Gagged, Bound, and Feeling Helpless

/ Twist the Leaf / 1 Comment

Today’s meditation was skipped.

Erotic TarotToday’s draw is the King of Feathers (Swords), which is traditionally a representation of a projective alpha energy, personality, or person in the area of one’s intellect, education, logic, ambition, and communication.

You know?  Most of the day I thought this was about the King in this imagery.  But as the day draws to a close? I find that this card wasn’t about embodying the energy of the King at all.  It was a warning that I was going to be taken down and made to feel like the little bitch in chains.

It’s been a rough evening.  I definitely feel like the little bitch on the floor, gagged and without recourse other than to just “take it”.  And so I take a breath and tell myself “tomorrow will be a better day”.  Not sure how many times I’ll have to say it to make myself believe it… but I’m trying.

Questions for February 10th

Erotic TarotWhat is something I should {try to} master?

The Fool and Queen of Roses (Coins) – Being more carefree and free spirited with your support of self and others. Kindness is not a limited resource. You can spend as much as you like and there will always be more. So don’t be sparing with yourself and generous with others… be generous with both.

Why?

Two of Candles (Wands) and King of Roses (Coins) – It will help you to plotting a path to greater “riches”. Remember that wealth is not always about monetary gain, in this instance it’s far more about stability and finding better footing.

Daily Self Kindness

I searched out my wrist brace today and made sure I wore it when I went to pick up the two shelves.  My wrist is feeling quite a bit better.  Still tender, but not screaming.

Delicate
and fragile
vulnerability
creeps
to cover the
hard stone
that lies beneath
developing
little by little
into a fuzz of
crystals
that a mere
breath
can destroy

Essential Playing Cards Lavender Edition

What must be cleared out to make room for this coming cycle?

Queen of Diamonds and Four of Hearts – Be ruthless in purging yourself of your current draw toward stagnancy. That draw is your depression talking, and it doesn’t need any encouragement or given a place where it’s allowed to grow and flourish unchecked.

What would benefit from a pause to let the dust settle?

Ace of Diamonds and Ten of Clubs – Don’t add any new brilliant ideas right now, you already have enough on your plate. Just concentrate on what is before you instead.

What opportunities can grow in the stillness?

King of Hearts and Six of Clubs – “Happy wife, happy life.” No, the phrase does not entirely fit, but that’s exactly what we have here. These cards indicate that the opportunity given is more time with Gideon, and thus more harmony in your life over all.

When new energy arrives, how can I direct it for greatest effect?

Ten of Diamonds and Three of Clubs – Go for the gold. You want these projects on your plate done. Times of stillness allow you to plan, so that when new energy comes in you can bolt off the starting block full speed ahead with your target in focus.

How can I prepare for the next cycle when it’s time?

Four of Clubs and Six of Hearts – Enjoy the rest and time in harmony with others. Don’t worry about what’s coming, just live in the moment and let it come at its own pace.
