Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was a #DailyTrip session from the Calm app.  The session itself was only eight minutes, but I lingered for another two because it felt a little too short.

The session was about doing nothing, and essentially walked you through eight minutes of doing just that… nothing.  It guided you back to that “nothing” again and again whenever the mind starts to stray or the attention begins to be pulled in one direction or another, bringing you back to that “nothing” again and again throughout the session.

You would think a meditation like this would be easy, but it’s not until you actually try it that you realize just how much stuff goes through your head from minute to minute throughout the day.

Today’s draw is the King of Wands combined with the affirmation “I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’m trying anyway.”

“Winging it” really is a thing.  A very useful and extremely helpful thing. It can terrify others (or even yourself) when the question of “what are we going to do” comes up and your answer is “I dunno.  Let’s see what happens!”  And yet?  Some of the absolute greatest successes (and most massive failures) come out of that sense of adventure that allows you to “just wing it” now and then.

Don’t forget about the magic in this. Enthusiasm and winging it can set the world on fire.

#DiscordTarotholicsFeb2024 Challenge Prompt
Question for February 23rd : Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day – What in life makes you deserving of a treat today?

Three of Swords Rx and Sloth – You aren’t languishing, which allows your depression and disenchantment a foothold, but actually doing things today.

It might not be the things that everyone else wants you to do?  But that’s okay.  Do what you want to do. You’re starting something new and getting things done.

Page of Pentacles and Human – You’ve made a choice to be creative today and begin the first steps on a new creative project. Part of this is bringing that project to somewhere you have more time to focus on it, but also there is the part where you actually began the project.

The Treat – Ms B made homemade chocolate chip cookies!

DECK USED: MOON VOID TAROT AND THE ROADKILL ORACLE DECK

I packed up and took a set of work stuff to Ms B’s today.  It really bothers me that a lot of times when I’m at her house, I’m wasting hours of my day just sitting around so that she has some company for a bit.  By bringing a set of supplies/tools there, I can at least get something productive done during that time, even if I’m working on it a little at a time instead of finishing projects in one fell swoop.
