Daily Draw - Invite Help

 Card: Invite Help

Message: "Invite the Divine to pursue you. Seriously, just say, I'm finally ready, God. Pursue me."




The art on this card is amazing. Our deity sits in lotus position with their hands in the Varada Mudra and the Abhaya mudra. Varada Mudra signifies compassion, charity and sincerity. It is symbolic of giving and forgiveness and symbolizes protection, peace, and the dispelling of fear. The deity pictured is, I believe to be Tara. She is thought to have been born of empathy for the suffering world and is regularly invoked for protection, guidance, and deliverance from difficult situations. In this case we see the Green Tara. The more dynamic Goddess, Green Tara is the ‘Mother Earth’, and a fierce Goddess who overcomes obstacles, and saves us from physical and spiritual danger. Learn more about Tara here.


When we see this card in our pull, we're reminded that there are times when we should seek guidance outside ourselves. We should welcome the intellect and wisdom of the ancestral energy that resides around us. We have all of their voices within us and if we listen we can hear them. If we call them, they will come. We merely need to look for that message to see it.

What's happening in your life today that requires some introspection? What decisions are you struggling with? What choices do you need to make that are impactful and weighing on you? Today is the day to reach out to the universe and welcome the vast knowledge of those within to help guide your path. Put that energy out there, that you are ready to listen and use the information you receive.

Daily Draw - Sanctity

 Card: Sanctity

Message: "Through offering, even the most mundane problem can become a sacrament."



Our card today reminds us that not everything needs to be a grandiose event when we're working towards the right path. We see Hanuman, the monkey god seated in the lotus position, his hands in the Bhairava Mudra with with Rama and Sita watching from above. Hanuman is described as the "son of Pawan", the Hindu god for wind, Hanuman is known for his extraordinary daring feats, strength and loyalty. He is love, compassion, devotion, strength and intelligence. The Bhairava Mudra is also called
Shiva or Shakit mudra, it is said to bring strength and power to the forefront.
A sacrament is a familiar word used across cultures. For some it means a gift or offering. Others it is a sacrificed or dedication to a deity. Sacraments are rites in which Hindus reaffirm their connection to the Divine. The Sanskrit word ​samskāra ​ means “groove in the mind,” or colloquially, “upbringing,” and indicates rituals and ceremonies intended to leave deep spiritual impressions on the individual's conscience.



So what is our card telling us. We're reminded here that even things that we see as day to day tasks can become something of an offering. I am reminded of Zen Master Hahn who believed that the simple act of washing dishes or having tea is an opportunity to connect to the energy of all. So take this message of the Sanctity card today and welcome the mindful mundane daily activities that can help guide us to enlightenment. The simple, the meaningful offerings of the one will open the door to nirvana.
How does this connect to you today? Maybe taking a moment to sit with the breath and listen to the world around you is the answer you seek.

Daily Draw - Trust

 Card: Trust

Message: "Allow me, Divine, to give You my deepest longings, trusting You to know exactly how to handle them."



Imagery of Butterflies continues on this new pull for today. If you recall butterflies represent change, transformation and hope. The artist has a velvety blue background with leaves and branches spread across the card. Near the center two hands cup one of the three butterflies presented on this card. The outstretched palms a symbol of welcome, peace and trust for a millennia. This is the Pushpaputa mudra can be practiced while meditating. Some of the benefits of the mudra include:
Promotes compassion toward others
Opens up the mind to be receptive of blessings of the universe
Promotes inner spaciousness
Helps to overcome fear
Relieves negative feelings and promotes positive attitude
Pushpaputa is a Sanskrit term which means "handful of flowers" and refers to the offering of flowers to God in this mudra.





This is the very definition of trust. As you move forward in your day today, try to find times to pull in or work with this energy today. Trust can be in many forms and can be visualized in different ways. Trust in caring for a loved one, be it human, feathered or fur. Between the physical and the divine with offerings to the gods/goddesses for their guidance and trust that you will find the message you need to move forward.
Take some time today and sit down and visualize your hope and dreams. Create an offering space, be it physical or a post on social media that allow you to focus your energies on creating that future that you desire. As you move forward today, remember that you are the creator of your future, you sing your song, you write your story. Take the pen and author the best life you can have.
