Exploring and growing

The Gaian Tarot by Joanna Powell Colbert

 

These are the cards I drew this morning. I keep on drawing the Justice card, reminding me to keep life in balance. I have certainly tried to, and am getting better every day. I have increasingly changed my habits. Small things, add up daily, and year after year, make a huge difference. The main one last year, and this year, has been to stop eating meat unless it is free range, organic and grass fed as well. This goes for eating out as well, though when I do go out to eat I stick with the vegetarian options. Other habits – like a yoga practice, healthy teas, and moon rituals, are building up on previous years’ work. I also have a juicer now, and am experimenting with different juice combinations in the morning.

Before: carrot, apple, orange and beetroot

After: best served in a wine goblet!

Last week I started acupuncture, which I will do again this week, and twice more in February. It was rather painful for me, but I am determined to stick with it. I am treating PMS symptoms, and I hope that together with yoga things will improve.

I see myself in all the cards above, trying to figure out the best way forward in the Explorer of Air, and tending to my garden, and myself, as the Guardian of Earth. Justice helps to keep things in perspective and continuously weigh up the consequences of each daily action, without harsh judgement.

I wish you all a blessed week,

Monica
