What Tarot Card are You?

I am an Empress! I must say this is hardly surprising ;-)

You are The Empress

Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.

The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents,
beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home
decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.

The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.

Lesson 2b: My WHY, & uncovering more Values

(The following is one of my journal entries at the New Order Business School. As part of my scholarship, I agreed to keep a success journal of my progress through the course for all to see!)

Upon reconnecting with my business visualization from Lesson 1…

WHY is it important to me that I achieve this?

Because I am connected with my passions, and every day that I go to “work” I feel that I am fulfilling my life mission and exercising my Divine Right of Creation.

How will I FEEL when I make this real?

Content, fulfilled, peaceful & grounded, uplifted, joyous, inspired, excited, grateful, abundant, healthy, balanced, blissful and filled with awe.

Why am I committed to do so?

  • Because my life demands that I live on purpose (inspiring others to live magickal joy-filled lives).
  • Whenever I do this I feel blissful, serene, awe-inspired, and connected to my source.
  • Whenever I don’t do this I feel bad, like I’m wasting my time at worst, and at best ’spinning my wheels’ while procrastinating, waiting, and dreaming of when I’ll “someday” have the guts and determination to live my life on purpose.
  • In short- doing this feels like Bliss, and not doing it feels like crap!

“MY WHY”

Why have I created my entrepreneurial dream?

All of my experiences in life so far have taught me that having an average J.O.B. while working for others (and letting their dreams and goals dictate what I do day in, day out) is NOT conducive to making me feel fulfilled or living my life on purpose, which is very important to me.

The only exception to this was when, for a short time a few years ago, I occasionally helped out Leela (CEO of Metier Media) in the Office of ‘Spheres: The Spirit Guide’ magazine. While working here:

  • I was Inspired and Inspiring.
  • Surrounded by my favorite spiritual books (which the magazine was selling)
  • My job involved Writing, which is one of my major passions.
  • I got to work alongside some of the best and well-known mentors in the industry.
  • I had the opportunity to contact and work with some of my favorite, best-selling authors and spiritual teachers from around the world.
  • I even got to have a creative say in the development of their new “SpellCraft” magazine.
  • Most importantly, not only was I doing work that I enjoyed, but I felt the bliss that comes from sharing my talents and Inspiring others.
  • When readers of “Spheres” began sending me letters, I was given my own, regular column in the magazine, and soon after, I became contributing author for the “Spheres Angel Wishing Kit”.

My entrepreneurial dream involves directly working with my favorite “magick books” (as I like to call them), books, CD’s, and DVD’s by the best spiritual authors, as well as creating my own online publication, all while I write my own Book. I currently believe that the business in this vision is the perfect platform for me to Live my Bliss, Inspire others, and help to improve countless lives (including my own) while I’m at it.

So that’s why! :-)

No BS Lesson 2a: What I Want & What I’m trying to Avoid

(The following is one of my journal entries at the New Order Business School. As part of my scholarship, I agreed to keep a success journal of my progress through the course for all to see!)

I really enjoyed Lesson 2 of the ‘Getting Started’ course. Everytime I do an exercise in which I have to connect with my dream, I feel closer to achieving it :-)

What would make me very happy:

(ASAP…)

  • I no longer have to attend my day job. Somehow, from somewhere, in perfect timing & order, Scott and I have received enough money and resources, so that every day I can focus on creating my brilliant business.
  • I am becoming more disciplined in my daily Yoga practice. I am increasing in health and in strength every day.

(Within the next 2 months…)

  • The move into our house (in August) goes smoothly and easily. The new house is perfect for us.
  • We have successfully and easily manifested a fridge, washing machine, new couch, and maybe even a television.
  • My new home office is set up, and even includes a laser printer and scanner/ photocopier.
  • My business successfully “opens its (virtual) doors” in August, just after our move. I already have an abundance of customers within the first week, and with operations going smoothly, I am now able to focus more on marketing, P.R., and getting the word out online.

(Within the next 6 months…)

  • My business is growing so successfully that I am now able to hire a part time assistant to help with the running and maintaining of the business.

(Within the next year ~and a half…)

  • My business is so successful that I am now able to hire one or two full time assistants to help with the running and maintaining of the business.
  • Scott and I are receiving enough extra income to allow us to start renovating our house!
  • Scott and I are getting married, and can afford to get our relatives together for a mighty shindig celebration. We can even afford to go on a honeymoon somewhere nice (which by the way would be our first “proper” holiday away together).

 

What will I do almost anything to avoid:

  • Being broke, and in this position of being scared of not having enough money.
  • Getting stuck in a J.O.B. (what Robert Kiyosaki calls “Just Over Broke”) and stuck in a position where I’m not fulfilling my passions or working toward my dreams.
  • Feeling like I’m wasting my life by not living on purpose.
  • Sharehouse Living again (with anyone other than my sweetheart)
  • Apartment Living (unless it’s new so it doesn’t flare my allergies, has plenty of space, and quiet neighbors)
  • Getting Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ M.E. or Depression again.

No BS Lesson 1: Self Analysis & Duct Tape

(The following is one of my journal entries at the New Order Business School. As part of my scholarship, I agreed to keep a success journal of my progress for all to see!)

Well I’ve never had a business lesson which involved duct tape before. For a while there I was kind of wondering what I’d gotten myself involved in! hehe. But anyway, here goes…

According to this self analysis thingy, “You are in touch with your dreams and have a great deal going for you. (Well Duh!) The course is probably all you need to begin pulling it all together to make those dreams come true”. (Hooray!)

Here is the breakdown of my current totals from the assessment:

  • Dreaming: 7/7
  • Planning: 6/7
  • Resources: 2/7 (Gulp!)
  • Personal Vision: 5/5
  • Status Quo: 4/5 (not entirely sure what this means?)

My Business 1 Year from Today
Today is the 25th June 2009, and my business is booming! I am in my new home office, in our recently renovated home, consulting with my support team (yes- the business has grown so much that I have had to employ staff to cope with the high demand for our services!) Together we are discussing last minute preparations for the company’s first trade-show experience, this weekend when we are exhibiting at the Mind Body Spirit Festival. We are well on our way to becoming the number one, most popular holistic/ new age store on the Internet, and our free Magazine has one of the largest subscriber bases for its kind in Australia (over 20,000) and is taking off Internationally as well as we expand into the American Market. At least one of our team members is a well-known, best-selling author and speaker. Each of us absolutely loves the work that we are doing together, and we are grateful that so many blessings are coming out of it, and that together, we are making a positive impact on thousands of lives around the world.

Some Currently recognised Self Quotes

  • “It’ll probably take me a while before I can get started”
  • “It’ll probably take ages before I actually make any money” (-I realised the only reason I say that is because that is the limiting expectation they taught us at university!… But they obviously weren’t thinking of some of the newer Internet businesses when they taught us that!)

New Self- Quotes Re-Written (Affirmations!)

  • “I am Decisive, Focused, and Creative. I have all the resources I need to get my business up and running within the next month”
  • “I am a super-savvy and highly creative business woman and marketing guru-ess. I am preparing to make a fortune through my business within the first year of operations. My business is growing so fast that I will be more than able to replace my current job income within the next two to three months”

P.S. I was a good girl and didn’t require any duct tape this time hehe
