The card of apprenticeship, Eight of Pentacles suggests it’s a good time to focus on what you love when it comes to vocation and avocation.
When you do something you are passionate about, you become absorbed in it. So absorbed, in fact, when the money starts rolling in you don’t even notice it.
So many traditions have advised “following your bliss” and not worrying about making a living. It’s a hard concept for people in the Western world, and particularly Americans, to embrace. We have been taught, mostly through Christian churches, that life is about suffering, duty and hard work.
When I started following the teachings of Abraham Hicks (“Ask and It Is Given”) and got turned onto other modern-day philosophers like Neale Donald Walsh (“Conversations With God”), Jack Canfield (“Chicken Soup for the Soul”), Brian L. Weiss (“Many Lives, Many Masters”), Deepak Chopra, Eckhart Tolle (“The Power of Now”) etc., etc., etc., it was hard to believe that life was supposed to be about fun and joy.
I am a work in progress when it comes to embracing this philosophy that rings so true to my soul. I have many years of conditioning to overcome, but I plan to keep practicing until it’s second nature to do what I love.
