The 'Five of Arrows' and Moving Beyond Distractions with Clear Intentions and Goals

Tuesday, August 30, 2016.  Trying to get back to functioning normally but it's a struggle.  Early Sunday evening I became violently ill.  I don't remember a time where I was ever as sick as I have been over the past day and a half.  I'm feeling better today but am still weak, my stomach is somewhat settled and the headache and short-circuit like feeling I had in the brain is almost gone.  I could hardly formulate thoughts yesterday and at times I could barely speak.  What a way to end a vacation.

Then as if that is not enough calling in sick is almost a job ending endeavour.  When my employer called me back to check to see if I was actually sick or not the insinuation was that I was likely not sick at all.  And this was made worse because another employee also called in sick.  Such is the life of a small business owner especially when you run a tight ship with barely enough employees to run the place.  I'm expecting somewhat of nasty call today from them at some point today as in their minds no one should ever be sick.

I called in sick again this morning as I'm barely functioning and my partner is now sick so perhaps what I have is contagious.

We've been up on and off since 5:30 this morning.  I'm trying to function but find that I get a bit nauseous and dizzy if I move about too quickly.

However I must say that I'm inspired to feel better every time I catch a glimpse of the background photo on my laptop.  It's a photo of Serenity parked at the Westbay Marine Village in Victoria.

I feel uplifted and ready to move on to a new stage of life, where I help people...

...Thank You Spirit...

...interestingly enough the entire week we were down in Mexico I felt whole and complete to the point where I was no longer an employee of a company but rather self-employed or more aptly put employed by those seeking my services...light, love, peace, compassion, and empathy...many of my dreams were inspirational and I was talking with many different people through the gift of Spirit and Tarot and as much as I was helping them, they were also helping me.

Spirit Is and today's Wildwood Tarot Energy is the "Five of Arrows: Frustration is the enemy of any pursuit that requires self-control and stillness.  It can be frustrating to hear rumours or lies spread but the cool and level-headed hunter will not be distracted by such trivia.  It may take some practice to understand that anything that takes emotional focus away from achieving a real and deserved goal is just that: a distraction.  If others are attempting to cause such distractions, you will only feed their ego and help their cause by reacting and acknowledging their efforts.  Take a deep breath and steady your mind and see clearly what the goal is.  Sometimes, humour can defuse and deflect the effects of frustration.  Take a moment to laugh at yourself and see the irony in situations that cause such distractions.  See the futility of games played against you to frustrate your efforts and coolly go about your business with a mature and steady intention.  Frustration is ungrounded energy that works against you and is better deployed in resolving your own challenges.  Take time to steady your aim and ignore your detractors.  Stay on target and loose your arrows at your goals with a cool and purposeful precision."

I'm feeling and hearing loud and clear the message of today's Tarot Energy, the "Five of Arrows", where I need to "Take time to steady" my "aim and ignore" my "detractors."  I need to "Stay on target and loose" my "arrows at" my "goals with a cool and purposeful precision."

No worries about being sick or calling in sick and no worries about what my employers think or the actions they may take because of this.  I'm sick, plain and simple.  Well both my partner and I are sick.  Sickness happens in life, that's a fact!

My goal is clear, being a Spiritual Guidance Counsellor and helping people find their true callings and paths in life through rediscovering/remembering their human spirits and their connection to the universe.

Thank You Spirit.

Namaste.
