Alyson’s 4/08 Tarot：宇宙 Universe (10-57)

Alyson’s 4/08 Tarot：宇宙 Universe (10-57) 問題：我4/07的未來日記主題 抽牌：宇宙 Universe 再次驗證了塔羅的神奇。 在10天前計畫將塔羅抽牌與撰寫未來日記兩者結合在一起。 那天晚上呼喊宇宙，請宇宙指引未來四週的每週主題。 接著抽出每個主題各七天的副題。 昨天寫著第二週的主題是「死亡Death」時，我還未發覺。 直到剛剛，看了之前塔羅抽牌紀錄，看到今天的副題是「宇宙Universe」，我的心情再度激動，又想流淚哭泣了。 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145838932 今天我們一群朋友去探望一位已遠去的朋友。 在今年的三月中旬我們才知道他已離去許久。 陸陸續續我們討論著要去看他，大家橋著可以一同前往的日期，今日。 我還是像過往一樣，工作的事情與私人的事情，思緒是分開，沒有連結在一起。 其實這是個很難說明清楚的狀態。 明明，兩個面向是共用同一顆腦袋，同一個人的思緒，和在同一個行事曆角逐著各自可以佔有的比例。 對我來說，兩者之間能有機會串連在一起也就只有敲時間，橋行事曆上的空白處而已。 所以，在這稍早之前，我從未注意到今日塔羅的牌卡，與今日的私人行程連在起來。 今天早上，我並沒有時間去想，去寫今日的「未來日記」。 除了急著出門以外，最主要的是我沒有那份心情。 我不敢想像朋友長眠所在的樹葬地方情景，也不知道自己會是怎樣的心情。 我只記得包包裡要多放衛生紙，帶點餅乾、巧克力一起去。 原本計畫搭乘大眾交通工具去，卻在出發前兩天敵不過非常懶惰的自己。 這兩年多來，我把自己寵得是越來越嬌氣。 不想太辛勞的事情，就不勉強自己。 另一位朋友在臉書上寫著想念。 過往的對話，大部分我都想不起來。 我只記得我今天的哥斯大黎加，大嘴鳥莊園手沖咖啡，因另一朋友去詢問老闆關於咖啡的問題，打亂了老闆的節奏，結果我成了苦主，喝到一杯又苦又澀的咖啡。 就像是想到朋友已離開這件事情的心情。 我在自己挖掘的情緒坑洞裡掙扎。 我在樹梢被風吹過的搖晃裡擺盪。 宇宙說，這都是過程。 存在，是還在路上。 曾存在，是已完成。 死亡與再生，在宇宙奧妙平衡裡，分秒持續運動著。 他一人的離去，你幾人的難過，是滄海一粟，是江海一滴。 我的心情低落，是蒼白。 在浩瀚中，根本看不出來。 宇宙說， 有感受，有覺知，是存在與擁有，非失落。 應該要明白，要懂得，因擁有才會感到痛。 花開花落。 潮起潮落。 有機會能說聲”再會”，是很好的告別。 走過人間，終會一別。 不枉相遇相識這一場。 Alyson’s 4/08 Tarot: Universe (10-57) Question: The theme of my future diary for 4/07 Card drawn: Universe Once again, the magic of tarot is validated. Ten days ago, I decided to combine tarot card drawing with writing my future diary. That evening, I called out to the universe, asking it to guide the themes for each week of the next four weeks. I then drew sub-themes for each week, spanning seven days each. Yesterday, as I wrote that the theme for the second week was "Death," I didn't realize its significance. It wasn't until just now, as I reviewed my previous tarot card draws and saw that today's sub-theme is "Universe," that my emotions were once again stirred, and tears threatened to fall. Today, a group of friends and I went to visit a friend who has already departed. It wasn't until mid-March of this year that we learned of his passing. We had been discussing visiting him intermittently, bridging the dates when we could all go together, which happened to be today. As usual, I compartmentalized my thoughts between work and personal matters. It's a difficult state to articulate. Although both aspects share the same mind and calendar, they seem disconnected, with the only opportunity for connection being the occasional overlap in my schedule. Thus, until just earlier, I hadn't noticed the connection between today's tarot card and my personal agenda. This morning, I didn't have the time or the mindset to think about or write today's "future diary." Aside from rushing out the door, I simply wasn't in the right headspace. I dare not imagine the scene at the tree burial site where our friend rests, nor do I know what emotions to expect from myself. All I remember is to pack extra tissues in my bag and bring some biscuits and chocolate along. Originally, I planned to take public transportation, but two days before departure, my overwhelming laziness got the better of me. Over these past couple of years, I've grown increasingly pampered. If it's something I don't feel like exerting effort for, I simply won't force myself. Another friend wrote on Facebook expressing their longing. Most of our past conversations escape my memory. All I can recall is my time in Costa Rica, at the Toucan Rescue Ranch, hand-brewing coffee, while another friend asked the owner coffee-related questions, disrupting the owner's rhythm and resulting in me being served a bitter cup of coffee. It's akin to the feeling of realizing that a friend has departed. I'm struggling within the emotional pits I've dug for myself. I sway amidst the swaying of the treetops in the breeze. The universe says, this is all part of the process. Existence is still on its journey. What once existed is now complete. Death and rebirth, within the mysterious balance of the universe, continue to move forward. The departure of one person, the sorrow of a few, is but a drop in the ocean. My melancholy is insignificant amidst the vastness. The universe says, to feel, to be aware, is to exist and possess, not to lose. One should understand, should comprehend, that pain comes from having had something. Flowers bloom and wither. Tides rise and fall. The chance to say "farewell" is a gracious parting. Having traversed this earthly realm, farewells are inevitable. Our meeting and acquaintance were not in vain. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYurSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Universe

Alyson’s 4/07 Tarot：死亡 Death (9-57)

Alyson’s 4/07 Tarot：死亡 Death (9-57) 問題：我4/06的未來日記主題 抽牌：死亡 Death 今天的塔羅牌是我未來日記第二週的主題：死亡Death。 死亡，對我來說，很多時候，不是肉身是否存在。 死亡，對我來說，大部分時，是心，是靈魂，是意識是否已不在。 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145751290 曾經，不只一次，我問 ~ 為何，我在這世上？ 為何，我還在這世上？ 既然讓我活著，為何要把我很愛的人都帶走？ 既然讓我活在，為何讓我沒能擁有很愛的人，而對方也很愛我？ 去年認識的朋友說，在相識過程中，他看到我的努力，但認為沒看到我的盡力，即使是面對朋友，我都像是保有大部分的清醒，沒因友情而感到微醺。 我微笑以對。 心，早已支離破碎，已無餘心可盡力。 一次一次被人辜負的重傷。 一次一次家人離去的心傷。 傷痕累累，還有一些心力讓我苟延殘喘的活著。 我休著長假。 不明白的人好生羨慕。 家人好友是心疼呵護。 他們理解，我在試著原諒自己。 他們懂得，我在盡情釋放自己。 他們包容，我在允許任性自己。 他們明白，我在辛苦拼湊自己。 他們體諒，我在努力修復自己。 經歷過類似死亡的心情，很多事情，不再憂鬱。 在死亡的面前，還有什麼，足以為懼。 死神說，別哭泣！ 你們人間看似無常，宇宙運作有法則，只是人們不懂，當然人們也不需太懂。 天災不是禍，是造物主的提醒，是老天的提醒。 人們看似有情，其實是最冷漠，最無情，最自私的。 人，何時能贏過天？勝過天？ 天底下，宇宙間，從來就沒有在論輸贏。 萬物，共生，共存，共好。 這是造物主的呼喚。 可，人，卻老是想要拚勝敗，爭英雄。 宇宙裡的奧秘能量，此消彼長，平衡是秩序。 死亡是自然。 蛻變是自然。 失落是自然。 失去是自然。 釋放是自然。 我在一次又一次愛的呼喚中，清醒。 我在一圈又一圈愛的意識裡，修復。 我在一池又一池愛的池水裡，生息。 我在一個又一個愛的浸潤裡，愛著。 於是，在愛的迴旋中，一邊的愛消弭，另一邊的愛滋長，平衡了。 今日我的「未來日記」，呼應著「死亡」。 今天跟老友們前往秘境探巡。 經歷了看著地圖依然找不到店家的窘境。 看著路邊一畝畝的菜，巧遇主人，一起聊天拔菜。 小吃店裡的辣蘿蔔讓人吃驚，老闆娘說喜歡，送一些給妳們回家吃。 想去行走步道，卻找不到路口，結果，我們早就已在步道上卻不知。 一路與偶遇的人群聊聊天，笑笑鬧鬧。 抬頭看似快要成為下雨天，下山找熱咖啡喝去。 一回頭，憑空出現停車格，迴轉，倒車，入庫，一切順利。 咖啡廳裡的氛圍輕鬆愜意。 一杯咖啡，一個貝果，一客布丁，胃飽心滿足。 又遇店家活動送餅乾，一人一包伴手禮。 我因陌生人的善而開心。 我因朋友的愛而幸福。 我因一切眾緣，善緣而欣喜。 死亡之後，是什麼？ 是改變。 是演進。 是釋放。 是放下。 是重生。 是自由。 是對新的旅程，從心底感到期待的渴望。 而至此，應該明瞭，〝死亡〞與〝希望〞的主體可能是一樣，但卻是一前一後的連續性。 是造物主讓人們的崇高意識生生不息的安排。 Alyson's 4/07 Tarot: Death (9-57) Question: The theme of my future diary on 4/06 Card Drawn: Death Today's tarot card is the theme for the second week of my future diary: Death. Death, for me, often isn't about the physical presence. Death, for me, most of the time, is about whether the heart, the soul, the consciousness are still there. I've asked more than once: Why am I in this world? Why am I still in this world? If you let me live, why take away the people I love? If you let me live, why not let me have the one I love dearly, who loves me back? A friend I met last year said that during our acquaintance, he saw my efforts but felt he didn't see me giving my all. Even in front of friends, I seemed to retain most of my clarity, not even slightly intoxicated by friendship. I smiled in response. The heart had long been shattered, with no remnants left to give. Repeatedly wounded by betrayal. Repeatedly hurt by the departure of family. Scarred, yet with some strength left to cling to life. I'm on an extended break. Those who don't understand envy me. Family and friends are tender and caring. They understand that I'm trying to forgive myself. They know that I'm releasing myself. They accept that I'm allowing myself to be willful. They understand that I'm painstakingly piecing myself together. They empathize with my efforts to heal myself. Having experienced emotions akin to death, many things no longer depress me. In the face of death, what else is there to fear? The Grim Reaper says, "Don't cry! To you humans, things seem capricious, but the universe operates on laws; it's just that people don't understand, and of course, they don't need to understand too much. Natural disasters aren't curses; they're reminders from the Creator, reminders from Heaven. People seem sentimental, but they're actually the most indifferent, the most heartless, the most selfish. When can people win over the heavens? Conquer the heavens? In this world, in the universe, there has never been a debate about winning or losing. All things, coexist, thrive together, for the greater good. This is the call of the Creator. Yet, people always want to fight battles, vie for heroism." The mysterious energy of the universe, ebb and flow, balance is order. Death is natural. Transformation is natural. Loss is natural. Letting go is natural. Release is natural. In the repeated calls of love, I am awake. In the circles of love's consciousness, I am repairing. In the pools of love's water, I am thriving. In the immersion of love, I am loving. Thus, in the whirl of love, as one love diminishes, another flourishes, achieving balance. Today in my "future diary," it echoes "Death." Today, I went with old friends to explore a hidden place. Experienced the embarrassment of still not finding the shop despite looking at the map. Stumbled upon the owner while admiring the vegetables by the roadside, chatting and picking vegetables together. The spicy radish in the snack shop surprised me; the landlady said she liked it and gave us some to take home. Wanted to walk the trail but couldn't find the entrance, turns out we had already been on the trail without realizing it. Chatted and laughed with the people we encountered along the way. Looked like it was about to rain, so we went down the mountain to find hot coffee. Turned around and found a parking space out of nowhere, reversed, parked, everything went smoothly. The atmosphere in the coffee shop was relaxed and cozy. A cup of coffee, a bagel, a serving of pudding, stomach full and heart content. And then encountered a shop promotion giving out cookies, one pack per person. I'm happy because of the kindness of strangers. I'm happy because of the love of friends. I'm joyful because of all the connections, the good karma. What comes after death? It's change. It's evolution. It's release. It's letting go. It's rebirth. It's freedom. It's the eager anticipation from the depths of the heart for a new journey. And by now, it should be clear that "death" and "hope" may share the same essence, but they are sequential, one before the other. It's the arrangement by the Creator to keep people's noble consciousness perpetually alive. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Death

Alyson’s 4/06 Tarot：滋養 孕育 Nurturing (8-57)

Alyson’s 4/06 Tarot：滋養 孕育 Nurturing (8-57) 問題：我4/05的未來日記主題 抽牌：滋養 孕育 Nurturing 今天早晨自然清醒後的第一個思緒是，今天是幾月幾號？現在是幾點？ 第二個思緒是，我今天到底有什麼事情嗎？ 我的生活早已沒了工作日或休假日的差別。 除非有特地安排事情，只有在寫每日塔羅牌時，會因每日抽到的牌卡不同而需要思考不同主旨的書寫，不然每一天都像是複製日，沒有太大差別。 對於今天的「未來日記」，說真的，我沒有任何的頭緒。 在家的時光，通常沒有特別的事情，要如何用”過去式”去寫今日的日記呢。 可不積極找事情，就會開天窗。 我猶豫不已。 午後，朋友群組裡有朋友說想進行塔羅讀牌。 哇！這是昨晚的心想事成嗎？ https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145655725 昨天晚上我有想到，如果塔羅讀牌可以開張，也許有機會啟動我這方面的事業。 雖然我完全不積極，且也沒有計畫何時開始，如何開始，怎麼開始自己的事業。 過去幾個月，就是嘴巴喊喊，每天抽塔羅牌，閱讀塔羅牌，設計心情紀錄卡，寫讀牌和衍伸的想法。 有時候我們面臨膠著的，不知還能怎麼努力才能打破僵局時，就會盼望著有股外力來個衝擊。 最好是往正向扯過去的拉力，這樣就能啟動磁場開始轉動。 機會滾輪就也開始運轉，好機會就會來降臨。 “滋養/孕育”是很深奧又美好的涵義。 今日”善的種子”種植下去，有些會經過刻意的培育或給予滋養，有些就是自然地不刻意耕耘，我們無法預料哪日會以什麼形式，在哪裡收成。 我總警惕自己別犯錯，別對不住人，別欺負人。 過去在我腦袋空乏的時候，曾被多人鄙棄，瞧不起，認為我是寄生蟲，只會依賴著他們。 其實，我並沒有想太多。 那時的我認為因那些事情我不擅長，也不懂，不要給予過多意見和想法。 有人願意主導，有人負責協助，無法幫忙的人就是跟隨。 我從來未曾預料到一開始說好願意讓我跟隨的話語，只是說說而已。 我的”無意見跟隨”，造成別人的累贅，可那時的我是不知悉的。 我後來知道原來那是客氣的語言，這就又是我不懂的另一個層面。 朋友間，喜不喜歡，要不要，肯不肯，直說無妨，何須繞這麼多彎。 加上那幾年的我沒有心思和心力注意。 讓人不喜歡了，自己都不知道。 唉！何苦如此。 從那以後，這塊友誼田地，我就沒再積極培育和經營。 因為我深深得明白，一片土壤裡滿是玻璃、石頭、碎石和垃圾，是無法培養出好事情。 需要磨合的不是只有愛情，友情不也是需要。 人的心力就只有哪樣多。 人的一生有多綿長？ 這種時候就是要聰明一些，將心力和愛澆灌在會有回饋你的土地上。 就如同農夫，在種植前，會先評估過那片土地是否肥沃，是否合適。 弱水三千，只取一瓢。 要讓你的愛，獨特一點。 偏愛，很可愛。 交付錯了心，那就趕緊停損，止損。 別被不甘心、不甘願給迷惘傷痕累累的靈魂。 寧願自己抱頭痛哭，也不要自我作賤，貶低自己如塵埃。 我們的滋養。 我們的孕育。 我們的心意。 我的的愛情。 只灌溉在兩相奔赴的關係裡。 沒有什麼是無悔。 沒有什麼是無怨。 寫到這裡，可以確定的是與「未來日記」完全離題。 可，與今日塔羅「滋養/孕育」有著直接關係。 回歸正題。 我今日，若有發生美好的事情，那是過去花費心思滋養孕育的因。 我這一世，這種時候可以多些任性，也許是我累積好多世修習，孕育後得來的果。 當我們羨慕時，可想想，自己曾付出過什麼。 當我們埋怨時，也想想，自己可曾付出過什麼。 當我們被羨慕時，再想想，自己曾付出過什麼。 當我們被嫌棄時，需想想，自己可曾付出過什麼。 種植、滋養、孕育，日後方有果。 天生福報多的，有自然給予。 天生福報較少的，那就自己種植，自己耕耘、培育、滋養。 而我今天的「滋養孕育」牌與這週的「改變」主題牌是如何串聯在一起的。 我想，很大的可能性是，我從〝改變〞為基本調去思考”滋養與孕育”。 我太過重情，對於失落、失去，心裡總會有想要強留的勉強，常把自己搞得心糟糟，淚淌不停。 這幾個禮拜我一直持續不斷學習〝道別〞，學習接受道別後的空虛，學習接受道別後，就真的是翻篇與想念。 我也從心裡調整。 道別，讓對方放心啟程離去。 道別，讓自己的心安住安定。 Alyson's 4/06 Tarot: Nurturing Question: My theme for the future diary on 4/05 Card drawn: Nurturing The first thought upon waking naturally this morning was, "What day is it today? What time is it?" The second thought was, "Do I have anything to do today?" My life no longer distinguishes between weekdays and weekends. Unless there are specific arrangements, each day feels like a replica, with little difference. As for today's "future diary," to be honest, I have no clue. Time spent at home usually involves nothing special. How do I write today's diary entry in the past tense without actively seeking activities? Without proactive engagement, one tends to drift. I hesitate. In the afternoon, a friend in a group chat expressed a desire to do tarot readings. Wow! Did my wish from last night come true? Last night, I pondered that if tarot readings could kick off, perhaps there's a chance to kickstart my career in this area. Although I'm not proactive at all and have no plans for when, how, or where to start my own business. For the past few months, it's just been lip service, drawing tarot cards every day, reading tarot cards, designing mood cards, and writing about readings and related ideas. Sometimes when we're stuck and don't know how to break the deadlock, we hope for an external force to make an impact. It's best to pull towards positive forces from the past, so the magnetic field can start to spin. The wheel of opportunity starts turning, and good opportunities come knocking. "Nurturing" is a profound and beautiful concept. Today, planting the seeds of kindness, some will undergo deliberate nurturing or nourishment, while others will naturally flourish without deliberate cultivation. We can't predict when or in what form we will reap the harvest. I always caution myself not to make mistakes, not to wrong others, not to bully others. In times of mental emptiness in the past, I was often ridiculed by many, looked down upon, considered a parasite who only relied on them. In reality, I didn't think much about it. Back then, I thought that because I wasn't good at or didn't understand those things, I shouldn't offer too many opinions or thoughts. Some are willing to lead, some are responsible for assisting, and those who can't help just follow. I never anticipated that the words agreeing to let me follow in the beginning were just talk. My "unopinionated compliance" became a burden to others, but I was unaware at the time. Later, I realized that it was polite language, another aspect I didn't understand. Among friends, whether you like it or not, whether you want to or not, it's okay to speak directly without beating around the bush. And during those years, I didn't have the mental energy or focus to notice. If someone didn't like me, I didn't even know it. Oh, why bother? Since then, I haven't actively nurtured or cultivated this friendship territory. Because I deeply understand that a soil full of glass, stones, gravel, and garbage cannot cultivate anything good. It's not just love that needs adjustment; friendship does too. Human energy is limited. How long is a person's life? At times like these, one must be wise and pour their energy and love into the land that will give back. Just like a farmer, before planting, they evaluate whether the land is fertile and suitable. Of the myriad waters, only a drop is taken. Let your love be unique. Partiality is lovely. If you invest in the wrong heart, quickly cut losses. Don't let a confused soul burden you with reluctance and uncertainty. Better to cry with your head held high than to degrade yourself like dust. Our nurturing. Our cultivation. Our intentions. My love. They're only nourished in mutually committed relationships. There's nothing to regret. There's nothing to resent. Writing to this point, it's clear that it's completely off-topic from the "future diary." But it's directly related to today's tarot card, "Nurturing." Back to the point. If something wonderful happens to me today, it's because of the nurturing and cultivation efforts I've made in the past. In this life, I can afford to be a little more willful at times, perhaps because of the accumulated merits from many lifetimes of cultivation. When we envy, think about what we have sacrificed. When we complain, also think about what we have sacrificed. When we are envied, think again about what we have sacrificed. When we are despised, we need to think about what we have sacrificed. Planting, nurturing, and cultivating lead to fruit in the future. For those naturally blessed, they receive without effort. For those with fewer blessings, they need to plant, cultivate, and nurture themselves. And how does today's "Nurturing" card relate to this week's theme of "Change"? I think there's a high possibility that I've shifted my focus from "Change" to "Nurturing." I'm too emotionally attached, always wanting to cling on to what's lost. This often leaves me feeling miserable, with tears flowing endlessly. For the past few weeks, I've been continuously learning to "say goodbye," to accept the emptiness that comes after farewells, and to truly move on and stop longing. I've also adjusted from the heart. Goodbye, allowing the other person to depart with peace of mind. Goodbye, letting my own heart settle and find peace. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Nurturing

Alyson’s 4/05 Tarot：恐懼 Fear (7-57)

Alyson’s 4/05 Tarot：恐懼 Fear (7-57) 問題：我4/04的未來日記主題 抽牌：恐懼 Fear https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145565419 凌晨聊天過了頭，又搞亂了生理時鐘。 下次真的要有勇氣開口跟對方說，請停止，不要再說下去。 其實，我有說出口，對方像是沒聽到似的，只顧著自己一直說。 我明白，這樣的情況是不好的。 就是因不忍心在知道對方的心情正在撞牆情況，讓對方一人奮鬥著。 心想著，伸手拉人一把，就是在這樣寧靜的夜晚會是關鍵時刻。 畢竟，不能賭注得認為”不需想這麼多，這應該不會成為那個萬一的時刻”。 但若假設，我沒適時伸出手拉住，真成為了那”萬一”呢？ 我的心，會永遠過不了這坎的。 只是，陪了朋友，賠了自己。 這樣的事情，真不能太常發生。 於是今日，就從清晨兩點多才能睡覺的煩雜心情中開啟。 在害怕中，希望發出了芽 在擔憂中，自信閃著亮光 今日的未來日記從午後起了頭。 是要與朋友碰面聚會呀。 在一家一直很想前往的咖啡廳。 在老家附近。 車子啟動的瞬間，耳朵像是突然聽到非常尖銳的聲音，刺痛著，且連續兩次。 上次這樣的痛，心中的念頭一閃而過，我因犯懶，沒認真看待。 造成這輩子的後悔不已。 那是爸爸緊急急診的前一天晚上。 長程通勤多年的我，那晚，好累。 心中想著明日就要跟爸爸一起吃飯，於是發懶得沒回家探望。 再也沒有機會跟爸爸一起待在老家了。 今天又痛，不敢再輕忽。 我需要改變討厭麻煩的個性。 且，我知道是爸爸在我耳邊交待事情，提醒我要注意。 原本是計畫著將車子停放在老家，等聚會結束再進入屋內查巡，看看。 因耳朵痛，就打開大門，馬上就聽到奇怪的聲音。 真的是非常慶幸在聚會前趕緊先查看。 老家魚缸因地震龜裂，魚缸的水流了滿地。 裡面的魚，倒在淺淺的水哩，正在掙扎著呼吸。 趕緊打電話給家人，問，這要怎麼處理。 地震是能量的傳出，這是自然之道，避免不了。 老天把危險降到了最小，且也安排了一切。 因昨天我有先回老家一趟看看地震後有沒有造成損壞，所以有注意到空置的魚缸，今天就剛好可以運用上。 且過去有注意到家人都一直有準備去掉氯氣的水，在魚缸換水時可以使用。 今日，魚，得以繼續悠游，沒事。 我很開心。 沒有因討厭麻煩而忽視了魚的生命。 沒有忽略耳朵痛和心中的聲音，而忽視了隱藏的危機，因馬達一直空轉，若產生火花，後果很難預料會是怎麼樣。 我 ~ 在保守中學會謹慎 在謹慎中思考細心 在細心中實踐體貼 在體貼中發散著愛 學習了塔羅之後，老師提醒著我，在感官中，我的聽覺是最敏感，也是對於宇宙，對與天地萬物的連結，啟蒙最早的。 所以，我能”聽見”。 因聽不懂，故我得懂得”覺察”與”分析、判斷”。 將家裡的事情大約整理，不會有危險後，前往跟朋友約定的地點。 咖啡，濃郁，好喝。 甜點，甜而不膩，好吃。 洗手間，乾淨清爽，好舒服。 因事情都已妥善處理好，放鬆的心，也就更能享受當下與朋友相聚的快樂。 感恩造物主給予的天賦。 感恩靈魂的敏銳與提醒。 「隨風潛入夜，潤物細無聲。」 感恩造物主，爸爸一直與我們同在。 爸爸保護著我們，就像過去那樣。 爸爸，沒有離開。 是啊！每每想到這樣，淚，就流下。 Alyson’s 4/05 Tarot: Fear (7-57) Question: The theme of my journal on 4/04 Card drawn: Fear Staying up too late chatting, once again disrupting my circadian rhythm. Next time, I really need to gather the courage to speak up and say, "Stop, let's not continue this conversation." In truth, I did speak up, but it seemed like the other person didn't hear me and just kept talking. I understand that this situation isn't good. It's because I can't bear to see the other person struggling with their emotions, hitting a wall all by themselves. I think to myself, extending a helping hand might be crucial, especially on such quiet nights. After all, I can't gamble on thinking "I don't need to worry about it, it probably won't become that 'what if' moment." But what if, hypothetically, I don't reach out in time and it does become that "what if"? My heart wouldn't be able to overcome that hurdle. Just accompanying a friend, I've sacrificed myself. Such occurrences really shouldn't happen too often. So today begins with a cluttered mind from finally being able to sleep after 2 in the morning. In fear, hope sprouts. In worry, confidence shines bright. Today's journal about the future starts in the afternoon. It's about meeting up with friends. At a café I've been wanting to visit for a long time. Near my hometown. As the car starts, my ears suddenly perceive a sharp, piercing sound, twice in a row. The last time I felt this pain, a fleeting thought crossed my mind, but I didn't take it seriously. It led to regrets that haunt me till now. It was the night before my dad's emergency hospital visit. After years of commuting, that night, I was exhausted. I thought I'd see him the next day for dinner, so laziness kept me from visiting home. I never got the chance to be with my dad in our hometown again. Today, the pain returns, and I dare not ignore it. I need to change my dislike for trouble. And I know it's my dad reminding me to be cautious. Originally, I planned to park the car at home and inspect it later after the gathering. But due to the ear pain, I arrived home early. Opening the door, I heard a strange sound. I'm truly fortunate that I checked before the gathering. The fish tank at home cracked due to an earthquake, flooding the floor. The fish were lying in shallow water, struggling to breathe. I quickly called family to ask how to handle it. An earthquake is an energy transmission, a part of nature; it can't be avoided. The universe minimized the danger and arranged everything. Because I had visited home after the earthquake yesterday to check for damage, I noticed the empty fish tank, which I could utilize today. And because I had noticed that my family always prepared water with chlorine to replace the fish tank water, I could use it when changing the water today. Today, the fish are able to swim peacefully, unharmed. I'm happy. I didn't neglect the lives of the fish due to my aversion to trouble. I didn't overlook the ear pain and the voice in my heart, thus avoiding a hidden crisis; the motor kept running empty, and if sparks had occurred, the consequences would have been unimaginable. I ~ Learned caution through conservation. Contemplated carefully through caution. Practiced thoughtfulness through carefulness. Radiated love through thoughtfulness. After learning tarot, my teacher reminded me that among my senses, my hearing is the most sensitive and the earliest connection to the universe and all things. So, I could "hear." And if I can't understand, then I must learn to "perceive" and "analyze, judge." After roughly sorting out things at home, ensuring there was no danger, I headed to the meeting place with my friends. The coffee was rich and delicious. The desserts were sweet but not overwhelming, simply delicious. The restroom was clean and refreshing, very comfortable. With everything taken care of, my relaxed mind could fully enjoy the happiness of being with friends in the present moment. Grateful for the talents bestowed by the Creator. Grateful for the sensitivity and reminders of the soul. "Drifting into the night with the wind, nourishing everything silently." Grateful to the Creator, my dad has always been with us. Dad is still protecting us, just like before. Dad hasn't left. Yes!

Alyson’s 4/03 Tarot：豐收 Harvest (5-57)

Alyson’s 4/03 Tarot：豐收 Harvest (5-57) 問題：我4/02的未來日記主題 抽牌：豐收 Harvest https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145387285 發現從休息開始至今二年多的時光裡，一直在調整，想找到或建立適合現在的自己。 以前，不怕，因有爸爸。 現在，怕，也得自己處理。 以前，低潮，不怕，有爸爸在。 現在，失落，怕，該怎麼辦？ 去年，我把自己封閉在家。 今年，我把自己推了出門。 去哪？ 去市場。 去操場。 去有人的地方。 這是我自己非常清楚知道的改變。 我的『未來日記』第一階段要先「改變」。 改變與豐收，一個是因，一個是果，然後又互成為對方的因和果。 古代的九個太陽，是種詛咒 現代的九個木星，是種祝福 這張「豐收」的塔羅牌，是讓人想到心情飛揚，若是穿著裙子，就會想轉圈圈的裙擺擺揚，然後，定住，撒花慶祝。 冰箱裡沒有新鮮青菜。 打算今天出門跑一趟。 這市場是去年才開始去的，不熟悉。去過幾次後，也開始慢慢找到自己喜歡的攤子。 固定買青菜的有四攤。 每次都會買一卷潤餅當午餐。 之前軟排骨用得很好吃的那攤已不再。 一開始以為較便宜的水果攤，其實是賣很貴的。 每一次的前往，都是一次次的學習與累積。 每一次的採買，都是豐收，都是改變。 在市場裡，能更感受到季節的交替，天氣的變化。 想吃的，想買的，也有可能會失望，找不到，然後學習調整。 有時，老天會教你如何”改變”。 當辛勞努力之後，宇宙允諾的豐盈 最艱苦的工作已完成，只待收割 對於沒有具體勞動的我，哪來的豐收？ 我自己現在是這樣看得，我的豐收，不一定是物品，不一定是具體，不一定是有形。 我的豐收，在於接觸的人，沾染到他們的歡樂，是喜豐收。 我的豐收，在於流淌的事，沾染到這些的人氣，是喜豐收。 我的豐收，在於穿過的想，沾染到腦袋的思考，是喜豐收。 腳程是很緩慢，但越來越有感。 思考是很雜亂，但越理越明白。 欣賞、讚賞自己辛苦後的成果 為這纍纍結果評個高分 當我不一樣，我就是得更加勇敢。 當我不一樣，我就是得更努力闖盪。 當我不一樣，我就是得失敗後馬上思量。 當我不一樣，我就是得事事掛心上，樣樣學精光。 該看的書一大落，沒能有太多時間在感傷。 我已是枚歐巴桑，落淚也不可能有人為我心傷。 好想學習那位女孩好情商。 好想擁有那位學者好智商。 認知到自己不足的困窘，隨著年紀，隨著閱讀，隨著理解別人的一些模樣，更顯得蒼白無力。 心中有點懊惱，怎以往沒能多學習一些。 還好，現在知道了，也有時間，一點一點再累積。 一位媽媽在她兒子開口撒嬌說，晚餐想吃什麼時，馬上豪氣答應。這位媽媽說她有這樣的經濟能力，且兒子撒嬌想要跟她吃飯，有什麼比這更重要，更幸福的事情。 一位大姐在我們一起買水果的攤子前面跟我分享在那個市場哩，她的採買經驗，哪攤的好吃，哪攤的品質好。這是美好的交流。 今天，內心有許多感想，一項項皆像是收成的果實。 在市場看到的，遇到的笑臉，也是收穫。 這些，不是豐收，是什麼。 Alyson's 4/03 Tarot: Harvest (5-57) Question: Theme of my diary entry on 4/02 Card drawn: Harvest I've found that during the two-plus years since I began resting, I've been adjusting, trying to find or build a version of myself that fits the present. In the past, I wasn't afraid because I had my father. Now, I'm afraid, and I have to deal with it myself. In the past, when I hit a low, I wasn't afraid because my father was there. Now, I feel lost, afraid. What should I do? Last year, I kept myself closed at home. This year, I pushed myself out the door. To where? To the market. To the playground. To places where there are people. This is a change I'm very clear about. The first stage of my "Future Diary" is to "change." Change and harvest, one is the cause, the other is the result, and then they become each other's cause and effect. The nine suns of ancient times were a curse. The nine Jupiters of modern times are a blessing. This "Harvest" tarot card makes one think of exuberant feelings, like twirling in a skirt, and then stopping, throwing flowers to celebrate. There are no fresh vegetables in the fridge. I plan to go out for a run today. I started going to this market just last year, so I'm not familiar with it. After going a few times, I've slowly started to find the stalls I like. There are four stalls where I usually buy vegetables. I always buy a roll of pancakes for lunch. The stall where I used to buy delicious soft ribs is no longer there. I initially thought the fruit stall was cheaper, but it's actually quite expensive. Every trip is a learning experience and accumulation. Every purchase is a harvest, a change. In the market, I can feel the changing seasons, the weather. Things I want to eat, want to buy, may be disappointing, unable to find, and then I learn to adjust. Sometimes, heaven teaches you how to "change." After hard work, the universe promises abundance. The most difficult work has been completed, only waiting to harvest. For me, who hasn't done any physical labor, where does the harvest come from? This is how I see it now: my harvest may not be tangible items. My harvest lies in the people I meet, the joy I share with them, is a harvest of joy. My harvest lies in the things I encounter, the enthusiasm I pass on to others, is a harvest of happiness. My harvest lies in the thoughts I have, the insights I gain, is a harvest of wisdom. The journey is slow, but I feel more and more. The thinking is chaotic, but the clearer it becomes. Appreciating and acknowledging the results of my hard work, Giving high marks to these abundant results. When I'm different, I have to be braver. When I'm different, I have to work harder. When I'm different, I have to reflect immediately after failure. When I'm different, I have to care about everything, learn everything thoroughly. A lot of books to read, not enough time to be sentimental. I'm already a middle-aged woman, there's no one to hurt for me when I cry. I really want to learn from that girl's emotional intelligence. I really want to have the intellect of that scholar. Realizing my own shortcomings, as I grow older, as I read, as I understand others' experiences, it becomes more apparent. There's a bit of regret in my heart, why didn't I learn more in the past. Fortunately, I know now, and there is time, slowly accumulating bit by bit. A mother, when her son sweetly asks what he wants for dinner, immediately agrees. She says she has the emotional ability to do this, and her son's desire to have dinner with her is more important and happier than anything else. An older sister shares her shopping experience with me in front of the fruit stall we're buying from together, telling me which stalls have delicious food and good quality. It's a beautiful exchange. Today, there are many thoughts in my heart, each one seems like the fruit of the harvest. The smiling faces I see in the market are also a harvest. If these aren't harvests, then what are they? #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Harvest

2024 0403 今日塔羅：成就者 Achiever

2024 0403 今日塔羅：成就者 Achiever 耶！過了今日，就又要開始好幾天連續休假。 春遊，正是現在很適合的事情。 天氣很舒服，心情也跟著鬆鬆然的飄著。 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145382254 今日來個最後衝刺，達標！ 若沒有，怪自己太混，太磨譏，太散漫了。 放假前，把今日效率拉高，衝一波。 日子的盼望，在於平時的打拼。 有人說，不能把希望訂得太過薄弱，顯得志氣小，沒勁。 有人就是適合跳很高，飛很遠。 有人就是習慣靜靜地，慢慢地。 無論怎樣，都好。 大家的期盼，不同，只要欣喜，無論哪樣，都好。 長久以來 土星的紀律 木星的擴展 眾人的辛勞 團隊的合作 大家的共識 投入了資源、金錢、精神、心力和時間 勝利成就在不遠前方，等著成功歡呼聲！ 有時，沒到一定程度，實在看不出努力的方向對不對。 有時，像個天真孩子，只懂悶頭努力，反而更能等待到一片光亮。 成就，有很多樣貌。 財富是一種，人脈是一種。 職位是一種，名氣是一種。 我偏偏喜歡的不是上面列出的任何一種。 我喜歡的成就是，沒給父母丟臉，沒讓晚輩覺丟人。 當朋友想起我的時候是笑顏。 當敵人想到我的時候會汗顏。 我堅持的原則很傻。 傻得讓人覺可笑。 至今，我仍不後悔。 從事人力資源的工作，做到客觀、公正、沒有私心，很難，我很努力將自己的好名聲維持在一定的高度。 我追求的最高成就 ~ 無愧。 有了無愧，不怕偶遇。 達到無愧，不怕打雷。 做到無愧，不怕蓋棺論定。 既無愧，也就能坦然立於天地。 2024/04/03 Tarot Reading: Achiever Hey! After today, it's time for several consecutive days off. Spring outings are just right now. The weather is pleasant, and the mood is relaxed. Today, let's make a final push and reach the goal! If not, blame yourself for being too lazy, too procrastinating, too scattered. Before the holiday, let's increase efficiency for today and make a final push. The hope of days lies in the usual hard work. Some say, don't set hopes too weak, it shows a lack of ambition. Some are suited to jump high, fly far. Some are accustomed to quiet, slow progress. Whichever way, it's all good. Everyone's expectations are different, as long as they are joyful, it's all good. For a long time, The discipline of Saturn, The expansion of Jupiter, The hard work of everyone, The cooperation of the team, The consensus of everyone, Investment of resources, money, spirit, effort, and time. Victory and achievement are just ahead, waiting for the cheers of success! Sometimes, until a certain point, it's hard to see if the effort is right. Sometimes, like an innocent child, only head-down effort can wait for a bright future. Achievement comes in many forms. Wealth is one, connections are another. Position is one, fame is one. But what I like is none of the above. The achievement I like is not embarrassing my parents, not making the younger generation feel ashamed. When friends think of me, they smile. When enemies think of me, they sweat. The principle I adhere to is very silly. Silly enough to be laughable. Yet, to this day, I have no regrets. Working in human resources, achieving objectivity, fairness, and selflessness is difficult. I work hard to maintain my good reputation at a certain level. My ultimate pursuit - to be without regret. With no regret, I fear no encounters. Having reached a state of no regret, I fear no thunder. Being without regret, I fear no posthumous judgment. Being without regret, I can stand confidently in the world. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Achiever

Alyson’s 3/31 Tarot：皇后 Empress

Alyson’s 3/31 Tarot：皇后 Empress 讓我熱淚盈眶，讓我溫暖力量滿胸膛 讓我謙卑跪下，讓我平靜祥和又安康 焚香，仰頭，靜心，凝視 向您呼喚，不敢高喊 您沉默，您不理 您低眉看似俯瞰紅塵，也許看人們的前世今生 只要您在哪，那兒就是我的家，我歸屬的地方 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/145031173 生日快樂！觀世音菩薩 觀世音菩薩的聖誕日，我前往林口竹林山觀音寺幫觀音菩薩慶生，祝賀她的生日。 乾媽 ~ 我是神明的孩子 小時候非常羨慕哥哥和弟弟都有乾媽，我卻沒有。 曾問過媽媽，為何我沒有。 爸媽說，因為我小時候非常愛哭，又愛跟弟弟吵架，沒有大人喜歡我，沒有人想當我的乾爸或乾媽。 我在夜裡哭泣。 我覺得我很棒的呀！ 我太小了，不管是哭泣，或是因太愛哭被媽媽抱在懷裡睡覺的記憶。 羨慕現在的孩子，父母將他們成長，紀錄在相機裡，電腦裡，還有影片裡。 最後，觀世音菩薩成為了我的乾媽。 在我們的文化裡，許多與神明有緣分的孩子，會認神明做乾爸或乾媽。 我們是神明的孩子。 慶生 那天，我比原先預期的晚半個小時起床。 以前長輩和朋友們的睡眠是隨著年齡增長而遞減，我連這點都與眾不同，現在年紀多了，睡眠時間更長了。 沒有睡飽，無法清醒，頭會痛。 所以即使神識有點舒醒，但眼睛張不開，腦子無法運轉時，我就會繼續貪睡一下。 準備了水果，擺放在好看的竹籃裡，到時候就提著進廟裡，直接放在供桌就可以。 記得家裡在這樣的日子，媽媽會事先去買紅龜粿或壽桃這類中式糕點給神明慶生。 我想著自己愛吃的是蛋糕，於是就準備蛋糕。 直覺力 晚起，當天所有的時間都需往後延。 賴床時，腦海中曾閃過一個思緒，非常短暫，快得沒能抓住那訊息。 直到進入蛋糕店，聽著店家跟排在我前面的那位客人說，小型蛋糕已售完的話語，這時，早上沒能抓到的訊息，馬上連結到腦海，並清晰有了畫面與現在眼前發生的場景一樣。 我的直覺力慢慢得回來了，經過我散漫了六、七百天後，感動。 是觀世音菩薩和眾神明的庇佑。 祈禱與祝賀 取了六根香，在廟的右邊側門裡面有點香檯。 高舉點燃的香，然後從右邊側門走出。 走至天空爐前，頂禮，祈禱念詞，三拜。 將三根香插入廟大門正前方的香爐裡。 後退，頂禮，三拜。 從廟的左邊側門進入廟宇裡。 站在中心排，面向前方的神明佛像。 頂禮，祈禱念詞，三拜。 將手上還有的三根香插入前方香爐裡。 後退，雙掌合起，三拜。 從十幾年前，我前來廟宇，除了特別的三次以外，皆無任何的祈求。 第一次是請求指引工作選擇。 第二次是爸爸住院病危通知。 第三次是拜託照護奶奶爸媽。 今日目的是慶生，當然就是祝福生日快樂，然後國家安康。 小幸運，也是小福報 停車位 當我車子快接近廟宇附近的停車場時，前方塞車了。 將車子右轉，打算繞一圈，到後面馬路的停車格。 轉了一圈後，注意到原塞車的路口已無車，那就試試看，也許有比較近的停車位。 過了紅綠燈，馬上，右前方就有個停車格，還是最後一個。 就這樣輕易且順利將車停好。 供品位 進入廟宇，非常多人，供桌上滿滿的供品。 尋思要找空位擺放水果和蛋糕，走到白虎邊的第二排桌子，剛好看到有香客在收他們的供品。 超級幸運的呀！ 請他們慢慢來，我可以等一下時間的，沒關係的。 在這樣神聖的日子，許多人都面帶微笑與欣喜心前來。 我的竹籃和蛋糕盒，都是方型且盒子狀，可以疊起來擺放。 在這樣隆重日子，神明不會跟信徒、香客計較東西擺放是否有端正。 結緣品 第一次注意廟裡的活動情況，以前總是只有拜拜，沒有留意其他。 廟宇中間，出家師父們帶領信眾唱誦佛經。 正想往那裏靠近，突然聽到物品撒落的聲音，我趕緊前往協助撿拾。 以為是某信眾的供品，撿起來後才知道是中間師父們丟出來要送給有緣粉的信眾們的糖果。 我很幸運，撿到了兩顆。 在我不懂的情況下，不同的糖果繼續發送。 站在第一線的一位姐姐，突然轉身，將她手指攤開說，歡迎結緣，分享她掌中的糖果。 我拿了她的糖果，並用我撿到的另一種，送給這位姐姐，祝福她。 糖果繼續分送著。 我覺我有拿到兩種，已是非常幸運的事情，不須每一種都要拿到，更不須要拿到很多。 有好多人受到觀世音菩薩的協助，發送著還願品，跟大眾結善緣。 還有大悲咒水，經過觀世音菩薩的加持，回家加入飲用水，從身體內部，每一細胞都有著佛經的保護。 祈禱位 觀音菩薩聖誕日，廟宇的委員會請了師父前來唱誦佛經。 關於佛經，對我們來說很有距離，裡頭全是看不懂的梵文意思。 就如同基督教有讀聖經班，佛經也有讀經班，讓想要了解的人有機會可以研讀。 外圍發放著糖果餅乾，中間的唱誦佛經持續著，我站在一旁跟著頂禮，膜拜。 隨著師父唱誦的聲調，我的身體很輕鬆得輕微舞動。 那是讓我很沉浸的音律。 看到一位長輩也想頂禮膜拜，我側了身，讓她可以更為靠近一些。 我想，這也是一種志同道合吧。 在這樣近的距離，我與觀世音菩薩金身在同一個小空間裡，隨著唱誦聲音的流淌，我的心思只有佛經，只有當下。我的心中，溫柔燦燦。 回家 ~ 溫暖的溫柔 儀式告一段落。 觀世音菩薩的金身需要回到大殿之中。 這是第一次看到竹林山觀音寺觀世音菩薩的金身。 小小的，黑黑的，應是被長年鼎盛香火燻的。 原本想拿起手機拍攝或錄影。 在發現菩薩金身應該會經過身邊時，我一心只想好好看看菩薩，只想感受當下。 菩薩金身被人抱著朝我邊前進，我用右手跟觀音菩薩金身打招呼，輕聲對她說，『觀音菩薩，生日快樂。』 在菩薩金身從我眼前經過時，我瞬間熱淚盈眶，站在原地久久無法移身。 像是被光溫暖包裹著，擁抱著。 我像是被乾媽抱在懷中，她溫柔的撫慰我。 我在心中對觀世音菩薩說，我回來了。乾媽。 咖啡味 竹林寺大門旁的停車場邊邊開了一家小小咖啡廳。 一位年輕男孩的創業，裡面位置不多，也沒有洗手間。 我喜歡這地方的可愛，和老闆的親切。 詢問了併桌，獲得對方親和的回應。 老闆還記得我，我們聊了農曆春節他與廟宇如此近的距離，他的所見，所聞，所感，所想。 有時我們都需要像是朋友，可互相聊聊的人。 不熟悉但認識，這樣的淡淡，很好。 後記 離開了廟宇，將蛋糕分享給哥哥嫂嫂，分享給社區守衛和打掃大姊。 吃觀世音菩薩加持過的蛋糕，大家都平安，都沾染到溫暖的光。 回到自己的家中，想將慶生寫下紀錄，也想知道當觀世音菩薩經過我身旁時，她跟我說了什麼，讓我的高靈感動到情緒無法控制，即使過了一些時間，跟哥哥分享時，依然是想流淚，依然馬上紅眼眶。 塔羅抽到了『皇后Empress』。 我又哭了。 是媽媽。 張開雙手，等著我撲上前，抱著我。 是媽媽。 滋養孕育，等著我撲上前，餵飽我。 是媽媽。 溫暖守候，等著我撲上前，撫慰我。 是媽媽。 安慰支持，等著我撲上前，誇獎我。 是媽媽。 林口竹林山觀音寺： https://www.zlskyt.com.tw/ 紅龜粿： https://zh.wikipedia.org/zh-tw/%E7%B4%85%E9%BE%9C%E7%B2%BF 壽桃： https://www.klintainan.com/Goods/92 Alyson’s 3/31 Tarot: Empress Let my eyes brim with tears, let warm strength fill my chest, Let me kneel in humility, let me be serene, peaceful, and healthy, Burning incense, looking up, quieting my mind, gazing, Calling out to you, not daring to shout, You remain silent, you don't respond, With lowered brows, seemingly overlooking the mortal world, perhaps seeing people's past lives and present, As long as you are there, that's my home, the place I belong. Happy Birthday! Guanyin Bodhisattva On the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva, I went to the Guanyin Temple in Linkou Zhulin Mountain to celebrate her birthday and offer my congratulations. Godmother ~ I Am a Child of the Deities When I was young, I envied my brothers for having godmothers while I didn't. I once asked my mother why. My parents said it was because I used to cry a lot and argue with my younger brother, and no adults liked me or wanted to be my godparents. I cried myself to sleep at night. I thought I was great! I was too young to remember whether it was crying or being cuddled to sleep by my mother because I cried too much. I envied today's children, whose parents record their growth in cameras, computers, and videos. Finally, Guanyin Bodhisattva became my godmother. In our culture, many children who are destined to have connections with deities recognize them as godparents. We are children of the deities. Celebration That day, I woke up half an hour later than I originally planned. In the past, the sleep of elders and friends decreased with age, but I was different. As I grew older, I slept longer. Without enough sleep, I couldn't stay awake, and my head would ache. So even if my consciousness was somewhat awake, if I couldn't open my eyes or my brain couldn't function, I would continue to indulge in sleep. I prepared fruits and arranged them in a beautiful bamboo basket to take them into the temple and place them directly on the altar when the time came. I remember that on such days, my mother would buy traditional Chinese pastries like red turtle cakes or longevity peaches to celebrate the deities' birthdays. Since I loved cakes, I decided to prepare a cake. Intuition Waking up late meant that everything for the day would be delayed. While lying in bed, a fleeting thought crossed my mind, so brief that I couldn't grasp the message. It wasn't until I entered the cake shop and heard the shopkeeper telling the customer in front of me that the small cakes were sold out that the morning's missed message instantly connected in my mind, vividly matching the scene happening before me. My intuition was slowly returning, which moved me after my absent-mindedness for six or seven hundred days. It was the blessing of Guanyin Bodhisattva and the other deities. Prayer and Blessing I took six incense sticks. Inside the temple's right side door was an incense table. I raised the lit incense and walked out from the right side door. I walked to the sky furnace, paid respects, recited prayers, and bowed three times. Then, I inserted three incense sticks into the incense burner directly in front of the temple door. I stepped back, paid respects, and bowed three times. I entered the temple from the left side door. Standing in the center row facing the deity's statue in front, I paid respects, recited prayers, and bowed three times. Then, I inserted the remaining three incense sticks into the incense burner in front. I stepped back, clasped my hands together, and bowed three times. Since ten years ago, when I came to the temple, except for three special occasions, I had no requests during my visits. The first time was to seek guidance on job choices. The second time was when my father was hospitalized and critically ill. The third time was to ask for care for my grandparents. Today's purpose was to celebrate, of course, to wish for a happy birthday and the well-being of the country. Small Fortunes, Small Blessings Parking Space As my car approached the temple's parking lot, there was traffic ahead. I turned right, planning to go around and park in the parking spaces on the street behind. After making a circle, I noticed that the intersection where there was traffic before was now clear. So, I decided to try my luck and see if there was a closer parking space. After passing the traffic light, there was immediately a parking space on the right side, and it was the last one. So, I easily and smoothly parked my car. Offerings Entering the temple, there were many people, and the offering tables were full. I wondered where to find space to place the fruits and cake. I walked to the second row of tables on the side of the White Tiger and happened to see worshippers collecting their offerings. Super lucky! I asked them to take their time as I could wait. On such a sacred day, many people came with smiles and joy. My bamboo basket and cake box were both square and box-shaped, so they could be stacked and placed. On such an important day, the deities wouldn't mind how neatly offerings were placed by the worshippers and visitors. Bonds It was the first time I paid attention to the activities in the temple. Before, I only prayed without paying attention to anything else. In the middle of the temple, the ordained masters led the worshippers in chanting sutras. Just as I was about to approach them, I suddenly heard the sound of items being scattered. I hurried over to help pick them up, thinking they were offerings from worshippers. Only after picking them up did I realize they were candies thrown by the masters in the middle to be given to worshippers who were destined to receive them. I was very lucky to pick up two. Without understanding why, different candies continued to be distributed. A sister standing in the front suddenly turned around, opened her hand, and welcomed me to share the candies in her palm. I took her candy and gave her the other one I picked up, wishing her well. The candies continued to be distributed. I felt lucky to have picked up two kinds, which was already a very fortunate thing. There was no need to have every kind or to have many. Many people received help from Guanyin Bodhisattva, offering their gratitude and forming good karma with others. There was also the water blessed with the Great Compassion Mantra, which, when consumed at home, protected every cell of the body with the sutras. Prayer Space On the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the temple committee invited masters to chant sutras. The sutras were distant to us, filled with Sanskrit meanings we couldn't understand. Just as Christianity has Bible study classes, there are also sutra study classes for those who wish to understand. Candies and cookies were distributed on the periphery, while the chanting of sutras continued in the middle. I stood aside, paying respects and worshiping along. With the tones of the master's chanting, my body relaxed slightly, swaying gently. It was a melody that immersed me deeply. Seeing an elder wanting to pay respects, I stepped aside to let her get closer. I thought, this is also a kind of mutual understanding. At such a close distance, I and the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva were in the same small space. Flowing with the chanting, my mind was filled only with the sutras, only with the present moment. My heart was warm and radiant. Going Home ~ Warm Gentleness The ceremony came to a close. The golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva needed to return to the main hall. It was the first time I had seen the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva at the Zhulin Mountain Guanyin Temple. It was small and dark, likely imbued with the incense smoke of many years. I had initially thought of taking out my phone to capture or record it. However, when I realized that the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva would pass by me, I focused solely on observing her, just wanting to feel the present moment. As the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva was carried towards me, I greeted her with my right hand and softly said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, happy birthday." As the golden statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva passed by me, tears welled up in my eyes instantly, and I stood there unable to move for a long time. It felt like being enveloped in warm light, embraced. It was as if I were being hugged by my godmother, her gentle comfort soothing me. In my heart, I said to Guanyin Bodhisattva, "I'm back, godmother." Coffee Flavor Next to the parking lot by the gate of the Zhulin Temple, there was a small coffee shop. It was started by a young man, with limited seating and no restroom. I liked the quaintness of this place and the friendliness of the owner. I asked to share a table and received a friendly response. The owner remembered me, and we talked about the proximity of the Lunar New Year to the temple, sharing perspectives and experiences. Sometimes, we all need someone to chat with, even if we're not familiar but acquainted. Such light connections are nice. Afterthought Leaving the temple, I shared the cake with my brother, sister-in-law, community guards, and the cleaning lady. Eating the cake blessed by Guanyin Bodhisattva, everyone was safe and bathed in warm light. Back at home, I wanted to write down the celebration and also find out what Guanyin Bodhisattva said to me as she passed by, which moved me to uncontrollable emotions. Even after some time had passed, I still felt like crying when I shared it with my brother, with tears in my eyes. I drew the Tarot card "Empress" again. And I cried. It was my mother. With open arms, waiting for me to rush into them, embracing me. It was my mother. Nurturing and feeding me, waiting for me to come to her. It was my mother. Warmly waiting, ready to comfort me when I rush to her. It was my mother. Offering solace and support, waiting for me to approach, ready to praise me. It was my mother.

Alyson’s 3/30 Tarot：改變 Change (1-57) 問題：我的未來日記第一週的主題 抽牌：Eight of Worlds Change 改變 https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/144950131 今日夢想實現：煮了一鍋湯圓，花了一小時散步，和朋友聊一下午 從內心萌了芽，在腦海裡顯化，畫出了好幾多燦爛美麗盛開的花。 在行動後實現，在日子裡綻放，只因自己堅定不移往前進的步伐。 「3分鐘未來日記」 「3分鐘未來日記」這本書傳授用正向的，正確的，直接的，直白的，優美的文字寫「過去式語法」的未來日記，讓人可以一天天地越來越接近夢想，進而實現。 夢想 我認為每個人都有不只一個夢想。 當還是個學生時，關於課業成績，關於友情，甚至關於愛情，每一面向都有想要的成果。 後來成為了上班族，關於工作，同事，愛情，甚至與主管間的關係，更是複雜，想要的樣子，又更多了。 不管是哪方面的夢想，大部分都是為了活出自己想要的模樣和生活的景象。 也許關於金錢，關於中樂透，關於生活。 我想透過「3分鐘未來日記」教導的方法，一天一天將自己的夢想能夠更為聚焦，更為具體。 有具體的夢想，才知道要朝哪個方向前進，才能明白中間要做那些努力與成就什麼事情。 當然，這個夢想不是〝小幸運〞，是大計畫，是攸關生活、未來，甚至是人生的。 就因為是大夢想，所以更須嚴謹一些，計畫周詳一些，衡量周密一些。 第一週主題：改變 第一週的主題是『改變Change』。 改變什麼呢？ 改變與夢想之間的關係是什麼？ 大多時候，夢想沒能實現，不是因外務、旁人干擾導致，主要關鍵因素都是在於自己。 我們的內心不夠堅定，不夠強韌，不夠具有熱血奔向夢想的勇氣。 我們會膽怯，會猶豫，會猶疑，會無法肯定。 堅信，很少是會被刻意培養的信念。 這，確實有點可惜。 就是因未來不確定，沒人敢承諾，即使是對自己。 堅持，不移，多難的理想，多高的志向。 變化，是自然，如春、夏、秋、冬。 改變，是天性，如變色龍，蛇蛻皮，毛毛蟲蛻變成蝶。 羽化，是改變的最美呈現。 變化與改變，不是要整個重頭翻過一遍。 改變的是心智能量更強大，不變的是實現夢想的中心思想。 變化的是精神氣力更專注，不變的是朝向夢想的堅定步伐。 調整與彈性，鬆弛緊度，張力有律，在朝夢的路上，不因一時過於高昂的士氣，消耗掉過多的熱忱，造成很快得就把熱情燃燒殆盡，最終熄滅，變成了夢一場。 我們的改變，得從心底挖掘，翻動，辨明與丟棄。 把心裡的土，整理整理。 撿拾起石頭，挖掘出垃圾，一併丟棄，如同毛毛蟲蛻變成蝴蝶後，原先保護的蛹，也就不再適用，帶不走，拉不起，那就放下吧。 蝴蝶的翅膀，那樣輕薄，那樣輕盈。 這是不能承載太多的負擔。 瞻前顧後，朝夢的路上窒礙難行。 朝三暮四，朝夢的路上難定羅盤。 心中的度量衡，審思忖度，分辨明白，什麼該珍惜，什麼該拋卻了。 有時候的拋下，不能說是冷情無心。 細想，一生能同舟共濟有幾人。 如此，也就能以較為淡然態度去想那些一個個的人生過客了。 改變，要改變什麼呢？ 你想好了嗎？ Alyson's 3/30 Tarot: Change Question: Theme for the first week of my future diary. Card drawn: Eight of Worlds – Change Achieved Today's Dream: Cooked a pot of glutinous rice balls, spent an hour walking, and chatted with friends all afternoon. A seed sprouts from within, manifesting in the mind, painting a picture of numerous brilliant blooms. Realized through action, blossoming in the days, all because of the unwavering steps forward. "3-Minute Future Diary" "3-Minute Future Diary" This book teaches how to write a future diary using positive, correct, direct, straightforward, and beautiful language in the past tense, allowing one to gradually approach and achieve dreams day by day. Dreams Dreams I believe everyone has more than one dream. As a student, there are desires for academic success, friendships, and even love. Later, as a working adult, desires regarding work, colleagues, love, and even relationships with supervisors become more complex, with more things desired. Regardless of the aspect of dreams, most are about living the life and having the appearance one desires. Perhaps about money, winning the lottery, or life itself. I want to use the method taught by the "3-Minute Future Diary" to focus and make my dreams more concrete day by day. With specific dreams, one knows which direction to move in and understands the efforts and achievements required along the way. Of course, this dream is not just a "small stroke of luck"; it's a big plan that affects life, the future, and even one's entire existence. Because it's a big dream, it needs to be more rigorous in planning, more detailed in execution, and more thorough in evaluation. Theme of the First Week: Change The theme of the first week is "Change." What changes? What is the relationship between change and dreams? Most of the time, dreams remain unrealized not because of external factors or interference from others but primarily due to oneself. Our inner selves lack firmness, resilience, and the courage to passionately pursue dreams. We become timid, hesitant, doubtful, and unable to affirm. Belief, rarely, is something deliberately cultivated. This, indeed, is a bit regrettable. It's because the future is uncertain, no one dares to promise, even to oneself. Persistence, unwavering, ideals in adversity, lofty aspirations. Change is natural, like the seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Change is innate, like a chameleon, shedding skin, or a caterpillar metamorphosing into a butterfly. Metamorphosis is the most beautiful presentation of change. Change and transformation don't mean starting over entirely. What changes is the mental strength becoming stronger, while the unchanging aspect is the central idea of realizing dreams. What changes is the spiritual focus becoming more concentrated, while the unchanging aspect is the steadfast steps towards dreams. Adjustment and flexibility, loosening and tightening, maintaining tension in rhythm, on the path to dreams, not allowing overly high spirits to consume too much enthusiasm too quickly, causing the flames of passion to burn out rapidly and ultimately extinguish, turning into mere dreams. Our change needs to be excavated from the depths of our hearts, overturned, discerned, and discarded. Tidy up the soil in our hearts. Pick up stones, dig out trash, and discard them all, just like after a caterpillar transforms into a butterfly, the cocoon that once protected it is no longer useful, so let it go. The butterfly's wings are so delicate, so light. They cannot bear too much burden. Hesitation and hesitation make the path to dreams difficult. Indecision makes the compass on the path to dreams uncertain. The measure in our hearts, thoughtful consideration, discernment, understanding what should be cherished and what should be let go. Sometimes letting go cannot be said to be cold-hearted. Consider how many people can accompany us through life. In this way, one can think of those transient guests of life with a more indifferent attitude. What do you want to change? Have you decided? #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Change

2024 0329 今日塔羅：駕馭者 Surfer https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/144832450 昨日的你是否有做一些回饋呢？ 你知道嗎？ 對人的微笑，就是一種回饋。 回饋，不是一定要花費金錢和時間的。 回饋，從簡單一般的日常執行，就可以讓他人感受到善和美的氣息。 昨天的我，態度和氣且帶著微笑，順手幫忙了一個人。 一位大姐分享著從神明那拿到的糖果，我也用拿到的牛札糖交換。 邀請一位老人家靠近神明一些，大家一起沾染觀世音菩薩的生日歡喜。 去到咖啡廳跟年輕老闆，像是朋友般話聊他的農曆春節開店情景。 將生日蛋糕分享給家人和住家的守衛大哥，清潔打掃的大姐，大家一起蒙受觀世音菩薩的庇佑和平安。 宇宙今日送給我們大家的祝福是「駕馭者」。 這是聖杯子牌。 聖杯是情緒，也是情感。 今日，情緒高漲，會凌駕於一切之上。 就是想跟著感覺行動。 追逐風，追逐浪花一朵朵。 控管大哥和冷靜小弟要出現。 注意 ~ 挑戰過了頭，刺激過於猛。 小心，別南牆撞了頭，過激，結果頭破血也流。 Did you give back yesterday? You know what? A smile to others is a form of giving back. Giving back doesn't always require spending money or time. Simple acts in daily life can spread kindness and beauty to others. Yesterday, I helped someone with a positive attitude and a smile. A lady shared candies she got from a temple, and I exchanged them with some sweets I had. I invited an elderly person closer to the temple, and we all celebrated the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva together. At a café, I chatted with the young owner about his experiences of opening during the Lunar New Year, like friends. I shared a birthday cake with my family, the guards, and the cleaning staff at home, as we all basked in the blessings and peace of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Today's blessing from the universe for all of us is "Surfer." This is from the Tarot deck. The Chariot represents emotions and feelings. Today, emotions will run high, surpassing everything else. It's about acting on impulse, chasing the wind, and chasing every single wave. Remember, the overseer and the cool-headed one must appear. Beware – excessive challenges and stimulation can be dangerous. Be cautious not to hit a brick wall too hard, for excessive actions may result in injury and bloodshed. #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Surfer

2024 0328 今日塔羅：報酬回饋 Reward

2024 0328 今日塔羅：報酬回饋 Reward https://dcalyson0110.pixnet.net/blog/post/144762514 今日抽到的塔羅牌是「報酬/回饋」。 這張牌是屬於地球子牌，是務實落地的美好。 今日有十顆木星大聚集的喜慶。 金錢旺旺旺，運勢紅不讓。 獲得的同時，該給予他人的報酬不可苛扣，需要回饋給他人的不可忽悠。 可別像我曾工作過的一家公司最高主管，老是在眾人面前開口承諾不願意實現的事情。 事後，大家雖都沒說過任何一句話。 背後，大家都心照不宣的在心裡畫個”X”。 承諾的實現，要對得起天，對得起他人，對得起自己的內心。 我總覺得宇宙也是由密密麻麻的無數個圓組成。 每個人，所做，所說，所思，所念，都會回應回到自己的身上。 只是我們不知道會是何時，何處，何事，何果。 但有兩件事是真理，那就是”善”與”愛”。 今天是觀世音菩薩的聖誕日。 溫柔的觀世音菩薩，生日快樂！ Today's Tarot card drawn is "Reward/Recognition." This card belongs to the Earth suit, symbolizing practical manifestations of goodness. Today brings a joyous convergence of ten Jupiter's. Financial prosperity abounds, and luck is on fire. While receiving rewards, it's crucial not to withhold what is due to others and not to deceive when giving back. Let's not be like a former high-ranking executive I once worked with, who constantly made promises in front of everyone but never intended to fulfill them. Though no one spoke a word at the time, behind the scenes, everyone silently marked an "X" in their hearts. Fulfilling promises should align with the heavens, with others, and with one's own conscience. I always feel like the universe is composed of countless interconnected circles. Everything we do, say, think, and wish for will eventually echo back to us. We just don't know when, where, how, or in what form. But two things are undeniable truths: "Goodness" and "Love." Today is the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the embodiment of compassion. Happy birthday to the gentle Guanyin Bodhisattva! #DreamCatcherTarot #Tarot #DCTarotreader #Tarotcards #BeYuSelfBOSS #BlessedDream #Alyson #Strength
