For the past few weeks, I’ve really revitalized my love for Techno, Trance and Drum n Bass music. I’ve loved it since high school – it felt like a genre of music that was mine- meaning that it felt like the kind of music that really suited me. Lately I’ve found myself purchasing several mix CDs of popular dance music.

Today I drew the Ace of Pentacles as my card of the day and the card “Mermaid Dreams” from the Enchanted Oracle (review forthcoming). “Mermaid Dreams” means “listen to your intuition and follow your dreams”.

Then on the way to work, the DJ on the morning show was talking about how she went out with a “real” DJ and went to his show last night. It hit me like a jolt of lightening – I should take up DJing. Turntables, albums, the like. Seems like the cards were referring to this revelation! I’ve seen real DJers in action – no computers, just turntables and their hands – and I was amazed. I’ve wanted a turntable for a while but it seemed to be the kind of thing I’d say I wish I could do. Today, I felt the calling and begun to research a little about DJing. I’ve already picked a DJ name, but I’ll save it until I really get going

Horseshoe Reading: Tell me about becoming a DJ.

Past: 4 of Cups – Seems like opportunity has knocked at my door, but I failed to acknowledge it.

Present: The Chariot – I’m raring to go (still very much in a Chariot year – it comes up for me often)

Hidden Influences: The Fool – Naivete, optimism. Looks like I’ve got a lot to learn before and after taking the leap!

Obstacles: The Star – Seems to warn me into the trap of wishing and hoping, but not doing.

Environment: Ace of Swords – My environment is conducive to new ideas and beginnings.

Best Course of Action: 5 of Swords – This is the most surprising card. In this context, it seems that if I’m serious about this endeavor I’m going to need to get serious and allocate more time and effort into this hobby, possibly at the sacrifice of other less important things.

Probable Outcome: 3 of Wands – The project is initiated, but other elements are needed for success. I can’t rush it, things will come when they’re supposed to. Meanwhile I need to make sure I’m personally ready to meet that success. The groundwork is laid and I can see my goal.
