Welcome!
I'm Candy Foster,
And I am an intuitive and a channel,
And I pull a card for the collective each day.
Each month I choose a different deck,
And this month I've chosen the Yuletide Tarot from Christopher Hughes.
If you have not followed me yet,
Be sure to do so,
As you will get notifications every day when the daily reading is released,
Along with any other meditations,
Reiki sessions,
Etc.
That I have put out.
Thank you for joining,
And I hope you enjoy.
Today's message is Strength,
Self-Control,
Courage,
Compassion.
The term Strength often leads people to misunderstand the nature of this particular card,
For this is not about the expression of brawn and muscle,
But a strength that comes from a lived experience.
As the child moved steadily from the magus to the chariot,
They learned a lot about their own awareness and the development of their character.
In Strength,
We begin to see the consequences of that journey.
We see a figure who is the child in the guise of the spirit of the season,
A figure that captures the modern tendency to embody this spirit in the shape of a benevolent character.
Clothed in the colors of nature at its most fertile,
The figure kneels and offers a handful of moss to a wild reindeer.
In turn,
The reindeer signifies the untamed nature of the natural world and the untamed wild nature within the heart of humankind.
At this juncture,
They share a moment that is gentle and full of compassion.
This comes from a profound sense of strength and courage that each figure represents.
The reindeer does not fear the other,
And the kneeling figure does not believe that any harm will come to them.
They are both meeting in a moment that is filled with an awareness of each other and a faith that in this moment,
They need one another.
This is the embodiment of wisdom that comes from knowing who and what we are.
It is a strength that rises above muscle and force.
This gentle strength can heal old wounds and bring peace where there is discord.
The divination meaning here?
Your strength lies in your ability to use your wisdom,
Not your knowledge.
We can all know things,
But it is a different matter to use that knowing in a sagacious way.
Finding this card in a reading implies that you need to dig deep into the core of your being,
Where truth,
Compassion,
Justice,
And righteousness swim naturally within you.
Listen deeply to your inner voice and the place of wisdom that resides within you.
What the situation needs right now is your strength of spirit,
Not your ability to go into battle.
This is your opportunity to be a bridge to healing and reconciliation.
Use your wisdom wisely,
And it will demonstrate your courageousness and strength to the world in a remarkable way.
That feels like a really great reminder for our presence today,
Really going within,
And I'm getting noticing the things that are triggering us and being that stronger person that can witness that,
Right?
Witness that something is triggering us and really be present with that and react differently.
I hope this message was helpful today.
Namaste.
