Happy Monday, Beautiful Souls! Here are the cards from this week's Monday Magic! This is definitely a special MM! First, this is a brand new deck - these powerful cards come to us from the "Mystical Shaman Oracle" by Alberto Villoldo, Collette Baron-Reid, and Marcela Lobos and they are packed full of incredible imagery and "will give you a deeper understanding of the web of life, how everything is connected, and how your place in the world is not random but deliberate and divine." (If you're interested in acquiring these cards for yourself, you can purchase them on Amazon by clicking here). Secondly, each of the 3 positions in this week's MM! contains not 1, but two cards - so lots of energy swirling and lots of wisdom and teaching for us to contemplate this week! See below for your cards' descriptions. Each description contains three components: The Essence (the heart of the card's meaning), The Invitation (outlines the gifts that Spirit is offering to you at this moment and acts as a call to action), and The Medicine (highlights the aspect of your life or relationships that need to be brought into balance and repair). Use your intuition to help guide you as to which is being offered to you at this moment - the invitation or the medicine - and be open to the possibility that it might be both! And, as always, feel free to reach out if you are interested in deeper interpretation or have questions as there's a lot to unpack. And as always, here's to a love-filled and Magical week! <3 1) THE CHILD (7) and THE BLADE (6) THE CHILD THE ESSENCE The Child knows the way to joy and happiness. The Child offers the return of a second innocence, a time born of wisdom and not of naivete. This card allows you to correct your course and offers you a second chance. It brings you the possibility of redemption and entering heaven while on Earth. THE INVITATION The Child is here to release you from the habit of being yourself, and to help you acquire a beginner's mind so that you can see life as if for the first time. Remain open to learning and discovery. Who is your spouse or partner today? Can you see them with fresh eyes? Who is looking back at you in the mirror in the morning? Become a mystery unto yourself, and reconnect with a sense of childlike wonder. THE MEDICINE The Child comes to show you how you can correct the course of your life without being punished. Set yourself free from your conditioning for suffering; you were born unfettered and happy, and can be so again if you make the choice right now! The Child will help you climb out of the hole you may have dug yourself into, to recover your sense of play. _______ THE BLADE THE ESSENCE The Blade represents sharpness of the mind, body, and spirit. Pointing upward, it summons the power of heaven. When aimed down to the ground, it anchors the power of the heavens on Earth. The blade can be a healing tool or a weapon. Wield it wisely, and it will transmit power, bestow initiations, cut energetic cords from the past, or sever toxic relationships. Use it with anger, and it will slash, stab, and kill. THE INVITATION You are invited to draw your blade and use it. It is not auspicious to hesitate, to waste time in idle talk, or to hide from the inevitable. Heaven and Earth are aligned to support you in claiming your power, so take decisive action. Overcome your fear of hurting others, unsheathe the blade, and use it wisely. THE MEDICINE It's time to put down the sword and place it back in its scabbard. Do not offer your blade in service to toxic emotions! You will be faced with an even more disagreeable future with the people or situations you are attempting to banish. Put the blade to rest until your inner fire has mellowed. Then use your blade with impeccable intention to cut the energetic cords that are tying you to the drama at hand. Set yourself free! 2) THE ARROW (3) and THE EAGLE (16) THE ARROW THE ESSENCE Receiving this symbol reminds you that when you are in alignment with your heart and soul, you are on target and will soon be hitting your mark. Be true to your calling, release attachments, and free yourself from he bondage of unbridled ambition. Now is revealed to be a moment of contact in which your intention meets the material world. The Arrow also symbolizes the need to set your creativity free. THE INVITATION When the Arrow zings through the air, it is inviting you to pay attention and signifying that you are about to make your mark in some aspect of your life. It illuminates the moment of contact when you know that your desires and intentions have traveled on the wind and landed in the perfect place for your highest good. Trust that your job is to be relaxed yet focused, keeping your eye on the prize yet releasing your intention with full expectation that it will land as it is supposed to. Don't worry about the "how" or the exact form. This is not the time to interfere with the manner in which the arrow flies. It will make its mark, and you will have cause to celebrate! THE MEDICINE This is a time to admit that by continuing on the path you are on, you might be shooting yourself in the foot. Could it be that you have become so attached to winning this game that you have missed the true mark? What if your arrow was never meant to land where you wanted it? Now is the time to regroup and ask yourself if what you desire is really worth your energy. This is a sign that something better is waiting. Consider the wisdom in not getting what you want. Suffering in this case is a pathway to heal the parts of you that feel unworthy, the parts that worry there isn't enough. Make peace with those voices. What is truly yours will be waiting for you. _______ THE EAGLE THE ESSENCE Eagle comes from the east, the place of the rising sun, of new beginnings. She soars high in the sky, sees the smallest detail with clarity without losing track of the bigger picture, and nests in the high mountains. For Eagle, there are no obstacles, only opportunities. She calls you to ascend, to acquire perspective, so you can fly wing to wing with Great Spirit. THE INVITATION Have you become trapped in your daily routine and feel you do not know where to go and what to do next? Have you lost your sense of purpose? Eagle invites you to take a deep breath and spread your wings. When was the last time you opened them? Eagle reminds you that your spirit was born to soar to the heavens. As you contemplate choices, ask yourself: "Do I want to live in a chicken coop, sheltered from life, counting the regular feelings, or do I want to soar like an eagle?" If your answer is the latter, then you must accept Eagle's invitation and embrace the courage that will help you choose freedom. THE MEDICINE It is time to see through the eyes of Eagle. Let your vision of the whole and of its parts become laser-like, and set your priorities straight. What did you come to do in this life? Did you come to climb up the ladder of financial or social success? Did you come to become a better person, to heal your heart, and to realize your essential self? What is your divine mission here on Earth? No more excuses. Of course, you do not have enough time, enough money, or enough sleep... Yet the time is now to fly to your chosen purpose. If you postpone it, you are betraying yourself. Look through the eyes of Eagle and consider every obstacle and opportunity. Where you set your intention is where you'll end up. Free yourself and live your highest destiny. Fly! 3) THE RAINBOW (41) and THE SMOKY MIRROR (47)
THE RAINBOW THE ESSENCE The rainbow symbolizes the seven steps of a true spiritual path, which manifest as the colors of the seven chakras. In the Himalayas, the rainbow body is seen as the full realization of our essence. The rainbow also represents the bridge between the physical and spiritual worlds. At the end of our lives, we can journey across the rainbow bridge to the highest heavenly realms. When the rainbow appears, it is an affirmation that all is well and that you are in right relationship with Spirit. THE INVITATION The rainbow tells you that the end of the storm is near. Persevere, and remember that it is darkest just before the dawn. Do not give up hope; things are about to take a positive turn. Listen for the morning rooster that announces the coming of the dawn even while the night is still darkest. But do not claim victory yet or let your guard down fully. THE MEDICINE Don't get caught in pursuit of the illusion of the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Find the treasure now, in the moment, by coming into right relationship with those around you. All your gifts are at hand, so obvious you may have missed them. Be true with your intentions, and do not be led astray by daydreams. _______ THE SMOKY MIRROR THE ESSENCE The Smoky Mirror represents the aspects of what is implied yet cannot be immediately known in the world, the mystery of how things come together and how they fall apart without obvious causality. This symbol also represents the shadow of the human psyche, the parts of the self that one disowns. The Smoky Mirror can also represent a state of denial, or the inability or refusal to see the truth. THE INVITATION When the symbol of the Smoky Mirror appears, you're invited to see beyond your own self. Acknowledge that, past the limits of your current ability to perceive, there is a vast interconnected world where events are orchestrated in divine order but challenging to fully grasp. Now is the time to trust that no matter what the current conditions of your world reflect, in the Hidden Realms all aspects of the human journey are celebrated: the beauty and the darkness, the misery and the courage. No matter where you are on your journey, know that some things are meant to be a mystery, which you are meant to understand only through experience. Take heart, for the Smoky Mirror will ultimately show you beauty and wonder once the fog lifts the distortion you see now. THE MEDICINE Understanding the shadow of the human journey requires that you go deep into your story to discover the wound that prevents you from seeing the truth of your current situation. Your fears and expectations of disappointment and unworthiness may be clouding your capacity to see the potential in yourself and others. The Smoky Mirror may be showing you things you don't want as a result of your conditioning. These can become even more real, but only because you are making it so. The choice is yours. The world will hold you accountable or what you see and create. Can you see through the eyes of truth and faith instead?
