Magical Nature Tarot

Guiding words/ideas:

Preparation for action; make note of what is needed; preparation can be physical and metaphysical; include grounding practices; without grounding, action may lack wisdom, power, alignment and the correct pace; enjoy this process of preparation.

Channeled guidance:

The Two of Wands is about preparation for action—the necessary step or steps that must come before one forges ahead.

There are many ways to prepare, and the steps one must take depend greatly on the intended action. Be forewarned; it is entirely possible that growth may occur during this preparation, and this may change the intended action. In fact, most of human life is preparation. So think about what it is you would like to do and make note of what is needed. 

It is helpful when deciding how to prepare to be in an open state of mind and/or a dreamlike state of mind. Preparation has many levels: physical and metaphysical, and all the landing spots in between.

In this card, you see a human in the practice of meditation. There are many forms of meditation, and we do not know what the workings of this human’s mind are in this moment. But we can see that they appear to be peaceful and grounded. One hand faces upwards with an orb made from copper oxide, magnifying the energy and drawing energy in. The other hand is resting on their knee, grounding energy into their body and then through the body down into the earth. It is wise to have, in the list of preparation needed, some practice that allows for grounding. Without grounding, the intended actions may lack wisdom, power, alignment, and the correct pace.

Enjoy this process of preparation. Let it nourish you and allow for the expansion and elevation of your being.

Plant and metal guidance:

Black walnut (brown skin of human and upper wand): The strength of our magic lies in our ability to clear space and provide opportunities for recharging and resetting.

Goldenrod (yellow shirt): Our tiny, golden, blossoms create needed halos around fields and open spaces. You can allow our energy to bring divine energy to your open spaces as well, to rest in your auras and to bring you light and hope.

Wild grape (purple pants): We are the bubbly magicians of the edges (of forests, our fields and our minds). We share with you our positivity, creativity and trickster capabilities.

Copper oxide (light blue orb and bracelet): I magnify the properties of whatever plants I touch or impact.

Acorn cap (light brown/grey floor and lower wand): Like a gentle pat on the head, we offer up slow-moving energy to open the senses and awaken the mind.
