Eating Your Emotions

/ Twist the Leaf / 1 Comment

Today’s meditation was skipped.

Forty Proof Tarot - The DevilToday’s draw is the Devil card of the Major Arcana. This card is traditionally read as an indication of temptations, addictions, obsessions, and other themes that have to do with self-destruction through indulgence.

Look at the incisors on that devil.  That’s what really stands out to me in this card today.  Not the chains or the horns or the hair… but the incisors.

Today’s card is a reminder that you need to feed your body sustenance it can use.  The better the fuel you feed it, the better you will feel.   It can be hard sometimes to stay away from those more unhealthy options, especially if there’s a connection in you between food and emotions.

Make sure that today is one of those days where you are good to your body… and not a slave to your emotions whispering about all the cookies and goodies that are waiting for you in the pantry.

Forty Proof Tarot - Queen of Cups, King of Cups, Two of WandsThe storm rages, and emotions swirl like debris in the air as the winds rail against the tower and the leaves cling tightly to the small moment of shelter they find. (King of Cups)

And in the tower the king sits and plots his course, listening to the wind roar and hearing the enraged roars and howls that tell him she will never stop but instead has plans to tear this world apart, brick by brick and branch by branch. (Two of Wands)

And yet he waits through the storm, hearing her calls until she is ready to gentle her rage and whisper of sunny days once more. (Queen of Cups)

Seven of Cups atop The Lovers – Stop worrying so much about what everyone else needs and pay attention to what is right and good for you for a while.

It’s okay to put yourself first sometimes.

Two of Wands and Spirit (Queen) of Cups – Make sure that you’re plotting a course forward that includes emotional support and kindness toward yourself and others.

Heron Energy Lenormand Reading with the Magickal Folklore Lenormand

How can I ground myself in order to better navigate my emotions?

Bear and Man – This is Gideon, and the advice here is to allow him to have that place in your life as your protector. He is fiercely protective over you and provides you with a safe place to let yourself be vulnerable.  Ground yourself in that sense of safety and protection he provides so that you can allow your emotions to flow more freely.

Where am I being called toward more reflection?

Ship and Birds – Later this month you have a trip coming up that needs a good deal of planning and preparation.  Make sure that you are putting in your due diligence to make sure that the trip starts off well and that there is as little disorganization and chaos as possible.

How might expanding outwards towards others lighten the weight I’m carrying?

Bouquet and Fox – Those you are close to can assist you in weeding out others with not so pure of intentions.  Listen to your loved one’s sage council and take a moment to try and see what they see, for they are trying to warn you about someone who does not have your best interests at heart.

What needs to be shed to make new growth possible?

Heart and Stars – You have a habit of giving people with bad intentions too much of your hope and faith.  That faith in humanity and the goodness of everyone can become a problem, as it ends up knocking you down again and again. It’s time to shed the naivety that ties your hands and leaves you too hopeful for goodness from corners where there’s none to spare.
