The Dream

Keywords:

Goals, dreams, reality

Tarot Card Coordinate: Temperance

Advice:

It is important to have dreams, and The Dream wants us to always remember that. You should never give up what’s important to you, no matter the level of difficulty or because of the negative influence of others. They are your’s and should be kept close to the heart. However dreams only stay dreams if action is not taken. You don’t have to make drastic changes or decisions to achieve your dreams because chances are, they will not be accomplished immediately, instead take small steps forward one foot at a time. When traveling long distances, if you keep moving you’ll eventually reach your destination.

Warnings:
Although having dreams and goals are important, you must not lose touch with reality. This doesn’t necessarily mean you should give up, it is merely suggesting that you should accept things that you cannot change.

Example:

Even though So-And-So said they only want to stay friends, will we ever be together?

The Dream is suggesting that although you want to have a relationship, you have to accept that they are not interested at the current time. It doesn’t mean you should stop being friends or that they could never ever be interested. Instead of trying to make them interested in you for immediate results, take small steps towards becoming good friends. Although you may never be together, you could always end up being the best of friends.

The Dash

Keywords:

Haste, multi-tasking, moving on, letting go

Tarot Card Coordinate: Six of Swords

Advice:

If you find yourself being pulled back by past events, perhaps The Dash is telling you it’s time to let go and move on. You will only harm yourself if you keep dwelling on things long gone. Your life is slowing down because you keep turning back to these problems. Make haste. You need to realize that you can’t change the past, but you can change the future. The Dash teaches us to move forward and don’t turn back.

Warnings:
If you find yourself overwhelmed, it may seem that you are trying to imitate The Dash by being able to do it all at once. Perhaps sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. If you feel like you’re being suffocated, it’s time to take each task head on one by one. Focus on one thing at a time, that way you are less likely to overlook mistakes and key details.

Example:

I am starting a new relationship, but I keep thinking about my ex. Why do I do this?

The Dash is suggesting that you can’t successfully start this new relationship until you let go of the past. Maybe you were hurt by your ex, and because of this you are blocking yourself off to new possibilities because you are afraid that you might get hurt again. You can’t fully appreciate your new love interest until you’ve learned to let your ex go. Keep in mind that this new person is not your ex and you cannot punish him/her for what your ex has done to you. Until you decide to move on, your new partner will suffer in the relationship.

The Dark

Keywords:

Mystery, confusion, deception, hope

Tarot Card Coordinate: The Moon

Advice:

When faced with a negative situation, The Dark tells us to always remember that it’s darkest before the dawn. Your situation may end badly, but that doesn’t mean nothing good will come out of it. Take your mistakes to heart and learn from them. This card also represents hope in a time of darkness. Like they say, “You don’t lose by going down, you lose by staying down.”

Warnings:
When we wander around in the dark, chances are we will get lost or confused. When dealing with a person/problem there may be factors that try to trick you off of the right path. These factors may or may not be obvious, so it is best to walk slow and be cautious. In the dark, things are not always what they seem.

Example:

After a period of conflict and stress, So-And-So decided that they want to make up. Why are they doing this and what should I do?

If someone who has caused trouble in the past and suddenly wants to patch things up, The Dark is telling you to be careful when dealing with them. What motives do they have for fixing things? Do they truly want to make things better, or are they doing it for selfish reasons? If you choose to give them a second chance, don’t rush into repairing the relationship right away. Let things move slowly and see how it develops. If they really want to make things better it will show in time. Be weary if they want immediate forgiveness, if they really cared they would not mind taking the time to earn your respect/love back.
