Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Temperance – Inverted

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Go with the flow and let the water take you where it may. You may find yourself flowing to greater success by doing so. Allow the flow to bend around those who are in angst. Allow it to pass quickly by those who are negative. Allow it to wash over you, taking away your own frustrations and stress. Allow yourself to simply “be” and enjoy the beauty of the world around you.

Additional Insight:

Sometimes sitting back and working from a place of trust will take you exactly where you need to be, even if it’s not where you thought you wanted to go. Everything in life changes and when we align with the Divine in our life and trust in the flow, we are taken care of.

That doesn’t mean you can always sit back and do nothing. It means sometimes, you’ve done what you can and pushing the issue could take you unintentionally across the rapids.

As you work to bring your dreams and hard work into manifestation, you must know when it’s time to make things happen and when it’s time to allow things to work on their own. Your work involves more than you to become reality. And sometimes you must sit back and wait.

Take in the beauty around you. Allow it to inspire you and perhaps even display solutions to some outstanding problems and issues you face. There are many ways the Divine provides answers to our questions. Sometimes all we need to do is sit back, relax, go with the flow and look. Then they usually pop right out and seem so obvious we wonder why we didn’t see that before.

The Challenges We Face In Life

Facing Challenges

Why Does “God” Test Us?

Recently in a forum of Metaphysical Ministers this question was posted.

“Does anyone in our group believe that God tests us, or tests the strength of our faith?”
Rev.R.M.

The question isn’t an uncommon one. Nor is it one that is accepted on blind faith by Ministers. There are many answers and perspectives of course, because we all have a different way of looking at spiritual belief and practice. A Christian may say “Yes, God may test your faith and devotion of service to his teachings by placing challenges upon your path”. Unitarians might say “No, God doesn’t set up challenges to test our faith. But we set up problems in our lives to learn lessons”.

The wonderful Metaphysical Ministers within this group have similar perspectives to my first response. But when asked this question I have two perspectives to reply to this. Continue reading →

06/10 The Ænigma Project – Dyatlov’s Pass Mystery

The Ænigma Project – Mondays 9 PM EST

The Ænigma Project is a discussion group focused on the realm of the supernatural, paranormal and mysterious events that sometimes take place in our lives. Through multiple view points and experiences, we seek to enlighten our listeners and elucidate that which has become hidden beneath the many layers of misunderstanding and fear.

06/10 Our Topic: Dyatlov Pass Incident –
On the night of February 2, 1959, in the northern Ural mountains lies the Dyatlov’s Pass. The Pass is nestled in the east shoulder of the mountain Kholat Syakhl (an old Mansi language name, meaning Mountain of the Dead). 10 cross country skiers organized a trek across the mountain and through the pass. But only 1 returned alive. What happened to the other 9? Why did they leave shoes behind in their tents during the depths of winter? Were the missing skier’s bodies actually found with radiation burns, crushed internal injuries, and one with a missing tongue? What really happened to these unfortunate skiers who came up missing from their camp site?

We have been trying to discuss this mystery for 2 weeks, but each time something strange has occurred and kept us from getting on the air. If you believe that everything happens for a reason, then what is behind this story that doesn’t want to be told? Find out if we make it on air tonight…or will there be another strange and unusual incident again?

Join Paul Cagle and his co-hosts Sushi and Springwolf as we share our research, knowledge, insight and humor, play “Truth or Tale” and talk about the news of the day.

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

Jun10

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Sometimes even the Queen needs to hide beneath the lily pads and let others take care of business. A fog hovers over the day and it’s not a time to think through big decisions. Do what absolutely must need to be done. But let the rest wait until tomorrow. Take care of yourself today, be gentile with your physical body and keep it from injury or over work.

Additional Insight:

Sometimes the Divine Universe reminds us that we’re connected to the greater world around us. As weather patterns change, so does its effect on our physical body. The turmoil going on around you has taken a toll on you. Be it actual weather patterns, or energy from the community you live in you maybe feeling drained today.

Relax. Don’t over do it and give yourself a little “me” time. Walk a little slower, don’t get stressed out about little things, leave the big things until tomorrow when your head is a little more clear. Avoid anything physically strenuous or that little sore muscle could turn into a serious problem.

Show a bit of patience for those around you who aren’t reacting as well to the pressures. A little compassion might be helpful or you could simply walk away go to your room and close the door. Leave the world to its own devices and focus on your piece of the Universe.

Tomorrow will be a brighter and better day.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Hermit

Jun7

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Light your own way and you’ll find the right path for you. Following others can lead you away from where you need, and truly want to be. It’s your life and you must take accountability and responsibility for it. So stop being the follower of the group and taking orders from someone who doesn’t have your best interest at heart. Carry your own lantern and find where it leads you.

Additional Insight:

Not everyone has the confidence or charisma to be a leader of the group. But you don’t need those things to lead yourself. No one has more knowledge about you, than you do. If you take the time to go within and connect with your higher spirit you can find the path that’s right for you.

Believe in yourself and trust in your spiritual consciousness. Don’t be afraid to listen to your inner voice and walk away from situations you know aren’t good for you. Let others walk their path and make their mistakes. You don’t have to follow them down the hard road. You don’t need their approval or acceptance to be who you are.

Validate your own life by taking control of it and being the guide that leads you through the forest safely, avoiding the pitfalls and traps. There’s no reason to fight others you have no issue with. There’s no reason to be the pawn in someone else’s battle. Allow your spirit to provide the validation and approval for your life and ignore those who want you to follow their road into the dark forest. All you will do is walk farther from your own path and become lost in someone else’s domain.

Remember you are the perfect creation of the Divine for your life in this time and place. You already have all the talents and abilities to lead yourself through the world that your soul intended you to explore. You have all the strengths and opportunities to learn your lessons, pay and redeem your karma, and contribute to the world around you. As well as the chance to claim your rewards.

Belief vs Knowledge

Jun6

The Wise Old Wolf

How Wisdom Is Created

Blind faith is something we teach against in most pagan circles. Simply because someone else said this is true, or that is fact doesn’t make it real or accurate. Simply because something comes from old knowledge or understandings doesn’t mean it’s valid today.

Think about what people were sure of 1,000 or 1,500 years ago. Everyone believed the Earth was flat and if you sailed to far, you’d fall off the world. Of course today we know how silly that is. Image 1,000 years from now and wonder what is it that we’re sure about today that will be completely invalid in the future.

Blind faith doesn’t teach, it doesn’t inspire, it doesn’t allow an individual to experience, expand or grow. We cannot limit our experience in life by what we believe we know to be true. We must put our beliefs to the test.

“The word ‘belief’ is a difficult thing for me. I don’t believe. I must have a reason for a certain hypothesis. Either I know a thing, and then I know it- I don’t need to believe it.” ~ Carl Jung

But you cannot prove blind faith or belief, nor claim it to be true or accurate. That’s the whole point of belief. You either believe it or you don’t. You can share the same concepts of belief with others. But every person may have tiny little differences in how they apply those beliefs to life and the situations around them. So they’re never exactly the same. But why? Continue reading →

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Ten of Swords – Inverted

Jun6

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Don’t let the little wounds overwhelm you today. You don’t have to be what others say you are. Be who you want to be and who you aspire to become. No one else has walked in your shoes or knows all the details about what you’ve been through, except you. So don’t let them define who you are today or in the future. And don’t let their hurtful words get into your consciousness.

Additional Insight:

No one knows you like you do, so why are you allowing others to define who you are? The hurtful words are the reflections of how they see themselves. They are throwing them at you so they don’t have to face the facts about who they have become in their own lives.

Don’t carry their baggage for them. If you feel you must respond to their attempts to label you, simply say “I’m sorry you feel that way about yourself. But I’m not your mirror.” You need not say anything else. Your own words will get into their head.

Each time you replay the recording inside your consciousness recite that response and erase their words. Or you can create an affirmation that helps you reprogram the recording to what it truly should be for you.

Remember you are what you think you are. So don’t think the hateful words others shroud you in. You are a beautiful, intelligent, and capable person; both inside and out. Tell yourself that when you look in the mirror and you will be able to ignore all the negative outside forces that are trying to tell you different.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Two of Pentacles –

Jun5

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Walking the path alone may mean the burdens are harder to carry. But if you don’t give into their struggle you will grow stronger. Don’t allow the perspectives of others to put you down or demean your confidence. You have endured where many others would have failed. Allow your strength to carry your load and reap the benefits as the bounty expands and grows. It’s your reward, you should be the one who decides what happens with it.

Additional Insight:

Everyone deals with the struggles in life differently. Some have struggles that are greater or more dire than others. Some look down their nose at those going through long lasting struggle versus those of immediate unexpected trauma. Some feel ostracized or cast aside because their struggles aren’t about life and death, but are about survival just the same.

Regardless of the issue, many people feel alone and left burdened with no support of any kind. They feel degraded, demeaned or unworthy of help, friendship or support. It’s the lowest of lows and yet they endure and move on through each day trying to survive. Where “no” becomes a common response in their daily conversation.

Those who face long lasting challenges with hope, no matter how small, and do their best not to allow their struggles to turn into bitterness or anger, build strength of character both in who they are as a person and in spirit. It’s easy to give into the negative emotions and jaded views that hardship can create. But it’s through this exercise of positive perspectives that they attain the greatest gift of hardship, confidence and self love.

When the struggle comes to an end, it’s through this courage of character that will bring them out of darkness. Yes they may walk past those who spurned their friendship. They may ignore the new judgements of who they have become by others who have not known their struggle. As they walk with new abundance, they may look the other way from those seeking false reunion. Leaving the pretend friendships in the past. But they earned the right to make their own choices and to celebrate their success with pride. And more importantly with who they choose to celebrate with. The gift of strength and confidence gives each of us the right to control our own destiny and to celebrate the success of living through it in the way we choose.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Remember how you treat those in your life who are struggling through long lasting issues maybe more important than how much charity you provide to a stranger in another state who may have gone through a natural disaster. Both are worthy of your kindness and support. Both desire respect and dignity. It maybe hard for you to face the long standing challenge. It maybe hard to be reminded of the tragedies in every day life. It maybe depressing and annoying. But sometimes your friendship is all they really want. Someone to talk to, someone to share a moment that takes their mind off their hardships. Maybe even someone they can simply vent to and get it out of their system. They may not want anything more from you, or ask something of you. They simply want someone who can look at them with respect when they see them, instead of pity or foreboding. How many people have you stopped speaking to because they’re no longer in your “class” or “clique” because they fell into hard times? What does that say about you?

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Five of Pentacles

Jun4

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

It’s a good day to catch up on some needed rest or put some energy toward your dreams. Whether through a nap or focused meditation, close your eyes and visualize the details surrounding what you want most today. When you’re done, take a little time to write it down and draw up some plans for making it happen in reality. You know what you need to do. Today is the day to get to it!

Additional Insight:

Simply day dreaming about your ambitions isn’t going to help manifest them into reality. But it can help you build energy through working out some of the details. Meditation is great for that.

Focus your mind on the problem and ask your higher mind, and the Divine force in you life for solutions to getting it done. The hard part isn’t in the asking. We’re all good at dwelling on the problem. What’s hard is being open and listening for the answer. Then putting the answer into action.

You have the entire Universal energy on your side. That Divine Creation is never ending, always there, forever knowing what needs to be done and how to do it. And it’s waiting for you to plug into it and get the answers you need most.

What do you really want from your life today? Are you dwelling about what you don’t have? Are you expanding the energy of lack around you? Or are you ready to make things change and create abundance in your life? It’s up to you. You create what’s around you. Get started on creating your part of the world in the image you dream!

The Ænigma Project – Mondays 9 PM EST

Our 06/03 Show had to be cancelled –
Well technology did us in again this evening. Sorry the Universe conspired to keep us off the air. I really thinks it’s odd that we have these major problems when we’re talking about the government or secret societies of some sort. It’s like someone out there is listening and doesn’t want us discussing their stuff. ..hey..we’re a paranormal talk show…weird stuff happens!!

We’ll try again next Monday to discuss the Dyatlov’s Pass Mystery.
On the night of February 2, 1959, in the northern Ural mountains lies the Dyatlov’s Pass. The Pass is nestled in the east shoulder of the mountain Kholat Syakhl (an old Mansi language name, meaning Mountain of the Dead). 10 cross country skiers organized a trek across the mountain and through the pass. But only 1 returned alive. What happened to the other 9? Why did they leave shoes behind in their tents during the depths of winter?
