58. TOTAL BLISS

INNER CHILD. PLAYFULNESS. IMAGINATIVE JOURNEY. RETURNING TO SOURCE. NOSTALGIC RELEASE.

It is now time to receive. I am cultivating more playful moments each day.

For those of us who have been lucky enough to spend time with the ocean, we may have fond memories of playing in its shores and luxuriating in its waters. Deep within our memory banks are preserved chapters in time. We may catch glimpses of these through nostalgic moments that suddenly return to us, when a familiar seascape or tender feeling is activated. Yearning, dreaming, and fantasizing may push us to lean into these moments once again, which is truly part of the beauty of what makes us human. We are sentimental creatures, and time is but one portal for our heart to travel through.

Perhaps you have memories from childhood that still call out, filling you with a longing to return to another time and place. You are being reminded of the past, as this tenderness comes at an auspicious time. This is a card of blissful release. It marks a new phase to rejoice and relax, when you are called to let go of the strains and pressures of being an adult.

Total Bliss comes as a sign of encouragement that you can now set the groundwork for some newfound fun. Let your imagination be wild and free. Dance, play, run, climb - do something that allows your deepest joy to shine through.

When we carve out time for our inner child, we may notice an increase in our vitality, which enables us to access more creative inspiration and complex problem-solving. We can overcome the patterns and negative self-talk which keep us small, and slowly soothe the shadows of our past experiences. Often, perfectionism, overworking ourselves, and burnout can be signs of needing to heal our inner child in some way, if we are often feeling the need to prove ourselves. Take a moment and see where you may need some tender loving care. What pastimes from your childhood did you most enjoy? Reconnect with laughter, and the passions you once held. Let yourself be messy and free!

How can I celebrate my inner child more?
