This is your card reading for Monday, July 6th/15. Your card whirled out of the 'Enchanted Map' card deck, authored by Colette Baron-Reid. Your card is 'Unexpected Visitors', and Colette's message for the card is this:
"If you expect the unexpected, you'll be prepared for miracles...
Detours, surprises, and paradigm shifts...expect the unexpected No matter how detailed your plans are, and how clear you believe the road ahead to be, there are times when the best plans are waylaid by unforeseen circumstances. At first, detours may seem inconvenient, but a surprise turn of events signals that the adventure of life is beginning to get interesting. No one can plan synchronicity---for fate and destiny to meet---except Spirit, who knows what you can't comprehend for now. Life is full of surprises, so stay on your toes and enjoy this exciting new adventure you weren't expecting. There is a plan for your life that may not match up with your agenda."
My message for you today is this:
Let me tell you...I can most certainly relate to the message that Colette has for your card today! Ever since the Spring Solstice, my personal life/family life has been the epitome of 'unforeseen circumstances'! All good things---but circumstances that were often changing on a daily basis, and that have impacted my own life situation in a very significant way! The life circumstances and spontaneous decisions that have been made over the past few months by my adult 'children' and their spouses have significantly impacted my life also! One such example is our sudden decision to make a trip to Brazil recently to attend our daughter's civil marriage ceremony in Sao Paulo! All of this came up very suddenly and unexpectedly! I also could not have foreseen that our son and daughter-in-law---living in Brazil for the past 4 years---would be moving back to Canada this past Spring, and significantly shifting their career and life strategy in moving forward!
I firmly believe that the Divine guides us through synchronistic events that we could not orchestrate on our own behalf, because we do not have the omnipotent vision that Spirit holds for us. It has felt these past months as though each day has presented a new possibility for how my life is 'playing out'...and so, this reformed 'control freak' has been doing my best to flow freely with the changes that abound! I have had a strong sense that---even as I sometimes struggle to keep up with the magnitude of changing circumstances---'things are happening as they are for a reason'.
So, the message for you (and for me) today is to embrace the unexpected that presents in your life and to know that the Divine is somehow co-ordinating certain situations that are in your best interest in the long run---even though you may feel off-kilter, at times. Settle in to the knowing that we here in the physical can't always see the 'big picture'. Understand that some of your greatest blessings and miracles come to be through 'detours, surprises, and paradigm shifts', as Colette expresses in her message.
The Truth is, the only certainty is in the present moment. This does not imply that you are to see yourself as a martyr---merely existing and submitting to the whims of what is happening around you! We humans were gifted with Free Will, which means that we can choose the perspective that we will embody in navigating our way through the situations that present to us. Life is indeed, an adventure---you can choose to take on that perspective, or you can choose to be fearful of the unknown. I was recently reminded of a quote that I had displayed in my home some years ago, when my life situation was undergoing dramatic change: 'May my Spirit flow freely down the river of change'. I love that quote, and find it to be calming and reassuring! Perhaps, when you find that your boat is rocking, it will serve as a reminder to you, also, that change is inevitable and the only thing that you can control is how you choose to move through it. Think back to past times in your life when you have had to 'shoot the rapids' and how you discovered the blessings awaiting you in the calm waters later. The boat you were in, always kept you afloat, didn't it? Remember that you are so supported by the Divine and by your Spiritual advisors. Call upon them to assist you in moving through life with ease and grace...and to embrace the blessing that those 'unexpected visitors' bring to you!
Blessed be...
