General Reading September 24-30: Patchwork Quilt

Consistency.

Consistency is the difference between success and failure, at this point. You caught the vision, started moving pieces into place, and hunkered down for the long haul. This is the stage where you have seen enough hardship now to wonder if you made the right choice.

Nine of Earth shows the goal as a glorious, multicolored quilt. There are pieces you need to change out, for sure, but let’s go back to your core intentions. Did you want something that would make the world a better place? Yes. Do you still want that? Yes. Do you deserve good things and overall success for those intentions? Yes. Are there underlying motives, habits, or perspectives you started with that aren’t working for you, now that it comes down to it? Yes.

Change what needs changing, and stay the course. Let go of your pride, your hurt, your need to be right in order to be safe. Let go of people and places and things that aren’t adding to your core intention. If admitting you were wrong becomes a choice between aligning with your highest good and aligning with what you thought you were supposed to be, choose your highest good every time. It’s okay to say, “I was wrong in this, but I know I’m right to be here, doing what I came to do.”

Show up, even when things look unfavorable. Stay consistent, even as you change your approach and shed the things you thought were fundamental to your vision.

You knew going into this that there were things you were doing incorrectly. You knew that you hadn’t succeeded yet because of them. And still, you felt the push to move forward. So you leaped. And it was absolutely the right choice to do so.

You were right.

The roadblocks you’re experiencing are proof that you’re on the right track. You’re finally uncovering the flaws that invisibly held you back every other time you tried. It was frustrating before because you couldn’t even see what the problem was. But now you do. Revealing the flaws is part of the process. You are doing exactly what you need to in order to succeed.

It’s okay if you don’t have the solution yet. Much like hunting down and unpicking bad stitches, uncovering this problem took a lot of work. Rest, adjust your perspective. Process out your feelings and thoughts so you are once again aligned with your own light. When you feel rested and inspired again, that is when you can solve, but don’t think you are doing nothing before that key moment when everything shifts. You’ve been putting in the work behind the scenes this whole time.

The fact is, you are the Magician. You are the channel through which creation, change, and beauty happen. You are this courageous, strong, resilient creature of light and love and passion. And we need you. All of you. Every single person in this glorious network of Magicians, creating a wonderful place for all of us to exist in love.

It feels lonely sometimes. You have wondered if you’re alone in the Universe. Rest assured, you’re not. You are working on your own beautiful little patch of Universe, bringing light to its dark void in a way only you can. If you could see how each patch connects with every other patch, you would understand the why. Imagine it, for a moment. Imagine the moment your light connects with the light of others around you. Imagine how the whole quilt looks when it finally comes together.

It’s beautiful beyond words.

If you find yourself feeling impatient, remember this: you are worth the time it takes to get to the success at the end. You are worth the help you need.

Often, you already have the tools at your fingertips but need to figure out how to use them. If the Universe is telling you to figure it out yourself, then know that you are creating something new. You don’t need an expert: you are the expert. When you really need a teacher, one will show up.

But don’t forget that you’re a teacher, too. We are beyond needing to pledge loyalty to a teacher in order to hear and consider what they have to say. Each of us is self-sovereign. That’s why we were each entrusted with our own patch in the quilt, our own stretch of darkness in which to shine.

You are creating something amazing. Stay consistent.

General Reading September 17-23: The Power of Desire

This week is a deeper, more peaceful layer of letting go of what you have lost and finding joy in embracing and following what was always meant for you. You are really starting to believe that what is truly yours cannot miss you. It will keep calling until you receive it, because your heart yearns for it, even when you have lost faith and given up.

When are you going to believe how magnetic your desires truly are?

8 of Earth feels like the beginning of a new chapter. When you see the next phase of your life unfolding, it is easier to let go of the old one. The story of your life as it was in the previous chapter becomes uninteresting, even irrelevant. Loss? Bitterness? You don’t know her, because you are dancing in the light of Celebration.

Be sure to take time alone to reconnect with your Highest Self this week, as old things leave and new things enter. Familiarity is subjective. On the one hand, the old feels familiar to your nervous system. On the other hand, the new feels so much more familiar to your soul. Have you ever entered an entirely new place and felt like you have come home? That’s the vibe of this new chapter.

Remember to end old Karmic ties with gratitude and forgiveness. To forgive is to free yourself from something that otherwise would gain strength by your resistance to it. Dark needs Light as a contrast, but Energy simply is. The Difficult is only defined as arduous by something Easy, but the Great Work stretches on endlessly.

You were never truly defined by the hardships that made you choose how you would respond. Yes, hardship forced you to respond, but your soul was where you unlocked the choices you considered. Without that spark of genius within you, the solution wouldn’t even have crossed your mind. And yet, the opportunity to choose gave you growth and galvanized your desires and intentions.

Because we exist outside of this 3D timeline, we exist simultaneously at every point in our linear growth progression. Time is an illusion, a way of making sense of all that we are and all that we have done and will ever do. But remember that the best version of you exists in your darkest hour, and is accessible, should you wish to connect with it. Anything you truly desire is possible.

Do you wish to succeed? You are a success in progress, then.

Do you wish to obtain some item? You are in the process of doing so, even if that process unfolds in an unexpected or indirect way.

Every choice you make is the best choice for your deepest, strongest desires, at any given point. What do you truly want? How do you truly need to get to it?

You are never going to be a failure if you desire success. And if you desire failure, then you will be succeeding in it. Either way, you succeed. So what do you want, and more importantly, why do you want all the things you want, especially the conflicting desires? Could it be you need an experience to know more so that you can decide between two (or more) options?

The duality of your being and your experience is such that you, in all your complicated imperfections and idiosyncrasies, are allowed to choose and experience so, so many things. When you are done being “God dreaming they are not God,” to reference Alan Watts, then all the complications revert to simplicity, and the experience resolves.

If you take nothing else from this reading, let it be an invitation to sit with yourself this week and decide what you really want. If you have any doubts when choosing, you will be given contrast to figure them out. This is a gift, not a curse, so use it wisely, and remember to tread lightly. Don’t take life so seriously. There is no way for you to fail in what you desire.

Mantra: “I am making the choices that are right for me. If it happened this way, that’s exactly how it needed to happen, and I’m finding out why.”

And if you need help, finding it is not against the rules. Everyone needs help sometimes. Everyone has the opportunity to give help, too, if they wish. It’s going to be okay, and we are all in this together. Everything is turning out right for you.

General Reading September 10-16: Enjoy the Ride

This week is another facet of exploring personal power. There are some things you can control. And then there are things you simply cannot. You need to choose whether you believe everything is conspiring for or against you, and run with it. The Universe runs in a very different way from the one we were taught in school. Things happen without our conscious knowledge all the time. We align with certain things and fall out of alignment with others. Each thing we align with gives us a new perspective on the Universe. It’s like playing parts in a theater, and seeing through different characters’ eyes.

You need to remember who you are, and that you are bigger than this tiny human body you’re in. You also need to remember that if you work with your innate self, instead of fighting against it, you will be much more effective in getting what you want. The time for big changes and breakthroughs is now, but the finer timing and nature of these changes depends on how easily you flow with them. Don’t be afraid of your good coming to you. Look for the ways in which you stand to benefit in all circumstances. Look for the simplified path if the complicated stuff exhausts you.

You can’t hold onto the cliff face under the waterfall and not expect to get battered. Ride the white water with loose muscles, and relax into it. This can be the most fun ride of your existence. The difference between excitement and terror is hope. If you expect everything to turn out right, the sudden drop off the edge is exhilarating. If you expect death, the sudden drop is seen as a precursor to pain and loss. Keep coming back to hope.

Spoiler alert: your life is continuing to get really good for you, and yes, it will all turn out right for you. Everything is going according to divine plan. You are doing well, and the Universe is working tirelessly behind the scenes to coordinate this ride for you. Your job is simply to let loose and enjoy the ride.

General Reading September 3-9: Trust Yourself

Welcome to Meteorological Autumn! With fruit ripening and the weather turning cooler, this is a great time to reflect on what you have accomplished during the last three seasons.

You have manifested beautiful opportunities for yourself. With faith, courage, determination, and grit, you decided that what you truly wanted in life was important enough to pursue. You dreamed and worked and left things behind. Now you get to take more steps to make your desires fully happen.

The allegory of the garden is showing up this week. With the attainment of the old (9 of Earth/Pentacles), a new dream began. You dreamed of a beautiful garden full of new, fulfilling options. Choices were called in. Seeds were sown. You had an idea of what you were planting, but until it sprouts you can never truly know what you’re growing.

The Lovers is traditionally a card signifying choosing between two appealing options, binding yourself to one, and creating harmony between yourself and the one you chose. Both options will lead to a long-term commitment and change your path forever. This will change you innately, as you grow together with your chosen path, people, etc. This is big stuff.

The Heirophant card invites you to trust and follow your inner guidance system. Even if you don’t know why you want something or what exactly you need in every aspect, when you set the intention to have everything work out to your highest good, your gut tells you to choose the options that will make that happen.

If you make a choice that gives you something undesirable, it is showing you contrast so that you can change course. It’s okay to explore. It’s okay to move slowly. You don’t have to be married to every choice you make; give it a few dates to make up your mind.

Sometimes a leap of faith is required before you see or know something. When you step into the unknown, you will see many new things. Choose the ones that seem best to you.

A helpful mantra for this moment: I always make the best choices for me.

In the end, staying still is the only option that will truly harm you. Make your choices, honor your mistakes as learning opportunities, and choose to love and accept yourself regardless.

You’ve got this. Keep going. The journey is just as fulfilling and important as the destination.
