Then I realized my stones were ALL THE WAY downstairs. My cards however, were right next to me! I pulled the Nine of Swords.<\/p>\n<p>Well, there ya go, the card of nightmares. \u00a0It&#8217;s still weird to me how these cards, pulled at random reflect what is going on in the moment. Yes, I&#8217;ve been stuck living in a nightmare. My anxiety levels are pretty high. I&#8217;ve been pretty tough on myself, trying to do too many things at once. I&#8217;ve been trying to make something happen to move us to where we need to be. Even though it is apparent that I don&#8217;t have control over it. Not over all of it anyway. I&#8217;m not an advocate of doing nothing. I think we all must do our part. But to expect that I have ultimate control over the situation and therefore ultimate responsibility is silly and harmful.<\/p>\n<p>This card tells me that my suffering is really of my own making and it is not necessarily reflective of my true situation. I think it&#8217;s human nature to see the negative before the positive and that can be overwhelming. I need to remind myself that my attitude really is everything. How I approach my situation affects the outcome. We are all, at some point in our lives, faced with tough situations. The trick is to stay flexible, stay hopeful. And for me, I think I need to approach it like a game. There are strategies to be applied and maybe even some fun to be had, if I can remove my personal expectations and attachments. It&#8217;s time for an attitude change.<\/p>\n<p>When you are in the grip of fear from a nightmare, it&#8217;s time to wake up, splash some cold water on your face and reassess your surroundings, your reality. Move forward with a new approach. Fear can be debilitating and right now, ain&#8217;t nobody got time for that!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Isis Oracle Board can be found<a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/listing\/188322075\/the-isis-oracle-divination-plate-and?ref=shop_home_active_1\"> HERE.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Isidore Tarot can be found <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theisidoretarot.com\/\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; I will be working on an Isis Divination Board for a client today so I thought I&#8217;d cast some stones for myself this morning.
