Natural Personhood

Decks used are the Cosmic Tarot- Norbert Loesche and the Energy Oracle- Sandra Anne Taylor. The music that inspired for this reading can be found here: Mudflat Hikers Album- Santpoort

Lately, I’ve been feeling called to get out in nature and it’s come to quite an obvious necessity now that things are starting to get a bit warmer in my part of the world. I kept trying to come up with a perfect way to express the feelings of being out of doors and not all cooped up like I’ve been used to these past several months, and I happened to find this album in my saved playlists on my YouTube. I hope the feelings of being out in nature and getting the opportunity to explore a bit is what comes through in this reading. I hope you enjoy and let's get into some cards.

What I’m seeing for this reading is that I am balancing a lot on my plate at the moment, and it’s been overwhelming. However, the tool I have in my kit that I might not realize I have is that I am clear on how I want to move forward and that I can embody the lessons each element of nature wants to show me during this time. In order to do this, I need to take a step back and assess where I’ve been making progress, acknowledge where I’ve been disappointed, praise myself for doing the work I’ve been doing and walk away from the hurts caused to me. I need to take root in knowing that heartaches heal and there is indeed life after pain. I still have energy and the fire of my passions and inspirations to tap into when doing this, and this is going to be what continues to move me forward. How do safely and generously tap into that? I can let my inner light shine generously and openly and I can remain connected to my intuitive nature as well.

The thing is, things do change, and the road, while looking smooth and unmarked now, will likely change and I’ll trip up and fall. this is normal and it happens. Instead of anticipating the stress and anxiety of this, I need to give my heart a break and know that the peace and motivation I find in my most natural and basic personhood is what will guide me through.
