Hello and welcome to this collective oracle reading my name is Simone,
And I'm going to be doing our collective Oracle reading today from a deck called sacred cycles Our deck for September however if you're listening to this at a later time or a different time Please know that this collective reading can Bring you wisdom at any time Today the card we have is the red tent and this card asks us to create a sacred space for ourselves The red tent tradition if you're not familiar is a space where women would go to spend Their menstruation.
It's an ancient ritual and a space that's created from Many different traditional cultures to respect and honor our bodies this card is not only for Female bodies or women of people who identify as women but for anyone It's about creating a safe space for you to honor and connect with your body the red tents were also sometimes called moon lodges or Menstrual huts and it was a place for women to go and Spend their menstruation among other women this is a place where they would rest and and get away from the Obligations of daily life with an opportunity to connect with the other women who were on their same Cycle it was a sacred and safe space to connect with other people and Therefore offered a sense of community in our modern day We don't have as many of these types of spaces available to us as Perhaps and were available in ancient times There are some spaces that are similar to this but To know that you can do this on a smaller scale You can do it within your community if you want to or you can do it within your home This card really like I said is for anybody anybody.
It's for a person who bleeds or a person who doesn't bleed but it's all about creating a sacred space to take a timeout to take a pause and To reconnect with the self to reconnect with those around you What does your body or soul need at this moment and can you create a Small space even if it's just an hour a day or a little nook in your house That's just yours That you can have your own chill out time in it's a space for personal reflection For regaining strength and for resting and for rebuilding body and Especially if the body is ill or if the body is going through menstruation,
You know It needs a little bit of extra TLC and this is your call to be doing that This card asks you to create a physical space and to actually delineate it.
Is it a chair?
A room in your house whatever you can do a space in nature,
Whatever you can do to kind of create a Little Space for you to begin to explore self-care If you're not like already as self-care experts,
Then this card definitely reminds you that there's no reason to hurry to do that You can take a small step Even if it's just a cup of tea today that in and of itself is a secret space in order to reconnect To your body and to honor those parts of your body that need rest We are human beings and human beings are designed to require rest so Even though we live in a society that's more capitalistic and pays more attention to What we produce rather than what we do to rest on that doesn't mean that our bodies have ever stopped needing Rest in fact,
They require it.
And so this is your little reminder To find a small way to take a step back and Just Relax and rest and give your body that what it needs in order to heal because our bodies are self healing but they do require a Little bit of space to do this.
And in fact if we think about the power of our bodies self-heal,
It's it's really infinite However,
It does need some spaces to relax and to take a step back if You are following along with a journal then Now it'd be the point in which you could write down the answer to the following question if you could have an ideal Sacred space or red tint space.
What would that space look like?
And what it smell like and what would it feel like?
What would it sound like?
Go ahead and write that in your journal if you do feel called to do so and remember That if this didn't resonate with you as it is a collective reading and I have many more collective readings on my profile so feel free to head back and Choose any reading that resonates with you and in the future if you're looking for some guidance can always come back We would love to have you Thank you very much and we would appreciate if you would leave a review of how this reading Helped you or didn't help you or whatever you think about it.
Thank you.
Bye
