Unfinished
A young woman at work.
While packing and moving home and office, I discovered many unfinished projects, which caused me some consternation. I felt guilty for leaving things undone.
I don’t think I am alone in this. When Aces appear in a tarot spread to encourage new projects, many clients hesitate to embrace the encouragement because they have so much still undone.
We can feel unfinished in relationships and situations, too. When we don’t understand why something has changed or when we can’t have our final say, closure can be harder to find. We feel unfinished after a loss. That unsettled feeling is part of grief but can last far longer than the acute pain of recent loss. We mourn what was left unsaid and undone.
Using divination and mediumship to connect with loved ones in spirit, as well as time, prayer, and counseling, can help bring closure.
Unfinished work can bring anxiety, along with other undesirable consequences. Sometimes, we feel anxious about work we think we need to do but don’t.
When my mother became sick and passed away quite suddenly twenty years ago, she left a remarkable number of unfinished craft projects. Poignantly, I remembered that she had jokingly threatened to do exactly that each time she bought a new kit or learned a new craft.
As I considered my own unfinished projects and my recent craft store purchase, I processed some wisdom from my mother. There need be no shame in unfinished projects. Sometimes, something needs to marinate for a while before we can finish it. Sometimes, we need the joy of a new journey or the excitement of an unexpected side quest.
I hope to live a longer life than my mother did, but I also hope that when my time comes, I leave a lot of unfinished projects. Each unfinished project represents hope for the future. Each unfinished project expresses a particular dimension of our knowledge, creativity, and understanding. Each unfinished project is a testament to our faith in our ability to complete it.

The Unfinished Reading
Did you ever have this experience? After reading for someone, a few hours or days later, you think of something else you could have said in the reading that would have added a lot of value.
This doesn’t happen very often to me, thank goodness. When it does, there are two choices. One is to follow up with the person and give the additional information. The other is to decide that the reading was complete as it was; whatever messages were delivered were sufficient.
I have made both choices over the course of my career. Has this happened to you? How do you handle it?

While the Grief Journey Oracle by StaarCon 5 presenter Marion Kirk and artist Teri Cottrell immediately, you still have 24 days to back the project on Kickstarter and be among the first to own this groundbreaking oracle.
Did you know that StaarCon 5 presenter María Alviz Hernando offers Tarot Meanings for Real Life on her website? One of the frustrations of learning to read tarot is allowing the cards to comment on what is actually happening. These card meanings can help!
From back in 2018, here is a great tarot spread from the tarot forum. Here are five cards to help you deal with difficult relatives at Thanksgiving.

Making Magic
Never be afraid to start a new project or leave one unfinished. Incomplete work is a magic spell of intention for the future, and a new project is a magic spell of initiation.
When we think of the energy that surrounds even our most mundane tasks, we can infuse them with a bit of magic. When we consider the mundane things in our lives, we can almost always find magic within them.
