Today, I wanted to deviate from my readings to talk about energy flow and financial blockage. I found that for years I held on to money and resources that I had too tightly for fear of losing what I did have. There’s been financial downfalls in my life and that just deepened the anxiety around money. I blocked the flow by holding on too tightly and that never works. It doesn’t relieve the anxiety. It just makes it worse. For years, I carried this fear with me and blockage was awful. I was miserable.
It’s been in recent years that I learned about energy flow and the way that it works with finances specifically. I began to open up the flow of resources. I gave of my resources while allowing resources to flow to me. That relieved my fears and I stopped controlling things and just let them happen. Now, that doesn’t mean that I still don’t grapple with financial fears totally but when the fear sets in I sit with the emotion, acknowledge it and then release it.
I pulled some tarot cards that represent tight control of finances which is the 4 of Pentacles. I call him the greedy grabber. He holds on too tightly to his coin in fear of losing it. This card doesn’t have to have a completely negative aspect to it. I can represent an astute financial person as well but when I see it, I think of control. It needs a balance of energy and that’s where the Temperance card comes into play. Everything is in need of balance. Without balance, there is an uneven flow of energy which could result in chaos.
So, there you have it. When you open up your energy flow especially around money and finances, you allow both the giving of your resources as well receiving them. Give it a try and see what happens.
These cards are from the tarot deck of Llewellyn’s Classic Tarot by Barbara Moore.
