| Crystal Visions Tarot |
This morning I have drawn the seven of Pentacles
from the Crystal Visions Tarot. The woman in the picture is sitting between the
roots of the tree. It looks almost as if she is merging with it, like the
dryads in the branches. Her eyes are closed. Is she looking at her bowl with
picked fruits, or is she dozing off? Either way she is totally relaxed and
trusting the Pentacles to grow and ripen by themselves. There is nothing urgent
to do, no activities on the calendar. How wonderful that must be. Just taking a
well deserved break of everything and watching the world go by.
It is not
that difficult. Perhaps we have to let go of our notion we are indispensable. Let’s
be honest. Who doesn't think; I know best, I will take care of them, I will
solve that problem etc. We like to think we are needed but sometimes we also want
break free from the everyday hustle and sit back, relax and take stock of our
lives and ask ourselves: How can we be more at ease, less stressed out and
overworked and most important how can we become less important in our own
perception? Just try to let the grass
grow by itself and trust everything will be okay in the end.
I vote for letting the grass grow by itself, hee hee!
ReplyDeleteMe too. :D
DeleteWhat helped me get by the idea that if I wasn't there life would stop was realizing when heads of state and world corporations die...there isn't so much as a blip. Life goes right on without them because that is the only task life has. I quit my miserable hateful horrible job the next day. And it felt so good I wished I could go back and do it again. :) It was an important lesson and helped me let go of a lot of baggage I was dragging along behind me.
ReplyDeleteHaha I did the same thing once! I felt so empowered. To be able to make that choice. I was replaced the next day :D
DeleteWhat a great story, Sharyn!
DeleteI really like how you've described the energy of this card. There is something so liberating is simply letting things go, even on a daily, mundane level - just deciding that it's simply not worth it to worry/stress/assume too much responsibility - whatever it is. Find the joy in that moment, knowing that some things will work themselves on their own if you give it time.
ReplyDeleteGiving it time is for me probable the hardest thing since I am such a control freak :D
DeleteI could stand to make a poster of this card so I can remind myself daily!!
ReplyDeletethat's a great idea!
DeleteYou are definitely convincing me that I need this deck with each post of the gorgeous imagery.
ReplyDeleteI think you would love to work with it. I've never had any regrets. Perhaps you could watch the review from Daily tarot girl. It is a very good one
Delete"how can we become less important in our own perception?"
ReplyDeleteI love this because it is something we all suffer from, our overwhelming sense of self importance. I think sometimes it can be very cathartic to really just take ourselves out of this mindset and realise that there is so much more to see and do that does not have to be all about 'me' and can be all about the outward experience whether that is relaxing or napping or just taking a moment.
I couldn't agree more. but I have to admit it is difficult to set you ego aside
