Hello and welcome.
I'm Candy Foster and I'm a channel and an intuitive,
And I've been guided to pull a card for The Collective every day.
So each month I will choose a different deck.
This month we will be using the Inner Temple Oracle deck by Rebecca Campbell,
One of my favorite oracles.
These are such a beautiful deck and they're brand new to me and I'm excited to share them with you.
Today's card is the Burning Rose.
The Burning Rose is a symbol of sacred rage,
Of anger alchemized into something creative,
Into passion,
Not destruction.
We tend to see anger and rage as something we should avoid,
As if expressing these emotions is to be avoided and even wrong,
As if anger is something that should be controlled and restrained.
Boys are taught that their anger is dangerous and women that their rage isn't feminine.
Women who have the courage to harness their anger are often accused of being crazy or unstable,
But this stops the flow of passion and the ferocious urge of the feminine to protect what's sacred.
Anger or rage is often a reflection of what's important to us.
It can be a signpost to our boundaries or lack thereof.
It can be a guiding light revealing what we most truly care for,
Long for,
Or wish to protect.
It can also hold within it the codes of our true passion and purpose,
But we must do the job of listening to our anger and offering it a safe space to be released and expressed.
When we repress something,
There's always a consequence.
It might fester in the body and make us sick.
It might paralyze us and prevent us from living passionately,
Or it might be expressed in a way that are physically,
Mentally,
And emotionally harmful to others.
Alchemizing anger in positive ways and using it to create rather than repress or negatively destroy is some of the holiest work there is.
So the sole inquiry today,
What do you feel angry or frustrated about?
Can you transform that anger into passion by changing your focus from what you're against to what you're for?
That's an eye-opener today.
I hope you found this message helpful today.
Namaste.
