| Card for today |
"If you have found your truth within yourself there is nothing more in this whole existence to find. Truth is functioning through you. When you open your eyes, it is truth opening his eyes. When you close your eyes, it is truth who is closing his eyes."
| Additional Card for today |
It's time to take a look at your own reflection in the pond, and make a move to break out of whatever you have been conditioned by others to believe about yourself. Dance, run, jog, do gibberish - whatever is needed to wake up the sleeping lion within.
The Osho Zen Tarot cards I ordered came a few weeks ago, they are so beautiful. I don't always draw a card every day but when I do I often find it is the Inner Voice card.
I visited Inner Excavation Along again today and was prompted to write a "poem" about this inner voice, and the quiet I am encouraging within myself just now. It was a simple prompt - "I am"- it started with "I am quiet" and that is what is happening right now. I am practising becoming still and quiet so I can hear inside me, and so that I can see the essence of others. I am practising trusting my inner voice and the goodness of myself and others. I am practising curiosity.
Whilst I am reluctant to buy another book, add any more blogs or listen to anymore podcasts, I do know I need to just take the essentials with me on this journey. Perhaps Inner Excavation might be what I need right now and I am not sure I can join in properly without the book. I'll play along for five more days without it, then we'll see. In the meantime some decluttering is happening here.
I am clearing out the clutter of noise, so that I can hear inside me.
I have several different cards but I don't use them everyday either. I want to set up a little table and put them out. They always teach me something.
ReplyDeleteI have a couple of other sets too, which I have moved on from. One set I keep in a purple box by my bed. It would be nice to have somewhere to keep them all together with other comforting sources of wisdom. I have often heard people say they have an alter of some sort or meditation space. That would be lovely!
DeleteI don't use cards like you do but I try to make time at the end of every day to lie down in the quiet of the night before bed. I use that time for gentle stretching and relaxation as well as meditation on God or other things that he may through his spirit be trying to teach me. It is only in the stillness and quiet that I can hear properly :-) I think relaxation and decluttering is a good thing both mentally and in our physical space. I'm still working on both. I do have something else that I use in the morning. They are little cards with the promises of God written on them. I choose one or more each morning and meditate on that for awhile. It is often something I needed to hear that day. Hugs.
