Hello,
I'm Candy Foster.
I'm a channel and an intuitive,
And I pull a card for the collective each day.
Each month I use a different deck,
And this month we'll be using the Rumi Oracle by Alana Fairchild.
This deck is a little more poetic than most,
And may need more than one listen.
Fellow listeners have informed me that putting it on repeat is very helpful with its integration.
I think that might suit well this month.
Today's card is number 42,
Dance of the Divine Feminine.
If a tree could move from one place to another,
It would not suffer the pain of the saw or the oppressive wounds.
If the sun and the moon stood still like the rocks,
They could not offer brilliance.
How bitter the taste of water would be if the river stopped its flow,
Remaining still like seawater.
When the seawater rises to become a cloud,
It loses its bitterness and pours the rain of sweetness.
I have given you only a few examples.
You can figure out the rest.
Break away from the self and enter the kingdom of love.
Rumi.
You may feel unsettled,
Beloved,
As though the ground beneath you is not so solid.
You may touch it to see.
Is it moving?
Of course.
It is hurtling through the skies,
Spinning,
Tilting on its axis.
It's amazing you aren't passed out on the floor in utter dizziness.
Yet you stand there,
Imagining you have a choice of not moving.
What funny foolishness.
Let us laugh about it together.
How can you even imagine it?
Only through some misplaced fear.
It is such a small craziness,
Really.
You can cast it off,
That small crazy fear.
Let it return to the Earth Mother to become fertilizer for the far grander and more exciting insanity of divine love instead.
Give up that tiny insanity in favor of the greater craziness of love.
You cannot be unmoved by it.
The rhythm of life will get you shaking your hips eventually.
How could you not become entranced by the gleaming dance floor,
Shimmering with possibility and invitation?
This oracle comes to you with guidance.
Your life may feel as though it is being tipped upside down.
Perhaps you feel as though the great beloved,
In a feisty mood,
Has grabbed your ankles,
Is holding you upside down and shaking you wildly until your skirt is over your head or the pockets of your pants become freed and their contents,
Keys and wallet,
Dropping to the floor in disarray.
Your hair is messy,
Your bottom is in the air,
And your sense of orientation is nowhere to be found.
Blood is rushing to your head and goodness knows you just want to be put down to have a moment to come to your senses.
So the beloved will give you that gift,
But don't imagine it will last for too long.
The great beloved esteems you capable of so much more than being sure-footed and sensible.
You are capable of more whirling and stumbling whilst inspired by the music of the spheres.
