The number 3 symbolizes the generative force, creative power, multiplicity, and forward movement.  They are about planning and preparing, putting the details into place before beginning the work.  Wands are usually associated with the element of fire, inspiration, energy, passion, feeling, enterprise, ambition, matters pertaining to the "spark of life".  They can refer to the growth and awareness of the self.  Wands are focused on discovering your true self, apart from others. 

For some reason the central hand and rose on the Voyager card caught my attention.  They both gave me a sense of blessing and growth - as though this venture had been blessed by the gods and the land.  At the same time both give a sense of hard work necessary to achieve this project.  There are other hands on this card and they seem to be showing that a lot of helping hands will be necessary to achieve these goals.  Perhaps it is reflective of a synergistic effect - with each new hand that helps the project, a new energy is added.  It becomes a collaborative effort rather than simple a solo project. 

I often find when I need to work on a project that my challenge is not so much energy or enthusiasm as lack of clarity.  If I am not sure what my goal is then I become easily distracted and don't complete the task.  When I work with others I have sounding boards, people to bounce ideas off.  This gives me more tools to help me work towards completing the task.  Of course the flip side is that I hate needing to ask for help but that's really an insecurity issue.  If I have to ask for help then I worry that I'm exhibiting a sign of weakness.

Of course the other factor in this card is that it's reversed.  I'm guessing this is trying to tell me that I still need to work on this.  I've started to realize some of my challenges in this area but that's only the first step.  The second step is actually working to change those challenges and improve them.  I know I've got skills and talents (not to sound too arrogant) but the bottom line is that if I don't use them to my best advantage they're not really serving me.  I may be an excellent dancer but if I never dance then what's the point of having that skill?  When I don't use these skills and talents they atrophy and leave me feeling like I'm starting to develop a case of CRS.  I begin to forget things or do things wrong, and I hate when that happens.

Maybe that's another factor in this situation - I'm letting myself be distracted by non-essential things.  I know there are at least two projects I need to focus my attentions on completing.  Instead I'm avoiding them because they require a certain amount of boring paperwork.  Intellectually I realize that if I invest a few hours of time in them, I'll be able to get them out of the way.  But I'd rather play Free Cell or roam Facebook.  I'm creating a situation that I'm also dreading - being seen as non-productive.  It's almost as though I'm so afraid I'll be laid off that I'm trying to force the issue because at least then I'll know.  It's ridiculous but I am very aware of my own patterns.  I also realize this is not a mature or helpful approach to the situation.  I need to focus and get these tasks done.  If that means staying completely offline until it is done then so be it.
