Wealth, Connections & Secrets

How much joy can one life generate? This Ace of Pentacles reminds me that each piece is connected to the other until they circle back to form a perfect hula hoop for me to dance within.

Today’s card is a reminder to me of how connected things are in my life. I do a JoyPatrolAlert in the late afternoon/early evening. I did today’s BEFORE looking at the card I drew from the Pearls Of Wisdom Tarot. I laughed. Check back this evening and let me know if you can figure out why I laughed.

Here we see the Ace of Pentacles embodied by a beautiful priestess. She holds the coin high over her head. It’s decorated by a Celtic knotwork. The sides of the card form a doorway. Everything that could make her a wealthy woman is before her. Keys to the business. Jewelry. Even a musical instrument should she just want to play a happy tune.

This is my reminder that the sleeping cats on my table (yes,I know) are connected to the dogs piled up under the blanket on the couch. The sweet smell of baked yams connects me to my memories of so many holiday gatherings that my mind boggles. I am 51 years old. If I have been to just the big holidays with family and/or friends, I’ve still celebrated over 150 times.

That’s a lot of joy. And I’m not counting birthdays or weddings or any other rites of passage where I’ve gathered with those I love.

Do you follow? As she passes through the door, those ribbons of light and color stream behind her. She is the embodiment of the suit of Earth–community, family, friends. Wealth isn’t just the things around the doorway. Wealth is her and who she attracts to her.

Y’all make me the wealthiest woman in the world. Thank you for sharing this with me.

Remind yourself, when you feel disconnected or alone, that you aren’t. We are here for one another. That’s one of the secrets of the Universe.

Seek joy, y’all. Pass it on.
