It’s almost FRIDAY and what a crazy energy week its been. The energy begins to ease a bit, but so often when we go through the sludge, it stays on us and creates wounds, or opens past wounds. Let’s see what you might need to work on for the weekend and the following week. Below are 6 Oracle cards. The backs are all the same, but by using your intuition choose one of the cards that calls most to you. Take a deep breathe in and out. Don’t second guess yourself – just choose. What number do you choose?
Did you choose?
.
.
No peeking.
.
OKay, here is your card:
If you chose #1- A CLOCKWORK PUMPKIN – You will likely find your aha moment that you’ve been waiting for. This could just just a spark of an idea that you have no idea how it could be put into practice, or it could be something that you have planned out or that has been on the cards for some time but never really been acted on yet. It’s time to stop dismissing our ideas and try to get them off the ground now. It’s time to look more at your ideas in more detail. Could they become reality with the right help? Do you need more information or planning before getting them off the ground? Look around for and accept help, grants, materials, knowledge, anything that will help you to get your plans moving. If you never try, you’ll never know if they could have been a success!
If you chose #2 – FAIRY OF THE HIGHLANDS – It is time to be brave. It’s time to take a chance. It’s time to believe in you. A spark of courage is all that is sometimes needed to pursue new challenges, to start new projects. But most of all it’s time to look within and go for battle, using your own inner turmoil to encourage you, not discourage. Raise your sword and be brave. Where in your life do you need to stand up for yourself? Are you overwhelmed? Are there a lot of expectations on you? Be brave enough to follow your own path. You are loved and you are strong. Believe that.
If you chose #3 – SEA STORM – You are surrounded by storms, lightning and great amounts of drama. The world you knew is changing and you are looking for your new place to call home. Trust your instinct, your inner voice.. Don’t just hear, but listen and follow your inner compass and know that you will go the right way. Don’t be afraid of what is to come, trust that you will find your way. The journey will be long but all you need to do is trust.Trust in yourself and you will find your new home, surrounded by loving and supportive people. Sometimes it is the storm that helps to decide what is best to hang on to, and what to let go of.
If you chose #4 – STRANGELY LONELY – You are holding so tightly to something that it is proving to be a barrier between you and others – and what you really want and need. This could be the reason you feel so alone. Have you put a barrier between yourself and the world? Are you afraid to communicate your soul ache? If you chose this card you are being reminded that you need to open up just a little. The girl in the image holds tightly to the Celtic Cross which symbolizes something dear to her. It could be that it’s a symbol of her faith which she sees as something that defines who she is; it could be that it’s connected to someone near and dear to her that is no longer here. Something has her holding on too tightly to something that is generating more of a state sadness and making her feel trapped rather than being something that she can celebrate. Loosen your grip on something or someone in your life. It could be someone on this earthly plane or possibly someone in the spirit. Listen to what your inner self is trying to tell you about why you’re holding on so tightly and let your inner guidance bring you to a place of fulfillment in the here and now.
If you chose #5 – PINK LOTUS FAIRY – Time to take a class, course, or new study program. Time to welcome in a new teacher: either in the form of a physical being, or perhaps a path that speaks to your heart at this time, or a spirit guide who resonates with you. Know that while this path and tranquil, easeful philosophy may seem out of character for you, it is a deep and true part of yourself that has long yearned for acknowledgment, fulfillment, and the nirvana that is on its way. Now would be a great time to take up yoga, pilates or any other exercise that has a spiritual practice connected to it in order to cultivate your inner peace and to receive these massages clearly. Soon a teacher, guide or mentor will come on your path. Know that he/she will demonstrate ways for you to find your own path and to grow and evolve into the being that you are mend to be. When you patiently learn from a good teacher, who is pure in intent, your powers of focus, telepathy, intuition and inner peace, no matter the outer circumstances, will be greatly amplified.
If you chose #6 – MILDEW FAIRY – Think of ways to decrease stagnant moisture (stuck emotions) and increase air flow (fresh thinking!) in your home and environment. When the Mildew Fairy comes to pay a visit, it’s likely things are a little stagnant, a little overemotional, and that fresh, new air and thoughts need to be brought in to clear the situation up! She can mean a fresh way of thinking or a fresh point of view, or a release of emotions that could be “pooling” in one area. Her appearance never means covering up—it means working with the environment you find yourself within. Like the Mildew Fairy said, a little of her can be medicine, and a great deal of her can be maddening—where she turns up will tell you lots about what needs a fresh new approach in your life. And if she is inside, lurking in cupboards, or in the bathroom, instead of decorating pebbles by a pond, you know that the presence of unhealthful energy needs to be addressed. Not rationalized and excused. And never ignored!
