Actively Seeking Help

Today’s meditation was skipped.

Britt's Third Eye Tarot - Five of PentaclesToday’s draw is the Five of Pentacles, which is traditionally a representation of misfortune, domestic or financial troubles, scarcity, and ill health.

The figure in this  imagery seeks help for their scarcity, but their effort is passive instead of active.

The message in this card’s imagery that it’s okay to seek charity when charity is needed, but sometimes you have to be active about it.  Don’t just sit there and hold out your hand, and expect people to know what you need or want to help.

Sometimes?  You have to actually seek out that help, clearly state what’s wrong, and allow others in to help us.

Questions for February 17th and 18th

Britt's Third Eye Tarot and Магия Сердца OракулHow or where should I free myself from unhealthy attachments?

Ace of Swords and Misalliance – Stop trying so hard to convince yourself things are working out when they are just not going to. You would benefit from being more discerning instead of giving 2nd chances and going easy on the fuck ups for fear of being blamed for unbiased treatment.

What insecurities, fears or coping mechanisms are holding me back?

The Tower and Love – Pushing away those you love in moments of chaos and turmoil only hold you back from the love, support, and assistance that you need from those that love you.

Question for February 17
: Where have you been settling for “good enough” in your life?

Britt's Third Eye Tarot - Knight of Cups, Queen of Swords, Queen of WandsReading Summary: You feel like you are falling short on going after what interests that make you happy (Knight of Cups and Queen of Wands), because your negative inner narrative shames you into more responsible tasks (Queen of Swords Rx).

Take Away: Your negative inner narrative is something that you struggle with a lot. It holds you back not just from aiming for success in those goals you set your sights on, but also prevents you from enjoying yourself when participating in activities that would normally light you up on the inside and create an enthusiastic emotional response.

These negative inner influences muffle both your joy and your enthusiasm.

Questions for February 16th and 17th

Магия Сердца OракулHow can I attract more love into my life?

Edge atop Rolling Pin – Take a chance more often instead of being so strict with yourself and that needy child hiding within you. When you put yourself out there instead of being hard on yourself, it allows your love to spread like seeds in the wind and take root in many places instead of withering on the vine by being held too close and too tightly.

How can I reduce barriers to allowing more love into my life?

Witchcraft and Love – Intention.  You need to make the choice and apply intention to connecting with others rather than allowing everything to just happen by chance all the time.

Daily Self Kindness

This is catch-up post, and I cannot remember what I might have done as a self-kindness for the day.

Enriching Our Lives With Others

Today’s meditation was another quiet ten minute session of sinking into centering while working through my breathing exercises and piriformis / forearm stretches.

Tarot de LuzToday’s draw is the Two of Cups, which is traditionally a representation of connection and unification, mutual attraction, and alignment of feelings with another.

Here in this imagery, what I see is not so much about others, but about what the connection with others can do for us.  The centering it creates, the surety of foot through life’s path it can foster, the connection with the world around us that it inspires.   Where alone we may be great, we’re better together… that’s what this imagery says.  Love makes things better… makes everything better, even if just by way of a small bit in some instances.

The card today is an encouragement not to block people out.  It’s a reminder that by opening our hearts to others, we enrich not just their lives, but also our own.

Topic for February 6th
: Do Spread #1

February is often about making plans and preparations for the arrival of spring just around the corner. Plans and preparations are great! But they are only the first step. Use the three cards pulled in this spread to discover what signs you should keep an eye out to tell you when it’s finally time to take action.

Магия Сердца Oракул and Kei Tarot LoveSigns for Action in February

Seduction – Keep a watch on your addictions, specifically for those that are trying to stretch beyond the healthy boundaries you’ve put in place for yourself.

Area of Life Action Will Be Needed In for February

Page of Cups – Emotion are a major drive behind when your addictions become too tempting. Instead of indulging in “comforting acts” that feed your addictions, use this month to explore your emotions more deeply and learn from them.

Signs for Action in March

Movement atop Pervert – Be sure to pay attention when you start to feel the need to rush to the point that you are willing to sacrifice quality and your normal standards just to “get it done”.

Area of Life Action Will Be Needed In for March

Nine of Cups – You need to examine if these shortcuts are really going to make you happy, or if it’s something that’s going to be looked back on later as “Damn, I wish I done that the right way the first time.” Make sure you are focusing on your long-term satisfaction, instead of the momentary pleasure of a job being over.

Signs for Action in April

Deal – Keep an eye out for any agreements, contracts (and contract renewals), promises, and other types of deals that may arise this month.

Area of Life Action Will Be Needed In for April

Wheel of Fortune atop The Magician Rx – If you are feeling powerless, and like everything feels out of control, make sure you look into things deeper instead of just allowing these feelings to sit and grow. Act and be assertive instead of getting into something that feels wrong or unbalanced.

Mr Lionharts’ #TheFebruaryTarot Kindred Spirits Challenge Prompt
Questions for February 6th

Tarot de LuzWhat are three of my best personal qualities? {selected, not drawn}

The Hanged Man – The ability to step back and see things from multiple perspectives, and the desire to truly understand these perspectives that are not my own.

Justice – An extremely rigid moral compass that is not based of others expectations or society’s rules, but off of what feels right to and for me. This includes a need for fairness, balance, and consequences.

The Hierophant – The desire to help others in finding their path, the urge to share my knowledge and teach. Because my own path is alternative in nature, it helps these teachings and guidance from becoming too rigid where flexibility is needed.

How can I use each quality to grow within/towards what I love? {drawn, not selected}

The Hanged ManThree of Swords – Make sure that you don’t allow this ability to dip into others perspectives end up dragging you down. You already carry a good deal of disappointment concerning humanity as a whole. Don’t intentionally go looking for more.

JusticeKnave of Cups – Make more allowances for emotional factors. You are on a path of learning and growth emotionally right now, and that will at times bring moments of uncertainty. It’s natural and a part of your growth, not something to struggle against. Think outside the box and use your imagination more in these moments.

The HierophantTen of Wands – Remember that no matter how passionate you are about something, you can still only take on so much. Don’t allow your passion and desire to help others turn into a burden or result in burnout.

Daily Self Kindness

I put off doing laundry until tomorrow.  I’m not sure if this is a self kindness because I just wasn’t in the mood for it… or unhealthy avoidant behavior.
