EXPERIENCING the Tarot MUSE OF MATERIALS

In the garden of life, she finds herself at a door. Above the door sits the Muse of Materials, reflected in all of nature. She whispers from the flowers, the grasses… the trees… she flitters with the birds and babbles in the creeks. The Muse of Materials uses all the materials of the earth to bring her world to form. She looks down at the small traveller and offers a lesson of manifesting and abundance, “Sweet creator, these things are yours for the taking and the using. The fusing and the gentle forming. Your harvest, little sprout, arises from the earth, so ground into her low humming energy and breathe in her humidity and warmth.” The traveller takes a small step towards the gardens of light and treasures, and commits to watering, healing, dancing and loving as much as she can. She commits to her own undoing and re-becoming. She commits to her own love and abundance. She commits to being open to it all, and the pathway opens up for her. Material success and joys are arriving! The Muse promises a pathway of so much wealth for those who are willing to live in her inspired love. Seek the grounding energy of her earthly delights, and know that your own fertile lands are blooming now.


PATHWORKING VISUALIZATION

Approach the entrance of the garden of wealth, and ask the Muse that guards the gates what riches lie within for you.


CREATIVE PROMPT

Garden, plant and root intentions. With a stick or with your bare hands, write your desire in the fertile soil of the earth. Then plant it. All of the instructions needed to grow a giant tree lie within its tiny seed, so take some time to plant something in your garden, with the intention that as you water it and care for it, your nourishment will also help you to manifest something in your life that you desire to create.

CREATOR MUSING

Are you sending nurturing, mothering energy to yourself (and to your creations) the way you so readily send it to others?

WORD PROMPT

The highway of fruition

EXPERIENCING the Tarot QUEEN OF MATERIALS

Strong and loving, determined and courageous, this Queen stands beneath a poster of her upcoming Prosperity and Ascension premiere. The other Muses lovingly tease her about her larger-than-life self-promos, but she knows that she must walk the talk in order to model the path to self-love and acceptance. She wants to nurture this in all of us – this path to wealth, health and joyful abundance, but her unconditional love means she will always teach us how to do it for ourselves instead of simply gifting us prosperity. She will shower us with warm, nutritious meals and freshly dried linens to keep our spirits up, and offer a limitless supply of opportunity for comfort and security. She wants us to learn how to be independent and accountable within her safety net of life. She reminds you to lean on family and to nurture those around you. She loves to see all of her children succeed, and she reminds us that loyalty, trust-worthiness and a steady, down-to-earth approach will always help move us in the right direction.


PATHWORKING VISUALIZATION

Imagine yourself on a busy street, seeing all the different ideas of wealth, success and prosperity represented by the different people and groups of people you observe. Interact with them if you feel called. The Queen of Materials stands watching over them all, whispering helpful suggestions and dropping opportunities for wealth along their paths. Bring her your curiosities, and she will have a guiding answer for you.


CREATIVE PROMPT

Make a poster of yourself as your ideal Queen of Pentacles. Are you known for anything specific? Are you giving a talk or sharing some lessons you’ve learned along the way? Collage it. Write it. Paint it. How do you feel and look in this image of self and wealth?

CREATOR MUSING

One foot in front of the other, sweet creator. Steady paces make for a beautiful harvest.

WORD PROMPT

The task of joy

EXPERIENCING the Tarot KNIGHT OF MATERIALS

This knight loves to cultivate the fields of his success. He takes great joy in tilling the soil and removing the tiniest of weeds, and he finds such gratification tending to the smallest of details, knowing that they will make a difference in the future. He runs through his little patch of soil, every day, and he works towards his harvest in a consistent manner. Purposeful. He once tried to take great risks with his fields, working in long, sleepless spurts and with giant showy plants that would reap even bigger rewards. Most of the large plants withered when his worries about his income overtook his ability to just be. To just do. To just find happiness in the simple movement of life. He soon found that he was much happier without the splashy accolades, and that he was infinitely more confident with his beautiful little succulents… the ones that offered guaranteed, stable success, whenever he was consistent. While his tasks may seem like a hum-drum routine to some, he finds great Zen and relaxation in a task well-done. Meaning. He is more than satisfied with his growing collection of beautiful plants, watered and loved – sunned and birthed with his energy. Finding the right routine for his style of care, and choosing the right plants for his style of watering made all the difference in the world to his harvest and his happiness. And he watches them grow… knowing that someday he will be well taken care of, because of the them.


PATHWORKING VISUALIZATION

Spend some time in the Knight’s succulent garden, and when you find him working, ask him your question, or offer a helping hand.


CREATIVE PROMPT

Succulent mandalas! The geometries of life are found within succulents, sunflowers, and so many other plants. Take some time to draw a succulent mandala, starting with a center dot or a circle. Add rows of simple leaves (or triangles) to the outside, and think about something you are growing and easing into fruition.

EXPERIENCING the Tarot PAGE OF MATERIALS

She’s been working on new skills and manifesting her future into being, and she allows us to witness her, mid-manifest. This Page of Materials has thought about what she wants, felt it… dreamed it up and now she’s ready to bring all of that energy to form and give it a shape. She is delighted to share the good news with you – that this earth magick is here for all of us to tap into. These new opportunities and beginnings that are sprouting in your life have so much potential to become beautiful roses that mark triumph and success. Tap into the youthful and prosperous energy that’s available to you right now, and play, learn, study, explore and practice. Keep working your way up, leaf by leaf. Embody and ground this magickal creator energy, and diligently grow into your ideal state of love.


PATHWORKING VISUALIZATION

Imagine the thing you are creating – that goal or that dream – as a photo inside of your head. Watch it play like a movie, small at first, and maybe even in black and white. Watch it play out, see the perfect ending… the beautiful culmination of your creative energy. When you are ready, turn it into colour and imagine it moving from the photo into your 3-D life. Imagine it mid-manifest, as the rose in the Page of Materials, and then blow it up as a life-sized reality and take a moment to live inside of this dream. If you need help manifesting, ask the Page of Materials to share her studies with you. She’s a gifted manifestor and has lots of wisdom to share.


CREATIVE PROMPT

Getting close to the earth. You can do this by ‘earthing’ (going barefoot on the grass!) to root into the deep healing vibrations of mama-Gaia, After feeling into her energetic tendrils, grab your camera and take some close ups of the world you see outside. Capture her textures. Her soils. Grasses. And roots. Her patterns are healing, and often hold within them the secrets of creation. When you get super close to the earth, what do you see?

WORD PROMPT

• The garden of alchemy

EXPERIENCING the Tarot 10 OF MATERIALS

Everyone wins with the material success of the 10 of Materials. This Muse shows up as beauty and abundance in ways that benefit the seeker, the manifestor and the group. She showers down blessings of love and hope through the gifts of nurturing food, vitality and health, financial prosperity and gifts of joy and generosity. She is the Muse of legacy and material things, and she offers windows of wealth that will benefit the whole community for lifetimes of wonder. Here, she has blessed them, and they honour her by eating and dancing together. By stepping into wholeness and compassion. They honour her by making a seat for generosity at their table. They honour her by lifting others up who may not have had the same opportunities or blessings in their lifetime. They honour her, fully, by living in the spirit of abundance, and by trusting this perpetual love. They trust that they are held in this cycle of flow. The diligence and perseverance that they have put into the earth came back to them 3 times over, and so there is ample harvest to share and much more on the way. They sway and sing a tale of gratitude, and for the love of all existences. They sway, knowing that their own individual intentions for the greater good of all lies at the heart of earthly abundance. They become her people. Her creatures. Her love.


PATHWORKING VISUALIZATION

Beautiful creator, put a small plant (or a piece of wood) on the floor and visualize it growing into a giant tree. Dance around that tree and send love and gratitude through its roots, right into the earth. Listen to the tree’s words, and see if the 10 of Materials has a message for you today.


CREATIVE PROMPT

Find a ribbon to symbolize the wish that lies in your heart. Decorate it. Imbue it with your magic. Tie it to a tree and imagine earth wisdom pulsing through your wish to give it to life on earth.

THE 9 OF MATERIALS TAROT MESSAGE

KEYWORDS

self-made success, self-reliance, enjoying time alone, wealth, the fruit of one’s labor, security and comfort, lavishness, contentment, sophistication, status, prosperity

CREATOR MUSING

What is success to you? Your abstract concept of this is based on… a number? Or a feeling? And how will you know when you’ve reached a state of ‘success’? Is it internal or external validation that will announce its arrival?

WORD PROMPT

The brim of joy

EXPERIENCING the Tarot 9 OF MATERIALS

The Muse drops infinite blessings into the situation, and not because she didn’t want to do it earlier, but because the shell –the protective facade– hat the hardworking 9 of Materials had constructed around her has finally dropped away. Her mask faded as soon as she realized that it didn’t truly protect her from any harsh realities of the outside world, and that her own internal light was the only way to the infinite safety and success that she craved. She didn’t need to fake this status, or covet this prosperity. She simply had to step into her garden of creature comforts after doing the work required. She did the work, happily, and now her harvest is here. The Muse smiles, “Dance sweet light, and rejoice in this deserved success. You have discovered this comfort through your own exploration.” The 9 of Pentacles dances like a child, and radiates the contentment of knowing who she is. She radiates with purpose. Vitality. Presence. And with so much love. The world around her responds in tune, and begins to fluctuate and waver, bringing even more of this material essence onto her path. She vibrates her core lessons so very brightly, “Walking in the world as nothing but yourself, and doing things your way, with your heart, will create a funnel for material magic and success.”


PATHWORKING VISUALIZATION

Take a moment to dance like a child. Spin. Jump. Laugh. Draw some 9 of Materials energy down into your core. And then, with your happy heart feeling alive with movement, lie down on the ground and imagine a large beautiful rose opening up in the center of your core. What messages the 9 of Materials has for you about your prosperity and growth?


CREATIVE PROMPT

What does the energy that you radiate from your core look like? If you could see the unseen, and make visible the energy around you, what shape does your energy field have? What patterns does it hold? Doodle them to life.

CREATOR MUSING

Why the rush, sweet creator?

WORD PROMPT

A sacred plateau

EXPERIENCING the Tarot 7 OF MATERIALS

In any journey there are pauses… places to re-think, re-establish and re-direct. Stepping onto her timeline, she waits patiently, ready to reap the rewards she sowed in the past. And she knows they are almost ready. Her gut tells her. Her heart tells her. She knows.
In the lucidity of the pause, she realizes that her lace has come undone. She ties it up slowly, knowing it would have tripped her up in the future had she not taken notice now. She’s grateful. Graceful. Mindful. And she’s moving through the reverberations of yesterday’s thoughts and actions, while sending out tomorrow’s reality with love, energy and intention. She steps into liminal space and puts herself squarely in the present. She knows that this plateau serves as a beautiful break to breathe and take stock. ‘Deep breathe in, you’ve come so far!’ Even though she’s not there yet, her timeline is moving quickly now, even if she can’t see it. It’s time to make another order with the Universe. To evaluate. To assess. And to keep on keepin’ on. Her beautiful roses are coming.


PATHWORKING VISUALIZATION

Step out onto your timeline and into liminal space to see what’s growing. Plant what needs to be planted in its fertile soil. Weed what doesn’t need to be there. Look into the future and see it growing, vibrant with life and abundance.


CREATIVE PROMPT

Draw your trajectory like a line chart of beautiful ups and downs. Make sure the end looks amazing, and put yourself on a plateau today. What do you need to do to get to the destination? Use this chart as a map, as an art piece, as a reminder… as the base of a painting. Know that your plateau is perfectly timed.

Muse Tarot Meanings 6 of Materials

6 OF MATERIALS

— Giving and receiving —

SIX OF MATERIALS (PENTACLES) TAROT CARD MEANING

POETRY AUDIO

MEDITATION AUDIO


THE 6 OF MATERIALS TAROT MESSAGE

KEYWORDS

the flow of abundance, giving and receiving in equal measure, being charitable, generosity, accepting help from others, power and balance, side-stepping a miserly mindset

CREATOR MUSING

Our resources in life are time, money and energy. Which one do you give away freely? Which one do you hold too close? Which do you need to say YES to more often?

WORD PROMPT

May it rain roses

EXPERIENCING the Tarot 6 OF MATERIALS

The Muse whispers, “Sacred mirrors are all around, and when the energy flows in perfect balance, all parties are served, loved, found, helped, seen, appreciated and empowered.” She reminds us that we live in a duplicity that strives to distribute resources (and power!) between the states of having and having-not – and between gifting and being gifted. She shows you that needing to receive and needing to give aren’t all that different, besides your perception of who you think you are when you are standing in either spot. Imbalances of energy can arise from holding on to things too tightly (stagnation) and not being able to hold on to them at all (too fleeting.) And both can stem from a mindset that’s rooted in scarcity. “Give freely… share…. open your gentle generosity, and give of your time, energy and money.” From the simplest kindnesses from strangers that we receive to the most generous of charity we offer, the health of an energetic system takes all of our giving and receiving into account. From a bird’s eye view, the energy should look like a balanced river. You can choose to share or to ask for assistance at this time, as this Muse reminds you that the flow in and the flow out should be consciously created.


PATHWORKING VISUALIZATION

Imagine that you are the roses in this card, flowing in a figure 8 between the two people. One who gifts and one who receives. Notice how the energy rises and bubbles as you continue to flow. Notice how wonderful both people feel.


CREATIVE PROMPT

If you find yourself with the ability to give, write a letter to yourself from a stranger who is being gifted. If you find yourself in a position of need, write a letter to yourself from a stranger who is learning how good it feels to give. Notice how heart-opening both positions are.

safety and security, feelings of being left out or apart, financial difficulties or health struggles, seeking shelter

CREATOR MUSING

How often do you remain outside the door of abundamce because of your own insecurities?

WORD PROMPT

The great hall of love

EXPERIENCING the Tarot 5 OF MATERIALS

The Muse spots her sleeping outside of the gates of flow and abundance. She’s cried herself to sleep, believing that she hasn’t been granted access to this entrance. She is dangerously close to the edge, wrapped in little more than a thinly worn sheet of self-worth and memories of better days. She has been having a hard time, this little spark, and is withering quickly. She holds a tiny light of hope close to her as she sleeps, but it is so very dim that the Muse wonders if she can still see it. It certainly doesn’t look bright enough to light her way into the hall. With a helping hand, the Muse paints bright roses on the entrance to make it more obvious and much easier to find, and she nudges the small creature to safety. The Muse knows that the entrance is closer than her sleeping companion can imagine right now, and hopefully, when she wakes, she will make the choice to enter the doorway of acceptance and well-being, and begin to heal the rift that has grown so wide… between the wealth and health that she desires… and the life that she has wrapped herself up in.

“You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep Spring from coming.” – Pablo Neruda


PATHWORKING VISUALIZATION

Walk into the doorway of safety and comfort. Decide which hall you will take once you are inside, and visit with the Muse of Comfort. She has a gift for you.


CREATIVE PROMPT

Create a doorway to abundance. What does it hold inside? What markings might it have on the outside? Bring feelings of safety, generosity and wealth into your brush or pen as you create this door, and make sure you make yourself a key.
