~ Today’s card is entitled “Contemplation Time”, and it comes to us from the Magical Mermaids & Dolphins deck. This card’s vividly colored imagery depicts a lovely mermaid sitting on the sand, deep in thought. She sits quietly, by herself except for the red parrot perched in the brush behind her. I see the parrot as her spirit animal or totem, a devoted guide who keeps her calm and centered and protected. The parrot is a symbol of the fact that we are never alone on this journey – even when it might appear that way. We are being encouraged to take some much-needed alone time, preferably outdoors in nature or in our own specially created indoor Sacred Space. We are being asked to set time aside to do this, when we know that we’ll be uninterrupted by telephones and kids and the daily chaos. Sit quietly. Try your best to clear your mind. Then ask a question, such as, “What is my mission here on Earth?” If you already know the answer to this question, you may wish to ask something like, “What is the next step I am supposed to take?” or “How do I manifest the abundance necessary to turn my dreams into reality?” Have pen and paper ready to jot down any words, ideas or images that come through. Everything is significant in some way, and there are no right or wrong answers.
~ Hopefully, these contemplative sessions will yield some valuable insight and clarity, as to the direction in which you should be going. As you record your intuitive findings, after several meditations they should begin to take shape and tell a story. A wonderful and empowering story. The story of your awakening.
