Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: King of Wands

King of Wands

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Walk your talk today! Be compassionate, caring and supportive. You’ll do more for others by being a friend, and treating them the way you wish people would treat you. Accept them for who and what they are. You’ll get more from that, than by being the judge and jury.


Additional Insight:

If you over hear news that wasn’t meant for you, ignore it and walk away. Someone may not have intended for their traumas to be out in the public domain. Keep your business to yourself and allow them to do the same.

You don’t care much for others telling you what to do, what you need to do and what you have to give up or ignore. So what makes you think others want to hear that from you?

Govern your own life and keep your nose out of other peoples business. If someone comes to you for counsel, that’s one thing. But don’t tell them what they can or cannot do. It’s their life and you need to let them live it the way they see fit.

Always remember that you cannot learn lessons for others, no matter how much you think you know. Your experiences were meant for you to learn certain lessons and work through your own spiritual issues or rewards. They should have the same opportunity as you. Share your experience and explain what you went through and what you did to deal with it. But don’t tell them they have to do the same things you did.

Being a friend means knowing how to keep a confidence. Knowing when to be supportive and when to be quiet and show compassion. Sometimes saying nothing at all is the best thing you can do, because all that’s really needed is a hug.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Three of Cups

3 of Cups

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Emotions swing to happiness and abundance today if you can keep your responses in check. Don’t make assumptions and fly off the handle until you discover the whole story and know what’s really going on. Don’t allow rumor to rule the day.


Additional Insight:

Managing your life by rumor is the worst thing you can do for yourself. Others are playing a childish game and trying to be the focus of attention. Some are trying to use assumptions to stir the pot and control the game for their own advantage. Don’t allow either group to dictate your reactions!

Listen to the tales and gather information, but go on a hunt for the truth as it applies to you. Get the facts and decide for yourself if you’re part of the audience who shouldn’t be involved, or a member of the play who needs to dictate your own response to what’s going on. Make sure you’re looking at a balanced story and hear both sides before you make comments or decisions.

If you can control your actions and reactions, you’ll rule the day. The key for today’s message is …. stay in balance, Mind/Body/Spirit and you will spend the day in celebration of abundance, friendship and joy.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Six of Cups

Six of Cups

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Go with the flow today and save your energy. Fighting the current will get you no where and only drain you with frustration, anger and anxiety. Things are happening as they should, in their right time and space. Push too hard and you might capsize or get stuck on the rocks. Let the flow take you where you need to be.


Additional Insight:

You’ve been working very hard this year, but sometimes you have to sit back and smell the roses, or at least take in the scenery. Relax in your boat and enjoy the ride. Don’t push against the current or try to paddle back to where you came from. Don’t force your vessel down a path it’s not intended to go. Doing so could ground your progress to a halt. Or worse, destroy your boat.

Get done what must be done as you can. But if your needs are diverted, don’t fight it or get upset. Let your attention deal with the here and now as needed. Sometimes what’s imperative can be more beneficial than what’s important. And there’s a reason your energy is needed.

Relax, don’t let little things that come up get you into a frenzy. Take them on with clear thought and a calm perspective. Every thing happens for a reason in its right time and place. Try to remember that as you deal with something unexpected. It’s not a bad thing for you and you don’t need to go looking for it. But you are the one who can take care of it and solve it with ease.

Pagan’s Path Surpasses 500k Visitors

The Pagan's Path © 2013 Springwolf, D.D., Ph.D. Springwolf Reflections / Springs Haven, LLC. All Rights Reserved.

The Pagan’s Path ©

Party Opportunity

Sometime in the past few months here my original pagan website site “The Pagan’s Path” surpassed 500k Visitors & I didn’t notice. Well I would have Partied!!

PagansPath.com is a free spiritual education site. Offering online information and studies to those on a path of enlightened growth. Whether you’re Pagan, Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Muslim or traveling on any other spiritual path, learning about other beliefs and ways, will teach you how similar we all really are. And how our differences are nothing to fear.

This information is shared in the hope of opening one’s heart to the blessings of tolerance and acceptance to those who have chosen to walk on the Pagan Path.

PagansPath.com was born from what we called the “SpringIce Network” Established On October 2, 1996 as an original AOL website. Wow that was a long time ago. As AOL evolved so did our intent to share information. And so was my life.

ppath-500kI separated from my first husband, the “Ice” part of SpringIce and moved on. Since he had never participated in our original site, I evolved the name and The Pagan’s Path was born on Ostara 1999.

Tonight I noticed the counter on the site. It’s been a while since I thought about that part of the site. But this evening my son and I were looking at our blogs and comparing visitors.  Which had me thinking about Pagan’s Path. It was both exciting and sort of sad that I hadn’t paid attention to such a milestone number as 500,000 visitors.

I’m celebrating today though, in my own little way. Time really does fly when you’re having fun!

Be Cautious Of Social Media Connections

Be The Alpha LeaderGuilt By Association

A couple of years ago I read an article about being careful who you “Like” on social media sites if you’re a small business. It’s unfortunate that “guilt by association” is something we must be cautious of in a spiritual community, but sometimes it’s even more important in our world.

We make our way in our spiritual practice or business based on our reputation and through word of mouth. Here our reputation is everything! Few things can damage your reputation as quickly as a link to an unsavory person or their business.

Because of this article, I am very cautious about accepting invitations online. Unless I have time to do some research or already know and trust the person, I don’t accept the connection. Whether it’s on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter or any other social media source. It’s not something I do out of arrogance or disdain. But it is done for purely selfish reason; to ensure my reputation is always within my control.

Today a friend who has a small spiritual candle business in the north-west contacted me asking for prayers because of this very issue. She makes the most amazing scented candles with an emphasis on aroma therapy. She uses her own energy to connect with the Divine in her life as she creates the wax and pours the candles. She includes an incantation as she pours the wax to infuse each candle with a specific energy. It’s truly a special gift and talent. (At this time I’m going to keep her name and her candle business out of this article as she wants this story to be shared, but wants to be anonymous).  Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Tower

The Tower

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Lightening doesn’t strike the same place twice, so make sure you’re ready for an opportunity when it arises. It’s not luck that will get you in the door. It’s being prepared when the moment presents itself. You know what needs to be done. Get to it today and over the weekend.


Additional Insight:

You’ve been allowing your negative talk to divert you from your plan. The Faeries told you to stop the self doubt and today they’re telling you to get back to basics! You already know what you need to do. Do it.

If you haven’t written out your plan, that’s what you need to spend the weekend doing. If you’ve written out your plan, you need to get back to it and finish or start the next step on the list. Or at the very least go over it and update it as needs be.

Plans are only set in stone if you drop them on the desk and never look at them again. Don’t file it away and give up on your goals. Doing so may cause you to miss the opportunity you’ve been waiting for. Or worse, fail to live up to expectations because you didn’t complete your mission to be prepared for it when it arrived.

You have things you must do in order to get to the things you want to do. Some of those steps may not seem like items that will help you advance your cause. But they are things that need to be completed if you’re going to get to the steps you’re sure you need to do. Stop putting items on your list off until another day. Others are waiting for you to get them done and they won’t be there to help you when you need them to meet the opportunities of the future when you need them most.

Get back to the basics of building the foundation. Only then will your tower be strong enough to survive the chaos around you. And only then will you be ready when that all important moment of “luck” arrives.

Merry Lughnasadh or Imbolg!

Arctic Wolf Fire

“Arctic Wolf Fire”
By Tom-in-Silence

The Summer Fire Festival

Whether its Lughnasadh for Celtic paths or Lammas for Wiccan paths, the summer fire festival is always a fun event to honor the changing seasons!

As with most things on the pagan calendar, different traditions celebrate and recognize seasonal festivals at different times of the year. Here in the northern Hemisphere, Lughnasadh is recognized on August 1st or 2nd.  It’s the time to recognize and honor Gratitude, Abundance, and bring things to Fruition (Getting it done!)

In the Southern Hemisphere this is the time for Imbolg, the Festival of Lights, when honoring the goddess Brigid and Purification, Initiation, and Dedication to one’s path is recognized.

There are many ways to give thanks and honor during this 1st harvest festival. It celebrates the warmth of the sun, the rain and the faery folk who help tend to the gardens, flocks and fields. As a Celtic festival of the harvest, what better way to give thanks than to prepare a meal with the harvest of your own garden.

Which ever holiday you observe, may it be a wonderful and blessed celebration!

From all of us here to all of you;
Merry Lughnasadh & Imbolg!!

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

Ace of Wands - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Don’t allow the low hanging fruit to limit your reach for something bigger. While those little things might provide instant gratification, they’re blocking your view from the bigger picture. Don’t let fear hold you back. Take the chance and go for the bigger opportunities. You deserve them!


Additional Insight:

The Ace of Wands represent the essence of Enterprise, Inspiration, Distinction from an individual perspective. When inverted it’s letting you know that your self doubt is holding you back from your potential and opportunities. Stop the negative self talk!

What more do you need to prove to yourself that you have the knowledge, ability and experience to reach for the brass ring? You’re doing the research, continually learning and make strides forward and you’re putting into practice what knowledge you’ve gained. All this should be building your confidence, not breaking it.

The fear from others, the fear of the past, the fear of mistakes, the fear of getting what you want are all creating the negative thoughts within. Come to the realization that you will make mistakes. You’re not perfect, but neither are all those other people who have ambition and have achieved their goals. Each one of them made mistakes, many create some really big ones. But each one believed in them self and made the stride over the hump and got through it. If they can do it, so can you.

You do deserve the big prize. You have paid your dues and lived through the struggle. You made your plan and put it into motion, knocking each step off as you built mini-successes. The instant gratifications are nice, while they last. But if you really want the bigger prize, it might be time to start ignoring the little things you can conquer and up your status for the big game!

Now stop the damn pity party and spouting stupid excuses for why you can’t. Get off your butt and get to it! Believe in yourself; especially when no one else does. You can and you will do this!

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Knave of Wands –

Knave of Wands

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Think hard about what you want to create today, for it sets up the events you’ll go through for the rest of the year. This is a turning point day. Don’t be naive, or childish and think long term about how you want the remainder of the year to go. Be careful what you wish for. You might get it. So be sure it’s what you really want.


Additional Insight:

You have some decisions to make today and they have a profound impact on how the rest of your year will flow. So make sure you really know what you’re getting into and what you might be saying yes to. It’s a perfect day for remembering that sometimes what you “want”, isn’t always what you “need”.

You’ve worked long and hard up to this point. Careful you don’t throw that all away on one decision you might regret making. Think things through and don’t let your emotions get the best of you. Remember, not everything is as it seems.

With either option, there maybe things you’ll gain; but there will also be things you lose. Make sure you weigh both sides of the scale and really look at the benefits; and the disadvantages of both side. Your choices may mean the scale can’t be balanced for a short time. In which case, you have to decide if you’re willing to live with the highs that emerge over the lows that can’t be avoided.

If you want to remain where you are, then use caution and proceed with conservative choices. If you want to shake things up and make a change, then you might want to grab the option that is presenting itself and take a chance on something new. Take time to look within, raise your conscious thought and be one with the Divine in your life and view what lays before you from a higher Spiritual perspective. Trust yourself and your instincts, then make the best decision for you. It’s your life, don’t let someone else dictate how you’ll live it.

~~~

The 5 Minute Alignment Meditation – Take some time to align your energy with the Divine in your life and don’t be afraid to ask what you should do that benefits your spiritual mission and your physical happiness.

This is the 660th post on Springwolf Reflections. I like round numbers. A numerological view of today’s message says: 6+6=12 ; 1+2=3 ; Today’s number – 3

Three –
The number of spirit, the whole (mind/body,spirit), wisdom and enlightenment, bringing empowerment.

  • This number is associated with Mars.
  • This number is associated with the Birch Tree.
  • This number is associated with the Snow Goose.
  • It represents the energy world or physical magik. It is a number of balance for feminine and masculine energy.
  • Positive Direction: 3 can denote intelligence and a unique ability to understand all sides. Because of this it’s a number of justice or fairness; being able to balance out all sides of an argument and working out the best for all sides. It’s a great number to have for those in the spiritual or legal professions.
  • Negative Direction: In reverse 3 can be overbearing, intrusive and disregarding fairness. It becomes a number of judgement based on self serving outcomes or a sense of righteousness.
