Time To Start Moving

/ Twist the Leaf / 1 Comment

Today’s meditation was skipped.

Cook's Tarot - Three of WandsToday’s draw is the Three of Wands, which is traditionally a representation of movement, progress, proactivity, and expansion. It is the moment that comes after the planning has happened, when it is time to be spurred into action.

The message in today’s card is an effort to spur you forward. It says, “No more stagnancy, movement is needed. Take the steps needed to get your momentum rolling. Motivation will follow.

I’ve been feeling very sluggish and complacent lately in life, and the card today is bringing focus to this issue, and giving encouragement that it’s time to start moving now.

Daily Self Kindness

In the great building flood of the day, I chose dry land.  I also chose to get my own car out of the mess before going to start knocking on doors and dragging other people out of bed to move their cars as well.

Today is the full moon, and like all new moons and full moons, I did a spread aligned to the moon’s current themes as a part of my recognition of the moon’s cycle and influences upon us. Today’s spread is about the medicine within, and brought to you by Ethony‘s Tarot by the Moon series.

Full Moon in Sagittarius Tarot Reading with the Mr Otter Tarot

What impulses need taming?

Nine of Wands – Take a moment to realize when you’re being combative. The reason might be because you’re trying to protect something that is important to you, but make sure you’re not going too far.

Where can I best direct my energy?

King of Cups – Don’t allow your emotions to run away with you. Stability is needed, even when it’s matters of intuition and the heart. Remember that sometimes you may need to tap into others that are more adept with their emotions (such as Gideon) to help you find that balance and stability.

How can I best redirect my aggression?

The Fool – Have some fun with it and lighten the mood. Everything doesn’t have to be serious all the time, and lightening the mood when you’re feeling aggressive can help turn that energy into something fun and enjoyable instead. It’s okay to be silly sometimes.

How can I add a little spice to my life?

Seven of Cups – You actually have to make the choice to loosen up. Adding a little spice to your life isn’t something that just happens, but is a goal to strive for just like any other. Be sure to exam if that’s really what you want before you take the leap, though.

What personal spiritual belief needs re-examining?

Ace of Wands – Not everything needs to be chased after in order to be accomplished. And not every new idea or inspiration needs exploration. It’s okay to let one go every once in a while.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Six of Cups – Cherish those important souls in your life and the history you share.

Full Moon in Sagittarius Lenormand Reading with the Hilda Lenormand

How are you being asked to expand your horizons?

Coffin and Ship – Move away from unhealthy behaviors as you recover from being sick. This illness can be seen as a breaking point, a place where you can break away from bad behaviors and move forward fresh.

What will help you step out of your comfort zone?

Scythe and Clouds – Cut down your uncertainty at the knees. Your inner narrative that whispers doubts and concerns in your ear needs to be silenced, and only decisive action will make that happen.

In what way are you being called to shift your mindset?

Tree and Mountain – Good health (physical or mental) is not a lost cause, merely an obstacle strewn path. Keep working toward a healthier you, even when it feels like the obstacles in your way are insurmountable.

What clarity and wisdom are available to you now?

House and Dog – Take comfort in those you trust most.  Lean on them and spend time with them.  You are not an island. You need them… and they need you too.
