Ashram Monday’

Affirmators deck

No.40

Happy Monday!.. and what better way to start your day than with caffeine and a little positivity your way.

Todays positivity has much to do with your mindset and to be willing to change it. This one, we all have carried at one point or other in our lives, varying degrees of it to each other.. some we carry still and it might not be the right time to address it.

If you find yourself reading today’s Ashram Monday’s.. this message may be saying it’s time for you to release and embrace. Not together.. but in that order.

Todays Ashram Monday’s has had to be introduced to you by my kitten Obi, who decided it was muy comfortable to lie on a rock hard box as a pillow.. never mind the entire bed everywhere.

Our card today has a camel carrying what feels like basic necessities on its back. Behind them, they leave money and material possessions behind represented by a money bag and chest.. but likewise what is left behind is baggage, worry, stress, old problems and old issues with those that served you less good than a hot meal.

I feel like i’ve done this several times in my life but forgiveness was something that needed cultivating when my disappointment of others had only to do with my expectations on them. So release friends who have done/do you harm, release relationships who have hurt/hurt you, release family issues you have/are undergoing. Life is way too short to carry that burden with you and before you know it, those people have grown, changed and even returned to make peace.

This card reminds you that you are as free as you allow yourself to be. Any restraints in your life and situations you feel stuck in, stressed in.. now is the time to take a long hard look at how you are keeping yourself there.

You cannot control what others do and worrying about something that hasn’t happened is only harming yourself. Just surrender to the experience, know that’s no matter what you aren’t on your own as the universe (insert whatever makes sense here for you) always has your back.

I discovered that my greatest source of perseverance and peace came from within me.. just being still and quiet allowed myself to truly listen to what I wanted to do, how to address situations and mostly how to surrender to what I could not control with calm and peace in my heart. Not dissimilar to todays reading photos!.. go with the flow!

The card is right.. a grudge really isn’t a great look. It implies that you harbour ill feelings towards someone else, carry it with you for someone’s past misdeed and that is quite a poison right there. I’m not perfect and when badly hurt I’ve found it impossible to smooth social situations with a smile & pleasantness. I’m afraid I’m a Sagittarius and we rarely hide how we feel or what we think. I may say nothing but unfortunately my face says it all.. not my easiest trait to handle for those around me.

Despite this rather honest but brutal approach to life.. at the end of the day I was ultimately living awkward moments & stressful meets. Why! Manoeuvre towards happiness.

By doing that you are in good shape to attract good things into your life, lead your feet into more positive strides and find yourself in a happy and carefree situation in life.

Have ‘they’ changed? Possibly. But who cares.. because they ultimately have.. for you!

Just remember that in all this you are a magnificent soul, unique in every way and that you deserve so much happiness! Life is a set of years and part of those years will be laden with illness, back pain, joint aches. Don’t squander right now for the past.. move ahead lighter, brighter & with a spring in your step.

Number 40, adds down to number 4.. this weeks Ashram Monday’s is all about building happiness at home, harmony and acceptance. Sounds about right.

Love and Light☀️
