Lately I've been rather enchanted by the Wildwood tarot, so for today
another draw from this gorgeous deck. It is the Knight of Arrows – Hawk. Although a
hawk can be very aggressive, today his vigilance stands out to me. Yesterdays post
was all about being generous with love and kindness but in the meantime being aware of my own pitfall: giving too much. This knight is an
energy which can help me to look after myself in this process. He has an enormous
overview of the situation. He can detach himself by watching everything from a
great distance and if necessary he can strike without a single doubt because he
is so certain about himself. It can be a good thing for me to mirror some of
his fearlessness, confidence and self awareness. He will be my inner knight in
shining armor, My defender.
Because
this was quite a fierce card I thought, lets pull one from the Faeries’ oracle
to soften it up and I've got, don’t laugh, The Laume. Her keywords are: Unconditional Giving and Unconditional Loving. It is a good thing to stop
focusing on the self once in a while and start giving to others without
expecting anything in return. The Universe has a way a keeping the balance so
we don’t have to worry about that. This is
exactly the same message as I have written in yesterday’s post. And then my
eldest called from work, while I was writing this post, to ask me if I could buy
some printing paper and bring it to her. “Of course” I said. “no trouble at all”.
I took my bike and did what she had asked me. In return I got the biggest smile,
some sunshine, singing birds and so much
more. J
PS. When I
was upstairs in my room. I saw the Queen of Rainbows on my altar; Flowering. She is my
embrace card for this month And now these messages about being generous with love and kindness make so much more sense…
