Birds – Freedom
The year has been tiring for many reasons, perhaps too many to list. You desire to soar like the birds. If you are near water, you can watch them swooping and enjoying the breezes moving from water to land and back again.
Your soul is like a caged bird. The stress of living the way you are is the cage denying you freedom.
The end of the year beckons you to the New Year. The Death card symbolizing things that must leave your life so you can move on has already appeared this month. Have you followed its guidance and started to release things from our life? You have received the Feathers card as well, all symbolizing what is ahead and to let go. Be prepared to greet the New Year with excitement and expectation.
If you are in a part of the world where you can open your windows and let fresh air in to your home, do so. This breath of fresh air is the literal breath of new air that you need to breathe. If you cannot open your home because of the weather. Bundle up and go for a walk in a park or near a lake.
The new air in your lungs, its freshness and energy, will motivate you to spread your wings and seize new opportunities the New Year brings. Do not hesitate. When the New Year starts, be prepared also for being free to speak your truth.
The cage for your soul also includes bars that prevent you from speaking your truth. Your honesty is locked away because you fear that what you have to say may not be well received. This confines you and makes you a follower. It takes away your power. The New Year is a time to take back your power and express yourself to the world in your own way on your own terms.
