Anubis was the ultimate diplomat. He considered everything before he opened his mouth to speak and he took into account everything that was going on around him before he decided on a way forward.
When Anubis appears, he may indicate that you are looking for a way forward. And that if you sit and think about it for long enough, you’ll be able to identify what that way is. Anubis is the protector, and a guide – he’s the one who helps people find their way. He’s also a bit of a joker. So, while you are being all polite and diplomatic, if you want to improve your ability to communicate, then you’ll likely do it in an amusing way.
If Anubis is the card that you’ve selected today, then there’s something about the path that you are on that needs acknowledgement. It might be that it’s the right path for you and that you just need to enjoy the journey more. Or it might be that you’re headed in the wrong direction. Only you will really know which one of these statements holds true. Anubis always finds what is needed, so trust that you will know what is right for you.
If you’re seeing Anubis as something you need to embrace to improve your communication with others, then remember, he’s a guide, and the message here is that you are still waiting for the path forward. You’re either waiting for it to appear, or you are waiting to start taking it. Humour is a powerful way to release stress (illustrated by the fact that this is one of Anubis’ traits) – so find humour wherever you can. It also helps sometimes to be diplomatic when you communicate, if you want to get the best results. However, the question is, do you feel as if you really need to wait a moment longer to improve your communication, or do you already know in your heart that you’re actually ready to do it right now?
