Greetings my Fellow Steemians!

It's been a couple of weeks since I shared a Medicine Card Monday with you all, due to moving and traveling life has taken many twists and turns for your Eagle Spirit. Here I am again, to share with you a complimentary medicine for your soul. We begin with a a card deck I have yet to share with you all and it is from the Original Angel Cards.

Every month there is a certain word that we work with in connection with angels and for the month of July 2018, the word is Trust.

Trust is "the assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something or one in which confidence is placed." How many of us have issues and that means problems with allowing trust into our lives? Are we constantly skeptical of our fellow man and doubt what others say? Admittedly, I can be very skeptical of humanity in general as much as I'd love to hope in the good I also know that the opposite of good exists in the world too.

When this comes to Steemit, do we not allow others into our lives or show resistance to what information people are sharing with us, regardless of a different perspective? Now may be the time to allow something different into our circle, as long as it is not harmful or negative, why not give it a chance?

Honestly, I can use a little bit of "opening up" myself. Most of the time my bullshit meter goes off with bells and whistles, accompanied by lights of all the colors of the rainbow shining brightly. However, it is not harmful to take a little bit of what someone is sharing and pondering the words. Remembering that not all humanity is jaded is a topic worth exploring. Sometimes we may even get a sweet message from the heavens (if we believe in that sort of thing.) Yes, that is even a form of trust and many today fall back on "I have no beliefs or I believe in nothing."

I'm not going to attempt to get into that at all, there are those that will fight tooth and nail or near death in what they "believe." It is their human right and we are at all levels of growth. Many go as far as to say that we should rip all our beliefs apart and start again. It is important to search our own soul for the answers. If our soul had lived before, well with meditation and taking it a step further meditation accompanied with fasting can bring our soul to a state of deep awareness.

All of my readings are geared towards a healing; breaking through mental, spiritual, or emotional blocks that will assist us in overcoming every day obstacles.

If this is your first time swinging by, my Medicine Card Monday initiative is my positive intention to pull a card of healing or medicine for the community. This is different than tarot in that the cards I use are on the medicinal aspect of humanity other than the most common cards found in a tarot deck.

The decks I use are The Wild Unknown - Animal Spirit, Mystical Shaman Oracle, and the Chakra Wisdom Oracle. The cards will assist in helping those interested, find comfort in things going on in our community and the world we are now dealing with. Namely, issues around the world, astronomical, or overcoming health issues of all sorts, etc., maybe just something out of balance that we are feeling on any particular day that needs guidance.

By pulling a card for Steemit this will in turn assist with my Medicine training, give back to the community, and help those seeking answers. I will take some of the reading from guidebooks provided with the cards, but primarily give intuitive and medicinal words to help our community. We all have days when we need encouragement, inspiration, and comfort.

The Card - Trust

Meaning

Move from a place of knowing within you rather than as a result of adaptation to outer experience. Let go of your assumptions and need to control life's creative process.

The Message

It doesn't matter what spiritual path you’re on, an ultimate sense of peace comes down to one question: Can you let go of the need to control your life, and trust there is a benevolent force guiding all that ever has, is, and will happen?

Trust is the soul's way of attuning to the fundamental laws of reality. There is a deep rhythm that moves through all life that cannot be controlled by our will. When trust informs our experience, it allows our psyche to relax and our soul to be at peace with our situation. We can rest in unquestioned confidence that the universe provides, that we have and will receive what we really need. In fact, often beyond what we alone are even capable of imagining.

When we have a lot of 'basic' trust, we are courageous and take risks. We don't suppress our competencies. We engage in life wholeheartedly, doing what feels appropriate with the confidence that it will work out. Life becomes a story of creation not an obstacle course.

Without basic trust, we tend to react to what arises in accordance with our conditioning, wanting our life to go one way or another. We cling to predetermined assumptions and outcomes. We become tense and contracted and do all we can to manipulate the circumstances to fit with our desires.

Here is a suggestion for changing the automatic internal response to external signals. When a traffic light turns yellow and there is a safe distance to stop before it turns red, what do you tend to do? Do you accelerate to 'make it through'? If so, this is a metaphor for what happens inside when our yellow 'worry light' goes off — we accelerate; try harder, move faster, do more; all stress responses to our conditioning. Trust is the ability to stop and wait for the green light to signal the time to move forward again.

Why not, for the month of July, practice putting on the brake when the light is yellow and taking that moment to pause and breathe in the deeper rhythm of life while waiting for the green light to again signal you to go.

Rest and know that all is very, very well - the Light is about to go green until then increase your capacity for loving thoughts and kind actions. Allow the Angels to inspire your life.

There may be those who do not trust or believe in messages from the Angels, I would like to encourage you to allow them into your life as they are all around us and if you have not read my previous post on the fact that three Angels are appointed to us at birth then I encourage you to read my prior post here. This medicine reading is to encourage an opening and beginning of our word of the month "trust," and not in any way pressure anyone to change their belief system. Maybe just crack it open a little bit, and if you happen to understand the significance of Angels in our life then move on to bringing the above message into your circle of awareness.

I hope you liked the reading for this week. If so, please leave a comment below. I'd love to hear what you think (but not if you think it's all BS!) That's typical Eagle Spirit humor right there.

If you would like a personal Medicine Card reading:

  • Send 2 STEEM or 2 SBD per card (STEEM preferred).

  • Choose a deck and spread: Animal Spirit (1, 2, 3, 4, or 13 card spread), Chakra Wisdom (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 7 card spread), or Mystical Shaman Oracle (1, 3, or 4 card spread.)

  • Each person is given a special one-on-one healing energy session with a reading sent from a Reiki Master Teacher (that be me), and a Native American ceremony is included.

  • Photos will be provided and explained. Please do not share these publicly.

  • You can find me on Discord under the name Eagle Spirit #4491, or through the group @ifc Marketplace under Eagle Spirit's energy work channel.

Have a glorious week and come back next Monday for another Medicine Card reading! Peace.

Greetings,
Thank you for stopping by to read my blog. I’m a First Nation member of the Hopi & Apache Native American tribes, Medicine woman in-training, first time blogger since November 2017, (right here on Steemit), paralegal, researcher, and writer based in the Mountains of Colorado, USA. I work closely with fellow planktons and minnows in a few groups by helping them adjust to Steemit and curate quality content. I’m especially interested in finding others who love natural medicine originating from ancient practices, gold and silver, energy work, and the spirit world. Additionally, I'm the creator of #MedicineCardMonday, so if you are interested in receiving a Native American blessing stop by my blog every Monday, or just say hello!
See you soon, @eaglespirit

I love this and needed to see it now, on a hot steamy rainy northern Thailand Tuesday. Never doubt the ripples you leave in the world! :)

@artemislives hey hey hey are you vacationing? woo hooo my #1 place to go visit. sooo lucky and i can't wait to see pics woo hoooo ... you nearly brought a tear and touched my heart with your words and i thank you so very much for that. love, eagle spirit

Oh, do I ever need this reminder in my life. I seem to have all the trust issues, but I know in order to feel okay I have to trust my higher self (or whatever you want to call it) and trust the universe. Thank you for sharing this message.

@katrina-ariel oh, i'm so happy to have done something with "good timing." thank you so very much for coming by and you deserve a visit too. i'm usually so busy lately for vids and just throwing down a post and getting to the return comments. :(
too much moving and chaos. wahhhhh
blessings, eagle spirit

Thank you! This was a perfect message for where I find myself at the moment. There is a bit of anxiety rearing its head. Something I have struggled with on and off over the years. Learning to cope with such tings can be a lifelong process. An uplifting reminder can be a huge help.
Thanks again.

@headchange oh thank you so very much, and i thank you for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. someone just told me there is like 5 planets in retrograde and an eclipse. not sure that info helps but apparently things seem to be going by super fast and anxiety for all. i feel it too so you are Not alone! hugs.

Actually that really does help. When I pay attention to these things life is a lot smoother. There is a family finance issue I need to shake. I know about vibration and attracting more of the same. Easier said than done.
I follow some people who do great general readings. Time to check in. Finding out when a shift is expected will help relax a bit. Thank you so much. Hope you don't feel too anxious knowing these times will pass is sometimes the best comfort.

@headchange yay, thank you so much for your lovely comment and feedback. blessings, we are all shifting so fast and if we aren't shifting then that is not a good sign at all. do the best you can and keep it real, you will be fine! xoxo

Trust is soooo important in my opinion. I agree. I learned that lesson when I was pretty young fortunately, but.. Most I come into contact with still don't seem to get it. But if you really do.. I think it's really important and says a lot about a person. Some good lessons there. Once again this was an interesting subject, you seem to have a great way with divining symbols that are on a lot of peoples minds!

@apolymask yes trust is a tough lesson, after living in nyc so long i would say i trust no one LOL
sad but true. altho, if i meet folks like the ifc and its so blatantly obvious how awesome everyone is
i do not stop the love from touching my life. i gladly give it in return. thanks so much about the "great way with divining symbols that are on people's minds!" i appreciate that very much. maybe its just me giving a message but i certainly feel it since i learnt the lesson myself too. :)

I never asked if you had gone to Standing Rock? I went end of october/ beginning of November. At the time we had an herb store with hundreds of medicines and I brought a bunch out to share. I wonder if we crossed paths ...

@kilbride i never did, but i did help send supplies and initiate the drop offs. :)
wow that is so friggen amazing, herbs yay! did they use them too? lovely.

Thank you for your beautiful words. Trust is as important as love and respect. Hard to earn it, trusting ourselves and trusting others helps us a lot in emotional health.

@sherylneil oh thank you so much for your kinds words! you are so right about that! ;)

Trust is really important aspect in life and trusting is believing someone or something and if that believe breaks then for sure that gives an heartbreak. So, it's really important to build the trust in life and not to break.

Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. 🙂

@chireerocks yes it certainly is! :)
same to you, my blessings and happiness to you. thank you for stopping by and lending your support.

Thank you so much and welcome. 🙂

Yeah i agree with this👍

@loganmarshall thank you so much, i'm glad you do. :)
