You know… sometimes I'm just overwhelmed with the love, support and kindness of others. . . And always inspired by the incredible people within the Inner Hue village who bravely and boldly put themSelves, their hearts, their truths and vision on the line. It's a scary thing to do. But it's liberating and rebellious and soul affirming. . . And I support every person who is hard at their game. Fighting the inner dragons that tell them they can't. I support those who are deep in their inner shit, doing the work while at the same time honing their craft. . . Spectators can either cheer and support while they are building their courage to get in the game. Or they criticise. If you're experiencing the criticism – drown it out. I believe in you. . . Love grows more love. Belief grows more belief. Put your faith in your dreams not your fears. . . And let's do this! Raise ourselves, raise our communities and raise our standard of Light higher. . . . Ps – meet @leamacka – she's a total rebel with a heart of gold. She's clever, sassy and love filled and she's doing some pretty powerful things..creating some epic alchemy and putting herself on the line. Go sus her out. 🌟

FIND WHAT INSPIRES YOU AND GIVE IT THE ADORATION IT DESERVES. ========= Muse: To be the source of inspiration and/or to meditate. ========= You can be the person who inspires others, be the person who inspires yourself or find something that gives you the inspiration juice you need to cultivate and manifest what you want to create. ========= Find the medium that resonates with you the most. ========= Are you a visual person? A reader? Someone who needs to physically feel their way through something? ========= Be in your “element” and then seek out those things that “speaks” to your imagination. ========= Ask yourself: -What inspires me and why? -How can I surround myself with my muse? -What do I need to integrate this into my life? -Who do I want to inspire? -Why do I want to inspire them?

Card results ~~ 1 ~ Ten of Wands: At the moment, we may be feeling uncomfortable in our own skin. We may be engaging with things that are not in full alignment with our truth. Behaving in ways we know aren't good for us, being consciously or unconsciously destructive, passive, apprehensive. Perhaps there is an assertion we need to make, but pleasantries take over. Perhaps we are afraid of our own freedom and potential. Whatever the case, we are being asked to redesign our relationship to ourselves. This is an opportunity to shed what no longer serves us and move into something harmonious. Two ~ Six of Cups: We cannot truly understand joy without knowing pain. We cannot truly understand pleasure, either. When we endure difficulty in life, we grow the wonderful ability to experience empathy. Walking a mile in someone else's shoes, realizing they are just like us in many respects. That lesson is timeless. Use this empathy to deepen your intimacy with the people in your life. Three ~ Hermit: It may be time to go further inward and explore that inner territory. Especially during the holidays, there can be a great deal of input (unwanted in many cases) from friends and family. The only voice that truly matters is yours. When you can, take a step back and meditate on that voice within, the one that holds your best interests at heart. Xx

12/20 Daily #guidance #oracle card! What Is Already With You~ You hold in your hand that which you seek. In other words, the pair of spectacles you have been rummaging around the house for, are sitting on top of your head. What are you seeking, perhaps by exploring far and wide, is actually right under your nose. It is important for you to know that you already have what you need and what you want. That doesn't mean it's the end of the story, although it does ask you to give up the fantasy that a perfect solution lies in the future somewhere. Instead it asks you to acknowledge that everything necessary for success is with you now. This oracle comes with special guidance for you. You are more ready than you think you are. You are more prepared than you realize. You don't need an entire army of resources to move ahead- although you may find that when you do move, many resources suddenly become apparent. Be brave. Dig deep within. And enjoy the sweet surrender. ❤✨ #whatisalready #acknowledgement #appreciation #innerwisdom #lifeexperience #knowledge #acceptance #growth #potential #success #happiness #blessed #grateful #spiritualjourney #support #sacredrebelsoracle #northeasttarot #oraclereadersofinstagram
