Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was one of the #DailyCalm sessions from the Calm app. The topic of the meditation was about our past experiences and memories, and how it is important to to not look back at our pasts with regret, but view those things that one might look upon with regret as lessons instead.

Yes, we all fuck up.  Yes, we all make mistakes… sometimes we wrong others and sometimes we wrong ourselves.  Sometimes we trust who we shouldn’t or do things we know are wrong.

It’s important to move on from these experiences (and their consequences) and learn from them rather than just carry on the bad feelings from them and never learn a thing.

Today’s draw is the Six of Pentacles combined with the affirmation “You are lovable. You are wanted. You are needed.”

Generosity goes beyond others wants and needs, and needs to involve yourself as well. Sometimes all others need from you is a little of your time, but in order to feel stable and balanced? Sometimes that’s what you need from you as well.

These cards are a reminder that you cannot give to others when you have nothing left to give, and in order to avoid having nothing left to give? You have to take care of yourself.  No one wants you to stop taking care of yourself… not even for them, so stop pushing yourself to do just that.

#DiscordTarotholicsJan2024 Challenge Prompt
Questions for January 22nd and 23rd

How can you bring more of what you want into your world?

Trust atop Surrender, Four of Wands – Return your focus towards home, and nothing is so much more “home” than the one you love. There is a give and take to the balance you have with with him. There is trust in the drown… trust in the surrender to him. And it’s there that you find your true home.

It’s through this balance with him that you allow yourself to feel stable. Even when there are subdrops… maybe even especially then.

What do you need to focus on for self-care for the upcoming full moon?

Patience and Ace of Pentacles – Breathe through this new experience with your business and have patience both with yourself and the business as a whole. It’s new and scary, but it doesn’t have to be all bad and it won’t last forever.

I managed to meditate three days in a row, which is a record lately (because I’ve not had a very good track record over the past few months).
