This week the tarot I'll be using is the Ellis Deck, created and self-published by Taylor Ellis. Paired with it will be the Brownies Oracle, created and self-published by Doug Thornsjo. Today's draws are the Four of Cups and Interlude:
The state of in-between, where life is neither pleasant nor unpleasant, can be confusing and often leaves us feeling ungrounded. We seem to be in waiting mode for either sunbeams of joy to illuminate our life or an anvil to fall from the skies on our head. Humans generally know how to dive into happiness or hunker down in a defensive posture, but that stuck in neutral stuff is difficult. Yet the Interlude card is a reminder that this period is an opportunity to relax from the stresses of being overly excited or driven by anxiety. We can just be a swinging door, watching things come and go without getting worked up about anything.
Those time-outs, we don't do so well. Restlessness sets in. The pandemic is/was a time-out for us that many failed.
ReplyDeleteIt was definitely a lesson in dealing with restlessness!

ReplyDelete! I will remember that one, steeped as I am, these days, in trying not to let myself brew in my own "stories" that are not necessarily true.
