Welcome to Messages from the Goddess,
I'm Lisa and today we're opening a space for guidance inspired by the Goddess Aphrodite.
If this message found you when you're in the midst of exploring relationship themes,
Self-worth themes,
Romance,
Love,
Beauty,
Then you have definitely come to the right place.
I will be pulling two oracle cards as well as some tarot card messages where we can dive on into What message does Aphrodite have for me at this moment?
And as usual,
As I pull the cards,
I just love the message from Aphrodite.
Whenever I focus on energy of Aphrodite,
There's something,
Always something that just makes my heart a flutter.
I can't explain it.
But with that,
All of a sudden we have two Oracle cards,
Balance and Active.
But before we go into our Oracle cards,
I want us to actually dive on into the Tarot because that's what made me the most interested.
The first card I pulled was the Five of Pentacles in reverse.
Then we have the Eight of Swords in reverse,
The Knight of Cups in reverse,
And the Page of Wands in reverse.
I flipped the deck multiple times because I kept getting reverse,
And I was like,
What's going on?
But it just so happened that all of them come in reverse.
But this is actually quite good,
In a sense.
For the Five of Pentacles in reverse and the Eight of Swords in reverse,
Universe,
I see this energy where we may have been smacked in the face with something harsh,
Something harsh we didn't deserve.
Maybe it was we found out that a lover or a partner that we trusted betrayed us.
It could be a job that we thought had our best interests doesn't.
It could be so many things that knocked us off balance.
And the reality is Aphrodite said this is good because you were in a space where you're giving so much energy and you kept putting in so much that wasn't giving back with the five of pentacles.
That's what I'm seeing and hearing.
And the Eight of Swords in reverse,
I am seeing that it's almost as if the situation you were in,
It could have been that you felt trapped in a sense.
I'm getting a little emotional as I read this.
But there is some beauty here with active imbalance.
It's almost as if you recognize,
Okay,
That wasn't the best thing,
This isn't healthy for me,
And now it's time for me to move forward.
But that vivacious,
Energetic,
Dreamy side of you feels a bit jaded.
Especially,
And this is the example,
If you maybe went on a date and you had an awful date and You're like,
You know what,
Something needs to change here.
Maybe it's who I'm attracted to or who I go for,
Whatever the case is.
Maybe it's something within me or maybe I've just I'm going to decide I'm not going to use the dating apps or maybe it's I'm going to use the dating apps.
But there's some sort of freeing of yourself in this situation.
But what I'm seeing with The energy of Aphrodite is Aphrodite's energy is saying,
But don't get jaded.
Night of Cups is a romantic,
A dreamer.
It's very Piscean energy,
Artistic.
And the Page of Wands is vivacious and a go-getter.
This is an energy of confidence and romance and playfulness and beauty and appreciating the beauty in life.
And it almost feels with the Eight of Swords and Five of Pentacles in reverse,
It almost feels as if we can get jaded,
We can get stuck in the negative.
With the oracle card of active,
It can be very much active extroverted social signs.
So that could be Libra,
Gemini,
Aquarius,
As well as the fire signs.
Very common with fire signs with page of wands here.
We have Aries,
Sagittarius,
And Leo energy coming up.
So there's something here about not looking completely at the negative with balance.
Duality is about honoring the dark and light of every situation.
It's almost this practice that I like to play with.
How lucky am I?
How lucky am I that I get to start again?
How lucky am I that I know my worth and I can walk away from things that don't serve me?
How lucky am I that maybe someone who didn't deserve me or a situation that didn't deserve me let me go?
How lucky am I to know the truth?
How lucky am I?
How lucky am I?
So in a sense,
The how lucky am I is taking a bit of that really intense,
Harsh situation and looking at it as a portal,
A portal to something more,
A portal to what you deserve,
A portal to maybe who you once were before the drama.
And I am seeing with Aphrodite,
Aphrodite is saying,
Lose that vivacious lover of life,
That romantic,
Because of what happened to you.
Take what happened to you and transform it into something for you.
Let it be the energy that propels you towards your next steps,
Your new beginnings,
Your new chapters.
With that,
It's a lot to unpack,
So feel free to come back to this message,
See what resonates with you.
And for journal questions,
I have these questions for you.
Where am I cynical when it comes to my life and the beauty in my life?
Where was I naive in the past?
And what's the balance in between?
Between cynicism and between naivety.
Because naivety or naivete is almost seeing the world through rose-colored glasses.
And cynicism is seeing the world through dark-colored glasses when it's somewhere in between.
So practicing this idea of if I can look at myself,
My life,
Certain situations,
See it through rose-colored glasses or dark-colored glasses,
What would those messages say?
First,
What would those messages say if I were able to look at it from a grounded place of both lenses?
Or maybe not rose-colored or dark-colored,
But simply all the colors,
All the reality.
What would come up for me?
So with that,
My friend,
That is messages from the goddess Aphrodite.
I hope the message served you and feel free to come back and re-listen to the message a couple of times Feel free to maybe sit on it,
Journal,
Let a couple of weeks go by and come back Maybe listen to it again.
See what comes up for you.
See what changes tarot cards can be great portals for meditation So with that I will see you next time Bye for now.
