Take a Break from the Battle

From the Morgan Greer Tarot, the Four of Pentacles; from the Goddesses and Sirens Oracle, "Sekhmet:"

          Normally I would read this card as possessiveness, but because I spent nine hours cleaning out yesterday, I don't think this applies. I filled up two and a half large trash bags to put out with the garbage, and filled up the back of my card with stuff for Goodwill. None of it was clothes (I don't have much of those). So besides material things, the Four of Pentacles can represent time, energy and health. As I am sore from head to toe, I'm guessing this fellow would encourage me to stop my cleaning insanity and take a break.
          Sekhmet was a protector, and she fueled her energy for battle by tapping into the nature of the lioness. After one hard-won battle, her bloodlust was still high. The people were shaking in their shoes, waiting for her to pounce on them. To placate her, Ra turned the Nile into blood and told her to drink from it. The water wasn't blood but beer, which took the fight and fury out of Sekhmet and kept the people safe. I can get highly motivated when I start clearing out (my family will groan and say, "Uh oh, mom's in cleaning mode again."). And though I'll bypass the beer, I think I will relax and enjoy some iced chamomile and citrus tea today. That other stuff I want to get rid of isn't going anywhere.
