I Offer My Power in the Service of Love.

Today’s card is the 4 of Pentacles.

Stability, security. But on the dark side it can be the fear of loss. Fear of change.

Although I know that change is an ever present, ever constant reality, I find myself still fighting it. Last night I barely slept because of this fear. I hunkered down in my favorite escape pose and numbed myself, all the while ‘knowing’ this was escapism. Part of the human experience is just that, it’s an experience. If we can’t experience dark, we wouldn’t know light. If we didn’t know pain, we wouldn’t know pleasure, etc.

The universe has a way of making us look at our demons. No matter what, we will have to face them sooner or later.

Yesterday I talked about loving yourself and others, and that loving yourself was imperative first before you can truly love another.

Today, look in the mirror and tell yourself you love you. Look in your eyes. Look at your flaws that you’ve tried to hide from yourself and others. Get raw, get dirty. Fuck it. Hide nothing. What do you have to lose but your true self?

Face the seemingly ugly truth that you are indeed flawed and that if others don’t like your flaws it might just mean that they don’t like theirs either. Life is a mirror. What we see is what we get. Once you see the beauty within yourself that is what you will see outside of yourself.

Peace!

The Empress

Today’s card is the Empress. It’s about unconditional love. Of others and of self.

I have a confession and possibly a lesson for you all. Recently, within the last month, another relationship has ended with me. So many relationships that I have had have ended the same way, with the other person hurt, feeling rejected. The role that I have played in these relationships was never meant to harm, but always turned out that way.

You see, when you lack love for yourself it eventually projects itself out on others as it has recently for myself.

What do we do when this happens?

It’s imperative for us to do the work! Go within! Find the root of the suffering and heal it. Nobody but yourself can do this. I was mistaken to think that being alone for 5 years would solve this problem, but it hasn’t. The work must continue no matter how long.

Please don’t pity me. This isn’t a cry for help. It’s just another lesson on this planet of lessons.

If you are suffering, reach out. Talk to somebody. Just keep a distance from the pity party.

Please visit my website in the link on my profile or keep me here on Instagram as I have left Facebook for a little while.

Peace!
