Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Priestess

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

The day is filled with healing from within. Only your perspective can determine how successful you can become. If you hold the anger and frustration within, you’ll fall flat today and limit the possibilities. Allow your heart to heal and be open to the opportunities of the day. Otherwise, you may miss something you’ve been longing to hear.

Additional Insight:

“Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.”
~ Zig Ziglar

If you keep the wounds bottled up inside, they will anchor you in the past and you’ll never be able to move forward. If you open yourself to inner healing you can fill the balloon and rise above the fray to see the world of possibilities.

Take time to go within and focus your attention on healing and letting go of the grudges of the past. You’ve come so far, but you’re still holding onto the end of the rope attached to that anchor. Let it go and forget about the time wasted and the relationships lost. You didn’t need them in the first place.

Chalk the past experience up to a side quest that provided you with the knowledge and experience for making the real mission a success. You got what you needed out of it and moved on when you were done. The only thing left to do is accept the certificate of graduation and apply what you learned to your current experience.

Only you can decide how high your balloon can go. Release the anchor that’s keeping you grounded in the past and let fly the opportunities of success and wonder. You can do this!

Take time to align your energies with the Divine essence in your life. When you stay connected to higher purpose, you allow your soul to see the forest, and the trees that provide assistance and benefit to your day.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Ten of Pentacles

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Share the abundance of heart and home with those you care for. It’s not what money buys that they want from you. It’s the quality of your time and attention. They need to know you’re listening and actually hearing what they have to say, even if it’s mindless chit chat. Everyone needs someone to talk to.

Additional Insight:

We all have multiple things on our plate many issues that demand our time. But you’re never too busy for those who are important in your life.

Don’t spend your entire weekend focused on work, or the little chores that you want to get done. Make sure you have quality time with your family too. Taking time to enjoy life is just as important as the work you feel must get done.

Re-examine your priorities. Relationships take work to maintain and succeed. How much work will depend on the quality of time, not necessarily the quantity of time you give to them. If you’re not willing to make the effort, they may find someone else who is willing.

Taking a break isn’t only for those in your life, it’s for you too. You will get back the attention to give to others. If you allow your stress to constantly give out anger and hateful words, that’s what you’ll get back. If you want a hug, understanding and a smile, then that’s what you’ll have to give.

Keep dreaming, but if you want them to come true you’ll have to work for them. That might mean working on something you don’t want to do for now. But that doesn’t mean you can’t put focus and energy into planning your dream today.

Additional Insight:

Dreams take planning and organization. So start making notes, learning, researching and build a firm foundation for your dream. You’ll make it sustainable if you do the work up front.

Keep a note pad with you and when you think of an idea, write it down. Even if the note pad is on your phone! If you see something that inspires your dream, take a picture of it and file it away with a note. Pinterest is GREAT for this idea.

Take time to read the experiences of others who created a dream similar to yours. Learn from their mistakes so you don’t make them while bringing yours into reality.

Look for free classes offered by your local Parks and Recreation department, or local government. Or any professional group who maybe offering courses at the local college. You can even find online lectures through webcasts that can provide a wealth of information for getting started, planning and bringing your dream into reality.

Don’t simply day-dream. Bring your visions into reality with preparation and the luck will manifest as needed.

Be cautious about the choices you make for nourishment. Whither it be food or food for thought, you need to make healthy choices today. You instinctively know what you need, so listen to that inner voice and avoid the things (or people) who are bad for you. Tomorrow, you’ll be glad you did.

Additional Insight:

We nourish our body and spirit in many ways. Through food yes, but also through the company we keep. You know what and who isn’t good for you. Stop giving in to the ‘easy’ choices and take a stand for your future and govern your own domain.

It might be easy to drop by the fast food joint, but you won’t get value for your dollar in their version of a healthy choice. And that friend that wants you to skip class, or a meeting doesn’t have your best interest to heart. They’re in self destruct mode and you need no part of that right now.

The choices you make today will set up the consequences of tomorrow; and perhaps the events for the rest of your life. So if you don’t want to be a teen parent, an unemployed statistic or patient in the ER; then you need to step back and take a moment to think about the invitations you receive today.

You are the one who will make a difference in your life. It’s your responsibility to feed and nourish your body and spirit for the betterment of your mission. If you need a break, take a walk. Walk around a building, or walk ALL the halls inside the building. Walk to the deli at the grocery store for a healthy salad. You know the options you have to make it work out in your favor today. Make them work “for” you, not against you.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Emperor

Apr16

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

You are the ruler of your domain and it’s up to you to create a shield of protection over what’s yours. That doesn’t mean lashing out at others for being near you, or offering assistance. You must practice judgement with balanced fairness; not with unfounded rumor. The later could get you in hot water. Show compassion and wisdom and you’ll be successful in winning the day.

Additional Insight:

The Emperor doesn’t make rash decisions. He doesn’t jump out of his chair and start swinging his sword at the first hint of bad news. And nor should you. You must take time today for patience to root out the truth behind the events affecting your world. Ignore the claims that sensationalize what’s going on around you. And make sure you are questioning everything your told in order to investigate which stories are real and which are not.

There are many who want to deceive you and lead you down a path of physical action before you’re ready to do so. Don’t sign the dotted line until you read the fine print. Don’t say yes or no to a decision until you think it through and investigate the consequences of each choice. Don’t give in to someone elses selfish desires, when you’re not sure you share those desires.

In the end you are the one who has to live with the consequences of your actions. All the advice will mean nothing then, and those advisers may walk away clean and clear from any accountability. If you want to be the ruler of your domain, you must act like it and make your own decisions based on your own discovery of information.

Practice what you preach and show compassion to someone in need. A little hug can go a long way to helping someone making it through tough times. We all need to feel connected and part of something. So when someone lashes out at you for no reason, it could be because they’re struggling with something greater than you may know.

Additional Insight:

You don’t have to know details about what others are going through. They may not even want to share for fear of ridicule or threats to their position. But it doesn’t take being nosy to show someone compassion.

A simple touch of the shoulder, caress of the hand or arm can work as well as a hug. You can promote healing and empower them to get through one more day. You can also help yourself.

Practicing what you preach brings positive energy back to you as well. You can’t talk a good talk and then not back it up with actions. So if you’re talking bad about someone, putting others down because of their differences, think about how that works against your own self interests.

If you want to be accepted for who and what you are, then you must practice those words toward others in your life. If you walk with a scowl on your face through the halls; how are you inviting smiles of acceptance from others. Think about how you act and how others treat you and you may find areas where you need to change your own attitudes. Maybe the one who needs the hug is you.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: King of Pentacles

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

It’s lonely at the top, but remember you asked to be here. You can’t go back and you can’t change what’s already been done. All you can do is keep moving forward one step at a time. You know what to do and what needs to be done. Just get to it and you’ll find the rewards you’re hoping for very soon. Believe in yourself; even when no one else does!

Additional Insight:

Be careful what you ask for, you might get it and have to live with it. You agonized over your choice before you made it. So stop second guessing yourself today. It’s done and you can’t go back and change it.

All you can do is move forward and live the life you planned on. Trying to relive the past will only replay what has already appeared on the stage. Stop letting the doubts fill your head and pull down your mood and belief in yourself.

You can handle the responsibility and you will reign over your domain successfully. Ignore the nay-sayers, stop listening to the untrue rumors being spread about you, stand up for yourself and confront those trying to undermine your authority. Their jealousy will come back upon them and they’ll be seen for what they are.

You have too much invested in where you are today. So stand up straight, be strong and stand up for yourself. If you don’t, who else will?!

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Seven of Swords

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Feed the strength within and allow it to grow and carry you through the challenges of the day. Blue is the color of pride, adoration and dedication. Spend time nurturing your self pride, the adoration for the world around you and your dedication to higher purpose. You have a choice to focus on the thorns in the garden, or the flowers that share their beauty with the world. Focus on the blooms in “your” garden.

Additional Insight:

Don’t spend your day being prideful and refusing to admit to your mistakes. Don’t spend your day in envy of what others have or do. Don’t spend your day searching for something you already have in your own garden.

When you nurture your own talents, you allow them to grow and express themselves in positive ways. This can help you discover new avenues or adventures, new opportunities to live your mission and move forward on your path.

As above so below isn’t merely a euphemism to make one consciously aware of the Divine force in their life. It means that when you focus on your bigger spiritual mission, you have the ability to bring its energy into your physical life allowing you to be prepared when opportunity arises. That is how you create “luck” in your life.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Knave of Cups

Apr10

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Sit pretty and you’ll be noticed. It’s not always the squeaky wheel that gets the attention. But then again the attention they get isn’t really what’s desired. When are content with who you are within yourself, others take notice. You may even get some unexpected attention that promises to be beneficial to your day, and maybe even your year.

Additional Insight:

What you put out comes back to you, not only in action but in emotion and energy as well. If you’re constantly angry, you will bring more anger to your day. You may also repeal those you want in your life. There’s some truth to the comment “Don’t be a Gloomy Guss”, for it creates a darkness around you.

Today is a good day to go within and remember who YOU are. Not who others want you to be or expect you to be. Rise up and be the sunshine that others want to be near. Express your warmth for others in a smile or caring glance. Sit up and take notice of the world around you and the flow of energy that’s moving through coming season.

Now is the time for you to shine, but you can’t do that by living in the darkness of depression, anger or sadness. See yourself rising up above the clouds where the brilliance of the Sun can warm your heart and soul. Make yourself happy and those around you will be happy too.

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

Apr9

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Keep cool as best you can today. Don’t let the weather, the lack of sleep or others bait you into a heated conflict. It’s not worth your time or effort. Sit back and focus on your own thing. They may get even more angry at you, but that’s ok. You don’t have to take on their problems, especially when they’re not yours to begin with.

Additional Insight:

You have your own stress to deal with, why take on what someone else wants to dump on you? It’s not your problem, so don’t allow them to make it yours.

Today is a good day to walk away, close your office door or put up a sign so others will leave you alone. Sit back and relax as you get through the things on your plate. You’re not going to fix the worlds problems today, so focus on your own.

It’s not hard to tell someone, I’m sorry you’re having a bad day, but I have somethings on my plate that I have to focus on right now. If they get upset with you, let them. Don’t get offended by their selfish attitude. Their response is designed specifically to get you embroiled in their drama.

You have the power over your reactions. Walk away and don’t let them hold you in their chains of anger. Tell them you don’t have time for their drama and hang up the phone. Or don’t answer it to begin with. That’s what voice mail is for.

Remember YOU control your emotions. If you give into the manipulation and allow others to bait you into their dilemma, you’re allowing them to control your emotions. Do you really want to do that?
