Today’s draw is the Six of Cups combined with the affirmation “I am Randy for some earth candy.”

Oy.  Okay so I don’t really get… or like… today’s affirmation card. The affirmation on the front is confusing to me, and to be honest? I find the writing on the back very “stream of consciousness” babble-ish and a bit on the vulgar side in a sort of ‘ick’ kinda way.

BUT.  I pulled it, so I’m gonna use it.

The Six of Cups is all about nostalgia, and combined with this affirmation card, what I’m seeing here is an encouragement to look back on those things that you have done in the past to connect with nature, and consider it’s time to revisit some of those activities.  That can be things like walking in the woods, skinny dipping in a lake, or just spending some time sitting out on the lawn listening to the breeze.

These times are special. They are treats to savor, and it’s time to consider revisiting some of them.

Prompt for February : Do Spread 3

Which one card do you feel sums you up best?

Two of Pentacles – Always trying to find balance. There has been a lot of time in my life lately spent trying to establish balance in my life and feeling off-balance more often than not. Although I’m managing to juggle everything, the problem is that I’m feeling overwhelmed with the effort at the moment, and I am seeking not just a better balance, but a steadier foundation to work from as well.

Which one card do you feel represents your strengths?

The Hanged Man – The ability and desire to seek understanding beyond myself. Sometimes when I become too overwhelmed, I lose touch with this as I become too focused on my own struggles. When this happens, I feel a shift in clarity, as if my ability to see clearly has lost a large portion of it’s awareness and understanding.  When that overwhelm eases, that clarity returns and feels like a superpower.

Which one card do you feel represents your limitations?

Ten of Wands – A tendency to take on too much and not realize it until it’s too late. This is where the overwhelm previously mentioned comes in.  When I am feeling good, I feel like I am able to conquer all that I put on my plate… and then my balance shifts and I stumble.  I lose my clarity and become overwhelmed because when not functioning on all cylinders I can’t keep up.

What kind of issues do you feel that you need to work on?

The Devil – Addictive tendencies are something I continuously need to work on. If it feels good? Its addictive, because dopamine is addictive.  It took a long time to understand this, and that it’s not about “addictive substances” for me, but about pleasure, dopamine, and moderation in order to not allow my addictive tendencies to get out of control.

What message do you want to share with the world?

Death – Change is hard, but it doesn’t have to be something you fear or fight against. It’s human to be uncomfortable with change, but change is inevitable.  Do your best to move with it rather than fighting against it, and you will find life will feel far less turbulent as a result.
