Ashram Monday’s : 108

No.108

Firstly I wanted to apologise for the late post today.. I've managed to hurt my back big time and it's been an interesting journey navigating round crawling, walking, sitting and standing.. none of which I can do for too long at any given time. Awks to sleep with haha.. it will pass.

But I've not managed to get Ashram going today so it's taken me a few go's.. the message, at least for me, was clear. It was what can we change within ourselves in order to move forward in the way we dream and hope for.

It is important to u deter and that if someone is doing you wrong that this will not apply to you. This is about a change in perspective, in ourselves that will help US approach our futures with more mindfulness and balance from a place of disclosure and self love.

With that said our cards of the day are 'Destruction' and 'Mask'.. the green from destruction relates to the heart chakra, the white to our top most chakra of universal consciousness.. combined it feels like emotional intelligence.. The pink from the Mask is mostly related to healing (not a chakra in particular).

I will be looking at both piles in relation to these two cards as something that needs to change and be brought to the surface, all singing and dancing, confronting our own innermost demonds and unblocking us from a situation we find ourselves in currently.

A little about the two alternate decks of Rider Waite.. the Before tarot will be used to relate to where you are now and inform me at what is happening now.. the After will being in what needs to change in order to have a healthy happy future or outlook at different situations in your life.

Whichever pile calls to you the most..

Let us begin..

If you were drawn to pile 1.. you may feel in self sabotage mode, glass is half full or perhaps where you've gotten to isn't where you've expected to be. I feel impostor issues but so certainly feel a melancholy that comes with wishing for your dreams not to find when you reach there that it's not worked out or quite as you'd wish them to be. This can also relate to a person you thought you connected to well or a relationship that started off well but isn't as fulfilling.

Here destruction is perhaps the pieces of what's been going on with you not working out quite well but perhaps it was never right and the mask has now fallen, you are able to see things for what they truly are with regards to someone else.

If this is something with yourself.. looking at yourself in a critical way.. make sure that what you see and how you feel about yourself are from a positive perspective and not entirely based on a negatively angled way you see yourself.

It is time to speak to friends in order to ascertain a non-judgemental opinion on this person or for you to voice the feelings you have been feeling of yourself. Remove the mask and be vulnerable with someone you fully trust to help you overcome your current feelings & potential depression.

Putting down all your burdens and the one you hold onto will help be halved by sharing and communicating in a truthful manner with your friend(s). That is the advice of the cards.

You start with a 10 of cups in the rain where this card is normally happy family and the ultimate perfect card to receive.. feels unexpected event but cups are full of emotions.. and your reading ends with another 10.. the 10 of wands where in this deck all burdens have been dropped but one.. and in reverse it is you dropping your burdens all together. It all says that you feel as strongly and equally as the outcome and solution you find for this.. do not feel on your own, reach out!

There are also more than 1 person in every card except for the one at the end.. which is reversed.. you are not meant to be on your own. Help is coming and being sent by your guides and angels/the Universe. You will not have to deal with this on your own!

Also the page of swords is an overthinker.. someone who will normally look and watch from afar whilst thinking thinking and overthinking every possible avenue, choice, outcome in life.. but in this card there are people on their way to help.. do not lock them out and make sure you reach for that helping hand.

Also you may be dealing with an air, fire or water sign person.

Love and Light☀️

If you have chosen pile2, you have been standing your ground or have been praying or asking for help for you to be given strength to carry on and for things to finally change for you in your life.

Whatever is happening it is something you have been struggling with for a while now. You may have been waiting for 7 months or 7 years.. the fact is it has been a difficult journey this wait and the Universe, with the wheel of fortune in reverse, has deemed it is not time yet.. but it is coming.

Perhaps you have weathered some very tough times.. tough relationship.. tough job.. and it has really caused self-doubt when you have been waiting for improvements. Destruction is here to say that things are about to change completely and a new way of being is about to surface!..

Just as the mask falls.. the truth always finds its way out from beyond. The truth comes out in the turbulence you've gone through.. if you haven't found your solution yet then hang in there, you will!

You may be dealing with an earth or fire sign individual.. someone unbalanced although someone you would normally rely on to be stable but at the moment they are nowhere to be found and have seemingly disappeared in your life.

Whether it is someone you are dealing with or you feel unbalanced and ungrounded at the moment, perhaps quite emotional, you are advised that you will receive a helping hand in the future, perhaps someone to build a project at work with or for you to readdress the imbalance in your emotions and re ground yourself or maybe it's a good friend or family member that will help show you the way forward.

What you have waited for.. the good times, the right person.. they are on their way.

It is time for you to focus on your well being after so much has happened.. make sure you take time out, do a grounding meditation and see what else you can do for your well being.. walk in nature, hot salt bath..

Both the Queen of Pentacles and the Wheel of Fortine are reversed which tells me that whoever that is, you or someone else, once they/you are grounded and settled that things will finally progress. Perhaps this person has been overworked and focus on making money or a job. Within a month things will change.

The two of wands outcome card in this deck has two people.. holding the world ahead. Planning the future, planning change and passion together. Wands is always a passionate card but also relates to creativity. So there may be the birth of a nee creative venture coming up that will require partnership to work.

For now, creating well being, patience and perseverance will help you achieve your goal for the future.

Keep at it!.. the Universe has got your back and will always be with you every step of the way as it always has been.. and watch things change before the end of March!

Love and Light☀️
