7. Coming of Fall

Still time to harvest, last push, preparation for success

Let the spark of hope within you ignite and never cease, for it is never too late to manifest your dreams.

Lammas marks the first of three harvests together with Mabon and Samhain. While summer is beginning to wane and with it the growing season, there is still plenty of time to plant, nourish and grow fruits and vegetables to take you well into autumn. You have pulled this card because all is not lost and you can work towards your goals with enough time to see them come to fruition. Even if you have not been successful up to this point, there is still time to turn things around and use your past experiences to your advantage. This is your second chance, your moment to say 'Yes!' even when you want to throw in the towel.

Receiving this card is your confirmation that it's not too late. Your age, level of experience or the breadth of your mistakes are not reasons to wither away without experiencing the joy of seeing your desires manifested. Whether you’d like to start a new business or breathe life into an existing one, entertain a second career or embrace a fresh relationship there is still so much in you to give. Ultimately, this card is your soul’s plea not to give up, because you’re almost there.

Journaling is a powerful tool that can help you gain insight into why things have gone wrong in the past, identify patterns and learn from your mistakes so you can make better decisions in the future. Journaling is a great way to gain clarity and develop self-awareness, as the more honest and open you can be with yourself the greater insight and understanding you will gain. Consider these journaling prompts:

* What factors contributed to it going wrong? * What steps can you take to prevent similar mistakes in the future? * What skills or resources do you need to help you move forward? * What resources do you have at your disposal? * What insight and understanding can you gain from this experience? * How will you use this experience to grow and become a better version of yourself?
