Summer Short #2
Storytelling through Image and a Self-Guided Workshop
A Story of Searching & Finding
This week we travel back to Friday, February 5, 2021 for a short, intuitive story written through images that dance to life through the tarot.
I invite you to study the images before reading the story I created from them four years ago.
See if you can tell where each card begins and ends.
Is there overlap from one image to another?
Allow your mind to scan each image. Allow your heart to speak to you about what you see, know to be true.
Look…what do YOU see?!
~ line = foundation
~ creativity
~ emotion
~ vision
~ joy, happiness
~ content(ment)
Story…
Thank you, Dear Lord, for trusting me to do your work in this world. Your…
Swing and miss
swing and miss
swing and create
you are a creator
your light shines
with divine creation
burning bright
in your heart…
Find your vision
focus on the horizon
see the sunrise and sunset
watch the winds and waves
set your sights on the
world before you
and ask
how can I serve
I am open
I am free
I am a vessel for good
Master the words, the ways
you seek to heal yourself
and others around you
Master the art of looking
what do you see
focus and find your
vision
birthright
joy
peace
destiny
Master the practice of letting go
for it is in the
flow of life
the ability to
set your desires
freely on
the waves of oneness
to know
what is meant to be
will be
it is in the
non-grasping
non-clinging
letting go
that your
contentment
peace and joy
will arrive
Master the ability to love
freely
fully
devoutly
yourself
your life
your place in this world
your people…
Seek what you know
about love, connection
balance, devotion
it comes from inside
look to the vision
of your heart and
you will see all
you need to know
find all the
answers to
your questions and longings
Look deeply
all you need
is right where
you put it
while in loving
conversation
with your
Godly maker
love
love
love
yes, my love,
you can see all
when you look
with an open, free,
love-filled heart
Self-Guided Workshop: What do you find when you look?
I invite you, once more, to study the images. Allow them to resonate within, and see what they can teach you about yourself, about the moment in time you find yourself within.
What wisdom do you need to know right now?
Contemplate the images and see what you know to be true about yourself right here, right now.
For this practice, you do not need to know anything about the symbols, the history, the archetypes, the personality styles, you do not need to know anything about the images you see before you.
Like gazing at the colors and shapes in stained glass windows in a church, or the shapes and stories in the clouds overhead…
Seek, search, find…you already have the answers…they are nestled inside.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this second summer short, and that it has filled you with a spark, a desire to create something out of joy, peace, and love for yourself, for your dear ones this summer.
These summer days, so far, are being filled with a slower, more intentional way of being. I’m finding ways to instill new patterns, habits I’d wanted to place into my days during the school year, but never quite stepped off the hamster wheel to do so.
I’m still in try-and-fail mode, but I’m still trying.
Yoga. Meditation. Swimming. Reading. Resting.
It’s all there, but not as concretely as I’d like.
Perhaps it’s time to draw four more cards and ask…How do I create the new patterns I’m desiring in my life over the next two months?
Sending you love and peace, always…
xoxo Michelle
