A Heart... so long imprisoned by pain and fear, shines brilliantly with its hard-won wings of freedom spread wide, sits at the center. This courageous heart embraces its crown, as it has finally reclaimed its power and rightful place upon the throne at the center of the Soul, the center of its Universe. A Lotus Flower... spreads graciously below the heart, the center petals curling themselves around the base of the heart, reaching up offering their gentle support. Lotus has such a desire for life that it patiently waited through thousands of years of dormancy for its chance to germinate. Even once in bloom, each night the flower sinks down under the surface of the murky water and mud it is rooted in, yet each morning it emerges once again, no trace of where it has been, to offer its beauty to the world. Lotus knows well the Heart’s difficult journey through the darkness, and it endured to finally earn those wings that would liberate it out of suffering and into its own power so it could reclaim its crown and throne at the center of Soul. An Arrow... points up from below the Lotus, aimed with precision at Heart’s center. This is an arrow that will never miss its intended mark, for this arrow sits poised to fly on the tightly drawn bow of the great goddess Artemis. The silvery light cast by the moon is the only illumination this divine huntress requires, as this goddess is so pure of motive that she is in need of little more guidance than her intuition. By moonlight she hunts down her heart’s desires. Her success is ensured, as she follows her inner guidance that is born out of purity of motive and intention, which is backed by her immense focus, determination, and stamina. Her arrow reminds the Heart to learn the lessons she offers up. A Moon... sits below the bow of Artemis, forming the very foundation the Heart sits upon. The Moon, although seen in the night sky above, is actually that which lies below, or more accurately , deep within. The Moon is the Heart’s foundation, as the Heart sits on the throne of the Soul, because the Moon is the realm of the subconscious and intuition. It is where our deepest fears can hide. If the Heart is to rule from love and wisdom and purity of motive, it must be like Artemis and ensure the moonlight it sees by is clear, so it may trust the inner guidance with which it navigates. A Hawk... spreads her great wings wide, soaring high above the Heart, keenly observing all below. Hawk spirals up and up, riding the thermal and then glides effortlessly through the blue, bearing the great sun upon her wings. She flies between the worlds, a messenger of spirit. Although she brings the intuitive messages from what lies beyond, she is very much of the living world and the sun, the light of consciousness, the source of light and life, representing power, strength, and vitality, shines its warmth down upon her strong back. She reminds us to watch and observe, seeing from her high perspective, and then at the perfect time to take swift and decisive action. A Pendulum... clutched in the strong claws of Hawk floats above Heart’s center. The pendulum carried by Hawk speaks to trusting in our inner guidance, but to always balance that with our conscious observations and thoughts. Pendulum reminds Heart to always trust its personal truth and speak it from the power of inner authority. It tells Heart to integrate inner guidance with consciously cultivated knowledge so wisdom is created. A Pair of Antlers... flank the pendulum spreading their grandeur just below the wings of Hawk. The antlers are the crown of the majestic stag, made of solid bone of the natural earthly world, their sharp tines grow up, reaching towards the heavens, up towards the sky through which Hawk soars as a messenger between worlds, reaching towards spirit. They send the stability of the earth and the Divine Masculine, the Horned God, up to support Hawk. The antlers provide this connection to earth and masculine energy to the Heart. They represent spiritual authority. A Pair of Doves... hover gracefully just above Heart’s wings, yet just below the majestic antlers. Heart, at long last liberated, having stepped into its full power and claimed its rightful position upon the throne of the Soul, also carries the responsibility that comes with its newly acquired power and authority, and to assert that power with wisdom and compassion. The doves remind Heart to strive to always view souls through the light of love - higher love - unconditional love. The doves are the Divine Messengers of Mother Mary, carrying the soft, nurturing, healing energy she sends, and reminding Heart of its ability to gift this world by always embodying peace, hope, compassion, and a higher, spiritual love. ..... A Prayer... May this heart, liberated, proudly sitting upon the throne of the Soul, always come from its inner guidance and authority, in its complete power. May it see from a higher perspective, yet with keen observation, the truth of reality easily made visible under the bright rays of the light of consciousness, while integrating the subtle messages from spirit and intuition. May it follow its inner guidance and hunt with focus and purity of motive its deepest desires and may its arrows always fly straight and true landing their mark. May this Heart always see others through the light of higher love, rather than through the harshness of judgement. May this Heart, seated upon its throne at the center of the Soul, honor the responsibility of power and authority, integrating the worlds above and below, the light and the dark, with wisdom, compassion, kindness and grace, and when necessary acting swiftly and decisively with precision and authority. ~Kasey
