“You’re not in touch with your inner badassery.” –Me to Client
This Queen of Wands was the card that convinced me, I had to have this deck. Powerful, regal and strong, she sits amidst sunflowers clutching her friendly familiar, a lovely (and obviously spoiled) black cat. She brings a nice riff off of yesterday’s theme; you don’t control the outside world, but you do control YOU.
This queen tells us we are stronger than we think. Access it by remembering that courage does not equate with lack of fear. Doing that which you are comfortable with doing is not a big deal. It may be the right thing and all, but it’s not so notable in terms of bravery. On the other hand, it takes a LOT of courage to feel fear but do what you need to do anyway. See? Bravery comes from facing up. I don’t care if the facing up includes a little kicking and screaming. Just as long as you get the job done.
If you focus on the task at hand (and then retreat to break down in private later), if you forged ahead feeling terrified inside, or if you’ve stood strong when feeling anything but strong because that’s what’s required, you have tapped into this lady’s power.
She is forceful and yes, she is strong. Please don’t confuse her strength with lack of fear or lack of caring. That’s her secret, actually: her passion gives her the juice, the creative energy to BE strong. Her spirit is made up of fire—hot, intense feelings. In being true to herself, she makes tough choices and forges ahead, thus lighting the way for those who would follow her.
To sum it up: Finding things hard does NOT prove weakness. Facing it proves strength. Walking through the pain builds muscles. Acknowledge the effort to get in touch with your inner badassery.
Do you have an inner badass?

What was it we were saying before about Saturn and kicking ass? I’ve got a Saturn-heavy chart; I’m not so sure my badass is inner, though. I tend to put it right on out there. *laughing*
Even better. I love when people are in touch with their badassery!!
This is my queen; I get her a lot!
