krakendelsur: mermaid swimming (what we do in the shadows)

TWO OF SWORDS
Indecision, crossroads, uncertainty, overwhelm.
Two of Sword tarot card
"I release ideas of right and wrong to allow progress."


You're at a crossroads of sorts and are uncertain about which path to take next, or perhaps you're undecided about making a commitment to something. There is no right or wrong answer. No matter which decision you make, the path ahead is ultimately yours to carve.

[PROMPT] In what area of life are you refusing to make a decision or move forward?

Seven of Wands [reversed]
Territorial, Loss of Power, Overwhelm

"Get a hold of yourself and release what doesn't serve you out of your life. Gain back your sense of power and respect by remembering the true essence of who you are."

The Seven of Wands upside down.


This was an interesting draw for me, considering the dream that I had last night... (but I'll write about that in a separate entry later).

In its upright position, the Seven of Wands usually represents standing your ground, asserting your boundaries, etc. In this reverse position, however, it can mean that you're having trouble doing those things because you're doubting yourself (or you're having some inner conflict of some sort), or because you're simply overwhelmed.

On a positive note, this card also invites you to release unnecessary resistance, to let go of the things that just absolutely drain you. It encourages adapability.

Advice for the day: Not everything has to be a knock-down, drag-out fight. Take a moment to decide what's truly important. Choose your battles wisely and trust that you already know how to deal with them.

If this card pull speaks to you, let me know! And if tarot's just not your jam, feel free to scroll past.

Trillium, Spirit into Matter

"Trillium is a rare jewel brightening the forest floor, quietly watching the darkness. She's not waiting for ghouls or ghosts. She fears nothing in these dim-lit woods. No, Trillium is waiting on the first fleeting sparks of new life. Come, she says, drawing you deeper into the consciousness of the trees, let's see what shall be born! While she's been awaiting births for millenia, Trillium's recently developed her invisibility, quietly blending into leaf mulch and fern patches, the dark places where ideas are incubated. On the edge of the abyss of all and nothing, shes ready to ease the transition from spirit to matter. Trillium helps with births; she often sees the first spark when other eyes still see darkness."
- Maia Toll


Trillium grandiflorum

FYI: Trillium, as an herbal medicine, can be used to alleviate menstrual symptoms and to aid in childbirth...which is likely why it's also commonly referred to as "birthroot". It's also used as an antispasmodic, antiseptic, expectorant, astringent, and a diuretic.
