CONNECTING WITHIN: Gifts
Welcome to this month’s post on Connecting Within, exploring a card each month from my Self-Discovery Inspirational Cards Deck.
I have realised with all the changes in daily life that has occurred in recent months that I did not post last month! I admit to enjoying a focus on family and home while we remained at home together, whilst there has definitely been challenges (and exhaustion with schooling trying to keep up with the kids), overall it was a precious time to connect to my family and I enjoyed seeing aspects of my children that I hadn’t realised were there.
I guess in a way this brings me to the card we are exploring today – ‘Gifts’ – Allow your gifts to guide you in finding your true path.
Before getting into the card itself, just the title ‘Gifts’ brings to mind the way in which we can approach different aspects in life. Whilst my experience of the last few months varies with others and I am aware there are many people who have had a very difficult time experiencing hardships and loss, I have learned it is important for me to acknowledge the positive aspects of my life at any given time, and thus for me the recent period has brought the gift of ‘time’ with my family and in part a freeing of other obligations while we weren’t able to be so ‘busy’ with everything going on, it brought a period of ‘slowing down’ and ‘allowing’, a respite in a sense. It was a time to reflect on what truly is important to each of us and allow a process of letting go of the unimportant/unnecessary where possible.
So then moving into the message on this card ‘Allow your gifts to guide you in finding your true path’. Did this recent period allow you to slow down and reflect on what is important to you, on what drives you or inspires you? Did you use the time to take part in activities at home that you find joy? These are some of the things we can consider when working with this card.
I hope you are able to spend some time in reflection if you haven’t already, and take notice of what you are passionate of in life, considering ways in which you can keep this a part of your everyday life. Even if for now it is just to a small degree with the intention to build on it in the future.
So this for today is what comes up for the card ‘Gifts’, keeping in mind these cards are versatile and can be used in many ways, what comes up for us today as we listen to our inner voice when working with the card, may not be what comes up tomorrow! Something that continues to fascinate me and continue being excited about this beautiful card deck.
As always thank you for going on this journey of inner healing and growth. I send intentions for you each to be surrounded in joyous, supportive light and I look forward to sharing with you next month.
Speaking of sharing with you (and following our passions). Keep an eye out soon for a podcast I will be releasing soon to help you connect within for inner growth and healing via the different energy centers in your body!
Sharing love, light and smiles,
