Exemplore: Gibil: The Sumerian God of Fire
JENNIFER WILBERJUL 10, 2023
Gibil is the ancient Sumerian god of fire and light. As a god of fire, he was both feared for the destructive power of fire as well as praised for its benefits to civilization. He was the oppressive heat of the desert in Mesopotamian summer, as well as the creative spark of the fires used by potters in their kilns, bakers in the ovens, and metallurgists in their forges.

Inner Journey:
REVIEW AND RECOMMIT
“Few people have any next, they live from hand to mouth without a plan, and are always at the end of their line.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
Just think: When we are driving, we know where we want to go and we plot out our route. When we plan and prepare a meal, we follow a recipe and monitor the food as it cooks.
How much attention do we give to planning the direction of our lives?
Taking the time to review our quality of life gives us a chance to re-evaluate what we are doing and where we want to go. It lets us fine-tune our direction, to ensure we are on track for what we most want.
Stop and think about your last 6 months. What did you learn? What would you like to do differently? Where do you want to recommit?
“Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed up.”
— A. A. Milne
“Always have a plan, and believe in it. Nothing happens by accident.”
— Chuck Knox

Today’s Tarot: Wednesday: The Emperor
Apply your basic practical good sense to the biggest and most serious of challenges and watch the problems wilt under your gaze. There’s nothing you can’t handle today if you can keep things uncomplicated and straightforward. Be calm but firm in your dealings and don’t allow others to add their petty complications to any of your efforts. Remember to be good to yourself.
Today’s Tarot Thursday: The Sun
Little or nothing will slow you down or be daunting to you today. You have so much inner strength, and physical strength, too, that people will have trouble keeping up with you. Do something special today, or perhaps excel at something significant and challenging that will be easily within your grasp. You may find out later that you were dazzling and that you inspired several people to more energetically pursue their passions.
