Blessings and easeful entry into new year for one and all!
Offering the first TULKU ORACLE reading for the collective— 2022
JANUARY—12. SHIVA SHAKTI
Teaching
The teaching in this card is that of balance and timing. Shiva Shakti is the dance of nature, from source to creation, and this mantra reminds you that it is your dance as well. Creation without gestation never happens, and there is always a right time for things to unfold. There is an elegant balance within you, and to access it you need only remember that breathing without pause is not possible. The cycles of rest and activity are all around us and both must be honored. Look at how these cycles play out in your life and focus on this balance now. A powerful creative force is fed by inspiration and contemplation. You are now at the doorway where Shiva and Shatki meet. There is a powerful spark here, as well as deep and fluid waters of merging and integration. You can bring your consciousness into union with creativity and expression through stillness and breath. Watch the precious birth of your soul calling into this world to be shared with the lives of others.
FEBRUARY — 20. HEART ON FIRE
Teaching
The energy of fire is courage, joy, connection, compassion, and love. When it lives in our hearts, we experience the joy we yearn for every moment of our lives. It is the energy of fire that dances in us and fills us with brightness and awe when we are fall in love. This card is about nurturing a passionate, courageously open heart that embodies all of these qualities without holding back. To live from this place, it is necessary to nourish and tend the fire. For this, you must commit to keeping it bright and alive through self-love. This is what ignites the fire within. Through your efforts, your bright fire will naturally become a beacon and inspiration to others.
MARCH—39. GANESH REVERSED
Reversed
It may be that you are feeling obstructed in your efforts towards creating something new, or you may feel you do not have the support you need in bringing your dreams to fruition. Know that there is a doorway or threshold you must cross to access greater flow – where what you have to offer can be received. It may be that what it is you want to initiate is not fully clear in your mind and that you need more time to bring your vision to clarity. Be patient with yourself. If this is the case, call on Ganesh to help remove any obstruction to your vision and to help reveal the direction and calling that is yours to follow.
APRIL — 25. CROSS
Teaching
If you were to draw a line linking the different outer points of this cross, you would have a circle that could be turned in any direction and look the same. Each element within the circle has different qualities that are not hierarchical but rather contribute in unique and diverse ways to a richness and balance. The cross is a reminder of your connection to life in its different forms and expressions. You can look at the truth of this from the physical earth point of view as well as from an energetic perspective – all directions are equally important and valuable. Where all things intersect is the heart. Orienting your perspective from this place, you can create a life connected to the sacred in everything.
MAY — 46. VAJRAYOGINI
Teaching
As human beings, we live in the realm of passion, and Vajrayogini is the very essence of what it means to exist in this realm. Find your joy, your sharp ability to cut out useless attachments, and an exuberant wildness capable of walking over everything that has held you back. Vajrayogini’s message is that when you stop to appreciate the brilliance of what is right in front of you right now, your inner knowing and pure awareness become one. When you open yourself completely to every feeling that moves through you, to your senses and how they are perceiving your experience, devoid of labeling or defining any of it, you are fed with your own knowing. This allows you to trust yourself and how you move in the world. It is not only a connection with your wild nature, but it connects you with the freest, truest part of every other being.
JUNE — 31. HUMMINGBIRD REVERSED
Reversed
If you have drawn Hummingbird in reverse, maybe you are walking instead of flying. Are you holding yourself back? Are you making yourself small by wearing camouflage instead of showing your true colors? Do you feel stuck in one place because you’ve forgotten how freely you can move in any direction you choose? From wherever you are in at the moment, Hummingbird’s arrival shows that it doesn’t take much for you to shift direction. Remember the gifts you have at your disposal and the joy that is your birthright. Put on some color and allow yourself to take a different path...one of discovery and magic.
JULY —50. EYE OF HORUS
Teaching
The lesson from the Eye of Horus card is to see with both eyes and, in return, to allow yourself to be seen. How powerful it is to be witnessed by the great and ancient eyes of the sun and the moon, by the ancestors, by that which is unseen, and even by the essence of life itself. This vulnerable authenticity brings great healing. These are the eyes of benevolence and compassion. Revealing ourselves to them opens us to receiving and accepting unconditional love and forgiveness. These eyes show us the basic goodness of our hearts and the preciousness of who we are. When we connect to being seen by life in this way, our perception is transformed. Our eyes become those of compassion and love – not only towards ourselves, but towards others as well. The invitation here is to find alignment between these types of vision, and when that happens we receive the gift of deep trust in ourselves and others.
AUGUST —10. RITAM
Teaching
This card teaches us about the pulse, the order, underlying everything that happens. Mother Nature is our ultimate teacher, and connecting with her is a way for us to refine our perception of Ritam. Listen, the wind is blowing in new information! Look, there are messages in the clouds! Sit still, by a candle or by a fire, and your path will be illuminated. What animal or plant is appearing to you to catch your eye? Is it witnessing you, just as you are seeing it? What messages does it bring? Not only in nature, but in every aspect of the world, you will find that you are surrounded by magic, synchronicities, and messages if you pay attention.
SEPTEMBER—40. LAXMI REVERSED
Reversed
It could be that you are experiencing a lack of flow or abundance. Perhaps you feel blinded or stuck in one or more areas of your life. If this is the case, search for divine light through the wise and watchful eyes of owl. Listen for the ways in which you can beckon flow and fruition. Engage in exchange with Laxmi through prayer, ritual, or visualization, consciously offering your love and sweetness. Remain open to the gifts of abundance she bestows. Believe in possibility and trust. Allow yourself to release the conditions you have in your mind for your wellbeing, and simply ask from your heart to be filled with joy. Acknowledge the places where you may feel stagnant, unworthy, or unfortunate, but regard them full of the compassionate light of love flowing from Laxmi’s heart to yours.
OCTOBER —42. BEAR EAGLE GODDESS
Teaching
This oracle helps us find a way to be generous with the world. It centers us in a new, reciprocal paradigm for teacher and healer. She can wear and embody the powers and gifts, but she cannot own them or assume they will arrive at her beck and call. They must be respected as gifts or offerings, with the commitment to honor the responsibility of sharing them and being of service to others. The gifts given to and generated by the medicine woman emerge from her time in the cave. The ancient, womblike cavities carved into the mountain are shelter and sanctuary, treasure and mystery. They are the place of the Great Mother and can be dark and scary with unfathomable depths. This is where people and animals are born and where they go to die. The cave is a feminine presence and a place of the intersection of life and death, an archetype in and of itself. This oracle holds the receiver of such gifts to the sacredness of purpose they reflect, and to the commitment to honor them, as well as to honor the two aspects of cave: the place of becoming and the place of dissolution.
NOVEMBER —44. MEDICINE BUDDHA REVERSED
Reversed
Perhaps you are suffering, in a healing crisis, or simply not finding the peace you need at this time. The Medicine Buddha counsels you to gently honor your efforts, treat yourself with kindness, and maintain a hefty dose of patient perseverance. One place to tap into the well- spring of healing is nature. Make a daily practice of interacting with the natural world. Leaning up against a tree, spending time barefoot with the earth under your feet, laying on a blanket in the grass – all these things are very simple ways to support ourselves. Our environment offers us peace and compassion as visible and powerful companions. The soft light of gratitude arises. When in emotional pain, nature can hold us and act as a compassionate witness. In the wild world, we can cry out our grief, share our fear with a river, express anger by giving a good shout, or throw a rock to move the frustration out of our body. Let this environment cleanse you and ground you. Be gentle with yourself and find the compassionate smile of the Medicine Buddha as your witness and ally at this time.
DECEMBER —11. MOKSHA
Teaching
This card teaches us about the power of letting go and discovering the joy of being free. Your effort now should be to stop struggling. Notice if you need to express strong or uncomfortable emotions that you’ve been holding on to, and allow yourself to feel and express them. Instead of suppressing or denying, honor these feelings as a part of your natural makeup as a human being. Moksha reminds us that emotions are meant to flow. They ride on the constantly changing tides of our lives, and once an experience has shifted, the emotions change too. Some emotions – like grief – can stick around for a long time and move slowly. Consciously engage in the idea of letting go and creating flow. Support the healing process by forgiving yourself and others. Find gratitude and acceptance in your heart for your life, just as it is. From this place of softheartedness and receptivity, you step consciously into the work of release, and are rewarded by Moksha – sweet joy and a greater lightness of being.
