Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was a #DailyTrip session from the Calm app.  I’ve not done one of these sessions before and it was a nice change of pace.  It explored the space around you and feeling “out” into the distance through hearing.  For me, this extended into energy work, and the ten minutes seemed to fly by as I explored what I could feel though the different aspects and facets that the session walked me through.

To be honest?  I was worried at the title being “The Space Cave” that it was going to be some sort of astral travel thing or outer space based, but it was more about expanding your awareness within the space you are in, and connecting with the present and the world around you as well as within you in order to find peace.

Today’s draw is the King of Cups, which is traditionally a representation of a projective alpha energy, personality, or person in the area of one’s emotions, relationships, creativity, and intuition. This often translates into themes that have to do with authority figures with roles that allow their compassion and understanding to shine.

Usually when you see a predator type animal looking at fish, you think, “oh God, there’s gonna be a massacre”. Yet, here in the imagery of this card, what we see is a happy raccoon, just resting above the surface of the water with chin in hand as he watches the golden fish swim below. He isn’t disturbing them, just watching with pleasure.

The imagery in this card teaches us to not make assumptions. Remember that we all have the ability to be understanding and compassionate, and to take joy in those emotions. By fostering them in ourselves, we show the world around us that we aren’t just approachable, but trust worthy as well.

Lionharts’ #TheJanuaryTarot 2023 Year of Evolution Challenge Prompt
Question for January 15th:

Where can I use a different perspective?

Capricorn and Spring – You could benefit from a reassessment of your goals. What do you really desire? Where has this changed over time and how can you align yourself appropriately to achieve these things? What wants, desires and needs are no longer relevant to your current self and can be set aside? It’s time to take a fresh look at things and reassess.

How can I begin to explore this new perspective?

Waxing Crescent and Aquarius – Don’t discount the power of others to lend you strength and help you in puzzling out the truth you seek. You are not “in this alone” and need to be sure to allow others in to help you in evaluating things.

Although I did a few things for the upcoming orders day tomorrow, I mostly just set all that aside and tried to relax and enjoy a bit of a break instead.
