Haunted House

unsettled issues, a need to let go or clean house

The things that haunt you are the things you have yet to let go of.

Your higher self chose this card because a person or situation from your past is preventing you from experiencing the bliss that is waiting for you once you clear this energy from your orbit. You might see the energy of this card manifest in an ex who continues to come back into your life whenever it’s convenient for them to do so. Perhaps you are loyal to a friend who is not loyal to you in return, and despite how many times you have been burned you continue to support them when they call. You might be staying with an employer who doesn’t value you and your ideas, so you feel as though your talent is being overlooked and wasted.

Choosing to let go of what brings you pain is a critical form of self-care. Haunted house prompts you to examine the people and areas of your life that make you feel trapped, afraid, abandoned, hurt and confused. These situations may trigger something within you, and when you are blended with these emotional bombs you may be blinded to the exit. The door might’ve been right in front of you the entire time but you’re experiencing an illusion that has led you to believe there’s no escape. It may be you have taken on the role of healer and believe it’s your job to change the actions of others. It is not! Your responsibility is to your own healing and well-being.

Even though it may be painful, taking steps to set boundaries with others provides a healing pathway for them as well. By letting go you are choosing not to enable their behaviors and are shining a light on their shadows. You very well could be the healer after all simply by taking steps to heal yourself.
