Today’s meditation was skipped.

Today’s draw is the Knight of Cups, which is traditionally a representation of an active beta energy, personality, or person in the area of one’s emotions, relationships, intuition, and creativity. This often portrays itself in a theme of going after what brings someone joy or following your imagination and creativity into new adventures.

The knight in this card’s imagery moves forward, but does so at a leisurely pace.  This card seems to be saying that you don’t have to rush.  Take your time with those things that make you happy rather than always trying to rush through them.

Like fine wine, happiness and joys of all sizes should be savored.

@the_mystic_star’s April #MysticStarChallenge Prompt
Prompts for April 12th thru 17th

What card represents the opportunities that I am currently aware of?

Four of Swords – You know you need to rest and how important that is to your well-being. Make sure that you are taking time for these quiet moments to really get the rest you need instead of wasting them on frivolous time wasters.

What do these opportunities mean to me?

Four of Cups – It’s time to start back up with your meditation. Instead of wasting time with games and silly internet scrolling that does nothing for you, use this time to meditate and connect with your inner wellspring instead.

How will these opportunities impact my life?

Eight of Cups – Taking advantage of this opportunity to put yourself on a healthier path with your down time will provide you with the ability to move away from unhealthy practices that only breed frustration and discontent.

What abundance will these opportunities bring into my life?

Ace of Wands – Renewed inspiration and motivation.

What challenges will these opportunities bring forward?

Five of Swords – Opening yourself up to these opportunities to explore healthy and restorative practices concerning your rest and restoration are going to stir up struggles between old habits that want to stick around and will be hard to shake, and these new practices. Feed the one you want to thrive.

What patterns will these opportunities highlight in my life?

Three of Wands – Exploring these opportunities will be a reminder to you that we are always moving forward. We only have control over the speed and direction.

@Lionharts #TheAprilTarot Light My Fire Challenge Prompt
Question: What can I do to stay motivated in achieving my goals or plans?

King of Pentacles – Stay on target with your goals and grounded in what you want to achieve. Even kings need to rest now and then (note, the lion’s eyes are closed). This rest is not detrimental, but a necessary part of creating stability.

Knight of Swords – It’s okay to charge ahead recklessly now and then. When things are stable? It can allow you have a bit of a strategic jump forward… or backward, of you end up charging in the wrong direction.  That’s okay too.

Seven of Swords – Don’t let others fuck you over. Watch your back and pay attention to who is pandering in order to get close opposed to those that sincerely are a trusted part of your life.

This post is a catch-up post and, unfortunately, I have absolutely no idea what I might have done as a self kindness on this day.
