The Clearing
The air here is crisp and invigorating, filled with the subtle fragrance of blooming wildflowers and the earthy scent of freshly cut grass. Soft beams of sunlight filter through the canopy of leaves above, casting a warm, golden glow that enhances the tranquil atmosphere.
As you wander through the serene clearing, you come across a beautifully carved trunk placed centrally within the sunlit space. The trunk is adorned with intricate patterns that seem to shimmer and dance in the sunlight.
You decide to open the trunk.
Opening the trunk reveals two elegant cards resting inside, each one waiting for your choice. The vibrant, fiery red card and the soothing, tranquil blue card offer distinct paths for your journey, reflecting the essence of the clearing’s serene and inviting energy.
You look down at the cards and see the faces of people you have loved, trusted, or who have been important in your life. The red card features a warm, familiar face, and the blue card displays a calm, reassuring smile.
PAUSE AND WRITE.
Write down the names of the people you see on each card. (Avoid overthinking; go with the first.)
Consider what advice you feel each person might offer you at this moment in your life regarding your question.
Then, you hear the faces speak:
• Red Card: The face on the red card smiles warmly and says, “You have always had the strength to overcome challenges. Trust in your abilities and take bold steps forward. You are capable of achieving great things.”
• Blue Card: The face on the blue card gazes at you with a gentle, reassuring look, saying, “Remember that you are deeply valued and loved. Embrace the calm and clarity within you. You are on the right path, and peace will guide you through.”
