It Comes Down to Sacred Practice and IntuitionBy Derek John Thomas / July 7, 2023 Do you have a sacred practice? It doesn’t matter what it is, really. It could be meditation from a tradition learned in your religious tradition like Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Jainism, etc. It could be prayer. It could be sacred ritual that is performed on a regular basis, from a tradition or one that is created by the practitioner. I’m sure I”m leaving some out, but you get the gist. Do you have one of those? If you do that is wonderful. These practices can be healing, transformative, and uplifting to body, mind, and spirit. Many of us, though, once the practice is over, waltz out into our everyday lives and do the same things we have always done. We shout through the windshield of our cars at the person who cut us off or took our parking space. We grumble under our breath when we are asked to do something at work. We have a small panic attack when a bill arrives in the mail. If we are unable to carry our spiritual practice out into the world, if it stays in our sacred space or on our meditation or yoga mats, we receive only a fraction of the benefit possible from those practices. And if we receive only a fraction of the benefit, so do all of the people around us and the rest of the planet. This week’s tarot and oracle spread emphasizes the importance of bringing our spiritual practice out into the rest of our lives. Coupled with our intuition, we can become the magicians we were born to be.If you want a private reading from me, send me an email to: thehangedmaninthemoon@gmail.com
