Happy Monday, everyone! I’m happy to return from my blogging break with the first motivational post for the year. I had a wonderful holiday season, celebrating with family and am ready to roll up my sleeves and get back to work. I hope each of you had a fabulous holiday and are feeling renewed and refreshed in the new year.
I struggled with my word for 2024 but kept getting Connection. So I’ll go with that and concentrate on a deeper connection with spirit, my higher self and with others.
I loved this meditation! It left me feeling uplifted and peaceful.
Here is the first reading of the new year.
The Queen of Cups represents nurturing feminine energy. It can possibly represent a person in your life who embodies these characteristics, or it can also be yourself. However, this card can also symbolize the energetic presence of intense emotions in your life. It is time to look within and find the source of the emotions. This card also asks that you be receptive to creative inspiration that’s coming your way. Yay! Spend as much time as you can with people who inspire you.
The Six of Cups indicates harmony and possibly sharing of memories. When was the last time you felt safe, carefree and playful? Spending time with children is a good way to reconnect to you inner child. This card also invites us to share our memories and emotions with others, as we can see the girl offering a cup with a flower in it to another. Perhaps there was a lot of reminiscing with family and friends through the holidays.
The King of Swords serves to pull us back and reign in the emotions with clear intellectual thinking. The position it sits in, falls in alignment with the reading. We’ve had a time to really nurture ourselves and others and the holidays are normally a highly emotional time, but now it’s time to get back to work. This king embodies the characteristics of authority, intelligence and logic to attain your goals. As always, listen to your intuition to guide you as you go forward. You are also reminded to trust your voice in communications.
MY TAKEAWAY:
We had some time through the holidays to share with family and friends on an emotional level, perhaps being with children as I was, but now it’s time to get back to the business at hand and move away from emotions into intellectual logic and communication. Let’s get to work!
This beautiful little dragon card adds the icing to the cake.
