Adding a new word Troika* to title ( in Rus. means ‘set of three’, also – the horses prancing together as one pulling a sled…)  feels for me with more flow of energy and clarity.

 At summer it’s easier to get enlightened observing nature, its loving ways to balance any conflicts. August remind us about the transience of time, soon coming fall, new school year, and (keep finger crossed) the end of construction season. Also it’s the time of harvesting for gardeners.

 Today I intuitively pull three Tarot cards: 2 of pentacles, 10 of swords and 8 of wands.

Just looking at numerological aspect of cards (2+10+8=20=2+0=2) we can notice – the number resonates with duality, partnership and choice.

Indeed, humans always have the choices, and the preferred one – more often the easy one, less resistance required…

Challenges

Following our rational mind/ego, we shut out our inner voice/intuition, losing the connection with real desires, until our body let us know about an issue in a hard way, presenting with the illness…

 Suggested actions

But by choosing more challenging path we grow at all aspects of our existence: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.So, it’s the best to focus on our energy in now, don’t block it, let be in its flow leaving distant goals for later.

Our challenges – our lessons.  And how else we can succeed?

”Success means doing the best we can with what we have. Success is the doing, not the getting; in the trying, not the triumph. Success is a personal standard, reaching for the highest that is in us, becoming all that we can be.” ~ Zig Ziglar
