Daily Mental Health Prompt: Seek a positive message to carry with you throughout the day and offer perspective.

Today’s draw is The High Priestess card, which is traditionally a representation of intuition, secrets, sacred knowledge, mystery, the subconscious mind.

The High Priestess card has then been combined with an affirmation from Miracle Mantras Affirmation Deck, which says, “My relationships reflect the love I give myself.”

We see what we need in life, often without conscious thought of ever doing so. This is why those we engage in friendships in relationships with often appear to be the opposite of ourselves. They create the “puzzle pieces” that match up with our own, fitting together into a greater wholeness.

Therefore, I’m not entirely sure if our relationships actually reflect the love that we give ourselves (as stated in today’s affirmation prompt), or reflect the love we need but cannot give ourselves.

Either way, the message in today’s High Priestess card and affirmation is a reminder that the connections we make with others help to “round us out” into someone better than we are on our own. Sometimes how this is happening is hard to see clearly. These cards ask us to examine those relationships and take a moment to see and appreciate what it is that they contribute to our lives, our livelihoods, and our well-being.

3-Card Spread Prompt for July 13th : Self-care for this month’s new moon…

Wanted – Rose

Perfection and acceptance. They are two very contradictory desires and it’s hard to accept that you can’t have both. The truth is, though, that you could if you were willing to redesign your definition of perfection. That you’re not willing to do this leaves both of these things out of your reach.

Needed – Daffodil

A new start and the patience needed to allow growth to develop at its own pace. Pride gets in the way of this patience, and is a bit motivator in your drive to push yourself too hard.

Accessible – Iris

Move forward one step at a time, even when doubts drag at you and obstacles hold you back. Trust in divine timing and let go of the need to force everything to move faster or to do more. That drive for control over everything leaves you unnecessarily vulnerable.

Pressed Pansy Flowers for Hearing the Heart More Clearly
Dried Lavender Bundle for Calming and Comfort
Calcite w/ Conichalcite for Amplifying Intuitive Messages
Desert Rose for Purification and drawing in Positive Energy

The @ambitiouslyalexa July Journal Prompts

Prompt for July 13th : A comfort you’re allowing yourself

Reading Summary: You’re giving yourself permission (Six of Pentacles) to not engage in stubbornly obsessive ways (Knight of Wands Rx) with those things that steal your time away from (Seven of Swords) the personal growth you wish to focus on (Page of Cups).

Take Away: You are prioritizing your emotional growth and understanding above your need to always be pushing for better and greater success.

In this way, you are essentially putting yourself first above your responsibilities and obligations, giving yourself the space to learn and better understand yourself rather than pushing this focus on growth away to deal with at a later time.

By allowing yourself the space for exploration and growth, you are not punishing yourself as severely as you would have in the past for putting success and ambition in other areas on the back burner.

Other elements included in this reading:
Black Spruce Needles to Boost Self-Confidence and Positive Thinking
Dried Rosebuds for Potential and Beauty Waiting to Unfold
Dried Purple Heather Flowers for Independence and Luck
Scotch Pine Cone for Purging Negative Influences
Conch Shell Knot for Concentration, Clarity, and Determination
Gneiss Stone for Patience in Moments of Discomfort
