Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: King of Cups

King of Cups

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

You rule over your own emotions. Stop blaming others for the way you feel. You made the choices to make assumptions about what others were thinking or doing. It’s not their fault if you were not accurate. Take accountability for what you have done and be responsible for the consequences that came as a result of them.


Additional Insight:

There is a pattern developing around you and it’s not a good one. You want to be the Ruler of your Domain, but you’re not taking the responsibility that goes along with that job. You can’t have it both ways.

Think about how you are allowing yourself to feel. Does anyone else tell you how to think, push a button to turn on your tears or react with anger? No, these things are controlled by you and only you can stop jumping to conclusions and reacting to misinformation and misconceptions.

Stop taking the words of everyone else as gospel and then reacting to it. Especially if based on rumor and assumptions. Don’t be part of the rumor mill who rarely gets it right. If you hear something about someone, have the decency to talk to the person with compassion and ask them face to face if it’s true.

Don’t be one of the people who condemns someone without just cause. Either based on rumor or your own assumptions, you maybe blowing something up, that was never accurate in the first place. You reactions could be creating a snowball that you can’t control. Or you’re spreading a story that makes you look like the bully and causes greater harm than was intended. Remember what you put out always comes back to you. If you continue this course today, it will comeback and knock you on your ass! And deservedly so!

Looking With Better Eyes

Eyes of the Hunter

Eyes of the Hunter by Charles Alexander
The eyes have been altered from the original picture

How We See, Creates What We See

Last evening I received a comment on the Once In A Blue Moon post here on my blog.

Comment:
You have a nice picture of a wooden chalice BUT it has a picture of a trap[ped] demon on the outside of the chalice. If you don’t believe me then look at the chalice close up!

It’s been a year since that post was published and this is the first time someone has mentioned anything like this. I’d like to share some insight about this perspective and how we see the world through the lenses we create with the energy we establish around us.

I looked at the cup in question (posted below). I asked my husband and son to look at the cup without telling them about the comments posted on the article. Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Empress – Inverted

The Empress - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

What you create and nurture is what you will receive. If you continually see doom, conflict, angst and anger, that’s what you will attract into your day and into your life. Be careful what type of self-fulfilling prophecy you create. You may not like it.


Additional Insight:

Many forget that walking a spiritual path means walking it every moment of your life. It’s not enough to give it lip service to impress your friends, or give yourself a false sense of “living right”. It means “Walking Your Talk”. ~ Meditation, Energy & Action ©.

In the world of Metaphysical belief we are part of the greater Divine Universe. We are connected to it, part of it and empowered by it. As part of this connection you have within you the ability of Creation. And you use it every day.  You have the ability to create your day in the manner in which you desire. That in turn will create your week, your month, your year and your life. You can create happiness, success, and prosperity in Mind/Body/Spirit.

You are the Empress of your life (yes even if you’re a guy). You rule over your life and allow things to happen, good, bad or indifferent. You make the choices and you decide how your day goes. No one else “makes” you feel a certain way or controls your emotions.

Because of this you must be careful what kind of day you create for yourself. If you start out with negative thoughts, you will create a negative day and that will definitely carry over into the weekend. But if you can rise above and align yourself with the Divine in your life, you can “Push Past the Pain” (a powerful quote I heard from Antoinette Tuff).

Whatever you go through in life, remember you can always align yourself with that Divine consciousness that you hold within you. You have all the energy and power you need to get through anything and Push past the pain. Don’t let it rule you. Don’t let it pull you down into the darkness of anger or despair. Don’t allow the angst to attract more negativity into your day, week, month, year, life.

Create the world you desire with calmness, peace, acceptance, tolerance and yes even love. When you can love yourself, love the day you wake up into, you can pull more of that same energy to you and overcome anything. So for today and this weekend, keep this motto in your heart and in the forefront of your mind “Push past the pain.” A beautiful lesson we all can appreciate.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Eight of Pentacles – Inverted

Eight Of Pentacles - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Even if you turn your basket upside down, you won’t lose it all. You still have plenty left and many blessings to be thankful for. The more you dwell on what you don’t have, the more things will stay the same. Change your thoughts! Stop worrying so much. The Divine IS taking care of you for as long as you’re trying to help yourself.


Additional Insight:

This isn’t the first time you’ve been told that what you think creates your day and your future. Thoughts have energy and can both impact your life and attract similar energy to you. You’ve got to stop it.

Sometimes it’s ok to make due. And that’s better than losing it all. No one “needs” the fastest, biggest, best, or greatest this or that in their life. Material things can’t love you back or take care of you when you are sick.

Get your head out of the shadows. Stop looking at work as a drudgery that’s holding you back. Everything in its right time and place. And right now you’re not ready for that big dream to come through. You haven’t even set the foundation yet. If you keep trying to build on the floor you have, it will not be able to sustain the work you have put in and the whole building will come tumbling down.

Stop making excuses for why you can’t do this or that. Stop looking for reasons that put the priority on other things. The most important thing in your day today, is securing the foundation of your dreams and getting things DONE that you’ve been putting off for months! No more excuses. No more putting higher priorities on other things that “might” bring in cash. Focus on the beginning and get it done! This maybe your last chance to do it.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Eight of Swords

Eight of Swords

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Stress, strife and anxiety are surrounding everyone today. Be cautious of your instinct to lash out and take it out on others. Your shields to keep negativity away and actually attract more of what you’re trying to avoid, if you set them with anger. YOU control your emotions. No one else “makes” you feel a certain way. So take extra care to control them today!


Additional Insight:

It maybe easy to lash out at others today, but be careful you’re not taking your anxiety out on someone who doesn’t deserve it. Don’t let others push your buttons. Make sure you ask someone who is annoying you to stop, in a calm and kind voice. Or ask to be left alone for a while today. You can communicate in calm responses and not make things worse. 

If you’re in a situation where you can’t get away or tell someone to stop it. Let everyone know that for some reason your nerves are frayed today and you got up on the wrong side of the bed. Apologize now and tell everyone, you hope you don’t take it out on them. But if you do, you really don’t mean it personally and they should let you know, it’s going to be ok.

Remember though, they too may feel the same way you do today. It’s going to be hard for everyone to keep their emotions and reactions in check. You nor they, are perfect and someone is going to lash out sometime during the day. Do your best not to hit below the belt and take it too far. Walk away if someone really sends you over the edge and regain control of your emotions.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Ace of Wands – Inverted

Ace of Wands - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Keep your creativity grounded and rooted in your own inspirations. Don’t worry about what others are doing or try to copy their work. Trying to hide your efforts does a disservice to your own wisdom and talent. And it could put your ethics in to question. If you are the artist and your work is being claimed by others, it may be a compliment, but don’t let them get away with it. It takes away from your hard work and more importantly your reputation.


Additional Insight:

Wands represent the essence of Enterprise, Inspiration, and Distinction. It is your inspiration that creates the distinction of your Enterprise. And your reputation. Protect your own reputation by being respectful and just, both for the work of others, and for your own work too.

When you use someone else as your inspiration to create something new, it’s an act of your own creativity. But when you use someone else’s view to duplicate their inspiration you are dismissing your own ability to create from within.

When you claim someone else’s work as your own (which happens a lot in today’s global digital world) you are setting the root of your reputation in fraud and like the fallen mushroom, that will fall into decay and rot. Give yourself the right to express your own view, imagination and creative ability. If you’re not sure what that is, take some time to write about what you see, believe and know. Use your own words to inspire your visions to create. If you feel you don’t know enough, then use your words as the inspiration to research, study and learn more.

If you are the creator who holds the imagination, wisdom and knowledge know that “copycats” are the great form of flattery. But in today’s society, your reputation means everything and allowing others to steal your work without reprisals could actually do harm to both your knowledge and your income. Holding respect for yourself in this case means knowing your own value and valuing your own contributions to others and the world. Respect yourself enough to not be afraid of standing up for the ownership of your own creations.

There’s much more at stake here than the immediate theft of property. There’s even more at stake than the immediate financial rewards. The biggest thing to be concerned about is the theft of your reputation which can impact your future. Don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself and for what is rightfully yours.

eMails Concerning Reiki Fakes

Springwolf's Hanko LogoAn Increased Concern

I’m trying to go through eMail this week that has been piling up over the past two months. Every now and then a trend will develop from eMail questions or requests for information that I feel needs to be brought out on a larger or more visible stage.

Over the past two months I have received a lot of emails concerning Reiki fakes and frauds. How to spot someone who’s fake or who’s operating in a fraudulent manner is a concern for any profession. But it’s one that’s easily purported in the spiritual arts.

I’ve written several articles that I hope have helped people spot frauds, charlatans and people claiming to have knowledge they haven’t truly obtained. You might want to check out the What Is A Spiritual Expert – Series.

The bottom line is, if you visit with someone claiming to be an expert at anything, you have the right to ask them questions about their training and knowledge. You have a right to ask to see their certifications. And that’s true no matter what professional field they are part of. Be it a medical doctor, lawyer, accountant or any form of spiritual service.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Ace of Cups

 

Ace of Cups

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Don’t get so distracted looking through the window that your emotions over flow. If you want to be noticed, go inside and be part of the party. Your self-doubt is keeping you at bay from others, simply because your fears of the past have moved to the surface. And there’s no reason for it. Stop hiding! You might actually have some fun!


Additional Insight:

The lack of confidence, self-deprecation, and “What’s wrong with me” attitude is the problem. You think everyone is ignoring you, when the problem is, you’re pushing everyone away. There are many who love you and want you to be part of their lives. Stop closing the door in their face.

Several have reached out to, even those you don’t even know in real life. So why are you ignoring the attention? Why are you trying to play the victim, when you’re the one who is causing the self segregation.

Either you’ll come across as aloof and conceited or as a drama queen who’s looking for attention. Neither one is what you really want, so stop playing the game and stand up. The recent events hasn’t changed your worth or value. It’s only changed your emotional view of yourself that’s coming from a state of fear and depression.

Only YOU can change your attitude. Everything happens for a reason in the right time and space. There’s a reason you’ve kicked yourself out. You can no longer run away and replace what’s missing in your life with work and full plate. Now you must take the time to sit still, contemplate and open up to become part of the world you want to be in.

Believe in yourself. You really have more value in life, work and love than you give yourself credit for. You’ve managed to reach the pinnacle of success in work and life. Now stop letting the past overshadow your connections to love. You do deserve better than that from yourself.
