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.
