October
27: When it’s slightly dark and the cold air is hazy and foggy you can get lost
easily when you are walking in nature. How do I find my way home?

| Oracle of Shadows and Light |
The card that will be guiding me home is Sea Storm
from the Oracle of Shadows and Light. The subtext is: Calm amidst chaos. It
seems my inner lake (yesterday’s post) isn't always that calm. This is a stormy
weather with lightning and high waves. It is easy to panic, to be afraid and
feel lost. There is no lighthouse in the distance You’re all alone. But as I've
said yesterday, that should be enough. If you have been to your inner lake
often enough you know the feeling you have to regain. And through that feeling
you can reach you inner wisdom. That’s your guide out of this chaos. Your inner
calm, your intuition knows what to do, what to say, how to act, to guide you
home and to calm down the wild raging sea.
My true home is my inner source of wisdom where anything is possible, where
magic is real and mermaids guide me home. This is where I can be myself at all
times. So although the outer reality looks chaotic and wild and scary and your
feelings are running wild, the best
thing you can do is dive deeper and deeper to the bottom of the sea, the basis
of you existence. That’s where you’ll find peace and quiet. Just as the bottom
of the lake is as calm as it surface, this rough sea has a calm undercurrent too.
Sea
Storm is one of my favorite cards from this the deck. I love the beautiful
blues and the contrast between the tranquility of the mermaid and the emotional
wild waves around her.
Often my
Sunday mornings are like emotional tidal waves. So I am grateful for this reminder to my own inner calm.
My instinct when there is chaos is to paddle like hell; it's hard to remember to sink below the ruckus to the calm sandy bottom (literally grounding myself!). :)
ReplyDeleteIt is just as with your fox card. We have to be reminded over and over again :)
DeleteThe Tarot is quite good at reminding us of certain things. Moden living confuddles our brain, but our 78 Friends are good at helping us keep on the straight and narrow :)
ReplyDeleteAnd don't forget their extended circles (oracle decks). The way they combine together is so great.:)
DeleteI love this deck ever so much. I remember the first time I saw the cards, energy jolt! They are unfailingly honest and never beat about the bush I found.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same. My daughters were the ones who made me hesitate to buy it for they were calling is a Bratz doll deck! :)
DeleteLove the idea of the mermaids guiding you home :)
ReplyDeleteIt does makes you think about being rescued by dolphins :)
