Appreciating what’s already here, and exploring The New

This week, for a change, (and because it occurred to me to do it!) I chose cards corresponding to today’s date: card numbers 16, 03, and 25 (16 March 2025).

Please see below for the card images and audio.

In this week’s reading there are several themes:

  • A calling of the soul to something special or important
  • Self-sovereignty
  • Appreciating and enjoying the ‘beauty’ that is right here, right now
  • New beginnings, new explorations
  • Birth of a new era (and a new world?!)
  • Steering the ship we are travelling in (in the direction we desire to go)

AUDIO:

Card one: 016 The Call

Card two: 003 Right Here

Card three: 025 Beginning Exploration

Further Thoughts:

Audio below (if you’d rather listen than read):

What can I say?! For me, I think these are three rather intriguing cards this week. I am eager to see what unfolds and how the themes that were suggested to me might play out. šŸ˜€

As an aside, last week’s reading spoke of clutter clearing as one possibility. I totally forgot all about that. But remembered, after I had done some major sorting, clearing and cleaning this past week – in areas that had been bugging me, not just for months, but for years!

Books are the hardest things for me to get rid of (book-lover that I am) but I filled two massive sacks for the charity shop.

I also cleared out the food cupboards – and date-labelled all tins and packets so I know which need using first. If there was some kind of siege or food shortage, I would probably be okay for a good year . . . or more!

So perhaps, having done some major space clearing, and having released the old, it’s now time for The New to come in, whatever that might be.

As I say, it’s intriguing (and a little exciting, I’m feeling) to see exactly how the cards might relate to the unfolding week.

I wonder what is bubbling up and exactly what this ‘new’ is?

And, whether it’s something on a personal level, or whether it’s something that affects everyone on a global level? I get a sense that it might be both, but time will tell.


The background music to this week’s audio is:

Emotional flow into onenessā€™ from the album Emotional Flow by Thaddeus, on the OrinDaBen website. (Tracks can be purchased individually, or listen to a sample of the album on the website for free.)

And in COMPLETE CONTRAST to that music(!) the artist of the song I was trying to remember in the audio is, ‘Right Here, Right Now,’ by Fatboy Slim.

If inclined, you can watch the Fatboy Slim YouTube video here.


Interestingly, the Fatboy Slim video is based on evolution, or evolvement, which is (I believe) what we are all particularly going through NOW! There is so much change in the air.

And whether or not it appears to be so, I also believe these changes are (ultimately) positive.

The music of this Fatboy Slim song sounds, to me, quite ‘epic’ and dramatic – and even, exciting. Another reflection of these changing times.

So, in concIusion, I believe we are all entering exciting times of transformation and that the trick is to go with the flow and let it be easy.

In other words, don’t try to resist or fight against change. Bend like the willow! And, most important, do what you need to do, for you, to feel okay.

Wishing you a wonderful week!
