Melina is intricately connected with the concept of water. As you can see from the beautiful images on today’s card. Her message for you is one of caution though. SHe’s saying you don’t have all the information you need. You need to hold yourself back for a while. You need to dam up your urge to keep forging ahead and take a look at what’s beneath the murky waters. But in order to do that you need to hang on and save water first.
Life is often referred to as a river. And in a way you’re like your own little stream that adds to the river of life. But sometimes you need to dam up your river and wait. Because by saving water in a dam, what you’re actually doing is creating a surplus of energy, so that when you are ready to move forward you have everything you need to forge ahead and create the path you were destined to follow.
Sometimes these dams happen naturally, but unfortunately that isn’t the case now. Right now you’re going to have to work on saving up that water and letting the muddy waters settle until you can see clearly.
Okay, so building a dam isn’t the easiest thing in the world. Beavers make it look easy. In reality it takes civil engineers years to learn the finer details of building dams that not only save water, but stand the test of time.
And while it may feel counter intuitive to stop the flow of your energy at this point in time it is vitally necessary that you save your most precious commodity for when you really need it. Sure, you can just go ahead without pausing to let the mud clear… But that isn’t going to get you where you want to go any faster than pausing to think for a while.
So here are a few things you can do to make sure you’re saving all the water you can at this point in your life. So that when the time is right you can open the flood gates and move even the most stubborn landscapes in a way that matches your own unique flow.
The best way to start building a dam is to build a bridge to get over a ravine. You’re likely facing some challenges at the moment, which is making your life feel a little murky. But by building a bridge and getting over the troubled waters of your past you will be able to get a bird’s eye view of exactly what needs to be done right now for you to conserve your energy until the time is right for you to act.
So here are a few things you can do to make sure you’re saving all the water you can at this point in your life. So that when the time is right you can open the flood gates and move even the most stubborn landscapes in a way that matches your own unique flow.
This is one of the first things people are taught when they learn how to save water. But in this context it means turning off the sad emotions that keep you from seeing things clearly. We all fall into the trap of letting our emotions flow, especially when we are feeling confused or overwhelmed. But the best thing you can do for yourself right now is to turn off that tap and take a good, rational look at what’s really going on in your life.
Once you’ve stopped built a bridge and stopped your emotional taps from adding to the problem, it’s time to start constructing the dam. To do this you need to think about what it is you really want to spend your energy on in the future - so you know exactly how much water you’re going to have to save.
You might want to ask experts for their advice here. So if there’s anyone that has accomplished what you want to accomplish, now is a great time to get hold of them and ask them how much energy and perseverance it took for them to accomplish their goal.
Once you’ve constructed your dam to conserve as much of your life force energy as you can it’s time to wait for it to fill up. You can help it fill faster by doing things that nourish your soul and make you feel alive. The more you focus on filling yourself up with positivity the more energy you will have to unleash when the time is right.
You’ll know when the time is right, because all the turmoil and murky indecision that’s currently making you doubt yourself will disappear. That’s when you know you’ve saved enough water and it’s time to rush ahead and let your life-river flow again.
