Notice the Pattern

In much the same way that a song returns to its chorus, the object of your inquiry as been a recurring pattern in your life. Look back and identify its history and origins. When you locate the repetitive melodies in the orchestra of your life, you can rewrite the song and dance to a different tune.

Move beyond the surface layers of your life to uncover the belief systems, values, and paradigms that are creating the underlying patterning of your reality. With pure love and unconditional self-approval, be willing to examine the filaments and threads that are weaving the fabric of your experience. What is familiar about this situation? How far back can you trace it?

It may be that the situation you’re experiencing has roots in your personal history. It could go back even further to the history of your family, heritage, culture, or even your past lives.

We often feel frustrated when we identify the reappearance of a challenging pattern because we imagine we’ve been running around in circles. But this is never the case. What looks like a circle is a spiral dance, bringing your even closer to the center of your soul. Each time a similar lesson appears, you have the opportunity to learn it in a new and more profound way until you master and ultimately integrate it. You will treasure every twirl of the spiral dance, as you come to see all the power and wisdom you’ve gained along the way.

Receiving this card is auspicious because it means it is time to acknowledge this old pattern so you can transform it, transcend it, and set yourself free.

Assess and affirm your values. Clean up outmoded belief systems. Get rid of faulty foundations and send strong, healthy roots deep into the fertile soil of cosmic co-creation.

To embody the wisdom of this card, take your time and select two songs – one that represents the old, challenging pattern you’re ready to let go of and one that represents the new energy you’d like to call in. First, dance to the song representing the old pattern. Feel how ready you are to let go of this energy and connect deeply with how far back it goes. Then, as you dance to the new song, feel yourself shifting, dispersing, and releasing the old pattern. Establish the beautiful new feelings and conditions you are now choosing to experience.

Your new awareness will activate your freedom. Clarify what you don’t want, choose what you do want, and be unswerving in your determination to organize your life around that choice.
