This is your card reading for Wednesday, October 12th/16. Your card slid to the floor out of the 'Wisdom of the Oracle' card deck, authored by Colette Baron-Reid. Your card is 'Time to Go', and Colette's message for the card is this:
"ESSENTIAL MEANINGS: Endings; completion; walking away from something because there is nothing else to learn or experience.
THE ORACLE'S MESSAGE: You are at the end of one journey and have not yet begun the next. This is the moment to bless your experience thus far. Take stock of what you've learned. It's time to move on to new experiences and a new way of being. There is nothing left for you to do, be, or experience in your present circumstances. Take the risk and move on even if you need to be in transition for a time. Your destiny is calling you.
PROTECTION MESSAGE: Even if it appears that you've reached the end of the line and all is lost, it isn't. You're in a situation that will resurface again later, so consider this a break rather than an ending. Destiny is in charge here. You lose nothing and gain everything when you surrender to that fact. Your soul knows that your Destiny is unfolding with perfect timing and synchronicity. Your small self has doubts, but that is natural, as IT doesn't have the map of your destiny---the SOUL does! Spirit loves you. Trust that."
My message for you today is this:
When this card dropped out of the deck and I picked it up, I had the distinct impression that the woman pictured on the card was moving TOWARD something more powerfully than she was moving AWAY from something. The energy is very much about forward momentum; rather than in giving time and attention to what is in the rearview mirror, so to speak. It holds a very optimistic energy to me, as though the 'releasing' aspect of something has come to completion and you are now in the process of moving toward the new door that awaits being opened. She is also appears to be 'floating' down the wooden pathway to the door in the picture on the card. This implies that you need to 'surrender' somewhat and allow yourself to be carried by the prevailing energies that are guiding you toward the 'next best step' for you. It may feel at times as though you are indeed 'floating' and that you are not 'grounded'. Yet you must trust that all is happening according to plan and that your primary role at this time is to trust and take guided action, even if doing so sometimes feels vulnerable and 'scary'. You will KNOW, amidst your fear, that what you are doing feels 'right' all the same...it will sit well in your heart. Do not resist when 'well laid plans' take a detour and you are presented with a whole new scenario. What may APPEAR to be a roadblock is actually steering you back in the right direction. Spirit's 'got your back'! Know this to be true!
Blessed be...
This is your card reading for Tuesday, October 11th/16. Your card flipped to reveal itself within the 'Energy Oracle' card deck, authored by Sandra Anne Taylor, as I was shuffling. Your card is 'Contract', and Sandra's message for the card is this:
"~Partnership, Legal Commitment~
This card shows a contract in the background, ready to be signed, indicating a committed connection of some sort. This union may be a business deal, the sale of a home, a new job, or even a commitment in marriage. Whatever the connection, this card is more than a casual agreement. It's usually something that requires a document that's binding--at least for the time being.
The scales of justice also indicate that if a legal action is underway, it is likely to turn out in your favour. This card shines a light on potential new opportunities, so remain aware and receptive to what may be coming your way.
AFFIRMATION: I am attracting wonderful, beneficial connections that support and honour me and bring me great happiness and abundance."
My message for you today is this:
It is key that you ensure that any partnerships or alliances that you engage in at this time feel in alignment with you vibrationally. First and foremost, you must be aware and responsible for your own personal VIBRATION...for the energy that you are bringing to what matters to you (and what most 'matters' to you now is whatever it is that 'pops' into your mind as you read this message...whether that be relationship, career, lifestyle or health).
'Like attracts like' and that is SO TRUE energetically and vibrationally! Perhaps you need to adjust or lift your own vibration, in order to attract what it is that you desire. We are indeed vibrational beings, and you CAN shift your vibration in a number of ways. The primary and most efficient means of shifting your vibration is through the breath. Why do you think that when you are experiencing some intense emotion, you are often advised 'to breathe'? It isn't as though you WEREN'T actually breathing, but you are being advised to breathe CONSCIOUSLY and to utilize your breath to calm or center or focus yourself.
Trust and know that you are worthy of the union, partnership, or opportunities that will best serve you being drawn to and presented to you. Focus upon all the good that is coming your way, and employ an 'attitude of gratitude', even if what you desire 'seems' as though it has not manifested yet. Then trust in your inner guidance and 'gut feelings' about what feels in alignment or not. Doors are opening for you right now. Pay attention and choose with intention, courage, conviction, and faith the door that you will walk through at this time, knowing that your guidance is steering you in the right direction.
Blessed be...
This is your card reading for Friday, October 7th/16. Your card shot out of the 'Divine Guidance' fractal art deck, authored by Cheryl Lee Harnish. Your card is 'Rewards', and Cheryl Lee's message for the card is this:
"We have lift off! Energetically and physically, things are about to take-off in your world. Hold on to your hat. All your hard work is about to pay off. Whatever your venture is right now, there is a great movement coming. Things are about to sky-rocket for you. Good things do come and this is your time to enjoy them. You have done the work, now it is time to reap the rewards. Congratulations!"
My message for you today is this:
One of my core beliefs is that there is no such thing as 'coincidence'---only synchronicity. And as I was typing up Cheryl Lee's message for your card today, I realized how synchronistic it was that I was guided to choose the quote that I shared with you yesterday:
"The bridge that you still don't see will be visible once you start walking with courage and determination towards it." ~Roxana Jones~
Many times in our lives, the Universe is conspiring in our favour energetically, even before what we desire has come into physical manifestation for us to witness. As I lay my hand upon the Rewards fractal art card, I could literally feel the powerful uplifting energy! 'Acceleration' is the word that comes to mind for what I felt. While it may feel as though you have been 'plugging away' at something, with no real results (of course that is only an illusion); you will now see things move forward in what feels like an accelerated way. Allow yourself to believe in this and continue walking with courage and determination toward your desired goal. Embrace the energies being offered and give thanks for the opportunities and situations that present to you now. The 'Rewards' card is the perfect card for you as we head into this weekend of THANKSGIVING and traditional celebration of HARVEST.
Openly express your gratitude for all the current blessings within your life now; and open your arms to those you are about to receive. You have laid the groundwork and are about to 'reap the rewards'! The energy of gratitude welcomes these rewards into your life.
I have a beautiful sign that I place at the exterior entrance to our home during the Autumn season that says:
"Let our lives be full of both THANKS and GIVING." That is my wish for you...Happy Thanks/Giving!
Blessed be...
There will be no card reading Thursday, October 6th/16---it is a 'taking care of business' day for me!
Blessings to you,
Linda
This is your card reading for Wednesday, October 5th/16. Your card today shimmied out of the Ascended Masters oracle card deck authored by Doreen Virtue. Your card is 'Peace Offering ~ White Buffalo Calf Woman', and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"This card heralds the resolution of an argument or misunderstanding. Those involved in the situation are ready to forgive and forget. Be open to seeing the other person's point of view to soften any hard feelings. As you allow compassion into the situation, love's healing power ensures that everyone's needs are met harmoniously. Leave the details about how this situation will be resolved to the infinite wisdom of Spirit.
ADDITIONAL MEANINGS FOR THIS CARD: Be willing to forgive. * Have compassion for everyone involved in this situation, including yourself. * Accept another's apology. * See the humour in the situation. *
WHITE BUFFALO CALF WOMAN is a prophetess who appeared to the Lakota Native Americans. She presented the Lakotas with a special pipe to amplify the power of their prayers and to bridge a connection between Earth and Heaven. As she turned to leave the tribe, she turned into a buffalo of different colours to signify the unity of all races of humanity. She promised that she would return to help bring unity and peace to Earth. The sign of her return would be the birth of a white buffalo calf. Call upon White Buffalo Calf Woman to instill harmony into your relationships and for world peace."
My message for you today is this:
One of the traditional Native American songs that Jolynn Daisy is often inspired to share when she is conducting ceremony is the song, 'White Buffalo Calf Woman'. We drummed and sang this song when I attended Jolynn's Fall Equinox ceremony this past September 25th/16, and so it is running through my head as I type up my message for you today! Jolynn explained to us that White Buffalo Calf Woman's energy is that of COMPASSION, and we definitely felt that energy in our circle as we drummed and honoured this sacred Ascended Master in song during that ceremony! Aho!
The energies that we have been in of late have been strongly encouraging us to stand firmly in our own personal Truth. To stand in your personal TRUTH at the highest spiritual level means to do so from a place of COMPASSION, rather than aggression. This DOES NOT mean that you need agree with another, but neither must you insist that they agree with you. Sometimes you just need to agree to disagree. To reach a harmonious conclusion doesn't always mean that the two parties involved will walk the same path...sometimes the harmonious conclusion is that they will part ways, and that is ok. The key here is that you may sometimes need to speak or express your Truth, whereas in the past you may have held your tongue to 'keep the peace'. Yet it is not necessary to do so from a place of 'attack'. The ultimate personal power place is to express your Truth from a stance of compassion; and the powerful Ascended Master, White Buffalo Calf Woman, has presented for you today to assist you in this. Strive to honour yourself and your Truth, while also employing empathy, understanding and compassion---including toward YOURSELF!
We are in a time when many of our close relationships are experiencing a 'realignment' of sorts, in response to the prevailing energies and the shift that we are undergoing in regards to standing in our Truth. Rather than see certain situations in relationship as 'challenges', instead choose to see them as 'opportunities'---opportunity to approach these situations from your new, enlightened place.
Blessed be...
This is your card reading for Tuesday, October 4th/16. Your card slipped out of the 'Universal Laws of Conscious Creation' card deck authored by Lara Solara, Dana Da Ponte, and Marlene Chapman. Your card is 'Universal Law of Least Effort', and the author's message for the card is this:
"The Law of Least Effort states that the Universe always moves along the path of least resistance. As an individual, you can follow the path of least resistance by concentrating your efforts on your internal world of thoughts and feelings until the conditions are right for you to take action. If you choose to act before the Universe has aligned conditions to support your actions, you must expend great effort. Your job in the creation process is to live in the vibration that matches your ideal, to act upon opportunities that come your way, to notice the signs and synchronicities, and to be open, detached, and trusting. The Universe's job is to work behind the scenes to attract to you what it is you are creating. Once you've decided what it is that you want, your first tendency may be to act on that desire. Use the wisdom of this law instead: stop and wait. Allow opportunities to come to you. This does not mean that you will not have to act; it means that when it is time to act, your next steps will be obvious and harmonious. When opportunities present themselves, synchronicities abound, and everything seems to be coming together effortlessly, the time is right for action. And when the time does come to act, always give 100%. This card is reminding you that when you are putting in a lot of effort but getting very few results, it is time to align with the Law of Least Effort. Concentrate your efforts on mastering your thoughts and feelings first, and let the Universe take care of the HOW."
My message for you today is this:
There have been A LOT of messages coming forward for you of late, with this general theme. 'Go with the flow' is another way to express the how the Universal Law of Least Effort can be implemented in your life. As shared in the message above, the Law of Least Effort DOES NOT imply passivity!! To live the life that your Soul desires for you requires that you be a conscious and active participant in the creation of that. The message that is presenting for you today is to step out of attempting to orchestrate every detail of how your dreams will come into being. As Oprah shares in relation to this:
"All of us need a vision for our lives and even as we work to achieve this vision, we must surrender it to the power that is greater than we know. It's one of the defining principles of my life that I love to share: God can dream a bigger dream for you than you could ever dream for yourself. Success comes when you surrender to that dream--and let it lead you to the next best place." ~Oprah Winfrey~
Seldom are ALL of the steps necessary in moving toward a dream we hold for ourselves evident all at once! It can be overwhelming when this happens! Typically, when we strive to move consciously and deliberately toward a certain goal or dream for our life experience, we do so one step at a time. Those steps are presented by the Universe to us, often in ways that we least expect or could have ever predicted. Yet, when we strive to be aware and to take advantage of the opportunities and synchronicities that present for us, it feels as though we move forward with ease and grace...it just 'feels right' (even if it challenges us, such as when I was asked to speak at IAD this past September). Understand that the Law of Least Effort doesn't mean to employ laziness; but rather the most effective use of your effort! It means being EFFICIENT with your effort and working in symphony with the Universal energies that are always conspiring in your favour!
Blessed be...
This is your card reading for Monday, October 3rd/16. Your card today drifted out of the 'Return of Spirit' fractal art deck, authored by Cheryl Lee Harnish. Your card is 'Assistance', and Cheryl Lee's message for the card is this:
"We all need a little help at one point or another in our lives. Rest assured, help is on the way for you. There is a huge in-pouring of Divine and angelic assistance coming to you now. This card appears for you today to let you know that your need for help has been acknowledged. Whether you have directly asked for aid or not, the Universe is stepping forward on your behalf.
This assistance can come in many forms. Sometimes it comes in the form of another person. We do not necessarily have to know them personally for them to influence our lives. Through a series of divinely organized coincidences, a complete stranger can make their way into our personal world, providing the help we so greatly need. At other times, it may be our closest friends who lovingly step forward to assist us.
However, we can also experience a sudden shift in circumstances, which occurs for no logical reason. This can happen to certain individuals who we may be having difficulty with. Either something energetically shifts in them, or we suddenly understand how we are to deal with that person.
No matter how it happens, it is Spirit working in your life. So let this be fair warning. Help is coming! So don't do something silly, such as say, 'No thank you", when help is offered to you. Do not let feelings of not being worthy or deserving get in the way. Do not allow your pride, or need to be the giver, interfere with this Divine offering of assistance. You most certainly deserve it. Allow yourself to receive it. Just smile, and say thank you.
Just as this assistance comes to you, sometime soon Spirit will call on you to provide a loving hand of help to someone else."
My message for you today is this:
The 'helping' energies are very strong today! After the turbulent, 'stir things up' energies of September, we are moving into a 'take action' month in which we are being hugely supported in moving in the direction of our truest expression. In hindsight, we can now see that some of that turbulence was necessary to bring stagnant energies and patterns to the surface so that they could be released at the deepest level.
Note the gorgeous sky blue color that is prevalent in the fractal art card for today's reading--the colour of your Throat Chakra--the energy center of communication and expressing your Truth. Any actions that you take, or words that you speak must be in alignment with your personal Truth and belief system now---it will feel as though you just have no other choice! Recall that standing authentically in your own power never takes another's personal power from them---this is the highest integral level of self-empowerment that you have been shifting toward. Yes...the path there may have felt rough and rocky at times, but pat yourself on the back for taking that path, regardless of the potholes and detours you have had to navigate! The Universe applauds your conscious Soul work, wherein you have chosen to break old patterns of behavior that you have grown past...as vulnerable and scary as it felt, at times! The old competitive paradigm that we lived under as a collective that caused such a stature of 'separateness'--and therefore suffering--is shrinking away and YOU know and feel this to be true. Yet, this shifting is still occurring, and so people and situations may still present in your life that challenge you and this knowing. Approach these 'challenging' people and situations from your new understanding and personal Truth. Acknowledge within yourself that the Universe is providing you the opportunity to integrate your Soul growth on the deepest level by affording you the circumstance and opportunity to approach these people or situations from your new enlightened standpoint and place of personal power. Now, embrace the assistance being offered you, as you continue to move into that truest expression of who you came here to be.
Blessed be...
