High Priestess, Happy Tarot
Do we have the courage to explore and follow our intuition, and make happiness a top priority?!
"Everything you need to know is inside you already"
And maybe a more important question - do we have the courage to be happy?!
Fearing happiness is an epidemic. Or pandemi even!
The "reasons" are manyfold.
At lest according to our heads...
They can be explicit: "I can't be happy because of..." the misery of the world, another's unhappiness, some kind of 'lack', all shit going on, etc.
And/or implicit, inherent, inbuilt, imprinted. An actual fear of being happy. Pure unfamiliarity - just never having truly experienced it. Never been taught or allowed it - consciously (fear) or unconsciously (inheritance).
A so deeply buried fear- often buried under deep layers of shame or guilt - so we don't even know why it's so hard for us to search for or allow happiness. There are just so many layers of conditioning on top of the source fear.
But we all have it within - the capacity to be happy.
We all carry a true Self knowing this fact.
We all have intuition telling us How - showing us the way.
Another fact: we'll never reach it through our heads.
Only 'feminine wisdom' can help us here - personally, and collectively.
It's NEVER what we THINK will make us happy that takes us there!
(Boy have I tried that path - and 'failed' miserably!)
A common answer is 'only love will take us there'.
But it's not the kind of Love that we're used to.
It's not the 'romantic love'.
It's the so called 'unconditional' kind - the universal, the inclusive one.
It's not about handing out chocolates, flowers and hugs (though it includes that).
It's about having an open heart even when it's hard.
Giving to give, not to receive.
But also being able to receive - which many forgets.
Most of us are in reality more afraid of our infinite beauty than our shadows and fears!
If it wasn't so, wouldn't humans be a more loving kind?
Oh, if we weren't so afraid of feminine and intuitive wisdom!
Oh, if we weren't so separated from (our own) nature!
