Eight of Swords…

I feel like this card is stalking us. It just keeps repeating and I always stress the importance of repeat cards, so we must examine it closer. Last time this card wanted us to connect with our personal power. Have you done this? I will say, it feels like I try, but with all the sudden movement in life, it’s difficult to stay grounded. If you are suddenly trapped by thoughts - your own and the thoughts of others - how might you find your way out? This is the big question, I suppose. Reimagine yourself as a great Escape Artist - let your senses heighten, intensify your focus, slow your breath and concentrate. There is a way to slip away from this cage of expectations. You have the answer - you just need to connect with it. Are you actually trapped or do you have something bigger up your sleeve? Surprise yourself - surprise everyone.
