Card 20 - 6 of Fire: "SELF-RELIANCE"

"No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourself"---Ralph Waldo Emerson

From the smoke of the cleansing fire arises much intuitive protection from within.  Worry not, for continual expanding movement is possible now.        

Pictured in the tarot is a man working manually, stoking the fire of a giant furnace, this has been his job for a long time and he is used to it.  The men looking into his inferno  admire his ability to work at this job for as long as he has, never faltering, never taking a sick day.  His consistency is one of the rare gifts in life, and though he is not egotistical, he is proud in his accomplishments.

INTERPRETATION:  Success is possible through honouring the inherent intuition within you.  Listen to your inner voice.  Your passion for doing something is quite high now so whenever you begin a new project now, you will be able to take care of everything all by yourself.  You do not need to do it all yourself, but you could if you wanted to.

The sixes in any of the suits represent the state of being self-reliant and self-inspired  
·     In 6 of earth the “Discrimination” tarot represents a state where you will have to make it yourself, whatever it is
·     In 6 of fire the “Self-Reliance” tarot represents a state where you will have to be self-inspired and self-motivated
·     In 6 of water the “Recollection” tarot represents a time when you will have to rely on your memories and intuition
·     In 6 of air the “Connections” tarot represents a time where you will have to be the hub of communications and networking will be important to you now
