Reframing Obstacles

TRUST. an Oracle, by EARTHMOON MAGIC, LLC.

Today, we have a beautiful poem that accompanies this card, which assists us in reframing how we consider challenges and obstacles in our lives. They are not keeping us from becoming; rather, they are supporting us in remembering who we are so that we may embody our natural state of being through our experiences.

Indeed, this is why our Higher Self allows us to have and assists us through challenges and obstacles.

After reading the message of this card, do you experience anything differently when you encounter an obstacle or challenge in your life?

Are you able to relax and open when things do not happen on the time schedule that you would prefer?

As you take a closer look from various perspectives at the challenges or obstacles you perceive, what do you notice about yourself?

you see a wall

a door shut tight

a path that crumbles

when you walk.

and so you wonder:

was this ever meant to be?

this is an invitation

to see differently,

to move differently,

to become something

you could not have become,

to learn something

you could not have learned

without this obstacle.

if life were only easy

every door would swing open

effortlessly in your hands

every wish would be instantly

fulfilled.

but there would be no real joy in that.

the obstacle is not the thing in

your way.

it is the way,

the way that builds you

into the person

you’ve longed for all this time

to be.
