Meaning

At the start of a reading it indicates that we have everything in potential…

To choose what we want or to choose nothing. Life is a choice: Do I love or not love? Do I live or not live? Do I believe or not believe? Do I think or not think? Reasoning is quick, there is no lack of talent or cleverness — there is only action left to take.

Questions to reflect on

  • What are my values and options?
  • What must I choose and what must I eliminate?
  • What am I beginning?
  • Who am I deceiving?
  • What do I do well and find easy to do?
  • What am I starting?
  • If I had a magic wand… What would I do, how would it be, what would I have?
  • What am I choosing?
  • What are my potential possibilities?
  • How could I put my talents to work toward my goal?
  • What are my objectives?
  • Where do I want to go and why?
  • If I knew by some magic that everything I did in the next 4 weeks would go well, what would I do?
  • What would I do if I could not fail?
  • What are my expectations here?
  • What are my skills and talents?
  • Where and how do I pay attention?
