Greed is borne out of an unanswered emotional or spiritual need

Today we have the 8 of Water reversed from the Dreams of Gaia Tarot. This card is about gratitude and appreciation for the things you have, and reversed it warns that you may be acting entitled.

The card shows a dark-haired man wearing a simple dark blue robe, showing his chakras. His hands are open to the energy of the sea, the moon shines bright and big behind him, and two dolphins jump out to bless him.

True abundance comes from gratitude for what you already have and a healthy sense of what you actually need in your life. When this card shows up reversed, it's a reminder that you may be entitled or greedy, not only for material things but also for other people's time, other people's feelings, and other people's energy.

If this resonates with you, perhaps it's time to slow down, look at what you actually have and see how your needs are probably all already fulfilled. Stop trying to gain something and start giving back: you'll feel better having shared back to people around you.
