Happy Wednesday, everyone! This card reminds us that we need to remember to celebrate our connection with one another from time to time, not just the markers in our life. Yes, we must work hard to achieve dreams, we must also remember to embrace and enjoy our life and others in it.
Four of Bows – Celebration
Meaning: A celebration of health, wealth, and security and a time to relax and enjoy the bounty of good fortune or labor. A holiday or festival at a time of plentiful fertility and creativity.
Reading Points: While focus, effort, and dedication are inherent in the mastery of any skill that requires patience and practice, a time for relaxation and thankful celebration is also valuable. *Without the timely and earned reward of indulgence, pleasure, and friendship, we become detached and isolated from those with whom we share a kinship and a common moral code and bond.* To be able to relax and share in the bounty is part of the human spirit’s healing process and is how we refreshened nourish the soul.
Whether the celebration is a traditional festival or the marking of a personal achievement, to allow the empowering energy of carefree celebration and laughter to revitalize our resolve and rekindle our desire is a gift from which reflection on the beauty, generosity, and natural wonder becomes available. To share and exchange the bounty of good fortune with those we love and respect is the most rewarding celebration in which we can indulge ourselves.
