Huomenta!
Tänään innostuin kokeilemaan maataikakorttejani vähän uudella tavalla. Katsotaan isompaa maisemakuvaa, miltä tämän hetken tilanne nyt näyttää!
Menneisyys: DANCE - Celebration
The sacredness of any celebration is dependent upon the quality of
spirit that is present. The quality of spirit is greater to the degree
that you are fully present, with minimal inhibitions about expressing
your joy and happiness through physical movement. Focus on what you want
to celebrate. Put on some music and dance, whether slow or fast. Sing a
song while you do so. Make one up about what you most have to
celebrate.
The Spirit’s wish is for everyone to enjoy their time on Earth, and
part of that wish is to celebrate your capacity to be joyous and express
it through your body. Whether in private, with a small group of
friends, or a large communal gathering, let music, song and dance is a
part of your sacred ceremony regardless of what you are celebrating. For
truly, any celebration is sacred.

Nyt: MEADOW - Vulnerability
“The meadow in this card invites us in with its beauty and
openness. The flowers have arranged themselves in a poetic design
orchestrated by Nature, and the lush rolling fields urge us to relax and
stay for a while. Yet for some, the idea of being in such an open space
is terrifying; and in an expansive meadow like this, we may feel
exposed and defenseless; lacking the perceived safety of an enclosed
area.
For others, walking through a meadow can be an exquisitely
satisfying experience. We can feel comfortable in the openness and
visibility, enjoying the 360 degree view with nothing but the sky above.
Yes, we may still feel vulnerable, but with a twist. This is
vulnerability built on the foundation of trust rather than fear – the
capacity to trust our own instincts to tell us if there are any
potential threats we must respond to. By relying on this instinctual
knowing, we can relax and enjoy the beauty that surrounds us.
You are in a place now where you can
take risks with your feelings, and even more important, take risks with
the truth of who you are–the truth you know in your heart and soul. You
no longer need to be subjected to your conditioned fears of letting
others know who you really are.
Yes, others may judge, evaluate,
criticize, and perhaps even put you down. These are very real
possibilities. Yet by trusting that you have the strength to deal with
these reactions–rather than responding adaptively and always playing it
safe–you can more confidently allow yourself to be vulnerable. Always
holding back from expressing your truth can create an illusion of
safety, but armed with your trust and your faith, you can choose to be
vulnerable and share your authentic self.

Tulevaisuus: RAIN - Purification
“No matter whether is is a light shower or a deluge, rain
cleanses and purifies. The moisture that has evaporated from the various
bodies of water on the planet and was drawn into the atmosphere now
returns to Earth as liquid precipitation in Natures’ vast and
comprehensive water-recycling program. Depending on when and where the
rain falls, it can come as a welcome relief or a nuisance.
Even the air smells fresh after a good rain. It also brings in
clean water, which provides needed sustenance for the plants, animals,
and humans. At its most intense, rainstorms arrive as an avalanche of
water, often accompanied by great and powerful winds, with considerable
flooding and destruction as an unfortunate consequence of Nature’s
impersonal balancing act. What is purged makes way for new life to
appear.
Purifying your mind, body, and spirit is the task that is put
before you. Purify your mind by identifying a prominent belief you carry
about yourself that inhibits you from being fully engaged in life,
from showing up 100 percent of the time. Purify your heart by allowing
yourself to breathe in and out blessings and forgiveness so that you can
love even more deeply.
Let yourself feel your grief – truly feel ig – so that the rivers
of your tears become miniature baptisms that help heal the wounds in
your soul. If necessary, detoxify your body (the temple and seat of the
soul) by changing your diet, doing a cleanse for a few days, or simply
drinking more water. increasing the daily amount of water you drink with
deep appreciation for its purpose will revitalize your spirit.
It is no wonder that in some indigenous languages, water is
called “lifeblood,” as it is so essential to every form of Life on
Earth. Take some time to purify yourself.”*
