Today, starting off the reading the energy felt very dense. Heavy, tired, stomach swirling – like walking through 4 feet of snow. 

I was guided to do this reading a little differently than I usually do, to start with the Rumi Oracle. 

Cosmic Heart came out, and spirit is telling me to write out a bit from the oracle book for you:

8. COSMIC HEART

I was dead, I became alive. 

I was tears, I became laughter. 

The power of love arrived and made me everlasting power!

I have seen everything. 

I have no fear. 

I have the heart of a lion!

I shine like Venus.

-Rumi

I hear it and weep. In sublime reverence, I bow to this living, beating, loving heart of the universe. It echoes through all of creation. Once, some time ago, I was deaf. I had not heard one true sound. Much noise, but no truth. So I believed in many things not worth believing in. 

Then in a moment of my crisis that cracked my heart open, I was given a gift. Though I felt fear and confusion, a gift came to me, more powerful than those temporary ailments. That gift was the ability to hear the sound hidden beneath all of life. I heard it, that sacred sound of the beating heart of universal love. Now I know that belief in unworthy things – like fear and doubt – is lunacy. Even my loneliness became unconvincing to me. 

We are animated by this living heartbeat, part of life that is sustained by it. You and I, the planets, the birds and the fishes, emerge from the great source because of this beating heart of the universe. It pumps life through our veins! What proof of this is needed? You live. That is the proof. I hear it everywhere now. It has become so loud! Louder than any word of fear. It resonates through my soul and eclipses any tremor of anxiety. 

There is a time on the journey of love when the beloved (that would be you and me, sweet soul) is prepared to engage more completely with the heart of the divine lover. The preparation will be a rich process, spiritually speaking. It may also feel like being beaten, pummelled, simmered and stirred in the pot of the divine master chef to become a sacred and savory meal fit for the most heavenly of feasts. This is a courageous and bold process, one that will create the most delicious aromas in the soul. And yet it is one that will likely take us right to the places we would rather avoid, places of confrontation with pain, but where the loss of its grip on our being no longer lets us quake and retreat from life in fear or uncertainty. 

You have been through these tantalizing trials – the push to surrender fear, the realization your attempts at control amount to not so much, actually – so why not abandon them altogether? The trials have asked you to confront every part of your being that holds itself back in resistance to what is, in resistance to what life presents at this very moment. You have been asked to become comfortable with the possible discomfort of not knowing, and to understand you don’t have to understand anything for life to work out with perfect synchronicity and generous grace. You have been asked to bear darkness without losing hope for the return of the light. You have been asked to trust in your own heart wisdom when your mind was terrorized by nightmares and hallucinations of fear.

They were so powerful you were certain they must be real, that you must be crazy not to run and hide, somehow, somewhere! 

And yet, here you are – still loving, still wise – and ready for a love bigger than you have ever experienced before.

This oracle comes with special guidance for you. More love is rushing towards you like a great cosmic tsunami. You will struggle with this blessing to the extent that you will attempt to hold onto what has been. So Don’t. Let go. Let it move you. You’ll perhaps get some water up your nose, but nothing will come to you that you cannot handle. You’ll be disheveled somewhat, undoubtedly; yet as you are washed up upon love’s shining shore, keeping every hair in place will be the last thing on your mind. You’ll be caught up in the wonder of perfection, realizing how deeply loved you are and how unnecessary it is to contrive a way to live your purpose. Instead, you’ll have no idea what is going on. You’ll surrendered in passionate embrace with life simply being your exquisite, crazy, unique self, saturated with divine love. It will drip out of your feet, your eyes, your voice, your touch. You’ll water the Earth with love’s oceanic presence. Oh, how that tsunami will deliver you into your divine destiny! No need for any contrivance; let your hair get messed up. Your destiny awaits you now! 

What a lovely message from spirit, filled with so much love for you. You have been on quite the journey, a spiritual journey I feel. But it felt like climbing a mountain with tiers – I just pictured a pyramid actually, all of the steps leading to the top, but each step is very pronounced, and at each step – a pause. 

You are nearing the top, the last stretch of road always feels the longest. It’s that part where we are tired from the journey, I heard “are we there yet?” You may have been on this journey for some time and you have done so much work on yourself, I just felt a very strong wave of emotion – actually it is making me quite emotional. I feel like I want to c…and there are the tears. It was not a sad emotion though it was an emotion of love, being proud of you for overcoming, for persisting, for continuing to push on despite everything happening in and around you. So proud. So supported. I heard “do you believe in magic?” 

From the Moonology Oracle Deck, “The answers you need are coming”, “You and your loved ones are safe” and “Don’t let your past hold you back”. 

I feel as though you are or soon will be on that second last tier – the step before the top. Spirit wants you to know they have been and will continue to be there every step of the way supporting you. To get to the top, you are going to need a little boost from the divine – and that is exactly what you will be getting, what is coming your way! The boost you need, exactly what you need – at the exact time – out of the blue – fall into your lap – OMG this is crazy – kind of boost. 

The kind that just allows you let go of any fears or doubts you had in your mind about anything. All those wonderings *poof* it just all makes sense now. Because with that boost, you get to that top step. You can now see the path behind you – and how it all had to happen as it did for your highest good. You can also see the path forward now, something you haven’t seen in a very long time, perhaps you thought it didn’t even exist – you can’t see the other side of the mountain while trekking up – only at the top is it all apparent. Only at that point will you be able to see the bigger picture. 

You are safe, you are loved, and it really feels like spirit cannot wait to give you that boost. Divine timing is at play. I opened my Instant Magic Oracle book for a final message:

“Trust in the divine timing of everything. Delays, obstacles, hold-ups and detours might be happening for a reason.” 

Wow. For those who don’t know, I pull cards and get clarifications as I am writing this out. So this message as a whole, gets written out bit by bit, along the way. I’ll pull some cards, write, clarify, write again and so on. The last thing I heard was ‘Divine Timing’ and then to open the book to that page was just a massive confirmation and brought such a smile to my face.

I’ve mentioned before in other readings, that the lesson of divine timing, surrendering control – is a tough lesson, and one that I resonate with very strongly.

But we always find the light do we not? Even the times we may fall into that fear, doubt or despair energy – we all have our days – but we bring ourselves out. You chose love, you chose peace, you chose to see, feel, acknowledge and release that energy. Because those feelings are a part of this journey on Earth, and through understanding this and loving ourselves we can allow ourselves to experience and release. To ebb and flow with the tides of life. This is no small feat, and that is why spirit is so proud of you. 

Where you see your fear and doubt they see your strength and courage. You are divinely guided and protected – and soon you will know this – without a doubt. 

Remember who you are.
