Hey! It’s Monday! Do something you’ve never done before this week.
I accidentally slept through my cycle class this morning so I decided to do the real thing and bike White Rock for the first time.
9.3 miles in an hour. I’ll call that a success. @bicibits would be proud of me. :) Y’all own this week.

Partnerships and unions come in all forms. They aren't just for lovers but also for friends, business partners, teachers and students - any time two energies meet and begin to create the two of cups' energy can be found.

Life is relationships. Every day we are meeting people, connecting, letting go, moving forward, building, creating. The two of cups calls attention to the special relationships in our lives that are more than your average friendship. It opens us up to the idea of more. It asks us to respect that some relationships have the potential to be life altering. These partnerships can change your entire world should you be open to letting them.
Respect them. Let them change you. Allow yourself that adventure. You'll never know the what ifs if you don't allow yourself to explore.

Ahhh. The four of cups. This card has shown up in 3 out of my last 4 card reads.
This card is a card of greed and discontent. It's easy to overlook and take for granted the people and things we have in our lives. It is a reminder to snap out of your funk and appreciate all the goodness around you.
It's easy to get down about where you're at during the winter months. The days are short, the weather is cold and we find ourselves being forced to take it slower. The best antidote to this discontent is gratitude. Be thankful we have this time to stay in and give our projects space to grow.
I highly recommend checking out @heartwrenchstudio and her Ritual book she's created. Her guide through the winter months is giving me life.
Embrace these slow days and start thinking about the things you want. Spring is just around the corner anyway. :) #tarot #fourofcups #thewildunknown #winter #spring #unhappy #discontent #greed #gratitude #theebbandtheflow #cold #slow #breath #break #relax #manifest

The last three out of the four reads I've done this past week, I've seen the four of cups.
I feel like it's worth taking a moment to reflect upon this card. I worked with this card in depth in December due to it being my 12th card in my #yearaheadspread2017.
The four of cups is a card of discontent and greed. It asks us why do we feel so unhappy even though all our needs are met? It's hard not to feel this way given it is January - the coldest month of the year. The weather keeps you inside and your energy is sapped away.
I recently read through a beautiful piece of work by @heartwrenchstudio called Ritual. One thing that stuck out to me was that winter - this cold, dull time - is when creativity blossoms. It's where ideas come to fruition. This dull period must exist in order for greatness to emerge.

Worrying is the fastest way to illness. It kills the spirit, deflates the energy and leaves us feeling helpless.
During this transition time a wise man (aka my father) keeps telling me to be a warrior not a worrier. Change is taxing. The unknown is scary. Not having a sense of how things are going to work out is terrifying. However, worrying about it doesn't do you any good.
Next time you feel this emotion, recognize it. Honor it. Take a deep breath and then let the worry slide right off of you.
There are better, more constructive ways to channel that energy.
You're a warrior.

Big thanks to @jjr476 for pulling the V of Pentacles today during her tarot read. I needed the reminder as well. :) #tarot #worry #fear #brave #courage #thewildunknown #theebbandflow #stress #anxiety #illness #warrior #strength #fighter #keepgoing #yougotthis #dontworry

Eek! 1/16/18 has arrived and I'm so excited to share with you all of the amazing things happening in The Ebb and The Flow's world.

I pulled the Tower card for this #yearaheadspread2018 and LET. ME. TELL. YOU. This card does not play. Holy hell, it has been such a journey already and I'm only 16 days into this new year. The Tower is a swift reminder that nothing is permanent or stable. Your world can completely fall apart in a matter of minutes. Two weeks ago I had a full time corporate job and now I have no choice but to trust the path that I am on and have faith that the Universe knows what it is doing.
____________

The energy of the Tower is terrifying. If you have experience with this card, you know what I am talking about. However, I'm learning that being forced to face your fears isn't as daunting as I thought it would be. In fact, it is a relief. Complete destruction allows complete creation. You cannot build something new while you're sitting in the old.
____________

So here we go.
