Weekly Reading: February 16-22, 2015 -- Rumi Tarot

Thanks for checking in for another weekly reading. This week we are using the Rumi Tarot, a beautiful deck that features the poetry of the Sufi mystic Rumi.

Our cards for the week are the Knight of Staves (or Wands), Justice, and the King of Staves. Two main interpretations came to me.

Firstly, the Knight of Staves means that we are going to start the week with a very strong sense of drive, accomplishment, and purpose. The Knight is a person who is ambitious and driven. He has a task to fulfill. You could start out your week feeling very ambitious in business, career, or some kind of aspiration. You feel like you are on fire, driven to succeed.

By mid-week the Justice card shows up. Justice is all about truth, the black and white of an issue. The FACTS. This could mean that you need to pay a lot of attention to detail in what you're doing, especially in business. Be careful before signing any contracts or committing yourself to anything.

The King of Staves is our final card. Kings are masters of their realm, people who have reached their peak in whatever suit they represent. The Staves (Wands) are a suit all about action, creativity, inspiration and energy. This King is a master of accomplishment. He is someone who is very successful at whatever he does, whether it's in business, sports, or in some creative endeavour.

Interpretation #1: With the Justice card coming right before the King, this tells me that truth and facts are going to be crucial in order to progress to this level of success. Once again, pay attention to the details. Be cautious before signing any legal documents or verbally committing yourself to something. You might even want to seek legal advice or the wise counsel of someone you trust.

Interpretation #2 (and I think this interpretation is even stronger than the first): One very important detail I forgot to mention is that the Justice card also represents karma. Karma is all about reaping what you sow. How you treat others is how people will treat you. When it comes to your aspirations this week, no matter how ambitious or success-driven you feel, make sure you don't sacrifice your morals or step on other people in order to get ahead. That kind of behaviour will always come back to bite you in the butt. If you treat people fairly and behave with honesty and intergrity, success will be yours.

I think the Justice card is our main focus this week. How do you treat others? Are you behaving with honesty and integrity? Are you being vigilant not only about your own behaviour but about the truth, the facts? Are you seeing a situation clearly? If all is clear, we can do a lot of growing this week and it will end on a very high note.

Have a great week!
