A
man struggles with a load of bows up a steep path to an encampment of
warriors. He has a delivery to make to them, and part of me wonders why
they can't meet him halfway and help him out. There are times when I
labor under the idea that I'm the one doing all the work. But as
I look at this card, it reminds me this is not the case; the bows are
unfinished. The warriors still must be string them and make arrows -
this fellow has only cut and carved the staves to be used. There is a
sense of responsibility here in doing something for the greater good.
Everyone uses the gifts they have to do their part - I'm not alone. And
if I feel overwhelmed with my portion, asking for help will surely be
all I need to do to receive it.
From the Shaman's Oracle comes the "Journeyer:"
From the Shaman's Oracle comes the "Journeyer:"
The
Journeyer is the connection I have between the physical and the
spiritual world. It is what helps me find solutions, inspiration and
guidance. But it doesn't sit on my shoulder and give a running
commentary like some GPS device. If I'm busy making plans and
strategies for how I want things to work out, I won't even hear it. I
must become centered and open to its assistance in order to receive it.
