Spirituality
This card shows the Pentagram which is an ancient symbol meaning the being ruled by God overcomes the passions, emotions, physical desires, and mental rollercoaster. What a task?
Well it’s what the drawing says – in the drawing, you sit, naked, in the arms of your Guardian, you hold a big heart that your Guardian awkwardly also holds. This indicates that you are not relaxed into the spiritual surrender of Love – you are still attached to earthly love in a way that is not of the Spiritual. There is a big horned shadow coming up from the lower right hand corner and your feet are in the shadow. There is a snake that comes out of you that goes through the shadow and comes back to you.
The snake always means Shadow work needs to be done – the snake represents the base desires – because the snake slithers on the ground. But the snake also sheds it’s skin so that represents a need for you to do Spiritual Work to untwist yourself so that you can embrace your Guardian and allow your Guardian to embrace you in an untwisted way. Right now your Guardian is twisted to hold you.
Also you are staring into the Shadow. In order to find peace you will have to stare into the light.
This requires practice. I am going to send you a copy of a really simple exercise I did once that really helped me a lot. You would be surprised how much your words and thoughts have to do with coloring your ability to see the Light. The Light is merely the absence of darkness but when you have been staring at the dark for so long it seems much greater than the light...but that is a LIE.
Also, I recommend prayer and meditation -
Direction for Meditation and Prayer
The solution is that you let God be the Director of your life, then things will go much better for you, because you will always know what to do because you will be guided by a Power greater than you that has your best interest in mind for the Highest Good of all concerned.
A good place to start would be MEDITATION and PRAYER. Start with a few minutes of silent meditation in the morning and at night - and increase it as you can. You can count backward from 25 and try to see the numbers in your head- this will block other thoughts from coming in. The purpose of meditation is to get out of the ego self and into the observer self so that you are no longer attached to ideas that you believe are real… and you can get into the silence - this does take practice. Yoga can help with this as well. Breathing into your stuck points in your body while doing a stretch can help you find mental silence.
Prayer on the other hand is for throughout the day - and it requires practice to become a working part of your life - Asking at each point when you set out to do something - what is God's Will in this situation?
Pausing and waiting and then looking for the answer in signs or intuition, chance meetings or things that come from outside you to start with ... You can do this with minutia as well as big decisions. Practice at the grocery store when standing in front of the bread isle – there are so many choices - God, what kind of bread should I buy? and then pause and wait to see which bread seems right. It takes practice. The finite mind is not going to want to give up it's status as the ruler - so it might be confusing and frustrating but the more you practice the more it will become a working part of the mind...
Even making mistakes shows you are trying and you will get great rewards from that -
Acknowledging these miracles - by writing them down - makes them more and more believable - not something to be brushed off as "coincidence" - or not even noticed -
In addition, during this "crisis" we are in - you could Pray for a simple way you could be helpful to others - and for the ability to let go of the results - you do not know what is best for others - but you can be helpful to them in some way -
This will get you out of yourself and let the Higher Power have a chance to work out the right decision for you - so that you will know what to do when you need to know it...
We are at the time now where every person on this earth has to choose whether they are going to follow the Creator or the created – and there will be consequences so severe that we all must get strong in our convictions toward either. There is no more delaying the work that must be done.
I am not sure that there is a way to just go to a therapist these days to do the Shadow work which is why I suggest a prayer and meditation practice – and once you get the hang of it you can start asking for guidance toward how to get the Shadow work done – and you will be led to it in a series of coincidences and signs … but you have to trust your intuition and follow the lead…. This is the time in which you would want to have a clear and direct communication untwisted with the Guardian Spirit -
