2 of Inspiration

I’m in Nice now. It’s the second leg on my list of destinations on this grand sojourn and adventure. It’s a lovely city on the coast, full of Mediterranean influences and I’m loving every minute of it!

I have to mention here that all of the tarot readings I have heard for the past few months, since I started my planning, have all talked about travel and exploration coming my way.

So, tomorrow I’m renting a car and driving to St Tropez, with stops along the way. There had been some hesitation in thinking about the logistics of signage in a foreign language, knowing the rules of the road, how do I pay tolls, etc. and for a moment I thought that I should change my plans and not drive on my own. But as I settled into learn what I need to for tomorrow I also drew a card from my Muse Tarot deck and it’s the 2 of Inspiration.

Each card in the deck includes a few keywords relating to the message of the card. In this case the keywords are: seeking new paths for yourself, moving past your comfort zone, desiring new experiences, travel and adventure, a heart full of ideas and a thirst for expression.
The keywords alone were a real profound message to me, but the card also goes on to say: This muse reminds you to grab your bags, your tickets, your trinkets and your talismans (mine is a carved bone necklace from Maui that I wear most days…), and step into the unseen. Taking this step will forever change your trajectory and if you want to move in the direction of your dreams, you must actively do so. Your extraordinary life requires extraordinary choices.

I don’t know where this step will take me, but I am making an extraordinary choice and tomorrow I will put my reluctance to the side and step out on my adventure to becoming Cece.
