Alyson’s 4/20 Tarot：抱負 Aspriration (22-57)

Alyson’s 4/20 Tarot：抱負 Aspriration (22-57) 問題：我4/19的未來日記主題 抽牌：抱負 Aspriration 經過將近兩週的煎熬與不停的練習，今天，總算沒有上週五的擔憂與恐懼。 有幾次都有跟上了老師教導的節奏，只是需要完全專注，稍微恍神，就糟糕了，整個歪掉的圖面，讓我哭笑不得。 休息時間跟同學聊著天，我說，很開心！今天有比上週進步了。且有些有跟上了。 突然有一個聲音說，聽到妳自己這樣說，我放心不少。替妳開心，這週的妳，進步不少，且都有跟上，也有聽懂了。 沒有注意到老師就在旁邊的我，被這突然的聲音嚇了一大跳。 笑著說，老師，休息時間不要這樣嚇人啊。我的精神只夠用在上課時間的。 這「未來日記」的第三週，主題是『隱士』。 我覺得『隱士』，是在山林間修行，做自己的高人，是率真的人，不太管別人怎麼說，怎麼想，怎麼講，他就做自己，做自己想做的事情，做自己喜歡的事情。 這樣的生活，有著踏實的安全，沒有高低起伏的絢爛與轉折，就是樸實的日子，是種可聽到時間在滴答過去的沉靜，不死寂，如何活動，如何證明活著，都自己決定。 在這樣的時光中，可以看山看雲看天空，聽雨聽水聽鳥叫聲。 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/147245104 在這樣低調內斂的主題下，『抱負」要如何連結與貼近呢？ 這是今天的副標題，是權杖的牌卡之一。 『抱負』有一隻象徵向上移動的火炬，這是實現崇高理想和最大潛能的渴望。 就如同我今天想要搞懂和學習現在卡住的課程一樣。 因為內心的渴望，因為內心的好勝心，也因為初衷，想要學習這項技能，所以才會報名這個課程，才會讓自己每天都微笑著迎接新課程內容。 今天，我有成為想要成為的樣子。 今天，我有獲得想要獲得的技巧。 今天，我有活躍想要活著的模樣。 用專注，用意志力，用努力，還有一顆放鬆的心，迎向每一個學習日。 老爸老媽知道這樣的情況，都會笑話我，說，真是反了，年紀大了，才認真學習，不年輕了，才拼命用功。 早個幾十年就這樣努力，今日應可在家躺平悠閒了。 我知道自己『聰穎』，這是對許多人事物的洞悉力，可我不『聰明』，老是學不起來學校教的那些甲乙丙丁戊己更辛。 我知道自己有『智慧』，這是對人有同理心，有耐心，可我不『勤勞』，老是背不起來歷史中誰跟誰打仗，會計科目借貸雙方要如何才能平衡，更不懂微積分要做甚麼用，搞不懂重力加速度對我的生活有什麼幫助。 如今，在我心中有著一些夢想。 有的已發芽，有的還在吸收土壤營養。 這些一項、兩項、三項加起來是我的一大『抱負』，一個大目標、大夢想。 現在學習的課程、知識和技巧，就是為了成就這個有點遙遠的理想及渴望。 加油！ 靠近目標更接近了。 Alyson’s 4/20 Tarot: Aspiration Question: Theme for my journal entry on 4/19 Card drawn: Aspiration After nearly two weeks of struggle and relentless practice, today, finally, I didn't have the worries and fears of last Friday. There were moments when I kept up with the rhythm taught by the teacher, but just a slight distraction could ruin everything, causing the whole pattern to skew, leaving me both laughing and crying. During break time, chatting with classmates, I said, "I'm so happy! I've made progress today compared to last week. And I've managed to keep up with some parts." Suddenly, a voice said, "Hearing you say that puts me at ease. I'm happy for you. You've made significant progress this week, keeping up and even understanding." I hadn't noticed the teacher standing nearby, and this sudden voice startled me. I laughed and said, "Teacher, don't scare me like that during break time. My focus is only for class." The theme for the third week of this 'Future Diary' is "Hermit." To me, the "Hermit" is someone who practices in the mountains, living as their own sage, honest and true to themselves, regardless of what others say, think, or speak. They do what they want and what they love. This kind of life offers a solid sense of security. It's not about highs and lows, but rather simple days, where one can hear the quiet ticking of time passing by. It's not dead silence; it's about deciding for oneself how to move and prove one's existence. In such times, one can watch mountains, clouds, and the sky, listen to rain, water, and bird songs. Under such a discreet and introspective theme, how does "Aspiration" connect and resonate? This is today's subtitle, one of the cards of the wands. "Aspiration" features a torch symbolizing upward movement, the desire to achieve noble ideals and maximum potential. Just like how today I want to understand and learn the current stuck course. Because of inner desire, competitiveness, and the initial intention to learn this skill, I enrolled in this course, smiling every day to embrace the new course content. Today, I've become who I want to be. Today, I've gained the skills I want to gain. Today, I'm active as I want to be. With focus, willpower, effort, and a relaxed heart, I face each day of learning. My parents joke about this situation, saying, "Isn't it backward? Getting serious about learning when you're older, not striving hard when you're young. If only you had worked this hard decades ago, you could be lounging comfortably at home today." I know I'm "perceptive," with insight into many things, but I'm not "smart," always struggling to grasp what schools teach. I know I have "wisdom," empathy, and patience with people, but I'm not "diligent," always failing to memorize historical battles, how to balance debits and credits in accounting, or understanding the purpose of calculus or how gravity affects my life. Now, I have some dreams in my heart. Some have sprouted, while others are still absorbing the nutrients of the soil. These one, two, three goals add up to my "aspiration," a big goal, a big dream. The courses, knowledge, and skills I'm learning now are all aimed at achieving this somewhat distant ideal and desire. Keep going! Getting closer to the goal brings us closer. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYurSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Aspriration

Alyson’s 4/03 Tarot：豐收 Harvest (5-57)

Alyson’s 4/03 Tarot：豐收 Harvest (5-57) 問題：我4/02的未來日記主題 抽牌：豐收 Harvest https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145387285 發現從休息開始至今二年多的時光裡，一直在調整，想找到或建立適合現在的自己。 以前，不怕，因有爸爸。 現在，怕，也得自己處理。 以前，低潮，不怕，有爸爸在。 現在，失落，怕，該怎麼辦？ 去年，我把自己封閉在家。 今年，我把自己推了出門。 去哪？ 去市場。 去操場。 去有人的地方。 這是我自己非常清楚知道的改變。 我的『未來日記』第一階段要先「改變」。 改變與豐收，一個是因，一個是果，然後又互成為對方的因和果。 古代的九個太陽，是種詛咒 現代的九個木星，是種祝福 這張「豐收」的塔羅牌，是讓人想到心情飛揚，若是穿著裙子，就會想轉圈圈的裙擺擺揚，然後，定住，撒花慶祝。 冰箱裡沒有新鮮青菜。 打算今天出門跑一趟。 這市場是去年才開始去的，不熟悉。去過幾次後，也開始慢慢找到自己喜歡的攤子。 固定買青菜的有四攤。 每次都會買一卷潤餅當午餐。 之前軟排骨用得很好吃的那攤已不再。 一開始以為較便宜的水果攤，其實是賣很貴的。 每一次的前往，都是一次次的學習與累積。 每一次的採買，都是豐收，都是改變。 在市場裡，能更感受到季節的交替，天氣的變化。 想吃的，想買的，也有可能會失望，找不到，然後學習調整。 有時，老天會教你如何”改變”。 當辛勞努力之後，宇宙允諾的豐盈 最艱苦的工作已完成，只待收割 對於沒有具體勞動的我，哪來的豐收？ 我自己現在是這樣看得，我的豐收，不一定是物品，不一定是具體，不一定是有形。 我的豐收，在於接觸的人，沾染到他們的歡樂，是喜豐收。 我的豐收，在於流淌的事，沾染到這些的人氣，是喜豐收。 我的豐收，在於穿過的想，沾染到腦袋的思考，是喜豐收。 腳程是很緩慢，但越來越有感。 思考是很雜亂，但越理越明白。 欣賞、讚賞自己辛苦後的成果 為這纍纍結果評個高分 當我不一樣，我就是得更加勇敢。 當我不一樣，我就是得更努力闖盪。 當我不一樣，我就是得失敗後馬上思量。 當我不一樣，我就是得事事掛心上，樣樣學精光。 該看的書一大落，沒能有太多時間在感傷。 我已是枚歐巴桑，落淚也不可能有人為我心傷。 好想學習那位女孩好情商。 好想擁有那位學者好智商。 認知到自己不足的困窘，隨著年紀，隨著閱讀，隨著理解別人的一些模樣，更顯得蒼白無力。 心中有點懊惱，怎以往沒能多學習一些。 還好，現在知道了，也有時間，一點一點再累積。 一位媽媽在她兒子開口撒嬌說，晚餐想吃什麼時，馬上豪氣答應。這位媽媽說她有這樣的經濟能力，且兒子撒嬌想要跟她吃飯，有什麼比這更重要，更幸福的事情。 一位大姐在我們一起買水果的攤子前面跟我分享在那個市場哩，她的採買經驗，哪攤的好吃，哪攤的品質好。這是美好的交流。 今天，內心有許多感想，一項項皆像是收成的果實。 在市場看到的，遇到的笑臉，也是收穫。 這些，不是豐收，是什麼。 Alyson's 4/03 Tarot: Harvest (5-57) Question: Theme of my diary entry on 4/02 Card drawn: Harvest I've found that during the two-plus years since I began resting, I've been adjusting, trying to find or build a version of myself that fits the present. In the past, I wasn't afraid because I had my father. Now, I'm afraid, and I have to deal with it myself. In the past, when I hit a low, I wasn't afraid because my father was there. Now, I feel lost, afraid. What should I do? Last year, I kept myself closed at home. This year, I pushed myself out the door. To where? To the market. To the playground. To places where there are people. This is a change I'm very clear about. The first stage of my "Future Diary" is to "change." Change and harvest, one is the cause, the other is the result, and then they become each other's cause and effect. The nine suns of ancient times were a curse. The nine Jupiters of modern times are a blessing. This "Harvest" tarot card makes one think of exuberant feelings, like twirling in a skirt, and then stopping, throwing flowers to celebrate. There are no fresh vegetables in the fridge. I plan to go out for a run today. I started going to this market just last year, so I'm not familiar with it. After going a few times, I've slowly started to find the stalls I like. There are four stalls where I usually buy vegetables. I always buy a roll of pancakes for lunch. The stall where I used to buy delicious soft ribs is no longer there. I initially thought the fruit stall was cheaper, but it's actually quite expensive. Every trip is a learning experience and accumulation. Every purchase is a harvest, a change. In the market, I can feel the changing seasons, the weather. Things I want to eat, want to buy, may be disappointing, unable to find, and then I learn to adjust. Sometimes, heaven teaches you how to "change." After hard work, the universe promises abundance. The most difficult work has been completed, only waiting to harvest. For me, who hasn't done any physical labor, where does the harvest come from? This is how I see it now: my harvest may not be tangible items. My harvest lies in the people I meet, the joy I share with them, is a harvest of joy. My harvest lies in the things I encounter, the enthusiasm I pass on to others, is a harvest of happiness. My harvest lies in the thoughts I have, the insights I gain, is a harvest of wisdom. The journey is slow, but I feel more and more. The thinking is chaotic, but the clearer it becomes. Appreciating and acknowledging the results of my hard work, Giving high marks to these abundant results. When I'm different, I have to be braver. When I'm different, I have to work harder. When I'm different, I have to reflect immediately after failure. When I'm different, I have to care about everything, learn everything thoroughly. A lot of books to read, not enough time to be sentimental. I'm already a middle-aged woman, there's no one to hurt for me when I cry. I really want to learn from that girl's emotional intelligence. I really want to have the intellect of that scholar. Realizing my own shortcomings, as I grow older, as I read, as I understand others' experiences, it becomes more apparent. There's a bit of regret in my heart, why didn't I learn more in the past. Fortunately, I know now, and there is time, slowly accumulating bit by bit. A mother, when her son sweetly asks what he wants for dinner, immediately agrees. She says she has the emotional ability to do this, and her son's desire to have dinner with her is more important and happier than anything else. An older sister shares her shopping experience with me in front of the fruit stall we're buying from together, telling me which stalls have delicious food and good quality. It's a beautiful exchange. Today, there are many thoughts in my heart, each one seems like the fruit of the harvest. The smiling faces I see in the market are also a harvest. If these aren't harvests, then what are they? #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Harvest

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 3/20 Tarot：平衡 Balance

Alyson’s 3/20 Tarot：平衡 Balance https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/143930944 在春分這一天，請宇宙送我一個祝福 ~ 平衡 Balance。 這讓我想到了老話題『人生5顆球』的時間資源和心思的分配議題。 “健康、工作、情感、財富與心靈”，你都是怎麼分配的呢？ 重視工作，很好，也很應該。 要顧好生活七大雜事，柴米油鹽醬醋茶，每一樣都需要工作獲得的報酬去買回。 每個人肩膀上的擔子那樣沉重，時間根本不夠用，金錢也是。 而心靈這檔事，根本是無暇顧及的事情。 有位出家師父曾跟我說，『照顧佛祖前，要先顧好自己的肚子。』 生活穩定是日子裡最基本的的標準。 蠻多人運用時間去賺取更多財富。 很多朋友都知道我最需要增加比重的是”工作”這項了。 因還有夢想，還有目標，所以”退而不休”是我接下來想要達成的情況。 日子裡有盼望，生活裡有期待，時光歲月長河中，有夢，就有動能繼續努力。 有人把生活過成了詩。 有人把歲月過成了一幅畫。 我希望能把人生寫成一篇散文。 輕輕的，清清的，親親的。 不重，不雜，不冷。 On the day of the Spring Equinox, may the universe send me a blessing ~ Balance. This reminds me of the timeless topic of "The Five Balls of Life," regarding the allocation of time, resources, and thoughts. "Health, work, relationships, wealth, and spirituality" – how do you distribute them? Valuing work is important and necessary. Taking care of life's mundane matters, the necessities of life – every item requires the rewards earned from work to acquire. The burden on everyone's shoulders is so heavy, time is simply not enough, and neither is money. As for matters of the spirit, they're often neglected. A monk once told me, "Before tending to the Buddha, tend to your own belly." Stability in life is the most fundamental standard. Many people utilize their time to earn more wealth. Many friends know that what I most need to increase is "work." Because there are still dreams, still goals, so "not giving up" is what I aim to achieve next. With hope in our days, anticipation in our lives, in the river of time and years, where there are dreams, there is the energy to keep striving. Some turn life into poetry. Some turn the years into a painting. I hope to write life as an essay. Gently, clearly, intimately. Not heavy, not cluttered, not cold. #DreamCatcher #Tarot #Tarotreader #Tarotcards #Balance #Dream #Alyson #塔羅 #捕夢人 #平衡 #人生5顆球

2024 0219 今日塔羅：恐懼 Fear

2024 0219 今日塔羅：恐懼 Fear https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/140174380 有多恐懼害怕呢？ 這張恐懼牌卡是聖杯牌組的7號牌 有7個破碎的、骯髒的、長了苔蘚的大小深淺不同的壺和瓶 沉在幽暗的深海裡 燈籠魚躲在縫隙中 沒有勇氣伸出手一探那些瓶子究竟是寶物還是讓人一失足陷入危險的毒物 憂鬱的週一 總是會讓人感覺心口有點悶，有點阻 焦慮、擔憂、煩躁、憂心一起襲來 想到又要開始工作好幾天才能休假 想到又要面對、看到不可愛的人好幾天 一陣陣煩憂 一股股恐慌呀 可，又能如何 骨感的現實就是人生 只能迎頭接球 避不了呀 How fearful can it be? This card of fear is the 7th card of the Holy Grail deck. There are seven broken, dirty, moss-covered pots and bottles of different sizes and depths sinking into the dark depths of the sea. Lanternfish hide in the crevices. There's no courage to reach out and see if those bottles are treasures or dangerous poisons that can lead one astray. It's a melancholic Monday, Always making one feel a bit stifled, a bit blocked. Anxiety, worry, restlessness, concern all come crashing in, Thinking about having to work for several days before getting a break, Thinking about having to face, see unlikable people for several days, Waves of annoyance, Ripples of panic. But, what can one do? The stark reality is life, You can only face it head-on, Can't avoid it, can you? #DreamCatcher #Tarot #Tarotreader #Tarotcards #Fear #Cups #Dream #Alyson #塔羅 #捕夢人 #情緒 #聖杯 #恐懼

2024 0308 今日塔羅：悲傷 Sorrow

2024 0308 今日塔羅：悲傷 Sorrow https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/142914343 今天是我們的婦女節 ~ 我們的刑法對於”婦女”是這樣定義範圍的： 婦女專指女性而言，從而，本罪之適格客體，遂僅以下列三者為限，分別為： 一.年齡已滿二十歲之婦女。 二.未滿二十歲但已結婚之婦女。 三.未婚且尚未成年，但並無家庭及其他監督權人保護之女子。 國語辭典則是這樣說明的：婦人女子的總稱。《禮記．曲禮下》：「居喪不言樂，祭事不言凶，公庭不言婦女。」 我認為，每一個個體的女孩、女性，就是婦女。 問 ~ 喜歡妳現在的樣子嗎？ 喜歡妳現在的生活嗎？ 很多人說，女人，要成為母親後，才算擁有完整的人生。 而我卻認為，女人，要成為完整的自己，也就擁有自己的人生。 是怎樣的角色，會被稱為什麼稱呼，是很重要。 稱呼，是特別的，是具有一種身分意義的。 但並非唯一定義人生勝利女人的標準。 幸福，才重要。 美滿，才重要。 生活，我喜歡的是歲月靜好。 日子，我喜歡的是寧靜致遠。 人生，我喜歡的是知足常樂。 在屬於我們的日子，犒賞自己，愛自己，感謝自己。 Today is our Women's Day~ Our criminal law defines "women" in the following way: Women specifically refer to females, and thus, the eligible subjects of this offense are limited to the following three categories: 1. Women over the age of twenty. 2. Women under the age of twenty but already married. 3. Unmarried and underage girls without family or other guardian protection. The Mandarin Chinese dictionary explains it as: A collective term for women and girls. "Book of Rites: Etiquette" says: "During mourning, do not speak of joy; during sacrifices, do not speak of misfortune; in the court of the ruler, do not speak of women." I believe that every individual girl and woman is a woman. Questions: Do you like yourself as you are now? Do you like your life now? Many people say that a woman only has a complete life after becoming a mother. But I believe that a woman becomes complete when she becomes her true self, thus having her own life. What kind of role deserves what kind of title is important. Titles are special and carry a sense of identity. But they do not define the standard of a successful woman's life. Happiness is what matters. Fulfillment is what matters. In life, what I like is peace and tranquility. In days, what I like is serenity and distance. In life, what I like is contentment and joy. On our special day, reward yourself, love yourself, and thank yourself. #Tarot #Tarotreader #Tarotcards #Regenerator #Sorrow #Cups #Dream #Alyson #塔羅 #捕夢人 #悲傷 #聖杯 #情緒

It just so happens that today, I'm going on an outing with classmates and the teacher from one of the courses I took earlier. As they say, "Three people walking together will surely have my teacher among them." Moreover, our group loves to chat and gossip, so there will undoubtedly be many insights and takeaways. Growth, reaching towards the sky. Today also coincides with the beginning of spring, symbolizing the start of a year in action. Making a solemn commitment to oneself, how the execution will unfold throughout the year, aiming for outstanding results by the end of the year. #GROWTH #DreamCatcher #Tarot #Tarotreader #Tarotcards #Wands #Dream #Alyson #塔羅 #捕夢人 #成長 #權杖

2024 0312 今日塔羅：改變 Change

2024 0312 今日塔羅：改變 Change https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/143224060 樹枝冒新芽，花兒狂綻放，你的心裡是否也開著花？ 春天 ~ 送走了冬，讓人調養生息的緩冬，揮別了已成過去式的舊年。 迎來了風，蒲公英的種子隨風起而飛，因風停而落。 就這樣，落地生根了，在遠方。 就這樣種下為遠處的你，我心中虔誠的祈禱。 下起了雨，滋養著大地，大地之母剛舒醒，還在慵懶之際，天，已回應她這年的新訊息。 春神來了，世間開始蛻變換新裝。 脫去老舊，腐爛的沉痾，調整、適應現實是自然本性，非關故意，非關刻意。 在群中，做人，做事，難免得違自己本心原意。 記得自己的初心。 謹守自己的初衷。 圓融，非僅個人，是關眾人。 圓融，不是趨炎附勢，不是迎合討好。 改變，如三月的輕風，自然入心，愜意入日，悠然入人。 改變，如三月的花朵，生機如林，燦爛如詩，繽紛如畫。 改變，如三月的枝枒，新綠似嫩，小巧似寶，可愛似你。 Branches sprout new buds, flowers burst into exuberance; is your heart also in bloom? Spring ~ Ushers away winter, allowing for recuperation and bidding farewell to the past year now in the past tense. Welcoming the wind, dandelion seeds take flight with it and settle where the wind ceases. Thus, they take root, far away. Thus, I plant my sincere prayers for you in the distance. Rain falls, nourishing the earth; Mother Earth just awakens from her slumber, still in her laziness, while the heavens respond to her new message this year. The spirit of spring has arrived, and the world begins to transform and don new attire. Shedding the old, decaying ailments, adjusting, adapting to reality is the nature of things, unrelated to intention or deliberate effort. In society, in our actions, it's inevitable to contradict our true intentions. Remember your original aspirations. Adhere to your initial intentions. Harmony extends beyond the individual; it involves everyone. Harmony isn't about bending with the wind or seeking approval. Change, like the gentle breeze of March, naturally seeps into the heart, comfortably blending with the day, peacefully mingling with people. Change, like the flowers of March, teeming with vitality, radiant as poetry, vibrant as a painting. Change, like the branches of March, fresh green like tender leaves, petite like treasures, adorable like you. #DreamCatcher #Tarot #Tarotreader #Tarotcards #Change #Worlds #Dream #Alyson #塔羅 #捕夢人 #改變 #地球 #物質 #行動

2024 0301 公告 ANNOUNCEMENT

2024 0301 公告 ANNOUNCEMENT https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/142148401 自2024.3.1起，週六、週日與放假日，暫停塔羅閱讀。 首先，要先給自己鼓掌，喝采。 做得非常好，連續二個月，即使休假，即使出國遊玩，每天都有如計畫，如實，如時得閱讀塔羅牌，並且設計讀牌心得卡，及寫下讀牌紀錄。 下週，要找個機會，鼓勵、激勵與慰勞自己。 為何決定2024年3月1日起，暫停週末假日與放假日的塔羅閱讀呢？ 這兩個月，我每天都在思考，要如何呈現最適合的塔羅讀牌，不管是心得卡上的圖案選擇，文字句子，都再三思酌，加上閱讀塔羅牌時的紀錄，說真實的，這是一件耗心力與耗時的工作。 人，總是如此，在放鬆休假時，大部分是不會需要，也不會想要任何方式的指引與提醒。 做了這樣的決定，塔羅牌抽到”先知Seer” 顯現是內在世界的具體結果。 看見，運用智慧，把現有事業願景推向更高格局。 神聖的儀式，充滿療癒，也開啟靈性的道途。 塔羅閱讀以外，應該也要充實知識與智慧的思考。 Starting from March 1st, 2024, Tarot readings will be suspended on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays. Firstly, let's give ourselves a round of applause, cheers. You've done exceptionally well for two consecutive months. Even during vacations or travels abroad, you've managed to stick to the Tarot readings diligently, every day, as planned and on time. You've even designed insight cards and kept records of your readings. Next week, make sure to find an opportunity to encourage, motivate, and reward yourself. Why the decision to suspend Tarot readings on weekends and holidays starting from March 1st, 2024? For these two months, I've been contemplating daily on how to present the most suitable Tarot readings. Whether it's the choice of imagery on the insight cards or the wording of sentences, everything has been meticulously considered. Along with documenting the readings, truth be told, it's been mentally and time-consuming work. People tend to be like this. During relaxation and vacation, they usually neither need nor want any form of guidance or reminders. Making this decision, drawing the "Seer" card, indicates a tangible outcome in the inner world. Seeing, utilizing wisdom to propel existing career visions to higher levels. Sacred rituals, full of healing, also open spiritual paths. Beyond Tarot readings, it's essential to enrich knowledge and engage in thoughtful contemplation. #DreamCatcher #Tarot #Tarotreader #Tarotcards #Seer #Wands #Dream #Alyson #塔羅 #捕夢人 #先知 #權杖 #信念
