Embracing Differences with the Devil Card
Dear Mer-Moon Muser,
Today I am channeling The Devil Mermaid from my upcoming Siren Song Tarot even though my energy is still low after selling my Wood Kitty Art at a Memorial Day art fair in Idyllwild, a lovely small, artsy mountain town in Southerth California near my home. Dogwoods flowered nearby amidst towering Ponderosa Pines, rocky peaks and small seasonal creeks and waterfalls; it smelled delightful!
But, back to the Devil Mermaid and into the dark shadows and murky waters.
As I dive deep into my own Shadow Material 'down to the heart's chambers', I drop the mask...
to embrace difference,
to love my demon.
Then to sleep a 1000 sleeps
Dreamless
as I sink slowly
to the bottom of the lake
I am the Mermaid's Gift.
In this telling I share hope and acceptance. May we all find more of this in our heart's deepest chambers.
Compassion comes through in all my soul readings which I offer as audio recordings based upon your specific questions and issues.
