    I know that it's quite the interests, but the spirits are loud today. The spirits are loud today, y'all welcome back to the weekly word, I'm gonna give it to you the way it's coming to me. But what I'm feeling and hearing from the spirits is basically, maybe let's sit down and let us learn you something, let us learn you something. In other words, there is a very heavy presence of unseen assistance of our spirits, wanting to help us understand some things, from their perspective on the other side, to help usher us into where we're going, where we're headed. I am, who I am looking at the death card reversed, the three of cups reversed, and the page of cups reversed. Now, what's coming up for me immediately anytime I see death, right, we already know that the death card speaks to us about rebirth, the death car speaks to us about releasing so that we can begin receiving, we're talking about moving from one stage of life to the next or one experience of ourselves and being transformed into something new. When this card is in this reverse is speaking to us about our resistance to that change, our resistance to that transformation is talking about the ways in which we hold on to that which has been that which has existed, that which is comfortable, instead of trusting the divine to lead us to where we need to be to where we must be leading us to the destiny that we are actually hoping for praying for what we feel deep on the inside is calling to us. This speaks of resistance to that. And what's interesting is that these things are closely tied to our emotions and our spiritual elevation. Because we have the cups here, which we're talking about the three of cups reversed, and the page of cups reversed. And so we know that the cups represent the element of water. And that is why this this heavy

    was the word I'm looking for focus on the spiritual and the emotional is present in this spread tonight. And so what is coming through specifically with this three of cups and reverse like yes, you know, it can be speaking to us about three being a crown, but when I really feel like is in our haste to move beyond that which is necessary, the death, the ending of things in our haste to move on, we actually miss out on the connection that's necessary, before we move on to the next part of our lives. In that whatever it is that is required of us to go through. If we skip it, we risk miss, we risk disconnection from ourselves, we risk disconnection from my spirits from our ancestors. And so what happens is, death is actually a place of initiation. And in the midst of that, that time of being in the void in the darkness, in that season, of ridding yourself of what you knew. That is when we are plugged into the divine in a way that we had never been connected before. And so we miss it if we skip it. And so what I'm feeling very strongly is, it is necessary for us to receive that connection to the divine specifically to our, our lineage, to the teachers to the wise ones. Because they are giving us keys, they are helping us to understand ourselves, and also they're helping us when we're talking about being initiated into mysteries. We're talking about learning the tools that are necessary so that we can excel so that we can elevate so that we can dive deeper on our road ahead, so that we can be prepared for what is to come so that we can also walk in that power. And so what it is that we are hoping for that is coming in the future, we must first gather our tools and make ready. And that happens in the stage of death is not an easy thing. Rebirth, transformation, those can be painful processes. But if we skip it, we may miss something vital for our path and our destiny. And so we can't distract ourselves THREE OF CUPS reverse, we can't distract ourselves with a good time. We can't distract ourselves with busyness and noise from other people from other things from other tasks. From other pleasantries, we can't distract ourselves, we have to return we have to go back to the place

    we have to trust our debt folk. We have to trust the Lord. We have to trust that the universe is not going to allow us to go down into the depths of the earth and not bring us back up.

    We have to trust that if we go into the tool like Jesus did, that in three days, they will roll away the stone.

    And so we have this page of cups here. Another page of cups, especially when it's in reverse because it speaks to me about our inner children. This speaks to us to me about the little ones and the younger ones, the inexperienced ones who live within us the previous versions of ourselves and anytime this card is present. For me, it's asking for us to love them and to listen to them. Because as the Spirit said, earlier, we go let me learn your something. They want to teach us their wisdom. And I believe that they also want us to tune into our younger selves. Because they can teach us a thing or two about how we should better navigate the road ahead. We really can learn from our missteps. If we give unadulterated and radical grace to our previous versions of ourselves, if we would truly accept who we have been that brought us to this point in time. If we would allow our younger versions to be teachers as well.

    What might you learn from the 12 year old version of you? What lessons are they teaching you? What wisdom do they have to share? What might you learn from seven year old you? What secrets do you think they might share with you if you took some time to listen? If you gave them full attention what might 20 Zero you say? If you sat before them, or better yet sat at their feet and ask them to explain something that you may need a clearer understanding of now. How might you have told yourself that at 20

    So, when we talk about moving through death, moving through the shedding

    we are only speaking of removing that which you do not need moving forward. What you do need and what you do treasure is every version of you that has ever lived thus far, because you would not be the you you are today without them. It is the same reason why we venerate our ancestors, because we wouldn't have be here now, without them.

    In so if you are resisting a transformative change because it's difficult. The spirits are here to say. They want to be remembered for all of the sacrifices they have made for all the things they have done to bring us here. And because of those things, we can trust that they'll be with us now. They will we go through the ebbs and flow of life, we do not go alone, they are with us. And they are wanting whatever you're going through now, whatever your death season looks like, whatever your death moment looks like to know that it is an initiation, the purpose is to bring you into more of yourself to to bring you out of a reality that doesn't fit you anymore. And birth you so that you rebirth you so that you can be in place to continue to run on your destiny. They have keys to give you and they don't want you to be distracted by that by other things. Focus on this because on the other side is harmony and unity and love.

    There is power and there is agency. So who are going to be your teachers? Who's going to be your gentle guide as you go through this next phase? Will it be your your your spirits, your elevator ones? Will it be God themselves? Will it be all your past versions? Will it be a mentor, a teacher a coach, a therapist, a partner trusted friends

    know that you're not alone. Now that you're not alone your spirits are with you even in the darkest day. And when you come out into your brighter tomorrow, you will be welcomed. You will have been initiated you will begin to understand things in a new way. And the cloud of witnesses will be there to welcome you to the new path along your journey. Shay I hope you have a wonderful week. Bye bye
