Today’s
card is the Six of Air from the Vision Quest Tarot. Instead of sailing away in a small boat to
seek calmer waters and repose on a
distant shore, this card is asking me to stop right here, right now and ask
myself: how I am doing? How do I feel? What is on my mind? What does my body
tell me? Do I live accordingly to my inner truth? What is my inner truth? etc.
The main question is: Do I live a balanced and harmonious life or are there one or more aspects
which deserve some loving attention from my part.
Yes, I suppose
there are parts of me that feel a bit out of balance. The main issue is my lack
of discipline to maintain a spiritual practice and my frustration about
it. This pattern is also applicable to
my creative endeavors. It’s funny because going to the gym doesn’t cause me any
problems at all. So what to do about it?
The Spiritual
Warrior comes to the rescue. It’s funny because I don’t get a warrior vibe from
this card at all. I suppose his battle is with his inner demons. He is on a
quest for inner peace and balance. He listens to his intuition which tells him
which way to go and what to do next. His heart is open for guidance from Spirit.
This card teaches me not to plan so much ahead but to take life step by step
and to try to be fully aware of where I am right now. Like many of us my day
can be very chaotic and busy and filled with distractions and requests for
attention. So often my mind is all over the place. Then I feel frustrated because
the things I like most are the ones that stay on the back burner. So for today I
am going to present with and enjoy what I am doing without worrying if everything
I want to do gets done. Tomorrow is another day with new opportunities.
A quest for
inner peace will last a lifetime.
