Friday 5.3.13:
After all that turmoil and change, comes a time of peace and tranquility. A time of healing. This does not mean that we are out of the dark forest, just yet. It simply means that we have found a safe place to rest. The journey is still ahead of us. The card that is influencing the energy of the day, is the Knight of Cups. This card, to me, is known as the Mystic. The Pisces.
The hidden energy card is Temperance.
Our state of existence can lead us through the darkest moments of our life. As I sit here and type, I am watching the new episode of Vampire Diaries. Yes, I know, I watch a silly Vampire show, but even a silly show can contain a message.
There are moments in my life that require me to look deep within. To find my compass that points me home. To take on the energy of the Mystic, look into my cup of Divine water, and feel the pull of my destination.
I have to become the path maker. To know that home is close.
I was listening to the song called "U.F.O." by Coldplay.
In the song he states
"Lord, I don't know which way I am going. Which way the river gonna flow. It just seems, that up stream, I keep rolling. Still got such a long way to go...."
This is the song that I think of when I see the Knight of Cups. A person of pure love, untapped in measure, and moving forward with their journey. Looking into their cup, every so often, for divine guidance. For that sign or symbol that he/she is looking out for. The Knight of Cups understands the end result, which is love, but the road seems unfamiliar. Seems long and full of danger. Dark and twisted. Yet, he still travels forward on his horse, to his destination. A destination of home.
I think that today will be about understanding the path that we have decided to walk. Understanding the tools that we carry and use on a daily basis.
One thing is for sure, that the Mystic is always headed in the right direction. Whether it is North, South, East, or West. The Mystic understands that eventually, it will all make sense, and his destination will surely be reached. Sometimes we have to take time out from our day to remember why we are walking on this particular path. To be reminded that we are always within alignment of our Divine Path. Even if it is about receiving a project you do not like at work. Or getting a flat tire on your great road trip. Things happen for a reason...and that reason is always good.
Blessed Be.
Friday 4.19.13:
The Queen of Swords sits in the position of Lizard/Dreams/Strength/Weakness.
The hidden energy card is Judgement.
I turn to my spirit guide for answers.
Me: Is this a person in my life?
Spirit Guide: No
Me: Is this an energy that will be around me?
SG: No
Me: Is this an energy that I must take on?
SG: Yes. You must live it.
When I speak to my spirit guide, there will either be a novel of information, or she will give me one word answers. How do I interpret the one word answer?
I simply understand that my Spirit Guide is giving me a definite answer and that to question it will only cause me to form doubt within the process of love and life.
I am to move through out my day and create that which is good. Good beyond belief. To move forward with everything that my heart is set on. Write...
She advised me to write what is within my heart, not within my mind. To create that which is good. To create that which is mine. I long for the past to reach the present. For that which has been, to follow suite and find my home once more. To regroup. To live within the moment of what is taking place at this time.
To write.
To feel pain of that which has passed. We all go through it. We all find peace in the moment that love presents itself to us. We think this is it. I surely can die and I will be happy. What happens when the moment is over. We wish for more. More of the same feeling within that experience.
To write.
She advises me to be inspired by what she is stating to me. It is not about the card, but it is about tapping into the energy that is around me. To write about what is happening at this very moment.
If you seek Truth, then be truth. Be like the Queen of Swords. Speak your mind. You must accept what will come from that Truth. Are you ready to accept the Truth of the situation? Even if it means that you are wrong?
That I am wrong?
She leaves me with one last thought, one last statement.
"If you wish to change that which is around you, you must start with your thoughts".
So many have spoken this truth in the past.
I do want to warn you about the shadow side of the Queen of Swords. You may want to contain the power that she has, of clarity and truth, but you must pay attention to that power. Are you using it to hurt or heal? Are you really seeking the Truth or stating your opinion?
You must be open to everything that is around you and accept that which is being presented. The moment you do this, the truth will present itself. The struggle will be no more. The tools you contain in your hand, whether it be paint, clay, Tarot Cards, Crystals, and such, will make sense and you will be inspired to create. To create that beautiful masterpiece called "You", called "Me".
Blessed Be.
