Tarot Maregician - Knight of Diamonds, Knight of PentaclesThe @GlitterbyInk #AprilFinds25 Challenge
Lost and Found Prompt for April 16 : Beauty

Today’s draw is the Knight of Pentacles, which is traditionally a representation of an active, projective beta energy, personality, or person in the area of one’s finances, resources, health, home, labors, and manifestations. This often translates into a slow moving but determinedly forward moving energy, personality, or person that has their eye on the prize regardless of the slow and steady speed they may be moving at.

Move more slowly and smell the roses along the way. You’ll get where you’re going just fine at a slower pace. It doesn’t have to be a race to the finish line all the time.

The Knight of Pentacles with “beauty” as the prompt for today is a reminder that life is about the journey… not about the destination. That is why death lies at the end of life, so that we’ll take our time and enjoy getting there first.

So make sure that you are stopping along the way to “smell the roses” and dawdling on your journey in order to enjoy more of the beauty that life has to offer you.

Philosophical Questions for April 16th and 23rd

Alfons Maria Mucha Oracle and Compos Mentis Tarot - The Hierophant and The EmpressWhat existed before our universe was created?

The Hierophant and Release Spirit – Death and destruction, followed by the need to start a new in an effort to not just direct life in a new direction, but with values and purpose.

These cards pose the idea that perhaps this universe was created (by whatever sentient process you wish to ascribe to it) in reaction to having done so before without providing “proper guidance”, and that this prior effort ended in destruction.

What is Divinity?

The Empress and Understand Limitations – Divinity, as defined with these cards, is ancient wisdom combined with the energy of nurturing creativity.

Other elements included in this reading:
Dried Rosehips for Releasing Stress and Negativity
Foraged Red-Stemmed Feather Moss for Attentive Understanding
Ammonite for a Sense of Stability During Times of Change
Kambaba Jasper for a sense of Peace and Tranquility
Selenite for Purification and drawing in Positive Energy

Daily Self Kindness

This is a catch-up post, which means I have no idea what my self-kindness was on this day.
