Power Tarot – Commitment – You need commitment to focus on your target, take aim, pull back the bow, and then shoot your arrow, knowing you will hit the bull’s-eye with every shot. To hit the bull’s-eye require total commitment of your spiritual and physical being. You need only the commitment to walk down the path through the gateway into your true destiny. It is a process of gathering. You gather your emotions, your mental strength, and your abilities as you would gather sheep. It can be a long process, but your commitment gives you endurance. It is the next step after defining your act of power. Materialize your dreams and begin to live them. Build that magnificent dream lodge within you with total commitment.
Angels Blessing – Anael – Sexuality
Wolf Song – Lynx – Secrets, Truth revealed
Miracle Cards – Meaning in Life – Meaning doesn’t lie in things; meaning lies in us. When we attach value to things that aren’t love – the money, the car, the house – we’re loving things that can’t love us back. We’re searching for meaning in the meaningless, and this will always cause pain.
Crystal Ally – Chrysocolla – Sacred Sounds // Communication / Expression of the sacred / Goddess Energies / Gentleness / Power
Animal Messages – Baboon – In love and declarations of passion, heartfelt communication is the key.
Sublime Baboon, adept of love, wears her heart on her sleeve. Baboon does not pretend. Her passions and shows of affection are genuine, her reactions without artifice, so you may believe the ardent declarations of others. Truthful, heartfelt communication and open expression of feelings are what matter now in your relationship if, like Baboon, you seek lasting love. Hiding your emotions will leave others unsure of your intentions and reluctant to reveal their feelings, which can only lead to misunderstandings and sadness.
GaiaStar Codex – Mojo – Rebirth
Open-eyed and at ease in the fiery grip of transmutation, Mojo is the Phoenix. On his brow turns a spiral, the sign of continuity. Part bird, part rock, part man, he has gone beyond fear. From this place of freedom, he transmits the liberating “We live on.” Mojo’s empowerment is rebirth. He shows that every apparent ending sets loose the seed of the next beginning. The thread of your existence is unbroken. You can endure the heat of change with great equanimity when this knowledge becomes a certainty in your heart. It sets you free to be new again and again.
Love Tarot – Temperance – Temperance is one of the Tarot’s cardinal virtue cards, and she advocates balance and reason in love. A winged angel stands by a lush riverbank. With perfect poise she decants water from one cup to another while one foot touches the river’s water and the other rests upon the earth. Temperance reveals the need for attention to detail, and perhaps the patience of an angel, to keep your love life in balance.
Be mindful of a situation which, if left unattended, may result in a misunderstanding. If a relationship is volatile just now, try not to let your emotions run away with you. Maintain your equilibrium by listening to your heart and head in equal measure.
The Faeries’ Oracle – The Fee Lion – The Fee Lion looks out of his card accusingly, reminding us of things undone, promises unkept, and duties unfulfilled. He says that we can’t expect to have things go right when we are trailing so much unfinished business behind us. Dragging that stuff around tires us, it uses up energy that we need for other things. If we would just take care of these things that cause so much mental (and sometimes physical) clutter, we would suddenly find that we have a lot more energy at our disposal to do the things that we really want to do – and probably much more cooperation from others as well. He especially suggests that we take care of the little things that matter to others. We will feel so much better when we have done that, and so will he.
The Heart of Faerie Oracle – The Boy – Adventure / Freedom / Youth – The eternal Boy is like Peter Pan, the boy who never grows up. What is important about the Boy? We are told that we inevitably grow up, grow old, and die. And we do. At least part of us does. But there is another part of us that, like Peter Pan, stays eternally young, and not just young, but “boy” young. Masculine young. The part of us that wants to seek adventure, live dangerously, live heroically, and die gloriously. In Faerie, the part of us that is the eternal boy can roam free forever. Male of female – we all need to acknowledge the “boy” within us and let him run free. If we do no more than say, “Go fly, have adventures,” we have done enough. When the Boy turns up, take a minute to find the boy inside of you. He may be hiding = boys are good at that = but coax him out into the light, say hello, and let him fly. He’ll return to you, and when he does, oh what tales he’ll have to tell!
