Dance

Intuitive Movement

Let the heat of the movement,

burn all that is stagnant.

Within my body, spirit, and mind,

I begin again now, fresh as a dime.

The mystical journey is long and true,

I’ll be courageous and wander through.

Wanderer’s Wisdom

Let dance and spontaneous movement become the conduit of your soul’s expression. This body of yours is starving for release through movement, but not just any movement. This card is talking about the kind of movement that expresses tangible emotions and energies that have been pent up underneath your skin. You have held on to some things that are not you or do not serve your highest good. No judgment, no expectations, find a song and move. Let your mind drift out of the way and find ecstatic dance or movement. Pound your fists on the floor like a heathen, sensually turn in a slow fashion or bend your knees and stomp, whatever calls to you, do that. Turn this into your me-time, a ritual devoted to dancing with every part of your body. You will feel so much better after a significant release of energy. The things that aren’t of your beautiful human existence will fall away, and all that will be left is you.

Take Action

Your energy has become stagnant, relight the flow of energy in your body with dance. You need to let go of a tremendous amount of energy that is not yours, do this through noise and movement. It may be time to find a physical exercise that is perfect for you.

Dance Revealed

Dance can be seen as a primal form of expression or a way to engage physically with others. It can be a form of exercise and an art form. From the wanderer’s perspective, dance is a tool to engage with and manipulate energy. When we dance in this manner, much like the Mevlevis within Sufism, we are acting as a conduit for the pure energy/life to manifest itself.
