Wheel of Fortune

Today’s card is the Wheel of Fortune. They say that life is cyclical, not linear. We aren’t just born, live, then die. There is so much more to a life than just that. So why do we live this way? We know that the Moon revolves around the Earth, and the Earth around the Sun. We know that trees bloom in the spring and then die in the fall. We see this all around us and yet think we are separate from it all.

If we learn to ease into life just as nature does, if we stop struggling and start going with the flow, trusting that no matter what our lives will be ok, then that is when the magic begins. Recognizing that when you have a down period there will inevitably be an up.

When we live with linear thought we can’t conceive that life will eventually be good after a bad period in our lives. We struggle and struggle to be happy, to conform to the rat race, pretend that everything is ok so that when we reach the end of the line we will have people who care about us, near us.

Believe me… I get it.

As of today I have 11 days left here in England before I head back to the US. Head back to what? I don’t know. I don’t know where I am going to live, what I’m going to do about work, how I’m going to get around besides my bicycle and motorcycle. There are a million and one questions bouncing around my head right now. But you know what? I KNOW something good is going to happen. I TRUST that the universe will provide for me. I ALLOW it all to flow around me.

Just Breathe. Just Know. Just Trust. Just Allow.

Peace!

Today’s card comes as no surprise. Work.

Yesterday while spending time with my sister we went to Stonehenge and then last night stayed in a little town called ‘Avebury’. The last time I was here was with my Ex and her Mom. As it would be, my Ex had deleted me off of Facebook either that morning or the day before. It totally triggered me even though it was something as silly as that.
A friend of mine told me that I need to do the work. I needed to delve deeper into my spiritual practice. She was right in a way, I had been traipsing around it. I guess I was just expecting a bit more empathy for my pitiful feelings at the time. Ha!

A Spiritual Practice is just that… Practice.

There are times that our ego gets bruised and we go into a pity party with ourselves searching for our ‘blanky’ for comfort. And that is ok, but then it’s back to the work.
Having these moments does not mean that you are going backwards, that you haven’t learned anything. It just means that there is more to learn.
There is always more to learn.

But… if you find yourself ALWAYS in this pity party land then it’s time to find out why? Have you really done the work or is it just a facade to make you feel and look good? That’s a tough question to ask and I only ask it because I ask it of myself as well. It keeps me in check.

Do the work.

Peace!

Queen of Cups

Did you see the full moon last night? I woke at 3am and saw it light up my hotel room. Vibrant and bright.

Today’s card is the Queen of Cups. Reflection!

If you are an empath you find yourself taking on other peoples emotions that is why it is imperative to have enough alone time so that you can tap into your own emotions. When you don’t have adequate alone time you end up being an emotional wreck because you can’t distinguish your own emotions to those that you pick up throughout the day.

I thought being an empath was complete rubbish until somebody pointed it out to me. I had just finished two back to back Reiki sessions but I felt completely and utterly depressed. My then GF asked me, ‘Who were you working on today?’ That’s when it dawned on me that one of the two people I had been working on had just had a family member die. That’s when it dawned on me that this wasn’t me, that empathic abilities are real.

I believe that all of us have this ability in one degree or another unless you’re a narcissist or a sociopath. Have you ever noticed that when you hang around a certain type of person for a good amount of time that you end up acting like them? Or at least feeling like them?
Today is a good day to reflect. Spend some time alone and start digging in to your true emotions. Start really analyzing if this is you or something you’ve picked up. What are your true emotions? Who are you?

Peace!

This card is the card of Victory!

What an amazing card for an amazing day. Today is Friday the 13th with a FULL HARVEST MOON!!! The last time we had one of these was in 2000 and the next one won’t be until 2049. Not only that but today is my sister Nicole’s Birthday and she is flying out here to England to visit me. Victory!!! So… what does this card mean?

It’s time for you to recognize where you are and how you got there. I know for me I have been blessed to have mentors all around me. I’ve listened and learned, and in turn I have spoken and taught.

I’ve mentioned numerous times about balance, about the Yin and Yang. It’s understanding that we cannot do this alone. If we learn from others we have to therefore teach, to pass the torch… In the music world, probably just like any other word there are egos. There are those that learn from others and then horde that knowledge to rise to a stature above others. Let me tell you… I’ve met some of these inflated egos. They are miserable, alone, and scared. They put up the front of being better than you which only distances them further into their own misery. On the opposite side, the side I do my best to emulate, are the ones that no matter how much success they’ve achieved, they are there to help you along. They WANT to see you succeed.
Today, see that area of your life where you are successful. Recognize the ones that have helped you get where you are. Are you emulating their actions or are you in fear of losing what you’ve gained? Again, balance. There will always be ups and downs.

Acknowledge the ups. Don’t take them for granted. Be grateful, no matter what level of success you have. Be grateful for those that have helped you on your journey. This is the time to teach.

Reflect on the downs. Downs are inevitable. In the Hermetic Principles, one of the laws, is the Principle of Rhythm. As the pendulum swings one way it swings the equal and opposite other way. So when you are down… that is the time to learn, the time to surround yourself with those people and lessons you’ve learned.

Peace!

Gain

Every now and then I freak out about how I’m going to pay for all of this. I mean, I live a pretty meager lifestyle, for the most part. I don’t own a lot, nor do I owe a lot. My expenses stay very, very low just so I can do what I want to do. But even still, when there is no income it can cause a bit of a panic.

I just keep moving forward with what I love, trusting that it will all come together somehow… and you know what? It does. The Universe seems to provide when I least expect it too.
I hear people talking about working hard and saving their money, but quite honestly unless you are working hard at what you love then you are wasting your time. When you work hard at what you love it becomes play. You can do it night and day without feeling that burnout that you feel when you are ‘working for the man’. If you trust that everything is going to be ok and you keep focusing on what you love you will understand this. I know it’s scary, believe me. It’s usually the people that you surround yourself with that are more scared than you are. They are the ones telling you to be careful, to save your pennies, etc. These people are usually the ones that have set them up where they have to do this. They’ve decided that a new car, a house, a boat, nice clothes, etc. are important to them. That’s fine. Again, as long as they are doing what they love. If they are not they are, as Billy Corgan once said, they are just another Rat in a Cage.

I can only speak from my experience so don’t take offense. What I found about about me is that when I usually went out and bought things that I didn’t need it was a sort of comfort food. It took my mind off of the real problems in my life. When I started focusing on the problems, resolving the issues I started to purge all of that extra ‘stuff’. Look at your life. Are you doing what you want to do? What is stopping you? This is your life, not anybody else’s. Do yourself a favor and start living it.

Peace!

Queen of Wands

Posted on

[wdi_feed id=”2″]

Todays card is the Queen of Wands. This is about nurturing ourselves by recognizing where we are, who we are, and what we are doing.

Take some time to meditate and hone in on the areas that you think aren’t working for you. I’ve mentioned previously that life is not linear. Imagine all the aspects of yourself in a circle, as if it’s a pie chart. Each slice of the pie is an aspect of you. Is your pie whole or are there pieces missing? We have true balance when the pie is complete.

There is a saying, ‘What you resist persists’. Take one of the aspects of that pie chart above that isn’t filled. Are you focusing too much on what is working? I’m not saying to disregard what is working, you need to focus on what is working… definitely. What I’m saying here is that the part that isn’t working is ALWAYS there in the back of your mind eating away at you. For instance… let’s say one of the pie pieces is ‘limiting beliefs’. You’ve had a limiting belief about yourself but you ignore it hoping that someday you will believe in yourself, but somehow this limiting belief seeps into another aspect of the pie, let’s take relationships… that limiting belief is going to effect your relationships until you fix that issue.

How do I fix this issue?

I’m just using ‘limiting belief’ as an example of one of the missing pie pieces… replace this with whatever aspect isn’t working.

Focus on that area… meditate on it. Start peeling back the onion layer further and further until you get to the core of that ‘limiting belief’. Where did it start? Do you remember? If you can’t remember keep peeling. Ask for answers. Believe that answers will come.

When you are finished meditating have a pad of paper next to you and start writing. Don’t think about what you are writing, allow your subconscious to do it for you. Let it flow…

After you’ve done 3 or more pages look back at it. Read what it says. There will be some key words in there that might open up some old thoughts or feelings that you weren’t able to tap into earlier. Do this every day until you get to the root of this issue. Then move on to the next.

Remind yourself not to go into beat-up mode. You are perfect just the way you are, you just need a little guidance to give you better direction.

Peace!

The Ten of Wands

Posted on

[wdi_feed id=”2″]

Todays card is the Ten of Wands.

Out with the old, in with the new.

With yesterday’s 999 Portal which was all about cleaning the slate it is telling us to finally wipe it all away. Get rid of all of the old stuff. You might have been doing the work but there is still some residue left over that might bog down your mind from time to time.

What would it look like for you to finally be rid of old patterns, addictions, people, all of which don’t serve you? Sometimes we hang on to old groups of people because we only wish to remember the good times. Take a piece of paper out and write down the good and the bad, not just of the people in your life, but of the patterns and addictions. Are you still learning something from them or are they hindering your growth?

Following a spiritual path is not easy. We’re always going to have people in our lives there to remind us of who we are, but that isn’t true… they are reminding us of who we WERE because they can’t let go. And again, it might be you that can’t let go either?

Take a leap of faith and purge yourself of these people, habits, addictions, whatever they may be and start surrounding yourself with people, places, things that lift you up to be the best person that you can be.

I know what you are saying right now… “But Dave…” There are no buts. The only butt is behind you.

Again, take the leap of faith. It’s scary as fuck, but do it anyway. You’re worth it.

Peace!
