Card of the Day – Queen of Swords – Sunday, June 2, 2019

Well, well. There must be a New Moon nearby! The Queen of Swords has a habit of being in the vicinity of New Moons, and tomorrow’s New Moon in Gemini is no exception. Normally, she is in b*tch mode and everyone needs to get out of her way. That is not to say that the Gemini New Moon will not not stir someone’s pot, bringing out the cranky, critical, ill-mannered lot, who seem prevalent when the Moon is in darkness. Keep your eye out for them, and try not to be one of them.
However, I strongly feel that this Queen of Swords, being of Air energy, rather signifies her more positive attributes at this time. Today we have a Gemini Moon, Sun, and Mercury, so I suspect our Queen is mentally prepared for the day and ready to put life in order to officially get the month of June…

The Summer Solstice approaches! Ready?
The Summer Solstice is known in contemporary Neo-Paganism as Litha or Midsummer. Neo-Pagan religion often marks this as the moment the sun god meets his death, though sometimes that event is reserved for the cross-quarter in August or the autumnal equinox in September. A bunch of ritual and celebrations ideas can be found here,

Upanīyati jīvitamappamāyu.
Jarūpanītassa na santi tāṇā.
Etaṃ bhayaṃ maraṇe pekkhamāno,
lokāmisaṃ pajahe santipekkho.
Life is swept along, next-to-nothing its span.
For one swept to old age no shelters exist.
Perceiving this danger in death,
one should drop the world’s bait and look for peace.

2019 Gemini New Moon begins Horse Month
June 3 2019 is a new Moon in Gemini. Air sign Gemini rules the third house of communication, intellect, and ideas. The Sun, new Moon, and Mercury are all in Gemini bringing inspiration for new concepts and plans to put into action this month. Travel, especially short trips, is fortunate to expand your horizons.
This new Moon begins month of the Metal Horse, the powerful war Horse. Metal Horse is focused and can leap over obstacles. There’s not a split between mind and emotions with determined Metal Horse in charge.
The Sun and new Moon are opposite Jupiter in Sagittarius. This is a transit of courage, with a drive for freedom, fast change, and action — all natural Horse traits. But people can overextend, and grandiose plans can run away like a wild Horse if there is lack of accountability.
The Sun, new Moon, and Jupiter square Neptune in…

Be Present and Aware | Let The Past Remain In Your Past

It’s time to STOP using the past to justify faulty behaviors and to instead START using the lessons to be a better version of you for yourself and for the collective.
We get so caught up in holding on to resentment from past experiences that we don’t think enough about the chain of negativity we are promoting by doing so.
When we are allowing something from our past to inspire a present negative mindset, that negative mindset influences how we respond to our surroundings which includes how we respond to other people.
By choosing to have a negative perception in the present moment, we make ourselves more susceptible to experience situations that would affect us negatively. How? Because we are transmitting a frequency from that negative perception that attracts more of those similar situations and experiences that we were already resenting from the past.
This is a basis of the Law of Attraction.
By focusing the feelings of the past into our present state of consciousness, we manifest situations that will validate those feelings to us for the present moment.
This becomes what I call a frequency loop. In other words, it becomes a cycle. This is why some people feel they can “never get a break”. They are (more than likely) unconsciously attracting what they don’t want by simply keeping their attention on what they previously didn’t like. It’s even worse when this is done consciously, because consciously we are 100% responsible for everything that “happens” to us from how we respond to life.
If you are reading this and you feel you are stuck in this frequency loop, there is good news – YOU have a CHOICE.
No, the whole world doesn’t have to know anything, so there’s no need to feel shame from admitting if you’re stuck in this loop. Only you know deep down where you are in your level of awareness and what your options are based on the available choices in each moment, it is all just a matter of self-honesty.
If you know that you are consciously projecting out faulty behaviors to innocent people, you have every available moment of Now to choose otherwise.
Yes, many of us have horribly traumatic experiences. Yes, we might feel undeserving of many situations. But you must remember that it is not life’s fault. You must remember that there are thousands and millions of people around you that also have had horrible experiences, many that you will have no idea about, they are innocent and undeserving of your faulty behavior even if you feel it is justified from previous experiences with others. Deep down, you know this.
It’s time to STOP using the past to justify faulty behaviors and to instead START using the lessons to be a better version of you for yourself and for the collective.
What serves you serves the collective, and what serves the collective serves you even more.
What I try to do at the beginning of each day is ask myself some questions.
The questions I ask myself are usually as follows:
Am I holding on to anything right now?
If so, how can I use the lesson to serve my higher purpose today?
How am I going to be of service for the collective today?
You don’t have to ask yourself the exact same questions, but it may help to have some sort of internal dialogue planning out what type of mindset you are choosing and what you hope to attract for that day.
Something I like to do in the evenings is to take a few moments and evaluate my day.
A question and statement I usually say to myself before going to sleep are as follows:
Am I holding on to anything from the day?
If so, what is the lesson to learn so that I can have a restful night?
No matter the conclusion, there is absolutely nothing else that can be done on that day, so it is imperative that you release the attachment to any situation from that day so that you can have a restful night to inspire a better tomorrow.
It’s time to STOP using the past to justify faulty behaviors and to instead START using the lessons to be a better version of you for yourself and for the collective.
What serves you serves the collective, and what serves the collective serves you even more.
What do you CHOOSE today?
This piece is an original written by me, inspired by my experiences and my Higher Self. Thank you so much for taking your time out to read this. As always, any objections, additions, criticisms or opinions are welcome to be expressed and I look forward to any commentary that you may have.
I wish you all much love and peace on your life journeys. 🙏❤️🙏
