Color: Blue Butterfly
Card: Sensuality
Personal Stone: Obsidian: A counter-agent to fear.
Message: Don’t be afraid to fly alone.
In becoming the butterfly, we must not be afraid to leave the safety of the chrysalis and emerge into new frontiers of experience. Mother Earth is asking you to ground yourself into the physicalness of your being, and begin to feel supported again!
Life transitions can create within us a fearfulness of striking out into the world, thinking that we are not good enough to make it on our own. This fear dampers our ability to connect with the physical life force within us, and we begin to tire out, and lose our willingness to take risks to honor our true nature and inner calling. This leaves us with an “out of body” feeling where our inner spirit tries to flee from stressful conditions of life, exiting from the crown chakra while feet dangle mid air near the knees.
For women, and now also for men, these stressful conditions can come from childhood traumas and abusive relationships where we were unable to stand up for ourselves. Our spiritual bodies then disassociated from the experience and “fled” the scene, leaving our legs and feet unsupported by spiritual grounding energies. In order to manifest your full power of ownership, you must enter the physical realm fulling attached and whole. Simply put, when you are ungrounded, you are no longer full owner of your body and your power is leaking away!
This situation often leads to an increase of foot, ankle or leg injuries or weakness, and times of feeling confusion in the mind – spacey, zoned out, and forgetful.
TAKE ACTION: Your message from Mother Earth is that the universal blessings of abundance that you seek will activate when you surrender your fear and release old hurts, and take back your body as owner! This means honoring yourself in a physical way – exercising, eating right, relaxation treatments, anything that puts the focus and priority on your physical temple’s makeover.
It also means appreciating your roots. No matter what has happened in the past, you have the ability to soar! Don’t give your power away to the fear. Acknowledge the stressful events that have kept you “flying” away for safety, and instead embrace the lessons and vow to stand your ground in the future.
If you haven’t already, make sure to read the post highlighted on my timeline, ARE YOU “ALL IN” FOR LIVING ON PURPOSE? PART I. It describes further about being ungrounded, and offers a beautiful meditation to help you ground back in.
YOUR AFFIRMATION: I like me.
Color: Red Garnet
Card: Play
Personal Stone: Garnet – Embrace passion and prosperity to live renewed
Message: To be inspired is great!
When was the last time you allowed yourself to play? You know, go outside like you did as a child and just enjoy nature, friends, and being silly? Well Mother Earth is calling to you to pick up your feet and Have Fun!
It is true what they say. Laughter IS the best medicine. Laughter reminds us that that life does not have to be so serious. Have you ever looked outside at children, or even your pets, and watched them surrender to the moment? Laughter is always a by-product. You know what else comes from play? LOVE.
When you activate your urge to just let your hair down, and play hooky from our daily responsibilities, you begin to REMEMBER LOVE. Flashbacks and memories begin to explode in your mind as you revel in the good times. Your heart begins to beat faster, and a smile begins to form. Joy, an effect of being in love, is expressed.
Now why is this play time so important? Because when we overdo our “work” period, we live life out of balance, and our passionate, and creative engines, begin to falter. We begin to lose the essence of being alive, as it is squashed down under our lists of what we think we have to do now. Play has other positive effects as well.
Did you know that play also allows us to feel COMPASSION? When we recognize our own needs, we begin to bring our passion for who we are to the surface and join it with our other workaday duties. Giving ourselves a needed break, offers more innovative and inspired ideas to flow, even in the chores of the regular day. Play brings that song to mind that you begin to sing while doing your work, turns on the radio extra loud while you dance to the tunes, and jump -starts our hearts to LIVE again.
TAKE ACTION: Create a new life schedule where play is an integral part of your day. Think about the fun things you have been putting off and begin to schedule them into your calendar. Think out of the box. If Monday is your toughest day at the job, then make PLAYTIME right after work. Schedule drinks with friends, make yourself a bubble bath, or get a sitter and go out with your significant other. Do something OUT OF THE ORDINARY to revive your spirit, and re-ignite your passion.
Mother Earth reminds you that being gentle with yourself is Just Right. Like Goldilocks, it’s okay to be “picky” and desire quiet time for yourself. Remember, YOU are a creator. The plants and earth gardens cannot grow without taking some time off – hence the season of winter. You are no different. Shift your thinking, and embrace your inner Mother by creating a garden of joy for yourself, through Play.
Your Affirmation: I can.
Color : Brown of The Eagle
Card: Dignity
Personal Stone: Selenite – Connect to Your Higher Self
Message: Inspired Transitions: We are spiritual beings.
Have your ever watched the grace and majesty of an eagle in flight? Confidence, power, control, grace are all elements of this amazing bird. An eagle in flight is a thing of wonder. The heights to which it soars, much higher than other birds, offer incredible perspectives of life on the Earth. Their keen eyesight and enhanced awareness allows them to spot even the smallest movement of a mouse, from great heights.
Today, Mother Earth reminds you that YOU are that eagle. It is time for you to understand, and connect to the nature of your self being, and honor the dignity of your spiritual heritage. We are created in the universal duality of twos – having both physical and spiritual bodies joined together in one mask. But when we don’t acknowledge that inner being, we invalidate who we are, and our dignity begins to suffer.
This life of physicality is NOT all there is to living, and it’s time for you to embrace your spiritual side. The card of Dignity, along with the Eagle totem, have come into your life for a reason. Use these questions to guide your thoughts.
1) Do you feel cast about on turbulent winds, or are you shouldering too much responsibility?
2) Are you or a loved one ill or do you feel lost or alone?
3) Have your life purpose or goals become clouded, or do you feel bound to the earth and unable to see over the horizon?
4) Do you feel disconnected from your spiritual self, do you feel as if a higher power or guide is trying to speak to you?
5) Do you feel stifled and suppressed, do you feel a call or itch to be unburdened and free?
If any of these questions resonate with you, then it is time to recoup your Dignity and embrace the gifts of the eagle. It’s time to reshape how you perceive yourself, and celebrate and acknowledge the things that make you unique.
TAKE ACTION: You see, the Eagle has dignity because it flies ABOVE the rest, knowing that it is the Star of the Sky. Now, it’s your turn. Make time to create a memoire, or journal of your “Greatest Hits.” Record the experiences in your life when you flew high above the mountains of mediocrity, and felt accomplished, dignified, and worthy. Pull out pictures from your photo album if you struggle to name your worth. Find old thank you letters from friends who have honored you with their words.
Then, examine your current life. Where have you allowed life to rob you of your honor and relegate you to living a shadow life under those without love? When did this first begin? Acknowledge the truths without criticism and then vow to make a change.
Take time for meditation, and learn to connect to your higher self using the crystalline energy of selenite to guide you. Ask your higher self questions about who you are and what you are meant to do. Ask to be shown who you are as a spiritual, energetic being. You will find you are quite beautiful! Enjoy this process of rediscovery, and prepare to fly like an eagle.

One Additional Note. If you were attracted to pull this card, there could be someone in your life who is very ill, or who has lost their will to live. Perhaps this person has not shared the extent of his/her illness because of choosing to pass from this life with dignity. Make special note of any family or friends, and make an effort to call them. Remind them of how they shaped or touched your life, so that the memories they hold within acknowledge their value and worth.
Affirmation: I am special.
Special Message: Your thoughts can bring a blessing or a curse. It’s up to you to choose. Think happy and you will be happy. <3
