I sit here with the cards on this quiet and cold Christmas morning. Thinking about the intensity of the message that lies in front of me, I wonder just how deep things will get. Feeling the energy of the world around us, the opening of presents, sharing laughter and joy. This is a beautiful feeling and a beautiful place to be. And now to dive into this holiday message.
When you hear the words “trust” and “surrender” what is it that comes to mind?
There is a depth in balance that can only come from pure surrender. As the lamb represented in the eight of disks is surrounded by danger and anger, but not touched, so is that place of innocent surrender and a piece that brings balance and calm. As we celebrate the holiday with family and friends, let us be the lamb in peaceful harmony this day.
The path ahead brings alchemy and balance to the right and the left path. May your intent be neither selfless nor selfish, but again calling on the balance of a pure heart.
For today keep the words that are in your heart close to your vest. Take a step back and observe the love and joy that surrounds you and listen to your words and listen to your heart and know that in this moment these words and feelings are for you.
Creativity calls to your hands, but perhaps a few too many projects may spread your energy a bit thin. This creativity brings fertility and creativity.
The six of disks whispers to us of manifestation, dreams, and the perfect balance. Perhaps it is for you to get out pencil and paper and write down what it is that you’ve been dreaming, wanting, and seeing.
What does all this mean?
Finding that balance that comes from innocence, knowing your own heart and your own emotions, and bringing a deeper balance into what you create is what is truly calling on this holiday. Remember that this is not the time to be selfish or selfless, but as the cards are telling us strive for that balance and neutrality.
Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs to light of wisdom in the guidance of virtue
~Buddha~
With all of this what will be revealed is your own inner light shining for all to see. This may manifest in what it is that you create or an innocent light that emerges from the depths that it is been in in. This emergence will show the creativity that has been locked away and the balance that you embrace will allow a purity to shine through in everything that you create.
