For my
daily draw I’ve used the Celtic Lenormand by Chloe McCracken and Will
Worthington. First I’ve shuffled my deck thoroughly and then I searched for the sun card to represent the intense heat of this week. Then I picked up the two
cards on either side of the sun, asking how to get through this week as good as possible.
And I drew:
anchor + house and birds +letter:
Lenormand
is sometimes such a blunt and direct tool and can tell you exactly what you already know. As
if it is telling you: “why do you bother me with trivial questions with such obvious answers! I am
capable of so much more." And maybe it is right; I do tend to forget this tool
when I need guidance for something. I also notice that I often return to the
same decks and forget others entirely. And I do believe each system and each deck
has its own individual quirks and qualities so this is a good reminder pay some more attention to my neglected decks. But I digress so let’s look at the
cards:
Anchor
and house.
Stay at home, especially during the hottest hours of the day.
Birds and
letter
Write a
blogpost, journal, phone a friend and talk with M about daily fun stuff and don’t
start complaining about how hot it is.
Anchor and
letter
In Dutch
we have a saying: “Who writes will remain” so I will take this as an encouragement
to journal more elaborated this week. When it is so hot I tend to skip the juicy details
and keep my entries more concised.
House and
birds.
Social gatherings at home. You're all invited! :D
Just tell me when and where - I may not be there physically, but I will be there in spirit! This summer has seemed like such a long one; I can't believe it is suddenly coming to a close.
ReplyDeleteHaha I know you are!! No, me neither; I've almost given up hope. :)
DeleteMy friend in England is nearly prostrate with the record heat. and the deniers go on and on about no greenhouse effect.
ReplyDeleteI love this deck, although I'm at a loss on how to work with lenormands. Mind has been overheated too many times!
They are experts in burying their heads in the hot sand.
DeleteI think you are doing quite well with it as far as I can tell when you write about them :)
I too commented on Summer. The days are winding down and soon we will say goodbye to the long hot summer days. Yay! I work from home so thats a blessing. I often think of those that have to toil under the Sun.
ReplyDeleteI really like the Celtic Lenormand. So much interesting visuals in such small cards.
Me too! My eldest daughter had to go to work all day and there's no airco.
DeleteIt's a really great deck with lots of extra cards to work with.
Ha! I love this :) Yes, it's quite to-the-point!
ReplyDeleteJust like Lenormand so often is :D
DeleteIt's such a relief that th nights are cooler now. I've spent most of summer feeling like I am about to combust!
ReplyDeleteHi hi! Very soon nights will be cooler here too.!
DeleteLovely reading. And so spot on. Enjoy the heat, or at least staying in to stay away from the heat. :)
ReplyDeleteThansk Cher! Summer is often mostly an indoors season for me. I function so much better in Autumn
DeleteI enjoy all the seasons in their own way. I've loved this hot, sunny summer, so long as there's a bit of shade and a cool drink. So much fun playing in the garden with the kids, though I'll admit a few nights the heat made it hard to sleep.
ReplyDeleteAnd I look forward to the autumn, a crispness in the air and the amazing variety of colours!
Loved your 'tell it like it is' reading, and I hope you enjoyed your journalling 😊
I envy you.:)
DeleteWhen I was younger I could function much better in the Summer. Taking my girls to the pool etc was really fun.
Luckily journaling is something I can do the whole year round
