This week, the cards drawn are Opportunity and Trust, from the Sacred Destiny Oracle by Denise Linn.

The Divine has a gentle reminder for us this week that at times life can feel like feast or famine… thriving or barely surviving.  Rich, verdant forest…. or parched desert sands. Remain open to the opportunities that exist all around you, trusting that just when it feels like all is lost, respite is just over the next dune.

While life is more of an ebb and flow than a steady stream of ease and fulfillment, the crescent moon glowing through the trees in both these cards serves as a reminder that life is all about cycles, just as the moon waxes and wanes, so too does life.  There is nothing new under the sun.

Ebb or flow, it’s all part of a larger cycle at work.  We can choose to flow with it or fight against it.  Flowing with the cycles of life will bring us more into alignment than fighting against them.  When life feels difficult and out of sync, remain positive and secure in the fact that better things are on the way, as this is how cycles work.  We attract what we focus on, so maintaining a mindset of gratitude, positivity, and abundance is key in settling into the ebb and flow with grace and ease.

Even when things feel parched and barren, as we see in the Trust card, we need to remember that there is often something much deeper at work.  Something we cannot see on the surface is taking root and preparing to burst forth with proper tending. Just over the next rise is the glittering sea, full of life and promise. To get there, we must keep going.  How many things in our lives never reach their full potential because we’ve given up?  It’s easy to grow discouraged when we cannot see the foundations, the roots, that are being laid beneath the surface in preparation for the explosion of growth above ground that will come.

Just.

Keep.

Going.

It’s important to stay open and receptive at this time, fully expecting and accepting the abundance, vitality, and joy that are just on the horizon. Meditate and go deeper, trust the intuitive nudges you’re receiving right now, your spirit guides and angels are close at hand, ready to deliver perhaps some of the most important messages of your lifetime.  Your intuition is spot-on, so trust it.

Ask your oracle or tarot deck the following questions:

What opportunities are presenting themselves in my life right now?

What might I be overlooking?

What area of my life is setting deep roots, even if I can’t see it on the surface yet?

Don’t have a tarot or oracle deck?  Instead, use these questions as journaling prompts for a deeper dive into what is going on with you inwardly right now.
