November 29, 2020: “Holding Pattern”
For the Collective....again
Excess: Lake (Stillness )
Deficiency: 10 of Swords
Key to Balance: Love (Compassion) with Rune Perthro
Things this week may be unusually quiet & not near as active as they should be. There may be forced inaction or an imposed slow down. A long sought out conclusion seems very slow in coming. All we wanna do is to pick up the pieces & go home but we cannot seem to get a clear end to the conflict, suffering, grief or darkness. We may experience a lack of acceptance that the worst has happened & it’s time to wave the white flag & move on. But there’s resistance & an overabundance of wanting to wait it out some more. This will just delay the inevitable. But with Pethro here, we cannot nor are we allowed to know what that inevitable is. So here we sit in a kind of holding pattern teased by the faintest promise of an end to the madness. Despite it being pretty frustrating, we need to come to a place of patient acceptance, knowing this stagnant moment in life is without a foreseeable end. Key to remember here that there are certain moments in our life that are beyond our control so don’t take it too much to heart. We have to make peace with the Unknown. It may provide some with a certain amount of happiness or comfort in the freedom of knowing that some decisions are not ours to make. We have to trust the Universe has our best interests at heart & let it work on our behalf. If we have acted in good faith, it will be in our favor. If not, there will be consequences to our actions. It’s worth noting, The End is never really the end. It’s just Change. A “consequence of an evolutionary force”, that requires one to have faith that somehow things will work out in the end. And since no one can know in advance what the Universe has in store, it’s up to us to face our fate regardless and adapt accordingly. Somethings are beyond our understanding. What is going to heal us & our soul is a deep mystery but having love, compassion & understanding for others & ourselves should be our focus now. This time of stagnation should allow ample time for reflection.
November 22nd, 2020: “Truth Shall Set You Free, If You Let It”
​
For the Collective:
Current Situation: Judgement
Obstacle: Devil (Reversed)
Advice : Queen of pentacles / Forgiveness
This week brings the need for accountability as something becomes very clear. A new truth, apparent to some, is struggling to be brought into the light of day. Some will ‘wake up’, find their voice, and take a stand. Others may struggle to get a grip, feel repulsed & reject what is declared remaining bound to what enslaves them. Despite what is being shown, they still cannot “see the light”. Communications or surfacing truths may bring vindication for some since they previously proclaimed this as truth. Others are challenged by this truth & will refuse to leave their bondage despite what is declared. Either way, there will be trouble. Therefore, we can expect a delay from being released from a terrible situation. We are still bound to its lingering mess.
In addition, there’s a want to come to grips with the past & embrace the phrase “What’s done is done, there’s no going back”. Yet there is a return to some toxic behavior that should have been left behind. Some might find themselves reverting to bad habits or behaviors or even addictions. Judgement brings the feeling of “I have had enough of this; I want it over now” but yet we are having difficulty turning over a new leaf. Escaping from the toxicity, negativity & oppression is a challenge. Most will want to make peace with everything, let go & move on. A real desire to embrace recovery & heal from trauma. But instead of gaining any real traction & positive change, there’s a sense of being pulled back into the muck. Queen of Pentacles offers some warmth & integrity here since she exists to soothe & heal those in need. It’s hard to help those who are unable to see their own self-denial that prevents them from freeing their minds and thus their life. You can only hold space for those open to receiving practical, thoughtful & loving advice. Support who you can. Be as nurturing as you can, lend a shoulder to cry on and hold forgiveness in your heart. Forgiveness is a choice that goes beyond absolving past actions. It releases the anguish & torment our souls have had to cope with. Avoid feeding resentments, ill feelings or grudges as they will keep you bound to darker energies. Absolve past hurts with gentle loving care to bring transformation & healing to this troublesome situation.
Where do you stand now? Love (Compassion)
What do you aspire to? Shaman (Ancient Healing Wisdom)
How do you get there? Last quarter (Release & Let go) w/ Adjacent Possibilities
November 15th , 2020: ”Force of Habit Obstructs Choices”
This week has us needing to reach out to another in compassion, love & mutual understanding as well as forgiveness. Perhaps it’s another needing to extend a hand to us in reconciliation or support. Either way, love & compassion should be your focus now as means to heal & let go of hurt feelings or old wounds. The card Adjacent Possibilities indicates that there are unconsidered options to healing, reconciling or coming together. A different door, a different option that may have not been thought possible before. Let go of expectations or thinking your way is the only one. Be flexible and aware of another solution, or way. It will show itself to you or the other person may just suggest it unexpectedly, perhaps out of character. You have more options than you may have realized, you just need to take a wider view of things.
This could be reuniting conflicted or opposing parts of yourself. If this is the case, you will have to show compassion & forgiveness towards yourself in order to reach a state of wholeness once again. Sometimes force of habits can keep us stuck making choices that are not helpful. Consider different & unexpected ways of getting rid of the unnecessary emotional & physical clutter that you have accumulated sickening your spirit. Free yourself, surrender to the release and fall into this transition.
November 8th, 2020: “Home is where the Heart is”
Do This: Kyanite Blue (Letting Go)
Don’t Do This: Pyromorphite (Patience)
Overall theme card: Othala Rune
​
"Cho Ku Rei" artwork from https://www.facebook.com/EnePatonStudio
​
The overarching theme this week is the rune Othala which represents what we inherit from our forefathers and pass on to the next generation. Not everything “handed down” needs to be passed on, however. The self-clearing & expansive energy of Kyanite encourages us to let go of all challenging energy that has kept us at odds with ourselves & others. In regard to Othala, it would mean letting go of “inheritances” (emotional baggage, ancestral beliefs or ill-fitting identities) that need to be abandoned by you now. As you shed what no longer serves for yourself, do it with patience & don’t force things before they are ready. Pyromorphite will give you courage and enhance your ability to speak your truths but resist the urge to assert your process on others. You’ll not win over others with verbal arguments when all they want to do is to adhere to their own value system, form their own personal opinions and set their own life direction. Othala asks us to keep the peace at home and maintain the harmonious ties within the family by having compassion in both communication & decision making. Kyanite supports us with calm, clear communication & sensitivity where we respect boundaries free from anger or frustration. Everyone has to make their own independent decisions based on what brings them fulfillment & joy. Since Pyromorphite helps to shed light on how the Law of Karma works, people will be held cosmically accountable for whatever choices they make; so let the Universe sort that out.
Othala also speaks to accepting the wisdom of our ancestors who have passed through trials and were enriched by their difficulties. To draw inspiration from your predecessors & learn their wisdom. Even though Kyanite invites you to abandon what does not resonate Othala however, asks you to seriously consider, if you could benefit from this knowledge rather than dismissing it with contempt. For if this wisdom was to be followed, it would put you on the right path to not only help yourself but others. Only you can make that determination after compassionate reflection.
November 1st, 2020: “Move Forward in Positivity”
Incoming influences: 9 of Swords
What to concentrate on? 6 of Swords/ The Empress
Best way forward: 8 of Cups/ Jera Rune
This week could have you awash with great anxiety & gripped by exaggerated fears over potential disasters. Current events or life situations could introduce troubling thoughts or paralyzing worries that will lead to emotional pain or mental anguish. There may be several troubling thoughts keeping you up at night unnecessarily. There may not be much you can do about it as it may be out of your hands. So, instead of obsessing on what may or may not happen, it would be best to move to a more optimistic state of mind. By shifting our focus from what could potentially go “wrong” to seeing this as an opportunity to create a “Heaven on Earth” for yourself. In short, to focus on creating comfortable happiness despite what crap is going on around you. Life is full of ups & downs & we must be able to ride those tides with patience, resourcefulness & determination. As a result, you may have to alter your priorities as you reinvest your attention towards things more meaningful. It’s not easy to change a perspective. The key is to make small changes, every day, gradually for the better. Remembering to turn away from empty pursuits that do not allow for cultivating a more fulfilling state of mind.
Draw from your mature wisdom to know challenging times give us the opportunity for growth & like all things, this too shall pass. Ready yourself for future events & use wisdom so your results come out better than expected. Keep a positive attitude, common sense & as you move forward with equanimity towards potentially better times. A new season will be upon you so there’s no need to enter it full of dread.
