WHITE TARA ~ Sensitivity
This fortnight begins with New Moon energy (on the 13th) in the sign of Libra - these energies usher in new potential in the areas of relationships, whether romantic, platonic or work-related, as well as highlighting our finances and all things related in terms of our beliefs, perceptions, perspectives and views, and our willingness to adapt and allow these new energies to integrate into our being and become our new way of being.
We are being asked to nurture ourselves, not only in the inner world, but also in the outer world - in our lives as a whole. As we become more in tune with our inner world and its workings, we may notice that the external world becomes a little harsher and less encouraging.
This occurs as we become more aligned with our purpose and highest potential and just like a mirror, we are faced with all of the aspects of Self that are either hindering or assisting us as we progress on our journey, further showing us where potential for growth lies.
We become more sensitive to harsher energies, people and places simply because they no longer sustain us, yet they still attempt to keep us where we have been: lost, confused and in the dark and this is where we wage our battle - we have moved, or are moving from that chaos and into a more peaceful state as we align with our inner guidance. The attainment of this peaceful state is one of conscious choosing - it becomes very much a mindful state of awareness that we enter into - at each stage we get to choose whether what we’re experiencing feels good to us or not; and we get to choose whether we want to be a part of that; we also get to choose a different state of mind and being if we are unable to get away from certain situations.
The gift of free will and empowerment gives us the ability to choose our point of view at each stage of the journey - we can either choose to come from a centred and empowered place, or we can choose to be a victim of the circumstances that we find ourselves in.
This card brings the message of self-care and nurturing as mentioned earlier - we have the power to bring ourselves back to centre at any time - if you don’t know how, then be proactive and ask someone about it, or do your own research.
Chances are that at some point during the day we are faced with and situated within energies and situations that we would prefer not to be a part of, however, once that time has passed we can connect back with our Inner Self or Source and cleanse our self of the debris that was picked up during our time in the world.
We cannot hide away from the world and hope that things will ‘sort themselves out’ while we’re away, hoping to walk back into a world that has found peace and love and all things wonderful. We must be an active participant in the change that we wish to see in the world.
Keywords for this fortnight: self-care; nurturing; sensitivity; empowerment; choices; free will; cleansing; centring; connecting to Self; connecting to Source; mindfulness; pro-active; initiative; sense of Self.
