Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Strength – Inverted

Strength Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Protection, Success and Healing mark the day! Though you may be physically zapped of energy and strength, don’t let your exhaustion overwhelm your emotions. Things are working in your favor and the Divine is overseeing the events of the day. Don’t let your pride and ambition react with disdain or disrespect toward others. Your confidence will help you win the day, but too much flow of arrogance can backfire on what you need most.


Additional Insight:

Worry, lack of sleep, working hard and pushing through have all taken their toll on you physically. The Divine in your life, understands you’re tired and close to the edge of giving up. But don’t! You’re about to overcome the last hurdles.

Don’t attach your success to things or to material objects. They’re not what’s really important in your life, and you know it. Those who hold too much of a materialistic nature, have been and will be, forced to give up what they hold too high. Spiritual lessons aren’t always an easy thing to go through.

But those who understand the value of a peaceful walk through the forest with those you love or the value of the time you share together, can survive these lessons with relatively small losses. And for the most part, this group has already paid the dues for that course.

You’re facing spiritual lessons and putting your faith to the test. Do you walk the path you preach? Do you follow your own advice that you give to others? “Let go and Let God” direct your path to where you need to be, which may not be the same as where you want to be. Remember all things change. How quickly, how easily and in what direction is entirely up to you and how much you fight against the grain. So check your attitude at the door!

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Devil

The Devil

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

The Devil is in the details. Make sure you understand the fine print before you sign anything or make any commitments today. No one is trying to put one over on you, but you really want to make sure you understand everything you’re being held accountable for. Review the dates, the requirements and what’s expected of you and ensure you truly understand everything before you put your name to any contracts!


Additional Insight:

You always have choices and options. Don’t blame others or a bigger entity because you didn’t take time to read and understand what you were signing. No one else is accountable for your actions, but you. And you could have taken the time to read, ask questions and have someone explain to you what this says or what that means.

Assuming others know better and if they say it’s ok, then you can put your name to is, is making the choice to give control over your life to someone else. That’s misplaced trust and you’re still accountable for that decision. So stop playing the innocent victim.

Stand up for yourself and take responsibility for your path forward. Ignoring it isn’t going to make it go away. Putting it off is only going to make things worse and you’ll run out of time. Stop expecting someone else to solve your problems and come rushing in with a final solution that saves the day. People are too busy saving their own arses to be expected to save yours too!

What Happens When We Die

Blessings Of The GreenThe Process of Life and Death

While we were on our summer break I received a lot of great emails. Quite a few of them caught my attention and in particular I found myself writing a novel to answer a few of them. I decided; a few of these might be better answered on the blog. Surely this isn’t the only time someone has asked this question. Perhaps we can help others who are seeking to find answers and understand these concepts too.

I’m not going to post the entire emails and their contents, our friends deserves privacy. In this particular email / answer,  I do want to share the question and put it in context so we’re all on the same page as I share my view and understanding from my perspective. Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Tower

 

The Tower

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

You’re going to blow the top off this place and put on a light show that will be the envy of all. Just because it’s dark doesn’t mean it’s bad. Things really are working out in your favor and sometimes, you need the darkness to really let your light shine. Fireworks are better at night after all. Don’t cave to the pressure. Believe in yourself and have Faith all is going to be ok! Cause it is.


Additional Insight:

Remember this:
Have Faith, Not Hope. Hope is a beggar. Faith is a believer! Hope walks through the fire. Where as Faith leaps over it!” ~ Springwolf 🐾 (inspired by Jim Carrey).

Walk your path this week with faith and know you’re going to be ok. Everything is working out as it should and though you feel tied down and “put under” the doom and gloom; things really aren’t that bad.

You’ll feel much better about things by weeks end and soon you’ll find yourself celebrating in grand style. Sometimes we must walk through the fire to let go of the old patterns that hold us back and keep us from attaining what we need.

Other times, we must have faith that we are being looked after and guided to the place we’re needed the most. And some of your struggle is not yours to carry. But rather it belongs to another who must walk through the fire on their own terms and for their own lessons. You can’t learn those for them, nor can you carry their karma in their stead.

Resources for Spiritual Religions, Paths, Movements

readingResources For Learning

I’ve recently gotten into some conversations about learning and researching other belief systems. How can we build tolerance for each other, when we don’t even understand the perspectives others hold? We must start with reading, research and learning.

That doesn’t mean you’re going to be converted to another belief. If that does happen, then maybe you weren’t as anchored in your proclaimed belief in the first place. There’s nothing to be afraid of, unless you don’t think your views and beliefs can stand up to comparison or scrutiny. In which case, why would you want to follow a system of belief that isn’t valid within your own standards?

Learning about others can actually strengthen your own beliefs by expanding your views. When you remove the limitations from your mind, you can see a much larger view of the world around you. That might give you something to think about and lead you to research within your own beliefs to discover how this relates to that, or how does this explain that, and so on. Continue reading

Sneaking In A Tarot Message

5 of Pentacles

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

For Your Weekend

My friend Rayne has sent me a few messages today; and posted on FB that she needed a drawing for today because of a big event coming up this weekend. I’ve known her for nearly 20years; so I gave in to her request even though we’re on break.

So here’s a special Tarot Meditation Message for Friday and this weekend.

Segregating yourself from the world is not going to change your current struggles. It’s only going to make you feel alone and walled off from those who care about you. Choose to be happy and live the day with what you do have.


Additional Insight:

Things are not as broken down as you think they are. And you do have enough to get through the weekend at the very least. Stop putting your focus on the financial and look at the abundance you have in other areas of your life.

Focusing on the lack will only bring more of the same. Stop wallowing in the self-pity! You’re complaining about someone in your home not helping out. At least you have someone in your life. At least you have a home and roof over your head. There’s always someone out there who has it worse than you do. So if you have some form of love around you; you’re richer than some of the richest millionaires in the world.

The Summer Solstice – Time For Faeries

WolvesPeak by Julie Fain ©

Wolves Peak by Julie Fain ©

Celebrating Faeries, Wishes and The Good Ole Summertime
By Springwolf, D.D., Ph.D.  🐾

The Summer Solstice rings in the waning year and begins the slow good-bye of the sun as the days become shorter and the darkness returns to the land. Here in the Northern Hemisphere, we celebrate the Summer Solstice on June 21st or 22nd in the Southern Hemisphere it falls on December 21st or 22nd.

As the story goes, the Oak King has ruled over the Earth, bringing the Sun to warm the ground so fields could be planted for wheat, barley and gardens can grow. When the solstice arrives, the Holly King wakes from his slumber and challenges the Oak for supremacy in the sky.

Their battles rage through the summer as the Oak King fights to hold on to his love, Mother Earth. The clashes between these Kings are heard through the Thunder drums of summer storms as lightning crackles  from the striking of their swords in bright explosions.

To watch over the land, the Faeries come out at night to protect the children of Mother Earth and their forest homes from the battles that rage on beyond the clouds above. The rabbits, squirrels, birds, trees and flowers are all cared for by the magikal Fae and even you are protected beneath their wings.

If you honor the work of the Fae on the special Summer Solstice night, they may return your kindness by helping to manifest a wish you asked during the Solstice festival. For this is the night the Fae dance by the bonfires and spread their magik across the land beneath the light of Grandmother Moon.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: King of Pentacles

 

King of Pentacles

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

The Fae are working to help you manifest the energy you’ve been creating to turn things around. It feels as if it’s going extra slow because others are distracted and haven’t been doing their part. You may have to do a little nagging today and this weekend to get the ball rolling again. Don’t be afraid to push a little bit and remind them of what needs to be done and the deadlines involved. It takes a team to make all this work out in the end.


Additional Insight:

Don’t be angry or upset with how others are contributing to your plans to make things happen and turn your finances around. They’re stressed out and filled with anxiety too. Everyone is feeling overwhelmed; it’s not only you.

Giving gentle reminders and asking what you can do to help will give them the nudge to get back to work. Reminding them that things can’t move forward until they do their part will also help. As long as you’re doing that nagging with a calm voice of support. Tone is everything today!

Don’t try to make them feel guilty, or blame for something that has already occurred. They’re not the only responsible for the mess you’re in. You had a hand in it too. If you want to make things work out for everyone, you’re going to have to face the bad and the good as a team to get it done.

Spend today and the entire weekend being calm and patient. But remember you’re the one who rules over your domain. Lead the way by example and with compassion and concern. Others will look up to you and want to do their part to please you and gain your favor. A much nicer way to get what you need….and want. Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Seven of Wands

 

7 of Wands

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Don’t let someone else’s unreasonable fears or selfish jealousy, talk you out of doing something you’ve always wanted to do. Make sure you’ve considered the dangers (if there is any) and taken precautions to remain safe. Then go for it. Have the courage to excel. Let yourself look back in 20years and say “I did that”! Instead of whining and talking about the regrets you have for not doing something. You never what fun and exciting things can come from taking a chance and living out your dreams! 


Additional Insight:

Others may have concern for your well-being, but their they may also be putting blocks in your way out of fear. Make sure you take time to understand their reasons for trying to hold you back before you jump into something you might regret.

They may have some valid concerns if your feat of daring is dangerous. So listen and take the necessary precautions. But don’t allow the fear from jealousy hold you back if their only concern is that you may accomplish something they were never able to do.

Courage comes in many forms and you don’t have to face a dangerous situation to express it. Courage to live your life by your dreams and standards can also be a form of self-expression. Do you give up the dream career in order to play it safe, not take chances and be a “stable citizen”? Many people have taken that road and found themselves without a job and scrambling for that sense of security. Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Lovers – Inverted

The Lovers - Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

To become one with another being, you must first become one within yourself. No one else can “make” you happy, or make you feel excited or in-love. Those are the emotions you are responsible for and govern on your own.  Relationships are a dime a dozen, but if you want that one in a million special love affair, you must first look within and find the love of self that unites your Mind, Body and Spirit. When you love yourself for who and what you are, others will love you too and want to set off fireworks each and every moment they’re with you.


Additional Insight:

When you are critical of yourself, you quickly find fault in others. When you can’t accept yourself for who and what you are, you won’t give that consideration to others. When even you don’t love yourself, it’s hard for others to see what’s within you to love.

Stop being your own worst enemy and start looking at yourself with Divine eyes. Criticism of self is nothing more than applying the fear of the world around you on the image you see in the mirror. All that negative self talk you do, comes from the many recordings you have made over the years from the unhappiness others. They weren’t or aren’t happy; so they don’t want you to be happy. Stop giving away the control over your own emotions to those who live in darkness, selfishness and fear. Continue reading
