Hi there!
I hope your week's been going well; I've been up in Boulder, Colorado this week. The town's a lot smaller and a lot flatter than I had expected -- it's right at the foot of the Rockies. The mountains rise up from the rear of the town, but the town itself is on a fairly flat plain.
I confess I drove by the Ramsey house -- it's a lot different from what I expected as well. It's about 4 or 5 blocks from the University of Colorado campus. The neighborhood is about what you would expect from a campus neighborhood; lots of smaller older houses for student housing and a handful of larger older ones for professors and university administrators. The yards aren't very large; it's certainly not the "mansion" described in the press.
Had to go into Denver yesterday for a "half hour" meeting with our sales folks. I hate meeting with sales folks -- they always take way to much time to do way too little. First off, they were 2 hours late to the meeting. Next, you couldn't have a conversation longer than 45 seconds before their cell phones would ring. Next, any slightest distraction would send them off on a half-hour tangent talking about golf and nights spent partying. We had about 15 minutes of of real work we needed to do. By 5:00 pm (I had been there since 10:00 am), we still hadn't finished up. They had planned a night of fancy restaurants and night clubs where we would finish -- I said "No thanks, see you later", and drove back up to Boulder (through Denver 5:00 rush hour traffic!) where I finished my part in about 5 minutes and then went to bed!
How about some quick words from my sponsors, then on to the reading!

We'll again pull two cards -- the first suggests something we should focus on for the week. The second suggests things we might consider in order to fully benefit from the attributes of the first card.
The cards are:
Knight of Pentacles
Five of Cups
The Knight of Pentacles is a real-world card; he's steadfast and stubborn. He doesn't rely on fancy schemes or tricks to achieve his goal; he just plods straight ahead and works hard to get where he wants to be. I've always said that if he played football, he'd be a lineman, not a quarterback.
One thing to consider about this knight -- sometimes he tends to have blinders on. Because he's so focused on the goal in front of him, he may not notice other opportunities or quicker resolutions available to him. It's important not to let the extreme attributes of this card dominate your performance.
When we look at our second card, the Five of Cups, we get a slight hint that this might be our focus. The Five of Cups is often considered a "sad" card -- it usually refers to a sense of loss, or a sense of change - where you may long for what has passed. Along with the “sad” message is a “glad” message also - while you may no longer have some things, you still have other fine assets. Often, the tendency is to emphasize what is missing - when what you might try to do is emphasize what is remaining.
This tendancy to focus on what's unavailable makes it likely you'll miss what is available. Just as the Knight of Pentacles doesn't see resources around him, the Five of Cups also misses these available resources.
We might want to be wary of situations where we feel we just don't have the tools or assets we need to accomplish whatever task we're engaging. In these cases, take a moment to look around and reconsider your plan. It just may be that there are available resources that you've missed because you've been so focused on your goal.
And that's about it this week; I look forward to seeing you again next week. As always, if you're interested in a private reading, please try my sponsors above or my list of readers at http://www.woodsongtarot.com/readers.html . I also welcome your comments at http://woodsongtarot.blogspot.com !

Take a Fresh Look
I hope your week's begun well; things have been pretty hectic around here lately. I'm sorry I'm so late on the readings -- but things have finally settled down just a tiny bit!
The company I work for went through one of it's regular "re-invent the way we do things" recently. They so this every couple of years -- spend hundreds of thousands of dollars flying consultants and employees all over the place, giving us pep talks and seminars demonstrating the new way we're going to operate. Then ... everyone ignores all of it and does what we've always been doing. Big waste of time and money.
Anyway, in the bustle I ended up with a new supervisor. Instead of sending me out once a week on a trip, the new guy's been sending me out three or four times a week! Been having to leave home on Sunday, come home on Saturday. The main problem is packing for several different visits in a week. Not so bad now, but once winter gets here, it's tough to pack for both cold and warm weather! Also, since the toothpaste morons struck, airplane travel's been even more of a bear.
The routine's rough, but the readings have suffered the most. I'm going to try and adjust my travel so that I've always got a free half-day somewhere in the beginning of the week -- keep your fingers crossed!
How about some quick words from my sponsors, then on to the reading!

We'll again pull two cards -- the first suggests something we should focus on for the week. The second suggests things we might consider in order to fully benefit from the attributes of the first card.
The cards are:
The Hanged Man (Reversed)
Six of Wands
I like looking at the Hanged Man as suggesting we try and take a different perspective or read on a situation. Quite often, our "programming" kicks in and we don't even think about how we react -- we just go ahead and react in the way we're accustomed to doing. When I see the Hanged Man, I like to take a step back and pretend this is the very first time I've ever faced this sort of situation. Trying real hard not to let my normal orientations slip in, I'll look at all the factors as if it's the first time I've ever seen them. I'll spend time on factors that I'd normally ignore -- and normally will find that there are new considerations that I've never realized.
The reversal points out to us that this isn't easy to do -- we have a lifetime of experience that leads us to react to situations the way we do. The Hanged Man suggests we don't lean quite as heavily on this experience -- and we might find we'll learn something new.
Our second card helps us think of areas where we might try this new method of evaluation. The Six of Wands reminds us that life is a journey of many small steps. We often find obstacles we must overcome when we take these steps. Sometimes, just knowing there are many new obstacles we must yet face can make us discouraged.
The Six of Wands tells us we shouldn't concentrate on what's coming up -- but should instead take comfort because of the last step we overcame. Enjoy the encounters you succeed in -- you deserve to feel good about them. Knowing there are new encounters ahead of us should not change this -- we'll face those another day.
When we put these two cards together, we might wonder if the Hanged Man is suggesting the danger of feeling discouraged because of what we have yet to face instead of feeling good about what we have accomplished so far. If so, then take his advice and switch your perspective! Feel good about where you are and how you got there. Consider the fact that you've successfully reached this point suggests that you'll be successful in overcoming the next step you'll face -- and the next, and the next, and the next, ...
And that's about it this week; I look forward to seeing you again next week. As always, if you're interested in a private reading, please try my sponsors above or my list of readers at http://www.woodsongtarot.com/readers.html . I also welcome your comments at http://woodsongtarot.blogspot.com !
