Tarot - August 2010

• Message from the Master

Let-go means no competition, no struggle, no fight… just relaxing with existence, wherever it leads. Not trying to control consequences, but allowing them to happen…not even thinking about them. Let go is in the present, consequences are tomorrow. And let-go is such a delightful experience, a total relaxation, a deep synchronicity with existence, says Osho, the Zen master.

You are left with mixed feelings of failure and success this month as some projects work wonderfully well and other situations defeat you. Health problems need watching and a steady recovery is on the cards! Finances, resources, energy, relationships and forces are best conserved for now or you could be depleted. Some business plans are likely to be delayed and financial deals take longer than expected, to materialize. It’s a good time to be earthy, realistic and practical to resolve most issues in your life. Speculation and risk is best avoided at this point. Voluntary work and artistic pursuits bring much satisfaction this month. Don’t be disappointed if some promises are not fulfilled or friends let you down as it is a temporary and unavoidable phase. Yoga and meditation prove to be therapeutic. Lucky number is 7. Good colour is silver.

You display great skill in sports or physical activity that wins you appreciation and opportunity to travel. Beware of a covetous and suspicious person around you who can cause misunderstanding in your personal relationships. Involvement in material and practical aspects can rob you of your originality and creativity so keep a balance on all levels of consciousness, that is, the spiritual, mental, emotional and physical. Stop clinging to anything or anyone but loosen your grip, feel free and share or you become fearful, restricted and narrow. Lucky number is 4. Good colour is deep red.
