Welcome beautiful Beings of Light to Mindfulness Monday. Your mindfulness awareness practice to hold from Monday to Monday.
This message is a general reading, please only take what resonates and leave the rest for who may need it.
This message a timeless message.
Whenever this crosses your ears, it was meant for you in this time to hold and to practice throughout at least the next week.
The Facts of Your Life
The very first card that we have appearing in this reading happens to be the Knowledge card.
When this card appears in a reading, this is fact-based knowledge, stuff that is written down. Things that are teachable and learned.
This card appears with an actual book on it, an old-weathered book. That old leather book is a representation of where you and the facts of the life you've lived.
There's a heavy emphasis on the image of a book as being a journal.
If you've ever written a journal, this is a great time to reflect on some of your latest entries.
What has been the common theme? What are the facts that have been swirling around the entries that you've been writing?
If you haven't been writing a journal, this is a great time to start one.
I've been talking a lot about mapping destiny, which is writing down the facts of your life and the scenarios that you've gone through. Learning or seeing the lessons and becoming aware of the lessons that are in that map of destiny.
This is not any different.
This is navigating your own inner thoughts. Seeing what it is that you're saying about yourself and the experiences that you've been living.
How are you speaking about the choices you have in life, the opportunities that are presented to you, or the challenges that you're facing?
What are your thoughts around what abundance looks like to you, and what it means to be loved.
These [inner thoughts] are important to understandings what you have been thinking for/about yourself.
Banishing Your Curse
Which leads us into our next card, Banish a Curse.
The very first message I received was: The curse that needs to be looked at is the one that you have been repeating to yourself over and over. Repeating so many times, that it's become your story.
This can be as simple as I can't do anything else, I can't live like this BUT refusing to see what the other changes could be.
It’s saying change is just around the corner and only waiting for that change to magically appear.
Instead of deciding to create that change for yourself.
This is why we're looking over our journal and the facts of our life. To understand what emotions we've been going through. What language we are using when we talk about ourselves and our situations.
Recently, I was with a client, they were explaining to me that they only had two options: Deal with it this way or deal with it that way.
There were many other options, but they shut down any other possibility because they truly believed that they were supposed to either do this or do that.
Sometimes we get so blinded by our main goal is that we forget or block out all the other possibilities that are open to us.
Therefore, [we] create a curse on ourselves for which we continuously enforcing and creating stronger. [with navigate self-talk]
The more often we say:
I don't have a choice.
This is my only option.
There is no other way.
The only way I can do this is if I get a magical amount of money.
I'm stuck.
The stronger we make the curse.
We have so many choices in life and sometimes we get so used to the comfort of our misery and suffering, that the idea of sacrificing what we think is that “comfort” [seems too scary].
Which ends up becoming our own curse, our own block, our own trap that we set for ourselves and don't allow us to become free of.
Sometimes when we are in that, “I can't do anything else” phase. It's because we refuse to do the scary unknown thing. The thing that feels impossible because it takes us out of what our “comfortable victim mode”, our “comfortable martyr mode” or our “comfort” of suffering.
Sometimes it's a sacrificing that thought process for yourself. Allowing yourself to start becoming your own hero and creator of destiny. Instead of waiting for the universe to magically align.
Which it will if you choose to sacrifice what the universe is asking. IE the curse you placed on yourself. Take the leap of faith into the unknown scary path and see what opens to you.
Instead of worrying about creating the full plan. Just taking a baby steps into the plan will start to ripple out that divine alignment you've been craving and waiting for.
I have this shirt that says, “Don't wish for it, Work for it.”
That goes hand in hand. There's a balance of that. Yes, you can think in positive thoughts (and wishes), but it also requires positive action.
Part of that is getting your mind straight. Stopping yourself from cursing yourself by saying or holding on to those ideas that you can't.
Finding Fire
Which leads into the next card, which is Passion.
Passion came in as an upside-down awareness. This awareness is asking you to remember what sparks fire in your soul.
This isn't about following many different passions [distractions].
It’s finding the passion that burns brightest within you. Whether that is a passion in a hobby or piece in life.
It doesn't have to be an activity, but in feeling.
You can have passion around being at ease and rest.
You can have passion in your work.
You can have passion in your career.
You can have passion in a hobby.
You can have passion as a parent.
You can have passion in so many different realms.
But it's up to you to find what the passion that creates a spark and stokes that fire so that it burns bright enough for you to find your spice of life.
We have Bealtaine right around the corner. This is a really great time to be igniting those fires. It's the fire festival and it's so much more than that.
But it's the fire festival where we're reigniting the spark of passion in our lives.
The Power to Say, “NO MORE!”
Which leads us into the next joy, [I mean] next card, which is Finding Love.
Now, apparently there's a message about joy in this as I slipped into that. Passion, joy, and love to me are very much all part of a package. They are woven together.
When we have passion, we can have joy it ripples out love. Love ripples out joy, which ripples out passion. You can't have one without the others.
What are the things that are preventing you from seeing that?
This Finding Love card came in upside-down as an awareness.
This is an indication of that Banishing Curses and Knowledge Card.
It’s not about finding that partner, finding that soulmate.
This is about finding that love for yourself that is going show you are enough. That love will fuel the fire and that passion aiding you to say,
“I am done suffering. I am choosing to change what the situation I am. I have enough love for myself that I am going to create a change in how I talk to myself and how I view the situation. I am in to make positive action changes.”
Deflect their Negative Story
Which leads into the last card, the Protection card.
This protection card came in upside-down as an awareness.
This card is asking you to remember that you are protected,
That you have allies [spiritual and physical] around you who are ready and willing to help protect you. So, stop pushing them away.
Stop being the martyr that thinks that you don't deserve to have safety in your life because other people keep telling you you're the problem. Maybe there is a little bit of a problem that you have to work out, but that is for you to figure out internally with this banishing curse. But you are not their problem.
They have created their own realities just as you have yours. They're just looking for a scapegoat to take the blame.
Call upon that powerful protection of light and love with that fire that burns within you to hold protection around you. It will help you reflect their negativity back at them because it doesn't belong to you, it doesn't belong within you, and you are no longer responsible for holding it for them.
Recap
So Beautiful Beings of Light, this week is really about going to those spaces that you haven't wanted to because it's a little scary. To see the truth and beauty of who you [really] are. Especially since other people have placed a navigate story on you for so long.
Banishing the curse that you have placed on yourself. The one that you continually reinforce by accepting their story and the narratives.
Finding love and passion for yourself that burns down any of those constructs that are keeping you from finding ease and joy and love within your daily life.
Protecting that inner peace, that inner fire, and that love of self, so that you can become stronger. Giving you the strength to stand in resistance towards anyone that tries to tell you that your life isn't as equal to theirs.
-
May you find love, joy, happiness, and ease within your daily life.

The second thought is (or is closer) to the truth of who we are…
