So much of our time is preparation, so much is routine, and so much retrospect, that the path of a man’s genius contracts itself to a very few hours. –Ralph Waldo Emerson
Interested in traditional medicine? Folk medicine is seen as alternative, even though it’s older and stores great wisdom. We are going to look at Friday. Once upon a time, days of the week were thought of in relation to their governing planets. Friday is the day of Venus. We think of her as love, and in astrology she governs wealth in ones chart.
Here’s some lore to set yourself up for success: Get up between 4:30 and 5:30 a.m. on Friday, meditate, pray, give thanks to the Goddess Lakshmi to enhance wealth.
In the tarot I equate Lakshmi with the Wheel of Fortune, so putting this into my own language… Do what ever you can to center yourself, clear yourself to be prepared for success and opportunities.
Why this? Who hasn’t had the experience of not being ready for a golden opportunity that has come knocking?
Use Friday, or any other day, just make sure you take time to do it, and clear yourself out. Complete with things and with strong intentions prepare yourself. What’s the saying about luck? Luck favors the prepared. Fortune favors the prepared mind.
Clear your own space with intention by recapping your week. Complete wherever you can. Consider what you want. You are removing anything in your thought process that is in the way of this. Free up for the weekend, and the week ahead. See what needs your attention. Then celebrate successes of the week. It’s all about the celebration.
