Isis
Knot of Isis
Part of your spiritual destiny
involves a special relationship with the Goddess.
This means
that not only do you have the important spiritual task
of helping her thrive in this world,
but you are afforded her power,
protection and abundance,
too.
You are now deepening your connection
to the Goddess.
Tarot
Three of Cups
Festivities, celebrating, and sharing.
Not leaving, but stepping out of the cosy limits of two-some intimacy.
The transition and new contacts are celebrated.
The boundaries of everyday life shift and expand.
Forget your worries, but don’t suppress them.
A new beginning, a fluid sense of being in the present.
Images and roles change. Celebrating, playing, dancing, and communicating nice and easy.
A celebration is an unfolding and a cleansing.
Heavy emotions transform into lightness and joy and renew themselves.
Archetypes
The Animal
We are mammals. The hair on our chest and between our legs reminds us so. We try hard to deny our unrefined animalistic nature – yet through this archetype we tap into power and direction.
Activating The Animal within means reawakening our relationship to nature in the most broad and embodied sense – drinking from waterfalls, roaring at the moon, opening eyes underwater, eating berries from the vine.
The life force of our planet begs us to set down the devices, the constraints, and the social constructs and remember the warm blood that pulses through our veins. The Animal longs for breath, food, procreation, and physicality. It wants soil under our nails and starlight on our skin.
If this all sounds terribly unsophisticated to you, take note that it is said that when Buddha became enlightened, he roared like a great lion.
When light it is vital, elemental, alive, dances. When dark it is savagery, pent-up emotion, lashing out.
I Ching
20 – The Way of Comtemplation
This hexagram is called Examine, and combines the trigrams Sun and K’un, wind and earth. This hexagram can be interpreted as contemplation. Contemplation is an art that moves you from superficiality and absence, to presence. The key is to gain an awareness about the missing level of depth with which you’ve been living your life. The first phase of contemplation is that our outer life is built upon the foundation of our inner life. This hexagram takes us from within, to enter a higher path, a path of awareness. To see into the truth of who we are we have to learn to be more considered.
The second layer of contemplation is about viewing yourself in relation to the world, feeling the impact our absence and presence has in the world. When our natural inner principles rise to the surface we feel more self assured, which starts to give us a deep sense of purpose in the world. Presence is like the light, and absence is the lack of light. Whenever presence arrives it brings a sense of calm and clarity. The third aspect of contemplation is when contemplation ceases of its own accord. You are no longer seen or the seer, you are simply presence whether moving or still. Presence is utterly surrendered and it is letting go. You can’t force it, it isn’t about will, it’s about perfection. It just requires a love of the subtle. Presence is everywhere in everything.
