04/22/12: Knowing your truth to speak it | Chariot

2  comments

Can’t very well do a Chakra for the Everyday Tarot, but that was the first card I drew. So I followed it up with Triumph, better known as the Chariot (Cancer).  This version emphasizes the focus and dedication, not really hitting upon the idea of channeling of both light and shadow that’s often seen in more RWS-traditional renditions as white and black horses or similar. Of course, he is riding a dark horse, so there’s a hint of having mastered his darker nature, making it possible for him to ride it ahead.

Together, these cards make an excellent prescription for Triumph—speaking your truth, clearly and without embellishment. Words that come directly from the heart, words that honestly and truly convey deep conviction, carry immense power! Others may recoil (depending on your chart), but it doesn’t matter. Stay true to YOUR Source, you belief, your heart. Honestly facing both that which you’re proud of and that which you’re not so much, and staying true to both—grants even great wells of power.

The parts that feel broken, the parts that are scuffed and muddy and beat up…? Whatever feels unlovable needs love the most! Amidst reaching one’s lifetime quota of growth, we sometimes collect pockets of energy that helped us out of a fix but no longer serve. Maybe there was a threat,  pain, or a difficult situation, and we developed special coping skills. Thank the Gods, it saw us through the night. But sometimes, we cling, unconsciously long after the night is done.

Thank your mind, thank your body, for serving through adversity. Appreciate how you’ve grown through each challenge and acknowledge the love with which your soul has protected you. Then ask to release all thoughts, habits, and patterns that are no longer helpful and adaptive. Never denying what’s there, never hating who you are, it’s safe to see all as it is. You can find your truth. That’s the first step to speaking it.

Do you feel free to speak your truth? Why or why not?
