Where do you belong? Are you feeling out of place, not knowing where you "fit"? Stuck in an identity crunch? So much of 2008 will be concerned with community and fitting in. It’s time to take a look at that concept.
Let’s look at the up side. How do you create your own personal rules? Or, perhaps, I should ask if you create your own personal rules? Today is the day to realize that you have created them and that means you have the power to change them. Know this. You are always in control of the rules, how they work and what they mean. Take a long look at the rules you live by and you’ll discover who and why things happen as they do.
The down side of this card is to live by everyone else's rules rather than the rules that you have created for yourself. This is not about doing anything you want at any time you want. This is about knowing the difference between what works for you and what is devised to work for another. If someone wants to control you, they cannot do it without your permission. This down side is about manipulation.
Whenever this card appears, it is time to get rid of the old and make way for the new. Like pruning. Take the time today to see if you are a manipulator of if you allow yourself to be manipulated. You can’t change things if you are not aware of how they work! This is a new year – make sure you take the time to make room for the new.
