Hello everyone and welcome.
Today we're diving into a little bit of tarot or terror or I don't know there's a lot of different ways to say it.
I personally say a tarot reading but it is about the dance of the masculine and feminine.
I ask one simple question to get us started and it was as a collective at this time what do we need to know and the message was quite beautiful.
It was all about the dance of the masculine and feminine so let's get into it.
The problem that came through was the masculine and it was a card from the Oracle of the Moon deck and in this deck and with this card it says that the masculine speaks to power and sovereignty and structure but as the problem in this particular spread it shows up in its shadow form of control dominance and the urge to force outcomes or to act before you've had time for full clarity to arrive in the situation.
Right now this masculine energy may feel like pressure either within you or around you.
The challenge is to not discard the masculine not to forget that it exists entirely but to recognize when its need for control is out of balance.
In the place of the self we have the eight of swords and in the deck that I used for that card it was the Work Your Light Oracle deck and here in this particular deck you see a person looking into a mirror with a blindfold on but it's loosely tied.
You already see the truth of the situation but part of you wants to look away.
Sometimes clarity can feel like a burden and the feminine in this place whispers you are not truly trapped you can step out of the cage whenever you are ready.
This card shows a particular energy of tension.
One version of the self sees with clarity the other longs to retreat back into illusion.
If you're listening to this trust that you're being invited to choose consciously.
In the place of hopes and fears we have the Hermit from the same deck and the Hermit pretty much in any reading will tell you that it's time to turn inward to tend to the inner flame of your own soul.
In the position of hopes and fears you hope for rest and reflection but you fear that if you sit still will the truth catch up to you and if you allow yourself to sit still and to feel everything that you're feeling what will you do with it?
The Hermit is not a card of stagnation but it is an active offer to pause to listen and to gather wisdom.
The feminine loves this space it's like a gestational womb.
The masculine resist it because it can't do anything here there's no room for action you're just sitting and receiving.
In the place of the conscious the deck that called to me for this was the Rebecca Campbell work your light oracle deck and the card that came through was M Rama and that card has a very simple message.
Where are you being called to journey to?
It speaks of your soul's great pilgrimage.
You are aware that this is a moment that is part of your larger path.
One that unfolds over lifetimes.
The masculine wants to see the map they want to see the full picture and move through it and tackle it but the feminine invites you to trust the waters that carry you trust in the unseen trust in the space trust in the sacred pulse.
In the place of external we go back to that oracle of the moon deck and we pull a card of the unexpected which is a very beautiful card of like this um um it's like a globe or a ball it's a ball of I mean I see it as like a ball of light but it's also like um a magic ball that you're looking into and it's two figures standing there together supporting each other and it's a very simple message to expect the unexpected that the unexpected is moving around you constantly synchronicities meetings setting sudden events things that can pull you off of your familiar path this is where the flexibility of the feminine serves you well if you can loosen your grip you may find the surprises are actually blessings and then in the space of the unconscious we go back to that work your light oracle deck with Rebecca Campbell and it's a very similar message um from Imrama is Lumeria that deep within you you carry memories of a different time and a different land memories of Lumeria the dream of harmony flow and that interconnectedness your soul knows how to find balance how to trust the unseen tides this unconscious feminine wisdom is guiding you even when you feel lost and when I speak of feminine here I'm not speaking of male and female within each of us we carry masculine and feminine energies and that's the part that this message is speaking to your influence of the situation is the two of pentacles and the two of pentacles is all about finding balance between two options two paths two ways of being the masculine again wants you to choose quickly to control the outcome the feminine reminds you that balance is dynamic and not static you don't need to rush you need to dance with both until that clarity arrives and the outcome position is the hanged man and it's the key that by the end of this journey your perspective will shift not through action but through surrendering the masculine hangs upside down learning that stillness itself is a teacher and if you can lean into that in the future you will have abundance when you release control abundance flows in if flow requires a clear channel with no debris no force the feminine promises fertility creativity and expansion but only when you stop grasping and start receiving and you've done this before so it's interesting because in the past position we have blossoming and this means that in the past you have blossomed you have built something from nothing you've grown in some way you've tackled a dream or a hope and there's a page of cups here that came through that reminds you that once you thought the dream that you're currently living or a dream that you have lived was impossible but it wasn't and you have to in this moment almost allow yourself to go there allow the daydream to come allow yourself to believe in the impossible what also came through was the world that shows you've already completed a great cycle so don't discount that and then the seven of wands was the last card that shows where you defended your vision when it mattered and these i'll sit as a reminder that you can do this again you can dream big you can complete a cycle and you can defend what is yours there is such an integrated dance of the energies within this spread the just to give you some overall themes that came through as i was sitting with this the spread is not asking you to reject the masculine but it is asking you to notice when it tries to control what cannot be controlled the feminine leads she pauses she listens she dreams she trusts the masculine will return in balance to protect and support those dreams the masculine being in the problem position again is about that sovereignty structure order power action control and when it shows up as the problem it suggests that you may be sitting with one of two issues one too much masculine force too much rigid thinking control dominance pushing the need to fix or do when the invitation is actually to pause and receive like we have with the hermit the hanged man and abundance the second problem could be a lack of integrated masculine which can look like an avoidance of setting healthy boundaries avoiding picking a direction avoiding structure leaving you in that eight of swords loop where you see it but you don't want to act on it if it feels like you're wrestling with both of these one part wanting to find clarity wanting to force it to act on it to decide to fix it that's an over expression of the masculine the other part wanting to stay blindfolded not engaged letting the river carry you an under expression of the masculine where you don't have firm boundaries and you don't have a direction the tension between these two poles that's the problem so how do you get through it you sit sorry you just have to sit you have to sit in it um blossoming in the past position i found it very interesting and i just want to talk for a minute about those clarifiers the page of cups the world and the seven of wands um it talks about how you've blossomed in the past and what you did in those situations so the page of cups was the dreaming self the wonder the magic of what if blossoming came from innocent curiosity creative imagination and that emotional openness maybe you forgot that along the way and you can invite that all back in with a sense of joy and play and turning inward and taking that time doesn't mean sitting in a room laying in bed not doing anything but it can come through by inviting joy and play spending time with loved ones not pushing so hard down a path towards a goal but just inviting in some ease the world is a cycle completed mastery or leveling up you've already finished a big chapter and you've received wisdom from it you know the landscape to success because you've walked it before yes this is a different path and it's going to look different and the steps that you need to take are going to be different but they're founded in the same action when it's time and in the right way seven of wands you didn't just dream it you defended it blossoming requires you to hold your ground against the naysayers against the inner doubt against the outside pressure so your blossoming in the past was caused by allowing yourself to dream wildly protecting those dreams and carrying them all the way to completion so in this weekend this week this month however this shows up for you expect the unexpected something may present itself that shakes you loose from your current perspective allow that to happen and see where it goes if you want to journal around this to take time and think through like what does this mean for me and how is it showing up for me i would invite you to ask yourself these questions where are you pushing too hard in your life what are you forcing clarity around instead of allowing the perspective to shift how can you honor the call to rest without fearing stagnation what unexpected blessings may arrive if you soften into trust i hope this lands and resonates and as a closing i will leave you with this i release the need to control i honor the pulse i trust the flow and i welcome abundance in perfect timing the masculine protects the feminine guides and together they lead me home to balance have a beautiful day a beautiful evening and a beautiful night blessed be blessed be blessed be
