Holding back our truths. Going against the status-quo. Feeling fearful of rocking the boat. Tarot & Tea, Ace of Air, Reversed.
This is the energy of the day, and how to embrace and make the most of it.
Hurting ourselves through limitation and restriction, we need to take a time out. Rigid opinions can hold us back. So, it’s time to review our stand. Are we being held back by old beliefs, old ways of being? Time to challenge our belief system and let go of past hurts.
When Ace of Air is reversed, we are challenged to look at what holds us back. Where are we not being truthful? Where are we not speaking up because we aren’t in sync with others, and we are fearful of being judged.
We are tribal creatures. Back in the day, going against the tribe meant certain death. We’d be thrown out of the club and have to go out on our own. With no shelter, no companionship, no help, we’d be hard pushed to continue to survive. This basic human and natural fear can often have us going along with things that deep down aren’t actually our truths. Our beliefs.
Today we are challenged to get real with ourselves. What do you believe in? And why?
Sometimes our views have been skewed by old wounds: disappointment, failure and regrets. So, Dear Heart, it’s time to clear the old clutter. All healing starts with acceptance. Look in the mirror. Breathe deeply. Look into your own eyes, and say the following:
Repeat as often as necessary.
If you aren’t sure what makes you fearful, or what is your truth. Or quite simply, this makes you fearful, go ahead and pull out your trusty journal. Write and explore. No one else has to read it. Tear it up afterwards if it makes you uncomfortable or fearful.
When we aren’t in authenticity, we hold ourselves back from success. Whether that success is in love, career, health or even our spiritual path, don’t let feeling fearful hold you back.
A nice tea for balance, and to turn this energy right-ways-up today. We have an orange spice blend. The aroma of orange is known to lift our spirits and cheer us up. With small children, it even brings a sense of calm balance. As you sip, breathe deeply and acknowledge that feeling. Let is seep through you. Every pore of your being comes to calm, and balance.
And we’re ready to tackle the world. Or not. It’s up to you. What do you need today to release feeling fearful and embrace your authenticity? Do some of that.
Bright blessings,
