The 'Three of Arrows, Jealousy' and Feeling Yet Transcending Pain, Loss, Suffering, and Setbacks

Monday, November 9th, 2015.  I spent most of my day yesterday piddling around with my model railroad and in a certain way being spiritual too!  I was cutting many pieces of paper in an effort to make a bridge or trestle and some supports for whatever form the crossing will take.  I quite enjoyed doing it and look forward to getting back to it.

Then it was off to bed after a great dinner and a relaxing evening.  I slept well although I did awake a few times throughout the night.  I was sleeping though when the alarm sang us awake.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today's Tarot Energy is "Three of Arrows, Jealousy: The origins of jealousy can be infinitely varied, uniquely subjective and deeply rooted in socio-economic or psychological soil, but whether born of a broken heart, a broken dream or a broken economic system, beware of surrendering humility and forgiveness to feelings of envy or jealousy.  The most commonly associated emotional drive linked to jealousy is loss.  However perceived by the individual it behoves both the 'victim' of jealousy and the subject suffering feelings of envy to look deeply into the nature of their own motives and responsibilities.  For the jealous or possessive, there is also sometimes a feeling of 'entitlement' attached to the issue.  This can be attributed to concepts of social or familial expectations born of ill-conceived peer guidance, or the failure to enforce social responsibilities and parameters.  As we mature, we discover that there will always be some who seem to have more, or are gifted with copious good fortune.  The healing balm for envy is humility, acceptance and forgiveness, even in the face of bitter rivalry and angry, just as the constant refocusing of your energy into a positive and creative momentum in your own life is the best healer for the effects of jealousy."

A reminder to be humble and forgiving in all that we do.  We are all human after all.  And regardless of our view of ourselves we likely have just as many human failings as everyone else does.  So if we are seeking understanding and forgiveness we must be willing to be just as understanding and forgiving as those who understand and forgive us.

Yes, we can acknowledge pain, loss, suffering and setbacks, allow ourselves to feel it but we must deal with and transcend it and move forward with our lives.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.
