With
his wand pointing upward, this magician uses his other hand to not only
point downward, but to the pentacle on the table. Both the pentacle
and his green robe represent the material world; his upward hand and his
headband are associated with the realm of thought and the role it plays
in what manifests in my life. I may find it hard to see the connection
between what I focus on and my reality in my own life, but when I look
at friends and family it seems clear. Those who are full of gratitude
and have an optimistic bent seem to have more to be thankful for, while
those who see the bad in everyone and every situation seem to find that
as well. Today I will attempt to be more mindful of my thoughts - the
one thing I know I have the power to change.

A
man who started on a journey looks back at his home, rethinking his
decision because of the inclement weather. The keywords associated with
this image are "turning back." Underlying all cycles and developments
is a consistent rhythm. I can't rush the sunrise or the change in
seasons. Sometimes I must relax and wait. My rush to action may be
based on a negative point of view - my attitude will be responsible for
the problems created. Someone once told me I could always start my day
over with a fresh outlook, no matter what time it was. I can choose to
turn back, reposition my thoughts, and make a new start. Only then will
my journey yield positive results.
