The Moon – Don’t swim into deep water yet

Tarot of the Sidhe,The Moon, Emily Carding
Today’s card is The Moon from the Tarot of the Sidhe by Emily Carding. This card feels a bit melancholic to me but after yesterday’s Maker Five –Winter’s Bite, it is definitely an improvement. Yesterday was a very challenging day for me which has made it quite clear to me that even though I have learned a lot already, I still have a long way to go. There is some serious water gazing waiting for me. What stands out for me the most in this card is the promise of support from Spirit. We see a woman sitting beside a moonlit pool and she sees a whole different world in its reflection. Beneath the surface she is not alone and maybe she is coming to this pool to be reminded of this because during the business of Summer’s sunlit days there is often no time for reflection.

This card advises me to sit with my feelings and not to run away from them. It is not necessary to explore them on a deeper level. Not yet. Acknowledging them is okay for now. Just sitting there and watching my reflection is progress enough.

  1. Being able to sit and watch feelings instead of running or suppressing them in some way is huge - most people aren't able to do this!
    I love how you have been positioning your cards in the garden for photos; this deck seems to fit right in to a natural setting!

    1. Thanks Bev! I must say being on Instagram is very inspiring for me to take more pictures.
      Sitting and allowing thing to be as they are is difficult, but I cannot keep running either :)
      Hugs
