Creative birth

Hi

In Tarot different cards have different meanings.

For example, the meaning of Ace of Wands is: A creative birth, starting a new path, new opportunity, new ideas.

Three of Wands: Temporary but correct use of time, learn by watching others, lasting success in business, short journeys.

Four of Wands: A settled home, job, stability, peace, valuable relationships.

1. What does "a creative birth" mean/refer to? I have no idea.

2. Does it mean that only for some time I use my time correctly and mostly I probably do not do it?

3. "A settled home"???
  

Top answer

"creative birth" appears to mean the birth (start) of a period of creativity. "temporary but correct use of time" is odd and hard to understand. "a settled home" means a stable life at home (especially one shared with one's family).

Hi Mr W!

But don't you think that my interpretation could be possible?

Temporary but correct use of time.Maybe it just means that I'm starting to use my time correctly, however, it's not a lasting change, only temporary.

I don't see it in quite the way that you originally expressed it. In the pattern "A but B", where A can be construed negatively and B positively, the emphasis is normally on the positive aspect. So, the emphasis here is on the correct use of time, albeit that this situation is non-per

Mr Wordy it could refer to using one's time 'correctly' (i.e. profitably, or in a worthwhile way) for a limited period of time
That's what I was trying to say. Cheers.
