These
last two weeks of December I am participating the #MagicSeeker2016 Tarot challenge on IG hosted by @ghostkittenart. The prompt for today is: What energy do
I need to help me cultivate more Freedom in 2016?
Since carving out
more personal time and freedom is one of the major challenges in my life, I decided not to pull only one card but three, because all good things come in threes!
From the The Wild Unknown Tarot I pulled: The Emperor, The Sun and the Five of Wands
The Emperor advises me to keep the reins of my life in my own
hand. He is the one who makes the rules and expects both his people and himself
to abide by them. He is also not afraid to delegate or ask for help . No emperor
can do everything by himself.
I think I might benefit from some kind of schedule
or routine which will bring more structure into my days and which will help me to find
balance between activity and rest; breathing in and breathing out.
The Sun is a very welcome card for this question. Choosing
actively for joy, love and light will help me to prevent losing energy to complaining or whining
about everything I have to do or about how tired I am. Just get it done and be
happy and content afterwards. Feeling good about yourself is such a great
motivator.
The Five of Wands. This card is strongly connected to my word for 2016: Focus. The Five of Wands is an exact representation of my mind when I feel
anxious and stressed out by the many things I want to get done All my ideas and plans and whatnot are all mixed up and they
all want to be heard and executed NOW! So for 2016 I am going to try to Focus
on only a few tasks or projects at the time and the rest of my ideas will be written
down on a “You don’t have to think about this
now ” list
So all
and all some clear road signs to more freedom in 2016
The Emperor really is a great guide for this question! He can structure how you use your energy (wisely) and make decisions when there is conflict instead of getting embroiled in it. Wear that crown with gusto my friend!
ReplyDeleteI certainly will Bev. Just yesterday I tried to please everyone by trying to get dinner ready when everyone was at home.
DeleteTomorrow I am going to buy a microwave lid so dinner can be reheated if somebody is late
Never too old to learn :D
What a wonderful reading!I have really been enjoying the instagram challenges - though it's easy to sign up for more than you can manage (putting my hand up!). It's great to be among so many like-minded, supportive people on there (yourself included) :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Carol I try not to sign up for more then one at the time. Otherwise it starts to feel too much lie a chore :D
DeleteI love being on Instagram for the same reason. So far people( yourself included) have been nothing but kind there
Lovely reading of the Emperor for this question. So often, he seems about rules that restrict freedom, but it's quite true that having a clear structure can also be supportive. It can create the room for freedom by removing the stresses of having too much to do and no clear plan for it. And as you say, the Sun is just perfect!
ReplyDeleteWishing you much focus :)
Thanks Chloe. I often struggle with structure. Too much pressure I guess but I realize no structure can easily lead to chaos. So I have to find that balance you speak of.
