Hello and welcome.
I'm Candy Foster.
I'm a channel and an intuitive.
And I pull a card for the collective each day.
Each month I choose a different deck.
This month we're using the Shaman's Dream Oracle.
By Alberto Villaldo and Colette Barron-Reed.
This month we are at the peak of the Lionsgate portal,
And we've been working through this four-month portal,
But right now is where we're in the biggest part of that energy.
This stays open through next month through September.
So we've been progressing along the way.
So I hope you've been following and having a good time.
And enjoying the energy.
Today the sun is in Leo.
The moon moves into Capricorn.
Bringing us an energy of discipline and commitment.
Bringing structure to our dreams,
Honoring our long-term vision.
It's also a day that is really good for some mental rest.
Our card today is card number 29.
Horned cactus.
Blooming through resilience,
Resourcefulness,
Discovery.
When nothing seems to be happening fast enough or your ideas have dried up.
You begin to question your relevance.
During these periods in life,
You might feel like giving up.
Frustrated,
And resentful.
That success will never happen for you.
The issue here,
However,
Is a matter of perception.
The horned cactus thrives in a barren desertscape.
Offering you the gift of water.
When all appears to be dry.
If you look at its body.
You see the natural thorns that protect it from predators and the elements.
What you don't see are the deep roots that expand far into the earth.
Filling it with a continuous flow of water.
This succulent is a symbol of resilience,
Of resourcefulness.
Of your needs being met in spite of appearances to the contrary.
It's a reminder of the courage and inherent wisdom needed to dig deep below the less-than-friendly surface that hides the rich underground world.
Can you connect to this magical truth and trust?
The desert is a mystical place filled with mysterious creatures beautifully adapted to their environment.
The horned cactus tells you to take heart.
This journey is only temporary,
And you will soon be met with greener pastures.
But first,
You must acknowledge your inner strength and fortitude,
As you're tested here.
Be as the cactus,
Resilient and resourceful.
