@deborah-carey Love your quote! Very calming for us all. Please note, we can't support photos at this time.
@joeym. I have been feeling anxious for a while now, anxious and expectant, as if I’m waiting for another shoe to drop in this calamitous year. From the beginning of the month, I felt that something momentous would happen in August. Was it the Post Office scandal? The Senate intelligence report about Russian interference in the 2016 election? Russia paying bounties for dead American soldiers? I’m still stuck in anxiety mode, so it hasn’t happened yet. Or maybe I’m just picking up the anxiety of the collective.
I am not sure what it is either, but have felt that something is coming too, hence all the "prepare for a natural disaster" posts I have made. We are certainly having some BIG natural disasters. The gulf coast tis really going to get hit hart with the 2 hurricanes. California and a lot of the west is just dealing with horrific fire conditions and destruction.
But, is there more? Is this what I am picking up on. Is it a BIG event of some sort or a layering of events. The pandemic was one big event but with multiple layers effecting many different things.
If it is political, what are we preparing for?
@jeanne-mayell sorry about that.. ummm by the way.. I can see a blue sky from here.. first time in several weeks.. air quality is now just poor, and not hazardous.. I am in the SF bay area.. as a point of reference. the animals have calmed down also, and it smells better.. thought a bit of good news might be in order.
@deborah-carey No worries, please! It was a beautiful photo, but with all the web issues lately (Which I think I'm making headway on), I am trying to minimum page load and photos are big files.
I've been experiencing a vision of Gaia–it's Earth as seen in the famous photo from the Moon, the same colors, but they're infused with a delicate shell-hued pink and light blue. If you look a bit closer, beneath the clouds, there is a fine grid of gold that envelops the globe, and the whole thing is alive and vibrant.
I asked if this was a glimpse of the future, and no, it feels like now. But how can that be, I wondered, when our planet is buffeted by so many shocks from global warming.
Nevertheless, Gaia is there, in all her beauty.
I'm not sure what to make of this, or how to reconcile it with the current state of the world and the US in particular.
@gbs That's so beautiful, gbs! I think we're so in the midst of the chaos of it all that we can't see that our earth is being protected spiritually. It all starts with spirit, and then ultimately ends up in the physical realm. So that's my take ... you are seeing the transformation of our planet starting in the spiritual world and, ultimately, it will manifest in the physical, too.
I was doing some cards today and while I was getting not the greatest answers to some of my questions, I was extremely heartened by the resounding positive answers I got to my questions about our planet.
I asked:
1. Will we be able to restore our planet from the damage we've created? The card that came up is 9 of pentacles, always a positive one for me. It represents a garden of abundance and beauty, what we'll be able to help our planet become once our hearts, minds, and will transform globally.
2. Will Earth survive, heal, and replenish? I got the ace of cups, which to me represents abundance and opportunity, renewal and new beginnings. So I take this as a resounding yes.
3. Will humanity survive this time of change and continue on our planet? I got two cards, the 9 of cups (which to me represents happiness, satisfaction, and fulfillment), and page of cups, which I always see as an offer of goodwill and a representation of genuine love. It tells me that we are an integral part of this planet, and humanity will continue.
My reading did surprise me in a good way, because I wasn't getting particularly encouraging answers in some other areas (we're still in for a bumpy ride), but the light and beauty these cards suggest for our planet resonates with your vision of gold, pink, and blue. I am happy to hear you say it starts now!
@leona
Just wondering if the number 4 could be for Nov. 4, the day after the election.
