Daily Card Reading – #23 – The Serpent
#23 – THE SERPENT
KNOWLEDGE, HEALING
The Serpent’s message is one of healing and of gaining knowledge. Whatever situation you’re in right now is meant for this purpose. The Serpent also reminds you that knowledge is important. Perhaps it’s time for you to read a book or take a class in order to gain more understanding of your inquiry, or you may need to ask questions of others who “know” and can help you. Ask the Serpent and you will be guided to the right answer easily and effortlessly. The Serpent heralds success if you follow his signal. The Serpent also lets you know that you may be suffering because there are aspects of yourself that are wounded and still need tending. Now is the time for this. Perhaps you need to rest, meditate, and allow the knowledge to come to consciousness. Or maybe you just need to sleep more. Another aspect of Serpent energy is that each time you experience a healing or learn new things, you may need to shed your skin to adopt a new one. But don’t worry—the Serpent says that it’s a necessary and beautiful thing.
Notes to Self
Notes to self….random thoughts on this day
- I noticed a package that originated in California is on its way to me…it originally originated with Fed Ex and has been transferred over to the US Postal Service….and I wonder what’s up with that….
- You never really can tell what the weather is going to be like from one week to the next….seventies one week and then snow that same weekend…and NO, it really doesn’t snow nearly as much as it used to when I was much younger
- People that drive those great big pickup trucks tend to drive much slower than most vehicles….and a goodly number of them don’t act like they really know how to drive a big truck
- In many or even most stores, a two liter drink is cheaper than a 20 ounce drink…I guess that’s the price you pay for getting it cold
- I use my personal computer and cell phone a lot less now that I’m not on FB any more
- I can’t think of any more “Notes to Self” to write, so I guess I’ll be closing out for now…please feel free to include notes of your own in the comments below.

#52 – MILK AND HONEY
THE TASTE OF PROSPERITY; OPPORTUNITIES BORN OF AUTHENTICITY; NURTURING ABUNDANCE; TRUSTING THAT YOUR NEEDS WILL BE MET
PROTECTION
Protection message: A nameless unease compels you to turn to pleasure and comfort as a means to escape what’s really going on. It works in the moment, but only fleetingly—before the feelings return and you need to re-up until you’re exhausted. Feeling worse than before, you may continue struggling . . . or you may see the light and choose to surrender to Spirit. Now is the time for practicing extreme selfcare. If you can, do so before you engage in behaviors you’ll regret later. You are so loved, so cared for. Feel love and compassion for yourself. Turn your troubles over to the Divine for healing. That’s all that counts right now.

Don’t Call It Love….
Fingernail moonlight
The way that you kiss me
How your face hit the moon
Blame it on the twilight
Waning other daylight
The way you held my hand
How you never would let go
(chorus)
Oh baby don’t get caught up
Don’t surrender to the touch
You can say anything your heart’s dreaming of
But don’t call it love
Call it a longing
Call it a yearning
Don’t call it love
Call it a sweet dream
Shh don’t say nothing
It’s like a beautiful car crash
That two people could lie in
Nobody gets hurt and
No one’s left behind
And when I dive into your light
We swim past the riptide
And maybe this is everything
Yeh that we’ve been waiting for
But don’t call it love
Call it a longing
Call it a yearning
Don’t call it love

Clarity and Direction…selected reading…
In spite of our best efforts to work our programs and lean on God’s guidance, we sometimes don’t understand what’s going on in our life. We trust, wait, pray, listen to people, listen to ourselves, and the answer still does not come.
During those times, we need to understand that we are right where we need to be, even though that place may feel awkward and uncomfortable. Our life does have purpose and direction.
We are being changed, healed, and transformed at levels deeper than we can imagine. Good things, beyond our capacity to imagine, are being prepared and brought to us. We are being led and guided.
We can become peaceful. We do not have to act in haste or urgency just to relieve our discomfort, just to get an answer. We can wait until our mind is peaceful. We can wait for clear direction. Clarity will come.
The answer will come, and it will be good for us and those around us.
Today, God, help me know I am being guided into what’s good about life, especially when I feel confused and without direction. Help me trust enough to wait until my mind and vision are clear and consistent. Help me know that clarity will come.
From The Language of Letting Go by Melody Beattie
Meditation and Prayer for the Day,,,
Gently breathe in God’s spirit, that spirit which, if not barred out by selfishness, will enable you to do good works. This means rather that God will be enabled to do good works through you. You can become a channel for God’s spirit to flow through you and into the lives of others. The works that you can do will only be limited by your spiritual development. Let your spirit be in harmony with God’s spirit and there is no limit to what you can do in the realm of human relationships.
Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may become a channel for God’s spirit. I pray that God’s spirit may flow through me into the lives of others.
