For a couple of weeks after I received the beautiful self-published ‘Tree Whisper Oracle’ by Maggie Black https://treewhisperoracle.wixsite.com/website, I frequently pulled ‘Integration’, and the message resonated. As I move forward with Brigid’s Creel, what I thought would be a blog about Tarot and Oracle cards, is going to be about the many allies that accompany us on the road to healing. These allies help to create balance. My sun sign is Libra. Ultimately, I suppose, the lack of balance feels wrong; unfulfilling.
The word ‘unfulfilling’ may sound a little selfish, so let’s turn it around; to fulfill conveys a straight-forward, positive idea. Here are two definitions from the OED: Achieve or realize; gain happiness or satisfaction by fully achieving one’s potential. I would wish fulfillment for everyone. I am truly grateful for the friends I’ve made, and look forward to strengthening the threads that connect us.
Many of you will already be aware of my interest in gardening and herbs. I also enjoy photography, history, literature, and folklore. Looking to the cultural and spiritual traditions of my ancestors has always been very inspirational.
The key theme of the posts will be the life-affirming journey to healing and creative expression. The content I share will be offered with the hope that I am providing a space where others might find kinship, and allow themselves to comfortably sit for awhile.
