The Empress

Posted on

Good Morning from El Paso, Texas. My host at the AirBnB left me with this sacred space. All decor from India, very peaceful. I am blessed and abundant.

This mornings card is the 3rd card in the Major Arcana. I opened the book to read about it and it said ‘111. The Empress’. As the Universe guides me on my journey I’ve been watching the signs… when I looked at my app on my phone at a rest stop it said I had 333 miles to go, the next time I looked down at my speedometer it said 55.5 miles. It just so happens that my cousin’s house outside of Austin, Texas is 111 as well (There are no coincidences).

So what is she telling me? Well, with the hours ticking away on the Harley I listen to audiobooks. I’m listening now to different speakers from the Hay House HEAL Summit and last nights adventure was with Bruce Lipton. Bruce talks about how our mind works. His research is vast as a scientist. He talks about when we ‘think’ we automatically switch to our subconscious to do all of the tasks while we are thinking. Unfortunately, our subconscious if full of old programs from other people. Usually within the first 7 years of our life we are sponges and we absorb all of these programs from our parents, and most people on this planet are still struggling with these issues.

Recognition is the key. Mind you, I’m not going to get into fine detail about it, I’ll let you explore that yourself or write me and I will go into more detail.

Basically, most of us live with our subconscious mind ruling our lives. The only way to get out of this is to become ‘mindful’, shutting off our ‘thinking’ brain and becoming part of the experience. It becomes timeless like when you fall in love, you are mindful, you aren’t thinking all about anything but being in love, feeling the endorphins, basking in the ‘feeling’.

The Empress is about feeling. She is about being mindful, becoming the observer, basking in the beauty of our surroundings.

Today, as I am on my 500 mile adventure to Austin I will be observing the landscape around me. I will not be ‘thinking’.

Will you join me?

Peace!

The Fool

Posted on

This is the second time this week that I’ve pulled this card. What is spirit suggesting for me? Well… when we get the Fool card it is saying that the day is to be looked at in wonderment. To be embraced as would a child embrace a new day. No old thoughts or patterns because in a child’s mind there aren’t any of those preconceived thoughts or patterns. They haven’t experienced any of these things that we have. There is no bitterness or pain from past relationships, no acquired social conditioning.

Today, as I head back out on the road I want to thank all of the people that I’ve met on my journey so far. Thank them for the lessons they have taught me, some of them unaware that they were teaching me anything, some that were fully aware. I want to thank them for the long conversations, and allowing me to stay in this state of wonderment. As I write this it is starting to sound like I am saying goodbye… nothing could be farther from the truth… I am finally saying ‘Hello’ to the world and that I am ready to embrace it fully with the zest of a child.

My goal for the day is to reach El Paso, Texas… but I am aware now that making a ‘plan’ has ended up bringing me where I never imagined so I will just say this…

Wherever I go, there I am.

Peace!

Today I pulled the 2 of Swords out of my Tarot Deck. This card indicates ‘peace’. It is saying that the mind is at ease when we come to a balance with our soul and mind.

I started this journey to really dig deep to find out who I am so many years ago, but there were so many patterns that I would brush over and subconsciously tell myself that I would either deal with them later or that they weren’t that important. I thought that after my three months in England that would be enough, but that was only the beginning!

After working on the MegaCruise in October I headed back down to my friend Debbie’s place in San Diego, bought a motorcycle trailer, packed my stuff and headed to Scottsdale, Arizona to see my friends Jay and Mary. I had my whole trip planned out. I would stop there, then go to Sedona, then Chaco Canyon, and then continue across the the southern US to Florida where my sister Nicole is. That was my practical rational.

I headed out over a week ago and I’ve been here in Scottsdale ever since, after spending three days in Sedona. Every obstacle, both mental and physical, has kept me here. The lessons keep coming, as if the Universe is telling me that all of my ‘planning’ needs to be released. I need to truly let go and ‘go with the flow’ as I’ve been telling people over and over all of these years and not truly following my own advice.

So.. what have I learned? I’m learning how to truly let go, to allow the flow, and non-attachment to outcomes. It hasn’t been easy. I’m still hanging on to old stuff, but at least now I can truly breathe and see when these old patterns come up.

I would highly recommend anybody to drop it all and head out on the open road to really get to know yourself. If you say you can’t, that you have too many obligations, that you can’t afford it, that you’re not comfortable doing so…. just do it. Fuck it. This is your life. What kind of legacy are you going to leave?

Peace!

Knight of Swords

Posted on

[wdi_feed id=”2″]

Today’s card is the Knight of Swords. This one again! This card came up a few weeks ago for me where I quoted Gandhi, “Speak only if improves upon the silence.”

Yesterday I was out with a dear friend talking about well, everything! During the discussion I mentioned to her that I’m usually formulating thoughts verbally and if the other person isn’t in alignment with me they can misconstrue my words and think me a bit of a scatterbrain. Honestly, I’m not, but I can see how people would think so. I guess I love the art of debate. I love verbally throwing ideas out there and welcoming another persons input, and vise-versa.

Today we have lost the art of debate. Words and ideas that come from us now are either perceived facts or defense mechanisms to support our beliefs. You would think with the advent of information at our fingertips that we could do a little research and come up with our own conclusion with the facts that are out there… but we don’t. We’ve already formulated a rebuttal before another person can speak their truth. We aren’t truly listening to another person… if we were then we would be following Gandhi’s advice.

This brings me to Greta Thunberg, a teenage Climate Activist. Greta has Asperger’s Syndrome. While some see it as an ‘illness’ she see’s it as a superpower. I firmly believe that her superpower was the only thing that could get people to wake up and see what we’ve been doing to our world. People with Asperger’s are very direct, they speak their mind, and are completely honest in their conviction, especially when it comes to Social Justice. This is the Knight of Swords in a nutshell.

Where in your world are you improving upon the silence? Or are you just speaking to fill the silence?

Peace!

The World

Posted on

[wdi_feed id=”2″]

Todays card is the last card in the Tarot; The World.

The World signifies completion in a way… it is telling us that we’ve got a grasp on how all of this works but even though we have a grasp on it, our feelings still prevail.

It’s difficult to just stop emotions from happening, nor would you want to, they are what make us human. Those that are stone faced to you are most likely suppressing feelings inside that will eventually destroy them. Think of your suppressed emotions like a dam; As the waters (emotions) build up there is a lot of pressure put on that dam, the bigger the wall, the more pressure on it and if that sucker breaks…. Oh hell, watch out!

So I understand why you would be afraid to release this pressure. I’m sure you’re afraid that once the flood gates open EVERYTHING will change.

It will. Believe me.

But eventually as the waters settle, after all of the old shit gets washed away; the old patterns, relationships, old feelings of suppression, of insignificance, of abandonment… you will start to notice the people around you who have also let that dam break. No longer will you feel the need to hide. No longer will you feel the need to escape.

Vulnerability is the last step taken before embracing the World card. It’s saying, “Fuck it!”

The freedom of being able to break down, reflect, share, grow… all of these empowering emotions allow you to concentrate on your true purpose in life. It allows you to be you without reservation. It allows you the freedom to express your true authentic self.

I know you are scared, I was too. I am fortunate to have good friends that encourage my expression no matter how quirky I might be from time to time. They have the comfort of knowing that they are seeing the true self, my true self.

Maybe it’s time for a serious breakdown like I had. A feeling like your world is upside down. Maybe it’s time for you to hit rock bottom and build yourself back up? Talk to people that have experienced this. Talk to me if you want. I’ll lay it all out there for you. Whatever it takes to help you live to your fullest potential.

Peace!

Six of Cups

Posted on

[wdi_feed id=”2″]

Today’s card is the Six of Cups. Shakti – Sacred Feminine Energy

This card is about embracing the male and female energies. You don’t need to be female to tap into the sacred feminine. There is a balance of each in every one of us. Most of us are imbalanced and I believe that is why we have most of the problems on this planet right now.

Balancing these male and female energies is extremely important. We’re seeing young people rise up against Global Warming, the MeToo Movement, Social Inequality between the sexes… and on the opposite side we see male dominant energies fighting for their lives by denying all of it, trying to suppress the masses with ‘fake news’ (which they created only to make us doubt our own selves), denying climate change, having a president that we’ve somehow been ok with his womanizing behavior making ‘grabbing the pussy’ a household word. We’re seeing the breakdown of religion which has suppressed the masses for so long as well. All of this is now coming to a head where we will either annihilate our species or we will give in and start working together.

I believe in balance.

I believe that with all of the negative energies around us right now, we have equal positive energies as well and eventually they will polarize so much, creating such unrest that we will have no choice but to balance them.

Where are you off balance? What parts of your life have you suppressed yourself? What are you willing to give up or take in to balance yourself? Possibly embracing Yoga? Meditation? Proper Nutrition?

It’s time for us as a society to rid ourselves of these old ideas and start embracing this new idea that we are God. We are powerful beings, not servants to money, religion, corporations… but true power. The power of love, of unity, of togetherness.

Peace!

Ten of Wands

Posted on

Oppression

Are you feeling a bit overwhelmed?
I told you in our last reading what is going on in my life so it’s not worth the redundancy because quite honestly, even with all of the stress… I chose this life. I have accepted it fully with all of it’s glories and pitfalls.

So what do we do to deal with this feeling of being overwhelmed?

The negatives are drugs, booze, anything that will mask the feeling but not really fixing the issue at hand. The best way is to face it head on.
Fuck it! What can it really hurt?
I’ll be the first one to tell you that every once in awhile I succumb to my vices but for the most part I will spend time alone, in meditation, in reflection, and in appreciation of where I am and how I got here. I count my blessings because I do notice the less fortunate around me. We all go into our pity parties, and it’s usually with the people that we feel safest around. The down side is that side seems to be more prevalent than the lighter side that the rest of the world gets to see all of the time.

I’ve learned the hard way that you can’t dump on your lovers or your friends repeatedly hoping that they have the answers to fix your problems. All it’s going to do is drive them away. That is why it is imperative to have good quality downtime with yourself, nobody else. Stare in the mirror and ask yourself about yourself. Really dig deep.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, it’s ok. Just know that it is a temporary situation that will pass as long as you take a deep breath and allow it all to flow around you.

Peace!
