Have you ever had a scenario that played out, and in its wake, you felt like you should have seen it coming from a mile away? At that moment, if you had a tarot deck at the ready, you’d most likely have pulled the High Priestess Reversed. This card speaks to blocked intuition, hidden agendas, and a need to listen to one’s inner voice. You may also refuse to look beyond the obvious. Is there a secret in the wing? Is there more to the story? Most likely.
If you have blocked intuition, I recommend reaching for the crystals and essential oils that speak the most to you. Amethyst is known for its calming and intuitive properties. Lapis Lazuli enhances honesty, wisdom, and connection. Moonstone nurtures emotional balance, wisdom, and inner truth.
Clary Sage enhances intuition and clarity while balancing emotions. Sandalwood is excellent for quieting the mind, grounding your body, and connecting with higher consciousness, especially during meditation. Lastly, Frankincense is known for its ability to deepen spiritual connection and enhance meditation, as it helps one access subconscious knowledge and wisdom.
Whether you reach for crystals, essential oils, or both, the theme that has been running since the start of December is to check in with yourself to see if what you see tracks who you are and what you believe. Shakespeare penned it well, “To thine own self be true.”
Sending you light and love. -Maggie
