Today’s card is the Queen of Cups. Of any of the cards she embodies empathy. How many empaths do I have out there? Raise your hands.
As an empath myself, I know that we pick up on feelings. In most cases this can be a great thing if you are a healer, an artist, a politician. As Chris Cornell once sang, “Reach down and pick the crowd up.”
But, if we aren’t careful, if we don’t ground ourselves or get ample time alone we start taking on the characteristics of those around us. The Queen of Cups with her empathy can put herself in another’s shoes even if it’s to her detriment.
Today I would like you to feel these emotions. I want you to focus on yourself though, as scary as it might seem. All too often we don’t even know our own emotions because we are so focused on others.
When I do Reiki on clients I am careful to ground myself first. Too many times in my past I’ve taken on their emotions only to question myself later, asking, “Is this mine? Or is this someone else’s?”
So, again. Feel your feelings. Give yourself some alone time, so at the very least you know these are yours and not something you picked up along your path.
Peace!
