Hi there,
I'm Candy Foster.
I'm a channel and an intuitive,
And I pull a card for the collective each day,
Share a channeled message,
And Reiki flow to assist in its integration.
Each month I choose a different deck,
And this month we'll be using the Rumi Oracle by Alana Fairchild.
This deck is a little more eloquent than most and may need more than one listen.
Fellow listeners have informed me that putting it on repeat can be very helpful,
So I thought I'd pass that along.
If you are open to receive the Reiki shared here,
Then simply accept in your mind's eye,
And we can begin.
Today's message is card number 10,
Celestial Rose of Ma.
The taste of bitterness becomes sweetness in love.
The searching in the dark finds the light of faith revealed in love.
Love transforms thistles into jasmine.
Love layers heaven and gifts us with wings to soar into its mystery.
Love transforms our every thought into a desire of the heart,
Oh love.
How divine is your alluring!
Beauty flows from your unseen face.
Your very nature is radiant with joy.
You manifest vibrant hues in every flower.
Your touch dazzles all creation.
Every particle is attracted toward you,
Longing to unite and dwell in you,
Rumi.
The Divine Mother offers me her rose,
How rich that gift may be.
I tear my flesh on its thorns,
And my blood flows.
I curse myself for carelessness,
And yet,
In my desire to grasp this gift,
It happens again and again.
Then I realize such is its scent,
Its beauty.
How can I be tentative in my approach?
My senses are drenched in beauty,
And I long to inhale the exquisite perfume,
To reach for the velvet dew on the petal,
Soft and delicate under my touch.
Perhaps I will be scraped,
And I will bleed,
Yet that is not enough to deter me,
To prevent me from accepting this gift.
The magnificence of the bloom renders the struggle to enjoy it as a worthy,
Noble,
Essential pursuit.
Of course I understand something so precious must be protected.
It must be allowed to live,
More than this to thrive.
So those thorns are hooks that allow for growth for those that would bear the pain of the essent,
The rose's blooming heart.
And those thorns are barbs that keep away those that would consume the creation without appreciating its worth and its beauty.
Yes,
Those thorns serve essential purpose.
I cannot begrudge them,
For I love the rose,
And so I love what is necessary for her to be.
So I love the thorns too.
All right,
Take a moment to settle,
Become present and open.
Open to receive the message and energy shared here.
I'm feeling such a deep connection with Spirit this month,
Every day,
As we go through these messages.
And today's message is so strong and reminding us that all the toil that we go through,
The hurt and the struggles that we go through in this lifetime,
Are growth moments.
They're moments for us to move from.
Sometimes they're our bottom,
And we can go nowhere else but up,
Right?
But it's our reminder to take stock in all of those times in our life that we've cursed the moment,
The sickness,
The breakup,
The loss,
Whatever it is,
And being able to take that moment to look back and see how it served us in being here now,
The thorns that we needed to become who we are today.
So I hope this message was helpful for you today.
I invite you to remain receptive for the next 24 hours,
As this Reiki will continue to you through that time.
And I will see you tomorrow for your daily message in Reiki flow.
Namaste.
