FROM THE EDITORWelcome to October, an industrious month, a time to seek stability and a sense of rhythm in our lives. Considering all of the natural disasters that have sent society into a tizzy, it is time for all of us to plant our feet firmly on the ground and take stock of our inner and outer lives. It is also time to wish a very Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian peers, and Blessed Yom Kippur! This energy brings to mind the tarot minor Arcana card: THE FOUR OF SWORDS.

The Four of Swords The Four of Swords, like all of the fours, represents order and stability. It shows an immediate respite from problems and concerns, at least temporarily. It heralds a time for rest and recovery, of retreating to a place of seclusion, to free ourselves from the stress and tensions of the world. This card also signifies recovery from illness, finding a sense of peace, and learning to relax the body, mind, and spirit. On the mental front, the Four of Swords teaches us to contemplate our lives and progress in order to widen our worldview and perspective. We need to listen to that still small voice within that gently guides us along our soul path. We sometimes need to stand back from a situation and objectively examine the forces, motivations, and events that have shaped our lives thus far. We need to engage in a thorough self review and take stock of our current position in life. This card also guides us to achieve holistic equilibrium and stability, to prepare ourselves for the future, and to come to terms with ourselves and the events that swirl around us. We need to connect with the forces of nature to ground ourselves in reality, keeping an eye to the heavens all the while.KEYWORDS: Rest *** Withdrawal *** Healing
