Your Weekly Oracle
A little late, but better late than never...
I asked "What should we focus on for ourselves this week?" And the card which was pulled is III Empress: Kuan Yin. From the Guidebook:
"Beautiful Kuan Yin gently yet powerfully invites you to open to the pure stream of love and compassion that is always available. Her invitation is to yield your heart fully, that you may receive Her full blessing and in return bless others. The beauty of Her soft pervasive essence reminds you that sometimes passive power is called for, and to offer mercy and gentleness to those in your life. She exemplifies the feminine principle and the effectiveness of subtle power."
Yesterday I counselled someone to take some quiet steps to protect her Self and her heart from some trials that are going on in her life. I was guided to let her know that she doesn't have to make a big deal or scene, rather just quietly go and handle her business. And today I pick Kuan Yin. Synchronicity at its best...
We are being guided to gentle power. To go within and seek the essence of Kuan Yin to empower us and allow our quiet strength to shine through. Seek your solutions through your Inner Knowing and allow that to guide your actions. Know that your actions don't need to be "power plays" to be powerful. Gentle strength is what is needed now.
Kuan Yin also shows us endurance and perseverance through Her vow to stay on Earth until every creature alive has attained enlightenment (from the Guidebook, p. 34). If we have but a bit of Her perserverance, than all that we desired to accomplish would come to fruition. Kuan Yin is showing us by Her example to press on for as long as it may take to reach our ultimate goal. Enlightenment... So press on when the going gets tough. As the saying goes:
When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
Be tough. Persevere. Kuan Yin has persevered in Her quest to stay present until all reach enlightenment. That's going to take a long long time to happen, yet this is Kuan Yin's goal and She remains steadfast to Her dream. We are to take a lesson our of Kuan Yin's playbook and do the same. In doing so, we receive all of the blessings ascribed to us and pay it forward by blessing others. We bless others simply by successfully accomplishing that which we were called to cause and create in this world...
