What is our overall collective energy?

3 of Wands Reversed - We are questioning our support. This is a collective reading, so let's explore the different meanings of this card. Perhaps, you are questioning your support system, or the team you are building. You might be asking the Universe,"Is this net strong enough to catch me when I fall?" 

Others in the collective might be experiencing a lack of Vision , or lack of belief in their vision. We have an idea of where we are going, but we have no idea how we are going to get there. Good thing the Universe has a habit of filling in the blanks when the details are fuzzy at best. I love the idea that our journey has the right to be filled with humor and joy. All this striving, reaching and searching can be exhausting. Dorothy and her friends got into all kinds of fun trouble on the way to see The Wizard. And may I also remind you what a big let down meeting The Wizard was in the end. It really is about the journey and not the destination after all!

Let us be open to the idea that the answers to our questions may look drastically different than how we envisioned. Let us also be open to the idea that help is not only on the way, it's closer than we think. How does it feel to say to yourself, "The answers I seek are already here?"

To gain more guidance on how we can approach these energies, I pulled a card from "The Healing Mantra" deck by Matt Kahn. The card I pulled was Uncovering Confidence - I am the missing piece that completes the puzzle of the Universe.

This card and its message are reminding us not to downplay our self worth or our role in the universe. You might be blocking your own vision by asking yourself limiting questions like "Why would anyone want to help me with reaching my goals?" Try to open yourself up to the idea that people want to help you for a multitude of reasons. People love the feeling they get from helping others, and just maybe someone wants to help you because they see how much YOU help others. 

To help us gain more insight into our shadow, I pulled a card from the "Threads of Fate Shadow Oracle" deck by Blaire Porter and Brit June. The card is Surrender.

Why do we insist on making everything so hard? Could this belief be part of what is blocking our manifestation? The stories of pressure making a diamond and friction making a pearl might be true, but beauty can also be soft. Allow your softness to guide your manifestation to you. Set the table because the celebratory guests are already on their way. Prepare your altar because your angels and ancestors have been listening. Create a soft bed for your dreams to land because you've already put in the hard work and now is the time to gently and gratefully receive. 

The last card I pulled for the collective comes from the "Moonology Oracle" deck by Yasmin Boland and Nyx Rowan.The message is "Full Moon in Aries - A Fiery Climax Approaches!

Rest assured whatever you have set into motion is on its way. This is not a question of "if", but "when" and the answer is "soon." I said earlier to create a soft bed for your dreams to land, but as I wrote those words I began to envision an actual bed and another layer to the message. I had this feeling of needing lots of rest to keep up with all the manifestations. You run the risk of not feeling ready, worthy or grateful  when these gifts show up. Let this season be the one where you choose to be ready, worthy and grateful for all the Universe has planned for you.
