Alyson’s 4/22 Tarot：更新者 Regenerator (24-57)

Alyson’s 4/22 Tarot：更新者 Regenerator (24-57) 問題：我4/21的未來日記主題 抽牌：更新者 Regenerator 今天中午參加了一場喜宴。 對於這兩週來的辛苦，身體升起了防衛機制。 早上很晚才醒過來，原本想去聽的簡報分享，就錯過了，很可惜。 昨晚有在心裡頭對今天的行程做了簡單的描繪和想像。 腦海中有浮現開車到喜宴餐廳的位置，但沒有細想，沒有想像到停車的情況，結果今天抵達餐廳時被告知四個停車場皆沒有停車位了。 對於早上的簡報分享是沒有進行任何想像。 昨晚應該潛意識就已經做好了決定，所以今早也就沒有早點起床的動力。 喜宴上，同桌的有一位長者，年屆八十歲。 她說，她是自己搭乘計程車前來喝喜酒的。 她分享了人生的知識與經歷 ~ 人生莫計較太多，身體健康是第一，後面的許多”零”才有意義。 要記得自己擁有的幸運，並珍惜老天的眷顧。 有能力付出，不要吝嗇。 夫妻相處要有共同興趣，夫妻，是老來伴。 父母對已婚孩子的事情要懂得放手，不過問太多，因陪孩子到老的是他的另一半。 朋友之間千萬別有金錢往來和利益關係。 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/147442924 老人家在桃園一家關懷照顧植物人基金會擔任志工長達二十三年。 她看多很多人生故事。 她說，最近發生一件事情讓她很是難過，也曾經很生氣，甚至懷疑老天。 她分享，有一位志工，跟她一樣在那基金會服務多年，人很好，很付出，很努力。 但，有一天，這位志工朋友她都沒有再遇到過。 她也沒想太多，以為是有事情要忙，或者是值班時間錯開，所以才沒再看過。 直到有一天，基金會工作人員告知說等一下需要接收一位新的植物人患者。 當工作人員一邊說的時候，神情難過，眼眶紅。 沒想到，新的植物人患者就是那位志工朋友。 老人家說，這讓她懷疑了善良、付出自己，怎會落得這樣的結果。 老人家依然一邊做著志工工作，一邊思考這個問題。 直到她把這問題內觀到自己的身上。 她想到，曾經被醫生宣告粉碎性骨折，無法再站起來行走的她，現在雙腿有力且活動自如。 這就是老天對一直付出的她給予的回饋與呵護。 「更新者」這張塔羅牌，告訴我們 ~ 作為一位更新者及恢復者，在情感上是有豐富創造力，就像是滋潤生命的及時雨，豐富與灌溉著土地。 今日的喜宴上，當主持人請新郎給予新娘的父母承諾會好好照顧他們的女兒，會跟新娘攜手一輩子好好過的時候，我含著淚，坐在附近的新郎同事朋友們也都哭了。 最可愛的是新郎的雙胞胎姊姊，哭得唏哩嘩啦得，完全沒有在顧及臉上精緻的妝容。 這是一場很有愛的婚禮。 很榮幸被邀請。 很高興有前去。 「更新者」可以創造新的情感生活和生命力。 「更新者」是個治療者，像是不停冒出泡的湧泉水，洗滌著交流的心靈，平撫傷痛和被困擾，糾結著的心。 今天，我和哥哥很幸運，有緣分認識那位老人家，幸運地能聽到她的人生經歷與分享。 喜宴結束後，我們詢問老人家居住的地點，並邀請她搭乘我的車子，我開車，和哥哥一起送她回家。 因為今天的愛能量流動得很強勁，讓我很放鬆，心也被這麼多的愛給溫暖，結束喜宴回到家後，整個人疲倦，也就陷入休息睡眠狀態。 這兩週來的疲憊，經過這兩天的熟睡，消散不少，真好。 Alyson's 4/22 Tarot: The Regenerator (24-57) Question: Theme of my 4/21 journal entry Card drawn: Regenerator Today I attended a wedding banquet at noon. After the hard work of the past two weeks, my body has initiated a defense mechanism. I woke up late in the morning and missed the presentation I intended to attend, which was a pity. Last night, I briefly depicted and imagined today's schedule in my mind. There was a vague image of driving to the wedding banquet venue in my mind, but I didn't think it through, didn't imagine the parking situation, and as a result, when I arrived at the restaurant, I was informed that all four parking lots were full. I didn't engage in any imagination about the morning presentation. Subconsciously, I must have already made a decision last night, so I didn't have the motivation to wake up early this morning. At the wedding banquet, there was an elderly lady sitting at my table, eighty years old. She said she had come to the wedding banquet by taking a taxi. She shared her knowledge and experiences in life~ In life, don't worry too much, health is the most important, the many "zeros" behind only have meaning then. Remember the luck one possesses and cherish the blessings from above. If capable, do not hesitate to give. For a couple to get along, they must have common interests, for spouses are companions in old age. Parents should learn to let go of their married children's affairs, avoid asking too much, because the one accompanying the child to old age is their spouse. Never let money transactions and self-interest come between friends. The old lady has been volunteering for the Vegetative Care Foundation in Taoyuan for twenty-three years. She has seen many life stories. She said, something happened recently that made her very sad, even angry, and she even doubted the heavens. She shared that there was a volunteer, like her, who had served at the foundation for many years, a good person, very dedicated and hardworking. But one day, she never saw this volunteer friend again. She didn't think much of it, thinking the friend must be busy or their duty hours conflicted, so she didn't see them again. Until one day, the foundation staff informed her that they needed to receive a new vegetative patient later. As the staff spoke, they looked sad, their eyes red. Unexpectedly, the new vegetative patient was that volunteer friend. The old lady said this made her doubt kindness, selflessness, how could it lead to such a result? Yet, she continued her volunteer work while contemplating this question. Until she introspected on this question within herself. She thought of herself, who had been declared with a comminuted fracture by the doctor, unable to stand and walk, but now her legs are strong and agile. This is the reward and care from heaven for her continuous dedication. The Tarot card "Regenerator" tells us ~ As a regenerator and healer, there is abundant creativity emotionally, like timely rain nourishing and irrigating the land. At today's wedding banquet, when the host asked the groom to promise to take good care of the bride's parents and to live a good life with the bride, I sat nearby with tears in my eyes, and the groom's colleagues and friends also cried. The most adorable was the groom's twin sister, crying uncontrollably, completely disregarding the delicate makeup on her face. This was a wedding filled with love. I was honored to be invited. I was glad I went. "Regenerator" can create new emotional life and vitality. "Regenerator" is a healer, like bubbling spring water continuously cleansing the soul of communication, soothing pain and resolving the entangled heart. Today, my brother and I were lucky to meet that old lady, fortunate to hear her life experiences and sharing. After the wedding banquet, we asked where the old lady lived and invited her to ride in my car. I drove, and my brother and I sent her home together. Because the energy of love today flowed so strongly, I felt very relaxed, my heart warmed by so much love. After returning home from the banquet, I was exhausted and fell into a state of restful sleep. The exhaustion of the past two weeks, after two days of deep sleep, dissipated quite a bit, which was wonderful. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYurSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Regenerator

Alyson’s 3/08 Tarot：恐懼 Fear

Alyson’s 3/08 Tarot：恐懼 Fear 問題：一個起步的機會，是否承接。 抽牌：聖杯7 恐懼 Fear 閱讀： 噁心的黑暗，空氣很是稀薄。 很想躲起來，卻已無歸處。 聞不到安心的味道，聽不到安撫的聲音。 是被遺忘了？還是被遺棄了？ 天，何時會亮？ 光，何時會來？ 到底，是要走進恐懼裡，還是要走出光？ 深思後的心情不是興奮，是害怕，擔心。 我，還有過往的能力嗎？ 我，還能像過去那樣強嗎？ 這是從來沒有過的經驗，該怎麼辦？ 怕表現不如人意，怕結果不順利，該怎麼辦？ 經過兩三天的考慮，心中是一陣陣的慌亂，該怎麼辦？ 看見花兒的綻放，聽見鳥兒的歌唱， 聽完好幾次的”大夢”，大哭了幾場。 “恐懼”牌卡說，將害怕轉化為紅色有勁的能量，要成長，就要走進恐懼裡，去感受，去學習，去曉得該怎麼辦。 恐懼的另一面，就是”財富”。 Question: Will you embrace an opportunity to start? Card Drawn: Seven of Cups - Fear Reading: A nauseating darkness, the air thin. Yearning to hide, yet nowhere to go. No scent of peace, no soothing sound. Forgotten? Abandoned? When will the day break? When will the light come? Should one delve into the fear, or step towards the light? After deep contemplation, the feeling isn't excitement, it's fear, worry. Do I still possess my past abilities? Can I still be as strong as before? This is an unprecedented experience, what should one do? Fear of underperforming, fear of unfavorable outcomes, what should one do? After two or three days of consideration, the mind is in turmoil, what should one do? Seeing the blossoming of flowers, hearing the birds' songs, After listening to "Dream Big" several times, crying profusely. The "Fear" card says, transform fear into potent red energy, to grow, one must step into fear, to feel, to learn, to understand what to do. The flip side of fear is "wealth." #DreamCatcher #Tarot #Tarotreader #Tarotcards #Fear #Cups #Dream #Alyson #塔羅 #捕夢人 #恐懼 #聖杯 #情緒

Alyson’s 4/08 Tarot：宇宙 Universe (10-57)

Alyson’s 4/08 Tarot：宇宙 Universe (10-57) 問題：我4/07的未來日記主題 抽牌：宇宙 Universe 再次驗證了塔羅的神奇。 在10天前計畫將塔羅抽牌與撰寫未來日記兩者結合在一起。 那天晚上呼喊宇宙，請宇宙指引未來四週的每週主題。 接著抽出每個主題各七天的副題。 昨天寫著第二週的主題是「死亡Death」時，我還未發覺。 直到剛剛，看了之前塔羅抽牌紀錄，看到今天的副題是「宇宙Universe」，我的心情再度激動，又想流淚哭泣了。 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145838932 今天我們一群朋友去探望一位已遠去的朋友。 在今年的三月中旬我們才知道他已離去許久。 陸陸續續我們討論著要去看他，大家橋著可以一同前往的日期，今日。 我還是像過往一樣，工作的事情與私人的事情，思緒是分開，沒有連結在一起。 其實這是個很難說明清楚的狀態。 明明，兩個面向是共用同一顆腦袋，同一個人的思緒，和在同一個行事曆角逐著各自可以佔有的比例。 對我來說，兩者之間能有機會串連在一起也就只有敲時間，橋行事曆上的空白處而已。 所以，在這稍早之前，我從未注意到今日塔羅的牌卡，與今日的私人行程連在起來。 今天早上，我並沒有時間去想，去寫今日的「未來日記」。 除了急著出門以外，最主要的是我沒有那份心情。 我不敢想像朋友長眠所在的樹葬地方情景，也不知道自己會是怎樣的心情。 我只記得包包裡要多放衛生紙，帶點餅乾、巧克力一起去。 原本計畫搭乘大眾交通工具去，卻在出發前兩天敵不過非常懶惰的自己。 這兩年多來，我把自己寵得是越來越嬌氣。 不想太辛勞的事情，就不勉強自己。 另一位朋友在臉書上寫著想念。 過往的對話，大部分我都想不起來。 我只記得我今天的哥斯大黎加，大嘴鳥莊園手沖咖啡，因另一朋友去詢問老闆關於咖啡的問題，打亂了老闆的節奏，結果我成了苦主，喝到一杯又苦又澀的咖啡。 就像是想到朋友已離開這件事情的心情。 我在自己挖掘的情緒坑洞裡掙扎。 我在樹梢被風吹過的搖晃裡擺盪。 宇宙說，這都是過程。 存在，是還在路上。 曾存在，是已完成。 死亡與再生，在宇宙奧妙平衡裡，分秒持續運動著。 他一人的離去，你幾人的難過，是滄海一粟，是江海一滴。 我的心情低落，是蒼白。 在浩瀚中，根本看不出來。 宇宙說， 有感受，有覺知，是存在與擁有，非失落。 應該要明白，要懂得，因擁有才會感到痛。 花開花落。 潮起潮落。 有機會能說聲”再會”，是很好的告別。 走過人間，終會一別。 不枉相遇相識這一場。 Alyson’s 4/08 Tarot: Universe (10-57) Question: The theme of my future diary for 4/07 Card drawn: Universe Once again, the magic of tarot is validated. Ten days ago, I decided to combine tarot card drawing with writing my future diary. That evening, I called out to the universe, asking it to guide the themes for each week of the next four weeks. I then drew sub-themes for each week, spanning seven days each. Yesterday, as I wrote that the theme for the second week was "Death," I didn't realize its significance. It wasn't until just now, as I reviewed my previous tarot card draws and saw that today's sub-theme is "Universe," that my emotions were once again stirred, and tears threatened to fall. Today, a group of friends and I went to visit a friend who has already departed. It wasn't until mid-March of this year that we learned of his passing. We had been discussing visiting him intermittently, bridging the dates when we could all go together, which happened to be today. As usual, I compartmentalized my thoughts between work and personal matters. It's a difficult state to articulate. Although both aspects share the same mind and calendar, they seem disconnected, with the only opportunity for connection being the occasional overlap in my schedule. Thus, until just earlier, I hadn't noticed the connection between today's tarot card and my personal agenda. This morning, I didn't have the time or the mindset to think about or write today's "future diary." Aside from rushing out the door, I simply wasn't in the right headspace. I dare not imagine the scene at the tree burial site where our friend rests, nor do I know what emotions to expect from myself. All I remember is to pack extra tissues in my bag and bring some biscuits and chocolate along. Originally, I planned to take public transportation, but two days before departure, my overwhelming laziness got the better of me. Over these past couple of years, I've grown increasingly pampered. If it's something I don't feel like exerting effort for, I simply won't force myself. Another friend wrote on Facebook expressing their longing. Most of our past conversations escape my memory. All I can recall is my time in Costa Rica, at the Toucan Rescue Ranch, hand-brewing coffee, while another friend asked the owner coffee-related questions, disrupting the owner's rhythm and resulting in me being served a bitter cup of coffee. It's akin to the feeling of realizing that a friend has departed. I'm struggling within the emotional pits I've dug for myself. I sway amidst the swaying of the treetops in the breeze. The universe says, this is all part of the process. Existence is still on its journey. What once existed is now complete. Death and rebirth, within the mysterious balance of the universe, continue to move forward. The departure of one person, the sorrow of a few, is but a drop in the ocean. My melancholy is insignificant amidst the vastness. The universe says, to feel, to be aware, is to exist and possess, not to lose. One should understand, should comprehend, that pain comes from having had something. Flowers bloom and wither. Tides rise and fall. The chance to say "farewell" is a gracious parting. Having traversed this earthly realm, farewells are inevitable. Our meeting and acquaintance were not in vain. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYurSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Universe

Alyson’s 3/31 Tarot：皇后 Empress

Alyson’s 3/31 Tarot：皇后 Empress 讓我熱淚盈眶，讓我溫暖力量滿胸膛 讓我謙卑跪下，讓我平靜祥和又安康 焚香，仰頭，靜心，凝視 向您呼喚，不敢高喊 您沉默，您不理 您低眉看似俯瞰紅塵，也許看人們的前世今生 只要您在哪，那兒就是我的家，我歸屬的地方 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145031173 生日快樂！觀世音菩薩 觀世音菩薩的聖誕日，我前往林口竹林山觀音寺幫觀音菩薩慶生，祝賀她的生日。 乾媽 ~ 我是神明的孩子 小時候非常羨慕哥哥和弟弟都有乾媽，我卻沒有。 曾問過媽媽，為何我沒有。 爸媽說，因為我小時候非常愛哭，又愛跟弟弟吵架，沒有大人喜歡我，沒有人想當我的乾爸或乾媽。 我在夜裡哭泣。 我覺得我很棒的呀！ 我太小了，不管是哭泣，或是因太愛哭被媽媽抱在懷裡睡覺的記憶。 羨慕現在的孩子，父母將他們成長，紀錄在相機裡，電腦裡，還有影片裡。 最後，觀世音菩薩成為了我的乾媽。 在我們的文化裡，許多與神明有緣分的孩子，會認神明做乾爸或乾媽。 我們是神明的孩子。 慶生 那天，我比原先預期的晚半個小時起床。 以前長輩和朋友們的睡眠是隨著年齡增長而遞減，我連這點都與眾不同，現在年紀多了，睡眠時間更長了。 沒有睡飽，無法清醒，頭會痛。 所以即使神識有點舒醒，但眼睛張不開，腦子無法運轉時，我就會繼續貪睡一下。 準備了水果，擺放在好看的竹籃裡，到時候就提著進廟裡，直接放在供桌就可以。 記得家裡在這樣的日子，媽媽會事先去買紅龜粿或壽桃這類中式糕點給神明慶生。 我想著自己愛吃的是蛋糕，於是就準備蛋糕。 直覺力 晚起，當天所有的時間都需往後延。 賴床時，腦海中曾閃過一個思緒，非常短暫，快得沒能抓住那訊息。 直到進入蛋糕店，聽著店家跟排在我前面的那位客人說，小型蛋糕已售完的話語，這時，早上沒能抓到的訊息，馬上連結到腦海，並清晰有了畫面與現在眼前發生的場景一樣。 我的直覺力慢慢得回來了，經過我散漫了六、七百天後，感動。 是觀世音菩薩和眾神明的庇佑。 祈禱與祝賀 取了六根香，在廟的右邊側門裡面有點香檯。 高舉點燃的香，然後從右邊側門走出。 走至天空爐前，頂禮，祈禱念詞，三拜。 將三根香插入廟大門正前方的香爐裡。 後退，頂禮，三拜。 從廟的左邊側門進入廟宇裡。 站在中心排，面向前方的神明佛像。 頂禮，祈禱念詞，三拜。 將手上還有的三根香插入前方香爐裡。 後退，雙掌合起，三拜。 從十幾年前，我前來廟宇，除了特別的三次以外，皆無任何的祈求。 第一次是請求指引工作選擇。 第二次是爸爸住院病危通知。 第三次是拜託照護奶奶爸媽。 今日目的是慶生，當然就是祝福生日快樂，然後國家安康。 小幸運，也是小福報 停車位 當我車子快接近廟宇附近的停車場時，前方塞車了。 將車子右轉，打算繞一圈，到後面馬路的停車格。 轉了一圈後，注意到原塞車的路口已無車，那就試試看，也許有比較近的停車位。 過了紅綠燈，馬上，右前方就有個停車格，還是最後一個。 就這樣輕易且順利將車停好。 供品位 進入廟宇，非常多人，供桌上滿滿的供品。 尋思要找空位擺放水果和蛋糕，走到白虎邊的第二排桌子，剛好看到有香客在收他們的供品。 超級幸運的呀！ 請他們慢慢來，我可以等一下時間的，沒關係的。 在這樣神聖的日子，許多人都面帶微笑與欣喜心前來。 我的竹籃和蛋糕盒，都是方型且盒子狀，可以疊起來擺放。 在這樣隆重日子，神明不會跟信徒、香客計較東西擺放是否有端正。 結緣品 第一次注意廟裡的活動情況，以前總是只有拜拜，沒有留意其他。 廟宇中間，出家師父們帶領信眾唱誦佛經。 正想往那裏靠近，突然聽到物品撒落的聲音，我趕緊前往協助撿拾。 以為是某信眾的供品，撿起來後才知道是中間師父們丟出來要送給有緣粉的信眾們的糖果。 我很幸運，撿到了兩顆。 在我不懂的情況下，不同的糖果繼續發送。 站在第一線的一位姐姐，突然轉身，將她手指攤開說，歡迎結緣，分享她掌中的糖果。 我拿了她的糖果，並用我撿到的另一種，送給這位姐姐，祝福她。 糖果繼續分送著。 我覺我有拿到兩種，已是非常幸運的事情，不須每一種都要拿到，更不須要拿到很多。 有好多人受到觀世音菩薩的協助，發送著還願品，跟大眾結善緣。 還有大悲咒水，經過觀世音菩薩的加持，回家加入飲用水，從身體內部，每一細胞都有著佛經的保護。 祈禱位 觀音菩薩聖誕日，廟宇的委員會請了師父前來唱誦佛經。 關於佛經，對我們來說很有距離，裡頭全是看不懂的梵文意思。 就如同基督教有讀聖經班，佛經也有讀經班，讓想要了解的人有機會可以研讀。 外圍發放著糖果餅乾，中間的唱誦佛經持續著，我站在一旁跟著頂禮，膜拜。 隨著師父唱誦的聲調，我的身體很輕鬆得輕微舞動。 那是讓我很沉浸的音律。 看到一位長輩也想頂禮膜拜，我側了身，讓她可以更為靠近一些。 我想，這也是一種志同道合吧。 在這樣近的距離，我與觀世音菩薩金身在同一個小空間裡，隨著唱誦聲音的流淌，我的心思只有佛經，只有當下。我的心中，溫柔燦燦。 回家 ~ 溫暖的溫柔 儀式告一段落。 觀世音菩薩的金身需要回到大殿之中。 這是第一次看到竹林山觀音寺觀世音菩薩的金身。 小小的，黑黑的，應是被長年鼎盛香火燻的。 原本想拿起手機拍攝或錄影。 在發現菩薩金身應該會經過身邊時，我一心只想好好看看菩薩，只想感受當下。 菩薩金身被人抱著朝我邊前進，我用右手跟觀音菩薩金身打招呼，輕聲對她說，『觀音菩薩，生日快樂。』 在菩薩金身從我眼前經過時，我瞬間熱淚盈眶，站在原地久久無法移身。 像是被光溫暖包裹著，擁抱著。 我像是被乾媽抱在懷中，她溫柔的撫慰我。 我在心中對觀世音菩薩說，我回來了。乾媽。 咖啡味 竹林寺大門旁的停車場邊邊開了一家小小咖啡廳。 一位年輕男孩的創業，裡面位置不多，也沒有洗手間。 我喜歡這地方的可愛，和老闆的親切。 詢問了併桌，獲得對方親和的回應。 老闆還記得我，我們聊了農曆春節他與廟宇如此近的距離，他的所見，所聞，所感，所想。 有時我們都需要像是朋友，可互相聊聊的人。 不熟悉但認識，這樣的淡淡，很好。 後記 離開了廟宇，將蛋糕分享給哥哥嫂嫂，分享給社區守衛和打掃大姊。 吃觀世音菩薩加持過的蛋糕，大家都平安，都沾染到溫暖的光。 回到自己的家中，想將慶生寫下紀錄，也想知道當觀世音菩薩經過我身旁時，她跟我說了什麼，讓我的高靈感動到情緒無法控制，即使過了一些時間，跟哥哥分享時，依然是想流淚，依然馬上紅眼眶。 塔羅抽到了『皇后Empress』。 我又哭了。 是媽媽。 張開雙手，等著我撲上前，抱著我。 是媽媽。 滋養孕育，等著我撲上前，餵飽我。 是媽媽。 溫暖守候，等著我撲上前，撫慰我。 是媽媽。 安慰支持，等著我撲上前，誇獎我。 是媽媽。 林口竹林山觀音寺： https://www.zlskyt.com.tw/ 紅龜粿： https://zh.wikipedia.org/zh-tw/%E7%B4%85%E9%BE%9C%E7%B2%BF 壽桃： https://www.klintainan.com/Goods/92 Alyson’s 3/31 Tarot: Empress Let my eyes brim with tears, let warm strength fill my chest, Let me kneel in humility, let me be serene, peaceful, and healthy, Burning incense, looking up, quieting my mind, gazing, Calling out to you, not daring to shout, You remain silent, you don't respond, With lowered brows, seemingly overlooking the mortal world, perhaps seeing people's past lives and present, As long as you are there, that's my home, the place I belong. Happy Birthday! Guanyin Bodhisattva On the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva, I went to the Guanyin Temple in Linkou Zhulin Mountain to celebrate her birthday and offer my congratulations. Godmother ~ I Am a Child of the Deities When I was young, I envied my brothers for having godmothers while I didn't. I once asked my mother why. My parents said it was because I used to cry a lot and argue with my younger brother, and no adults liked me or wanted to be my godparents. I cried myself to sleep at night. I thought I was great! I was too young to remember whether it was crying or being cuddled to sleep by my mother because I cried too much. I envied today's children, whose parents record their growth in cameras, computers, and videos. Finally, Guanyin Bodhisattva became my godmother. In our culture, many children who are destined to have connections with deities recognize them as godparents. We are children of the deities. Celebration That day, I woke up half an hour later than I originally planned. In the past, the sleep of elders and friends decreased with age, but I was different. As I grew older, I slept longer. Without enough sleep, I couldn't stay awake, and my head would ache. So even if my consciousness was somewhat awake, if I couldn't open my eyes or my brain couldn't function, I would continue to indulge in sleep. I prepared fruits and arranged them in a beautiful bamboo basket to take them into the temple and place them directly on the altar when the time came. I remember that on such days, my mother would buy traditional Chinese pastries like red turtle cakes or longevity peaches to celebrate the deities' birthdays. Since I loved cakes, I decided to prepare a cake. Intuition Waking up late meant that everything for the day would be delayed. While lying in bed, a fleeting thought crossed my mind, so brief that I couldn't grasp the message. It wasn't until I entered the cake shop and heard the shopkeeper telling the customer in front of me that the small cakes were sold out that the morning's missed message instantly connected in my mind, vividly matching the scene happening before me. My intuition was slowly returning, which moved me after my absent-mindedness for six or seven hundred days. It was the blessing of Guanyin Bodhisattva and the other deities. Prayer and Blessing I took six incense sticks. Inside the temple's right side door was an incense table. I raised the lit incense and walked out from the right side door. I walked to the sky furnace, paid respects, recited prayers, and bowed three times. Then, I inserted three incense sticks into the incense burner directly in front of the temple door. I stepped back, paid respects, and bowed three times. I entered the temple from the left side door. Standing in the center row facing the deity's statue in front, I paid respects, recited prayers, and bowed three times. Then, I inserted the remaining three incense sticks into the incense burner in front. I stepped back, clasped my hands together, and bowed three times. Since ten years ago, when I came to the temple, except for three special occasions, I had no requests during my visits. The first time was to seek guidance on job choices. The second time was when my father was hospitalized and critically ill. The third time was to ask for care for my grandparents. Today's purpose was to celebrate, of course, to wish for a happy birthday and the well-being of the country. Small Fortunes, Small Blessings Parking Space As my car approached the temple's parking lot, there was traffic ahead. I turned right, planning to go around and park in the parking spaces on the street behind. After making a circle, I noticed that the intersection where there was traffic before was now clear. So, I decided to try my luck and see if there was a closer parking space. After passing the traffic light, there was immediately a parking space on the right side, and it was the last one. So, I easily and smoothly parked my car. Offerings Entering the temple, there were many people, and the offering tables were full. I wondered where to find space to place the fruits and cake. I walked to the second row of tables on the side of the White Tiger and happened to see worshippers collecting their offerings. Super lucky! I asked them to take their time as I could wait. On such a sacred day, many people came with smiles and joy. My bamboo basket and cake box were both square and box-shaped, so they could be stacked and placed. On such an important day, the deities wouldn't mind how neatly offerings were placed by the worshippers and visitors. Bonds It was the first time I paid attention to the activities in the temple. Before, I only prayed without paying attention to anything else. In the middle of the temple, the ordained masters led the worshippers in chanting sutras. Just as I was about to approach them, I suddenly heard the sound of items being scattered. I hurried over to help pick them up, thinking they were offerings from worshippers. Only after picking them up did I realize they were candies thrown by the masters in the middle to be given to worshippers who were destined to receive them. I was very lucky to pick up two. Without understanding why, different candies continued to be distributed. A sister standing in the front suddenly turned around, opened her hand, and welcomed me to share the candies in her palm. I took her candy and gave her the other one I picked up, wishing her well. The candies continued to be distributed. I felt lucky to have picked up two kinds, which was already a very fortunate thing. There was no need to have every kind or to have many. Many people received help from Guanyin Bodhisattva, offering their gratitude and forming good karma with others. There was also the water blessed with the Great Compassion Mantra, which, when consumed at home, protected every cell of the body with the sutras. Prayer Space On the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the temple committee invited masters to chant sutras. The sutras were distant to us, filled with Sanskrit meanings we couldn't understand. Just as Christianity has Bible study classes, there are also sutra study classes for those who wish to understand. Candies and cookies were distributed on the periphery, while the chanting of sutras continued in the middle. I stood aside, paying respects and worshiping along. With the tones of the master's chanting, my body relaxed slightly, swaying gently. It was a melody that immersed me deeply. Seeing an elder wanting to pay respects, I stepped aside to let her get closer. I thought, this is also a kind of mutual understanding. At such a close distance, I and the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva were in the same small space. Flowing with the chanting, my mind was filled only with the sutras, only with the present moment. My heart was warm and radiant. Going Home ~ Warm Gentleness The ceremony came to a close. The golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva needed to return to the main hall. It was the first time I had seen the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva at the Zhulin Mountain Guanyin Temple. It was small and dark, likely imbued with the incense smoke of many years. I had initially thought of taking out my phone to capture or record it. However, when I realized that the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva would pass by me, I focused solely on observing her, just wanting to feel the present moment. As the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva was carried towards me, I greeted her with my right hand and softly said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, happy birthday." As the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva passed by me, tears welled up in my eyes instantly, and I stood there unable to move for a long time. It felt like being enveloped in warm light, embraced. It was as if I were being hugged by my godmother, her gentle comfort soothing me. In my heart, I said to Guanyin Bodhisattva, "I'm back, godmother." Coffee Flavor Next to the parking lot by the gate of the Zhulin Temple, there was a small coffee shop. It was started by a young man, with limited seating and no restroom. I liked the quaintness of this place and the friendliness of the owner. I asked to share a table and received a friendly response. The owner remembered me, and we talked about the proximity of the Lunar New Year to the temple, sharing perspectives and experiences. Sometimes, we all need someone to chat with, even if we're not familiar but acquainted. Such light connections are nice. Afterthought Leaving the temple, I shared the cake with my brother, sister-in-law, community guards, and the cleaning lady. Eating the cake blessed by Guanyin Bodhisattva, everyone was safe and bathed in warm light. Back at home, I wanted to write down the celebration and also find out what Guanyin Bodhisattva said to me as she passed by, which moved me to uncontrollable emotions. Even after some time had passed, I still felt like crying when I shared it with my brother, with tears in my eyes. I drew the Tarot card "Empress" again. And I cried. It was my mother. With open arms, waiting for me to rush into them, embracing me. It was my mother. Nurturing and feeding me, waiting for me to come to her. It was my mother. Warmly waiting, ready to comfort me when I rush to her. It was my mother. Offering solace and support, waiting for me to approach, ready to praise me. It was my mother.

Alyson’s 4/04 Tarot：衝浪者 Surfer (6-57)

Alyson’s 4/04 Tarot：衝浪者 Surfer (6-57) 問題：我4/03的未來日記主題 抽牌：衝浪者 Surfer 今天清晨被地震搖醒了過來。 沒有立即從床上跳起來，只想著，若房子出了狀況，那我這輩子，就是白忙活一場了。 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145480033 以往在高樓十九樓、二十三樓都遇到過地震，非常地搖晃。 以前曾和同事們笑話，若身處的建築物倒了，攔腰斷了，跑也跑不了。 只有資訊單位較緊張，怕斷電，怕系統當機，會馬上反應一些措施。 於是我們幾乎都是非常淡定的繼續工作，繼續開會。 這樣的心態，好還是不好。 這樣的態度，是否有駕馭著情緒，駕馭著衝動。 今日有跟人預約碰面，若是以前，發生大地震，就不會想出門。 沒有怕，是不想貪看熱鬧。 外面情況如何不知道，就怕亂糟糟，而我還跑出去，感覺就是添亂。 但我想著要”改變”，且沒有聽到消防車或救護車的聲音，我所生活的區域應該是還好，沒有嚴重的事情發生。 所以我出門了。 乘駕在浪尖上 手指撫摸著浪花 水從指縫中溜走，抓不住，卻也擁有過 是否，我們人間走一場，也是如此。 存在，非永恆。 永恆裡，存在過。 當下的擁有，下一秒的失落。 因曾擁有過，所以失去會難過。 若未曾擁有過，也就不會有難過？ 不，會有另一種難過，一種從來都沒能擁有的難過。 人，是貪心的。 人，是貪婪的。 人，是貪要的。 我今天的「未來日記」難下筆。 一場地震，把心情整個上下振，左右晃，都擰了。 我沒有面臨到末日的恐慌。 還是想著，要如何賺錢，早餐要吃什麼，今天要怎麼安排，電影到底要不要去看。 我還是只想著今天如何過。 我想的只有”當下”。 宇宙說，今日除了追尋刺激，也控管情緒 一時太多情緒，負擔太大 要慎選，要區分，要放掉，要取捨 還是受到地震的刺激和影響。 走過咖啡廳，杯平時捨不得買的高價咖啡。 進入書局，買入一隻看了很久的鋼筆。 走進小吃店，不管是否吃得下，想吃的都點一輪。 我壓抑著一些思緒，一些情緒。 於是，我放縱了物欲，開啟了貪欲，縱容了任性，鬆開了衝動。 我想，寧願破財，也不要情緒高漲下跌。 我放掉了一些甚麼，我取捨了一些什麼。 今天，台灣發生大地震。 我只是安靜又從容得過自己的日子。 這樣，算不算駕馭。 今日的「未來日記」，因放縱與衝動，原本想做的事情幾乎都做了，只有電影院沒開門以外，其他的，全都實現。 不過，都是花錢的事情，所以實現也沒甚麼需要多自豪。 Alyson’s 4/04 Tarot: The Surfer (6-57) Question: Theme of my future diary for 4/03 Card drawn: The Surfer This morning, I was awakened by an earthquake. Instead of immediately jumping out of bed, I found myself thinking, "If the house is in trouble, then my entire life would have been in vain." I've experienced earthquakes before, even on the 19th and 23rd floors of tall buildings, where the shaking was intense. I used to joke with colleagues that if the building collapsed and we were trapped, there would be no escape. Only the IT department seemed nervous, fearing power outages or system crashes, and they would immediately take action. So, most of us remained calm and continued working, continuing our meetings. Is this attitude good or bad? Does it control emotions and impulses? Today, I had an appointment with someone. In the past, during a major earthquake, I wouldn't have considered leaving the house. It's not that I was afraid; I just didn't want to get caught up in the commotion outside. I feared chaos, and adding to it by going out felt wrong. But I thought about "change," and since I hadn't heard any sirens from fire trucks or ambulances, my area should be okay, without any major incidents. So, I went out. Riding on the crest of a wave, Fingers caressing the spray, Water slipping through my fingers, unable to grasp, yet still possessed. Isn't life on Earth the same? Existence, not eternal. In eternity, there was once existence. What is possessed in the moment, lost the next. Because it was once possessed, losing it is painful. If it was never possessed, would there be no sorrow? No, there would be another kind of sorrow, the sorrow of never having had it. Humans are greedy. Humans are selfish. Humans are desirous. I found it difficult to write in my "future diary" today. An earthquake shook my emotions up and down, left and right. I didn't face a doomsday panic. I still thought about how to make money, what to have for breakfast, how to plan my day, and whether to go to the movies. I only thought about the "now." The universe says, besides seeking excitement today, control emotions too. Too many emotions at once are too burdensome. Be cautious, differentiate, let go, make choices. Still, I was stimulated and influenced by the earthquake. I passed by a café and bought the expensive coffee I usually wouldn't. I entered a bookstore and bought a fountain pen I'd been eyeing for a long time. I went into a snack shop and ordered everything I wanted, regardless of whether I could finish it. I suppressed some thoughts, some emotions. So, I indulged in material desires, unleashed greed, indulged in whims, and let go of impulses. I thought it's better to lose money than to experience emotional highs and lows. I let go of something and made choices. Today, a major earthquake hit Taiwan. I just quietly and calmly went through my day. Does this count as control? In today's "future diary," because of indulgence and impulsiveness, I almost did everything I wanted to do, except the cinema wasn't open. Everything else was accomplished. However, they were all things that required spending money, so there's not much to be proud of. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Surfer

Alyson’s 4/09 Tarot：改變 Change (11-57)

Alyson’s 4/09 Tarot：改變 Change (11-57) 問題：我4/08的未來日記主題 抽牌：改變 Change 清晨做了惡夢，不過醒來之後，忘了夢境，只記得那悶在胸口的鬱，那想要大吼的氣。 可，終究我什麼也沒有做。 應該不是成熟穩重的關係。 單純只是明白了，那畢竟只是沒有意義的夢，也就不花費心思去記得。 「死亡」主題下的「改變」，像是我們中文”置之死地而後生”的覺悟。 可能因明天開始就要整天上課，連週末週日也都被學習佔滿了時間，心裡頭早就明白今天是近幾個月最後的悠閒日。 這一天，並非如朋友們常做的把握最後一刻春宵那般的放縱。 我反而將該處理的生活瑣事一件一件的完成。 我今日的思考狀態，工作執行狀況直接反映了今日塔羅牌「改變」，且是從心，從腦袋的思維改變。 今日就像是在為明天開始的新路程做預熱，也像是為過去散漫做個較為完整的結尾。 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145941382 改變是為了往前走。 人生的千山萬水， 時代的變化萬遷， 在紅塵翻滾中存在的人們，就是得調整自己。 辦完事情後，回到家，想好好休息一場。 看著地上有著前兩天帶回來一大袋的蔬菜， 今日不處理，明天開始更沒有時間搞這弄那的， 認分吧！ 趕快用好，爭取早點休息。 這心態就與昨日不同啦。 昨日總想著，不是還有明日嗎？ 每一日都是擁有著永遠的明日。 而今天懂了。 雖然都是明日，可意義不同呀。 能任性胡鬧的日子中就已到盡頭。 於是我在今天買了一束香水百合送給了自己。 謝謝過去辛苦的自己。 謝謝現在願意調整改變的自己。 謝謝宇宙、造物主、老天、眾神明還有我可愛的爸媽，讓我有機會可以選擇，可以改變，讓我能夠成為與往昔不一樣的模樣。 攪拌著鍋，收著玩樂的心。 炒鏟著菜，收起散漫的意志。 今晚，得早睡。 今晚，希望能好睡。 明天，是延續今日舊習的新的一天。 明日，是開展新希望新路程的一天。 明兒個，很可能會是一番不適應和雜亂無章的一天。 Alyson's 4/09 Tarot: Change (11-57) Question: My journal theme for 4/08 Card drawn: Change This morning started with a nightmare, though upon waking up, the dream faded, leaving only the heaviness in my chest, the desire to scream held within. Yet, ultimately, I did nothing. It doesn't seem like a mature and stable response. Simply put, I understood that it was just a meaningless dream, not worth dwelling upon. "Change" under the theme of "Death" feels like the realization of the Chinese saying "out of the ashes, a phoenix shall rise". Perhaps because tomorrow marks the beginning of a full day of classes, with even the weekends occupied by studies, I've long understood that today is the last leisurely day in months. It wasn't a day to indulge like my friends often do on their last moments of freedom. Instead, I tackled each household chore one by one. My mindset and productivity today directly reflect the Tarot card "Change," both from the heart and in terms of cognitive shift. Today feels like a warm-up for the new journey starting tomorrow, and also a more complete conclusion to the past laxity. Change is necessary to move forward. In the vast expanse of life's ups and downs, amidst the ever-changing times, those who exist in the hustle and bustle must adapt. After finishing my tasks, returning home, I wanted to rest properly. Seeing the large bag of vegetables brought back a couple of days ago lying on the floor, I realized if I didn't deal with them today, I'd have no time tomorrow. Let's get it done! Quickly use them up and aim for an early rest. This attitude is different from yesterday. Yesterday, I kept thinking, isn't there always tomorrow? Each day holds the promise of eternity. But today, I understood. Even though it's always tomorrow, the significance varies. The days of carefree revelry have come to an end. So today, I bought myself a bouquet of perfumed lilies. Thank you to my past self for enduring all the hardships. Thank you to my present self for being willing to adjust and change. Thank you to the universe, the Creator, the heavens, the divine, and my lovely parents, for giving me the opportunity to choose, to change, allowing me to become a different person than I was in the past. Stirring the pot, taming the playful heart. Stir-frying the vegetables, disciplining the scattered will. Tonight, I must sleep early. Tonight, I hope for a good rest. Tomorrow, it's a new day continuing the old habits from today. Tomorrow, it's a day to embark on new hopes and journeys. #DreamCatcherTarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYurSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Change

It's time to face the wall, reflect, and make improvements. #DreamCatcher #Tarot #Tarotreader #Tarotcards #Reflection #Words #Dream #Alyson #塔羅 #捕夢人 #地球 #物質 #反映

2024 0520今日塔羅：慈悲 Compassion

2024 0520今日塔羅：慈悲 Compassion 外面震耳欲聾，已經很久很久沒在街道間聽到作法事的聲音。 我很好，沒有因聽到這樣的聲音，心情受到影響。 這聲音是我的回憶之一，也是許多朋友在回憶裡的事情。 哀戚的表情，跪拜紅痛的雙膝。 聽著佛經唱誦聲，心中疑惑，這聽不懂的文，真有幫助？ 以前年輕，年齡尚小，不懂事。 死亡，是許多人家裡的禁忌話題，過往，在我家也是一樣。 對於送別死亡要忙碌的事情，老一輩的人從來不說，我們也沒得問。 直到，死別降臨在自己家裡。 恍神地聽著葬儀社的建議，恍惚地點頭。 決定的事情到底是為了甚麼原因而需要，而必要，依然不知悉。 嗩吶聲在風微微吹動的夜晚，一聲一波傳遞到窗前。 今天的塔羅牌是『慈悲』。 同時間腦海裡浮現了一個問題，「慈悲和善良，要如何區別？如何運用？」 慈悲，是佛教用語。 慈是指給予眾生安樂；而悲是指拔除眾生的痛苦。後來也延伸有慈愛、悲憫的意思。 一位佛教師父說，「慈悲是選擇，善良是本能。慈悲跟善良之間是有共性的，但是慈悲是理智的結果。」 慈悲，掛念於心，掛心於口，掛口於念。 慈悲，有溫暖和祥和的能量。 慈悲，帶有同理心，體諒與寬容。 真誠地，坦率地，面對問題。 檢討、反省，了解問題。 坦率地，嚴格地，改正、調整問題。 寬容地，溫柔地，迎接新的自己。 Today's Tarot for May 20, 2024: Compassion The outside world is deafeningly loud; it's been a long time since I last heard the sounds of ritual practices in the streets. I'm fine, my mood isn't affected by these sounds. This sound is one of my memories, and it is also a part of the memories of many friends. Mourning expressions, knees red and sore from kneeling. Listening to the chanting of Buddhist scriptures, I wonder, does this incomprehensible text really help? When I was younger, still a child, I didn't understand much. Death was a taboo topic in many families, and it was the same in mine. The older generation never spoke about the busy tasks of farewelling death, and we didn't get to ask. That was until death visited my own family. Numbly listening to the funeral home's suggestions, I nodded dazedly. Even now, I do not fully understand the reasons or necessity behind the decisions made. The sound of suona in the gently blowing night wind spreads to the window. Today's tarot card is "Compassion." Simultaneously, a question arises in my mind, "How do we distinguish between compassion and kindness? How do we apply them?" Compassion is a term used in Buddhism. "Compassion" in this context means giving joy and removing suffering for all beings. Later, it extended to mean loving-kindness and empathy. A Buddhist teacher once said, "Compassion is a choice, kindness is an instinct. There is a commonality between compassion and kindness, but compassion is the result of rationality." Compassion is carried in the heart, spoken from the mouth, and thought in the mind. Compassion has the energy of warmth and peace. Compassion involves empathy, understanding, and tolerance. Face issues sincerely and honestly. Review and reflect to understand the problem. Correct and adjust issues candidly and strictly. Embrace the new self with tolerance and gentleness. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Compassion

2024 0621 今日塔羅：創造者 Inventor

2024 0621 今日塔羅：創造者 Inventor 連續兩天都抽到同一張塔羅牌。 真的是讓我感到驚訝，且也深思有甚麼事情讓宇宙這樣提醒著我們。 昨天，上完最後一天的電腦培訓課程。 從完全不懂的小白，到現在，有些技能知道了，很多都還是懵懵懂懂。 過去在學校時，聽著那些搞不懂的專業科目，我到底是如何過關，如何仍對自己充滿自信，認為自己日後有能力可以在江湖上有風得走著。 年紀越長，看得越多，也曾走遠過，雖然也沒有走得太遠，就每天通勤到另一個城市而已，不過城市不同，屬性不同，看過廣闊的世界，認識很多很棒的人，深感自己的渺小，也覺自己的能力，可發揮的價值不多。 常會有”冒牌者心理”的感受浮上心頭。 我有像他們認為的那樣棒嗎？ 我值得被人好好對待嗎? 應該很快就會被人發現我是硬撐的吧？ 我總是佩服專業又有自信的人。 我總是欣賞能力強大又情緒穩定的人。 我總是靠近溫柔又善解人意的人。 我總是想要成為他們每一個人。 我也想成為創造者，創意者。 在我們的腦袋裡，每天激發龐大的能量，所以常常動腦後，會更覺疲憊，有些人會想吃東西，補充一下，有人則是會想睡覺。 心智，是東西嗎？ 可說是東西，但又不具體。 不具體，無形，卻有確確實實的存在。 心智，你在想甚麼？你想要做甚麼？你怎麼想？你想怎麼做？ 如何抓到腦中的飛逝而過的想法？ 如何鍛鍊心智？ 如何發揮心智？ 這都是創造者可以思考的事情。 在學習電腦平面插畫的過程裡，除了技能的學習，技巧的練習，我自己發現一開始的發想、構想、構圖，就已是影響成敗的關鍵了。 技能可以靠持續學習而獲得。 技巧可以靠不斷練習而熟稔。 想法，構想，更是需要長期的發覺、發想、連結。 美的眼光在日日的培養，薰陶。 創意也是。 作家，需要持續地練筆鋒，練筆觸，也需要容納百川地多閱讀，多吸收各種常識、知識。 藝術家，需要勇敢地嘗試不同材質或工法，也須從各種角度欣賞、挖掘美的不同姿態，不同風景。 學習課程今日要結訓了。 不過，自我學習的路，是沒有終點時間的。 繼續努力。 Tarot of the Day for June 21, 2024: The Creator – Inventor For the first time, I’ve drawn the same tarot card two days in a row. This really surprises me and makes me reflect on what the universe is trying to remind us. Yesterday, I finished the last day of a computer training course. From knowing nothing at all, now I’ve gained some skills, although many aspects are still confusing. In the past, when I was in school, I managed to pass those incomprehensible professional subjects. How did I do it? How did I remain confident, believing that I would be able to navigate the world successfully? As I’ve grown older, seen more, and traveled further, though not too far—just commuting to another city each day—the different city with its distinct characteristics broadened my horizons. I met many amazing people and deeply felt my own insignificance. I often questioned my abilities and the value I could offer. Feelings of being an "impostor" often surface. Am I as good as they think I am? Do I deserve to be treated well? Will people soon realize that I’m just faking it? I always admire people who are professional and confident. I always appreciate those who are highly capable and emotionally stable. I am always drawn to gentle and understanding individuals. I always want to become each of them. I also want to be a creator, an inventor. Our minds generate enormous energy daily, which often leaves us feeling exhausted after intensive thinking. Some people might want to eat to replenish themselves, while others may feel the need to sleep. Is the mind a tangible thing? It can be said to be a thing, yet it is not concrete. Intangible, invisible, but undeniably real. Mind, what are you thinking? What do you want to do? How do you think? How do you want to act? How can we capture fleeting thoughts in our minds? How can we train our minds? How can we utilize our minds? These are the questions that creators can ponder. During the process of learning computer graphic illustration, besides acquiring skills and practicing techniques, I’ve discovered that the initial idea, concept, and composition are crucial to success. Skills can be acquired through continuous learning. Techniques can be mastered through constant practice. Ideas and concepts require long-term discovery, brainstorming, and connection. Aesthetic appreciation is cultivated and nurtured daily. So is creativity. A writer needs to continuously practice their writing and touch, absorbing a wealth of knowledge and information from extensive reading. An artist needs to bravely try different materials and techniques, appreciating and exploring beauty from various angles and different landscapes. Today marks the end of the training course. However, the journey of self-learning has no end. Keep striving forward. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Inventor

2024 0522今日塔羅：火戰車 Chariot

2024 0522今日塔羅：火戰車 Chariot 今天會是很有幹勁、活力的一天。 今天的塔羅牌是『火戰車』。 主牌人物是阿波羅。 阿波羅是誰？ 是戰神。 是光明之神，也是文藝之神。 是月亮女神阿提米斯的雙胞胎弟弟。 是太陽神啊。 阿波羅的形象很典型的是，右手拿七弦的里拉琴，左手拿象徵太陽的金球。 是音樂家、詩人和射手的保護神。 因是光明之神，所以從不說謊，光明磊落，也被稱為真理之神。 且非常聰明，通曉世事，是預言之神。 聽說，醫術是他傳給人類的，所以也是醫藥之神。 在希臘神話裡，阿波羅最多才多藝，精通箭術，也掌管音樂。 『火戰車』在阿波羅的駕領下 ~ 如同開著最大渦輪引擎的車，高速往前衝去。 對於喜歡的人事物，就是直接下手，沒有遲疑或猶豫。 在喜歡講究效率的人，火戰車的一天讓他們感覺像是坐上噴射機般，很快地抵達目標地，且成功，感覺特別爽快，特別興奮。 火戰車也有著強大的征戰力。 不攻下，勢不回頭似的急躁，這點讓人擔心，怕衝太快，沒看清楚情勢，沒稍作評估，就一頭栽進去，尤其是投資，有可能這樣造成了損失，然後悔不當初。 如同開車，平面道路的紅綠燈，就是讓我們煞車，提高冷靜意識所用。 阿波羅是講真理，阿波羅裡的左眼裡閃耀著火光，是磊落，是勇敢，可也是衝動。 如同我們的神祉三太子，腳踏風火輪，孩子習性，熱情卻也因衝動致其行事莽撞。 太衝太撞，總是耗心耗力也耗神。 今天雖然很適合果決的行動，可也需要適時休息，吃飯的時候，好好吃飯，有時間就休息一會，別讓”衝”和”火”快速耗竭了能量和心志。 Tarot of the Day for 2024-05-22: The Chariot Today will be a day full of energy and vigor. Today's tarot card is 'The Chariot.' The main character on the card is Apollo. Who is Apollo? He is the god of war. He is the god of light and the arts. He is the twin brother of Artemis, the moon goddess. He is the sun god. Apollo is typically depicted holding a lyre with seven strings in his right hand and a golden orb symbolizing the sun in his left hand. He is the patron of musicians, poets, and archers. As the god of light, he never lies, is honest and upright, and is also known as the god of truth. He is very intelligent, knowledgeable about worldly affairs, and the god of prophecy. It is said that he imparted the art of medicine to humans, making him the god of medicine as well. In Greek mythology, Apollo is the most versatile, skilled in archery, and in charge of music. Under Apollo's guidance, 'Chariot' moves forward like a car with the most powerful turbo engine. For the things and people you like, you act directly without hesitation or doubt. For those who value efficiency, a day under the influence of 'Chariot' feels like riding a jet, quickly reaching their goal and succeeding, feeling especially refreshed and excited. 'Chariot' also has strong conquering power. The impatience to not turn back until victory is achieved can be worrying, as it may lead to rushing forward without fully assessing the situation, especially in investments, potentially causing losses and subsequent regret. Just like driving, traffic lights on flat roads are there to make us brake and stay calm. Apollo speaks the truth, and the fire in his left eye symbolizes his integrity and courage, but also his impulsiveness. Similar to the Chinese deity Nezha, who rides on wind and fire wheels, his childlike enthusiasm can lead to reckless actions due to impulsiveness. Being too impulsive and aggressive can be mentally and physically exhausting. Although today is suitable for decisive actions, it is also important to take timely breaks. Eat well during meals and rest when you have time, so that the 'rush' and 'fire' don't quickly deplete your energy and willpower. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Chariot
