” To only revel in the rising sun (and demean times of endings) depletes your energy.”
This line in today’s card description truly speaks to me. Over the past few days, I was in a mode of reducing distractions and culling things that are no longer active in my life (much of this was on social media). Last night I was in a group conversation that showed I was not alone in feeling that we are too divided and we are distracting ourselves from being productive and from making our mark on the world.
And then last night, nature washed things clean too: we received and more than an inch and a half of rain. Sometimes, nature’s augury shows us the way.
If anyone else is feeling like this lately, I hope today’s card helps your achieve the wholeness of self that you need. Blessings!
Circle of Life
Meaning: All things are possible. Stand in your center and be open. The Four Winds are bringing your dreams to fruition. Embrace and accept where you are in the great circle of life. Bounty and abundance are flowing to you. If you’ve had relationship or financial challenges, things are about to change.
Native Spirit Wisdom: The circle of life (called “The medicine wheel” in Native American traditions) symbolizes a cosmology that honors all the circle of life. Those in Western cultures tend to see life as linear; however, those in indigenous cultures view all life as a circle. When this card chooses you, it’s time to honor and cherish all aspects of the great circle. All parts of the journey have beauty and grace. There’s beauty in the rising sun, just as there is in the setting sun. To only revel in the rising sun (and demean times of endings) depletes your energy. Choose what is and you become master of the Universe (or at least of your own personal universe).
The Journey: Create a medicine wheel for yourself. It can be as simple as creating a circle of stones that you place on your desk or making a circle of stones or pinecones that you lay outdoors. As you place each part of the circle, hold the intent that you’re honoring all aspects of your life.
