Relationships

Many of the Tarot readings I do for my clients deal with relationship issues. If you are concerned about a relationship, either with your partner, a family member or friend, you can consider the following entries for contemplation:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Eye to Eye. When was the last time you looked properly into your partner’s eyes? Conjure those eyes now in your mind—their tint and shape, the person who lives deep in the well of their pupils. Spend five minutes or so dwelling on this image, with love. Then go and find your partner: do it for real.

Capture an intimate moment. Intimacy nourishes the soul of a relationship. Yet in long-term cohabiting relationships, it is all too easy for intimacy to disappear amid the mundane concerns of daily life. Bring to mind on of the most intimate moments in your relationship. Recapture the positive feelings of warmth, love, openness and trust that you experienced in that moment and meditate on them. Expanding these feelings within the present moment will help to nurture them within your relationship as it is now.

Evergreen love. Meditate on the evergreen tree as a symbol of the constancy of your love. Visualize an evergreen standing amidst deciduous trees. Watch the other trees loose their leaves in autumn, while the evergreen remains green. Practice this meditation to help sustain the love in your relationship through good times and bad.

Letting go. When you love someone deeply, you may be tempted to place demands and restrictions on them, fearing that they will abandon you. However, if love is to flourish between you, you must give your partner freedom to follow their own path, otherwise they will come to resent you. Visualize your lover as a bird in your hands. Open your hands to release the bird. Watch as the bird flies freely and joyfully in the air above you, before returning to perch on your finger.

A healing separation. Doubly wounded is the wounded soul that falls in love with its tormentor. Leave and let your wounds be healed.

Friendship’s bounty. “If we have wealth but no friends, we will never be happy. If we have friends, we will be happy, even without wealth.” Epicurus (c. 341-270BC)

“If family minds love another, the home will be a beautiful flower garden.”  The Buddha

The rock in the river. While your child is five years of age or under, take time each day to play the game of “the rock in the river”: to do this, sit cross-legged on the floor and invite your child to sit on your legs with their back on your chest. Enfold them gently in your arms and encourage them to be still with you for five minutes. With time they will develop a sense of inner stillness that will stay with them for the rest of their life.

Roots and wings. “There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children: one is roots, the other, wings.” (Hodding Carter 1907—1972)
