Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was one of the #DailyCalm sessions from the Calm app.
The theme of today’s meditation was about consistency, especially in reference to one’s meditation practice. And clearly, as is obvious by my posts, this is an issue for me.
I do try, though, and I find it tinged with a taste of irony that this is the topic of the first session as I try to get back into the swing of things.
@the_mystic_star May Tarot Challenge Prompt
I am using this challenge’s prompts as affirmation prompts for my daily card. Not exactly the intended process for the challenge, but I want to give credit for where I’m getting these affirmation prompts from.
Affirmation Prompt for May 11th: Grateful
King of Cups – For me, the King of Cups often refers back to Gideon. He is the emotional floodgates that help me in managing and understanding my emotions. He is my anchor in a turbulent sea, assisting me in making sense out of the chaos.
Today’s card is a reminder of these things, and that gratitude isn’t just something you feel for another, but an actual practice. It’s something you need to consciously visit and acknowledge, and even express to others now and then.
Gideon… My gratitude for you and your love, for your guidance and your help and support and for all that you do for me is something I can never express well enough to make clear to you. It’s depth is too deep, it’s breadth too wide. Thank you for being mine, and for having me as yours. Thank you for being my rock and my anchor when I’m struggling to make sense of things. I may not always seem like I need it, and in fact may seem to even run away from it at times when I fall back on old habits, but I am so grateful for your presence and influence in my life. I love you.

#DiscordTarotholicsMay2024 Challenge Prompt
Question for May 10th and 11th:
What are you ignoring that needs to be dealt with?
The High Priestess and Desire – For a while now you have been able to feel your small side creeping back up from deep within, but you have been ignoring your needs in this area due to your desire to stay in top space.
How can you best begin dealing with what’s being ignored?
Four of Cups and Prepare – Get back on a regular meditation schedule instead of continuing to skip it. That structure is important, especially so when you’re in that smaller mindset. Your meditation practice helps you create a solid foundation for embracing the small within you and letting go of control without it harming you in the process.
In other words, regular meditation makes you more resilient to subdrop.
DECK USED: MOONLIGHT TAROT AND JOURNEY ORACLE
As you can see, I meditated today for the first time in quite a long time. I also added the “happy baby” pose back into my physio practice today for the first time since my surgery.
