Thank you, I've been very stressed with family issues lately, my heartbroken sister is on my sofa (which as you can imagine is very draining!) Plus we are going to the police re our brother (see the incest thread if want details) so it's been particularly tricky. I'm starting to feel a bit better than I have been at the start of the week. I've asked the universe for a sign I'm on the right path
focusing on meditation and allowing myself to feel the feelings
@Misbehaving how do tarot cards work please? Can anyone do them?
@Thank(space)you I just want to say that I have so much admiration and respect for you.
I think under very difficult circumstances, you have handled yourself brilliantly.
No one could do any better no one!
You deserve to be proud of yourself,you have been through hell and back and you are coming out of the other side.
That's a testament to your strength of character, resilience and tenacity.
If I was even 10 per cent the person you are I would hold my head up high every day, you have nothing to be ashamed of,not ever!
Every time I have read one of your posts I have felt in the presence of someone calm and wise and intuitive and understanding.
I feel you have a vast reserve of empathy, insight courage and strength and it's yours to tap into at any time.
It took courage and trust for you to open up, but I'm so glad you did.That was the first hardest step not being afraid to speak the truth.
Or feeling the fear and having the strength and presence of mind to work through it anyway.
That's amazing a real achievement...from now on as difficult as things are or can get, at least they will never be as bad as before.
You truly are a brave person and I believe you can free yourself, from now on to face your trauma's get help or support if needed and to finally get a chance to live out your best possible future.
You can do this, you're already come so far.
Love to you, your patience and understanding and love for others will come back to you and then some. Of course you felt drained who wouldn't?
This is energy spent dealing with painful issues but it's a release from it as well.
You're amazing
and truly deserve every future happiness and support either from a higher source (manifestation) or from other people.
As for the tarot, thank you for asking, i am not a professional and I just go by my instincts and intuition tbh.
I am into astrology and found a deck online (Amazon) that combined the two, from that I would just do a 3 card spread (the most simple) from that.
I found it reassuring and accurate in answers and then when I started doing shadow work and looking into (Jungian) archetypes, I purchased the Dark wood tarot set and read the accompanying book.
I haven't used them (not yet) in the traditional sense but just got inspired to consult them in regards to finding out my real (previously hidden) character?
That was just me, seeking inspiration I think,but it worked and I am grateful for that.
Really I just dabble but it's a tool that I find useful as I overthink and have a tendency towards anxiety sometimes.
Symbols and archetypes are very powerful I think and speak to the subconscious?
That's what I needed at the time.
Again thank you for asking, sorry don't know if that was useful for you or not ,but I find that when our intuition speaks and we act on it, we find the right path?
Good luck
to you for now and in the future, you deserve it.
