We hosted another successful New Year's Eve Dinner. The food was highly complimented and everyone except we hosts went up for seconds and maybe even thirds. We rang in the new year watching our local broadcaster and their live coverage of the first new year's eve celebration in Vancouver that included two fireworks shows, one short two minute burst at 9pm for families with young children and a ten minute burst of pyrotechnics at the stroke of midnight.
Today, I briefly meditated with flickering candle flame and the swirling smoke of "Spiritual Guides" incense and these are the Tarot Cards revealed to me this morning:
CARD of the Day: “9 of Coins: Rewards. Enjoying the fruits of your labour. Well-deserved enjoyment.”
Time to celebrate our achievements of 2015. And if I look back over the year I can see many areas where I improved my life, my outlook on life, my acceptance of how fluid life is as well as what my life is about and what I to do in life. A part of this is to take a look my...
...CARD of the Year: “VII The Chariot: Among the highs and lows of life, make sure you enjoy the highs. At the top of one's game. Seizing an opportunity. Having everything under control (barely).” and then a...
...quick look to "Know Thyself" using the Wildwood Tarot:
Who am I? "8 The Stag:
"The Stag, forest king and guardian, half human and half animal and verdant with greenery, looks out from the card with a steady and calm gaze. He holds a polished hafted axe and shield. His horns reach into the sky and are mirrored in the branches of the tree, before which he stands as a reminder of our cosmic connection to the universe and its manifestation in all organic life on the planet. The polished axe head is a manifestation of the human will to change the environment - and not always for the better, so a weighing-up of action and responsibility is necessary. The shield, which bears the image of the symbolic Major Oak, reminds us that we must preserve and protect our natural resources."
I am human, animal, and nature spirit.
"On a personal level, some kind of adjustment or interaction has taken place. The key word here is 'responsibility'. We must, as individuals, constantly observe the rules and regulations of society, and these can fluctuate as the views and knowledge of civilization change. Whether on a political or moral level, we subconsciously know when a realignment of our perception is due. This is a time to welcome the justice that has arrived with the coming of spring and the fire of creation. Face the coming season with honesty and integrity and trust to right and appropriate action."
I must accept responsibility for my life and my actions and with such recognition always keep my thoughts, words, deeds and actions in check so as to honour and respect my human, animal, and nature spirit "cosmic connection to the universe and its manifestation in all organic life on the planet".
What are my needs? "King of Stones, Wolf:
"Revered as a ruthless tracker and hunter, the Wolf has had a special symbolism for thousands of years and was the subject of ancient Pictish stone carvings. Comfortable in the dark and cold of winter, it was seen as a guardian of the dead on their journey through the night to the otherworld."
"Love of the land and of the natural world guides much of what you do. You look often to the wisdom of others and to traditional values to colour your life choices. Security brings pleasure; loyalty crowns every endeavour. Trading, speculation, Mathematical ability, Loyalty and conservation, Steadfastness, Robust health, Determination."
How do I go about meeting my needs? "Seven of Vessels, Mourning:
"This is a time to honour what is dead and mourn for what has gone. Learn the lesson of letting go by offering thanks for the cherished memories and being at peace with the past."
"Mourning begins the process of recovery after failure or bereavement. This process may be unconscious, for we often do not realize what things were significant to us until they are gone. Mourning serves to ritualize the process of being at peace with loss and honour the passing of what is important and significant in a personal relationship. It allows the tidal flow of emotions to rise and fall naturally through the psyche, and bring a sense of closure or completion and peace. This may take time, of course, and some losses are felt more acutely than others as mourning is a very personal and individual process, sometimes taking years to complete. In Ireland, the wake exemplifies one way of processing and dealing with loss by turning the ritual into a celebration of life and achievement. The celebration of the completed journey and the beginning of a new one has been a part of the human mourning process since the dawn of time. Whatever the loss, whoever the wake id being held for, let them go with love, and honour their passing with fond memories. Hold the golden, beautiful moments of life close and let their passing not go without a note of reverence for a life fully lived."
I need to "honour what is dead and mourn for what has gone" and "learn the lesson of letting go by offering thanks for the cherished memories and being at peace with the past". For these are the necessary actions I need to take in order to really move ahead with the achievement of my goals instead of having them always be just barely out of reach. Now I have a reliable home on wheels to combine with the knowledge and wisdom gained over the past year as well as the recognition of the role I must play in this life.
This combined with the Tarot Energy for the coming year as in the...CARD of the Year: “VII The Chariot: Among the highs and lows of life, make sure you enjoy the highs. At the top of one's game. Seizing an opportunity. Having everything under control (barely)” points to a cosmic desire for me to see my goals through to the end...honouring my desire and need to teach, coach, and guide people on their (renewed) spiritual quests as the cosmic transformation and shift occurs as the "Force" is awake and WE ARE the "Force" spreading much needed light, love, and peace around the globe.
Thank You Spirit.
Blessed Be.
