Daily Mindfulness The Devil/Chicory

The Devil
Goodness is this the perfect depiction for the Devil card? Ramsay Bolton "shudder." Ramsay is the epitome of the darkest aspects of the human nature. The chains in the picture show the control and dependency the Devil can cause.  The things that cause addictions and dependency, restrictions and excess - they can give short term pleasure but in the long run are very damaging. The important thing to remember is that we can choose to lift the chains and walk away. It is our choice and in our power to do so.

Chicory/Sustain
Sustain speaks to the usefulness and also the wide availability of the chicory plant, especially in difficult times.  This is a great example of how one thing can sustain another.  There will be times when we need help from others and in turn they will need help from us.  It isn't always easy to ask for help but know it is there and to return that favor when you can. We may not always have the answers but just being there can make a huge difference.

So today look closely at how your life is going. Are you finding yourself stuck in old habits and can't seem to find a way to break out of them?  Remember that you are stronger than you think and you have the power to walk away from anything that no longer serves you and if you need some help ask for it! Your tribe is always there for you and they can give you that boost you need! You are never alone!
