Different Cards - Same Message


Today’s card is the Three of Cups from the Druidcraft Tarot. A happy cheerful card, well suited for the Holiday season. Although in this deck the characters are male instead of female, I always identify it with my daughters and myself and of course for now also with my SIL. 
When I asked for advice on how to create such a loving and joyful atmosphere in my house, I got The Wheel: In this depiction we see a woman literally carving out space and time for herself. She is casting a circle with herself in the center of it. From there she can observe and respond mindfully to any given situation at hand without becoming overwhelmed by it. 
Finally I asked what the result would be if I would follow the advice of the Wheel? And then The Star jumped out of my deck. Hope an renewal, Cleansing and healing and wishes come true. When I trust enough that all will be well and I will be able let go of my Holiday anxiety, then I will find that inner peace and quiet: a well brimful of inspiration and loving guidance

  2. Love that the "how to" is literally a woman making a bit of sacred space to enclose herself in. And being on a beach, the tide will come and erase it eventually, but for a time, she'll have that bubble.

      Yes each time she will have to create her space again; built it with self love and lots of care :)

  3. I love how the images gave such clear messages. Sometimes you don't need to dig deep in order to find the answers, they are right on the surface.

  4. It can feel so hard to carve out time for yourself when there's so much going on and when you want to do so much for others. Still, without that space for yourself, you will not be able to give as much with a generous heart, because of feeling constricted in yourself. At least, that's how I always find it: I love my boys a lot more after I've had a few hours away from them :D

    1. Ha ha That sounds familiar! When my girls were much younger I loved them the most when they just had woken up and when they were in their Pj's ready to got to bed :D

  5. This is a lovely reading. The fact that the woman in The Wheel is drawing that circle also makes me think of your art and how nurturing it is for you.
