Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Six of Pentacles

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

When you share your gifts with others, they will share their abundance with you. You’ve said many times, what you put out – you receive back. But have you been sending out the best of intentions, positive energy, compassion and kindness? If you want these things in your life, you must give them freely to those around you.

Additional Insight:

The Divine Universe isn’t a chaotic place. It was created with natural laws to help keep balance in all things. These Universal Laws are in play with everything you do and think. And you know some of the important ones already. Your ultimate lesson here in this physical world is to live your life, make your choices and exist in balance with all things seen and unseen in your life and around your world.

Don’t merely give your beliefs lip service and expect others to live up to your standards when you’re not doing that yourself. You too need to apply them to your own life and actions. You can’t go around being angry and grumpy all the time and expect others to always bring happiness to you when they come around. Or be there for you when you need them.

Out of sight out of mind might keep negativity away from your world. But when you want those people to be part of your day, don’t be surprised if they don’t want to hear from you. Sometimes giving of yourself means allowing someone you care for to cry on your shoulder and vent their frustrations with condemnation or guilt for their plight. Don’t let someone complain and then dismiss their emotions as if they don’t have a right to feel them. Or invalidate their struggles simply because you can’t understand what they’re going through.

You get back, what you put out. You’ve said that about the actions of others who have wronged you. But how many times have you applied it to yourself? Sometimes the greatest gift you can give is free to you…your time, a listening ear, a strong shoulder. If you know someone who is struggling, helping them doesn’t necessarily mean giving them money or material things. Sometimes people who are facing hardship simply want to vent and get the frustrations out of their system for a little while.

When you share your gifts with others freely, be they talents, knowledge, your time, items of abundance or some other offering from self, you express your love and compassion to the world around you. Doing that allows the Divine Universe to bring that positive energy back to you and reward your efforts of kindness.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Justice

Mar18

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Blind faith can deceive and hamper your journey. Make sure you investigate the facts before you make decisions based on one persons word. You may find they are being dishonest and trying to take advantage of your kindness. Rose colored glasses can help you look for the good in all people, but they shouldn’t stop you from seeing the tarnish that can eat away at your heart.

Additional Insight:

Justice requires honesty, so be honest with yourself. You know what’s really going on, even if you don’t want to admit it. You’ve seen the clues, you’ve noticed the inconsistent stories, your gut feelings have been digging into your side. Why aren’t you paying attention?

Trust is something that’s earned, not given without Justification. A title might cause you to pay attention to the words and actions of the title holder. But they are still human, like you and are accountable for their words and actions, like you.

Don’t let the desire to have something in your life cloud your judgement from the truth. Sometimes you can fool yourself into justifying your actions, even when you know it’s not good for you. Pay attention to the writing on the wall. You may not get another chance to change things before it’s too late and you’re too invested in this situation.

Whither this is a lie you’re telling yourself because you don’t want to do something, or if it’s someone trying to deceive you; you know what’s going on and ignoring it will not make it go away or get any better. The longer you wait the harder it will be to walk away.

Thinking positive or trying to believe in something or someone beyond your suspicions will only take you so far. At some point you must take control of your own destiny and make choices that are beneficial to you. You can’t learn lessons for others. And sometimes that means letting them go and moving on to something that’s better for you.

If you grow beyond your current situation, or the people you’re with, it’s ok to make changes and move on. The Divine Universe has a way of pushing us to where we need to be, even if we think it’s now where we want to be. Eventually we find out, it was a better place for us in the first place.

Don’t settle for the half-baked pie. Take a walk and find a new bakery that prides itself on offering the best. You deserve more, you’ve earned it and you’ve worked hard for it.

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

Mar15

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Please don’t fret, there’s abundance in your pocket. All you need to do is believe in yourself. With a little turn of the wheel you can create the bountiful harvest you seek. Don’t give up or take your eye off the work you’ve already done. It’s coming to fruition and it won’t arrive too late.

Additional Insight:

Think about all you’ve put into the work and plans you’ve toiled over the past year. Each time you thought you were going to fail, you buckled down and made it through the rising tide. You survived and you’ve moved to where you need to be.

Now that you’re so close to seeing that hard work succeed, don’t give in or give up. Believe in yourself and your abilities. Believe in the magik you’ve set free to manifest. Remind yourself that you CAN and you WILL do this!

You can, because you are One with the Divine Consciousness in your life. You DO attract and you WILL acquire more happiness and financial abundance than you know what to do with!

Let go of the negative feelings, thoughts and energy. Stop pulling the negative hardships toward you. Believe and you will attract that creative energy to you. Spin the wheel in the right direction, and walk forward to your brighter future.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Knight of Wands

Mar14

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

You’ve fought the war, now take some time to rest a bit. There’s no need to continue the fight when the only one you’re fighting is yourself. Let go of the anger, frustration and worry. If you want the battles to be over, you must start acting like they are. You’re only attracting more of the same and prolonging a war that doesn’t need to be fought in the first place.

Additional Insight:

Trying to survive and endure is admirable, but sometimes it can prolong the war. Rest a bit today from the battles. Work on truly changing your focus from struggle and worry to release. “Let go and let God” (who ever that Divine source is for you). You’ve done your part.

At some point you simply have to let it go. Whither it’s something you were trying to keep, or something you’ve been fighting to move away from, there comes a time to let it go. If it was meant to be, all the work you’ve done will make it so. Now it’s time to release it and allow the Divine Universe to manifest the right energy for your path ahead.

So today when someone wants to drag you onto the battlefield, simply hold your tongue. Take a deep breath and release the anger. Don’t allow others to control your emotions and bait you into a fight. Walk away, say goodbye and hang up the phone. Do whatever you need to do, but don’t walk into another unnecessary skirmish.

Start changing your life in the here and now. Find contentment within, control your day the way YOU want it to go and let others control theirs by the way they choose. You don’t have to walk their path. You cannot learn their lessons for them. You cannot “make” them do what you demand or desire. So simply … let it go. And move on. Find your happiness again and smile.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Five of Wands

Mar13

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Gifts from nature are coming your way. Be on the look out for an unexpected event. Something you’ve planned for, but didn’t expect is about to make its presence known. Be receptive and appreciative. Don’t let a bad mood reject the gesture or miss out on the opportunity. Wands tell us it’s a day of magik and creation! Make it a positive magikal creation in your world.

Additional Insight:

In order to attract happiness and abundance you must first be open to receiving it. That’s hard to do when you’re in a foul mood. When was the last time you cleansed your home, or yourself? Perhaps some early spring cleaning is needed.

It’s hard sometimes to see the blessings that come our way when we’re shrouded in doom and gloom. So buck up! Re-energize your mind/body/spirit today. It’s the last day of the New Moon and the last chance to use Grand Mother’s energy to clear away the negative and welcome in the positive. Create a new outlook and attract more of what you really want in your life.

Even the simple act of lighting a candle and saying a prayer can help more than you realize. Need some help? Ok, here’s a simple one I like to say:

GreatSpirits, creators of all that is. Please send to us this day the highest force or forces possible to clear away the negative from within our being, mind, body and spirit. Push out the stress, anxiety and frustration from our lives, out of our home and away from our property. Fill our day with love and compassion, laughter and smiles as we walk through the hours. Empower our spirit to shine brightly for a beacon of joy and happiness. And So It Is!

Now smile and get to it. Make this the best day of the week…until tomorrow, when you can make it even better than today!

And don’t forget the motto for the year!!

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Put some thought into your magik ball and you can find the answer that creates the desired result. You have the knowledge within you. All you need to do is stop scattering your thoughts and avoiding the task. Knuckle down today and contemplate what the real problem is and allow your spiritual consciousness guide you to the solution.

Additional Insight:

Even the every day nitty gritty events of life have an answer that can be gleaned from spirit. Even the little choices you make today can have profound impact on your life tomorrow or next month or even 10 years from now. Aligning your decisions with your higher spiritual conscious mind allows you to see the big picture even if you don’t realize that’s what you’re doing.

Take your time when making choices and think them through. Even a quick 5 minute meditation will help guide you in the right direction.

Trust in your instincts is important, but so is belief in yourself and your abilities. Don’t sell yourself short or undervalue your talent and experience. You are worth knowing, worth having around and worth providing input to others, be they friends, family or an employment situation.

All you need to do, is take your time, don’t rush into comment or action and look within for inspiration, ideas and solutions. You’ll find the answer and achieve greater heights if you do.

If you need help, remember The 5 Minute Alignment Meditation.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Priestess – Inverted

Mar11

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Let the healing begin. Only you can make you happy, so smile and start doing it. It’s only through compassion of the soul that we can help our inner child heal. Stop being so hard on yourself and forgive the mistakes of the past. Look within and give yourself a small token of compassion. Perhaps a pink rose or warm bubble bath, maybe one piece of chocolate to celebrate YOU.

Additional Insight:

It is our place to take care of the spirit within. No one else can do that for us. Stop the blame game, the criticizing, kicking yourself for making the wrong decisions. Last week was filled with messages of letting go. Ok..done and done. Now you must fill that void with something positive.

Engulf yourself in bright emerald green healing energy from the heart. The Heart Chakra center glows with green energy, the light of unconditional love. Let your inner love fill you with healing from the inside out.

Take a 5 minute meditation to clear out the negativity from within, pushing it out of your being and away from your physical world; your room, home, office, where ever you are. Allow the healing energy of the Divine to fill the void left behind and immerse your inner being with unconditional love of and for the self.

When you allow the Divine Universe to help you heal from within, it can also heal the other issues you have in your life that are causing you stress. It’s well worth the The 5 Minute Clearing & Healing Meditation.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Three of Cups

Mar8

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Have some compassion for yourself, your whole self (mind/body/spirit). Being honest with yourself to change negative patterns or thinking doesn’t mean you must be overly critical. Feeling guilty is simply another form of negative thinking. Show some kindness and acceptance, smile, laugh and begin a new perspective to heal old wounds. Fill your cups with love of self.

Additional Insight:

There’s no difference between someone you trust criticizing your actions and you doing the same thing to yourself. Actually you doing it is worse. You can admit you made mistakes, but there’s no reason to drag you down in an attempt to punish yourself for it or them.

What’s done is done. You can apologize, you try to make amends, but you will only make things worse if you keep trying to compensate by degrading your choices and actions. Give yourself a break. Haven’t you been through enough already? Let go means…Let Go! Get over it. Drop it. Stop dwelling on it. Move on! Don’t give it another thought!

Love yourself has been the theme of this weeks messages. That’s not a quaint message that one says when talking about their spiritual path. It’s a tangible action that will make a difference in your life! It overcomes the negative guilt feelings, the self criticisms, the sorrow over what could have been or should have been, or even should have done.

When you love yourself, you hold yourself in respect. You show yourself care and compassion. You build self-esteem and empower your thoughts and actions that can propel you forward to success and achievement. You create a desire to stand tall, align your mind/body/spirit with the Divine in your life and create a sense of “I am worthy”. This expression of Love of self will open doors and attract more of the same into your being, and into your life.

You’re worthy of being loved. You’re worthy of being appreciated. You’re worthy of achieving your goals. You’re worthy of attaining abundance in mind, body, spirit. And yes that includes financial and material success as well. You are worthy! Start believing it and allow the energy of Divine Creation into your day. You might find the magik of the Triple Goddess..already within you.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Death

Mar7

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Life is filled with cycles that start and end on a regular basis. Each chapter brings opportunity for growth and a chance to gain a step closer to enlightenment. The future is not something to be feared simply because you’re closing the past. Some of the things behind you, need to be left there for your own good. Shed a tear and move on.

Additional Insight:

There are many chapters in our book of life. Some we write and some we’re merely passing characters in someone else’s play. Those little scene often start quickly, run for a time and end just as quickly. We never, if ever give them a second thought.

But then there are those chapters that we give special meaning to and we hope they run their course and turn out the way we dream. When they do, we enjoy the ride and smile, but we often take them for granted.

When they don’t we set them in a pool of drama hold regrets, sorrows, what if’s, what would have, or what should haves. None of which would have made a difference, but we fool ourselves into thinking they would.

It’s ok to shed a tear or two over what was. No matter what it was, the loss of a family member, a pet, a relationship or a job, it served it’s purpose in your chapter and it was time for those involved to move on. It doesn’t matter what it was, or how important it was in your life. Relationships come and go. Arguments don’t last for ever, unless you allow them to control your life and thoughts.

Each time you say “I won’t let them get away with this”, you are placing that anchor deeper into the ground. You’re making it that much harder to let it go and become free of its control over your success and change for the better. Each time you think of that resentment, that negative phrase or the hateful word, you are giving it more power over you. And no manner of positive thinking will release you into the future until you have freed yourself from that heavy weighty anchor of pain.

It’s time for you to move on. We may not understand the reasons behind the final scene. We may not know “why” until we’re gone and rest in the realm of spirit. But if we dwell on those things now, in this lifetime, at this point the circle, we can cause the wheel to fall backwards and become stuck in the mud.

Cry your tear today. Then pick yourself up, dust yourself off and the mirror and tell yourself “You’re going to be ok”, “You’re strong and you will move forward”, “I AM ready to move into the future and discover the adventure that’s waiting for ME to arrive”, “I can, because I’m one with the Divine Universal Creation”, “I love me and that’s what is most important today”.

Now stop the sorrow, worry and negative talk. Smile and look into the next minute, the next hour and the next day. DO what you need to do to move to the next chapter of your adventure.

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

It’s ok to hide out a little today and sneak some special healthy treats for yourself. Whither its fruit or a long quiet bubble bath, you deserve the playful time. Do a little dreaming, smile and make up a fanciful tale about faeries and flying. Whatever your happy relaxation is..sneak a little of it into your day.

Additional Insight:

Everyone needs an escape from the stress and anxiety of life. With no TV, no radio blaring in your ear. Simple quiet solitude to relax and dream can help you re-energize your thoughts and help to relax the stress in your body.

Sit by the fire or next to a babbling brook and listen to the sounds of nature fill your ears. Talk to the trees and the birds and see what they have to offer for the day. You might learn something, about them and about you.

Let your inner child come out and play, have some fun and let go of the stress for an hour or two. Or four. Let yourself smile again with the simple joys life can bring to you.
