mild horror. (They're not capable of any other kind.)

Also, there is a lot on my plate today, so I wonder - do I have to 8 of Disks everything? (This where I try to get another answer, because... I don't want to. I don't want to listen to the cards and sit still, on my hands, not talking, today. I don't want to stay home and be careful about everything.

So I did a whole 10-card about where I am right now.
