“What happens when last week’s Seven of Cups becomes the Eight of Cups?” This is the question posed by Sarah Taylor for this week’s tarot reading. The short answer: a much-needed change in perspective; the invitation to transformation. Read on for more.

In this week’s reading, Sarah Taylor explores The Devil card, and suggests that it may not be what you think it is. In fact, having come so far — and knowing what you do — The Devil, and the two cards that flank it, may hold the key to your liberation.

Wherever it is in your life that you are holding back because your feelings are an inconvenience; or you are complying to some outward expectation of femininity, sexuality, sensuality; where you play down your intuitive abilities, your beauty (inner and outer), your shine, your razor-of-light-sharp knowingness: this reading is the call back to nurturance of self and others, and the marriage between body and mind.

After a significant period of hard work and learning, you’re finally seeing the possibility of tangible results from your efforts. But how to make the best of them? Sarah Taylor explores the three cards in today’s reading, and points out that the resources that are going to help you the most are the ones that reside in your formidable mind.

With a card embodying youthful exuberance, and an Ace — both bringing you towards a culmination in your material world — this week’s reading has at its core an invitation: “Open your heart.”

“You, who rushes everywhere: Where is your pace? Where is your calm? Where is your faith that you are in sync with what is? Where have you felt you didn’t belong, and what is it that is calling to you that tells you that you do, indeed, have a place?” This week’s reading offers some questions to help you connect with the significant inner resources available to you – ones that are mature, wise, and sure of their place in all things.

Sarah Taylor notes how this reading describes complications you’ve experienced when you step into the complexity of interrelatedness; you now understand the wholeness that comes from that, as paradoxical as it may seem. You’d been working behind the scenes from yourself, contemplating the matter of love and what it actually means (it’s not like the movies).
