Angel Paths for August 2 - Two of Disks

The Two of
Disks
The Lord of Change is a card that indicates the
necessity of constant change in life if we are
not to stagnate. It often marks a turning point
- a new job, a shift of fortune, a move of home.
Disks are an earthy suit, covering matters of
material life, and the manifest Universe. If you
look at the planet we live on, though in itself
it seems solid and predictable (less so in
recent years, mind you) it is in a constant
state of change and movement. It turns in space,
and if it did not, we'd all be very unhappy with
the consequences. The cycle of seasons swings
past us each and every year. The tides ebb and
rise. Constant change is natural, normal and
positive.
We do, though, often fear change in our lives.
We will struggle against anything that appears
to alter the pre-planned pattern we have applied
to our future. But that's exactly what this card
does - instigates change. Sometimes we think
that the change is bad - and on the face of it,
it may appear to be - yet whenever the 2 of
Disks appears, it's warning us that change has
become imperative. Something is stagnating,
demanding to be broken down and made over.
It's worth remembering that if you resist the
change advocated by the Lord of Change, you
might find that life imposes it upon you anyway
- and then you'll feel the effects either of the
Death card, or the Tower. When this card
appears, it demands a thorough re-assessment of
your overall position and willingness to go with
the chances that come your way.
The card is
especially strengthened by cards like Fortune,
and positive Disks and Wands. You can usually
track down which area of life it applies to by
looking at the cards that surround it - Cups
would suggest you need to look at your emotional
life. Disks would imply that it's either your
working or financial area that needs attention.
Swords would probably indicate conflict around
whatever changes you need to make, and may point
to a need for clear communication. Wands would
be more connected with your own application of
Will, and the way you are trying to build your
life. Major Arcana cards would suggest an inner,
more spiritual area needs to be looked at.
Working with the Two of Disks
The Lord of Change brings in a necessary breath
of fresh air to sweep away stagnation, and brush
the dust off the things we need to get done.
Everything is constantly changing around us.
My favourite example of change is the
sky......so on a day ruled by the Lord of
Change, go and watch the sky. Look at the way it
alters in every single moment. Never for more
than a few seconds does it create the same
pattern.
This is a revelation of the inner you.......
constantly changing, growing, expanding,
altering. Your body cells change in every living
second. Your thoughts flash faster than computer
messages. Your memory stores a vast wealth of
information, and is steadily adding more and
more. This day that you now experience will
never come again....tomorrow will be different,
because you are.
Some people are afraid of change and alternation
in life..... Some people spend too much energy
trying to keep things the same...... But you
would not consider fixing the sky in any one
final pattern would you? So.....don't do it to
yourself. Allow excitement and joy to run
alongside change in your life.....and you will
get so much more out of everything.
Affirmation: I celebrate my growth and power.
