Personal Space

/ Twist the Leaf / Leave a comment

#DailyTrip from the Calm app - Dolly Parton quoteToday’s meditation was eleven minutes long and was one of the #DailyTrip sessions in the Calm app. The session’s topic was about frustration, and how to sit with one’s frustration instead of trying to purge it by lashing out at others.

I can’t say that I really enjoyed this one. The exploration of a negative emotion during a time when I’m trying to find calm and peace just doesn’t fit well for me.  I see the usefulness in using meditation in this manner, but it’s just not for me. At least not at this time in my life.

Nishikigoi Tarot's Death card and It’s Going To Be Okay 2024 Day-to-day Calendar By Kate AllanToday’s draw is the Death card combined with the affirmation “You deserve to take up space.”

And I am going to be taking up a lot of damned space apparently.  Surgery tomorrow with a morning notification just this morning.  I’m spending today getting orders ready to go and then… lets just say the rest of this month is going to suck balls probably.

The message in today’s cards is that change is on the rise and  I need to make sure that I give myself my own personal space.  Keep boundaries in place and allow myself what I need instead of always shuffling it to the back burner.  During this transitioning period, it’s more important than ever.

The #RootingWiththeEmpress #RootYourself Witch Prompt
Prompts for March 4th thru 6th

Nishikigoi Tarot - Knight of Cups, The Emperor, Two of SwordsWhat must be left behind so I may grow into my full potential?

Two of Swords Rx – Indecision. Especially the sort that’s exacerbated by the inability to see at all the facts involved.  Sometimes making a decision in these circumstances has to be a leap of faith rather than something based on weighing options and logical choices. Don’t let yourself get stymied.

Where must I settle into my own grounding now?

The Emperor – Responsibilities can often feel heavy, but they also have the ability to ground you if you let them. Instead of looking at them as a crushing weight you are struggling under, try and shift your perspective to see your responsibilities as something that helps keep you grounded.

In what ways am I self-sabotaging my progress?

Knight of Cups – You are indulging too heavily in the pleasure of languishing rather than participating in that active pursuit of other healthier pleasures.

Tarot Landscapes King of Cups, Earth Heart Wisdom Cards, Magic & Light Affirmation CardsToday’s draw is the King of Cups combined with the affirmation “Use your deep power of knowledge and your perfect intuition to be your guide. Ask the universe for a peaceful harmony to everything you consider important.”

You need him.  You need him in your life in order to create balance and the steady foundation for growth that you are working through.

He is your touch stone. Your beacon of focus within the massive sea of the world at large.

Remember that relationships take work, and need time and attention in order to be healthy.  Make sure you are giving your relationship the time it needs.

#DiscordTarotholicsMar2024 Challenge Prompt
Prompt for March 3rd: Do Spread 1
With spring approaching, it’s time to start cleaning out the old energies of hibernation and stagnation that winter can often bring. In this spread, look for those thoughts and things that need to be let go in order to allow you to flourish this spring.

Earth Angel Message Cards and Tarot Landscapes - Four of Wands, Ten of Swords, The High PriestessWhat do I need to let go of to…

Ease My Mind – Four of Wands and The Healer – Consider where you feel the most healing energy. Where do you go that fills you up? Stop hibernating at home and avoiding these places. Get back out into nature and let it begin to heal the raw wounds inside you that the past year has created.

Lighten My Heart – Ten of Swords and Grace – Gratitude makes the heart grow lighter. You are at the end of a journey. Let go of your need to wallow in the endings, the what ifs, and worry about what’s next. Instead, focus on the good that has been accomplished along the way and let that lift you up.

Free My Creative Spark – The High Priestess and Abundance – You are far richer than you give yourself credit for. Those secret whispers in your head don’t always give you time to ground in your abundance. Instead of always listening to them, remember to look at the cold hard facts that all can easily see, and acknowledge what you have in front of you.

Recovery Takes Time

Jonasa Jaus Tarot's Five of Pentacles and It’s Going To Be Okay 2024 Day-to-day Calendar By Kate AllanToday’s draw is the Five of Coins combined with the affirmation “The amount of recharge time you need is entirely reasonable.”

Don’t feel like you need less rest (or punish yourself by not giving yourself enough rest) because things with the business and finances are in a time of scarcity right now. You still need the same amount of rest whether things are good or bad in the moment. Being unkind to yourself about it just makes it harder to recharge as you need.

Give yourself the rest you need. This is especially important right now when you’ve been sick.

Questions for March 3rd and 4th

The Green Witch's Oracle Deck and Jonasa Jaus Tarot - Strength, The Sun, Queen of Pentacles, Seven of PentaclesExperience: What (new experience) A should I seek out this month that could support my personal growth?

The Sun Rx atop Strength, Sage – Clear out the manipulation in your life that is making you unhappy. This doesn’t mean cutting those people out of your life, but rather pointing out to them what they are doing (no matter how subtly they’re doing it) and that you are  unhappy with how they are treating you.

Explore: What opportunity for exploration am I being called to pursue?

Queen of Coins, Tend atop Earthworm – You need time digging in the dirt and communing with the green. It’s not yet time to start planting on your balcony, but it’s coming. Don’t put it off due to worrying that you won’t get the chance to keep it up like last year. Dive in and get your hands dirty.

What makes this essential at this time?

Seven of Coins and Oak Tree – The best growth comes from a good foundation. Making plans and making sure that you are planting those seeds when they need to be planted is important for a strong and healthy balcony garden. Not only that, but it gives you something to look forward to.

I took a nap today even though I really didn’t want to.  I’m starting to feel better, though, and the nap helped with that.

#DailyTrip with the Calm Tarot - Premsiri Lewin quoteToday’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was one of the #DailyTrip sessions from the Calm app.  Today’s session addressed the difference between standing by and watching as others struggle or go through problems, vs spending time with them and giving them space in your company, showing them even just by giving them your time, that you are there with them.

It discussed how big a difference it makes in others lives to simply share space with someone, and how supported people can feel in those moments. We don’t need to solve other people’s problems, simply be there to listen and show we care.

Luna's My Melody Tarot's Two of Cups and It’s Going To Be Okay 2024 Day-to-day Calendar By Kate AllanToday’s draw is the Two of Cups combined with the affirmation “No self-hate. You’re too cute for that.”

Sometimes, being easy on oneself isn’t easy at all. In fact, it can feel almost impossible.

Today’s cards are a reminder that during these times when you are struggling to be kind to yourself? It’s time to lean into the influence of others to help you.

Seek out those that love and care about you and let them help in lift you up.  Don’t be shy in asking them for help, even in seeing the good in yourself. Let them tell you all the wonderful things about you that drew them in and keep them around.  That’s what friends are for, and nobody has more experience with those wonderful qualities you can’t quite see yourself than someone who enjoy having you in their life.

Questions for March 1st and 2nd

Luna's My Melody Tarot - Seven of Cups, Five of Wands, Four of Pentacles, Two of SwordsWhat area of my life is requiring too much sacrifice?

Seven of Cups atop Five of Wands – You are struggling with too much deliberation over too many options. There’s a war going on between what others expect and what you feel is right. Make sure that you fall on the -you- side of the outcome.

What would be a better option or path?

Two of Swords atop Four of Pentacles – Choose stability, even when the decision is difficult and especially when you feel like you don’t have all the information.

Take Away – These cards are a reassurance that I made the right decision in staying home today instead of going north. I’ve had a head cold since Monday (at first, I thought it was allergies hitting off-season for me). I feel a bit guilty not going today, but feel that what I really need right now is more rest to try and force this cold to let go.
