Earth Magic – Inner Stillpoint

 

Earth Magic Oracle cards, conceived of by Steven D. Farmer, are wonderful. After last night’s Coven Conversations, I realized I hadn’t looked at them in a while. I used to devote Sundays to Earth Magic, but I haven’t done that lately. Earth Magic Oracle cards are about the inner work we do. They’re about our immanence with both the Earth and Source Energy, and bring a wonderful resonance and influence.

Always prescient, the spread begins with the Meadow, expressing our vulnerability. Awakening the divinity within takes a certain amount of vulnerability and allowing, nonresistant to the chaos surrounding us. We need not participate in that. We don’t belong there. As witches, we have led our lives in secret, always vulnerable to the judgment of others. Living our truth requires risk, and therefore requires us to be vulnerable. It’s that very vulnerability that makes us the Priestesses that we are.

The stillness of the Lake further suggests an awareness of our inner stillpoint as a way through the chaos of the world around us. Notice, but don’t engage. Be aware, yet removed. Observe rather than absorb the energy around you. Extend your own creative force, rather than reacting to others. Begin from that stillpoint within.

I love the Full Moon. My preference is for the Dark Moon, but with a Full Moon I don’t need a flashlight, so there’s that. This card signifies completion. But rather than an ending, I see it as well as the beginning of something new. The Full Moon indicates more. More of everything. The brightest of possibilities ahead.

So risk your vulnerability. Risk it all. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain, remembering that WE decide our outcome, no one else. Live your truth. Scream it if you feel you must, but then return to that inner stillpoint. It’s where you begin. It’s from there that everything of you flows. Our divinity within.
