Today’s Focus Friday Card was pulled from the Self-Love Oracle Deck by Akal Pritam.
Card #8: Ritual: Body Worship: Sacral Chakra
Short Message: A Clear mind sees beauty and potential
Message: Going deeper into a meditative practice designed to clear negative self-image programs out of the mind would be very beneficial now. When the mind is clear, you can see your true beauty and real potential.
Your body is amazing, wonderful, a miracle. Can you truly appreciate it? Worshipping your body is not fantasizing or focusing on your body image - to worship your body is to understand you are pure divinity, inseparable from the miracle of life. When you see your body as an incredible, sacred creation - a wonderland - you will cultivating reverence for it and seeing it as a miracle of the whole of you: Your holiness, your grace, your sovereignty.
With reverence for your body, you nurture and nourish it; you listen and take great care and pride in your total wellbeing. You will understand that it is your responsibility to have command over your mind so that energy flows freely through your body. Meditate upon your true Self and understand how saintly you are.
Suggested practice: Using pen and paper, describe your grace and your beauty in a way that is heart-centered and honest. Don’t forget any aspect Write until there is truly nothing else to say. ??Write yourself 11 heartfelt compliments. According to tantric numerology, 11 is a powerful number for facilitating transformation. ??Make a pledge to strengthen your nervous system, your heart and your whole physical body. Be clear about which areas of your body could be improved with some focus and refinement through movement, healthy nourishment, self-care practices and cleansing.
Project into the next year and make a promise to attend to one vital aspect of your body each season. Write 22 things you are grateful to your body for - past, present, and future. 22 is a powerful master builder number that can make dreams real.
Jenny’s Message/Exercise: What a beautiful card to compliment the full moon this weekend in Leo. What limiting thoughts and beliefs about your body and/or mind are you ready to release? The suggested practices above will have you focusing on gratitude for you as you are, which is a powerful practice for releasing old, antiquated beliefs.
So many times the only time we DO focus on our bodies is when it is presenting with pain or discomfort. Yet, our bodies are miraculous, running many systems for us daily without us having to pay any attention. The last year my body has presented with many things that had me looking closer at it and truly diving into how I can support it instead of expecting it to always support me. I went Cheagan (Cheating Vegan - about 95% Vegan and gluten free - but I honor my body and if I truly want something with a little cheese in it - so-be-it! LOL ), I am on day 764 of daily meditation and am consistently asking myself how I can better show up for my body. I am 53, turning 54 this year, and would love to be around a lot longer, with a healthy mind, body and spirit.

??The last month in my women’s circle we have been diving into gratitude for the body, so it is a recurring topic and one I feel we can all use some love with. We are not taught to honor our body and mind but usually are instead very critical, comparing ourselves to others, focusing on what we wish or want better but not diving deeply into the gratitude for US exactly as we are. ??I love the above exercises and also offer a 7 day Free Reawakening Self-Love through the Chakras Class in my free community which ends with a guided meditation for your whole body. I will include the link below. I also offer Akashic Readings/clearings if you need to get clearer on the exact subconscious beliefs you may be holding onto and are ready to release them. I will include that link in below as well for you to explore, if interested. I would welcome this work with you! ??
Exercise: I love the above suggested practices. Along with the Full Moon this weekend I would ask you write a list of limiting beliefs about your mind, body and soul on little slips of papers and burn them in a fire (safely). Or you can get twigs, blow the limiting belief into the stick and burn those. It is a beautiful shamanic energy tradition to truly release those thoughts you may have clung to and are ready to be released.
??As a Leo, I am soooo excited for this Full Moon. I have so much coming up that I am thrilled to be announcing soon and am also ready to release any discomfort around the stepping up I am asking myself to do, out of my comfort zone.
Please be extra loving and supportive with yourself. Give yourself some extra self care and love this weekend. I am sending much love and full moon blessings your way!
