Card of the Day 7/7/08

I remember when 7/7/07 was considered either lucky or lucky depending on your spiritual point of view. People used that as a lottery number hoping for a win. I don't recall any big jack pots, however.
So what does Tarot have in store for today, 7/7/08?
Seven is a number signifying mastery and control. The irony here is that to gain true mastery, one needs to let go of the need to control and thus gain Enlightenment. So true, yet so difficult. The Empress is showing us the way to meditate on that delicate balance of control and Enlightenment. She suggests we think of our projects and work as children or young plants that need nurturing , but not smothering. Too much water kills a plant, too. Tend your issues with a mom's eye view. Watch over special needs to day , but not so much as to allow your self to be obsessed. A good mom knows when to back off.
Make some cookies, too, while you're at it. If my sister in law is reading this, my brother will love me.
