. . .to be stuck inside a blog post with the nine of wands again.
Again.
I keep picking this card. What does this mean? I see this little guy with a bandage on his head using the staff (excuse me, WAND) to lean on. He's clearly exhausted. The hills in the distance are deserted, so no immediate threats are in view. It looks like he's really wary about making any new choices right now, like he'd rather cling to what he has than try for something different.
Well, that sounds a lot like me.
That sounds a lot like all of us, lately. The news goes from bad to worse.
I think we're all pulling in a bit, conserving our energy and our finances, trying to be optomistic about the future but with not much to go on, just our feeling that we've been here before, we've gotten through it, and we can do it again. We don't know how, but We've GOT HOPE.
We elected him, so YES WE CAN!
How, I guess, really doesn't matter. As Carolyn Casey once said, "We don't need reality, we need vision." She's right.
Sure, we need to turn around and really look at the problem, but then we need to look past the problem and dream of the potential solution.
As always, it lies in our hearts, not in our minds. Out hearts tell us the truth about ourselves, about how valuable we our, how much potential we have, and how much we have to give.
Our minds let us know how fucked up we are. Don't believe them. They're too influenced by our egos.
Let your heart be your guide. It can navigate you past tiredness and irritation, past fear and pessimism, past all the problems that seem like boulders in your way.
Make a choice, any choice. It really doesn't matter which one. Just choose, but choose with your heart. It may not be the "right" choice, but it will feel the best and deliver the most.
Love is truly the magic that lies within all wands.
With Love,
Kristine
