Calm Within

Inner Peace

This image on this card speaks to the ongoing process of returning to our calm within. Your life is likely filled with many wondrous things: family, friends, lovers, job, study…Each serves to stimulate and bring greater joy and growth. Each is important in defining who you are at this point in your life. Each consumes a piece of your time and energy. Occasionally, you experience periods when all the many things that compose daily life accumulate and become more than you can handle. This creates frustration and anxiety and disrupts the flow of positive creative energy. Do you find yourself overstimulated by people and responsibilities?

Try this simple exercise. View this card, and close your eyes and hold it to your heart. Sit and breathe rhythmically, allowing your breath to flow in and out in a relaxed manner. Ask that everyday cares leave your mind for just long enough so that you may find the calm within that nurtures who you truly are. Ask your inner guidance to offer wisdom as to what is most important, and release what you can. When you are relaxed and centered, when you truly feel peace, gently reenter your day with this calm perspective.

Reversed

Chaotic energies are working around the subject of your inquiry. No progress can be made until you are able to calm down and observe the intuition from a fresh perspective. You may need additional protection to be able to handle this situation. Seek perspective and guidance from someone you trust.
