Life Lessons With Leo

Day 10 of #theinnerselfchallenge2018 and our focus is the evening cycle. My evening cycle number is 1, which indicates that I will blossom forth in the world of letters. I drew the Page of Swords. When answering the question, I look back on all the cycles and how I have sort of progressed from a young sproutlet to where the evening cycle and Page of Swords forecast me. From where I stand now, it will be well worth all the work and energy to be the wise witch that is down the road. The Page of Swords and my evening cycle marry to create a period of an old wise lady or Mama Odie (for those who’ve seen Princess and the Frog). My future will be one of guidance and wisdom. #eightcoinstattootarot #mamaodie #wisdom #eureka #enjoythejourney

Day 9 of #theinnerselfchallenge2018 and today we focus on the noon of our life cycle. For my tarot, I drew the Temperance card. So, to answers today’s question, I feel the Temperance card will bring a lot of a call to action but also balance to this life cycle. There won’t be much room to just twiddle my thumbs per se, the situation could be dangerous if left unwatched. If I tune in and focus all my energy in the right place, things will come out on top. With the right guidance, the path will be clear. #eightcoinstattootarot #temperance #lifecycles #balance #guidance #calltoaction

Day 8 of #theinnerselfchallenge2018 and this was a lot to take in a process today so I hope I got it all correct. My card for the spread was the 4 of cups. My morning life cycle being 1. When answering the question, what does the tarot say about my morning life cycle and it’s corresponding key, well that loner bit of my self that I experienced when I was younger definitely was feeling sorry for herself but books became my savior. But as I got to my 20s I stopped sulking a stepped into my spiritual walk and was so glad I did. I teamed up with the Universe instead of letting things keep passing me by. It became a beautiful relationship. #personalgrowth #eightcoinstattootarot #lonertohealer #findyoirpassion #authoryourlife

Day 7 of #theinnerselfchallenge2018 and we are learning about our (life) Path number and Goal number. For the spread I have drawn the Page of Wands which based on my Path number,4, there can be some good endeavors ahead to run with. This seem pretty level, which is nice. It all gels well with my goal number too, 3. There’s a space for creativity and self- expression. Feels pretty good to me.

Day 6 of #theinnerselfchallenge2018 and our focus is the Total Self. For this I have drawn the 5 of Pentacles. At first, I felt a moment of painful stillness when I looked at the card and connected it with what we are learning for the day. To answer the question, it is not really a recent disharmony, it’s something that has been there subtly beneath the surface most of my life. With my persona and inner self being about leadership and wielding this message of light... to be honest, I have fought both. I’ve preferred to help but to do it quietly from the back. This inner conflict that comes from fighting the born leader within is one that leaves me feeling helpless at times but one I hope to overcome. #eightcoinstattootarot #overcome #innerstrength #riseup

Day 5 of #theinnerselfchallenge2018 and I’m getting to know myself more and more. — For my expression key I got No. 1, which is originality, leadership, and independence. — The card I drew in the spread was the Nine of Pentacles. — Regarding the questions, the Nine of Pentacles tells me that my expression key is somewhat highlighted even more. The Nine of Pentacles is the “independent woman” and since my number is 1, with one area of focus being independence, the energy flows well together. — I believe I still have work to do with being in balance with my key’s vibration at this point in my life. I’m at a point in my life where I am finding myself again, finding my originality again. Most days I enjoy this, somedays I long for the girl who use to be here, strong, an unshakable leader who’s Light was a force to be dealt with. — My birth and expression key are in great harmony, they are like the ebb and flow of the tides, working off the moon and her energy. Gaining strength and enlightenment from the sun when necessary. This is the balance we all need in life. #eightcoinstattootarot #sunandmoon #lightbringer #yinyang #healer #witch #spiritualjourney

Day 4 of #theinnerselfchallenge2018 and we are doing birth numbers. My birth number is 11, Messenger of Light. Most of my life has been a journey of finding the fractures of messages from the Light or sharing those messages with others. I drew the Sun card for the spread. So to answer the questions, I have had many dark nights of the soul in my life but the sun has always shone through, preparing me with his energy. Enlightening me with a message of encouragement and wisdom, and to never give up. #eightcoinstattootarot #tarot #nevergiveup #thesun

Day No. 3 of #theinnerselfchallenge2018. The card is The Chariot. My inner self Soul Urge is 11, representing Messenger of Light. Since this key is our conscious egoic drive the Chariot for me further drives home my desires to blaze through this lifetime the delivery of spirituality on all fronts. The Chariot is here as a trail blazer and I am one to do that with Light. #thechariot #eightcoinstattootarot #tarotchallenge #tarot #trailblazor

Building up layers and shedding them Tonight I asked Spirit when dealing with life, we find ourself building up layers. Whether it be a job, friends, society, or just life in general just becoming too much, we build these defensive layers and if not taken care of overtime become impenetrable. How do we deal with this, how do we come to a point of shedding them and showing our beautiful Light body again? Using the #hedgewitchbotanicaloracle I was given the Adventure card (Samphire) and the Invigorate card (Juniper). I had to sit with both for a moment and see how these made sense. But that’s how this works. We need to let this marinate so it sticks right? The Adventure card was speaking to the built up layers, as we traverse out on our adventures in life and all the bumps in the road. Our ups and our downs. Our triumphs and our defeats. All these things are characteristics of an adventure and of the layers we may build around us as we grow through life. Next we have the Invigorate card. It reminds us that we can be revitalized and renewed. We can find the time to shed some of the weight. With clarity of mind and introspection, maybe one can see that the load was not necessary to carry at all. In the end, self-care and self-love are key to staying healthy on our journey in this life and keeping the muck of life at bay. As always, I love you amazing people and have a star filled evening, Leo💜 #tarot #lifelessonswithleo #lifelessons #spiritualgrowth #tarotdaily #selfcare #selflove

Here so are with yet another Monday. I asked Spirit today what do we need to know for tomorrow and I drew this, Initiation... the action of beginning something. Something sacred. So welcome to the sacred circle of life my dear friends. We have all chosen to be here. We have initiated this sacred circle of magik and we cultivate within it in many different ways each and every day. I’m honored to be here with each one of you and as you begin your week remember that your magik is needed. It is holy. It is special. So don’t dim your light. If fact make it brighter. Share it. Teach it to another so they can be initiated into the circle as well and we can expand this love until there is no place untouched by our love and our magik. Be light. Be everything this circle represents. I love you, Leo 💜 #connectedandfreeoracle #lifelessonswithleo #lifelessons #magik #initiation #circle #light #love #sacredmagick #soulwork #spiritualwork #tarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotdaily

Tonight we draw from the #workyourlightoracle deck, and ask three questions, what is the present, what is beneath and what is to come? For what’s present, I drew the leap card with it saying ‘ you go first the universe will catch you.’ What the universe is say is we need to have enormous faith right now, in ourself and in the world. So take a gigantic step forward. Jump and see what miracles await you. You won’t be disappointed. Next we have what is beneath. For this I drew Star Mother. The card says ‘how can you mother yourself?’ At the foundation of it all, we must tend to our need like a loving mother would. We must believe in ourself like a mother would. Ever giving, every trusting that we can do anything. Ever knowing that our child is capable and can touch the stars. So give yourself that mother’s touch today and always. And last, what is to come, the Sisterhood of the Rose card, saying ‘Beauty and devotion. Priestess. Mystic. Teacher’. This card is the summation of the three. Should we take that big leap and love ourself like the Star Mother we have the greatest potential to be on of the Sisterhood of the Rose. Whether that be a mystic, teacher, priestess. All beautiful in their devotion. So take your leap and give yourself the devote mother love and join me in the sisterhood. I love you and will see you soon. #workyourlightoracle #mystic #faith #teacher #sisterhood #mystic #priestess #starmother #spaceships #divinehood #spaceships #universe #divinelight #lifelessons #spiritualawakening #witchism #soulwork

Happy full moon loves... tonight we ask how do we find peace in the midst of the storm. From the #universalminddeck i drew the healing/chakras card. I find this profound and a message that does not need my embellishment of words. When we are aligned standing as one with the all that is, peace is the air we breath. The storm passing over is simply a result of the negation of shadow work coming forward for our love through alignment. By love, there is no fear of the storm. We stand arms open and embrace the bellows of wind, rain full of tears and with a open heart and smile on our face say ‘my love - I’m sorry I neglected your pain, let me heal you with this love.’ We look as healers at the storm and see an opportunity to quiet the pain and quiet the unrest. We as healers use magik to align the chakras of others storms through life unconscious of why they hurt. It is a gift to be the eye of the storm. The quiet peace. #summerstorm #fullmoon #chakra #unity #love #eyeofthestorm #healing #breakthrough #lifelessons #peace #painasateacher

Where can you take back your power today? Time’s up for playing small. For worrying what ‘they’ will think. Time’s up from not taking the time you need to heal yourself. Time is up for not putting your heart first. Time’s up for being a people pleaser. Time’s up for not believing in your magik. Time is up for excuses and the many faces she wears. Time is up for not being the star you were born to be, lighting the darkness in the world and in yourself. The time is up for being afraid because honey on the other side of that fear is your freedom. Don’t hold yourself hostage anymore. We can get through it. It may be unconventional, it may make others uncomfortable, but a spiritual awakening is rarely pretty. It’s like a star exploding in the sky. It can be dangerous, hard to watch but in the end, new worlds are born. New parts of you will break free and the gravity of your soul will collect it all. Things will fall back into place. Be brave. Be vulnerable. Be true to where you are so you can get to where you want to be. And rise. I love you. #spiritualawakening #healing #darknightofthesoul #lifelessons #truthinthedarkness #theabyss #selflove

Have courage my heart for we are going to need it. Tonight I asked, what I needed to know to move forward out of the stuck energy that has settled around me as of late. And here comes charging in my knight in shining armor... except this person is me. When the Knight of Wands appears, it’s time to take control of the reins of life and charge towards your passion, your heart work, the essence of what calls you in this life. Be not afraid or bogged down by what appears as being stuck energy, this is just a resting moment before the dash forward. But move with caution, Spirit is saying, be tactical in your development, draw up a plan and don’t be impulsive or else you will end up missing the mark. So I’m ready again to push forward out of the muck and charge towards my destiny. Rest is okay but wallowing is not an option. Always forward, always right on time. #motivation #knightofwands #eightcoinstattootarot #lifelessons #restbutdontquit #tarot #mondaymotivation #believeinyourself #selfconfidence #spiritualgrowth

I am using this beautiful summer solstice spread for us tonight. The first card is what growing in our life. I pulled the five of wands. This card talks about strife, frustration and conflict and even reduced creative efforts. We may see strife all around in life and there may be growing challenges we need to face but if we take into the energy of the sun, we pull into the solar plexus energy we can find ourself more than capable to deal with things coming in our path. The second card is blooming and for that we have the prince of swords. He’s calling on us to enjoy the blossoming of our creative and intuitive thinking. There are answers to the conflict we see with the five of wands and we are more than capable to meet the challenge. By being forward thinkers we can bloom into the space we deserve and then branch out to something bigger. The last card is the queen of pentacles and she calls on us to not let important die off in our life. We need to pay special attention to our physical and spiritual health and how things around us can slowly kill our light. She is there to be called on for protection so that we can be fertile in all areas of life and gain the blessings we so deserve. Our special message comes from the chariot. There is hope because change brings endless possibilities of the potential for our very best self. We may be tired of climbing this mountain but we need to. Not just for ourself but for others too. We shall overcome. So put your heart into action and make your dreams come true. The choice is up to you to be the true author of your dreams. Don’t let doubt, fear, anxiety, worry, or any of the like stop you. You can do it. And I believe in you. I hope everyone has had a beautiful and sunny day.
