the art of allowing

“The ability to establish, grow, extend, and restore trust is the key professional and personal competency of our time.” – Stephen M.R. Covey, the CEO of a CoveyLink Worldwide

Letting go, a querent is practicing the art of "allowing," and it is an intellectual lesson that leaves our querent feeling inspired (Ace of Wands).  But if this querent is letting go of something in a professional community, then the ultimate outcome may be a trap that results in the sacrifice of ambition and drive (Ace of Wands).  If our querent is a manager who solves all the problems and makes all the decisions, then work will definitely be more interesting for them - but less interesting for subordinate employees.  In this situation, success and satisfaction should only be achieved when working hard with equity and in collaboration.

From today until June 10, the Moon is in Taurus, and the grounded nature of this zodiac sign allows you to soothe tensions with colleagues and others in your community.  For the querent who is working to let go of a penchant to micro-manage projects and people, today's tarot card combination is a suggestion to delegate.  Then after our querent delegates tasks, he or she should spend the next workweek intensely focusing on their own to-do list, while developing the genuine trust that their colleagues are also following through with their responsibilities.

This could be such a quieter yet very positive week for our querent and their professional community.  This tarot card combination seems to kick off the summer vibe that settles onto workplaces from June to August, when coworkers may or may not be in the office or online, perhaps because they're taking vacations with family or working half-time while kids are out of school.  It is important for our querent, who is a manager with control over workflow and company culture, to let this next week and perhaps all of June be a time that's summery and spiritually rejuvenating for employees.  Yes, folks need to do their jobs, but let things calm down.  It is not a frantic time of year for many companies, and our querent must accept that.
