This is your card reading for Friday, August 19th/16. Your cards today dropped together out of the 'Gaia Oracle' card deck, authored by Toni Carmine Salerno. Your cards are 'Purification (Fire)' and 'Hidden Path', and Toni's message for the cards is this:
~Purification (Fire)~
"Bare Essentials, The Naked Truth, Wholeness
What is it your heart truly desires? What do you perceive is missing in your life? In order to find the answers you must look inside your heart. You already know this but have been reluctant to look because a part of you fears what your heart is trying to tell you. The only way forward is to face your fear. Something in your life is not working out as you would have liked and it's not going to get any better unless you have the courage to face it. Close your eyes and relax. Imagine a beautiful flame, warming your heart and soul. Feel its purifying and healing light burning away your fears and doubts, healing your body and mind and clearing away all obstacles either imagined or real. Feel your heart center as an endless space full of only love and light. Feel the peace. You are safe in this eternal space of light. Now, what is your heart saying? When it brings a tear to your eye you will know that it is your truth. Your soul will guide you towards happiness; all you need to do is follow. Trust!
Affirmation:
I listen to my heart and follow its guidance
I deserve to by happy
I have the power to create my reality
I trust that all will work out well
My life is clear of obstacles."
~Hidden Path~
"The marriage of spirit and matter
You have traveled far in search of greater meaning and fulfilment, having made much progress and learning valuable lessons. You want to continue your journey, but the road seems to have come to an end. Where do you go from here? The symbolic imagery on this card is set within a magical forest: it seems inviting, yet the way forward is not clear.
No physical path exists, however there is a way forward. Between the trees is a symbol for eternal life and to the right, a symbol for healing and protection. This card is inviting you to move forward spiritually and offers you healing and protection along the way. Spirit and matter must now merge if true progress is to be made; your rational mind must align with your heart. When heart and mind are both focused on the same goal, great things are possible. This is true spiritual alchemy; all you work towards can now be achieved.
Affirmation:
My heart and mind
are in perfect alignment
My heart's desire and my thoughts
are one
I am a spiritual being
in a physical body
The journey ahead
is filled with light
The light of my soul
illuminates my path."
My message for you today is this:
These are powerful and perfect cards to present for you on this day following last evenings Full Moon and Penumbral Lunar Eclipse! The undeniable theme for you in the messages this week have been about self-empowerment and taking responsibility for your life path, and for living a life that holds meaning for you; rather than merely existing.
I love and appreciate how the Purification (Fire) card presented while we remain in the energies of the Full Moon, which IS about releasing what no longer serves us, and purifying our life in this way...thereby making room for us to move in a direction that better serves us, as is shared in the message for the Hidden Path card. It is not what happens TO you, but what you choose to do about what happens to you that is the greatest predicator of the quality of life you will live. As Toni's message states, it can be very scary to 'follow your heart'...it often feels 'safer' to 'follow your head'. Yet, in truth, your head and your heart need not be 'in competition' with one another. It is all in your perspective. Those who have led the most satisfying and Soulful lives will tell you that it was in melding of employing their heart's desires through the expression of their mind that they achieved this.
You chose to live in this embodied state here on Earth, and to take on the challenge of developing your Soul and expressing 'all that you are' on the Earth plane. Your point of power comes through acknowledging what your heart center is telling you, and then employing your mind to bring it to fruition. The term 'alchemist' has presented in your cards today and in your card yesterday...that is no coincidence!
Blessed be...
