Create a Healthy Structure

Preserve Your Inner World

Your inner sanctity and stability are determined by beliefs, behaviors, biology and a myriad of internal and external factors. Your inner world is created in your mother’s womb and includes what you have brought form other lives, the temperaments and dispositions of your ancestors and other factors too numerous to list. This structure changes as you grow older, develop your own opinions and erect foundational pillars that become the cornerstones of your personality. This structure either holds you up or slowly breaks you down depending on how it is cared for and maintained.

This card asks you to explore your inner makeup to become aware of what no longer serves you and what needs strengthening. This process requires profound honesty. It asks you to examine the principles, morals and foundations you live by and ask what works and what could be improved.

You might feel compelled to ask whether any of your actions are compromising your integrity. Maybe you have remained in a comfortable place or circumstance because you don’t want to look deeper or take a leap of faith. It is time to shore up the cracks and stabilize your inner structure before something breaks.

Take the time to identify anything causing you pain, discomfort or guilt. You may be in a stagnant relationship that needs love, care and attention to shift into something extraordinary. You could be working a job you have outgrown or be clinging to a friendship that has run its course. You might be carrying an inner secret and be afraid to share how you feel. You can step onto a path of integrity and transform on the core level by taking full responsibility for your life, being honest and communicating. You might be surprised that by being true, you open the door for positive change for everyone around you.

If you were living by your highest ethics, how would you live and what would you do?

When you build a healthy inner structure, you can handle any difficulties that come your way. Examine the areas where your inner structure is shaky, so you can build a robust foundation that will keep you evolving at a healthy rate into the future.

Consider what you need to do to build a strong foundation. Take the necessary steps, knowing you are following inner guidance.

Healing Practice

To integrate the guidance of this card, you may wish to perform the following healing practice.

Healing Meditation

Do you have skeletons hidden in your closet? Are there unresolved hurts from past friendships or relationships? You have an opportunity to resolve these issues, to heal and move forward unencumbered by their presence.

Be honest with yourself about your inner structure and hat has to change. You may have unhealthy beliefs, be holding on to an ego wound or be overly prideful. These habits and behaviors harden you and resist sensitivity, consideration and open-heartedness-all of which are needed to confront inner darkness with care. Be willing to face your wounds and let go of troubling aspects. It is time to heal.

Close your eyes and breathe deeply for several minutes or until you reach a deep meditative state. Ask the universal wisdom for a healing guide to assist you. Use one of your choosing or ask for a benevolent angel or spirit guide to be with you during the process. Ask you guide to take you to a healing room. When you enter the room, sit down and ask for advice and assistance with your difficulties. Be open to receiving healing messages, either immediately or later, through signs that will be visible to you.

Remain in the healing room for as long as needed. When you’re finished, return to your body in the here and now and visualize bathing your skeletons in beautiful emerald rays of light. Observe your skeleton absorb the healing energy of the rays and become stronger and regenerated. Thank the beings that have helped you. When you are ready, come back to the present and open your eyes.
