A wonderful Sunday afternoon, my dear friends!
How are you? Just stop for a moment and check in on yourselves
– how are you feeling? Is there something troubling you at the moment?
Have you thought about taking a holistic approach to
something that is troubling you?
The present energies gently remind us that the body is a
miracle which possesses the amazing ability to heal itself and that there are
lots of alternatives to Western medicine. Although alternative therapies do in
no way always replace the conventional approach, the holistic approach to
health does support our bodies’ healing processes and shows us ways to care for
ourselves in natural ways. A good start is to get plenty of fresh air, drink a
healthy amount of fresh, still water and eat a good, healthy diet (preferably
foods that suit your blood type). An experienced therapist, counsellor or even
a good self-help book can give us much-needed support.
The fairy in the card at the top uses magic to mend her
friend’s wing in the gentle light of the Moon to heal and prepare her for the exciting
changes that lie ahead. The dawn is imminent, and the stars are watching from
above and reassure us that we are never alone. They also remind us to view
things from a higher vantage point.
The present energies are favourable to forgive ourselves
and others. Instead of blaming ourselves and others that have wronged us, it is
a good time to forgive and to draw a line under the past, where we think we
have done wrong. It is very rare that we deliberately choose to do something wrong.
We always tend to do what we think is the right choice at the time. Only
afterwards, we realise that we might have done better or walked a different
path in life. We always get the chance to say sorry to those we may have hurt
and to change our direction. Life always gives us second chances.
We are lovingly reminded that, before we can move
forward, it is important for us to accept where we are now. This is a time
where we are supported to tie up loose ends as we are nearing the completion of
a cycle or project (that’s the new dawn augured in the card with the fairies). It
is much more difficult, if not impossible, to move forward if we are leaving
things unfinished. This means to reflect on what has passed and to accept
matters as they are. So, let’s close that door, write that letter, make that
call and make amends if need be so we are feeling refreshed and excited about
the future. Hope is a crucial ingredient for success in life.
Dagaz (the rune) wants to remind us that darkness is
always followed by dawn! We are encouraged and supported to continue on our
paths to self-improvement, self-care and to think and act positively.
Finally, let’s take a look at the charms. The skull stands
for the letting go of the “old” so that we make space for the “new”. The ballet
shoes encourage us to take a more light-hearted approach to any challenges. The
swan stands for devotion and grace. The butterfly heralds transformation,
change, hope and encourages us to make the best out of each day. The crab wants
to help us to set boundaries for ourselves and to teach others how to treat us.
The winged pig indicates that we can achieve whatever we want. Anything is
possible! And last but not least, the bird encourages us to see things from a
higher perspective and wants to bring us hope and enlightenment.
“Some important lessons to take with you this week: Let
people be where they are and leave them there if you have to. Learn to accept
situations for exactly what they are and stop putting so much energy into what
you don’t have control over. And not every action needs a reaction. Oh, and one
more – keep it up! You’re doing an amazing job looking out for yourself.”
