Harvest Time
The Earth & Sky Oracle, by Sophie Bashford
Today, we are greeted by Lugh, the Celtic Warrior God/King of Sunlight and Harvest, who is associated with the Tuatha De Danann. He is known for his mastery across disciplines. His appearance today corresponds with the festival of Lughnasadh that takes place on August 1st.
(You truly cannot make this stuff up folks ;-). I received this deck in the mail on July 31st, and this is the first card I pulled from this deck - asking for the best energy message for August 1st.)
Lugh comes forward today to remind us that the seeds we have planted are coming to fruition and the time of harvest is upon us in the coming days. This is a sacred moment that invites us into awe, wonder, and, especially, gratitude. We are and will be nourished and sustained by the patient energies we have planted, watered, and stewarded.
Lugh’s message is: “Keep going just a little longer! It will be worth the wait. The manifestation of your hard work and perseverance will exceed your expectations.”
Not surprisingly, this message comes to us just before the Lion’s Gate Portal of August 8th. We are already in these energies and they will extend for several days beyond August 8th. This is a powerful window of manifestation. Thus, the nudge to relax, listen, trust, and keep going is powerfully timed.
As we open further to receive the massive amounts of light and energies bombarding the Earth, we are reminded that manifestation has also shifted. While things are manifesting ever more quickly, consistency remains the key. This is consistency of your frequency. Said in other way, allowing the feeling you wish to experience, rather than a specific form a manifestation will take will allow you to receive even more than you might conceive. Alignment of your energy behind the feeling you wish to create and allowing are the most effective and power-filled things you can “do.”
This is also a reminder to us that we are being invited into our mastery through this ascension process. We benefit from consistency, patience, listening, and especially daily spiritual practice - in whatever form works best for you.
TRUST that your harvest is on the way.
Lugh invites you to use the following mantra as part of your practice today.
“All my efforts are seen by the Universe. My harvest is on its way.”
In addition, take time to quiet the mind and reflect upon what you wish to manifest in your life and why. Surround these manifestations in golden light and visualize that light expanding. Allow yourself to feel that your manifestation has already been realized. Express your gratitude. Allow these energies to uplift and guide your day as you step forward in trust and abundance.
