After going through 2010, the Year of the Tiger, this year offers a much needed reprieve. Time to slip into a nice cozy spot and lick our wounds from all the battles we had to deal with. I don't know about you, but I could certainly deal with a front row seat at the latest, greatest broadway production. With champagne in hand and flowing, let's see what Mr. Rabbit has in store. Good taste and refinement will shine on everything and people will acknowledge that persuasion is better than force. A congenial time in which diplomacy, international relations and politics will be given a front seat again. We will act with discretion and make reasonable concessions without too much difficulty. It reminds me of Mad Men...good 'ol 60's diplomacy.
On the other hand, it's also a time to be wary of any overindulgence. Rabbit's influence tends to spoil those who like too much comfort and thus impair their effectiveness and sense of duty.
Law and order will be lax; rules and regulations will not be rigidly enforced. No one seems very inclined to bother with these unpleasant realities. They will be too busy enjoying themselves, entertaining others or simply taking it easy. The scene is quiet and calm, even deteriorating to the point of somnolence. We will all have a tendency to put off disagreeable tasks as long as possible. Remember, procrastination is not your friend.
Money can be made without too much labor. Our life style will be languid and leisurely, as we allow ourselves the luxuries we have always craved for. A temperate year with unhurried pace. For once, it may seem possible for us to be carefree and happy without too many annoyances.
Never underestimate rabbit, though. He is considered by some, a trickster. Watch for surprises, especially early summer.
All Blessings Be. )O(
I decided to ask our animal comrades for a message for my readers for 2011. I feel like we all need a boost of energy, and certainly some of us could use a little kick to get us on our way. Considering the fact that the coming year vibrates to the number 4, meaning solid foundation, it is no surprise that the reading became one of independence and confidence.
Well, Cardinal came and his message is pretty straightforward. He seems to be telling us, "Wake up!". With his incessant chirping, he brings a message of personal power. Stop shrinking from your destiny. Stop pretending that you are less than.
Cardinal Medicine renews vitality in life and returns joy, brilliance and balance to the mind, body and spirit. He awakens spiritual transformations, intellectual insights and heightens intuitions and perceptions. Cardinal aids in manifesting dreams and ideas by focussing intentions where it's needed. He adds color and balance to life and demonstrates that everything you do is important. He aids in understanding and helping you find your own song in life.
Are you doing what needs to be done or should be done? If you are unsure of your path, you can ask Cardinal to fly with you. Be assured, he will help you focus, gain clarity, formulate a plan, become self-assured, and step out into the world with the knowledge that you are a powerful and capable person.
All Blessings Be. )O(
The new year is coming up in a few days, so I thought I'd prognosticate on what's in store for all of us.
The year 2011 corresponds to the number 4 in numerology. It represents a foundation of sorts, of building, a cornerstone. But, on the flip side, it's also the number representing a stubborn, bossy type of character. I found this quite remarkable, since the 4th card in the tarot deck is the Emperor. This is the overall ambience for 2011.
As I meditated on this, I began to receive continuing messages. The first that comes to mind is a definite leap in medical discoveries. I see alot of progress happening on the experimental front. What concerns me about these great findings is the further corruption of earth. On this level, we need to be very aware of being too rigid or inflexible.
The Emperor very often is representative of the superego, which relates to Zeus from Greek mythology. The positive aspect that we can glean from his mythos is that of a rebellious nature. Not quite being able to wrap my head around the whole meaning of this revelation, I asked for clarification from the animal spirits. The spirit that came to me was the Blue Jay. You can always rely on the animal kingdom to simplify any misconceptions. Blue Jay encourages us to be sassy. If there's something you've been wanting, ask for it. If there's an issue that needs confrontation, don't sweep it under the rug or Blue Jay will drag it back out into the open. One word of caution, though—Blue Jays will eat the young of other birds—so be direct, but not destructive.
Clearly, the message here is to balance skill, leadership, humility and compassion. I believe the word of caution is to be applied to the illusion of pride. Our children, the youth of our world, will be teaching us alot of lessons this coming year. Look to them as beacons of hope.
All Blessings Be and a very happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. )O(
