Better days are coming... 9th April 2020

Today's storytelling.
Better days are coming.

And today's song is of the same title, from Jimmy Cliff.

How apt the lyrics are for us today :
"Don't you know
Better days are coming by and by
Don't you get down hearted, don't you cry
Sorrows will be over, all our joys come over
Better days are coming by and by
It can't be this way always.
A train must come, a train must come
There must be some brighter days
We'll have fun, we'll have fun, yeah".

A message of hope if ever there was one, wouldn't you agree?

Which moves us onto our first card for today, 3 The Empress.
If we look at 3 as an angel number in the first instance:
The angel number 3 has the energy of kindness, joy, creativity, and imagination.
It represents inspiration, creation, manifestation, and growth.
It symbolises the interconnectedness of your body, mind, and spirit, and is carefully aligned with the divine energy.
In the card we see the woman with her pregnant belly, she is nurturing the birth of a whole new world.

She is in flow with nature, not against it. We see the dotted line connecting with the moon, reminding us that everything is cyclical and day always follows night. She is the Earth personified in our picture, grounding our hopes into reality.

Our second card today is the 10 of cups , twinning with 1 The magician. And what a magical scene it is , happy friends sit in a brightly coloured hammock , whilst children laugh and play on a sunny beach.A beautiful family and community feel to this card. Perhaps reminding us that better days are in fact coming .

Our final card today sees a return of the meditative King of cups.
I wonder, is he visualising the feeling and emotions of the future when we can reconnect with the outside world.... and once more laugh and play on the beach ?
This too shall pass... with time.
And keep hope...
Better days are coming.
