While meditation might sound like something that everyone can do in just a few simple minutes, the honest truth is that there is more to it than just sitting in a quiet space with your hands on your knees and saying “Om”.
When you start to learn to meditate you may wish to look for an experienced teacher or group to help you understand all of the steps to mediating.
Sitting there and closing your eyes and just hoping it will work will lead to no where and feeling frustrated with the practice all together. Once you have an understanding of the steps taken with each form of meditation and know which is right for you and your personality then you will see the results so many rave about.
The study, science and belief in the effect the heavenly bodies have on people’s behavior, personality, fears, lives and so on.
It is believed by people that practice astrology that the moon sign, sun sign, time one was born, year one was born all have an influence as to what makes each individual who they are. It can even lay out what a person’s future holds for them.
There are people that focus on just one aspect of Astrology such as just the sun signs, then there are those that use all aspects of astrology to make up some ones astrological chart. This can be used as a form of divination to help in the understanding of oneself.
When it comes to decks, you’ll see that there are thousands of decks out there, each with their own unique style and flare.
You might be asking yourself, how do you choose? Here are a few questions to ask yourself and tips to follow.
First the creators of the decks do their best to inform you as to what their deck is designed to be used for. Read the box and/or guidebook and see if you like the way they write. If you can’t follow their writing style you may find you wont be able to work with the system they set up for the deck itself.
Go to their websites and learn more about them and the inspiration for the creation of the deck you are looking to purchase.
Second search the art work of the deck. If you are like me the art work has a huge impact on how well you work with the cards. If you can’t stand to look at the art work its a sure sign you wont be able to read the message they are suppose to be giving.
How well does your intuition pick up on the cues in the art work? The reason the cards have artwork in the first place is for you to be able to read the signs within them.
The energy of the New Moon is a time to reflect on your old goals and set yourself new ones.
Now is the time to bring a new manifestation into being, uncover new wisdom, discover a new level of authenticity that will guide you forward.
Activity: Take a pen and paper and write down 10 things you want to bring into your life right now. Once you have written it all down, read them aloud one by one.
Now, fold up the paper and place it under a charged crystal. Now take another sheet of paper and set an intention for the month ahead. Use the following prompts as a guide-
“This month I invite………into my life.” “This month I set the intention to create…..in my life.” “My intention this month is to……”
Feel free to get creative. You may even feel inclined to decorate your intention using colored pens and pencils. Have fun with what you desire to manifest. Hang up the paper somewhere it will be seen all month long.
What is the theme of this month for you? What do you need to invite into your life to progress in the way you desire? What would be beneficial for you to release? What is the message that the universe wants you to hear the most?
🌏Close your eyes 🌬Take a breath 🔥Open your eyes…Pick a card. 🌊Comment with the number you chose.
