Let Them Learn

IMG_E1670Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was a Daily Calm session from the Calm app.

The topic of today’s session was non-contention.  That is, how life can move a bit smoother if we choose to allow the struggles and obstacles in life to flow around us and us go with the flow… rather than fighting against the current.

Not everything has to be a fight, and being oppositional all the time holds a great deal of unnecessary struggle and strife.

IMG_E1671Today’s draw is the Justice card, which is traditionally a representation of repercussions and other themes that have to do with cause and effect, and can often indicate the involvement of law enforcement or the legal system within a situation.

I like how the sharp edges in the artwork of this card match so well the theme of Justice as a whole.  That knowing look and the sharp edges of the woman make it clear that there is no mercy here, only repercussions.

Today’s card is a reminder that it’s okay to be harsh now and then.  Sometimes, for people to learn their lessons?  A little harshness is needed.  You cant sugar coat and carefully pillow things forever, or they’ll never learn.

Questions for March 3rd and 4th

IMG_E1672Caregiver Appreciation Day – What caregiver in your life is in need of loving care in return?

Cat Alice – It’s Z.  I can’t even pick out why in this card I see her in the imagery, but I do.  Not just in the pose of the Cat Alice, but even in the transposed shadows on the wall.  It’s her.

How can I provide that person the loving care that they need?

Unseen Dangers atop The Way Up – Offer her a life line. Remind her that you’re there, hand out and willing to help lift her up when she needs it.  Sometimes, that fact gets lost in murky waters and she begins to feel far too alone.

Hug a GI Day – Service comes in many forms, what service can you do for others today?

Decluttering – Give others a hand up by talking with them sincerely and helping them to sort out what is working for them from what isn’t.  This goes beyond just the sorting process, as these people in your life might also need a bit of encouragement to actually leave behind those things that aren’t working instead of keeping it all as litter in their lives.

Prompt for March 4th
: A reading by candle light.

IMG_E1673What part of me am I encouraged to show, express or share more?

Six of Cups – It’s important to connect with good memories. When you share history with others that know you and were there, they help you to not just see the good, but see the past more clearly as a whole.

Where am I to use my instincts and follow my intuition?

Four of Cups – Keep going with your meditation. It’s only been a few days, but you know that in keeping up with it, it will allow your intuition’s voice to speak more loudly.

Why is this important for me?

Ten of Wands atop The Emperor – In order to make good decisions for yourself and others, and not feel overwhelmed by it all, you need the balance that meditation provides as well as the stronger connection it provides you to your intuition.

I didn’t sleep much last night, so I gave myself license to take a couple of naps today to work at catching up on some of the sleep I’d missed.
