Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Knight of Wands

Mar1
Knight Of Wands

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

It’s ok to rest for a time on your journey. It’s easy to become overwhelmed with information and needing time to absorb it all and take in what feels right for your path. Trust your instincts, stop for a moment and look around your current position. Consider all the things you have learned and gone through in the past 3 months. Then you’ll be able to determine which way is the best way for your travels.

Additional Insight:

Sometimes it is better to stop and take stock of your surroundings. Constantly moving without reflection can lead you down the wrong path in the maze and cause you to backtrack, wasting time and effort. Don’t zig-zag your way along to escape the hard things, or the issues that are hard to face. All you will end up doing, is making those things seem bigger than they are and sometimes they will grow bigger because you have refused to look at them. So take some time today, to stop, take in a deep breath and close your eyes. Align yourself with the Divine force in your life and review what you have learned, take in what rings true to you and consider how to apply that new knowledge and wisdom to your path.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Six of Cups

Feb29
Six of Cups

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

To fill your cup, you must first make sure it’s open and facing in the right direction. Even if you’re going with the flow around you to maintain peace, you can’t take in the blessings that cross your path when you’re closed and ready for the opportunities that come. Sometimes it takes both optimism and effort to open your heart and mind to the world around you. You never know, you might actually find something new that brings excitement and passion back into your life.

 
Additional Insight:

The mind is like a parachute, it must be open to work. So too is the desire to live a life that’s upbeat and filled with joy and love. If you have built walls because of past events, you’re not only keeping yourself locked in, but you’re keeping the good things in the world out. Sometimes it’s good to remember that while your struggles may have been very hard, somewhere in the world someone else has it much worse than you do. If they can get through the day, so can you. So cast off the fear and trepidation, tear down the walls and open your heart and mind to the possibilities around you. You’ll be glad you did.

A Special Reflection From A Little Spyderwolf

Feb28
The Fool

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Every now and then my young son (the Spyderwolf), asks if he can pull a Tarot card and see the message. Out of the blue he asked to pull a card tonight and if I would add it to my blog. So here’s a special Tarot Reflection for one and all.

The Fool:

The Faery is grabbing the bubbles and not letting them get away. Things are the same when you look at them. He’s holding onto the bubble and the flowering plant is holding onto the leaf.

Now when he tells me what he sees, I ask him what these things mean to him. Bubbles he said make you happy. And when you look at things, they’re always the same.

~

So Mom’s translation:

Happiness is not an illusive thing. All things have two perspectives, even when they look the same. It’s up to you to decide if you’re trying to capture them out of the air, or if you’re letting them support what you’re standing on.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Nine of Wands

Feb28
Nine Of Wands

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Stop and think for a bit and you’ll find the solution. Things are not as dire and they may appear. When you resolve the problem, you’ll be able to laugh about what happened and get on with your week just fine. Sometimes it’s ok not to take things too seriously and smile.

 

Additional Insight:

Sometimes you simply have to stop and laugh. Even when a problem comes up that needs some serious thought and resolution. When it’s over, others will see the humor and relax too. But their frustration and anger will interfere with finding the solution. So don’t get to upset today and you’ll be the one who is able to see clearly and finds the way around the issue. Try to remind others, it’s not a life or death problem, so there’s no reason to be ‘that’ upset.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Sun

Feb27

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Warmth and compassion surround the day for nurturing the inner child and children in your life. Show them you care and love them, even when they make mistakes. Build trust by listening and don’t over react when situations occur. Praise them when they succeed, support them when they struggle, look them in the eye when they talk to you and above all else give them respect as you want to be respected.

Additional Insight:

Stop being so hard on yourself and those around you. Everyone makes mistakes, even you. Take a deep breath, learn from it and try your best to implement a better reaction next time. Listen to your own inner voice and trust your instincts. Show compassion to both yourself and those close to you. Through this approach you will gain their attention and they will listen (even if the “they”, is your own inner child).

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Devil – Inverted

Feb24
The Devil - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Look at things from a different angle, they’re not as bad as you think they are. Others maybe trying to grasp at straws from out of the flames. But you have risen above the fray and are in a position of healing. Don’t judge your day by the complaints and hardships of others. They are still continuing the same old patterns and refuse to change their ways. You have learned many lessons, accept the healing needed from those old negative patterns and are walking toward a positive future! Come on, give yourself come credit already!

Additional Insight:

It’s easy to get pulled into the energy of others and warp your own view of your path. But don’t let those who are always complaining, always looking for a reason to be down and always finding reasons to be angry control your day. If you can’t segregate yourself from these negative people, then focus on setting some good energy shields to bounce their negativity off your environment and back into theirs where it belongs. Close your ears to their voices and walk away when their anger boils over and tries to impact you!

Try to remember that you are the one who has worked hard to change. You have put in the effort, the time and learned the hard lessons in order to break the old patterns and change. You have the strength, courage and energy to face a brighter day. You’ve already done it…so seriously stop being so blasted hard on yourself!

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Knave of Cups – Inverted

Feb23
Knave of Cups - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

It’s ok to peer out through the weeds and see what’s going on. Your supporters have cleared the way for you to be noticed and protected. You’ll find a little hug waiting for you as you emerge. Smile, relax and accept the victory. As small as it might be, it was an important one that will bring great influence later on.

Additional Insight:

When you act like an adult and follow the chain of command, you show respect for those who are most important in your life/career. Flying off the handle, allowing emotions to cloud your judgement only makes things worse and shows others that you’re not ready for the responsibilities ahead. When you can play the game with a positive approach and fight for your own self-worth with reason and proof, you’ll gain support, respect and compassion from those that are worth while to have in your corner.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing – Nine of Cups – Inverted

Feb22
9 of Cups - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Wave your flag today and put your mark in the ground. Your hard work and accomplishments are being challenged by others who have not earned the right to be where you are. So make sure those who need to know, are aware of what you have done for them and what areas you preside over. Don’t allow others to push you around simply because you’re nice and respectful. There are times when you do need to show that same kindness and particularly the same respect to yourself too.
 

 
Additional Insight:

It’s ok to show respect toward others as long as you’re not doing at your own expense. You are equally important and valuable as anyone else. If you don’t remember that, and act accordingly, how will anyone else see you in the same light. You don’t have to fight back with anger or vengeance. But sometimes it’s helpful to remind others of the hard work you’ve done for them, how you’ve made them look good in their position and what area you have carved out or the domain you have been given management over. Stand up for what you have achieved and don’t let others try to undermine it. You’ve earned it!

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing – The Star

Feb21
The Star

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Allow your own star to guide your way. Going with the flow may seem like the best method to get where you’re going, but sometimes it can lead you over the waterfall into danger. Take charge of your journey and guide your path with the flow away from danger, and down the safest route for your travels. Sometimes you have to work a little to keep things going in the right direction.

 
Additional Insight:

Don’t blindly follow the flow without question. Take control of your own destiny and question everything you read, hear, believe and experience. Holding a healthy dose of skepticism allows you to look beyond the words and visions. It forces you to look at knowledge from all points of view, to fully understand it and comprehend it’s meaning. It creates opportunities for you to question, expand your awareness and create a solid foundation of wisdom. It puts you in charge of what is true and valid for your own journey in life and in spirit.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing – The Fool

Feb20
The Fool

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Don’t act the part of the fool today. Double check the ‘facts’ and if you don’t understand something make sure you ask. Others are watching how you handle unexpected situations. Some may not be putting you to the test, as much as they are setting you up to fail. Be skeptical and cautious today.

 
Additional Insight:

A good dose of skepticism is always a good thing. Read between the lines today and ponder the intent behind the message. Are they trying to sell you something? Are they trying to make their claims seem more valid or legitimate by siting certain phrases, such as “study” or “research”? Make sure you double check the facts, look for the source of the information and determine if it’s truly unbiased. There are still games going on around you that may put you in the center of controversy. Be calm, patient and think through your response BEFORE you make it! Today is not the day to ‘wing it’.
