Tarot Cards of the Day. The Eight's

Eight of Wands :


Speed of changes, acquisition of results.


Fire              Has the ability to bring warmth and re-birth, but also destruction if not controlled. It represents our creativity, ambition and inspiration. As such it becomes the element that governs our desires, projects and achievements.


Positive traits : Actively participate, possible travel options, considered actions

Negative traits : Delayed results / changes, impetuous action, poor judgement

Eight of Cups :

Turning away from successes

Water          When in it's normal state, the fluidity of water represents the ebb and flow of our emotions, relationships and affairs of the heart.  If frozen it can represent challenges or stagnation. As steam, it could represent emotional turmoil and a tendency to over react. It governs the suit of Cups, which are good containers when handle correctly, but if knocked off balance, can readily spill their contents.

Positive traits : Change of scene, moving on and breaking of ties,  ability to develop

Negative traits : Restlessness, unsatisfied with current trends and situations, setting  unrealistic goals


Eight of Swords :


Over thinking, stagnation of actions


Air                Represents issues surrounding character, intelligence, communication and values. As this element governs the suit of swords, it often suggest challenges that will test the mettle of a persons character, intelligence, communication skills and personal values.


Positive traits: Patience, patience and more patience.

Negative traits : A time of depression, hard work with little reward, restricted actions


Eight of Pentacles :


Prudence in all things

Earth           This is the element that relates to all things material, work, business, money and wealth. Success or failure will depend upon how strong the foundation is. Did you start on firm ground or soft? It is easy to see why when you consider where the worlds economic wealth hails from. Whether it is precious metals, gems, gas or oil, all need to be removed from the Earth.


Positive traits : Expect changes in fortune, craft skills, general satisfaction

Negative traits : Lack of decision or direction, wasted opportunities

 Blessed be.
